Tafsir

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

Al-Anfal 8:42

Word by word

إِذْ أَنتُم بِٱلْعُدْوَةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا وَهُم بِٱلْعُدْوَةِ ٱلْقُصْوَىٰ وَٱلرَّكْبُ أَسْفَلَ مِنكُمْ ۚ وَلَوْ تَوَاعَدتُّمْ لَٱخْتَلَفْتُمْ فِى ٱلْمِيعَـٰدِ ۙ وَلَـٰكِن لِّيَقْضِىَ ٱللَّهُ أَمْرًا كَانَ مَفْعُولًا لِّيَهْلِكَ مَنْ هَلَكَ عَنۢ بَيِّنَةٍ وَيَحْيَىٰ مَنْ حَىَّ عَنۢ بَيِّنَةٍ ۗ وَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَسَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ

[Remember] when you were on the near side of the valley, and they were on the farther side, and the caravan was lower [in position] than you. If you had made an appointment [to meet], you would have missed the appointment. But [it was] so that Allāh might accomplish a matter already destined - that those who perished [through disbelief] would perish upon evidence and those who lived [in faith] would live upon evidence; and indeed, Allāh is Hearing and Knowing.

Tafsir Muyassar

Ministry of Islamic Affairs, Saudi Arabia

واذكروا حينما كنتم على جانب الوادي الأقرب إلى «المدينة» ، وعدوكم نازل بجانب الوادي الأقصى، وعِير التجارة في مكان أسفل منكم إلى ساحل «البحر الأحمر» ، ولو حاولتم أن تضعوا موعدًا لهذا اللقاء لاختلفتم، ولكنَّ الله جمعكم على غير ميعاد; ليقضي أمرًا كان مفعولا بنصر أوليائه، وخِذْلان أعدائه بالقتل والأسر; وذلك ليهلك من هلك منهم عن حجة لله ثبتت له فعاينها وقطعت عذره، وليحيا مَن حيَّ عن حجة لله قد ثبتت وظهرت له. وإن الله لسميع لأقوال الفريقين، لا يخفى عليه شيء، عليم بنيَّاتهم وأعمالهم
