Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)

The Exhortation to look at the Creation of the Camel, the Heaven, the Mountains and the EarthAllah commands His servants to look at His creations that prove His power and greatness. He says,أَفَلاَ يَنظُرُونَ إِلَى الإِبِلِ كَيْفَ خُلِقَتْ(Do they not look at the camels, how they are created) Indeed it is an amazing creation, and the way it has been fashioned is strange. For it is extremely powerful and strong, yet gentle, carrying heavy loads. It allows itself to be guided by a weak rider.
