Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : How accurate is the phrase: "the one whose command is between the kaf and the nun"?
Yes, this is not correct, ...
The Shaykh : How is his command between the kaf and the nun?
The questioner : I mean, when Allah (Mighty and Majestic) says: "Be."
The Shaykh : I understand, I understand, but does the command not come except with the kaf and the nun?
The questioner : They mean the kaf and the nun, meaning that before the nun is completed, the object is [created].
The Shaykh : This is not correct; the object does not exist until the nun is completed. If they said: "the one whose command is after the kaf and the nun," that would be correct.
The questioner : But, O Shaykh: Does Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) say "Be," or does He speak about the entire action?
The Shaykh : What?
The questioner :[Al-Baqarah 2:30] So he said a word, and did not say "Be"?
The Shaykh : According to the directed word,[Al-Baqarah 2:65], according to the directed word,
The questioner : I mean, it is not "Be," O Shaykh?
The Shaykh : No, after the directed word. But for example, "Write what is to be." The point is that it is according to the directed word,[Ya-Sin 36:82] but between the kaf and the nun, it has no meaning.
The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : Yes?

The Shaykh : The point is that this should be left out, as long as it implies something that is not correct, it should be left out, yes.

The Shaykh : What?
The questioner :
And [mention, O Muhammad], when your Lord said to the angels, "Indeed, I will make upon the earth a successive authority." They said, "Will You place upon it one who causes corruption therein and sheds blood, while we declare Your praise and sanctify You?" Allah said, "Indeed, I know that which you do not know."
وإذ قال ربك للملائكة اسجدوا لآدمThe Shaykh : According to the directed word,
Be apes, despised."
كونوا قردة خاسئينThe questioner : I mean, it is not "Be," O Shaykh?
The Shaykh : No, after the directed word. But for example, "Write what is to be." The point is that it is according to the directed word,
His command is only when He intends a thing that He says to it, "Be," and it is.
