Tafsir of Al-Nas 114:6

٦

Of Jinn and An-Nas. Is this explanatory of Allah's statement,

الذى يوسوس فى صدور الناس

Who whispers in the breasts of An-Nas. Then, Allah explains this by saying,

من الجنة والناس

Of Jinn and An-Nas. This is supportive of the second view. It has also been said that Allah's saying,

من الجنة والناس

Of Jinn and An-Nas, is an explanation of who is it that whispers into the breasts of mankind from the devils of mankind and Jinns. This is similar to Allah's saying,

وكذلك جعلنا لكل نبى عدوا شيطين اﻻنس والجن يوحى بعضهم إلى بعض زخرف القول غرورا

And so We have appointed for every Prophet enemies -- Shayatin among mankind and Jinn, inspiring one another with adorned speech as a delusion. (6:112) Imam Ahmad recorded that Ibn Abbas said, "A man came to the Prophet and said, `O Messenger of Allah! Sometimes I say things to myself that I would rather fall from the sky than say (aloud openly). ' The Prophet said,

الله أكبر الله أكبر الحمد لله الذي رد كيده إلى الوسوسة

Allah is Most Great! Allah is Most Great! All praise is due to Allah Who sent his (Shaytan's) plot back as only a whisper.'' Abu Dawud and An-Nasa'i also recorded this Hadith. This is the end of the Tafsir. All praise and thanks are due to Allah, the Lord of all that exists. Top
