Tafsir

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

Ghafir 40:67

Word by word

هُوَ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَكُم مِّن تُرَابٍ ثُمَّ مِن نُّطْفَةٍ ثُمَّ مِنْ عَلَقَةٍ ثُمَّ يُخْرِجُكُمْ طِفْلًا ثُمَّ لِتَبْلُغُوٓا۟ أَشُدَّكُمْ ثُمَّ لِتَكُونُوا۟ شُيُوخًا ۚ وَمِنكُم مَّن يُتَوَفَّىٰ مِن قَبْلُ ۖ وَلِتَبْلُغُوٓا۟ أَجَلًا مُّسَمًّى وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ

It is He who created you from dust, then from a sperm-drop, then from a clinging clot; then He brings you out as a child; then [He develops you] that you reach your [time of] maturity, then [further] that you become elders. And among you is he who is taken in death before [that], so that you reach a specified term; and perhaps you will use reason.

Tafsir Ibn Kathir

Hafiz Ibn Kathir

( هو الذي خلقكم من تراب ثم من نطفة ثم من علقة ثم يخرجكم طفلا ثم لتبلغوا أشدكم ثم لتكونوا شيوخا ) أي : هو الذي يقلبكم في هذه الأطوار كلها ، وحده لا شريك له ، وعن أمره وتدبيره وتقديره يكون ذلك كله ، ( ومنكم من يتوفى من قبل ) أي : من قبل أن يوجد ويخرج إلى هذا العالم ، بل تسقطه أمه سقطا ، ومنهم من يتوفى صغيرا ، وشابا ، وكهلا قبل الشيخوخة ، كقوله : ( لنبين لكم ونقر في الأرحام ما نشاء إلى أجل مسمى ) [ الحج : 5 ] وقال هاهنا : ( ولعلكم تعقلون ) قال ابن جريج ، تتذكرون البعث .
