Quran 22 Verse 27 Explanation
For those looking for commentary to help with the understanding of Surah Hajj ayat 27, we’ve provided two Tafseer works below. The first is the tafseer of Abul Ala Maududi, the second is of Ibn Kathir.
Ala-Maududi
(22:27) and publicly proclaim Pilgrimage for all mankind so that they come to you on foot and mounted on lean[46] camels[47] from every distant point
46. The expression lean camels has been deliberately used to depict the picture of the camels of pilgrims coming from far off places to perform Hajj.
47. In my opinion the address to Prophet Abraham (peace be upon him) comes to an end with (Surah Al-Hajj, ayat 27-29) have been added to emphasize and give further instructions for the performance of Hajj. We have based this opinion on the use of the epithet Ancient House of the Kabah. It could not have been used at the time when Prophet Abraham (peace be upon him) built it. For further details about the construction of the Kabah see (Surah Al-Baqarah, Ayat 125-129); (Surah Aal-Imran, Ayat 96-97); and (Surah Ibrahim, Ayat 35-41).
