Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In the verse[Al-Qasas 28:88] what is the meaning of the verse?
Answer:
That Allah has decreed death for everything, everyone upon whom time passes,[Ar-Rahman 55:27] so this verse is from the end of Surat al-Qasas [Al-Qasas 28:88] like the verse in Surat al-Rahman, everything [Ar-Rahman 55:26-27], so what remains is Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), and He mentioned the Face; because the Face is the most noble of His attributes (Glorified and Exalted is He). Yes.
In the verse
Everything will be destroyed except His Face
كُلُّ شَيْءٍ هَالِكٌ إِلَّا وَجْهَهُAnswer:
That Allah has decreed death for everything, everyone upon whom time passes,
And there will remain the Face of your Lord, Owner of Majesty and Honor.
وَيَبْقَىٰ وَجْهُ رَبِّكَ ذُو الْجَلَالِ وَالْإِكْرَامِEverything will be destroyed except His Face
كُلُّ شَيْءٍ هَالِكٌ إِلَّا وَجْهَهُ(26) Everyone upon the earth will perish, (27) And there will remain the Face of your Lord, Owner of Majesty and Honor.
مَنْ عَلَيْهَا فَانٍ وَيَبْقَىٰ وَجْهُ رَبِّكَ ذُو الْجَلَالِ وَالْإِكْرَامِ
