Depend on and trust in Allah Who is the Eternal, and Who is immortal. Exalt Allah with praise. It is sufficient that Allah knows the sins of Allah’s (all) servants.

Tafsir

Allah is subsistent with His Essence. He is the Before and the After, the Dhahir and the West. (Huwl al-Awwal al-Awwal wa-lzzahiru wa-l batin) Allah is (Hay) and His creatures exist with Allah. All creation is in need of Allah. Allah is (Hu). He is the One who exists by His Essence. In other words, He is self-existent, immortal and eternal. Eternity ends in Him. Death is created by Allah.

So whoever is with Allah, believes in Him, relies on Him, trusts in Him and takes refuge in Him, has attained the eternal bliss of the Hereafter. Since Allah's promise is true, Allah will bestow His blessings on such people with the eternal pleasure and enjoyment of an eternal life.

Allah is worthy to be praised and praised. Because Allah created life and death. He provided our sustenance. He placed all kinds of blessings at the disposal of human beings. Allah has made human beings as His addressees and created them as equal to Him. People cannot thank Allah enough. Then, no being is as close to human beings as Allah. Allah says, "We are closer to you than your jugular vein. In this respect, Allah is our everything, our life, our existence, our bliss and our Lord from whom we will find eternal healing. Without Him life is unthinkable and without Him there is no life.

Whoever is with him and glorifies him and praises him, these are the people of salvation.

When people who seek refuge in Allah and put their trust in Allah ask for forgiveness from Allah (swt), Allah (swt) covers their sins with His attribute of Settar and forgives them with His attribute of Gaffar. Those who seek forgiveness from Allah (swt) will find Allah (swt) very forgiving and forgiving when Allah (swt), who is abundant in forgiveness and forgiveness, forgives their sins, and when people are faithful in their repentance without revealing their sins, they will find Allah (swt) very forgiving and forgiving. Therefore, it is enough that Allah knows our sins, not others.

What is said in the video

Surah Al-Furqan, verse 58: In Allah, the deathless and ever-living, trust and rely. Yes. Ve tevekkel ale'l-hayyi'llezî. Put your trust in Allah. Hayy, Allah the Living. Lâ yemût, deathless. Ve sebbih bi hamdih, remember Him, that is, praise Him. Praise the deathless Allah. Yes. Trust and rely on Allah, who is deathlessly living. Glorify Him with praise. It is enough that He knows the sins of His servants, it says. It is enough that He knows the sins of His servants.

I will say in the universe, I will not say on earth. There is no atom, no place, say, in the universe where Allah Almighty is not with His creatures.

Allah subsists by His own being. He is the First and the Last, the Outward and the Inward. Hüve'l-evvelü ve'l-âhiru ve'z-zâhiru ve'l-bâtın. Allah is Hayy, living. Hayy means living. One meaning of it is the one who, ever since creating them, gives life to His creatures. But it means one who has no need of His creatures. That is the meaning of Hayy.

His creatures subsist through Allah. All created things are in need of Allah. Allah is Hu. As one says, "Allah, Hu." Hu. The meaning of Hu is: He who subsists by His own being, who by no one was created, who did not beget and was not begotten. Subsisting by His own existence, by His own being. That is, the One who exists.

That is, existing by Himself, He is deathless and endless. Endlessness ends in Him.

Endlessness, too, ends in Him. An endlessness may perhaps have an end, but Allah Almighty has no end. Endlessness, too, ends in Him. Endlessness ends in Him. And death, Allah created. Yes. So whoever is with Allah, so... shall we read the first sentence once more? Let's read it as we wrote it here. Allah subsists by His own being. He is the First and the Last, the Outward and the Inward. Hüve'l-evvelü ve'l-âhiru ve'z-zâhiru ve'l-bâtın. Allah is Hayy. His creatures subsist through Allah. All created things are in need of Allah. Allah is Hu. He is the One who subsists by His own being. That is, existing by Himself, He is deathless and endless.

Endlessness ends in Him. And death, Allah created.

So whoever is with Allah, believes in Him and relies on Him, trusts in Him, takes refuge in Allah, that person has attained the eternal bliss of the hereafter. Yes. Since Allah's promise is true, Allah Almighty will bestow on such people an endless life's endless joy and delight and its blessings.

This world is temporary. Here we are in a guesthouse.

Allah is worthy of being praised and glorified. Because Allah created life and death. He provided our sustenance. He placed every kind of blessing at people's service. Allah held people as those He addresses and created them as the noblest of creatures. Now here we touch on a verse. He placed every kind of blessing at people's service. Allah Almighty says in His verse: If you tried to count the blessings I have given you, you could not count them, He says. Yes. You cannot count them.

However much people thank Allah Almighty, He is pleased. Then, no being is as close to people as Allah. Allah Almighty says: We are closer to you than your jugular vein. For this reason Allah is our everything, our life, our existence, our bliss, and our Lord in whom we will find eternal healing. Life without Him is unthinkable, and without Him there is no living anyway.

If today an unbeliever says, I live without Him, don't believe it. If he lived without Him, he would be deprived of Allah's sustenance, and then it would be impossible for him to live. They constantly, it says, with their tongues tell lies, it says. With their tongues. Yes. So then, Hasbünallahu ve ni'me'l-vekîl, ve ni'me'l-mevlâ, ve ni'me'n-nasîr. There is no companion as fine as Allah, no master and support as fine. Whoever is with Him and, glorifying Him, offers praise and thanks, these are the ones who have attained salvation. When people who take refuge in Allah and trust in Allah ask Allah Almighty for pardon and forgiveness, Allah Almighty covers their sins with His attribute Settar, and with His attribute Gaffar He pardons. When Allah Almighty, who is generous to those seeking pardon and forgiveness from Him and (?) in pardon, forgives these people's sins, when people, without disclosing their sin, stay faithful to their repentance, they will find Allah very forgiving and pardoning.

For this reason we say: it is enough that Allah, not others, knows our sins. If we repent of the sins we have committed, and after we repent, we later disclose our sin, Allah Almighty, about that person, sends down this verse. We do not love one who discloses his sin, He says.

Why (?) the one who discloses his sin?

When he discloses his sin... before disclosing it, let's say, he asked Allah Almighty for pardon and forgiveness for the sin, he repented. And Allah Almighty accepted his repentance. Because He says: let Us accept repentance abundantly. Later the person (?) the sin he had committed. Does a person boast of his sin? He does. A person goes and commits adultery, then goes on his own whim and tells people: at such-and-such place I did this, I did that, I did this, he says. Or someone swindles someone. Then he comes and, off his own head, (?), says: a sucker, he says, a fool I found, and I swindled him like this, he says.

Yes. I do not love one who discloses his sin like this, He says. Why? You sinned, you knew your helplessness, you came and asked Me for repentance, and I granted your repentance, I covered it, He says. Well, now when you disclose your sin... I had wiped out your repentance, He says. Do you now want, He says, to make Me look like a liar? He says.

In that case, since Allah Almighty knows anyway what he did, He strikes over it with a yellow pen. Well, it shows underneath. Do it, He says.

Yes.
