Surah Al-Isra Ayat 35 Tafsir (Commentry)



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

84. It is obligatory that at the time of giving the measure or weight must be accurate, in fact to give a little more is desirable. 

The said Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم: "When you weigh, weigh slightly more". But when you receive, let the measure be an even balance without any extra. The end result of this is good as it is full of blessing as well liked in the eyes of the people and proves beneficial to flourish the trade.

Ala-Maududi

(17:35) (xii) Give full measure when you measure, and weigh with even scales.[40] That is fair and better in consequence.[41]

40. This instruction was not confined to individuals only but it has been made a part of the duties of an Islamic government to supervise transactions in the markets and streets to see that exact measures and weights are being observed, and prevent their breach and violation by the force of law. Afterwards it was made one of the duties of the government to eradicate dishonesty in all commercial dealings and economic transactions.

41. That is, its end will be best in this world and it will be best in the Hereafter. It is best in this world because it produces mutual trust between sellers and buyers. As a result of this, commerce prospers and there is a general prosperity. As regards the Hereafter, there the end depends entirely on honesty, piety and fear of God.
