    📖 Commentary of Verse 3 (Surah Al-Waqi’ah)

    "Degrading (some) [4] and exalting (others) [5]."

    ✅ [4] This means that the Day of Judgement will disgrace the infidels by casting them into Hell. The term "infidels" includes all types — whether they rejected Allah Almighty or His Beloved Prophet ﷺ.

    ✅ [5] On this day, common believers will receive general honour, while special believers — such as the saints of Allah and noble Islamic scholars — will be granted greater exaltation.
    The highest elevation will be revealed for the Holy Prophet ﷺ.
    Hazrat Abdullah ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) said:
    – Those who were arrogant in the world will be disgraced on this day.
    – Those who were humble and modest will be raised to greatness.

    Ibn-Kathir

    Please refer to Surah Waqiah ayat 1 which provides the complete commentary from verse 1 through 12.

    (56:3) (a calamitous Event) that shall turn things upside down:[2]

    Ala-Maududi

    (56:3) (a calamitous Event) that shall turn things upside down:[2]

    2. Literally: That which causes something or somebody to rise and to fall. Its one meaning can be that it will upset every order and it will turn things upside-down. Another meaning can also be that it will exalt the lowly and bring low the high and mighty; that is, on its advent the decision as to who is noble and who is ignoble among the people will be made on quite a different basis. Those who posed as honorable people in the world would become contemptible and those who were considered contemptible would become honorable.

    (3) It will bring down [some] and raise up [others].[1608]

    [1608]- According to their deeds rather than wealth and social position, as is the case in this world.
