Surah Al-Maaarij Ayat 2 Tafsir (Commentry)



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

2. Reason for its Revelation:

Nadar bin Harith, Abu Jahl, etc., and the leaders of the Quraish, had asked the Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم who is entitled to the punishment about which you are warning us? in reply to it, this verse was revealed (Tafseer Khazainul Irfaan). In this condition, by a question is meant to ask. The author of Tafseer Azizi said that people would pray holding the Cloth of the Holy Ka'bah, that Oh Allah! If Islam is the true religion, then pour stones upon us. This verse was revealed regarding them. In this condition, the question signifies offering a prayer. The objective of this is whether the people pray or not, the punishment is certain to descend upon the infidels. It will not be warded off by any means.
