    📖 Commentary of Surah An-Naml – Verse 50

    "And they plotted a plot, and We plotted a plot, and they did not perceive [102]."

    ✅ [102] Divine Counter-Plan Against the Conspirators

    This verse shows the contrast between the schemes of the wrongdoers and Allah’s supreme plan. While the disbelievers conspired against Prophet Saleh and his family, Allah simultaneously devised His own plan to protect His servants and punish the evildoers.

    The phrase "and they did not perceive" highlights their ignorance and inability to foresee Allah’s intervention, demonstrating that human plots cannot outmatch divine wisdom and power.

    Ibn-Kathir

    Please refer to Surah Naml ayat 48 which provides the complete commentary from verse 48 through 53.

    (27:50) Thus they planned and We too planned, the while they did not know.[65]

    Ala-Maududi

    (27:50) Thus they planned and We too planned, the while they did not know.[65]

    65. That is, “Before they could make the night attack on the Prophet Salih (peace be upon him) at the appointed time, Allah sent down His scourge which destroyed their whole nation completely. It appears that they made this plot after hamstringing the she-camel. According to (Surah Hud, Ayat 65), when they had killed the she-camel, Prophet Salih (peace be upon him) gave them a notice to enjoy life in their houses for three more days, for then they would be seized by the torment. At this they might have thought that the torment with which Salih (peace be upon him) threatened them might come or might not, but they must take the vengeance on Salih himself. Therefore, most probably they chose the same night for the attack which Allah had appointed for sending down the torment, and thus were struck down by Allah even before they could touch the Prophet Salih (peace be upon him).”

    (50) And they planned a plan, and We planned a plan, while they perceived not.
