Scholarly commentary explaining a verse — its context, its meaning and how the scholars have understood it.

Hud 11:37

Word by word

وَٱصْنَعِ ٱلْفُلْكَ بِأَعْيُنِنَا وَوَحْيِنَا وَلَا تُخَـٰطِبْنِى فِى ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوٓا۟ ۚ إِنَّهُم مُّغْرَقُونَ

And construct the ship under Our observation and Our inspiration and do not address Me concerning those who have wronged; indeed, they are [to be] drowned."

واصنع السفينة بمرأى منَّا وبأمرنا لك ومعونتنا، وأنت في حفظنا وكلاءتنا، ولا تطلب مني إمهال هؤلاء الذين ظلموا أنفسهم من قومك بكفرهم، فإنهم مغرقون بالطوفان. وفي الآية إثبات صفة العين لله تعالى على ما يليق به سبحانه.
