Tafsir Ibn Kathir
Alama Imad ud Din Ibn Kathir
Tafsir ibn Kathir, is a classic Sunni Islam Tafsir (commentary of the Qur'an) by Imad ud
Din Ibn Kathir. It is considered to be a summary of the earlier Tafsir al-Tabari. It is
popular because it uses Hadith to explain each verse and chapter of the Qur'an…
Surah Al Infitar
The Virtues of Surah Al-Infitar
An-Nasa'i recorded from Jabir that Mu`adh stood and lead the people in the Night
prayer, and he made the recitation of his prayer long. So the Prophet said,
(Are you putting the people to trial O Mu`adh Why don't you recite
- ʄʋ (Glorify the Name of your Lord the Most High) (Surah 87),
- ˌ (By the forenoon) (Surah 93), and
- (When the heaven is cleft asunder) (Surah 82)''
and The basis of this Hadith is found in the Two Sahihs, however the mentioning of
(When the heaven is cleft asunder.) has only been mentioned by Nasa'i.
It has been previously mentioned in a narration from `Abdullah bin `Umar that the
Prophet said,
  ʋ           ö  º
Whoever would be pleased to look at the Day of Resurrection with his own
eyes, then let him recite,
- (When the sun is Kuwwirat.) (Surah 81)
- (When the heaven is cleft asunder) (Surah 82) and
- (When the heaven is split asunder) (Surah 84)."

Surah Infitar
(The Cleaving Asunder)
   ȸ  
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
1.
   
When the heaven is cleft asunder (Infatarat).
2.
   ʐ
And when the stars Intatharat.
3.
   
And when the seas Fujjirat.
4.
   
And when the graves Bu`thirat.
5.
        ʋ
A person will know what he has sent forward and left behind.
6.
           
O man! What has made you careless about your Lord, the Most Generous
7.
     
Who created you, fashioned you perfectly, and gave you due proportion.
8.
         
In whatever form He willed, He put you together.
3
9.
      ʅ
Nay! But you deny (the Day of) Ad-Din.
10.
  ʋ 
But verily, over you to watch you
11.
ʅ 
Kiraman Katibin,
12.
   
They know all that you do.
What will happen on the Day of Judgement
Allah says,
   ١
When the heaven is cleft asunder (Infatarat).
meaning, it splits.
This is as Allah says,
     
Whereon the heaven will be cleft asunder (Munfatir) (73:18)
Then Allah says,
   ʐ٢
And when the stars Intatharat. meaning, fallen.
   ٣
And when the seas Fujjirat.
Ali bin Abi Talhah reported from Ibn Abbas that he said,
"Allah will cause some of it to burst forth over other parts of it.''
Al-Hasan said,
4
"Allah will cause some parts of it to burst forth over other parts of it,
and its water will go away.''
Qatadah said,
"Its fresh water will mix with its salt water.''
   ٤
And when the graves Bu`thirat.
Ibn Abbas said, "searched.''
As-Suddi said,
"Tub`athiru means that they will be moved and those who are in them
will come out.''
        ʋ٥
A person will know what he has sent forward and left behind.
meaning, when this happens then this will occur.
Mankind should not forget about Allah. Allah says,
           ٦
O man!
What has made you careless about your Lord, the Most Generous?
This is a threat. It is not an attempt to get a reply as some people
mistakenly think. They consider it as if the Most Generous is asking
them so that they will say,
"His honor deceived him (or made him careless of his Lord).''
rather the meaning of this Ayah is,
"O Son of Adam!
What has deceived you from your Lord, the Most Generous -- meaning the
Most Great -- so that you went forth disobeying Him, and you met Him
with that which was unbefitting.''
This is similar to what has been reported in the Hadith,
       º
           
         
Allah will say on the Day of Judgement:
"O Son of Adam!
5
What has deceived you concerning Me?
O Son of Adam!
What was your response to the Messengers?''
Al-Baghawi mentioned that Al-Kalbi and Muqatil said,
"This Ayah was revealed about Al-Aswad bin Shariq who struck the
Prophet and he was not punished in retaliation. So Allah revealed,  
   ِ (What has made you careless about your Lord, the Most
Generous?)''
Then Allah said,
     ٧
Who created you, fashioned you perfectly, and gave you due proportion.
meaning,
`what has deceived you concerning the Most Generous Lord'
       
Who created you, fashioned you perfectly, and gave you due proportion.
meaning,
`He made you complete, straight, and perfectly balanced and proportioned in
stature. He fashioned you in the best of forms and shapes.'
Imam Ahmad recorded from Busr bin Jahhash Al-Qurashi that one day the
Messenger of Allah spat in his palm and placed his finger on it. Then he said,
     º             ʋ         ö          
     ­
 ˊ          º
     ¯
Allah the Mighty and Sublime says:
"O Son of Adam!
How can you escape Me when I created you from something similar to
this (spit) Then I fashioned you and made your creation balanced so
that you walked between the two outer garments. And the earth has a
burial place for you.
So you gathered (wealth) and withheld it until your soul reached your
collarbone (i.e., death comes). Then, at that time you say, `I will give
charity now.' But how will there be time for charity''
This Hadith has also been recorded by Ibn Majah .
6
Concerning Allah's statement,
         ٨
In whatever form He willed, He put you together.
Mujahid said,
"In which resemblance: the father, the mother, the paternal uncle, or the
maternal uncle.''
In the Two Sahihs it is recorded from Abu Hurayrah that a man said,
"O Messenger of Allah! Verily, my wife has given birth to a black boy.''
The Prophet said, Do you have any camels?
The man said, "Yes.''
The Prophet then said, What color are they?
The man said, "Red.''
The Prophet said, ¯ Do any of them have patches of gray?
The man said, "Yes.''
The Prophet asked him, How did this happen to them?
The man replied, "It is probably an inherited genetical strain.''
The Prophet then said, ˒ ¯ Likewise, this (with your son) is
probably an inherited genetical strain.
Concerning Allah's statement,
ʅ     ٩
Nay! But you deny (the Day of) Ad-Din.
meaning, `you are only compelled to oppose the Most Generous and meet
Him with disobedience, by your rejection in your hearts of the Hereafter,
the recompense and the reckoning.'
Concerning Allah's statement,
  ʋ ١٠
ʅ ١١
   ١٢
7
But verily, over you to watch you (are) Kiraman Katibin, they know all that
you do.
meaning,
`indeed there are noble guardian angels over you, so do not meet them
with evil deeds, because they write down all that you do.'
13.
     
Verily, the Abrar (the righteous believers) will be in Delight;
14.
     
And verily, the wicked will be in the blazing Fire (Hell),
15.
   
Therein they will enter, and taste its burning flame on the Day of Recompense,
16.
     
And they will not be absent therefrom.
17.
       
And what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is?
18.
         
Again, what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is?
19.
ۖ  ʎ          
(It will be) the Day when no person shall have power for another,
ȸ   
and the Decision, that Day, will be with Allah.
8
The Reward of the Righteous and the Sinners Allah informs of what the
righteous will receive of delight.
     ١٣
     ١٤
Verily, the Abrar (the righteous believers) will be in Delight;
And verily, the wicked will be in the blazing Fire (Hell),
They are those who obeyed Allah and did not meet Him with disobedience
(sins). Then He mentions that the evildoers will be in Hell and eternal
torment.
Due to this He says,
   ١٥
Therein they will enter, and taste its burning flame on the Day of
Recompense,
meaning, the Day of Reckoning, Recompense, and Judgement.
     ١٦
And they will not be absent therefrom.
meaning, they will not be absent for even one hour from the torment. The
torment will not be lightened from them, nor will they be granted the
death that they will be requesting, or any rest -- not even for a single day.
Allah then says,
       ١٧
And what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is?
This is a magnification of the affair of the Day of Judgement.
Then Allah affirms it by saying,
         ١٨
Again, what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is?
Then He explains this by saying,
ʎ          ®®®
(It will be) the Day when no person shall have power for another,
9
meaning, no one will be able to benefit anyone else, or help him out of
that which he will be in, unless Allah gives permission to whomever He
wishes and is pleased with.
We will mention here a Hadith where the Prophet said,
ʎ                        
O children of Hashim!
Save yourselves from the Fire, for I have no power to cause you any
benefit from Allah.
This has been mentioned previously at the end of the Tafsir of Surah Ash-
Shu`ara' (see 26:214).
Thus, Allah says,
ȸ   ١٩
and the Decision, that Day, will be with Allah.
"By Allah, the Decision is for Allah today (now), but on that Day no
one will try to dispute with Him about it.''
This is the end of the Tafsir of Surah Al-Infitar. All praise and blessings are due to Allah,
and He is the Giver of success and freedom from error.

So the Prophet said, (Are you putting the people to trial O Mu`adh Why don't you recite - ʄʋ (Glorify the Name of your Lord the Most High) (Surah 87), - ˌ (By the forenoon) (Surah 93), and - (When the heaven is cleft asunder) (Surah 82)'' and The basis of this Hadith is found in the Two Sahihs, however the mentioning of (When the heaven is cleft asunder.) has only been mentioned by Nasa'i. It has been previously mentioned in a narration from `Abdullah bin `Umar that the Prophet said,   ʋ           ö  º Whoever would be pleased to look at the Day of Resurrection with his own eyes, then let him recite, - (When the sun is Kuwwirat.) (Surah 81) - (When the heaven is cleft asunder) (Surah 82) and - (When the heaven is split asunder) (Surah 84)."
  • 2. 2 Surah Infitar (The Cleaving Asunder)    ȸ   In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. 1.     When the heaven is cleft asunder (Infatarat). 2.    ʐ And when the stars Intatharat. 3.     And when the seas Fujjirat. 4.     And when the graves Bu`thirat. 5.         ʋ A person will know what he has sent forward and left behind. 6.             O man! What has made you careless about your Lord, the Most Generous 7.       Who created you, fashioned you perfectly, and gave you due proportion. 8.           In whatever form He willed, He put you together.
  • 3. 3 9.       ʅ Nay! But you deny (the Day of) Ad-Din. 10.   ʋ  But verily, over you to watch you 11. ʅ  Kiraman Katibin, 12.     They know all that you do. What will happen on the Day of Judgement Allah says,    ١ When the heaven is cleft asunder (Infatarat). meaning, it splits. This is as Allah says,       Whereon the heaven will be cleft asunder (Munfatir) (73:18) Then Allah says,    ʐ٢ And when the stars Intatharat. meaning, fallen.    ٣ And when the seas Fujjirat. Ali bin Abi Talhah reported from Ibn Abbas that he said, "Allah will cause some of it to burst forth over other parts of it.'' Al-Hasan said,
  • 4. 4 "Allah will cause some parts of it to burst forth over other parts of it, and its water will go away.'' Qatadah said, "Its fresh water will mix with its salt water.''    ٤ And when the graves Bu`thirat. Ibn Abbas said, "searched.'' As-Suddi said, "Tub`athiru means that they will be moved and those who are in them will come out.''         ʋ٥ A person will know what he has sent forward and left behind. meaning, when this happens then this will occur. Mankind should not forget about Allah. Allah says,            ٦ O man! What has made you careless about your Lord, the Most Generous? This is a threat. It is not an attempt to get a reply as some people mistakenly think. They consider it as if the Most Generous is asking them so that they will say, "His honor deceived him (or made him careless of his Lord).'' rather the meaning of this Ayah is, "O Son of Adam! What has deceived you from your Lord, the Most Generous -- meaning the Most Great -- so that you went forth disobeying Him, and you met Him with that which was unbefitting.'' This is similar to what has been reported in the Hadith,        º                       Allah will say on the Day of Judgement: "O Son of Adam!
  • 5. 5 What has deceived you concerning Me? O Son of Adam! What was your response to the Messengers?'' Al-Baghawi mentioned that Al-Kalbi and Muqatil said, "This Ayah was revealed about Al-Aswad bin Shariq who struck the Prophet and he was not punished in retaliation. So Allah revealed,      ِ (What has made you careless about your Lord, the Most Generous?)'' Then Allah said,      ٧ Who created you, fashioned you perfectly, and gave you due proportion. meaning, `what has deceived you concerning the Most Generous Lord'         Who created you, fashioned you perfectly, and gave you due proportion. meaning, `He made you complete, straight, and perfectly balanced and proportioned in stature. He fashioned you in the best of forms and shapes.' Imam Ahmad recorded from Busr bin Jahhash Al-Qurashi that one day the Messenger of Allah spat in his palm and placed his finger on it. Then he said,      º             ʋ         ö                ­  ˊ          º      ¯ Allah the Mighty and Sublime says: "O Son of Adam! How can you escape Me when I created you from something similar to this (spit) Then I fashioned you and made your creation balanced so that you walked between the two outer garments. And the earth has a burial place for you. So you gathered (wealth) and withheld it until your soul reached your collarbone (i.e., death comes). Then, at that time you say, `I will give charity now.' But how will there be time for charity'' This Hadith has also been recorded by Ibn Majah .
  • 6. 6 Concerning Allah's statement,          ٨ In whatever form He willed, He put you together. Mujahid said, "In which resemblance: the father, the mother, the paternal uncle, or the maternal uncle.'' In the Two Sahihs it is recorded from Abu Hurayrah that a man said, "O Messenger of Allah! Verily, my wife has given birth to a black boy.'' The Prophet said, Do you have any camels? The man said, "Yes.'' The Prophet then said, What color are they? The man said, "Red.'' The Prophet said, ¯ Do any of them have patches of gray? The man said, "Yes.'' The Prophet asked him, How did this happen to them? The man replied, "It is probably an inherited genetical strain.'' The Prophet then said, ˒ ¯ Likewise, this (with your son) is probably an inherited genetical strain. Concerning Allah's statement, ʅ     ٩ Nay! But you deny (the Day of) Ad-Din. meaning, `you are only compelled to oppose the Most Generous and meet Him with disobedience, by your rejection in your hearts of the Hereafter, the recompense and the reckoning.' Concerning Allah's statement,   ʋ ١٠ ʅ ١١    ١٢
  • 7. 7 But verily, over you to watch you (are) Kiraman Katibin, they know all that you do. meaning, `indeed there are noble guardian angels over you, so do not meet them with evil deeds, because they write down all that you do.' 13.       Verily, the Abrar (the righteous believers) will be in Delight; 14.       And verily, the wicked will be in the blazing Fire (Hell), 15.     Therein they will enter, and taste its burning flame on the Day of Recompense, 16.       And they will not be absent therefrom. 17.         And what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is? 18.           Again, what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is? 19. ۖ  ʎ           (It will be) the Day when no person shall have power for another, ȸ    and the Decision, that Day, will be with Allah.
  • 8. 8 The Reward of the Righteous and the Sinners Allah informs of what the righteous will receive of delight.      ١٣      ١٤ Verily, the Abrar (the righteous believers) will be in Delight; And verily, the wicked will be in the blazing Fire (Hell), They are those who obeyed Allah and did not meet Him with disobedience (sins). Then He mentions that the evildoers will be in Hell and eternal torment. Due to this He says,    ١٥ Therein they will enter, and taste its burning flame on the Day of Recompense, meaning, the Day of Reckoning, Recompense, and Judgement.      ١٦ And they will not be absent therefrom. meaning, they will not be absent for even one hour from the torment. The torment will not be lightened from them, nor will they be granted the death that they will be requesting, or any rest -- not even for a single day. Allah then says,        ١٧ And what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is? This is a magnification of the affair of the Day of Judgement. Then Allah affirms it by saying,          ١٨ Again, what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is? Then He explains this by saying, ʎ          ®®® (It will be) the Day when no person shall have power for another,
  • 9. 9 meaning, no one will be able to benefit anyone else, or help him out of that which he will be in, unless Allah gives permission to whomever He wishes and is pleased with. We will mention here a Hadith where the Prophet said, ʎ                         O children of Hashim! Save yourselves from the Fire, for I have no power to cause you any benefit from Allah. This has been mentioned previously at the end of the Tafsir of Surah Ash- Shu`ara' (see 26:214). Thus, Allah says, ȸ   ١٩ and the Decision, that Day, will be with Allah. "By Allah, the Decision is for Allah today (now), but on that Day no one will try to dispute with Him about it.'' This is the end of the Tafsir of Surah Al-Infitar. All praise and blessings are due to Allah, and He is the Giver of success and freedom from error. ********* © Copy Rights: Zahid Javed Rana, Abid Javed Rana Lahore, Pakistan www.quran4u.com
