Quran 81 Verse 25 Explanation
For those looking for commentary to help with the understanding of Surah Takwir ayat 25, we’ve provided two Tafseer works below. The first is the tafseer of Abul Ala Maududi, the second is of Ibn Kathir.
Ala-Maududi
(81:25) nor is it a word of an accursed Satan.[21]
21. That is, you are wrong in thinking that some Satan comes and whispers these words into the ear of Muhammad (peace be upon him). It does not suit Satan that he should divert man from polytheism, idol worship, atheism and sin and turn him to God-worship and Tauhid, make man realize that he should live a life of responsibility and accountability to God instead of living an irresponsible, care-free life, should forbid man to adopt practices of ignorance, injustice, immorality and wickedness and lead him to a clean life of justice, piety and high morals. For further explanation, see (Surah Ash-Shuara, Ayat 210-212), and (Surah Ash-Shuara, Ayat 221-223).
