Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: “And the date palms, with their tall trunks, having their clusters arranged in layers”

Machine translationRead the Arabic original

The Shaykh : We previously discussed up to the saying of Allah the Exalted:

⁽¹⁰⁾ And lofty palm trees having fruit arranged in layers - ⁽¹¹⁾ As provision for the servants, and We have given life thereby to a dead land. Thus is the resurrection.

َوالنَّخْلَ بَاسِقَاتٍ لَهَا طَلْعٌ نَضِيدٌ رزقا للعباد

[Qaf 50:10-11]

, as my brothers informed me, so we have reached this part of the surah. This verse,

And lofty palm trees having fruit arranged in layers -

وَالنَّخْلَ بَاسِقَاتٍ لَهَا طَلْعٌ نَضِيدٌ

[Qaf 50:10]

, is connected to the saying of Allah the Exalted:

and made grow thereby gardens and grain from the harvest

فأنبتنا به جنات وحب الحصيد

[Qaf 50:9]

, meaning: “And We caused date palms to grow from it, with tall trunks,” that is, tall ones.

having fruit arranged in layers -

لها طلع نضيد

[Qaf 50:10]

means arranged in layers, such that they are stacked, some next to some, in the most beautiful and most perfect form, attached to this date cluster until the time for eating it arrives. When the time for eating it arrives, it is very easy for a person to take it without this fresh date or this dried date being affected.
