Ayah 20
Surah Al-Baqara
The lightning almost snatches away their sight. Every time it lights [the way] for them, they walk therein; but when darkness comes over them, they stand [still]. And if Allah had willed, He could have taken away their hearing and their sight. Indeed, Allah is over all things competent.﴿20﴾
Translation
The lightning almost snatches away their sight. Every time it lights [the way] for them, they walk therein; but when darkness comes over them, they stand [still]. And if Allah had willed, He could have taken away their hearing and their sight. Indeed, Allah is over all things competent.
Simplified Tafsir
يقارب البرق -من شدة لمعانه- أن يسلب أبصارهم، ومع ذلك فكلَّما أضاء لهم مشَوْا في ضوئه، وإذا ذهب أظلم الطريق عليهم فيقفون في أماكنهم. ولولا إمهال الله لهم لسلب سمعهم وأبصارهم، وهو قادر على ذلك في كل وقتٍ، إنه على كل شيء قدير.
