Translation

For those who divided their religions apart and separated into different sects, you don’t have any association with. Their matter is left up to Allah. Then, Allah will tell them about what they have done.

Tafsir

Those who falsify the Books sent by Allah (swt) through the Prophets, or change what does not suit them according to their own minds, these people come together with the groups that suit them, grouping together, breaking up their religions, saying that you have nothing to do with them, and that everyone should live the covenant they have given and keep themselves as witnesses to Allah, and that no one will be asked from anyone else.

Every soul will be held to account for what it has done. (Their affair is left only to Allah.) My Messenger, you have done your duty, you have conveyed the truth. But we are waiting for the expiry of a term that we have given to them in the lifetime of their rebellion and enmity against Allah. Then they will be returned to Allah. This is what your Lord says: He gives to every man what he earns, in full, because He is just.

(Then Allah will inform them of what they have done.) If people are able to capture the light reflected by human beings with photographs and put them on paper, is not Allah (swt) also able to freeze the light reflected by human beings with His knowledge and show it to us? Every moment of human beings is like being filmed in front of a camera. Therefore, on that day of reckoning, in the presence of Allah, Allah (swt) will show what people have done by informing them of what they have done.

What is said in the video

Surah Al-An'am, verse 159: Those who split their religion into pieces and divided into groups, you have nothing to do with them, it says.

Yes.

Of Surah Ar-Rum, to Surah Ar-Rum Yes, Al-Ankabut.

It must be verse 32, I think.

Of Surah Ar-Rum yes, verse 32 of Surah Ar-Rum, verse 32 says: Do not be among those who split their religion and became factions. Those who split their religion and became factions: among the Christians, Catholics, Protestants, those who split like this. yes, each faction exults in what it has, it says, each faction. They exult in what they have.

Now this part is very interesting. We are Muslims, we are Muslims, and we split into factions.

That one says, the path I follow is very beautiful, he says. He sees himself as superior. The other one says, I have held on to the 33rd ring. The golden ring. This is a final ring. Whoever does not hold on to it will find no relief, he says. Allah protect us. A bad mentality. That is what he says.

So we are divided into factions. But do you know what protects us? Our faith in one single god, that in our belief in Allah, from that we cannot be separated. Otherwise we have split among people. Into groups. That group does not accept this one. This group does not accept that one. Weren't we Muslims, weren't we brothers? Why don't you accept me among you? Why don't you accept me? No, you are not one of us. You stay on the side. I have lived this, lived it just like this. You are not one of us, stay on the side. Yes. Come on, can one discriminate between people in saying Allah, in remembering Allah?

I am in Germany. I saw that a hodja came to our talk. I looked at his state a bit too. His name is Abdurrahman. In Urfa. he came. He is a bit agitated. We said to the man, I hope all is well, you seem a bit agitated. What is the matter, we said. He said, I will not name that group. I serve as a hodja at such-and-such mosque, he said. Well one of the Nurcus came to me, he said. He said, can I teach children here? Of course, I said, he said, you can teach, why couldn't you? For Allah's sake you will give a service, would we say no to you? I said, he said. the man brought his reading stand and so on and is teaching a few children there. One of the mosque's officials came: who is this man, he said he said to the hodja.

He said to him: Hodja, sir, this man came to me, can I teach children, he asked. And I said, you can. Why? You said service to Allah, service to humanity, service to the religion of Islam, he said. You said he can teach, he said. Whom did you ask that you gave him authority? Is there a need to (?) in such a case, he said. Is this place, he said, (?)? Get him out of here. Ha, I said, he says. I'm supposed to throw him out, huh? I'd rather take off my robe and turban, I said, he said. I left the robe and turban there. Come on, (?) bound to Allah, I said, he said.

If this is not splitting their religion, what is it? What mentality is this? Yes. A very painful incident. Among brothers in Islam, within Islam. What does it say? Those who split their religion into pieces and divided into groups, it says, you have nothing to do with them, it says. Of course not. He is on tawhid, la ilahe illallah, on the fitra of Islam, on brotherhood, open-minded. What does Mawlana Rumi say? Come, he says, come. Whatever you are, come again.

Ours is not a lodge of despair, he says, our religion. Come. Why come? To the one God. To the Lord of the worlds, to the one sent as a mercy to the worlds, to His Messenger, to (?), to the Quran Allah sent, come, he says. If you deprive me of that, if you keep me from teaching about my Lord, if you see yourself on the right path and the other as (?), isn't this splitting into groups?

Now, they misunderstand the tariqas badly. Tariqas are paths to Allah. They are all like the fingers of one arm. Like the fingers of one arm, like this. Take this as one tariqa, take this as one tariqa, take this as one tariqa. like this, all unite in one arm, they unite at the top. But these people have made them sprout; the place leading to that one arm, they have changed its way.

They have led it astray. A tariqa cannot be like this. A path to Allah cannot be like this. Yes. The path to Allah

is the verses. Once you step outside them, you are finished with your nafs and desires.

Yes, you have nothing to do with them, it says, no connection with them. Their matter rests only with Allah. Their matter rests with Allah. Then Allah will inform them of what they did, it says. O son of man, O man! O mankind, you, the human I created honourable and gave this mind! With your nafs and desires you will carry out fine exploitation in My way. You will consider yourself on the highest path. You will use My name and exploit people's consciences. Is that so, He says? Is that so? Your life in that world, your life within that lifespan, you who feel unaccountable, He says, did you think it would not be questioned by anyone? He says.

That day's punishment, that day's questioning, is very severe. To guard against it, to fear it, so that from that day's questioning you can be safe, you will never compromise on Allah, never compromise on Allah's verses. You will not look down on your Muslim brothers, your Muslim brothers. You will embrace them with their shortcomings. With their shortcomings, because we are all lacking. If you look for my shortcomings, how many shortcomings you have. If he looks for the other's shortcomings, how many the other has. So if I say I am without shortcomings, you would have denied Allah's verse. Yes.

Therefore, the nafs and its desires drive a person into ruin, make him follow Satan's footsteps.

Those who distorted the books Allah Almighty sent with the prophets, or who changed what did not suit them according to their own minds. These people forming groups by joining with groups that suit them, and splitting the religion in their hands; by saying you have nothing to do with them, it shows that everyone is to live by the covenant they gave and hold Allah as witness over themselves, and that no one will be questioned for anyone else. Yes, no one is questioned for anyone else. every soul will be called to account for what it did itself. Every soul is called to account for what it did. So their matter rests only with Allah.

My beloved, you have done your duty. You conveyed the truth. But their rebellion against Allah and their enmity, within the life they live, the term We have given them, We wait for it to run out. Then they (?) to Allah. Your Lord, being just, gives everyone what they earned in full, He decrees. In full. Every soul, without suffering any injustice. With the good deeds of an atom's weight and the sins of an atom's weight, in full, it will be called to account in the presence of Allah Almighty. And today no one will be wronged, no injustice done, it says, everyone will be given exactly the recompense of their deeds, it says.

Yes. Then Allah will inform them of what they did. If people capture the rays that people emit with photographs and can reflect them onto paper, is Allah Almighty too not able to freeze the rays people emit with His knowledge and show them to us? Today when a plane flies in the sky, at high altitude it travels at minus twenty, thirty, forty. As you go up in the sky, the temperature drops. How does heat arise? The sun's ultraviolet rays, those atomic rays, strike the earth. As particles, when those atomic lights hit the earth, those bodies, an explosion occurs. At the place of that explosion heat arises.

So the flatlands and plains are warmer; as you go toward the mountains, the sun's atomic rays, going up toward the mountaintops, because they are pointed, with less explosion produce less heating. At heights those explosions go to minus 30, 40, 50, 60 or so. When the plane goes there, the lava coming out behind it, kerosene engines, those engines burn kerosene. That lava coming out of the engines behind, the exhaust lava, freezes there, forms a trail. The trail freezes there. Likewise Allah Almighty freezes these rays you emit and, from your childhood to the Day of Judgment, passes everything before you in seconds.

Yes.

Is it not possible for Allah Almighty to freeze the rays people emit with His knowledge and show them to us? Every moment of a person is as if filmed before a camera. Therefore, in Allah's presence, on this Day of Reckoning, people's deeds Allah Almighty will make known to them, showing what they did.
