Tafseer
'Abdullāh Ibn 'Abbās / Muḥammad al-Fīrūzabādī
تفسير : (and lo! verily) in the coming of jesus the son of mary (there is knowledge of the hour) there is an indication of the coming of the hour; it is also said that this means: his coming is a sign of the advent of the hour. (so doubt ye not concerning it) so have no doubt in the coming of the hour, (but follow me) by professing allah's divine oneness. (this) profession of divine oneness (is the right path) an established religion with which allah is pleased: i.e. the religion of islam.
Jalāl al-Dīn al-Maḥallī
تفسير : and indeed he, that is, jesus, is a portent of the hour — [the arrival of] it is known by the sending down of him — so do not doubt it (tamtarunna: the indicative nūn has been omitted for apocopation together with the wāw of the [third] person [plural] on account of two unvowelled consonants coming together) but, say to them: ‘follow me, in the affirmation of [god’s] oneness. this, to which i command you, is a straight path’.
