Quran 15 Verse 58 Explanation
For those looking for commentary to help with the understanding of Surah Al-Hijr ayat 58, we’ve provided two Tafseer works below. The first is the tafseer of Abul Ala Maududi, the second is of Ibn Kathir.
Ala-Maududi
(15:58) They said: “Verily we have been sent to a guilty people[34]
34. The fact that the angels did not name the people of Lot (peace be upon him) but merely referred to them as the wicked people, shows that these people had become so notorious for their wicked deeds that there was no need to mention them by name before Prophet Abraham (peace be upon him), who was well acquainted with the moral condition of all the people around him.
Ibn-Kathir
The tafsir of Surah Hijr verse 58 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
