Tafsir

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

Al-Baqarah 2:167

Word by word

وَقَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّبَعُوا۟ لَوْ أَنَّ لَنَا كَرَّةً فَنَتَبَرَّأَ مِنْهُمْ كَمَا تَبَرَّءُوا۟ مِنَّا ۗ كَذَٰلِكَ يُرِيهِمُ ٱللَّهُ أَعْمَـٰلَهُمْ حَسَرَٰتٍ عَلَيْهِمْ ۖ وَمَا هُم بِخَـٰرِجِينَ مِنَ ٱلنَّارِ

Those who followed will say, "If only we had another turn [at worldly life] so we could disassociate ourselves from them as they have disassociated themselves from us." Thus will Allāh show them their deeds as regrets upon them. And they are never to emerge from the Fire.

Tafsir Ibn Kathir

Hafiz Ibn Kathir

وقوله : ( وقال الذين اتبعوا لو أن لنا كرة فنتبرأ منهم كما تبرءوا منا ) أي : لو أن لنا عودة إلى الدار الدنيا حتى نتبرأ من هؤلاء ومن عبادتهم ، فلا نلتفت إليهم ، بل نوحد الله وحده بالعبادة . وهم كاذبون في هذا ، بل لو ردوا لعادوا لما نهوا عنه . كما أخبر الله تعالى عنهم بذلك ; ولهذا قال : ( كذلك يريهم الله أعمالهم حسرات عليهم وما هم بخارجين من النار ) أي : تذهب وتضمحل كما قال الله تعالى : ( وقدمنا إلى ما عملوا من عمل فجعلناه هباء منثورا ) [ الفرقان : 23 ] .وقال تعالى : ( مثل الذين كفروا بربهم أعمالهم كرماد اشتدت به الريح في يوم عاصف ) الآية [ إبراهيم : 18 ] ، وقال تعالى : ( والذين كفروا أعمالهم كسراب بقيعة يحسبه الظمآن ماء ) الآية [ النور : 39 ] ، ولهذا قال تعالى : ( وما هم بخارجين من النار ) .
