Scholarly commentary explaining a verse — its context, its meaning and how the scholars have understood it.
وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ ٱسْجُدُوا۟ لِلرَّحْمَـٰنِ قَالُوا۟ وَمَا ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنُ أَنَسْجُدُ لِمَا تَأْمُرُنَا وَزَادَهُمْ نُفُورًا ۩
And when it is said to them, "Prostrate to the Most Merciful," they say, "And what is the Most Merciful? Should we prostrate to that which you order us?" And it increases them in aversion.
وإذا قيل للكافرين: اسجدوا للرحمن واعبدوه قالوا: ما نعرف الرحمن، أنسجد لما تأمرنا بالسجود له طاعة لأمرك؟ وزادهم دعاؤهم إلى السجود للرحمن بُعْداً عن الإيمان ونفورًا منه.
