Quran-18:34 Surah Al-kahf English Translation,Transliteration and Tafsir(Tafseer).

Transliteration:( Wa kaana lahoo samarun faqaala lisaahibihee wa huwa yuhaawiruhoo ana aksaru minka maalanw wa a'azzu nafaraa )

34. And he had fruits, (82), then he said to his companion. And he used to argue (83), with him; I have greater wealth then you and am stronger (84) in respect of men.'

Surah Al-Kahf Ayat 34 Tafsir (Commentry)



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

82.This means that besides this garden, the owner also possessed a great deal of wealth, gold and silver. Or, besides the orchards of grapes and dates, he also possessed other fruit gardens,

83.This means this arrogant infidel and his believing neighbour were having a debate with one another, in which this boastful infidel, in an attempt to disgrace the believer, would say this. Thus, this talk of his became a criminal act. 

84.From this we learn to brag and boast is the way of infidels, while expressing gratitude and praise at obtaining Divine favours is the way of life of the believers. 

Says Allah Almighty: "And publicize well the favours of your Lord" (S93:V11). In a like manner, to regard a believer as disgraceful, too, is the work of an infidel.
