But when Allah gave them a righteous child, they started associating partners with Allah, in what Allah had given to them. But Allah is exalted above the things they are associating with Allah.
Tafsir
Allah (swt) bestowed children upon Hadrat Adam (as) and Hadrat Eve (as). From these children and after them came people who were rebellious and associating partners with Allah. They made themselves witnesses in this world against themselves, their surroundings and Allah (swt) because of the covenants they had made before.
Allah (swt) makes these worlds unfold as He has programmed them. In this course, He has given only the wills of people into their own hands. Although Allah, Who writes their desires and wishes as their destiny, knows what people will do in the world, in order to prevent any creature from questioning and inquiring Allah, Allah leaves the human soul alone with itself by creating all kinds of events that come to mind. They make themselves witnesses to Allah (swt) through the events of good deeds and sins.
Later, these children began to worship idols. These children were made to look like the children of these idols and they gave them names such as Abdi Menaf, Abdi Uzza, Abdi Shams. Allah (swt) is exempt from such incidents and the shirk they practiced. Allah (swt) has no equal, no like, and no partner. He is the only One, the Owner and Master of His creation. Allah is the Most High. It does not fit into the human mind and imagination. However, since Allah (swt) has willed that His Essence should be known by human beings, He has equipped human beings with the blessing of a mind sufficient to know Allah (swt). Beyond this intellect is reserved for Allah (swt). He is sovereign over all His creatures with His attribute of knowledge. He has wisdom in His knowledge. Allah has not created anything out of nothing. In this respect, Allah is free from imperfect attributes. It exists with the attribute of Godhood.
What is said in the video
When Allah gave them a righteous child, then later, from this child He had given them, people associated partners with Allah. But Allah is exalted above what they associate with Him, it says. Yes. But when Allah gave them a righteous child, it says, from this child He had given them, from this child, people later associated partners with Allah. But Allah is exalted above what they associate with Him. Allah Almighty granted Adam (peace be upon him) and our mother Eve children. Every year, by the power of our Lord, our mother Eve gave birth to twins, a girl and a boy. This year's girl and boy would marry next year's girl and boy.
This year's boy would marry next year's girl, and next year's boy this year's girl. In this way, both the incompatibility of hearts and with the qualities that Allah Almighty, by His knowledge and power, had given them, or else with qualities in their blood like group zero, group A, group B, (?) plus, negative and the like, He brought them forth. Along with those blood groups, through people's incompatibility, so that no disabled children would come from one another in future generations, let's say, coming from the same loins, from the generation, the children of generations matching in blood group become disabled. So, to separate them, Allah Almighty also, by changing the blood groups in their (?) and their genetic genes, brought forth people in this way.
With that power He gave them through His knowledge, He divided people into various groups.
From these children, and after them, arose people who rebelled against Allah and associated partners with Him. Because of the covenants they had given earlier, in the world they themselves, themselves were held as witnesses before those around them and before Allah Almighty, and departed. Everything. Yes.
So no one in this world is everlasting. Each of us is a traveler in this world. And in the end there is a point that traveler will reach. Every soul shall taste death. And according to His word 'your return is to Me', that traveler one day will finish his road, finish his city, and finally, from the first world to which I came as a guest, to the eternal hereafter, to the eternal home that is the hereafter, he will migrate. So here, in order for people to do good deeds and win the abode of bliss of the hereafter, one will submit to Allah. One will be of the community of His Beloved, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
One will be bound by the word of Allah Almighty. One will act within the noble rulings our Lord has made known to us. And by making the best use of this world, one will enter among the sultans of the hereafter. Allah Almighty does not say, 'you work, what is it to Me'. He wills that His Being be known. He says: (?) the One who created you. Who created you? My Lord. Allah created me. Then He said, follow My prophets. We accepted them all. Then He said, value My word. Never turn a deaf ear to it. Praise be to Allah. You said, we are bound by that too. We said so. Then: I created you honored above the worlds.
You are bound by it, but if the worship you perform does not benefit you, it is a burden on you. So struggle with your nafs, your nafs, He said. Praise be to Allah. You struggled with your nafs too. What did you do? Because you were created as the noblest of creatures, because you were created very honored, it will be worthy of it. It will be worthy of that humanity. For you to be able to act that way, that animal nafs, that bodily nafs, you will bring under your own rule and make the best use of it. In the best way. You will bring it under (?), you will make the best use of it. You will bring your nafs under your rule.
If you can't, then, as (?) said a moment ago, that nafs, step by step, drags you into the torment of the hereafter. So if you rule over your nafs and submit to your Creator for Allah's sake, if you judge by His verses, it fits the purpose of creation of Allah who created you honored above the worlds. If you submit to Allah Almighty, are grateful for what comes from Him and are not ungrateful, Allah Almighty will put you among the sultans of the hereafter, we said. Is this hard? He asks nothing of you. He says, struggle with your own state. If you struggle with your own state, defeat your nafs and become an upright person, you will be honored among people too.
You will be a loved and respected person among people too. Because He created you honored, among those He created in the best way, He wants His creatures to embrace one another, to love one another for Allah's sake, Allah Almighty does. He asks nothing hard of you. And in this case, if a person acts with ego, with pride and arrogance, acts with hostility toward the other, lays traps for him, how is that? A human.
Never. A human. Would a human be hostile to a human? So if he cannot kill his nafs (?), if he is not bound by Allah's verses, if, through his own whims, through things like fame and glory (?), toward those around him, um, (?) he acts out of jealousy, if he is seized by self-importance (?), then through Satan's deceiving him, through following the tracks of Taghut, he becomes a seeker of Allah Almighty's Hell, (?) of torment. Is it worth it? Such conduct, for the torment in the hereafter. Is it worth it? So a person will know the purpose of his creation, and to be able to protect that honored place in the best way, not what his nafs desires but what his Lord desires he will carry out. He will carry out his Lord's command.
Yes.
Allah Almighty makes these worlds proceed the way He programmed them. Within this course, He has placed only people's own wishes in their own hands. Allah Almighty, who writes their wishes and desires for them as destiny, although He knows what people will do in this world, so that no created being questions Allah Almighty, Allah creates every kind of event that comes to mind and leaves the human nafs alone with itself. The human nafs. Why does He do so? Because He gives it partial free will. He creates it very honored, and because He gave it a part of His own spirit, with the capability of that spirit, the human, (?) to His Being, by his own decisions is held before Allah Almighty as one answerable to Allah.
So He also left man's will free. Because He gave from His own spirit. Through good deeds and sins, they make themselves bear witness before Allah Almighty. And man, through the acts he does. Yes.
Then these children began to worship idols. That is, those coming from Adam's lineage, who earlier at Qalu Bala, and those He calls ashab-ı meş'emeti ma ashab-ı meş'eme, the people of the left, the people of the left, later um
and those people of the left He calls ashab-ı meş'emeti, surely they too will come to earth. They will make Allah Almighty witness what kind of people they are, and depart, you see. So those people too will come to earth, from the lineage of the children who came from Adam, of course. Then these children began to get attached to idols. These children were presented as children of these idols, and to these children, Abd Manaf, that is, the child of that idol. Abd Manaf, child of Manaf. That is, he created him. Abd al-Uzza, child of Uzza. they gave names like Abd Shams. Allah Almighty is far above such things, above the shirk they committed.
May Allah protect us. May Allah protect us. So those who long before turned their backs on Allah, waiting for the Lord of their imagination, who, per Allah Almighty's verse that they would not see their Lord, turned their backs on Allah; per the verses where He says, 'My Beloved, their denying you, do not mind it; in their time they betrayed Me too', those who, um, did not recognize Allah Almighty long before in the barzakh, waiting for the Lord of their own imagination, waiting for a Lord who would act according to their own wishes and desires and fulfill their wishes, these wretched people, when they come to earth, with the same characters, the same inclinations, hoping for help from the idols they carved with their own hands and associated with Allah, see themselves as their children.
But Allah, since Allah Almighty willed that His Being be known by people, He also endowed people with the blessing of reason, enough to know Allah Almighty. Enough to know Allah Almighty.
What lies beyond this reason belongs to Allah Almighty. With His attribute of the All-Knowing, He rules over all His creatures. He is wise in His knowledge. Allah has created nothing in vain. Allah, here
let's put an H. Yes. Allah has created nothing in vain. In this respect, Allah is free of any deficient attribute. He subsists with His attribute of Godhood. Yes. Allah Almighty creates nothing in vain. That is, they put it like this: He creates nothing 'abez', they say. Let's not say abez. He creates nothing in vain. Yes.
