Waannaka la tathmao feeha wala tadha (surah TaHa: 119)

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

(20:119) nor suffer from thirst nor from sun. " *98

Wa annaka laa tazma`u feehaa wa laa tadhaa

*98) This is the explanation of the "distress" which they had to undergo inunediately after their expulsion from the Garden. Here instead of mentioning the high and perfect blessings of the Garden, only four basic necessities of life have been stated, namely, food, drink, dress, and shelter, as if to say, "In the Garden you are being supplied with all these necessities without any labour from you. But if you succumb to the temptations and seduction of Satan, you will be totally deprived not only of these facilities but also of the higher blessings of the Garden. In that case, you will have to work so hard for these necessities that very little energy and time and leisure will be left with you to strive for higher aims of life."
