Surah Al Ghashiyah Tafseer

And at the heaven, how it is raised.

Shurayh Al-Qadi used to say,

"Come out with us so that we may look at the camels and how they were created, and at the sky and how it has been raised."

Meaning, how Allah raised it in such magnificence above the ground.

This is as Allah says,

أَفَلَمْ يَنظُرُواْ إِلَى السَّمَأءِ فَوْقَهُمْ كَيْفَ بَنَيْنَـهَا وَزَيَّنَّـهَا وَمَا لَهَا مِن فُرُوجٍ

Have they not looked at the heaven above them, how we have made it and adorned it and there are no rifts on it? (50:6)

Then Allah says,

وَإِلَى الْجِبَالِ كَيْفَ نُصِبَتْ
