Surah Yasin Tafseer

Allah tells:

قِيلَ

It was said:

Muhammad bin Ishaq reported from some of his companions from Ibn Mas`ud, may Allah be pleased with him, that they stamped on him until his intestines came out of his back passage.

Allah said to him:

ادْخُلِ الْجَنَّةَ

"Enter Paradise."

so he entered it with all its bountiful provision, when Allah had taken away from him all the sickness, grief and exhaustion of this world.

Mujahid said,

"It was said to Habib An-Najjar, `Enter Paradise.'

This was his right, for he had been killed. When he saw the reward,

قَالَ يَا لَيْتَ قَوْمِي يَعْلَمُونَ

He said:"Would that my people knew..."."

Qatadah said,

"You will never find a believer but he is sincere and is never insincere. When he saw with his own eyes how Allah had honored him, he said:

قَالَ يَا لَيْتَ قَوْمِي يَعْلَمُونَ

بِمَا غَفَرَ لِي رَبِّي وَجَعَلَنِي مِنَ الْمُكْرَمِينَ
