Surah Al Imran Ayat 166 Tafsir (Commentry)



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

376. The apparent defeat that you suffered at Uhud was in accordance with Divine will and reason. The errors of the pious too occur with the permission of Allah Almighty. In it there was divine wisdom.

377. From this we learn that the errors of those who are close to Allah Almighty take place through Allah Almighty's permission and are based on numerous forms of wisdom. The coming into existence of the entire universe was due to one error of Hazrat Adam (On whom be peace). Their errors are far greater than our obedience. (The leaving of the Pass of Uhud was an error on the part of the Noble Companions placed in charge to protect it). But, Allah Almighty refers to it as Divine permission. In it were two considerations which are described ahead.
