Due to its reliability and adherence to sound Islamic scholarship, the Saudi government publishes and distributes this tafsir among the Hujjaj (pilgrims) visiting the Haramain. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.
31-1. That is, the sailing of ships in the sea is also a manifestation of His grace and mercy and an example of His power of subjugation. He has arranged the wind and water in such a suitable manner that ships can sail on the surface of the sea; otherwise, if He wills, due to the intensity of the wind and the turbulence of the waves, it could become impossible for ships to sail.
31-2. Those who are patient in hardships, and those who are grateful to Allah in comfort and happiness.
