Tafseer Ibn Kathir

فَلِلَّهِ الْحَمْدُ رَبِّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَرَبِّ الاَْرْضِ

So all praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the heavens and the Lord of the earth,

He is their Owner and the Owner of all that is in and on them, and surely,

رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ



and the Lord of all that exists.

Allah said next,

وَلَهُ الْكِبْرِيَاء فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالاَْرْضِ

And His is the majesty in the heavens and the earth,

meaning, the kingship, according to Mujahid.

This Ayah means, Allah is the Almighty, Worthy of all praise; everything and everyone is subservient and in complete need of and dependent upon Him.

In an authentic Hadith, the Prophet said,

يَقُولُ اللهُ تَعَالَى الْعَظَمَةُ إِزَارِي وَالْكِبْرِيَاءُ رِدَايِي فَمَنْ نَازَعَنِي وَاحِدًا مِنْهُمَا أَسْكَنْتُهُ نَارِي

Allah the Exalted said,

"Glory is My robe and pride is My garment; whoever rivals Me for either of them, I will make him reside in My Fire!"

Muslim collected a similar Hadith.

Allah said,

وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ

and He is the Al-`Aziz, (Who is never resisted or rivaled),

الْحَكِيمُ


Al-Hakim

(all wise in His statements, actions, legislation and the decree that He appoints);

all glory and praise are due to Him, none has the right to be worshipped but He, Alone.

This is the end of the Tafsir of Surah Al-Jathiyah. All praise and thanks are due to Allah alone
