Surah Anbiya ayat 75 Tafsir Quran 21:75

﴿وَأَدْخَلْنَاهُ فِي رَحْمَتِنَا ۖ إِنَّهُ مِنَ الصَّالِحِينَ﴾
[ الأنبياء: 75]

21:75 And We admitted him into Our mercy. Indeed, he was of the righteous.

And We admitted him into Our mercy by Our saving him from his people. He was indeed one of the righteous.

And We admitted him to the domain of Our mercy. He was one of those characterized by justice and uprightness and he was morally right

And We rescued him and Lut to the land which We have blessed for the nations ( 71 )And We bestowed upon him Ishaq, and Ya'qub Nafilatan.
Each one We made righteous ( 72 )And We made them leaders, guiding by Our command, and We revealed to them the doing of good deeds, performing Salah, and the giving of Zakah, and of Us ( Alone ) they were the worshippers ( 73 )And ( remember ) Lut, We gave him wisdom and knowledge, and We saved him from the town who practised Al-Khaba'ith.
Verily, they were a people given to evil, and were rebellious ( 74 )And We admitted him to Our mercy; truly, he was of the righteous ( 75 ) The Migration of Ibrahim to Ash-Sham ( Greater Syria ), accompanied by Lut Allah tells us that He saved Ibrahim from the fire lit by his people, and brought him out from among them, migrating to the land of Ash-Sham, to the sacred regions thereof. وَوَهَبْنَا لَهُ إِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ نَافِلَةً ( And We bestowed upon him Ishaq, and Ya'qub Nafilatan. ) 'Ata' and Mujahid said, "Nafilatan means as a gift." Ibn 'Abbas, Qatadah and Al-Hakam bin 'Uyaynah said, "The gift of a son who has a son," meaning that Ya'qub was the son of Ishaq, as Allah says: فَبَشَّرْنَاهَا بِإِسْحَاقَ وَمِن وَرَاءِ إِسْحَاقَ يَعْقُوبَ ( But We gave her glad tidings of Ishaq, and after Ishaq, of Ya'qub )[ 11:71 ].
'Abdur-Rahman bin Zayd bin Aslam said, "He asked for one [ son ], and said, رَبِّ هَبْ لِي مِنَ الصَّالِحِينَ ( "My Lord! Grant me from the righteous." )[ 37:100 ] So Allah gave him Ishaq, and gave him Ya'qub in addition. وَكُلًّا جَعَلْنَا صَالِحِينَ ( Each one We made righteous. ) means, both of them were good and righteous people. وَجَعَلْنَاهُمْ أَئِمَّةً ( And We made them leaders, ) means, examples to be followed. يَهْدُونَ بِأَمْرِنَا ( guiding by Our command, ) inviting to Him by His leave.
Allah says: وَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَيْهِمْ فِعْلَ الْخَيْرَاتِ وَإِقَامَ الصَّلَاةِ وَإِيتَاءَ الزَّكَاةِ ( and We revealed to them the doing of good deeds, performing Salah, and the giving of Zakah, ) Here the general is followed by the specific. وَكَانُوا لَنَا عَابِدِينَ ( and of Us (Alone ) they were the worshippers.) means, they did what they enjoined others to do. The Prophet Lut Then Allah mentions Lut, whose full name was Lut bin Haran bin Azar.
He believed in Ibrahim and followed him, and migrated with him, as Allah says: فَآمَنَ لَهُ لُوطٌ ۘ وَقَالَ إِنِّي مُهَاجِرٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّي ( So Lut believed in him.
He (Ibrahim ) said: "I will emigrate for the sake of my Lord")( 29:26 ). Allah gave him wisdom and knowledge; He sent Revelation to him, made him a Prophet and appointed him to Sadum ( Sodom ) and its vicinity, but they rejected him and resisted him, so Allah utterly destroyed them, as He tells us in several places in His Book.
Allah says; وَنَجَّيْنَاهُ مِنَ الْقَرْيَةِ الَّتِي كَانَت تَّعْمَلُ الْخَبَائِثَ ۗ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا قَوْمَ سَوْءٍ فَاسِقِينَ - وَأَدْخَلْنَاهُ فِي رَحْمَتِنَا ۖ إِنَّهُ مِنَ الصَّالِحِينَ ( and We saved him from the town who practised Al-Khaba'ith.
Verily, they were a people given to evil, and were rebellious.
And We admitted him to Our mercy; truly, he was of the righteous. )

And We rescued him and Lut to the land which We have blessed for the nations ( 71 )And We bestowed upon him Ishaq, and Ya'qub Nafilatan.

Verily, they were a people given to evil, and were rebellious.
And We admitted him to Our mercy; truly, he was of the righteous. )

( And We brought him in ) and We will enter him in the Hereafter ( unto Our mercy ) into Our Paradise; it is also said that this means: We honoured him in this worldly life with prophethood. ( Lo! he was of the righteous ) in his religion, and was one of the messengers.

And We admitted him to Our Mercy, truly, he was of the righteous.
