Tafsir

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

Al-Ahzab 33:69

Word by word

يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَا تَكُونُوا۟ كَٱلَّذِينَ ءَاذَوْا۟ مُوسَىٰ فَبَرَّأَهُ ٱللَّهُ مِمَّا قَالُوا۟ ۚ وَكَانَ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ وَجِيهًا

O you who have believed, be not like those who abused Moses; then Allāh cleared him of what they said. And he, in the sight of Allāh, was distinguished.

يا أيها الذين صدَّقوا الله ورسوله وعملوا بشرعه لا تؤذوا رسول الله بقول أو فعل، ولا تكونوا أمثال الذين آذوا نبيَّ الله موسى، فبرَّأه الله مما قالوا فيه من الكذب والزور، وكان عند الله عظيم القدر والجاه.
