Surah Al-Maidah Ayat 25 Tafsir (Commentry)



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

91. By the word 'power' here means control, authority and power, and not formal property because nobody is the owner of his life nor of the Prophet. What is meant here is that I only have control over myself and my brother, no one else. The verse smacks of the disobedience and high mindedness of the Israelites so much so that as even their Prophets were despondent about them. 

92 From this we understand a few issues:

1. It is a good deed to remain aloof from evil minded people, as Hazrat Moosa (On whom be peace) had made a dua for it.

2. The evil of the evil doers brings about hardship on the pious. Because of these disobedient wretches Hazrat Moosa (On whom be peace) was forced to stay at Teeha, a place of discomfort.

3. The sinful people receive blessings through the company of the pious. Observe, it is due to the blessings of Hazrat Moosa (On whom be peace) that the Israelites were provided with Manna and Quails at Teeha, received twelve fountains of water from the stone and received clothes which did not become dirty and worn out for the entire period they were in the jungle.
