Tafsir

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

Ar-Rum 30:55

Word by word

وَيَوْمَ تَقُومُ ٱلسَّاعَةُ يُقْسِمُ ٱلْمُجْرِمُونَ مَا لَبِثُوا۟ غَيْرَ سَاعَةٍ ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ كَانُوا۟ يُؤْفَكُونَ

And the Day the Hour appears the criminals will swear they had remained but an hour. Thus they were deluded.

Tafsir Muyassar

Ministry of Islamic Affairs, Saudi Arabia

ويوم تجيء القيامة ويبعث الله الخلق من قبورهم يقسم المشركون ما مكثوا في الدنيا غير فترة قصيرة من الزمن، كذبوا في قسمهم، كما كانوا يكذبون في الدنيا، وينكرون الحق الذي جاءت به الرسل.
