The meaning of the poet's statement: "And I will surely reveal secrets that were hidden from *** the weak of your creation, by explanation, and I will surely follow them to where they end *** until it is said: Is it beyond 'Abbadan?"

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :"And I will surely reveal secrets that were hidden from *** the weak of your creation, by explanation"
And he (may Allah have mercy on him) did so, exposing their defects in a way that only his Shaykh, Ibn Taymiyyah, had done.
"And I will surely follow them to where they end ***" and I will not stop before the root? Huh? He follows them to where they end, "*** until it is said: Is it beyond 'Abbadan?"
'Abbadan is a well-known town in Iraq, and the author is from the Levant. He says: I will follow them until it is said, "Are you following them beyond 'Abbadan?" meaning: from beyond 'Abbadan. I will follow them to where they end, even if they reach China. Yes, that is right.
"And I will surely pelt them with the signs of guidance *** as the hunter pellets with piercing meteors"
Yes, I will pelt them with piercing meteors, as the hunter pellets. The hunter means the one who intends, and the person who intends to hunt will, in most cases, catch his prey. Yes.

The Shaykh : Huh? Huh?
The student: ...

The Shaykh : The hunter? Yes, that is correct, this is the right interpretation.
"And I will surely pelt them with the signs of guidance *** as the hunter pellets with piercing meteors"
The first interpretation is incorrect. "As the hunter pellets" is incorrect in light of the verse, and it is not correct either. The person who intends to hunt will catch his prey, but in light of the verse, there is no doubt that the intended meaning is the hunter, meaning the devils, for they pelt the worst of the devils with meteors.
"And I will surely set up for them observation posts for their schemes *** and I will surely enclose them in every place"
"Mara'isid" is the plural of "mirsad," meaning: the place where their presence is sought out. I will set up for them.
