📖 Commentary of Surah Saba – Verse 2

"He knows what goes [5] into the earth and what comes [6] from it, and what descends from the heaven and what ascends into it. And He is the Merciful, the Forgiving. [9]" (Kanzul Imaan Translation)

✅ [5] What Enters the Earth

This includes things like corpses, treasures, minerals, raindrops, seeds, and sperm. In summary, Allah is fully aware of every single thing that enters the earth, whether hidden or visible, grand or minute. His knowledge encompasses all, and nothing is outside His sight or control.

✅ [6] What Emerges from the Earth

This refers to plants, trees, water springs, minerals, and even the resurrection of the dead on the Day of Judgement. Everything that comes out of the earth does so by His command and knowledge, highlighting both His creative power and perfect awareness.

✅ [7] What Descends from the Heaven

From rain, hail, snow, to angels, divine scriptures, sustenance, and even decrees (Qadr)—all descend by Allah’s Will and Knowledge. Nothing comes down except through His order, reminding us of His role as the sole controller of divine operations.

✅ [8] What Ascends into the Heaven

This includes vapors, mist, and angels, as well as the souls, prayers, and righteous deeds of Allah’s beloved servants. Everything that rises upward is under His divine observation, governed by His will and mercy.

✅ [9] Praise for His Knowledge and Mercy

Allah is an exalted Lord, with complete knowledge of all that is sublime and all that is subtle. This verse affirms the previous verse’s message—that Allah is alone worthy of praise. His knowledge, coupled with being Most Merciful and Oft-Forgiving, makes Him deserving of absolute devotion and recognition.

Please refer to Surah Saba ayat 1 which provides the complete commentary from verse 1 through 2.

(34:2) He knows what penetrates into the earth and what goes forth from it, what descends from the heaven and what ascends to it. He is the Most Merciful, the Most Forgiving.[4]

Ala-Maududi

(34:2) He knows what penetrates into the earth and what goes forth from it, what descends from the heaven and what ascends to it. He is the Most Merciful, the Most Forgiving.[4]


4. That is, “If a person (or persons) is not being seized in spite of rebellion against Him in His Kingdom, it is not because this world is a lawless kingdom, but because Allah is All-Merciful and All-Forbearing. Although it is in His power to seize the sinner and the wrongdoer immediately on the commission of sin, to withhold his sustenance, to paralyze his body, and to put him to death suddenly, yet He does not do it so. It is the demand of His Beneficence that in spite of being All-Powerful, He gives the disobedient servant plenty of time and enough respite to mend his ways and as soon as he desists from his evil ways, He pardons and forgives him.”

(2) He knows what penetrates into the earth and what emerges from it and what descends from the heaven and what ascends therein. And He is the Merciful, the Forgiving.
