Surah Abasa — Ayah 19 (English) — Video

Abasa • Ayah 19 of 42 • English


مِنْ نُطْفَةٍ خَلَقَهُ فَقَدَّرَهُ 19
Translation:
From a sperm-drop He created him and destined for him; Abasa 80:19
Tafsir:

خَلَقَهُ فَقَدَّرَ‌هُ (He created him, and designed him in due proportion..Abasa 80:19 ). In other words, He has made him with a special design and with great wisdom. His stature, body-structure, his face, his length and breadth of the limbs, his joints, his eyes, nose and ears are all well-proportioned in their creation. If any limb or organ loses its proportion, man's face will go awry, and every activity will become a problem.

The word qaddara is derived from taqdir which is also used in the sense of 'predestination'. Taking the word in this sense, the verse may also mean here that when man is under creation in his mother's womb, Allah predetermines four things for him: his life span, his sustenance, his deeds and whether he would be miserable or happy [ as in the hadith of Ibn Mas’ ud ؓ recorded by Shaikhain ].
