Tafsir

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

Ash-Shuraa 42:47

Word by word

ٱسْتَجِيبُوا۟ لِرَبِّكُم مِّن قَبْلِ أَن يَأْتِىَ يَوْمٌ لَّا مَرَدَّ لَهُۥ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ ۚ مَا لَكُم مِّن مَّلْجَإٍ يَوْمَئِذٍ وَمَا لَكُم مِّن نَّكِيرٍ

Respond to your Lord before a Day comes from Allāh of which there is no repelling. No refuge will you have that Day, nor for you will there be any denial.

Tafsir Ibn Kathir

Hafiz Ibn Kathir

لما ذكر تعالى ما يكون في يوم القيامة من الأهوال والأمور العظام الهائلة حذر منه وأمر بالاستعداد له ، فقال : ( استجيبوا لربكم من قبل أن يأتي يوم لا مرد له من الله ) أي : إذا أمر بكونه فإنه كلمح البصر يكون ، وليس له دافع ولا مانع .وقوله : ( ما لكم من ملجإ يومئذ وما لكم من نكير ) أي : ليس لكم حصن تتحصنون فيه ، ولا مكان يستركم وتتنكرون فيه ، فتغيبون عن بصره ، تبارك وتعالى ، بل هو محيط بكم بعلمه وبصره وقدرته ، فلا ملجأ منه إلا إليه ، ( يقول الإنسان يومئذ أين المفر . كلا لا وزر إلى ربك يومئذ المستقر ) [ القيامة : 10 - 12 ] .
