1832. Commentary:
V. 25 above stated what disbelievers thought of the revelation sent down to the Holy Prophet. The present verse gives the opinion of the Faithful regarding the Quran in the words, They say, 'The best'. It must be remembered that the Faithful gave this testimony in favour of the Quran at Mecca where they were being bitterly persecuted for believing in it. A testimony given under such circumstances is entitled to the greatest possible respect. The Faithful were asked what they had found in the Book worth believing for which they were undergoing so much persecution, and the reply they invariably gave was that they had found it to be the Ideal Book, i.e. all that was essential for a perfect code of laws to contain was found in it or that this Book exceeded all their expectations.
The words, For those who do good, signify that a change in one’s attitude and outlook brings about a corresponding change in one’s deeds and actions. Disbelievers looked upon the Quran as a mere collection of tales, therefore they disregarded its warnings and consequently became deprived of all good. But believers looked upon it as خیر viz. the Ideal Book, so they acted upon it and thus reaped a good reward in this world and خیر i.e. the ideal reward, in the life to come. (close)

[c]Gardens of Eternity, which they will enter; through them flow streams. They will have therein what they wish for. Thus does Allah reward the righteous,[1833]
1833. Commentary:
The words جنات عدن (Gardens of eternity) signify that the abode of the righteous will beخیر i.e. ideal and perfect. It will necessarily be everlasting, for it is only the defective things that perish. For the meaning of جنات عدن see 9:72.
The clause, through them flow streams, should not be understood to mean that streams will flow through those gardens, for the mere flowing of streams might sometime prove a source of trouble. What is meant here is that the streams will be under the complete control of the Faithful.
The words, they will have therein what they wish for, mean that (1) they will be masters of those gardens and will enjoy perfect freedom and there will be none to rule over them; (2) they will be given whatever they may desire; i.e. their desires will become identified with God’s will, so they will desire only those things which it will be the will of God to give to them.

1837. Commentary:
In this verse a very common but very foolish objection of disbelievers has been mentioned, viz. if God had disapproved of their beliefs and actions, He should have weaned them by force from their idolatrous doctrines and deeds. Since He has not done so, it shows that He does not disapprove of them. Before proceeding to give a detailed answer in the next verse to this manifestly absurd contention, the Quran gives a general answer in this verse. The verse purports to say that if it had been the will of God to use force, His Prophets would have forced disbelievers to give up their idolatrous beliefs and evil practices. But not a single instance is on
record of a Prophet having employed force for the propagation of his religion and for compelling people to believe in him. (close)

[c]So travel through the earth, and see what was the end of those who treated the Prophets as liars![1838]
1838. Commentary:
This verse supplies several answers to the objection of disbelievers mentioned in the previous verse. The first answer is that God had raised Prophets among different peoples at different times and every one of these Prophets had taught the Unity of God. If the contention of disbelievers that polytheism was permitted and countenanced by God had any basis in fact then one or other of these Prophets should have subscribed to this doctrine. But all the Prophets most vehemently denounced polytheism in every shape and form.
The second answer is implied in the words, We did raise among every people a Messenger, which mean that if God had chosen to employ force in the matter of faith, then there was no need for so many Prophets to come to convey to man the will of God. One Prophet would have sufficed through whom God would have guided to the right path those whom He desired. The long succession of Prophets who appeared among different peoples at different times to exhort them to live righteous lives constitutes a strong proof that man is created a free agent.
The third answer is contained in the injunction "shun the Evil One". If it were true that good and evil had been predetermined by God and man is only the victim of determinism, there is no sense in such an injunction, and in sending so many Prophets, for in that case every man’s course would have been predetermined. The fourth answer consists in the fact that at the appearance of every Prophet a certain number of people who before his advent are polytheists renounce their wrong doctrines and become believers in the Unity of God. In the event of man’s actions having been predetermined, he could not possibly effect a change in his beliefs or actions. The fact that on the occasion of the advent of every Prophet a certain number of disbelievers join the ranks of believers is positive proof of the fact that man has been endowed with freewill and that he is the master of his own destiny.
Divine visitations that have invariably overtaken disbelievers in all ages constitute yet another very cogent proof that man has been created free and is not the object or victim of a predetermined fate because there is no sense or justification in punishment overtaking a person who is not free to act as he likes.

اِنۡ تَحۡرِصۡ عَلٰی ہُدٰٮہُمۡ فَاِنَّ اللّٰہَ لَا یَہۡدِیۡ مَنۡ یُّضِلُّ وَ مَا لَہُمۡ مِّنۡ نّٰصِرِیۡنَ ﴿۳۸﴾
إِن تَحۡرِصۡ عَلَىٰ هُدَىٰهُمۡ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يَهۡدِي مَن يُضِلُّۖ وَمَا لَهُم مِّن نَّـٰصِرِينَ

If thou art solicitous of their guidance, then know that Allah surely guides not those who lead others astray. And for such there are no helpers.

1839. Commentary:
In this verse the Holy Prophet and the Faithful are told that in spite of their intense desire all disbelievers would never believe because man is a free agent and because God does not compel anyone to adopt a definite course. Since He does not force anyone to disbelieve, He does not force anyone to believe either. Such compulsion would frustrate the very purpose of religion, viz. the attainment of inner purity. God has therefore decreed that He would not grant guidance to those who are engaged in misguiding others. Not only would He not force them to the true path but on the contrary He would deprive them of all sources of assistance.
The expression من یضل (who lead others astray) has been taken by some to mean "whom God adjudges as erring". Such a meaning would be in clear conflict with the sense of the preceding verse. The correct meaning is, "he who is engaged in misleading others". The subject of the verb یضل is not اللّٰه (Allah) but the word من (who) immediately preceding it. (close)

اگر تو ان کی ہدایت پر حریص ہے تو اللہ ان کو ہدایت نہیں دیتا جو گمراہ کرتے ہیں اور ان کے کوئی مددگار نہیں ہوں گے۔
اُردو تفسیر صغیر
(اے رسول) اگر تو ان (لوگوں) کی ہدایت کی بہت خواہش رکھتا ہے تو (سمجھ لے کہ) جو لوگ (دوسروں کو دانستہ) گمراہ کر رہے ہوں انہیں اللہ ہرگز ہدایت نہیں دیا کرتا اور نہ ان کا کوئی مددگار ہوتا ہے۔

Si tu es soucieux de leur direction, alors sache qu’Allāh ne guide assurément pas ceux qui égarent les autres. Et pour ceux-là il n’y a pas d’aides.
Español
Si deseas ardientemente guiarlos, sabe entonces que Al-lah no guía ciertamente a quienes extravían a otros. Para ellos no habrá socorredores.

Wenn du für sie den rechten Weg begehrst, dann (wisse, dass) Allah nicht jenen den Weg weist, die (andere) irreführen; noch gibt es für sie Helfer.
وَ اَقۡسَمُوۡا بِاللّٰہِ جَہۡدَ اَیۡمَانِہِمۡ ۙ لَا یَبۡعَثُ اللّٰہُ مَنۡ یَّمُوۡتُ ؕ بَلٰی وَعۡدًا عَلَیۡہِ حَقًّا وَّ لٰکِنَّ اَکۡثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا یَعۡلَمُوۡنَ ﴿ۙ۳۹﴾
وَأَقۡسَمُواْ بِٱللَّهِ جَهۡدَ أَيۡمَٰنِهِمۡ لَا يَبۡعَثُ ٱللَّهُ مَن يَمُوتُۚ بَلَىٰ وَعۡدًا عَلَيۡهِ حَقّٗا وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكۡثَرَ ٱلنَّاسِ لَا يَعۡلَمُونَ

And they swear by Allah their strongest oaths, that Allah will not raise up those who die. Nay, He will certainly raise them up — a promise He has made binding on Himself, but most people know not.
English Short Commentary
And they swear by Allah their strongest oaths, [b]that Allah will not raise up those who die. [c]Nay, He will certainly raise them up. This is a true promise the fulfilment of which is binding on Him but most men know not.

1840. Commentary:
This verse mentions another device of the leaders of disbelief to deceive their followers. Seeing the ground giving way from under their feet and their followers wavering, they, in order to reinforce their weak position, resort to affirming repeatedly on solemn oaths that they are in the right. They resort to this device to hearten their vacillating and wavering followers whose faith in them becomes undermined by strong and unanswerable arguments that they hear from their Prophet and believers about the untenability of their views.

اور انہوں نے اللہ کی پکی قسمیں کھائی ہیں کہ اللہ اسے پھر کبھی نہیں اٹھائے گا جو مرجائے گا۔ کیوں نہیں! یہ ایسا وعدہ ہے جسے پورا کرنا اس پر واجب ہے۔ لیکن اکثر لوگ نہیں جانتے۔
اُردو تفسیر صغیر
اور انہوں نے اللہ کی بڑی زوردار قسمیں کھائی ہیں (کہ) جو مر جائے اللہ اسے (پھر کبھی) زندہ نہیں کرے گا (مگر حقیقت) یوں نہیں۔ یہ (تو ایک ایسا) وعدہ ہے جس (کے پورا کرنے) کا وہ (اللہ) ذمہ وار ہے لیکن اکثر لوگ (اس حقیقت کو) نہیں جانتے۔

Sie schwören bei Allah ihre feierlichsten Eide, Allah werde jene nicht auferwecken, die sterben. Nicht doch, Ihn bindet ein Versprechen, jedoch die meisten Menschen wissen es nicht.
