    Surah An-Nisa Ayat 164 Tafsir (Commentry)

    • Shaheen International

    469.In this verse,, the negation is in respect of discussion and not concerning providing knowledge. The Holy Prophet is provided with knowledge about all the Prophets.

    On the night of Me'raj, all these Prophets performed Salaah behind the Holy Prophet. Says Allah Almighty: "All that we relate to you of the tidings of the messengers. (S11:V120) The gist of the matter is Allah has provided detailed information in the Holy QURAN about some Prophets, and about some, no details are provided as yet. But this does not mean that in future their details will not be known. 

    470. From this emerge two issues:

    1. Amongst the Prophets of the Israelites Hazrat Musa (On whom be peace) possesses great dignity and splendor, as discussion about him is made separately for the purpose of distinction.

    2. That Almighty Allah has blessed some Prophets with special bounties. It is wrong to look for one Prophet's distinctive feature in all the Prophet's. Remember, every Prophet cannot be Allah Almighty's interlocutor KALEEM-UL-LLAH which is the title of Hazrat Musa (On whom be peace) only.

     

    Ibn-Kathir

    The tafsir of Surah Nisa verse 164 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
    Please refer to Surah Nisa ayat 163 which provides the complete commentary from verse 163 through 165.

    (4:164) We revealed to the Messengers We have already told you of, and to the Messengers We have not told you of; and to Moses Allah spoke directly.[206]

    Ala-Maududi

    (4:164) We revealed to the Messengers We have already told you of, and to the Messengers We have not told you of; and to Moses Allah spoke directly.[206]

    206. Revelation in the case of other Prophets meant either that they heard a voice or received a message from an angel. The privileged treatment accorded to Moses was that God communicated with him directly. This communication was similar to one that takes place between two persons, as is fully illustrated by the conversation reported in (Surah TaHa, ayat 11). This unique privilege of Moses is mentioned in the Bible as well, and in much the same manner. It mentions that the Lord used to speak to Moses ‘face to face, as a man speaks to his friend’ (Exodus 33: 11).

    (164) And [We sent] messengers about whom We have related [their stories] to you before and messengers about whom We have not related to you. And Allāh spoke to Moses with [direct] speech.
