Tafsir Ibn Kathir

Verse range: 55:31

Open in Qurani

A Warning for Humans and Jinn Allay says,

سنفرغ لكم أيها الثقﻼن

We shall attend to you, O Thaqalan! Ibn Jurayj said that the Ayah,

سنفرغ لكم

(We shall attend to you), means, `We shall judge you,' while Al-Bukhari said that it means, "We shall recompense you. Surely, nothing will busy Allah from attending to anything else.'' This type of speech pattern is common in the Arabic language. For example, one would say, "I will attend to you,'' even when one is not busy with anything else. Allah's saying;

أيها الثقﻼن

(O you Thaqalan!), refers to the humans and the Jinns, as in the Hadith;

يسمعها كل شيء إﻻ الثقلين

Everyone will be able to hear it, except the Thaqalayn. In another narration that explains it, the Prophet said,

إﻻ اﻻنس والجن

except mankind and the Jinns. Allah said,

فبٲي آﻻء ربكما تكذبان
