Surah Al-Isra Ayat 72 Tafsir (Commentry)



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

159. This means whose hearts were sealed in the world and did not accept guidance, he will be blind in the Hereafter too from seeing the path of salvation and paradise. In fact, there his blindness will be greater, because while in the world there was a possibility of obtaining guidance but this would not be possible in the Hereafter. Thus this verse does not contradict "So today your sight is sharp" (S50:V22). The outward eyes of everything on that day will be sharp.
