Surah Mulk ayat 8 Tafsir Quran 67:8

﴿تَكَادُ تَمَيَّزُ مِنَ الْغَيْظِ ۖ كُلَّمَا أُلْقِيَ فِيهَا فَوْجٌ سَأَلَهُمْ خَزَنَتُهَا أَلَمْ يَأْتِكُمْ نَذِيرٌ﴾
[ الملك: 8]

67:8 It almost bursts with rage. Every time a company is thrown into it, its keepers ask them, "Did there not come to you a warner?"

almost exploding tamayyazu a variant reading has the original form tatamayyazu ripped apart with rage in wrath against the disbelievers. Whenever a host a group of them is flung into it its keepers ask them an interrogation of rebuke ‘Did there not come to you a warner?’ a messenger to warn you of God’s chastisement.

Almost boiling in resentment in the rage of distemper; as often as a fresh group is thrown within, its keepers ask them: did you not receive Messenger who was a spectacle and a warning to you all

The Description of Hell and Those Who will enter into it Allah the Exalted says, وَ ( and ) meaning, `and We have prepared,' لِلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْبِرَبِّهِمْ عَذَابُ جَهَنَّمَ وَبِئْسَ الْمَصِيرُ ( for those who disbelieve in their Lord is the torment of Hell, and worst indeed is that destination. ) This means that this will be the worst end and a terrible destiny. إِذَآ أُلْقُواْ فِيهَا سَمِعُواْ لَهَا شَهِيقًا ( When they are cast therein, they will hear its Shahiq ) Ibn Jarir said, "This means the sound of shouting." وَهِىَ تَفُورُ ( while it is simmering. ) Ath-Thawri said, "It will boil them just as a small number of seeds are boiled in a lot of water." Then Allah says, تَكَادُ تَمَيَّزُ مِنَ الغَيْظِ ( It almost bursts up with fury. ) meaning, some parts of it almost break apart from other parts due to the severity of its rage and anger with them. تَكَادُ تَمَيَّزُ مِنَ الغَيْظِ كُلَّمَا أُلْقِىَ فِيهَا فَوْجٌ سَأَلَهُمْ خَزَنَتُهَآ أَلَمْ يَأْتِكُمْ نَذِيرٌ - قَالُواْ بَلَى قَدْ جَآءَنَا نَذِيرٌ فَكَذَّبْنَا وَقُلْنَا مَا نَزَّلَ اللَّهُ مِن شَىْءٍ إِنْ أَنتُمْ إِلاَّ فِى ضَلَـلٍ كَبِيرٍ ( Every time a group is cast therein, its keepers will ask: "Did no warner come to you" They will say: "Yes, indeed a warner did come to us, but we rejected him and said: `Allah never sent down anything; you are only in great error."' ) In these Ayat Allah reminds of His justice in dealing with His creatures and that He does not punish anyone until the proof has been established against them and a Messenger has been sent to them.
This is similar to Allah's statement, وَمَا كُنَّا مُعَذِّبِينَ حَتَّى نَبْعَثَ رَسُولاً ( And We never punish until We have sent a Messenger. ) 17:15 Allah also says, حَتَّى إِذَا جَآءُوهَا فُتِحَتْ أَبْوَبُهَا وَقَالَ لَهُمْ خَزَنَتُهَآ أَلَمْ يَأْتِكُمْ رُسُلٌ مِّنكُمْ يَتْلُونَ عَلَيْكُمْ ءَايَـتِ رَبِّكُمْ وَيُنذِرُونَكُمْ لِقَـآءَ يَوْمِكُمْ هَـذَا قَالُواْ بَلَى وَلَـكِنْ حَقَّتْ كَلِمَةُ الْعَذَابِ عَلَى الْكَـفِرِينَ ( till when they reach it, the gates thereof will be opened.
And its keepers will say, "Did not the Messengers come to you from yourselves, reciting to you the Ayat of your Lord, and warning you of the meeting of this Day of yours" They will say: "Yes," but the Word of torment has been justified against the disbelievers!" ) 39:71 Thus, they have no recourse but to blame themselves and they will feel remorseful when such remorse will be of no benefit to them.
They will say, لَوْ كُنَّا نَسْمَعُ أَوْ نَعْقِلُ مَا كُنَّا فِى أَصْحَـبِ السَّعِيرِ ( Had we but listened or used our intelligence, we would not have been among the dwellers of the blazing Fire! ) meaning, `if we would have benefited from our intellects or listened to the truth that Allah revealed, we would not have been disbelieving in Allah and misguided about Him.
But we did not have understanding to comprehend what the Messengers came with, and we did not have the intelligence to guide us to following them.' Allah then says, فَاعْتَرَفُواْ بِذَنبِهِمْ فَسُحْقًا لاًّصْحَـبِ السَّعِيرِ ( Then they will confess their sin.
So, away with the dwellers of the blazing Fire! ) Imam Ahmad recorded from Abu Al-Bakhtari At-Ta'i that he heard from one of the Companions that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said,
«لَنْ يَهْلِكَ النَّاسُ حَتْى يُعْذِرُوا مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِم»
( The people will not be destroyed until they themselves confess their guilt. )

(67:8) as though it will burst with rage. Every time a multitude is cast into it, its keepers will ask them: 'Did no warner come to you?' *14

It almost bursts with rage. Every time meaning

*14) The real nature of this question will not be of a question that the keepers of Hell would like to ask them whether a warner from Allah had come to them or not, but the object would be to make them realize that no injustice had been done to them by casting them into Hell.
They would try to make them confess that Allah had not kept them uninformed and unwarned: He had sent the Prophets to them; He had informed them of the truth and of the Right Way; He had warned them that if they followed a way other than the Right Way, it would lead them to Hell, in which they had been cast.
But they had not listened to the Prophets.
Hence, they rightly deserved the punishment which was being meted out to them at that time.

This thing has been pointed out over and over again in the Qur'an that the test for which Allah has sent man in the world is not being conducted by keeping man absolutely unaware and uninformed of the requirements of the test only to see whether he found the right way by himself or not; but Allah has made the most appropriate arrangements that could possibly be trade of guiding him to the Right Way, and it is that He has raised the Prophets and sent down the Books.
Now the test of man lies in this whether he accepts the Prophets and the Books brought by them and adopts the straight way, or turns away from them to follow his own desires, whites and speculations.
Thus, the Prophethood, in fact, is Allah's argument which He has established against tnan and on its acceptance or rejection depends his whole future life.
No one, after the appointment of the Prophets, can present the excuse that he remained unaware of the Truth, or that he has been caught and put to the hard test unawares, or that he is being punished while he was innocent.
This theme has been presented in countless different ways in the Qur'an; for instance, see AI-Baqarah: 213, and E.N.
230 on it; An-Nisa': 41-42, 165 and E N.'s 64 and 208; Al-An`am: 130-131, and E.N.'s 98-100; Bani Isra'il: 15 and E.N.
17; Ta Ha: 134; Al-Qasas 47, 59, 65 and E.N.'s 66, 83; Fatir: 37; AlMu'min: 50 and E.N.

The Description of Hell and Those Who will enter into it Allah the Exalted says, وَ ( and ) meaning, `and We have prepared,' لِلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْبِرَبِّهِمْ عَذَابُ جَهَنَّمَ وَبِئْسَ الْمَصِيرُ ( for those who disbelieve in their Lord is the torment of Hell, and worst indeed is that destination. ) This means that this will be the worst end and a terrible destiny. إِذَآ أُلْقُواْ فِيهَا سَمِعُواْ لَهَا شَهِيقًا ( When they are cast therein, they will hear its Shahiq ) Ibn Jarir said, "This means the sound of shouting." وَهِىَ تَفُورُ ( while it is simmering. ) Ath-Thawri said, "It will boil them just as a small number of seeds are boiled in a lot of water."

As it would burst with rage) towards the disbelievers. ( Whenever a (fresh ) host) of disbelievers, i.e. the Jews, Christians, Magians and all other disbelievers ( flung therein ) in Gehenna ( the wardens thereof ) the wardens of Gehenna ( ask them: Came there unto you no warner ) a warning messenger?

It almost bursts up with fury. Every time a group is cast therein, its keeper will ask: "Did no warner come to you?"
