* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn

{ أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ سَخَّرَ لَكُم مَّا فِي ٱلأَرْضِ وَٱلْفُلْكَ تَجْرِي فِي ٱلْبَحْرِ بِأَمْرِهِ وَيُمْسِكُ ٱلسَّمَآءَ أَن تَقَعَ عَلَى ٱلأَرْضِ إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِهِ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ بِٱلنَّاسِ لَرَءُوفٌ رَّحِيمٌ }

Have you not seen realised that God has disposed for you all that is in the earth of beasts and that the ships run upon the sea for transport and to carry loads by His command by His leave and He holds back the heaven lest it should fall on the earth save when it may do so by His leave and you are destroyed. Surely God is with mankind Gentle Merciful in disposing things for them and holding others back from them.
