Quran 55:33 Tafsir Al-Jalalayn


O company of jinn and humans if you are able to pass through to exit from the confines the regions of the heavens and the earth then pass through! — a command meant to challenge them to what they are incapable of doing. You will not pass through except with a sanction except with some power and you have no power for such a thing.


Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim


You people of the Jinn and mankind: if you are able to penetrate the heavens and the earth from end to end, you just do that; you shall not be able to accomplish this end without Allahs ordinance and authority

Quran 55:33 Tafsir Ibn Kathir


A Warning for Humans and Jinn Ibn Jurayj said that the Ayah, سَنَفْرُغُ لَكُمْ ( We shall attend to you, ) means, `We shall judge you,' while Al-Bukhari said that it means, "We shall recompense you.
Surely, nothing will busy Allah from attending to anything else." This type of speech pattern is common in the Arabic language.
For example, one would say, "I will attend to you," even when one is not busy with anything else.
Allah's saying; أَيُّهَا الثَّقَلاَنِ ( O you Thaqalan! ) refers to the humans and the Jinns, as in the Hadith;
«يَسْمَعُهَا كُلُّ شَيْءٍ إِلَّا الثَّقَلَيْن»
( Everyone will be able to hear it, except the Thaqalayn. ) In another narration that explains it, the Prophet said,
«إِلَّا الْإِنْسَ وَالْجِن»
( ...except mankind and the Jinns. ) Allah said, فَبِأَىِّ ءَالاءِ رَبِّكُمَا تُكَذِّبَانِ ( Then which of the blessings of your Lord will you both deny ), then, يمَعْشَرَ الْجِنِّ وَالإِنسِ إِنِ اسْتَطَعْتُمْ أَن تَنفُذُواْ مِنْ أَقْطَـرِ السَّمَـوَتِ وَالاٌّرْضِ فَانفُذُواْ لاَ تَنفُذُونَ إِلاَّ بِسُلْطَـنٍ ( O assembly of Jinn and men! If you are able to pass beyond the zones of the heavens and the earth, then pass beyond (them )! But you will never be able to pass them, except with authority ( from Allah )!) meaning, `you will never be able to escape Allah's orders and decrees, because it encompasses you.
You will never be able to avoid or avert His rule and judgement over you, you are surrounded by it wherever you may be.' This is also about the Gathering when the angels, comprising seven lines in every direction, will surround the creatures.
None of the creatures will be able to escape on that Day, إِلاَّ بِسُلْطَـنٍ ( except with authority ) meaning, except with the commandment from Allah, يَقُولُ الإِنسَـنُ يَوْمَئِذٍ أَيْنَ الْمَفَرُّ - كَلاَّ لاَ وَزَرَ - إِلَى رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ الْمُسْتَقَرُّ ( On that Day man will say: "Where (is the refuge ) to flee" No! There is no refuge! Unto your Lord will be the place of rest that Day.)( 75:10-12 ), وَالَّذِينَ كَسَبُواْ السَّيِّئَاتِ جَزَآءُ سَيِّئَةٍ بِمِثْلِهَا وَتَرْهَقُهُمْ ذِلَّةٌ مَّا لَهُمْ مِّنَ اللَّهِ مِنْ عَاصِمٍ كَأَنَّمَا أُغْشِيَتْ وُجُوهُهُمْ قِطَعًا مِّنَ الَّيْلِ مُظْلِماً أُوْلَـئِكَ أَصْحَـبُ النَّارِ هُمْ فِيهَا خَـلِدُونَ ( And those who earned evil deeds, the recompense of an evil deed is the like thereof, and humiliating disgrace will cover them.
No defender will they have from Allah.
Their faces will be covered as it were with pieces from the darkness of night.
They are the dwellers of Fire, they will abide therein forever. )
( 10:27 ) Allah's statement, يُرْسَلُ عَلَيْكُمَا شُوَاظٌ مِّن نَّارٍ وَنُحَاسٌ فَلاَ تَنتَصِرَانِ ( There will be sent against you both, Shuwaz of fire and Nuhas, and you will not be able to defend yourselves. ) `Ali bin Abi Talhah reported from Ibn `Abbas that Shuwaz is the flame of fire.
Abu Salih said, "It is the flame above the fire below the smoke." Ad-Dahhak said, شُوَاظٌ مِّن نَّارٍ ( Shuwaz of fire ) "A flood of fire." Allah said; وَنُحَاسٌ ( and Nuhas ) `Ali bin Abi Talhah reported from Ibn `Abbas; "The smoke of the fire." Similar was reported from Abu Salih, Sa`id bin Jubayr and Abu Sinan.
Ibn Jarir said that the Arabs used to call the smoke of the fire, Nuhas and Nihas.
But he said that the scholars of Qur'anic recitation said that in this Ayah, the word recited is Nuhas.
Mujahid said, "Molten brass poured over their heads." Qatadah held the same view.
Ad-Dahhak said,"Nuhas is liquid copper." The Ayah means, `if you, mankind and the Jinns, try to escape on the Day of Resurrection, then the angels, including those among them who guard Hellfire, will bring you back by directing smoke of fire and molten brass on you.' Allah's statement, فَلاَ تَنتَصِرَانِفَبِأَىِّ ءَالاءِ رَبِّكُمَا تُكَذِّبَانِ ( and you will not be able to defend yourselves.
Then which of the blessings of your Lord will you both deny )
فَإِذَا انشَقَّتِ السَّمَآءُ فَكَانَتْ وَرْدَةً كَالدِّهَانِ فَبِأَىِّ ءَالاءِ رَبِّكُمَا تُكَذِّبَانِ

Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

(55:33) O company of jinn and men, if you have the power to go beyond the bounds of the heavens and the earth, go beyond them! Yet you will be unable to go beyond them for that requires infinite power. *32

O company of jinn and mankind, if meaning

*32) 'The earth and the heavens" : the Universe or the Kingdom of God.
The verse means to impress this: `It is not in your power to escape Allah's grasp.
When the time for the accountability of which you are being foretold comes, you will be seized and brought before God in any case wherever you may be.
To go out of God's reach you will have to flee from the Universe of God for which you do trot have the required power.
If you feel that you have the power, then you may use that power if you so will.
"

Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs


O company of jinn and men, if ye have power) if you are able ( to penetrate (all )) to break free from ( regions ) the extremities ( of the heavens and the earth ) and from the rows of angels; ( then penetrate (them )) then break free and flee! ( You will never penetrate them ) you will not be able to break free ( save with (Our ) sanction) save with a reason and proof.


Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali

O assembly of jinns and men! If you have power to pass beyond the zones of the heavens and the earth, then pass (them)! But you will never be able to pass them, except with authority (from Allah)!
