Tafsir

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

Al-Baqarah 2:206

Word by word

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُ ٱتَّقِ ٱللَّهَ أَخَذَتْهُ ٱلْعِزَّةُ بِٱلْإِثْمِ ۚ فَحَسْبُهُۥ جَهَنَّمُ ۚ وَلَبِئْسَ ٱلْمِهَادُ

And when it is said to him, "Fear Allāh," pride in the sin takes hold of him. Sufficient for him is Hellfire, and how wretched is the resting place.

Tafsir Ibn Kathir

Hafiz Ibn Kathir

وقوله : ( وإذا قيل له اتق الله أخذته العزة بالإثم ) أي : إذا وعظ هذا الفاجر في مقاله وفعاله ، وقيل له : اتق الله ، وانزع عن قولك وفعلك ، وارجع إلى الحق امتنع وأبى ، وأخذته الحمية والغضب بالإثم ، أي : بسبب ما اشتمل عليه من الآثام ، وهذه الآية شبيهة بقوله تعالى : ( وإذا تتلى عليهم آياتنا بينات تعرف في وجوه الذين كفروا المنكر يكادون يسطون بالذين يتلون عليهم آياتنا قل أفأنبئكم بشر من ذلكم النار وعدها الله الذين كفروا وبئس المصير ) [ الحج : 72 ] ، ولهذا قال في هذه الآية : ( فحسبه جهنم ولبئس المهاد ) أي : هي كافيته عقوبة في ذلك .
