Surah Ta-Ha Ayat 10 Tafsir (Commentry)



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

9 From this we learn that a wife can be called as a household person because at that point in time only his wife Safoorah was with him, whom he called as a household member. Since the word AHL is masculine therefore the verb 'stay, too, is masculine. Hence, in the  progeny of the Holy Prophet his wives, too. are certainly included. 

10. This tells us that only Hazrat Musa (On whom be peace) has seen that fire, not Bibi Safoorah. We also learn that fire can be taken without permission, perhaps this was said because Hazrat Musa (On whom be peace) was not certain of bringing the fire.

 

Ibn-Kathir

The tafsir of Surah Ta-Ha verse 10 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Taha ayat 9 which provides the complete commentary from verse 9 through 10.

(20:10) When he saw a fire[5] and said to his family: “Hold on! I have just perceived a fire; perhaps I will bring a brand from it for you, or I will find some guidance at the fire about the way to follow.”[6]

5. This happened when Prophet Moses (peace be upon him) was returning to Egypt after passing several years in exile in Midian, along with his wife whom he had married there. According to the early part of his history, which has been related in Surah Al-Qasas, an Egyptian had been killed by Prophet Moses (peace be upon him), so he had to leave Egypt in order to escape arrest and had taken refuge in Midian.

6. It appears that this happened during a night of winter, when Prophet Moses (peace be upon him) was passing through the southern part of the Sinai Peninsula. When he saw a fire at a distance, he went towards it in the hope that he might get some of it to keep his wife and children warm during the night, or at least get some guidance concerning the direction of his journey. But instead of this it was his good fortune that he found the guidance to the right way.
