* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn

{ قُلْ أَتُعَلِّمُونَ ٱللَّهَ بِدِينِكُمْ وَٱللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ مَا فِي ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي ٱلأَرْضِ وَٱللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمٌ }

Say to them ‘Do you pretend to inform God about your religion read the doubled 2nd verbal form a-tu‘allimūna ‘do you inform’ in other words are you intimating to Him your religious status when you say ‘We believe’ when God knows all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth and even though God is Knower of all things?’
