Transliteration:( Wa innahu 'alaa zaalika la shaheed )
In this verse, the personal pronoun "undoubtedly he" has multiple interpretations based on various classical Tafaseer, reflecting profound insights into human nature and Allah’s omniscience. These interpretations highlight the accountability of humans and the undeniable knowledge of Allah Almighty over all actions.
Allah as the Witness:
Man as His Own Witness:
"On that Day, their tongues, hands, and feet will bear witness against them as to what they used to do." (Surah An-Nur, 24:24)
Human Nature and Self-Realization:
Allah’s Perfect Knowledge:
Self-Accountability:
Avoiding Hypocrisy:
Preparation for the Day of Judgment:
Be Conscious of Allah’s Presence:
Regular Self-Reflection:
Control Tongue and Actions:
Seek Forgiveness and Strive for Gratitude:
The verse emphasizes that Allah is the ultimate witness to all human actions and that man himself will bear witness to his deeds, either through his own conscience in this world or through his limbs on the Day of Judgment. This dual accountability serves as a reminder for believers to be grateful, avoid hypocrisy, and live a life of righteousness under the ever-watchful eyes of Allah Almighty.

Please refer to Surah Adiyat ayat 1 which provides the complete commentary from verse 1 through 11.
(100:7) and he himself is a witness to that,[5]
5. That is his own conscience and his own deeds are a witness to it; then there are many disbelievers also who by their own tongue express their ingratitude openly, for they do not even believe that God exists to say nothing of acknowledging His blessings for which they may have to render gratitude to Him.
[1971]- Through his speech and his actions.
