Surah At-Tur Ayat 49 Tafsir (Commentry)



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

60. This means offer your Tahajjud and Sunnah rak'ats of Fajr Salah. The great Sufis state that this is the remembrance of Meraj, because this also took place during the latter part of the night secretly, i.e. no person was given information about it. Thus, the person intending to offer Tahajjud should do so silently without awakening anybody. Also, he should offer his Sunnah raka'ats of Fajr in some darkness. Thereafter, recite Istighfaar and other azkaar, and when it is light he should offer his Farj raka'ats as can be seen from 'after the setting of the stars'.
