Surah Hud Ayat 54 Tafsir (Commentry)



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

114. In this there is a hint that devils cannot gain power over the intelligence of a Prophet of Allah, nor can they bedevil them. The effect of an evil eye and magic upon a Prophet is like the sword and poison proving effective. Without doubt devils can have no effect on them. Allah Almighty says: "No doubt those who are My bondsmen, you have no control over them" (S17:V65). 

It is for this reason that Allah Almighty has referred to this as an utterance of the infidels. 

115. This has been said here to rebuke and ridicule them. Religious testimony is not meant by this, because an infidel cannot become at witness over a believer. Also, an enemy does not testify against another enemy when opposing Him.

 

Ibn-Kathir

Please refer to Surah Hud ayat 53 which provides the complete commentary from verse 53 through 56.

(11:54) All we can say is that some god of ours has afflicted you with evil.[59] .Hud said: ‘Indeed I take Allah as my witness,[60] and you too to be my witnesses that I have nothing to do[61] with your associating with Allah

Ala-Maududi

(11:54) All we can say is that some god of ours has afflicted you with evil.[59] .Hud said: ‘Indeed I take Allah as my witness,[60] and you too to be my witnesses that I have nothing to do[61] with your associating with Allah

59. That is, it appears that you had behaved rudely towards a god or goddess or saint: Consequently you have been smitten with madness and are being abused, dishonored and pelted with stones in the same streets in which you were respected and honored before this.

60. This was the refutation of their charge that he had not brought any clear evidence to them. It implied: You say that I have brought no evidence to prove that I have been sent by Allah who is a standing witness everywhere in His universe and giving evidence with the phenomena of nature to show that the truth I have stated before you is absolutely correct. This also proves conclusively that there is no sign of truth in what you falsely ascribe to your gods.

61. This is the answer of Prophet Houd (peace be upon him) to their assertion: We are not going to give up our gods at your word. (Surah Hud, ayat 53). His reply implied: Note it well that I, too, feel a strong disgust at the gods you have set up beside Allah.
