    The tafsir of Surah Anbiya verse 31 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
    Please refer to Surah Anbiya ayat 30 which provides the complete commentary from verse 30 through 33.

    (21:31) And We placed firm mountains on earth lest it should sway with them,[30] and We made wide paths[31] in them that they may find their way;[32]

    Ala-Maududi

    (21:31) And We placed firm mountains on earth lest it should sway with them,[30] and We made wide paths[31] in them that they may find their way;[32]

    30. For explanation, see (Surah An-Nahl, ayat 15) note 12.

    31. “Broad highways” are the passes between high mountains and the valleys and ravines made by the rivers in the mountainous regions and other natural ways that connect different regions on the earth.

    32. This is a very meaningful sentence. It may mean that the people may find paths for traveling on the earth, and it may also mean that the wisdom that underlies the skill and the system of their creation may guide them to the reality.

    (31) And We placed within the earth firmly set mountains, lest it should shift with them, and We made therein [mountain] passes [as] roads that they might be guided.
