Quran 39 Verse 44 Explanation
For those looking for commentary to help with the understanding of Surah Zumar ayat 44, we’ve provided two Tafseer works below. The first is the tafseer of Abul Ala Maududi, the second is of Ibn Kathir.
Ala-Maududi
(39:44) Say: “All intercession lies with Allah.[63] His is the dominion of the heavens and the earth. And to Him will all of you be sent back.”
63. That is, not to speak of getting his intercession granted, no one has the power to stand before Allah as an intercessor. The right to grant or not to grant anyone the permission to intercede with Him exclusively rests with Allah. Then He may allow intercession for whomever He may please and forbid for whomever He may please. For understanding the difference between the Islamic concept of intercession and the polytheistic concept, see (Surah Al-Baqarah, Ayat 255); (Surah Al-Anaam, Ayat 51); (Surah Younus, Ayat 3), (Surah Younus, Ayat 18); (Surah Hud, Ayat 105); (Surah Ar-Raad, Ayat 11); (Surah An-Naml, Ayat 73), (Surah An-Naml, Ayat 84); (Surah TaHa, Ayat 109-110); (Surah Al-Anbiya, Ayat 23); (Surah Al-Hijr, Ayat 76), and the E.Ns thereof and (Surah Saba, ayat 33) note 40.
