Tafsir of verse 41
Al-Mukhtasar
So a severe scream, accompanied by a severe wind, took them by surprise, due to their deserving the punishment owing to their stubbornness. I destroyed them, leaving them like the froth of the flood. Woe be to the transgressing nation!
So the huge blast12 overtook them in all justice, and We swept them away like scum13. So away with the wrongdoing people!
Notes
[12] i.e., a piercing cry.
[13] Ghutha’ literally means the froth thrown out by flood waters on the banks.
So As-Saihah (torment - awful cry) overtook them in truth (with justice), and We made them as rubbish of dead plants. So away with the people who are Zâlimûn (polytheists, wrong-doers, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allâh, disobedient to His Messengers).
So the (Awful) Cry overtook them rightfully, and We made them like as wreckage (that a torrent hurleth). A far removal for wrongdoing folk!
Then the Blast overtook them with justice, and We made them as rubbish of dead leaves (floating on the stream of Time)! So away with the people who do wrong!
So the punishment overtook them in justice, and We made them as rubbish; so away with the unjust people.
So the Shout took them (away) with the truth, then We made them (as) stubble; so far away (are gone) the unjust people!
Destroying everything by command of its Lord. And they became so that nothing was seen [of them] except their dwellings. Thus do We recompense the criminal people.
