Surah Hud Tafseer

يَا قَوْمِ لا أَسْأَلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ أَجْرًا إِنْ أَجْرِيَ إِلاَّ عَلَى الَّذِي فَطَرَنِي

"O my people I ask of you no reward for it (the Message). My reward is only from Him Who created me. Will you not then understand!"

He informed them that he did not want any reward from them for his sincere advising and conveying of Allah's Message. He only sought his reward from Allah, the One Who created him.

أَفَلَ تَعْقِلُونَ

Will you not then understand!

Someone has come calling you to what will benefit your situation in this life and the Hereafter without asking for any wage (from them).

وَيَا قَوْمِ اسْتَغْفِرُواْ رَبَّكُمْ ثُمَّ تُوبُواْ إِلَيْهِ يُرْسِلِ السَّمَاء عَلَيْكُم مِّدْرَارًا وَيَزِدْكُمْ قُوَّةً

إِلَى قُوَّتِكُمْ وَلَا تَتَوَلَّوْاْ مُجْرِمِينَ
