Commentary on 51:4
﴿فالمُقَسِّماتِ أمْرًا﴾، اَلْمَلائِكَةِ، لِأنَّها تُقَسِّمُ الأُمُورَ، مِنَ الأمْطارِ، والأرْزاقِ، وغَيْرِهِما، أوْ تَفْعَلُ التَقْسِيمَ مَأْمُورَةً بِذَلِكَ، أوْ تَتَوَلّى تَقْسِيمَ أمْرِ العِبادِ، فَجِبْرِيلُ لِلْغِلْظَةِ، ومِيكائِيلُ لِلرَّحْمَةِ، ومَلَكُ المَوْتِ لَقَبْضِ الأرْواحِ، وإسْرافِيلُ لِلنَّفْخِ، ويَجُوزُ أنْ يُرادَ الرِياحُ لا غَيْرُ، لِأنَّها تُنْشِئُ السَحابَ، وتُقِلُّهُ، وتَصْرِفُهُ، وتَجْرِي في الجَوِّ جَرْيًا سَهْلًا، وتُقَسِّمُ الأمْطارَ بِتَصْرِيفِ السَحابِ، ومَعْنى الفاءِ عَلى الأوَّلِ أنَّهُ أقْسَمَ بِالرِياحِ، فَبِالسَحابِ، الَّتِي تَسُوقُهُ، فَبِالفُلْكِ الَّتِي تُجْرِيها بِهُبُوبِها، فَبِالمَلائِكَةِ الَّتِي تُقَسِّمُ الأرْزاقَ بِإذْنِ اللهِ، مِنَ الأمْطارِ، وتِجاراتِ البَحْرِ، ومَنافِعِها، أوْ عَلى الثانِي أنَّها تَبْتَدِئُ في الهُبُوبِ، فَتَذْرُو التُرابَ والحَصْباءَ، فَتَقِلُّ السَحابَ، فَتَجْرِي في الجَوِّ باسِطَةً لَهُ، فَتُقَسِّمُ المَطَرَ.

50:36
وَكَمۡ أَهۡلَكۡنَا قَبۡلَهُم مِّن قَرۡنٍ هُمۡ أَشَدُّ مِنۡهُم بَطۡشٗا فَنَقَّبُواْ فِي ٱلۡبِلَٰدِ هَلۡ مِن مَّحِيصٍ ٣٦
And how many a generation before them did We destroy who were greater than them in [striking] power and had explored throughout the lands. Is there any place of escape?
50:37
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَذِكۡرَىٰ لِمَن كَانَ لَهُۥ قَلۡبٌ أَوۡ أَلۡقَى ٱلسَّمۡعَ وَهُوَ شَهِيدٞ ٣٧
Indeed in that is a reminder for whoever has a heart or who listens while he is present [in mind].
50:38
وَلَقَدۡ خَلَقۡنَا ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَا فِي سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٖ وَمَا مَسَّنَا مِن لُّغُوبٖ ٣٨
And We did certainly create the heavens and earth and what is between them in six days, and there touched Us no weariness.
50:39
فَٱصۡبِرۡ عَلَىٰ مَا يَقُولُونَ وَسَبِّحۡ بِحَمۡدِ رَبِّكَ قَبۡلَ طُلُوعِ ٱلشَّمۡسِ وَقَبۡلَ ٱلۡغُرُوبِ ٣٩
So be patient, [O Muḥammad], over what they say and exalt [Allāh] with praise of your Lord before the rising of the sun and before its setting,
50:40
وَمِنَ ٱلَّيۡلِ فَسَبِّحۡهُ وَأَدۡبَٰرَ ٱلسُّجُودِ ٤٠
And [in part] of the night exalt Him and after prostration [i.e., prayer].
50:41
وَٱسۡتَمِعۡ يَوۡمَ يُنَادِ ٱلۡمُنَادِ مِن مَّكَانٖ قَرِيبٖ ٤١
And listen on the Day when the Caller1 will call out from a place that is near -

50:42
يَوۡمَ يَسۡمَعُونَ ٱلصَّيۡحَةَ بِٱلۡحَقِّۚ ذَٰلِكَ يَوۡمُ ٱلۡخُرُوجِ ٤٢
The Day they will hear the blast [of the Horn] in truth. That is the Day of Emergence [from the graves].
50:43
إِنَّا نَحۡنُ نُحۡيِۦ وَنُمِيتُ وَإِلَيۡنَا ٱلۡمَصِيرُ ٤٣
Indeed, it is We who give life and cause death, and to Us is the destination
50:44
يَوۡمَ تَشَقَّقُ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ عَنۡهُمۡ سِرَاعٗاۚ ذَٰلِكَ حَشۡرٌ عَلَيۡنَا يَسِيرٞ ٤٤
On the Day the earth breaks away from them [and they emerge] rapidly; that is a gathering easy for Us.
50:45
نَّحۡنُ أَعۡلَمُ بِمَا يَقُولُونَۖ وَمَآ أَنتَ عَلَيۡهِم بِجَبَّارٖۖ فَذَكِّرۡ بِٱلۡقُرۡءَانِ مَن يَخَافُ وَعِيدِ ٤٥
We are most knowing of what they say, and you are not over them a tyrant.1 But remind by the Qur’ān whoever fears My threat.
1 translator’s note
- Forcing people to belief or submission. ↩
