19 Maryam(مريم), Ayah 78

أَطَّلَعَ الْغَيْبَ أَمِ اتَّخَذَ عِنْدَ الرَّحْمَٰنِ عَهْدًا 78 ٧٨

Has he looked into the unseen, or has he taken from the Most Merciful a promise? (78)

Tafsir

This verse is an answer to ` As Ibn Wa’ ils boastful claim. How does he know that when he is brought back to life he will still have his wealth and children?

أَطَّلَعَ الْغَيْبَ (Has he peeped in the unseen - Maryam 19:78 ) It is obvious that nothing of this kind has happened. Then why has he considered it as a surety?

أَمِ اتَّخَذَ عِندَ الرَّ‌حْمَـٰنِ عَهْدًا

“ Or taken a covenant with The Rahman (All-Mercifull)”

Or has he entered into a covenant with Allah Ta` ala and obtained a promise from Him for his wealth and his children?
