Tafsir

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

Az-Zukhruf 43:33

Word by word

وَلَوْلَآ أَن يَكُونَ ٱلنَّاسُ أُمَّةً وَٰحِدَةً لَّجَعَلْنَا لِمَن يَكْفُرُ بِٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ لِبُيُوتِهِمْ سُقُفًا مِّن فِضَّةٍ وَمَعَارِجَ عَلَيْهَا يَظْهَرُونَ

And if it were not that the people would become one community [of disbelievers], We would have made for those who disbelieve in the Most Merciful - for their houses - ceilings and stairways of silver upon which to mount.

Tafsir Ibn Kathir

Hafiz Ibn Kathir

ثم قال تعالى : ( ولولا أن يكون الناس أمة واحدة ) أي : لولا أن يعتقد كثير من الناس الجهلة أن إعطاءنا المال دليل على محبتنا لمن أعطيناه ، فيجتمعوا على الكفر لأجل المال - هذا معنى قول ابن عباس ، والحسن ، وقتادة ، والسدي ، وغيرهم - ( لجعلنا لمن يكفر بالرحمن لبيوتهم سقفا من فضة ومعارج عليها يظهرون ) أي سلالم ودرجا من فضة - قاله ابن عباس ، ومجاهد ، وقتادة ، والسدي : وابن زيد ، وغيرهم - ( عليها يظهرون ) ، أي : يصعدون .
