Surah Al Ahzab Tafseer
Tafseer of Al-Ahzab : 38
Saheeh International
There is not to be upon the Prophet any discomfort concerning that which Allah has imposed upon him. [This is] the established way of Allah with those [prophets] who have passed on before. And ever is the command of Allah a destiny decreed.
Ibn Kathir
Tafseer 'Ibn Kathir' (EN)
Allah says;
مَّا كَانَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ مِنْ حَرَجٍ فِيمَا فَرَضَ اللَّهُ لَهُ
There is no blame on the Prophet in that which Allah has made legal for him.
means, in that which has been permitted for him and which he has been commanded to do,
i.e. his marrying Zaynab, may Allah be pleased with her, who had been divorced by his adopted son Zayd bin Harithah,
سُنَّةَ اللَّهِ فِي الَّذِينَ خَلَوْا مِن قَبْلُ
That has been Allah's way with those who have passed away of old.
means this is the ruling of Allah for the Prophets who came before him. Allah would not command them to do anything for which they might be blamed.
This is a refutation of those hypocrites who imagined that there was anything wrong with his marrying the ex-wife of Zayd, his freed slave and adopted son.
وَكَانَ أَمْرُ اللَّهِ قَدَرًا مَّقْدُورًا
And the command of Allah is a decree determined.
means, His command which He has decreed must inevitably come to pass; nothing can prevent it or avert it, for whatever He wills happens, and whatever He does not decree, does not happen
