Surah An-Nisa Ayat 42 Tafsir (Commentry)



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

155. By this, it meant both their beliefs and deeds are defective and wretched. The defectiveness of their beliefs is indicated in "they disbelieved" and the defectiveness of their deeds is shown in "they disobeyed the Messenger". Every person should make it his duty to correct his beliefs and deeds and keep them both flawless, otherwise difficulties would be experienced later.
156. Just as animals would be turned to dust after being compensated over one another, the disbelievers too would wish that they too can be turned to dust. Says Allah Almighty: "And the infidel will say would that I were dust" (S79: V40).
