Tafsir

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

Al-Anbya 21:94

Word by word

فَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِنَ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ فَلَا كُفْرَانَ لِسَعْيِهِۦ وَإِنَّا لَهُۥ كَـٰتِبُونَ

So whoever does righteous deeds while he is a believer - no denial will there be for his effort, and indeed We [i.e., Our angels], of it, are recorders.

Tafsir Ibn Kathir

Hafiz Ibn Kathir

ولهذا قال : ( فمن يعمل من الصالحات وهو مؤمن ) أي : قلبه مصدق ، وعمل عملا صالحا ، ( فلا كفران لسعيه ) ، كقوله : ( إنا لا نضيع أجر من أحسن عملا ) [ الكهف : 30 ] أي : لا يكفر سعيه ، وهو عمله ، بل يشكر ، فلا يظلم مثقال ذرة; ولهذا قال : ( وإنا له كاتبون ) أي : يكتب جميع عمله ، فلا يضيع عليه منه شيء .
