Surah Al-Kahf Ayat 40 Tafsir (Commentry)



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

94.Either in this world or in the Hereafter. But, the former meaning holds more weight, because this infidel had viewed the worldly garden of this believer with contempt. The discussion, which follows, is regarding worldly punishment.

95.The thunderbolt from heaven comes down on your garden in your own lifetime, so that while seeing the garden being destroyed you would utter words of regret.

96. This tells us that a believer sees through Divine light and his estimation and assumption is always accurate. Whatever was said by this believer, the same came to pass. This is the miracle of the believer or of his intuition. If this were the condition of a believer's inspiration and sagacity, then what would be the status of the knowledge and sagacity of a saint and a Prophet? This is much beyond our estimation.
