Quran 37:129 Tafsir Ibn Kathir
إِذْ قَالَ لِقَوْمِهِ أَلاَ تَتَّقُونَ
( When he said to his people: "Will you not have Taqwa" ) means, `do you not fear Allah when you worship others instead of Him'
أَتَدْعُونَ بَعْلاً وَتَذَرُونَ أَحْسَنَ الْخَـلِقِينَ
( Will you call upon Ba`l and forsake the Best of creators, ) Ibn `Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, Mujahid, `Ikrimah, Qatadah and As-Suddi said that the word Ba`l means lord.
`Ikrimah and Qatadah said, "This is the language of the people of Yemen." According to another report from Qatadah, it is the language of Azd Shanu'ah.
`Abdur-Rahman bin Zayd bin Aslam narrated from his father that it is the name of an idol which was worshipped by the people of a city called Ba`labak ( Baalbek ) which is to the west of Damascus.
Ad-Dahhak said, "It is an idol which they used to worship."
أَتَدْعُونَ بَعْلاً
( Will you call upon Ba`l ) means, `will you worship an idol,'
أَتَدْعُونَ بَعْلاً وَتَذَرُونَ أَحْسَنَ الْخَـلِقِينَ - اللَّهَ رَبَّكُمْ وَرَبَّ ءَابَآئِكُمُ الاٌّوَّلِينَ
( and forsake the Best of creators, Allah, your Lord and the Lord of your forefathers ) means, `He is the One Who is deserving of your worship alone, with no partners or associates.'
فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَإِنَّهُمْ لَمُحْضَرُونَ
( But they denied him, so they will certainly be brought forth, ) means, for the punishment on the Day of Reckoning.
إِلاَّ عِبَادَ اللَّهِ الْمُخْلَصِينَ
( Save the chosen servants of Allah. ) means, those who believe in Him alone.
وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى الاٌّخِرِينَ
( And We left for him among the later generations. ) means, he is praised and spoken of highly.
سَلَـمٌ عَلَى إِلْ يَاسِينَ
( Salam (peace! ) be upon Ilyasin!) Similarly, one might say for Isma`il, Isma`in.
This is the language ( dialect ) of Bani Asad; they say Mikal, Mika'il, and Mika'in.
They say Ibrahim and Ibraham; Isra'il, Isra'in; Tur Sina', Tur Sinin.
All of that is fine.
إِنَّا كَذَلِكَ نَجْزِى الْمُحْسِنِينَ - إِنَّهُ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
( Verily, thus do We reward the doers of good.
Verily, he was one of Our believing servants. ) We have already discussed the meaning of this above.
And Allah knows best.
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(37:129) We preserved a good name for him among posterity. *73
And We left for him [favorable mention] meaning
*73) The treatment that the Israelites meted out to the Prophet Elijah in his life has been referred to above, but after his death they became so enamoured of him that they held him in the highest esteem and reverence after the Prophet Moses.
They formed the belief that Elijah ( peace be upon him ) had been taken up alive into heaven by a whirlwind ( 2 Kings, ch.
2 ), and that he will come back to the world again.
Thus, in Malachi ( O.T. ) it is written: " Behold, I will send you Elijah the Prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord. " ( 4: 5 ).
At the tune the Prophets John and Jesus ( peace be upon them ) appeared, the Jews were awaiting the advent of these three men: the Prophet Elias, the Christ and " that Prophet " ( i.e.
the Holy Prophet Muhammad ).
When the ministry of the Prophet John began and he slatted baptizing the people, the Jews sent priests to him to ask, " Are you the Christ ? " And he said that he was not the Christ.
Then they asked, " Are you Elijah ? " And he answered that he was not Elias; then they asked, " Are you 'that Prophet'? " And he answered that he was not " that Prophet " either.
Thereupon they said, " If you arc neither the Christ, nor Elias, nor that Prophet, why do you then baptize ? " ( John, 1: 19-2G; j.
Afterwards when the name of the Prophet Jesus spread among the people, the Jews thought that perhaps the Prophet Elias had come.
(Mark, 6: 14-15 ).
Even among the disciples of Jesus themselves the idea was common that Elias the Prophet would come, but Jesus removed their misunderstanding, saying, 'Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatever they listed." Then the disciples understood that he spoke to them of John the Baptist and not of Elias who had appeared tight hundred years earlier.
( Matthew.
11: 14; and 17: 10-131. )

Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs
( And we left for him among the later folk (the salutation )) We left for Elias good praise among the people who came after him:
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
And We left for him (a goodly remembrance) among generations (to come) in later times;
We try our best to translate, keeping in mind the Italian saying: "Traduttore, traditore", which means: "Translation is a betrayal of the original text".
