Quran 36 Verse 80 Explanation
For those looking for commentary to help with the understanding of Surah Yaseen ayat 80, we’ve provided two Tafseer works below. The first is the tafseer of Abul Ala Maududi, the second is of Ibn Kathir.
Ala-Maududi
(36:80) He Who created from a green tree a fire for you, a fire to light your stoves with.”[68]
68. It either means that He has placed the inflammable matter in the green trees due to which people kindle fire from the pieces of wood. Or, it is an allusion to the markh and afar trees, whose green branches the Arabs struck against each other to produce the sparks. In ancient times the Bedouins used this method of kindling the fire and might even be using the same today.
