Tafsir

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

Al-Isra 17:21

Word by word

ٱنظُرْ كَيْفَ فَضَّلْنَا بَعْضَهُمْ عَلَىٰ بَعْضٍ ۚ وَلَلْـَٔاخِرَةُ أَكْبَرُ دَرَجَـٰتٍ وَأَكْبَرُ تَفْضِيلًا

Look how We have favored [in provision] some of them over others. But the Hereafter is greater in degrees [of difference] and greater in distinction.

Tafsir Ibn Kathir

Hafiz Ibn Kathir

ثم قال تعالى ( انظر كيف فضلنا بعضهم على بعض ) في الدنيا فمنهم الغني والفقير وبين ذلك والحسن والقبيح وبين ذلك ومن يموت صغيرا ، ومن يعمر حتى يبقى شيخا كبيرا وبين ذلك ( وللآخرة أكبر درجات وأكبر تفضيلا ) أي ولتفاوتهم في الدار الآخرة أكبر من الدنيا فإن منهم من يكون في الدركات في جهنم وسلاسلها وأغلالها ومنهم من يكون في الدرجات العلى ونعيمها وسرورها ثم أهل الدركات يتفاوتون فيما هم فيه كما أن أهل الدرجات يتفاوتون فإن الجنة مائة درجة ما بين كل درجتين كما بين السماء والأرض وفي الصحيحين إن أهل الدرجات العلى ليرون أهل عليين كما ترون الكوكب الغابر في أفق السماء " ولهذا قال تعالى : ( وللآخرة أكبر درجات وأكبر تفضيلا ) ] .
