Translations

Pickthall — Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall

Say: Have ye thought: If (all) your water were to disappear into the earth, who then could bring you gushing water?

Yusuf Ali — Abdullah Yusuf Ali

Say: "See ye?- If your stream be some morning lost (in the underground earth), who then can supply you with clear-flowing water?"

Context · verses 28–30

In Him we trust — and who would bring you water?. Whether Allah destroys or shows mercy to the Prophet and his companions, no one can protect the disbelievers; the believers trust the Most Merciful; and if the water sank away, none but Allah could bring it back. Read the explanation.

تفسير ابن كثير — Tafsīr Ibn Kathīr (Arabic)

ثم قال : ( قل أرأيتم إن أصبح ماؤكم غورا ) أي : ذاهبا في الأرض إلى أسفل ، فلا ينال بالفئوس الحداد ، ولا السواعد الشداد ، والغائر : عكس النابع ; ولهذا قال : ( فمن يأتيكم بماء معين ) أي : نابع سائح جار على وجه الأرض ، لا يقدر على ذلك إلا الله ، عز وجل ، فمن فضله وكرمه أن أنبع لكم المياه وأجراها في سائر أقطار الأرض ، بحسب ما يحتاج العباد إليه من القلة والكثرة ، فلله الحمد والمنة .

[ آخر تفسير سورة " تبارك " ولله الحمد ] .
