Surah Ghafir Tafseer
Tafseer of Ghafir : 78
Saheeh International
And We have already sent messengers before you. Among them are those [whose stories] We have related to you, and among them are those [whose stories] We have not related to you. And it was not for any messenger to bring a sign [or verse] except by permission of Allah . So when the command of Allah comes, it will be concluded in truth, and the falsifiers will thereupon lose [all].
Ibn Kathir
Tafseer 'Ibn Kathir' (EN)
وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا رُسُلً مِّن قَبْلِكَ مِنْهُم مَّن قَصَصْنَا عَلَيْكَ
And, indeed We have sent Messengers before you, of some of them We have related to you their story.
as Allah also says in Surah An-Nisa', meaning, `We have revealed the stories of some of them and how their people disbelieved in them, but the Messengers ultimately prevailed.'
وَمِنْهُم مَّن لَّمْ نَقْصُصْ عَلَيْكَ
And of some We have not related to you their story,
and they are many, many more than those whose stories have been told, as has been stated in Surah An-Nisa'.
Praise and blessings be to Allah.
وَمَا كَانَ لِرَسُولٍ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ بِأيَةٍ إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ
and it was not given to any Messenger that he should bring a sign except by the leave of Allah.
means, none of the Prophets was able to bring miracles to his people except when Allah granted him permission to do that as a sign of the truth of the message he brought to them.
فَإِذَا جَاء أَمْرُ اللَّهِ
But, when comes the commandment of Allah,
means, His punishment and vengeance which will encompass the disbelievers,
قُضِيَ بِالْحَقِّ
the matter will be decided with truth,
so the believers will be saved and the disbelievers will be destroyed.
Allah says:
وَخَسِرَ هُنَالِكَ الْمُبْطِلُونَ
and the followers of falsehood will then be lost.
