Tafsir

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

Al-Isra 17:58

Word by word

وَإِن مِّن قَرْيَةٍ إِلَّا نَحْنُ مُهْلِكُوهَا قَبْلَ يَوْمِ ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ أَوْ مُعَذِّبُوهَا عَذَابًا شَدِيدًا ۚ كَانَ ذَٰلِكَ فِى ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ مَسْطُورًا

And there is no city but that We will destroy it before the Day of Resurrection or punish it with a severe punishment. That has ever been in the Register inscribed.

Tafsir Ibn Kathir

Hafiz Ibn Kathir

هذا إخبار من الله عز وجل بأنه قد حتم وقضى بما قد كتبه عنده في اللوح المحفوظ أنه ما من قرية إلا سيهلكها بأن يبيد أهلها جميعهم أو يعذبهم ( عذابا شديدا ) إما بقتل أو ابتلاء بما يشاء وإنما يكون ذلك بسبب ذنوبهم وخطاياهم كما قال عن الأمم الماضين ( وما ظلمناهم ولكن ظلموا أنفسهم ) [ هود 101 ] وقال تعالى ) وكأين من قرية عتت عن أمر ربها ورسله فحاسبناها حسابا شديدا وعذبناها عذابا نكرا فذاقت وبال أمرها وكان عاقبة أمرها خسرا ) [ الطلاق 7 ، 8 ]
