Transliteration:( Famaa zannukum bi Rabbil'aalameen )
"What do you think [87] about the Lord of the universe?"
Will He leave you unpunished despite your infidelity and polytheism? This kind of thinking is incorrect. Hazrat Ebrahim (On whom be peace) was correcting their misguided belief that simply being his relatives or part of his nation would save them from Allah’s punishment.
This teaches us that relationship with a Prophet alone is not enough—true faith and righteous actions are necessary to attain salvation.
The tafsir of Surah As-Saffat verse 87 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Saffat ayat 83 which provides the complete commentary from verse 83 through 87.
(37:87) What do you think of the Lord of the whole Universe?”[46]
46. That is, why have you formed such a wrong view of Allah? Do you think that the gods that you yourselves have carved out from wood and stone can be like Him, or can be His associates in his attributes and rights? And are you involved in the misunderstanding that you will somehow manage to escape His punishment after you have indulged in such blasphemy?
