Surah Luqman Tafseer
Tafseer of Luqman : 32
Saheeh International
And when waves come over them like canopies, they supplicate Allah, sincere to Him in religion. But when He delivers them to the land, there are [some] of them who are moderate [in faith]. And none rejects Our signs except everyone treacherous and ungrateful.
Ibn Kathir
Tafseer 'Ibn Kathir' (EN)
وَإِذَا غَشِيَهُم مَّوْجٌ كَالظُّلَلِ
And when waves cover them like shades,
meaning, like mountains or clouds,
دَعَوُا اللَّهَ مُخْلِصِينَ لَهُ الدِّينَ
they invoke Allah, making their invocations for Him only.
This is like the Ayah,
وَإِذَا مَسَّكُمُ الْضُّرُّ فِى الْبَحْرِ ضَلَّ مَن تَدْعُونَ إِلَا إِيَّاهُ
And when harm touches you upon the sea, those that you call upon vanish from you except Him. (17:67)
فَإِذَا رَكِبُواْ فِى الْفُلْكِ
And when they embark on a ship... (29:65)
Then Allah says:
فَلَمَّا نَجَّاهُمْ إِلَى الْبَرِّ فَمِنْهُم مُّقْتَصِدٌ
But when He brings them safe to land, there are among them those that stop in between.
Mujahid said,
"This refers to the disbelievers -- as if he interpreted the word Muqtasid to mean denier as in the Ayah,
فَلَمَّا نَجَّاهُمْ إِلَى الْبَرِّ إِذَا هُمْ يُشْرِكُونَ
but when He brings them safely to land, behold, they give a share of their worship to others. (29:65)
وَمَا يَجْحَدُ بِأيَاتِنَا إِلاَّ كُلُّ خَتَّارٍ كَفُورٍ
And Our Ayat are not denied except by every Khattar Kafur.
Khattar means one who betrays or stabs in the back.
This was the view of Mujahid, Al-Hasan, Qatadah and Malik, narrating from Zayd bin Aslam.
This word describes a person who, whenever he makes a promise, breaks his promise, and it refers to the worst form of treachery.
كَفُورٍ
(Kafur) means,
one who denies blessings and does not give thanks for them, rather he forgets them and does not remember them
