    📖 Commentary of Surah Ta-Ha – Verse 52

    "He said, 'Their knowledge is with my Lord in a book [59]; my Lord neither errs nor forgets [60].'"

    ✅ [59] Their Record Is with Allah

    This refers to the Lawh-e-Mahfuz (The Preserved Tablet). Hazrat Musa (عليه السلام) did not refrain from answering due to ignorance, but to remain focused on his prophetic mission.
    Earlier, he had already warned Pharaoh:
    "I fear for you a day like the day of former groups" (S40:V30).
    So, he was fully aware, but deliberately avoided the diversion.

    ✅ [60] Allah Neither Makes Mistakes Nor Forgets

    This clarifies that the recording of all things in the Divine Tablet is not due to fear of forgetfulness, but to inform the beloved servants of Allah, whose insight and knowledge benefit from what’s recorded.
    Hazrat Musa (عليه السلام) subtly hinted that though he had knowledge of the previous nations, he chose not to share it for a higher purpose.

    Ibn-Kathir

    The tafsir of Surah Ta-Ha verse 52 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
    Please refer to Surah Taha ayat 49 which provides the complete commentary from verse 49 through 52.

    (20:52) Moses said: “Its knowledge is with my Lord, recorded in the Book. My Lord does not err, nor does He forget.”[25]

    Ala-Maududi

    (20:52) Moses said: “Its knowledge is with my Lord, recorded in the Book. My Lord does not err, nor does He forget.”[25]

    25. This answer is full of wisdom. If Prophet Moses (peace be upon him) had said: Yes, they all lacked common sense and had gone astray and would become the fuel of Hell, this answer, though true, would have served the very purpose Pharaoh had in mind in putting the question. But the answer given by the Prophet was true and it frustrated the trick of Pharaoh as well. His answer was to this effect: Well, those people have now gone before their Lord, and I have no means of judging their deeds and intentions. However, their whole record is safe and secure with Allah, and nothing can escape Him. Allah alone knows how to deal with them. What concerns you and me is our own position and attitude to life. We should be more concerned about our own end than of those who have already passed away into Allah’s presence.

    (52) [Moses] said, "The knowledge thereof is with my Lord in a record. My Lord neither errs nor forgets."
