Surah Al-Baqarah Ayat 86 Tafsir (Commentry)



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

160. From this verse emerge two issues:
1. The punishment of the leaders of the non-believers will not lessen in intensity with the exception of leaders like Abu Talib whose punishment will be lighter on account of his service to the Holy Prophet
2. Those deprived of help on the Day of Judgement refers to the non-believers. As for the Muslims, Allah will appoint many helpers for them. He who says I have no helper is unwittingly admitting his disbelief.
