📖 Commentary of Surah Ta-Ha – Verse 135

135. Say, 'All are waiting, then you too wait, then now you will know that who are the men who are on the straight path and who received guidance' [197].

✅ 197. Background of Revelation

🔹 When the disbelievers of Makkah saw the early Muslims enduring hardships, they mocked the believers and claimed they were waiting for time to reverse in their favor, expecting the downfall of Islam.
🔹 In response, this verse was revealed to tell the Prophet ﷺ to challenge their wait with the Muslims' own wait — that time would soon reveal who was truly on the straight path and rightly guided.
🔹 This verse reflects the confidence of divine truth and assures the believers that victory belongs to those upon guidance, not those who mock or plot against it.

Ibn-Kathir

The tafsir of Surah Ta-Ha verse 135 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Taha ayat 131 which provides the complete commentary from verse 131 through 135.

(20:135) Tell them, (O Muhammad): “Everyone is waiting for his end.[117] Wait, then, and you will soon know who are the people of the Right Way, and are rightly-guided.”

117. That is, ever since the message of Islam is being presented in your city (Makkah), it is not only every person of this city who is waiting for its ultimate result but also every one outside it, who has heard of it.

(135) Say, "Each [of us] is waiting;[870] so wait. For you will know who are the companions of the sound path and who is guided."
