50:6

أَفَلَمْ يَنظُرُوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَآءِ فَوْقَهُمْ كَيْفَ بَنَيْنَـٰهَا وَزَيَّنَّـٰهَا وَمَا لَهَا مِن فُرُوجٍۢ ٦

Saheeh International

Have they not looked at the heaven above them - how We structured it and adorned it and [how] it has no rifts?

Tafsir of "Ibn Kathir" (English)

Allah's Power and Ability over what is Greater than Resurrection Allah the Exalted notifies the servants of His infinite power, which He demonstrated by creating what is bigger than that which they wondered about and whose possibility they discount,أَفَلَمْ يَنظُرُوا إِلَى السَّمَاءفَوْقَهُمْ كَيْفَ بَنَيْنَاهَا وَزَيَّنَّاهَاHave they not looked at the heaven above them, how We have made it and adorned it, (with lamps);وَمَا لَهَا مِن فُرُوجٍand there are no Furuj in it.i.e., clefts, according to Mujahid.Others said that Furuj means, rifts, or cracks.All these meanings are close to one another.Allah the Exalted and Most Honored said,الَّذِى خَلَقَ سَبْعَ سَمَـوَتٍ طِبَاقًا مَّا تَرَى فِى خَلْقِ الرَّحْمَـنِ مِن تَفَـوُتٍ فَارْجِعِ الْبَصَرَ هَلْ تَرَى مِن فُطُورٍثُمَّ اْرجِعِ البَصَرَ كَرَّتَيْنِ يَنقَلِبْ إِلَيْكَ البَصَرُ خَاسِيًا وَهُوَ حَسِيرٌWho has created the seven heavens one above another; you can see no fault in the creation of the Most Gracious. Then look again:"Can you see any rifts" Then look again and yet again, your sight will return to you in a state of humiliation and worn out. (67:3-4)fatigued, unable to discover any imperfection or shortcomings.The statement of Allah the Exalted, the Blessed
