“Read! And your Lord is
the Most Generous,”
[Surah al-‘Alaq 96:3]
Imaam al-Qoortubee [May Allaah have Mercy on him]
explained:
Al-Akraam means He is al-Kareem[1]
Some of the commentators of the Qur’aan said that
this Aayah means, Read, oh Muhammad! And Your Lord will Assist you and Give you
understanding, even though you are illiterate.
[Tafseer al-Qurtoobee (22/377)]
[1] Al-Kareem, al-Akram, Dhu Jalaal wal-Ikraam
means He is, the Glorified and Exalted, the Possessor of Glory and Generosity.
He is the Possessor of Power and Magnitude, Honour and Majesty. The One Who has
Magnitude and is Revered and Glorified, and because of it He is al-Ikraam, the
One Who Gives from His Favours and Generosity. He is extremely vast in
Graciousness and Splendor. The One Who is Generous (al-Kareem) to His slaves
that obey Him, those that glorify Him, praise Him and love Him. [Taken from Tafseer as-Sa’dee (Pg. 830)]
