Surah Saad Ayat 74 Tafsir (Commentry)

  • Ibn Kathir
  • Ala-Madudi
  • Shaheen International

128. From this, emerge two issues:

1. To regard oneself as greater or equal to the Prophet is the work of the devil;

 2. The one who insults the Prophet, whether he is a scholar or a Sufi or a devoted worshipper would be regarded as the devil. The devil was everything, but after insulting the Prophet he was reduced to a zero.

129. In the knowledge of Allah Almighty, the devil was reduced to a cursed being after rebelliousness appeared in him. 

Hence, not expelling the hypocrites from his blessed gathering was not due to the lack of knowledge of the Holy Prophet ﷺ , Allah Almighty too had not expelled the devil prior to his disobedience.
