Surah Ash-Shura Ayat 3 Tafsir (Commentry)



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

2. This tells us that there can be no Prophet صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم after our Holy Prophet Otherwise, mention would have been made about it.

Hazrat Isa (On whom be peace) is among the previous Prophets. His second coming, closer to the Day of Judgement, is not In contradiction of this verse. Here, the comparison is the spirit of revelation, not in the revelation i.e. just as We had sent Our revelation to the Prophets before you. We are sending Our revelation on you too. Then why are the infidels especially the People of the Book so surprised about it? He did not say We will send the revelation to the future Prophets. This is because there would be no Prophet coming in the future.

Ibn-Kathir

The tafsir of Surah Nas by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here. See Surah Nas ayat 1 which goes through tafsir from verse 1 through 6.

(42:3) Thus does Allah, the Most Mighty, the Most Wise reveal to you even as (He revealed) to those (Messengers) who preceded you.[1]

Ala-Maududi

(114:3) the True God of mankind,[1]


1.Here also, as in Surah Al-Falaq, instead of saying Audhu-billahi (I seek Allah’s refuge), a prayer has been taught to seek Allah’s refuge by reference to His three attributes: First, that He is Rabb-in-naas, i.e. Sustainer, Provider; second, that He is Malik-in-naas, i.e. Master of all mankind; third, that He is Ilah-in-naas, i.e. real Deity of all mankind. Here, one should clearly understand that the word ilah has been used in two meanings in the Quran: first for the thing or person who is practically being worshipped although it or he is not entitled to worship; second, for Him Who is entitled to worship, Who is in fact the Deity whether the people worship Him or not, wherever this word is used for Allah; it has been used in the second meaning. Seeking refuge by means of these three attributes means: I seek refuge with that God, Who being the Sustainer, King and Deity of men, has full power over them, can fully protect them and can really save them from the evil, to save myself and others from which I am seeking His refuge. Not only this; since He alone is Sustainer, King and Deity, therefore, there is no one beside Him with Whom I may seek refuge and he may give real refuge.
