Tafsir
Verse range: 42:5
تكاد السماوات يتفطرن من فوقهن
Nearly the heavens might be rent asunder from above them, Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, Ad-Dahhak, Qatadah, As-Suddi and Ka`b Al-Ahbar said, "Out of fear of His might.''
والمﻼيكة يسبحون بحمد ربهم ويستغفرون لمن في اﻻرض
and the angels glorify the praises of their Lord, and ask for forgiveness for those on the earth. This is like the Ayah:
الذين يحملون العرش ومن حوله يسبحون بحمد ربهم ويومنون به ويستغفرون للذين ءامنوا ربنا وسعت كل شء رحمة وعلما
Those who bear the Throne and those around it glorify the praises of their Lord, and believe in Him, and ask forgiveness for those who believe (saying): "Our Lord! You comprehend all things in mercy and knowledge,'' (40:7)
أﻻ إن الله هو الغفور الرحيم
Lo! Verily, Allah is the Oft-Forgiving, the Most Merciful. This is a reminder, to take heed of this fact
