Tafseer

'Abdullāh Ibn 'Abbās / Muḥammad al-Fīrūzabādī

تفسير : (therefore remember me) through the performance of acts of obedience, (i will remember you) by granting you paradise; and it is also said that this means: remember me in time of ease, i will remember you in times of hardship. (give thanks to me) for the blessings i bestowed upon you, (and reject not me) do not stop giving thanks for these blessings.

Jalāl al-Dīn al-Maḥallī

تفسير : so remember me, through prayer, glorification and the like, i will remember you: this is said to mean, ‘i will reward you’; in a hadīth about god [that he says]: ‘whoever remembers me in himself, i will remember him in myself, and whoever remembers me in an assembly, i will remember him in an assembly more excellent than his’; and be thankful to me, for my grace, by being obedient, and be not ungrateful towards me, through disobedience.
