Surah Az-Zumar Ayat 60 Tafsir (Commentry)



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

148. That he tried to prove a partner and children for Him. Or, that he said His Prophets are false. To call the Prophets liars, is in reality, calling Allah Almighty a liar, because Allah Almighty is calling them true. The verification of a liar, too, is false.

 

149. From this, emerge two issues: 

1. Blackening the faces would be for the infidels. Althougha  the sinful believers will be kept in Hell for a while, Allah Almighty will not blacken their faces, as in it there is disgrace for the Ummah of the Holy Prophet  ?

2. On the Day of Judgensent there will be a Complete visible distinction between the believers and the infidels. Without asking, it would be made known. Thus to say that on the Day of Judgement the Holy Prophet will not be able to identify between the believers and the infidels is  incorrect Says Allah Almighty. "The culprit will be recognized by their fac es"(S55:V41).

 

Ibn-Kathir

60. And on the Day of Resurrection you will see those who lied against Allah – their faces will be black. Is there not in Hell an abode for the arrogant 61. And Allah will deliver those who have Taqwa to their places of success. Evil shall touch them not, nor shall they grieve.


The Consequences for Those Who tell Lies against Allah and for Those Who have Taqwa

Allah tells us that on the Day of Resurrection, some faces will be blackened and some will be whitened. The faces of those who followed splits and divisions will be blackened, and the faces of Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jama`ah will be whitened. Allah says here:

﴿وَيَوْمَ الْقِيَـمَةِ تَرَى الَّذِينَ كَذَبُواْ عَلَى اللَّهِ﴾

(And on the Day of Resurrection you will see those who lied against Allah) meaning, by their claims that He had partners or offspring.

﴿وُجُوهُهُم مُّسْوَدَّةٌ﴾

(their faces will be black.) means, because of their lies and fabrications.

﴿أَلَيْسَ فِى جَهَنَّمَ مَثْوًى لِّلْمُتَكَبِّرِينَ﴾

(Is there not in Hell an abode for the arrogant) means, is not Hell sufficient for them as a prison and humiliating final destination, because of their stubborn pride, arrogance and refusal to follow the truth

﴿وَيُنَجِّى اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ اتَّقَوْاْ بِمَفَازَتِهِمْ﴾

(And Allah will deliver those who are those who have Taqwa to their places of success.) means, because of what Allah has decreed for them of happiness and victory.

﴿لاَ يَمَسُّهُمُ السُّوءُ﴾

(Evil shall touch them not, ) means, on the Day of Resurrection.

﴿وَلاَ هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ﴾

(nor shall they grieve.) means, the greater terror (of that Day) will not cause them grief, for they will be safe from all grief and removed from all evil, and they will attain all that is good.

(39:60) On the Day of Resurrection you shall see that the faces of those who had lied against Allah have turned dark. Is Hell not vast enough to provide a room to the vainglorious?

Ala-Maududi

(39:60) On the Day of Resurrection you shall see that the faces of those who had lied against Allah have turned dark. Is Hell not vast enough to provide a room to the vainglorious?
