Tafsir jalalayn

Our Lord, You shall gather mankind for a day, that is, on a day, of which there is no doubt, no uncertainty, that is, the Day of Resurrection, when You will requite them for their deeds as You had promised; verily God will not fail the tryst, His promise of the Upraising; there is a shift of address here from the second [to the third] person and these [last words] could constitute God's speech. The purpose of their supplication in this way is to show that their concern is with the matter of the Hereafter, and for this reason they ask [God] for adherence to the path of guidance, in order to attain its reward. The two Shaykhs [Bukhr and Muslim] reported that `'isha, may God be pleased with her, said, `The Messenger of God (s) recited this verse; It is He Who revealed to you the Book, wherein are verses clear [to the end of] the verse, and said, "When you see those pursuing the allegorical parts, [know that] these are the ones God refers to [in this verse], so beware of them" '. Al-Tabarn reported in his al-Kabr that Ab Ms al-Ash`ar heard the Prophet (s) say, `I fear nothing for my community except three faults', and he mentioned that one of these would be when the Book is opened in front of them, and the believer will desire to interpret it, and yet none knows its interpretation, save God; and those firmly rooted in knowledge say, `We believe in it, all is from our Lord; yet none remembers but people of pith' [Q. 3;7] [end of the] hadth.

Tafseer Ibn Kathir

He then recited,

رَبَّنَا لَا تُزِغْ قُلُوبَنَا بَعْدَ إِذْ هَدَيْتَنَا وَهَبْ لَنَا مِن لَّدُنكَ رَحْمَةً إِنَّكَ أَنتَ الْوَهَّابُ

"Our Lord! Let not our hearts deviate (from the truth) after You have guided us, and grant us mercy from You. Truly, You are the Bestower."

The Ayah continues,

رَبَّنَا إِنَّكَ جَامِعُ النَّاسِ لِيَوْمٍ لاَّ رَيْبَ فِيهِ

"Our Lord! Verily, it is You Who will gather mankind together on the Day about which there is no doubt"

meaning, they say in their supplication;O our Lord! You will gather Your creation on the Day of Return, judge between them and decide over what they disputed about. Thereafter, You will reward or punish each according to the deeds they did in this life.

إِنَّ اللّهَ لَا يُخْلِفُ الْمِيعَادَ



Verily, Allah never breaks His Promise.
