Tafsir

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

An-Nisa 4:115

Word by word

وَمَن يُشَاقِقِ ٱلرَّسُولَ مِنۢ بَعْدِ مَا تَبَيَّنَ لَهُ ٱلْهُدَىٰ وَيَتَّبِعْ غَيْرَ سَبِيلِ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ نُوَلِّهِۦ مَا تَوَلَّىٰ وَنُصْلِهِۦ جَهَنَّمَ ۖ وَسَآءَتْ مَصِيرًا

And whoever opposes the Messenger after guidance has become clear to him and follows other than the way of the believers - We will give him what he has taken and drive him into Hell, and evil it is as a destination.

ومن يخالف الرسول صلى الله عليه وسلم من بعد ما ظهر له الحق، ويسلك طريقًا غير طريق المؤمنين، وما هم عليه من الحق، نتركه وما توجَّه إليه، فلا نوفقه للخير، وندخله نار جهنم يقاسي حرَّها، وبئس هذا المرجع والمآل.
