Surah Al-Qamar Ayat 43 Tafsir (Commentry)



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

58 This means, Oh people of Makkah! Do have more power and wealth than these ople? Or, are you less in infidelity than them? It should be remembered that here the word "better" does not mean any good, because infidel is not good. Yet, one cannot say that Christian is better than a Hindu. Instead, you can say that polytheists are worse than Christians.

59. 'Bara-atun' refers to a permit, a passport or a visa. This means that have you found a certificate from Allah Almighty in any of the Heavenly Scriptures that you may utter infidelity, but you will not be punished for it?

Ibn-Kathir

Please refer to Surah Qamar ayat 41 which provides the complete commentary from verse 41 through 46.

(54:43) Are your unbelievers (of Makkah) any better than they?[23] Or have you been granted any immunity in the Scriptures?

23. The address here is directed to the Quraish, as if to say: When the other nation have been punished for adopting disbelief and showing stubbornness and denying the truth, why would you not be punished if you adopted the same attitude and conduct. For, you are not a special people in any way.
