بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ






سُوۡرَةُ الاٴنعَام

وَإِن تُطِعۡ أَڪۡثَرَ مَن فِى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ يُضِلُّوكَ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ*!ۚ إِن يَتَّبِعُونَ إِلَّا ٱلظَّنَّ وَإِنۡ هُمۡ إِلَّا يَخۡرُصُونَ (١١٦) إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ أَعۡلَمُ مَن يَضِلُّ عَن سَبِيلِهِۦ*!ۖ وَهُوَ أَعۡلَمُ بِٱلۡمُهۡتَدِينَ (١١٧)






In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful





Al-Anaam

If thou obeyedst most of those on earth they would mislead thee far from Allah's way. They follow naught but an opinion, and they do but guess. (116) Lo! thy Lord, He knoweth best who erreth from His way; and He knoweth best (who are) the rightly guided. (117)
6:116-117





Tafsir Ibn Kathir




بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ





Most People are Misguided





Allah states that most of the people of the earth, are misguided. Allah said in other Ayat,


[وَلَقَدْ ضَلَّ قَبْلَهُمْ أَكْثَرُ الاٌّوَّلِينَ ]


(And indeed most of the men of old went astray before them.) [37:71] and,


[وَمَآ أَكْثَرُ النَّاسِ وَلَوْ حَرَصْتَ بِمُؤْمِنِينَ ]


(And most of mankind will not believe even if you eagerly desire it.)[12:103] They are misguided, yet they have doubts about their way, and they rely on wishful thinking and delusions.


[إِن يَتَّبِعُونَ إِلاَّ الظَّنَّ وَإِنْ هُمْ إِلاَّ يَخْرُصُونَ]


(They follow nothing but conjecture, and they do nothing but lie.) Thus, they fulfill Allah's decree and decision concerning them,


[هُوَ أَعْلَمُ مَن يَضِلُّ عَن سَبِيلِهِ]


(It is He Who knows best who strays from His way.) and facilitates that for him,


[وَهُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِالْمُهْتَدِينَ]


(And He knows best the rightly guided.) He facilitates that for them, all of them are facilitated for what He created them.


[فَكُلُواْ مِمَّا ذُكِرَ اسْمُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ إِن كُنتُم بِآيَـتِهِ مُؤْمِنِينَ ]
