Transliteration:( Falammaa jaaa'ahaa noodiya am boorika man finnnnaari wa man hawlahaa wa Subhaanal laahi Rabbil 'aalameen )

8. Then when he came to fire, a call (14) was made then, Blessed is who is in the place of manifestation of that fire i.e. (Musa) and those who are around it (15) i.e. (angels). And glorified is Allah Who is the Lord of entire worlds (16).

Surah An-Naml Ayat 8 Tafsir (Commentry)



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

14. This sound which he heard, emanated from a tree, in the valley of Sinai.

15. This means Oh Moosa! You as well as the angels around you are all blessed.

From this emerge two issues:

1. The pious servants of Allah Almighty are all blessed people.

2. The believers residing at sacred places are all blessed people. Thus the believers of Madinah Munawwarah are more blessed than we are.
16. Those fires are lights that brighten themselves by appearing from the tree of Sinai.

 

Ibn-Kathir

The tafsir of Surah Naml verse 8 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Naml ayat 7 which provides the complete commentary from verse 7 through 14.

(27:8) But when Moses came to the fire, a call was sounded:[10] “Blessed is He Who is in the fire and whatever is around it. Glory be to Allah, the Sustainer of all in the Universe.[11]

10. According to (Surah Al-Qasas, Ayat 30), the voice was calling out from a tree. What one understands from this is this: A sort of a fire was alight on the ground on the edge of the valley, but neither was anything burning nor any smoke arising. In the midst of the fire there stood a lush green tree from which a voice started calling out this all of a sudden.

This is a strange thing which the prophets of Allah have been experiencing. When the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was first blessed with prophethood, an angel appeared before him in the solitude of the cave of Hira and started delivering Allah’s message. A similar thing happened with the Prophet Moses (peace be upon him) also. A journeying person has halted at a place, sees a fire at a distance, approaches it in order to get some information abort the route, or to pick a burning ember, and suddenly Allah, Lord of the Worlds, the Infinite, the Inconceivable Being, starts speaking to him. On such occasions, there exists externally as well as within the Prophets’ own selves an extraordinary state which fills them with the assurance that it is not a jinn or a satan or an illusion of their own mind, nor are their senses being deceived, but it is the Lord of the universe, or His Angel, who is speaking to them. See (Surah An-Najm, ayat 11) note 10.

11. Here the use of the words Subhan-Allah (glorified is Allah) is meant to warn the Prophet Moses (peace be upon him) to this effect: “You should never think that Allah, Lord of the universe, is sitting in the tree, or has entered into it, or that His absolute Light has concentrated itself into the limited sphere of your sight, or some tongue is functioning in some mouth to produce speech, but it is Allah, Who is Pure and Free from all such limitations, Who is Himself speaking to you.”
