Surah Al-Qiyamah Ayat 17 Tafsir (Commentry)



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

17. From this, emerge two issues:

1. The true compiler of the Holy Qur'aan is Allah Almighty, by collating it sequentially in the heart of the Holy Prophet ?

2. Prophet, his Noble Companions are the manifestation of Divine qualities of Allah Almighty. Their work is indeed the work of Allah Almighty because Allah Almighty revealed each Surah to the Holy Prophet separately together in scrolls.

Finally, Hazrat Uthman-e-Ghani collated these scrolls in the form of a book. But, all these deeds are referred to by Allah Almighty as His works. It should also be remembered that during the time of the Holy Prophe each tribe was given the permission to recite the Holy Qur'aan according to their own conventional expression, because it was not possible to change the verbal expression of everyone at one time.

During the period of Hazrat Uthman (May Allah be pleased with him) permission had remained for one form of recitation, because the difference in recitation had become the cause of mischief.

18. This means that first Allah Almighty gathered the Holy Qur'aan in the heart of the Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وآله وسل

Thereafte,its correct recitation became the responsibility of the Almighty.

From this, emerge two issues:

1. The Holy Prophet is the Divinely inspired Hafiz, Qari, scholar, and possessor of secrets of the Holy Qur'aan from Allah Almighty and is not the student of anyone from the entire creation.

2. Hazrat Jibraeel is the medium between Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet in conveying the message and he is not the tutor of the Holy Prophet .

For this reason he is the servant of the Holy Prophet In fact, due to his servitude to the Holy Prophet Hazrat Jibrael (On whom ? be peace) has gained the superiority over all the angels,
