Surah Al-Ankabut Ayat 20 Tafsir (Commentry)



  • Tafseer-e-Naeemi (Ahmad Yaar Khan)
  • Ibn Kathir
  • Ala-Madudi

43. This tells us that travelling for the purpose of visualising the creative power of Allah Almighty; by looking at the wonders in the sea, the mountains and in the earth: is an act of worship as this is the means of obtaining His mystical knowledge. 

44. This means since you have understood that the Creator and Inventor of everything is Allah Almighty, then you should believe this, too, with certainty that He is the giver of a second life as well because renewal is far easier than creation. Hence, there is no inconsistency in the verse.

 

Ibn-Kathir

The tafsir of Surah Ankabut verse 20 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Ankabut ayat 19 which provides the complete commentary from verse 19 through 23.

(29:20) Say: “Go about the earth and see how He created for the first time, and then Allah will recreate life.” Surely, Allah has power over everything.[33]

33. That is, “When you yourselves are witnessing things being created in the first instance by God’s competence and skill, you should understand it well that re-creation shall also take place by the same competence and skill. Such a thing is not beyond His power nor can it be.”
