Amongst Our creation, there are always people who lead towards the Truth and who establish justice with the Truth.
Tafsir
(Do they think that they can extinguish the Light of Allah with the blowing of their mouths?) (Allah will complete His Light until the Day of Resurrection.) Allah declares in one of His Verses that these Worlds are programmed and that in every age there will be a people among the people who will come until the Day of Resurrection who will announce the Verses of Allah to the people, and that this is the absolute power of the worlds He has created. Again, according to the verse (We do not hold anyone responsible for that which We do not make known), Allah (swt) declares that until the Day of Resurrection there will come a people who will entrust such a right, and that these people will deal with the justice of Allah on earth, and that they will make the right known to the people by entrusting it to them. The Prophet (PBUH) said the following hadith from the secret of this verse: "The scholar of my ummah is like the Prophet of the tribe of Israel." The duty of the Prophets is to introduce the truth to the people and to inform them of the Verses of Allah. Since Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) was the Prophet of Hatemen, meaning that no Prophet will come after him, Allah (swt) will not leave the worlds without a head, so He will send scholars to announce Himself and to make the truth known. This hadith explains this verse and explains that people who are steeped in the knowledge of Allah (Verrasihu) will come until the Day of Resurrection and that they will tell people about Allah with the Verses of Allah.
In another hadith, he said, "A group of my ummah will be the ones who will tell the commandment of Allah (swt) in the truth until the Day of Resurrection comes.
This group means: They are people who have reached the level of Nafsi Mutmainnah, who have been molded with Allah's will and Allah's knowledge to the point of being the heir of the Prophet, who have reached the level of Ilmel yakin, as the verse says (verrasihu), and who are above these levels, marziyye Aynel yakin or safiye Hakkel yakin.

Surah Al-A'raf, verse 181. From the verse: among those We created, a nation that always guides to the truth and carries out justice with truth exists, it says. It doesn't point to 'Me': 'from those I created'. 'From those I created' — since Allah created, since it is the Essence speaking, 'from those We created' it says. To the truth guiding, yes, to the truth — let's not say guiding; from (?), showing the way of truth and carrying out justice with truth, a nation exists. Allah Almighty's verses always confirm one another. This confirms the following verse. Allah will complete His light until the Day of Judgment, it says.
They thought they would put out Allah's light with the blowing of their mouths. Allah will complete His light until the Day of Judgment. So Allah Almighty will raise scholars over time. Scholars — since no prophet will come again — 'the scholar of my community is like a prophet of the people of Israel', according to that hadith, and 'the passing of your scholars to the hereafter is like the sun going and darkness coming' — the people He spoke of, Allah Almighty will raise them, and will have them explain, on truth, in the light of the verses, to people. Yes. And in this way, through the scholars He raises, He will have these superstitions that entered the religion removed, and Allah will complete His light until the Day of Judgment, and on truth, on truth, (?) to people, carrying out justice with truth, a nation will of course exist.
Otherwise Allah Almighty would have left the world to itself. So from this we also understand that the world is not left to itself. People are not (?) unattended by their Lord. Just as every state has a law and a ruler, the universe too has a ruler. That ruler — just as the rulers of that state (?) with that nation, the owner of the universe is likewise side by side with His creatures.
Allah Almighty in a verse: did they think they would put out Allah's light with the blowing of their mouths? Allah will complete His light until the Day of Judgment. So it tells that these worlds are programmed, and that in every age, among the people to come until the Day of Judgment, there will be a community that makes Allah's verses heard by people, it states.
Again, Allah Almighty, according to His verse 'We (?) do not hold anyone responsible', declares that until the Day of Judgment such a nation that delivers the truth will come, that these people on earth will (?) with Allah's justice, and will make the truth known by delivering it to people.
The Prophet too, from the secret of this verse, said this hadith: The scholar of my community is like a prophet of the Children of Israel. The duty of prophets is to make people know the truth and to make known Allah's verses. Since Muhammad is the Seal of the Prophets, that is, since no other prophet will come after him, Allah Almighty too, since He will not leave the worlds without a head, scholars who make His essence heard, who (?) the truth, He will send. So this hadith explains this verse. In the seventh verse of Surah Al Imran, where it says ve'r-râsihûne, it explains that people kneaded by Allah's command will come until the Day of Judgment, and that they will explain Allah to people with Allah's verses.
Yes, people pursue knowledge. With Arabic, to people they try to explain things, but knowledge is not enough to open the Quran's knowledge, the Quran's verses. And to someone who doesn't know Arabic, he says: who are you? He has Arabic, after all; he thinks he himself knows. He forgets this verse. Because he lacks knowledge, of course. We sent every Prophet in the language of his own people, it says. Look, it doesn't say in Arabic; it says We sent in the language of his own people. In this case, if Allah Almighty, for that nation, from among the people of its own nation, a person raises, shows him the meaning of the verses, in spiritual states, in an inner state, teaches him the Quranic knowledge in the necessary way and gives him wisdom — is Arabic required?
People don't know many worlds. And because they don't know, they judge by their minds. And in this way they come to judge by superstitions. What we explain is the meaning of the verses, knowledge on truth, on truth. They don't know what partial free will is. If they knew, they would not (?) Allah Almighty. They would not say what they say, that Allah Almighty puts whom He wills into Paradise and whom He wills into Hell, they would not. Again, they don't know the Quran's knowledge, in this way: 'Allah, it is hoped, will do this like this.' Because they don't know this verse either, they fall into denial; because they don't know, of course. In fact they are not denying.
There is not a single living being to come until the Day of Judgment whose doings Allah Almighty does not know. They don't know Allah Almighty's covenant. Allah gave a pledge, a promise, and went back on His word. How nicely they describe Allah Almighty! That Allah Almighty created, that He made a covenant with them, that in this covenant no one could (?) — how beautifully He proves it with this verse, Allah Almighty. If We do not will, you cannot will. Even if you know Arabic, the meanings of these verses do you know? I don't know Arabic, but my Lord raised me and showed me His knowledge, gave wisdom, and very well, if you open the verses with Arabic, whether it is a verse or not, I understand; you cannot understand.
You cannot understand. If you take Allah as 'as He wills, whom He wills into Paradise, whom He wills into Paradise He puts', there is no such verse. That's as much as you understand.
Yes. We are obliged to say these things. Because let us know knowledge well. Let us know Quranic knowledge well. We explain with the verses of the Truth anyway. That is, the verses' times are coming, and we speak accordingly.
The Prophet (peace be upon him), from the secret of this verse, said this hadith. The scholar of my community is like a prophet of the Children of Israel. The duty of prophets is to make people know the truth and to make known Allah's verses. Yes. Now,
one of the scholars says this:
Those who know three hadiths are scholars. Even those who know one hadith are scholars.
In this case, people load themselves up with hadiths. Hadiths. They load up, then they say we are hadith scholars — for you to be a hadith scholar, which verse, which hadith corresponds to which verse — you will see this. You, spiritually, spiritually, from your Lord, will see the meaning of the verses, or from your Lord the verses will be explained to your heart through inspiration, through inspiration, and within that inspiration, that the hadith the Messenger of Allah said corresponds to that verse they will make known to you, you will know. And you will have become a hadith scholar; there you become a hadith scholar. As we explain here, like now: this verse is the counterpart of this hadith.
In the address Elestü bi-rabbiküm too: Allah created the spirits in darkness, scattered some of His light on them; whoever received from it (?), whoever could not receive from this light lost the way, (?). This is the counterpart of the address Elestü bi-rabbiküm. The counterparts of (?) verses: hadiths. If you don't know these, collect as many hadiths as you like. If you can't distinguish the hadiths, can't tell this is authentic or this is fabricated, even if you've loaded thousands of hadiths on your back, you live carrying them as a burden. You don't count as a scholar. Don't you get the reward?
You do. I have deeds, I have intention. I have zeal for the hadiths. Of course you get the reward. Because deeds depend on intention. But you're not a scholar. We show you the paths so you can become a scholar. So you can become a hadith scholar. Yes. Since Allah Almighty will not leave the worlds without a head, He will send scholars who make His essence heard, who (?) the truth. So this hadith explains this verse. Where it says ve'r-râsihûne, it explains that people kneaded with Allah's knowledge will come until the Day of Judgment and that they will explain Allah to people with Allah's verses.
Again, in a hadith: a group from my community will, until the Day of Judgment comes, stand on truth and explain Allah Almighty's command, he said. Yes. This hadith. This too is the counterpart of this verse. Again, in a hadith: a group from my community will, until the Day of Judgment comes, stand on truth and explain Allah Almighty's command, he said. So this is the counterpart of this verse. Among those We created there is always a nation that leads to the truth with truth and carries out justice with truth, it says. Here is the verse, and here is the hadith. Yes. If you don't know these, how will you be a hadith scholar?
If you don't know these, you'll accept fabrications and superstitions as hadith and slander the Messenger of Allah, and after that if you set out to write a refutation — a refutation, wow, wow, look at that, he's become a scholar and writes a refutation. If you write a refutation, you write it against yourself.
Yes. Again, in a hadith: a group from my community will, until the Day of Judgment comes, stand on truth and explain Allah Almighty's command, he said. What is meant by this group: those who have risen to the nafs-i mutmainne, who, to the point of being heirs of the Prophet, are kneaded with Allah's will and Allah's knowledge, after mutmainne: Nafs-i raziye, ilmel yakin. Yes, not at mutmainne. He will rise above mutmainne. He will enter through that door of nafs-i raziye, ilmel yakin. He will be the counterpart of the verse ve'r-râsihûne. Yes, to the point of being heirs of the Prophet, with Allah's will, with Allah's knowledge kneaded, in the state the verse calls ve'r-râsihûne, who reached the rank of ilmel yakin, and the ranks above it, marziye, aynel yakin, or safiye, hakkel yakin — people who hold these ranks.
We haven't opened this part up much. The kutb-ul azam mujtahid who comes once every century. The kutb-ul azam who comes once every two hundred years. Yes. So Allah, these — with these, until the Day of Judgment, the superstitions that entered the religion, We remove.
