Surah Al Baqarah
{ ذَلِكَ ٱلْكِتَابُ لاَ رَيْبَ فِيهِ هُدًى لِّلْمُتَّقِينَ }
Transliteration
Thalika alkitabu larayba feehi hudan lilmuttaqeen
translation:
Yusuf Ali - This is the Book; in it is guidance sure, without doubt, to those who fear Allah. (2)
Dr. Mohsin - This is the Book (the Qur'ân), whereof there is no doubt, a guidance to those who are Al-Muttaqûn [the pious and righteous persons who fear Allâh much (abstain from all kinds of sins and evil deeds which He has forbidden) and love Allâh much (perform all kinds of good deeds which He has ordained)]. (2)
Tafsir:
Al Jalalayn - That, meaning, this, Book, which Muhammad (s) recites, in it there is no doubt, no uncertainty, that it is from God (the negation [lĀ rayba fĪhi] is the predicate of dhĀlika; the use of the demonstrative here is intended to glorify [the Book]). A guidance (hudĀ is a second predicate, meaning that it [the Book] ‘guides’), for the God-fearing, namely, those that tend towards piety by adhering to commands and avoiding things prohibited, thereby guarding themselves from the Fire;
Ibn Kathir - There is no Doubt in the Qur'an
Allah says;
ذَلِكَ الْكِتَابُ لاَ رَيْبَ فِيهِ ...
This is the Book, wherein there is no doubt,
The Book, is the Qur'an, and Rayb means doubt.
As-Suddi said that Abu Malik and Abu Salih narrated from Ibn Abbas, and Murrah Al-Hamadani narrated from Ibn Mas`ud and several other Companions of the Messenger of Allah that, لاَ رَيْبَ فِيهِ (In which there is no Rayb),
means about which there is no doubt.
Abu Ad-Darda, Ibn Abbas, Mujahid, Sa`id bin Jubayr, Abu Malik, Nafi Ata, Abu Al-Aliyah, Ar-Rabi bin Anas, Muqatil bin Hayyan, As-Suddi, Qatadah and Isma`il bin Abi Khalid said similarly.
In addition, Ibn Abi Hatim said,
"I do not know of any disagreement over this explanation.''
The meaning of this is that;
the Book, the Qur'an, is without a doubt revealed from Allah.
Similarly, Allah said in Surah As- Sajdah,
Some scholars stated that this Ayah - 2:2 - contains a prohibition meaning,
"Do not doubt the Qur'an.''
Furthermore, some of the reciters of the Qur'an pause upon reading, لاَ رَيْبَ (there is no doubt) and they then continue; فِيهِ هُدًى لِّلْمُتَّقِينَ (in which there is guidance for the Muttaqin (the pious and righteous persons)).
However, it is better to pause at, لاَ رَيْبَ فِيهِ (in which there is no doubt) because in this case, هُدًى (guidance) becomes an attribute of the Qur'an and carries a better meaning than, فِيهِ هُدًى (in which there is guidance).
