Surah Maryam Tafseer
Tafseer of Maryam : 40
Saheeh International
Indeed, it is We who will inherit the earth and whoever is on it, and to Us they will be returned.
Ibn Kathir
Tafseer 'Ibn Kathir' (EN)
Verily, We will inherit the earth and whatsoever is thereon. And to Us they all shall be returned.
Allah is informing that He is the Creator, the Owner and the Controller of all matters. All of the creation will be destroyed and only He, the Most High and Most Holy, will remain. There is no one who can claim absolute ownership and control of affairs besides Him. He is the Inheritor of all His creation. He is the Eternal, Who will remain after they are gone and He is the Judge of their affairs. Therefore, no soul will be done any injustice, nor wronged even the weight of a mosquito or an atom.
Ibn Abi Hatim recorded that Hazm bin Abi Hazm Al-Quta`i said,
"Umar bin Abdul-Aziz wrote to Abdul-Hamid bin Abdur-Rahman, who was the governor of Kufah:
`Thus, to proceed:Verily, Allah prescribed death for His creatures when He created them and He determined their final destination. He said in that which He revealed in His truthful Book, which He guarded with His knowledge and made His angels testify to its preservation, that He will inherit the earth and all who are on it, and they will all be returned to Him."
