All faces (of people) have bowed down to (Allah Who is) Hayy (eternally Alive) and Qayyum (Self-Sustainer of Life). And those who are loaded with persecution are certainly ruined.
Tafsir
Allah is the one most worthy of reverence and respect. For He is the One who created us out of nothing and gave us life. Therefore, all faces, i.e. human beings, bow down to Allah, who is alive and sovereign over all things. Allah is eternal and everlasting, He is alive. He is sovereign over all that He has created, and there is not a particle outside His dominion. In this respect, the creatures bow down to their Creator with reverence and respect.
And the oppressed are truly miserable. For there is no one other than Allah who can decide in Allah's place and save those who are burdened with oppression.
The misery of these wrongdoers is that they do not believe in Allah and the Hereafter and live in the swamp of disbelief. Those who disobey Allah's commands, who follow their ego and their devils, who follow the tagut, who say that we will not be tormented for more than a few days, who make decisions for Allah, who associate partners with Allah, who commit treachery and slander, who struggle to abolish Allah's true religion, who persecute those who live Islam, these are the ones who are burdened with injustice. Those who prefer the life of this world to the life of the Hereafter and thus expose themselves to torment in the Hereafter, their eternal home of bliss.
When these people realize that Allah's promise is true, when they realize that on the Day of Reckoning they will not be able to get away from what they have done, when they realize that they are sinners, these people are miserable. When they realized that they no longer had a savior, they were left alone in misery.
What is said in the video
Surah Ta-Ha, verse 111 All faces, people, have bowed and bent their necks before Allah, the Living, the Ruler over all. All faces. And whoever bears injustice has truly become wretched. Now pay attention. To the verse. All faces. That is, people.
These people, equipped with the attribute of essence — however much Allah Almighty has given, of His essence, a part to man and held His essence as addressee to people, or held people as addressees of His essence — have bowed before Allah, the Living, the Ruler over all, and bent their necks. That is, the absolute ruler of people, their creator, is Allah. So all faces have bowed before Him, bowed. Necks have been bent. We have held Allah as sublime, as great. But who are these? Even if the unbelievers also bend their necks, this word concerns the Muslims. What does it say? Let us read it once more.
Let us emphasize here that it concerns the Muslims. All faces, people, have bowed and bent their necks before Allah, the Living, the Ruler over all. Bent their necks. These concern the Muslims.
Why the Muslims? Even if the unbeliever has bent his neck, inside he is in rebellion. If he had truly bent his neck, Allah, by the verse "if only they had known Me here", after some time, when their punishment in hell had ended, would admit them to paradise too and do away with hell. Whereas paradise (?) hell is everlasting. Now we come to the second meaning. And whoever bears injustice has truly become wretched. Even though they bent their necks, they are in rebellion at heart. And with this rebellion, they, those who bear injustice, have truly become wretched, it says. How beautiful the verses are.
If we can understand them, of course. Very beautiful verses to be understood. And before these verses, showing our love for our Lord, we cannot hold back. We cannot hold back from declaring it. In the face of His greatness, we are at a loss how to fulfill our duty of servanthood to Him anyway. Yes.
Allah is the one most worthy of reverence and respect. Because He is the one who brought us into being from nothing and granted us a life. Therefore all faces, that is, people, before Allah, the Living, the Ruler over all, have bowed and bent their necks. Since Allah is without beginning and without end, He is the Living. He is the Ruler over everything He created. Not even an atom is outside His rule. Therefore the created bend their necks before their Creator in veneration and respect and bow in His presence.
And those who bear injustice have truly become wretched. Because there is no one other than Allah to decide in Allah's place and, standing up for those who bear injustice, save them. The wretchedness of those who bear injustice comes from their not believing in Allah and the hereafter in this world, living in the swamp of kufr. Those who oppose Allah's commands, those who, following their nafs and their devils, chase after the taghut, those who, saying (?) will not touch us for more than a few days, decide in Allah's place, those who associate partners with Allah, those who betray and slander, those who, to abolish Allah's true religion, struggle, those who wrong the people who live Islam.
These have truly loaded themselves with injustice. Preferring the worldly life they live to the hereafter, they are the ones who, in that home of eternal bliss, the hereafter, leave themselves exposed to punishment. Yes. When these people see that Allah's promise is true, when on that day of reckoning they understand that they can no longer escape what they have done, when they realize that they themselves are sinners, then these have become wretched. When they understand that they no longer have a savior, they have been left alone in wretchedness. Because when Allah Almighty, in the hereafter, withdraws His mercy from them, they will be left with no one and alone.
No one will intercede for them either. Yes.
