The Meaning of the Cursed Tree in the Qur'an
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Your Eminence, the father, the questioner asks: What is meant by the cursed tree in the Qur'an?
Answer:
The tree of zaqqum, the cursed tree in the Qur'an, is the tree of zaqqum. This is because Allah[As-Saffat 37:63-64] The polytheists mocked, saying: How can a tree grow in the Fire? They claimed Allah is incapable of growing a tree in the Fire. [Al-Hashr 59:6] Allah, the Exalted and Majestic, [Al-Hashr 59:6] grows trees in whatever He wills, (Glorified and Exalted is He). So the cursed tree is the tree of zaqqum because it became a trial for the wrongdoers, and they mocked the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and made fun of him. Yes.
