Tafseer

'Abdullāh Ibn 'Abbās / Muḥammad al-Fīrūzabādī

تفسير : (and (as for the believers) hath attuned their hearts) he united their hearts and word by means of islam. (if thou hadst spent all that is in the earth) of gold and silver (thou couldst not have attuned their hearts) or their word, (but allah hath attuned them) he united their hearts by means of faith. (lo! he is mighty) in his kingdom and sovereignty, (wise) in his command and decree.

Jalāl al-Dīn al-Maḥallī

تفسير : and reconciled, brought together, their hearts, after old feuds [had divided them]. had you expended all that is in the earth, you could not have reconciled their hearts, but god reconciled their hearts, through his power. truly he is mighty, his way prevailing, wise, nothing being beyond [the scope of] his wisdom.
