Surah An-Nahl Ayat 11 Tafsir (Commentry)



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

19. To the Sufi sages, Shariat is the field of faith through which life of faith is maintained. Religious deeds are the grain and seeds of this field. Tareekat is the Garden of faith, and the deeds of Tareekat and its seclusions of mystic communion, etc. are the tasty fruit of it. All this is extracted from the Holy QUR'AAN. If the Holy QUR'AAN and Hadith are not the source of life of anyone, he is groping in the darkness of misguidance

20. From this emerge a few issues: 

1. The field of cultivation is better than a garden, and indulging in farming is better than gardening. This is because farming is the life blood of human existence while gardening is there to enjoy taste and pleasure. Hence fields of crops is mentioned before.

2. Olives, dates and grapes, are better than other fruit. Hence they have been specifically mentioned.

3. Allah Almighty has not created all the fruit in the world. All the fruit will be found in Paradise only. A few varieties from the fruits are provided in this world. For this reason the words "of every kind" is being used 

4.To ponder is better than mere remembrance of Allah Almighty. Through pondering and thinking man becomes a Saint.
