The Interpretation of Imam al-Tabari - may God have mercy on him -
God Almighty says: Then came to them the torment that they had been threatened with because of their disbelief in Our signs and their denial of Our Messenger. (What availed them) He says: What availed them of the delay that We delayed in their time, And the enjoyment that We gave them of life, since they did not repent of their polytheism, did our enjoyment of this add to them anything but ruin? Did it benefit them at all? Rather, it harmed them by increasing their sins and acquiring crimes that had not been enjoyed, they would not have acquired.
God Almighty says: (And We destroyed not any town) of these towns described in these surahs (except for them are warners). He says: Except after We had sent to them messengers warning them of Our punishment for their disbelief and Our displeasure with them. (Remembrance) He says: Except for it have warners who warn them, as a reminder to them and a warning to them of what will save them from Our torment.
And We were not unjust. He says: And We were not unjust to them in tormenting them and destroying them, for We only destroyed them, because they rebelled against us, disbelieved in our blessings, and worshiped others after excusing them and warning them, and continuing with arguments against them that they should not do that, so they refused except to persist in wrongdoing, And His saying: (And the devils did not descend for it) God Almighty says: And the devils did not descend upon Muhammad with this Qur’an, but it was sent down by the Faithful Spirit. (And it is not appropriate for them) He says: And it is not appropriate for the devils to descend upon him, This is not suitable for them. (And they cannot) He says: And they cannot bring him down, because they cannot hear him in the place he is in in heaven. (They are isolated from hearing) He says: The devils are unable to hear the Qur’an from the place.
On the authority of Qatada, in his saying: (And what the devils sent down) he said: This is the Qur’an. In his saying (they are cut off from hearing) he said: from the hearing of heaven.
God Almighty says in His mention of His Prophet Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace: (Do not call upon, O Muhammad, any other god with God), that is, do not worship with Him any deity other than Him (for you will be among those who are tormented), and the same punishment will befall you as was befallen those who disobeyed our command and worshiped others. And his saying: (And warn your closest family) God Almighty says to his Prophet Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace: And warn your tribe of your people who are closest to you by blood, and warn them of Our punishment that will befall them because of their disbelief, It was reported that when this verse was revealed, he started with the sons of his grandfather Abdul Muttalib and his sons, so he warned and admonished them.
On the authority of Aisha, she said: When this verse was revealed: (And warn your closest relatives), the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “O Safiyya bint Abdul Muttalib, O Fatima, daughter of Muhammad, O children of Abdul Muttalib I do not possess anything for you from God, so ask me of my wealth whatever you wish.”
Banu Hashim, I am not among you. You come to me carrying this world, and people come carrying the Hereafter. Indeed, my guardians are among you the pious, so fear the Fire, even if it is just half a date, On the authority of Ibn Jurayj, he said: When this verse was revealed, he started with his family and his family; He said: This was difficult for the Muslims, so God Almighty revealed: (And lower your wings to those of the believers who follow you.) And his saying: (And lower your wings) means: And turn your side and your words (to those of the believers who follow you).
On the authority of Ibn Jurayj, on the authority of Mujahid, his saying: (He who sees you when you stand up) said: Wherever you are.
(And the poets are followed by the misguided.) He said: They are the infidels, followed by the misguidance of the jinn and mankind.
On the authority of Tamim al-Dari, he said: When it was revealed: (And the poets are followed by the deviants), he said: Hassan bin Thabit, Abdullah bin Rawahah, and Ka’b bin Malik came to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, and they were crying, They said: God knew when He revealed this verse that I am poets, so the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, recited: (Except those who believe and do righteous deeds and remember Allah often And they were victorious after they were wronged, and those who wronged will know to what revolt they will turn.)
Latest interpretation of Surat Ash-Shu'ara
A view around the verses
(207) And We destroyed not a city except that it had warners. (208) A reminder, and We were not unjust.
Do you remember the previous page (they were enjoying the most intense types of enjoyment, and you looked at them with regret, perhaps because of their injustice to you or their disbelief, yet they enjoyed themselves... etc. for reasons... God - glory be to Him - says: What they used to enjoy was of no use to them... so do you believe him?
We destroyed not a single town except that it had warners
In most cases, God, like God, only destroys unjust villages whose people were oppressive and affluent, and this has happened throughout human history, as the news has repeatedly reported. As for what is happening now in terms of the demolition and destruction of Islamic villages based on Islam and on enjoining good and forbidding evil, goodness and righteousness among its people, they are nothing but the actions of infidels. The infidels have hatred for the faithful servants of God and they do them individually and in groups. Don’t you remember with me what God Almighty said? (And when those who disbelieved were fixed you to prove that you, or they will kill you or expel you. And they plot, and Allah plots. And Allah is the best of planners. (30) Would you please return your eyes to the verse again? (They have three main verbs. Whenever you go through your life’s journey or see the lives of others, you will find that these verbs are prevalent: They fixed you: That is, they make your life fixed so that you do not move forward, or attempt murder or actual murder, or expel you from your country...) Such are the actions of the infidels with the faithful servants of God, Don't you see with me that what is happening in Muslim countries, count with me and do not be sad, for these are periods of severe testing, and then this religion will prevail, even if you see all this destruction in front of you, (Syria - Libya “A devastating earthquake that may be industrial” - Unhappy Yemen - Lebanon “Financial recession + Beirut explosion” Turkey “Earthquake that may be industrial - Palestine...) The list can be expanded.
Remembrance, and we were not unjust
As for the natural tsunami that occurs - even if due to climate change - it is a natural earthquake, not artificial, even if due to global warming, Increasing the temperature of the Earth and other natural phenomena, here, remember the Almighty’s saying: This is just a reminder: By God - His Majesty is Majestic: No one is oppressed -
And the devils did not send it down (210) and it is not should for them and they are not able (211)
That is, what was sent down by the Wise Qur’an (the devils) from the sky, and they cannot reach the place of the Preserved Tablet in the first place, so they shoot meteors from the sky when they try to approach.
Indeed, they are isolated from hearing. (212) So do not call upon any other god with God, lest you be among those who are tormented. (213)
If you follow the lying nations: you will find that the most important thing they do is to disable the ability to hear. He tells you: I do not want to hear, so that nothing reaches him that he hears that may guide him one day. God - His Majesty - described this action, They are isolated from hearing. Then the Qur’an addressed Muhammad - may God bless him and grant him peace - and said: Do not call upon another god with God. Is it possible for Muhammad, with his love for God Almighty, to call upon another god with God? This is a warning to him and to his nation - may God bless him and grant him peace - so she will be among those who are tormented. It has been said: Whoever loves something besides God will inevitably be punished for it, and the mother of Muhammad does not worship trees or stones, but worships other idols, what was mentioned in Surat Al-Tawbah, God Almighty said (Say, “If your fathers and your children, and your brothers, your wives, and your clan, And money you have acquired and trade whose decline you fear, and dwellings that you enjoy are more beloved to you than Allah and His Messenger and jihad in His cause, So wait until God brings His command. And God does not guide the disobedient people. (24) Eight things we worship instead of God. Here are their details:
1 - The parents
Do we worship our fathers? Yes, when they are oppressors or polytheists or keep us away from the path of God, and it is our interest and our inheritance from Him: we worship Him instead of God without realizing it for our own interest, and of course if the interest of the law and the interest of this father conflict.
2 - 3 - 4 sons/brothers/husbands
Yes, when we do not condemn their acts of disbelief and injustice, but we are satisfied and eat and drink with them as if they are the best people, unless you have the intention of reforming them - my heart is not satisfied - and the intention of using the weapon of good manners with them, and of course if interests conflict... and God is Most High and All-Knowing.
A tribe - a class - a group - or the people among whom you grew up
If you take its orders above the orders of God - the Almighty - you associate another god with God, of course if the interests conflict between the interests of the Sharia and your personal interests.
6- Money you have occurred
Did you earn money legitimately or illegitimately? If it was illegitimately, you broke the word of God regarding His creation, and exalted the word of your immediate self-interest, then you worshiped money instead of God.
7- A trade that you fear will stagnate
The Messenger of God - may God bless him and grant him peace - said: “If you sell for cash (i.e., you sell for cash at a lower price, which is a type of usury) and you take the tails of cows, And you were satisfied with the crops and abandoned jihad, God imposed upon you humiliation that He will not remove until you return to your religion.”*
8- The residences you like
Comfortable - luxurious - residences have all the luxuries...etc. If all your concern is to taste this house and prepare it for guests and put all your money into it, you have worshiped your house instead of God.
What is the solution then? We are all stuck in this, and it is our life and we cannot escape from it?
The solution: is to harness everything you have to please God, even if you find problems in your life and God loves you: He will not leave you unless you complete what He wants from you, even if He hates you, If you find yourself far from God, far from His path - Glory be to Him - and He is giving you, know that He has kept you far away and is luring you from where you do not know, and even if He takes you, no one will escape you from His grip, Oh God, use us in the things you love most, and suffice us from what is important to us.
And warn your closest kindred (214)
That is, not only fathers, children, husbands, and brothers, but rather it extends to the entire clan close to you. The warning does not include advice: it is only notification, and the warning: It informs you of the consequences, and you do not have to do anything after that, and God is Most High and All-Knowing, unless your children are young in your care, or your wife is responsible for you, or something else.
And lower your wings to those of the believers who follow you (215)
The wing is not one of the attributes of a human being, but rather one of the attributes of a bird. God Almighty and His Messenger likened us to a bird, so the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, likened us to a bird because we have two wings with which we fly on our journey of faith with God, Almighty - they are the wing of fear and the wing of hope, and they must be balanced in order for us to fly and not fall. As for God - glory be to Him - here in this verse, He likens it to a bird that descends from a height to a lower, reducing its flight, lowering its speed, and lowering the intensity of its concentration so that it reaches the ground safely, you are required as a believer: to do this with the faithful servants of God. Why? God Almighty says in more than one place in the Qur’an: (And those who gave shelter and helped - these are allies of one another.) And those who disbelieve are allies of others. Unless you do it, there will be a trial on earth and great corruption (73) My fellow believer: The first part of the verse (This is a command: Those who gave shelter and supported those are allies of one another: I hear you saying: These are the Muhajireen and the Ansar, and now: Are there no forced migrants? Is there no Ansar among us? (Those who disbelieve are allies of one another) Don’t you see a unified currency, a country without borders, a unified economy, unified trade, and other interests? And we, as believers, fight each other. This one did not shorten his clothes, and this one did not lengthen her veil, and this and that and this and that. Should we not be ashamed of God? Two-thirds of the population of planet Earth alone do not worship God, and we are the chosen third (this is sarcasm). we worship God in one letter, and if He gives us, we will be satisfied and say so. He is God, and if it was taken away from us, we said: Why are we believers? You are required to: lower your wings to the believers, for you need them as they need you, then remember (If you do not do it, there will be a trial on earth and a great destruction) Peace be upon you, you who read these words, and grant us peace for protection, support, and the commands of God, so lower your wing to the believers.
If they disobey you, say, “I am innocent of what you do.” (216)
If they disobey you, O Muhammad - may God bless him and grant him peace, O caller to God, O Sheikh, O teacher of generations: If they disobey you, he will be disowned, but have you really worked hard for the sake of the brotherhood of faith?
And put your trust in the Mighty, the Most Merciful (217) He who sees you when you stand (218) and turns you among those who prostrate (219) Indeed, He is the Hearer, the Knower (220)
Trust: To see God in something when you do not see Him, to take reasons and consider them as nothing, to move with strength, purpose, and high concentration, as if you were alone in this life. The entire surah, Surat Ash-Shu’ara, narrates about the Almighty: the victorious, the rare in existence, whom everything needs and does not need. For anything, when you put your trust in the Almighty (Al - Aziz), and although He is subduer of His servants, believers and non-believers, He is Merciful (Al Rahman) to the believers at the time of their salvation, and Merciful (Al - Raheem) to those who believe in Him - Glory be to Him - exclusively on the Day of Resurrection, And remember (And put your trust in the Mighty, the Merciful: This is a matter, so do not underestimate it.)
Who sees you when you stand
You stand up from a gathering in which you were sitting, alone or with a group, or you stand up for worship, or you stand up for your livelihood in this life, and he sees your turning among the prostrating people: do not let him lose you, God forbid, if you have not prayed a single prayer to God, then today, so there is no excuse or knowledge of where we are. tomorrow.
He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing
Hearing what is going on in your soul, knowledgeable of your religion.
Shall I inform you upon whom the devils descend? (221) It descends upon everyone who fabricates a lie, he is sinful (222) They distort what is heard, but most of them are liars (223)
I told you that the devils cannot reach the Preserved Tablet, so I would take the Qur’an and reveal it to Muhammad - may God’s prayers and peace be upon him - instead of the Trustee of the Revelation (our master Gabriel, peace be upon him). The devils do indeed descend, but not on the believers, but on all your evil deeds: a lot of fabrication of lies. Sinful: one who commits many sins.
And the poets are followed by the erring ones (224)
Who are the poets? Are they prominent writers in the field of poetry and singing? Are they the ones who recite poetry to the masses, or are they both together? Whom God Almighty speaks about in this verse: They are the poets of pre-Islamic times, they are the poets of low-quality music, they are poets without the meaning of poetry, and therefore those who follow them are the misguided.
Have you not seen that in every valley they wander (225) and that they say what they do not do (226)
We said and we always say that the word (Didn't you see?)
In the Qur’an, God - the Almighty - tells you to take care of your hearing and your sight for what will come next, because of course you did not see this with your own eyes, and God wants you to see with His eyes - Glory be to Him -
They roam in every valley
That is, they criticize and praise according to their whims, not according to what is required by the higher interests of the righteous and not the elite and the corrupt.
Except those who believe and do righteous deeds and remember Allah often and are victorious after they have been wronged. And those who wronged will know to what revolt they will turn (227)
Except those who believe and do righteous deeds
He is one of the rare poets who praises what should be praised, and criticizes what should be criticized, even if it affects their lives.
They mentioned God a lot
And they were victorious after they were wronged
Your individual/collective victory: It is inevitably coming, for you are one of (and only a few believed with him), even if the nation of Muhammad was many. God willing, you are one of the few believers who are dear to God. Your victory does not come except after injustice. This is what life has taught us. Great victories are come after great injustice, and if it comes to you, know that you are among those deserving of victory from God, for God does not bequeath His victory except to whomever He wants, whenever He wants.
And it will teach those who wronged a return which will they overturn
Surah Ash-Shu'ara ended and briefly taught us the following:
1 - The beloved never belittles his beloved. This is Muhammad - may God’s prayers and peace be upon him - who revealed a complete surah with which he would entertain his Messenger in order to calm him down due to the denial, accusation and torture he was receiving from his people, and you: Did your people accuse you of something you did not do: accuse you of insanity or or or or? Know that God - the Almighty - will also bless you, if you walk in the flow of God and with God’s blessing, then you will be thrown into a little hell in life.
2 - Surah Ash-Shu’ara taught us: that everything has an end and a consequence. This is how the wheels revolve around the messengers and the believers with them, and the outcome is for the believers.
3 - Surat Al-Shu’ara taught us: That you have a duty in this situation like Moses - peace be upon him (Go to Pharaoh, he is a tyrant). We all live in circles that are not all correct or sound in aspect. If you find a corrupt circle in your surroundings, you must go, and God is with you, hearing and seeing.
4 - Surat Al-Shu’ara taught us: that poets who present good words to humanity are respected by God before people, and in the hadith: “Indeed, eloquence is magic. Some words raise, repel, and intercede, and some words bring a person down to the borders of the seventh earth, so guard your pen except for the best.”
Surah Ash-Shu'ara was completed by the grace of God alone.
