Transliteration:( Inna 'ibaadee laisa laka 'alaihim sultaan; wa kafaa bi Rabbika Wakeelaa )

65. No doubt those who are My bondsmen, you have no control (144). over them. And your Lord is sufficient as their guardian (145),

Surah Al-Isra Ayat 65 Tafsir (Commentry)



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

144. This tells us that all the Prophets are innocent, and some saints are protected. Innocent is he who does not commit a sin, while protected is that being who can commit sin, but through Divine grace does not do so. Innocence is compulsory for prophethood, but protection is not obligatory for sainthood.

Those who Allah Almighty wishes to protect will remain safe from sins e.g. the Rightly Guided Caliphs, etc.

145. That Allah Almighty will protect his chosen servants from all the deceptions of the devil.

 

Ibn-Kathir

The tafsir of Surah Al-Isra verse 65 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Isra ayat 63 which provides the complete commentary from verse 63 through 65.

(17:65) but know well that you will have no power against My servants.[80] Your Lord suffices for them to place their trust in.”[81]

80. It has two meanings: (1) You will have no power over human beings to force them to follow your way. What you are allowed to do is that you may delude them by false counsel and entice them by false promises, but they will have the option to follow or not to follow your counsel. You will not have the power over them to force them to follow your way against their will. (2) You will not succeed in alluring My righteous people. Though the weak minded will be enticed by you. My righteous people who are steadfast in My obedience will not succumb to you.

81. That is, those who will trust in Allah and believe in His guidance and help, will not stand in need of any other support in their trial by Satan for Allah will guide them, protect them and help them to be safe from his allurements. On the other hand, those people, who will place their trust in their own power or that of any other than Allah, will not come out successful in their trial by Satan.
