Tafsir

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

Al-'Ankabut 29:67

Word by word

أَوَلَمْ يَرَوْا۟ أَنَّا جَعَلْنَا حَرَمًا ءَامِنًا وَيُتَخَطَّفُ ٱلنَّاسُ مِنْ حَوْلِهِمْ ۚ أَفَبِٱلْبَـٰطِلِ يُؤْمِنُونَ وَبِنِعْمَةِ ٱللَّهِ يَكْفُرُونَ

Have they not seen that We made [Makkah] a safe sanctuary, while people are being taken away all around them? Then in falsehood do they believe, and in the favor of Allāh they disbelieve?

أو لم يشاهد كفار «مكة» أن الله جعل «مكة» لهم حَرَمًا آمنًا يأمن فيه أهله على أنفسهم وأموالهم، والناسُ مِن حولهم خارج الحرم، يُتَخَطَّفون غير آمنين؟ أفبالشرك يؤمنون، وبنعمة الله التي خصَّهم بها يكفرون، فلا يعبدونه وحده دون سواه؟
