Tafsir

How can You feel Secure against the Punishment of Allah while He is Able to seize You however He wills

This is another indication of His gentleness and His mercy with His creatures. He is able to punish them because some of them disbelieve in Him and worship others besides Him, yet He is forbearing, He pardons, and He gives respite for an appointed time without hastening. This is as He says,

وَلَوۡ يُوَاخِذُ اللَّهُ النَّاسَ بِمَا كَسَبُواۡ مَا تَرَكَ عَلَى ظَهۡرِهَا مِن دَابَّةٍ وَلَـكِن يُوَخِّرُهُمۡ إِلَى أَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى فَإِذَا جَأءَ أَجَلُهُمۡ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ بِعِبَادِهِ بَصِيراً

And if Allah were to punish men for that which they earned, He would not leave a moving creature on the surface of the earth; but He gives them respite to an appointed term:and when their term comes, then verily, Allah is Ever All-Seer of His servants. (35:45)

Here Allah says,

أَأَمِنتُم مَّن فِي السَّمَاء أَن يَخۡسِفَ بِكُمُ الَارۡضَ فَإِذَا هِيَ تَمُورُ

Do you feel secure that He, Who is over the heaven, will not cause the earth to sink with you, and then it should quake?

meaning, that it would move back and forth, and be disrupted

أَمۡ أَمِنتُم مَّن فِي السَّمَاء أَن يُرۡسِلَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ حَاصِبًا

Or do you feel secure that He, Who is over the heaven, will not send against you a Hasib?

meaning, a wind containing gravel that will strike you, as Allah says in another Ayah,

أَفَأَمِنتُمۡ أَن يَخۡسِفَ بِكُمۡ جَانِبَ الۡبَرِّ أَوۡ يُرۡسِلَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ حَاصِبًا ثُمَّ لَا تَجِدُواۡ لَكُمۡ وَكِيلً

Do you then feel secure that He will not cause a side of the land to swallow you up, or that He will not send against you a violent sandstorm Then, you shall find no trustee. (17:68)

And similarly, here Allah threatens them with His statement,

فَسَتَعۡلَمُونَ كَيۡفَ نَذِيرِ

Then you shall know how has been My warning.

meaning, `how is My admonition and what will happen to those who disregard and reject it.'

Then Allah says

وَلَقَدۡ كَذَّبَ الَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِهِمۡ

And indeed those before them rejected,

meaning, from the previous nations and the old generations that have passed.

Then Allah says,

فَكَيۡفَ كَانَ نَكِيرِ

then how terrible was My reproach?

meaning, `how was My rebuke of them and my punishment of them.'

Meaning, it was great, severe and painful.

The flight of Birds is by the Power of Allah and it is a Proof that He sees everything small and large

Allah says

أَوَلَمۡ يَرَوۡا إِلَى الطَّيۡرِ فَوۡقَهُمۡ صَافَّاتٍ وَيَقۡبِضۡنَ

Do they not see the birds above them, spreading out their wings and folding them in?

meaning, sometimes they spread their wings out in the wind (gliding) and other times they gather and spread (flapping) the wings in flight.

مَا يُمۡسِكُهُنَّ

None upholds them,

meaning, in the air,

إِلاَّ الرَّحۡمَنُ

except the Most Gracious.

meaning, Allah holds them up in the air by subjecting the air to them out of His mercy and His gentleness.

إِنَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيۡءٍ بَصِيرٌ

Verily, He is the All-Seer of everything.

means, with what is beneficial and suitable for all of His creatures.

This is similar to His statement,

أَلَمۡ يَرَوۡاۡ إِلَى الطَّيۡرِ مُسَخَّرَتٍ فِى جَوِّ السَّمَأءِ مَا يُمۡسِكُهُنَّ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ إِنَّ فِى ذلِكَ لايَـتٍ لِّقَوۡمٍ يُوۡمِنُونَ

Do they not see the birds held in the midst of the sky None upholds them but Allah. Verily, in this are clear Ayat for people who believe. (24:79)
