Surah Ar Rahman Tafseer
Tafseer of Ar-Rahman : 33
Saheeh International
O company of jinn and mankind, if you are able to pass beyond the regions of the heavens and the earth, then pass. You will not pass except by authority [from Allah ].
Ibn Kathir
Tafseer 'Ibn Kathir' (EN)
O assembly of Jinn and men! If you are able to pass beyond the zones of the heavens and the earth, then pass beyond (them)! But you will never be able to pass them, except with authority (from Allah)!
meaning, `you will never be able to escape Allah's orders and decrees, because it encompasses you. You will never be able to avoid or avert His rule and judgement over you, you are surrounded by it wherever you may be.'
This is also about the Gathering when the angels, comprising seven lines in every direction, will surround the creatures. None of the creatures will be able to escape on that Day,
إِلاَّ بِسُلْطَانٍ
(except with authority), meaning, except with the commandment from Allah,
يَقُولُ الاِنسَـنُ يَوْمَيِذٍ أَيْنَ الْمَفَرُّ
كَلَّ لَا وَزَرَ
إِلَى رَبِّكَ يَوْمَيِذٍ الْمُسْتَقَرُّ
On that Day man will say:"Where (is the refuge) to flee"
No! There is no refuge!
Unto your Lord will be the place of rest that Day. (75:10-12),
وَالَّذِينَ كَسَبُواْ السَّيِّيَاتِ جَزَاءُ سَيِّيَةٍ بِمِثْلِهَا وَتَرْهَقُهُمْ ذِلَّةٌ مَّا لَهُمْ مِّنَ اللَّهِ مِنْ عَاصِمٍ كَأَنَّمَا أُغْشِيَتْ وُجُوهُهُمْ قِطَعًا مِّنَ الَّيْلِ مُظْلِماً أُوْلَـيِكَ أَصْحَـبُ النَّارِ هُمْ فِيهَا خَـلِدُونَ
And those who earned evil deeds, the recompense of an evil deed is the like thereof, and humiliating disgrace will cover them. No defender will they have from Allah. Their faces will be covered as it were with pieces from the darkness of night. They are the dwellers of Fire, they will abide therein forever. (10:27)
فَبِأَيِّ الَاء رَبِّكُمَا تُكَذِّبَانِ
