Tafsir

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

Ar-Rum 30:40

Word by word

ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَكُمْ ثُمَّ رَزَقَكُمْ ثُمَّ يُمِيتُكُمْ ثُمَّ يُحْيِيكُمْ ۖ هَلْ مِن شُرَكَآئِكُم مَّن يَفْعَلُ مِن ذَٰلِكُم مِّن شَىْءٍ ۚ سُبْحَـٰنَهُۥ وَتَعَـٰلَىٰ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ

Allāh is the one who created you, then provided for you, then will cause you to die, and then will give you life. Are there any of your "partners" who does anything of that? Exalted is He and high above what they associate with Him.

الله وحده هو الذي خلقكم -أيها الناس- ثم رزقكم في هذه الحياة، ثم يميتكم بانتهاء آجالكم، ثم يبعثكم من القبور أحياء للحساب والجزاء، هل من شركائكم مَن يفعل من ذلكم من شيء؟ تنزَّه الله وتقدَّس عن شرك هؤلاء المشركين به.
