Tafsir Ibn Kathir

Verse range: 39:19

Open in Qurani

Allah says,

أفمن حق عليه كلمة العذاب أفٲنت تنقذ من في النار

Is, then one against whom the Word of punishment is justified (equal to the one who avoids evil)? Will you rescue him who is in the Fire? Allah says, `if He has decreed that someone is to be doomed, can you save him from his misguidance and doom?' Which means, no one can guide him apart from Allah, because whomever Allah leaves astray cannot be guided, and whomever He guides cannot be led astray
