Surah Al-Kahf Ayat 54 Tafsir (Commentry)



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

128. Because the temperaments and habits of people are different, some accept things through proofs, some out of fear and others out of greed. Yet, the Holy QUR'AAN has come for everybody, and as such, it contains information on everything.

129.Here, the word 'man' refers to Nadar bin Harith who remained stubborn till the very end and failed to accept faith.

 

Ibn-Kathir

54. And indeed We have given every kind of example in this Qur’an for mankind. But, man is ever more quarrelsome than anything.


Examples put forth in the Qur’an

Allah says, `In this Qur’an, We have explained to mankind and given clear details of matters so that they will not stray from the truth or be misled from the path of guidance. Despite this explanation, man is very quarrelsome and opposes truth with falsehood,’ except for those whom Allah guides to the path of salvation. Imam Ahmad recorded that `Ali bin Abi Talib said that the Messenger of Allah came to visit him and Fatimah, the daughter of Allah’s Messenger at night, and said,

«أَلَا تُصَلِّيَانِ؟»

(Are you not going to pray) I said, “O Messenger of Allah, our souls are in the Hand of Allah. If He wills to wake us, He will wake us.” When I said that, he went away without returning. Then I heard him as he was walking away, slapping his thigh and saying,

﴿وَكَانَ الإِنْسَـنُ أَكْثَرَ شَىءٍ جَدَلاً﴾

(But, man is ever more quarrelsome than anything.)” It was also recorded in the Two Sahihs.

(18:54) And surely We have explained matters to people in the Qur’an in diverse ways, using all manner of parables. But man is exceedingly contentious.
