Tafseer
'Abdullāh Ibn 'Abbās / Muḥammad al-Fīrūzabādī
تفسير : (it may be) and “may be” when used in connection with allah denotes necessity (that our lord will give us) in the hereafter in exchange (better than this in place thereof) better than this garden. (lo! we beseech our lord) our desire is with allah.
Jalāl al-Dīn al-Maḥallī
تفسير : it may be that our lord will give us in its place (read yubaddilanā or yubdilanā) one that is better than it. truly we turn humbly to our lord’, that he might accept our repentance and give us back [a garden that is] better than our garden — it is reported that they were indeed given a better one in its place.
