Tafsir

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

Ar-Rum 30:21

Word by word

وَمِنْ ءَايَـٰتِهِۦٓ أَنْ خَلَقَ لَكُم مِّنْ أَنفُسِكُمْ أَزْوَٰجًا لِّتَسْكُنُوٓا۟ إِلَيْهَا وَجَعَلَ بَيْنَكُم مَّوَدَّةً وَرَحْمَةً ۚ إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَـَٔايَـٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ

And of His signs is that He created for you from yourselves mates that you may find tranquility in them; and He placed between you affection and mercy. Indeed in that are signs for a people who give thought.

ومن آياته الدالة على عظمته وكمال قدرته أن خلق لأجلكم من جنسكم -أيها الرجال- أزواجًا; لتطمئن نفوسكم إليها وتسكن، وجعل بين المرأة وزوجها محبة وشفقة، إن في خلق الله ذلك لآيات دالة على قدرة الله ووحدانيته لقوم يتفكرون، ويتدبرون.
