Based on over 45 years of teaching and research, this tafsir follows the methodology of Tafsir bil-Ma'thur — interpreting the Quran through authentic Hadith, statements of the Companions, and the understanding of the early generations (Salaf).

➋ { سَيَهْدِيْنِ :} This is originally {’’سَيَهْدِيْنِيْ‘‘}, here the “seen” is for emphasis, that is why it is translated as “He will surely guide me.” When Ibrahim (peace be upon him) left his homeland, he did not know where to go, but due to his trust in his Lord, he was certain that He would surely guide him. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: [ اِحْفَظِ اللّٰهَ يَحْفَظْكَ ] [ ترمذي، صفۃ القیامۃ والرقائق، باب : ۲۵۱۶ ] “Be mindful of Allah, He will be mindful of you.” And it is certain that whoever leaves something for the sake of Allah, Allah grants him something better than it. Thus, Allah guided him towards the blessed land of Sham.

Migration Towards Syria:
When your father and your entire people became mortal enemies to you, you decided to leave your homeland, realizing that it was better to depart. At the time of departure, you did not even know where you were to go. You only said that you were setting out on migration for the sake of Allah. Where you should go, your Lord Himself would tell you and guide you. Thus, by Allah’s command, you were ordered to go towards Syria, and you set out in that direction along with your wife and your nephew or cousin, Sayyiduna Lut. Until that time, only Sayyiduna Lut had believed in you, and you had no children yet.
