Transliteration:( Wa hudooo ilat taiyibi minal qawli wa hudooo ilaaa siraatil hameed )
49.This tells us that evil is spoken by people themselves while pious things are spoken through Divine guidance, in this world, in the grave as well as in the Hereafter. "They were guide†tells us that pure speech was due to Divine inspiration. This pure speech' includes Kalima Tayyibah, recitation of the Holy QURAN Darood Shareef. Na'at recitals, true and pious talks.Â
50. This is the same Path which is followed by the Prophets and the Saints of Allah Almighty. Says Allah Almighty "The Path of those whom Thou hast favoured" (S1:V6). Allah Almighty further says: "And be with the truthful" (S9 V119).
Only by treading in this Path will you find Allah Almighty. May Allah Almighty guide us on this path and keep us firmly on it.

The tafsir of Surah Al-Hajj verse 24 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Hajj ayat 23 which provides the complete commentary from verse 23 through 24.
39. “Purest of the speechesâ€: though it may imply every pure thing, here it refers to the basic articles of the faith.
40. As already stated in the introduction, the portion of the Surah, which was revealed at Makkah, comes to an end here. Though its style is clearly that of the Makki Surahs and there is nothing to indicate that any part (or the whole) of it was revealed at Al-Madinah, yet the words, “these are the two partiesâ€, have given rise to the misunderstanding that this verse was revealed at Al-Madinah. Some commentators are of the opinion that the two parties referred to were the parties who met in the Battle of Badr, but there is nothing in the context to support this opinion. On the other hand, from the context in which these words occur, it becomes obvious that the two parties referred to were the believers and the disbelievers. For the conflict between belief and disbelief has always been going on ever since the creation of man and will go on upto the Day of Resurrection.
Incidentally, this latter view helps prove that the Quran is a continuous whole and every part of it is closely connected with the other: whereas the comments mentioned earlier would imply that there is no continuous theme in the Quran but different parts of it have been put together without rhyme or reason.
