Translation — Tafsir

Word Meanings:

  • Tubdū (تُبْدُوا): To reveal, disclose, or make something apparent—whether by speech or action.
  • Tukhfūhu (تُخْفُوهُ): To conceal it, hide it within oneself, or keep it secret in the heart.
  • ʿAlīm (عَلِيم): All-Knowing, the One whose knowledge encompasses everything—the seen, the unseen, the spoken, and the unspoken.

Tafsir (Explanation):

O people, whether you openly say something—such as words that could hurt the Prophet (peace be upon him) or violate what Allah has commanded—or you keep it hidden deep within your hearts, Allah knows it all. Nothing escapes His knowledge: not a single word that passes your lips, not a thought that crosses your mind, not even the faintest intention that lingers in your soul. This verse comes as a profound reminder that Allah’s knowledge is absolute and all-encompassing. He is fully aware of every deed you perform, whether done in public or in private, and He is equally aware of what you conceal within yourselves—your motives, your desires, and your hidden inclinations. And because His knowledge is perfect, His justice is perfect too: He will reward you for every good you do, whether apparent or hidden, and He will hold you to account for every evil, whether you revealed it or kept it secret. This is not a threat to instill fear alone, but a call to consciousness—a reminder that you are always in the presence of the All-Knowing, and that your relationship with Him is built on sincerity, for He sees what no one else can see and knows what no one else can know.

Da‘wah Reflection:

How beautiful is this verse in drawing a believer closer to Allah! It tells you that you are never alone, never unnoticed, and never forgotten. The One who created you knows your struggles, your silent prayers, and even the thoughts you are too shy to utter. So let this knowledge fill your heart with hope: when you do good in secret, Allah sees it and will never let it go to waste. And when you slip into error, even if no one knows, Allah knows—and His door of repentance is always open. Let this awareness transform you: speak only what is good, think only what is pure, and act only what is righteous, for you are always in the sight of the All-Knowing, who loves those who are sincere and rewards them beyond what they can imagine.

📜 Verse 52-56 — Al-Ahzab

52لَّا يَحِلُّ لَكَ النِّسَاءُ مِن بَعْدُ وَلَا أَن تَبَدَّلَ بِهِنَّ مِنْ أَزْوَاجٍ وَلَوْ أَعْجَبَكَ حُسْنُهُنَّ إِلَّا مَا مَلَكَتْ يَمِينُكَ ۗ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ رَّقِيبًا
Not lawful to you, [O Muhammad], are [any additional] women after [this], nor [is it] for you to exchange them for [other] wives, even if their beauty were to please you, except what your right hand possesses. And ever is Allah, over all things, an Observer.
53يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَدْخُلُوا بُيُوتَ النَّبِيِّ إِلَّا أَن يُؤْذَنَ لَكُمْ إِلَىٰ طَعَامٍ غَيْرَ نَاظِرِينَ إِنَاهُ وَلَٰكِنْ إِذَا دُعِيتُمْ فَادْخُلُوا فَإِذَا طَعِمْتُمْ فَانتَشِرُوا وَلَا مُسْتَأْنِسِينَ لِحَدِيثٍ ۚ إِنَّ ذَٰلِكُمْ كَانَ يُؤْذِي النَّبِيَّ فَيَسْتَحْيِي مِنكُمْ ۖ وَاللَّهُ لَا يَسْتَحْيِي مِنَ الْحَقِّ ۚ وَإِذَا سَأَلْتُمُوهُنَّ مَتَاعًا فَاسْأَلُوهُنَّ مِن وَرَاءِ حِجَابٍ ۚ ذَٰلِكُمْ أَطْهَرُ لِقُلُوبِكُمْ وَقُلُوبِهِنَّ ۚ وَمَا كَانَ لَكُمْ أَن تُؤْذُوا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَلَا أَن تَنكِحُوا أَزْوَاجَهُ مِن بَعْدِهِ أَبَدًا ۚ إِنَّ ذَٰلِكُمْ كَانَ عِندَ اللَّهِ عَظِيمًا
O you who have believed, do not enter the houses of the Prophet except when you are permitted for a meal, without awaiting its readiness. But when you are invited, then enter; and when you have eaten, disperse without seeking to remain for conversation. Indeed, that [behavior] was troubling the Prophet, and he is shy of [dismissing] you. But Allah is not shy of the truth. And when you ask [his wives] for something, ask them from behind a partition. That is purer for your hearts and their hearts. And it is not [conceivable or lawful] for you to harm the Messenger of Allah or to marry his wives after him, ever. Indeed, that would be in the sight of Allah an enormity.
54إِن تُبْدُوا شَيْئًا أَوْ تُخْفُوهُ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمًا
Whether you reveal a thing or conceal it, indeed Allah is ever, of all things, Knowing.
55لَّا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْهِنَّ فِي آبَائِهِنَّ وَلَا أَبْنَائِهِنَّ وَلَا إِخْوَانِهِنَّ وَلَا أَبْنَاءِ إِخْوَانِهِنَّ وَلَا أَبْنَاءِ أَخَوَاتِهِنَّ وَلَا نِسَائِهِنَّ وَلَا مَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَانُهُنَّ ۗ وَاتَّقِينَ اللَّهَ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ شَهِيدًا
There is no blame upon women concerning their fathers or their sons or their brothers or their brothers' sons or their sisters' sons or their women or those their right hands possess. And fear Allah. Indeed Allah is ever, over all things, Witness.
56إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَمَلَائِكَتَهُ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ۚ يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا صَلُّوا عَلَيْهِ وَسَلِّمُوا تَسْلِيمًا
Indeed, Allah confers blessing upon the Prophet, and His angels [ask Him to do so]. O you who have believed, ask [Allah to confer] blessing upon him and ask [Allah to grant him] peace.
