The Owner of the functioning in existence, the Owner of all attributes, the one who holds all beings is Allah… The entire universe came into being from His light… He is the one who holds the entire universe in unity… Nothing in the heavens and the earth is separate from Him… He is the One who keeps existence alive, who persist ever… He is closer to His servant than carotid artery…
He is the One who shows His face from all existence…
It is the One who presents the human body and every being as a book… The book we call the Quran is the book of the universe… The Quran means something that is read. Everything in this universe is a letter that can be read. A flower, an insect, a drop of water, a cell are all created in a readable way…
This book was not sent down to Prophet Muhammad from the sky… Prophet Muhammad conveyed to us the revelation that he read from the inner world of the book of the universe…
The book we call the Holy Quran is the transmission of the Sublime words of Allah from the heart of Prophet Muhammad to us… Allah has presented the entire universe to His servant as a book. The entire universe has been presented to us as the Quran, that is, as something to be read…
It has not been sent down or invented, it has been presented as written tablets from all existence, line by line… The book that was told to “Read” by the Prophet Muhammad and all people is the book of the universe and the book of man’s own existence…
That beautiful person, day and night, always turned to Allah without stopping; he read the book of the universe at every moment and conveyed what he read to us… The Prophet Muhammad showed us where and how to read…
He informed us that the book to be read is the book of the universe, the book of the body… He informed us that all the truths we seek are written line by line in the book of the universe…
Here is the book we call the Mushaf-i Sharif, the sublime information that the beautiful man Prophet Muhammad read and conveyed with spiritual longing from the sublime world of the book of the universe, which is Ummu’l-Kitâb… What Prophet Muhammad read is the revelation of Allah…
Allah reveals from the entire universe at every moment…
All existence has come into being with His revelation, and continues with His revelation… Allah is the guide… Allah guides from every being with the wisdom that is the manifestation of His name ‘Alim’…
The beautiful people we call the Messenger and the Prophet have conveyed to us what they read from the book of the universe, which is the book of Allah…
The book of the universe can be read with the mind and consciousness given to every human being… Some read a line, some read a page… If reading is done with love, contemplation, condescension, and submission, the book of existence opens itself… Our meaning study lasted nearly twenty years… There were many parts in the meanings we read that disturbed our hearts… Does Allah get angry, rage, curse His servant? …
Does He say things like, be destroyed, die, be despicable apes, be stone, be iron, brainless, bastard ?… We kept questioning ourselves that does He lead astray whom He wills and guide whom He wills, sends lightning and strikes whom He wills, if He wishes you harm, makes you deaf and blinds your eyes, etc.?
We always wondered if those who translate it as a meaning convey it to us like this…
To give an example;
Surah Abasa 17: Kutile el insan ma ekfere hu…
The Religious Affairs Administration Translation: Down with the (disbelieving) man! How ungrateful he is!
Tawhid-i Quran Translation: The man who ignores the truth wrongs himself. We saw that Allah does not say to His servant; damn, ungrateful, die, be cursed, etc., but those who translate it conveyed like this…
We have always been disturbed by the fact that the existing translations portray the beautiful man Prophet Muhammad as a womanizer…
We have worked hard for nearly twenty years to prepare the translation, we have worked word by word, we have completed our translation by researching the original meanings of the words…
A translation is an effort to translate the meaning in a sentence into our own language as closely as possible.
The verses of the Quran never contradict each other. If they seem to contradict, either the correct translation has not been made or we have not understood what is being said there. Those people of heart from Prophet Adam to Prophet Muhammad have always left as a legacy that we should read ourselves and the universe…
None of them founded a separate religion…
Prophet Moses did not establish a religion called Judaism, Prophet Jesus did not establish a religion called Christianity, Prophet Muhammad did not establish a religion called Islam…
They all said that religion belongs to Allah. Religion is the Laws of existence of Being… Sunna is the Laws of functioning of Being…
A person who knows religion becomes the most beautiful of the stations, “Islam”, that is, peace and tranquility…
A person who is an Islamic person cannot harm even a hair…
Those beautiful people from Prophet Adam to Prophet Muhammad were all on Islam…
In other words, they were Muslims…
Muslim means someone who is on Islam, that is, someone who is on peace and tranquility. Wherever in the world a person is in peace and tranquility, that person is a Muslim…
Those beautiful people from Prophet Adam to Prophet Muhammad said that we should be “Good People”…
The way to be a good person is only and only by reading the book of his own existence…
As a person starts to read himself, he reaches the secret of how he came into being and that the Creator is One… As a person gets to know himself, he understands that all existence is a being like himself. He understands that all existence is brothers to each other, the connection between all existence and reaches the truth of the One Power that holds all existence, that is, Allah…
Just as there are infinite cells in a human body and that infinite cell is united in a One body; this seemingly infinite being in the universe is not separate from the One body… Therefore, in the 115th verse of the Surah Al-Baqarah: “Ve lillâhil meşriku vel magribu fe eynemâ tuvellu fe semme vechullah”. Its meaning is: “To Allah belong the East and the West, and wherever you turn, there is the Face of Allah”…
An-Nisa 126: “Ve lillâhi ma fîs semavatî ve ma fîl ard ve kanallâhu bi kulli şey’in muhîtâ”.
Its meaning is: “To Allah belong whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth, and Allah encompasses all things”…
In our translation study, we have researched each word many times, examined the origin of the word root in great detail so as not to make any mistakes, and have taken care to find out what some of the metaphors mean… Most of the truths expressed in the Quran are explained through metaphors. Here are some examples: In Zuhrûf and some other surahs, there is the word “ekvâb”. It is translated as a cup without a handle, a stemless cup, a glass. What is meant by a cup without a handle here is that he has no obsession, and his heart is pure…
In Surah An-Naba, 32, the word “a’nâbe”; although it is said to be grape, vineyard, the vine that holds the grapes, here it points to the cluster that holds the grapes in a vineyard and the vine that holds all the clusters, and it tells us the truth that there is a Being that holds all existence with a metaphor… In Surah An-Naba, 33; the word “kevâıb”; refers to the beautifully melted grapes, and tries to describe dazzling beauties…
As for the word “etrâbe”; there is the truth of similarity, equal, unity, in other words, the demonstration of unity through similarities in all existence… In other words, the meaning of Surah An-Naba: There are dazzling beauties and a consciousness of unity… In many translations; it is translated as girls of the same age whose breasts have just come out.
In other words; it is translated that countless girls of the same age whose breasts have just come out will be given to the man in heaven…
A person feels ashamed when reading this as a meaning. A girl’s breasts come out at the age of 9-10. Unfortunately, people have been reading translations that present sexual intercourse with countless girls of 9-10 years old for centuries. And this is called meaning. The mentalities which makes this translation are the ones that portray the beautiful man Prophet Muhammad as a womanizer…
The mentalities that portray Prophet Muhammad as a person who is fond of sex, made up false hadiths to support this. They also made the meanings according to that understanding. They translated some parts of Surah Al-Ahzab like this. They spread this as meaning almost everywhere in the Quran…
They said he married many people. They could not even agree on the number of them. They said about Ummu Ayman, she was one of his wives and also said that Prophet Muhammad said, she is my mother after my mother.
They explained marriage as a bed relationship.
Marriage: It is used in the meanings of adding, joining, joining a family, uniting, compatibility…
Prophet Muhammad is the person who brought foster care. He took on the care of Ummu Salama and her four children, accepted them and many of them as his family, and added them to his family…
Here, those who did not accept the struggle that Prophet Muhammad made, the mentalities that did not suit them said things that were not true about him. The mentalities that ignored the truths that the beautiful man Prophet Muhammad presented to people committed this cruelty…
It is a responsibility for a person who has the love of Prophet Muhammad in his heart to research these issues in the most minute detail… Prophet Muhammad fought day and night to explain the truth of Allah, Religion, Sunna, Islam, at the cost of his life, and presented many truths to people… What were the truths that Prophet Muhammad presented, why did they not accept them?
Prophet Muhammad: Women and men are equal, women are also human beings, do not mistreat women, you are not superior to each other, young girls should not be forced to marry, they should also have the right to choose their spouses, help each other, let no one die of hunger, do not go to bed with a full stomach while your neighbor is hungry, love your neighbors, there is no slavery or concubinage, do not seek status or sultanate, do not steal anyone’s property, do not oppress, do not usurp anyone’s rights, seek Allah in yourself, not in the Kaaba, do not use religion as a means of earning money, do not turn religion into a trade, do not obey those who ask for a fee in the path of religion, give the trust to its rightful Owner, he conveyed to people such unique advices… Here, the mentalities that ignored the real purpose of that beautiful person said things that were not true about him…
Because, the truths presented by the beautiful person Prophet Muhammad did not suit them, they thought that their order would be disrupted…
They did this cruelty to Prophet Ibrahim, Prophet Musa, Prophet Isa, other Messengers and Prophets and people who followed their path…
So, in order not to make mistakes in our meaning study, we examined it in the finest detail and tried to catch the truths that were intended to be told with analogies…
We know that it is not possible to make a mistake-free translation. Only Allah can convey the
Sublime words that the beautiful person Prophet Muhammad presented through his heart without any mistakes.
We also tried to make a translation as much as we could…
If we have made mistakes unknowingly, if we have not caught some of the truths that were intended to be told, may our Lord forgive us… Peace be upon you…
