إِن يَشَأْ يُسْكِنِ ٱلرِّيحَ فَيَظْلَلْنَ رَوَاكِدَ عَلَىٰ ظَهْرِهِۦٓ ۚ إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَءَايَٰتٍۢ لِّكُلِّ صَبَّارٍۢ شَكُورٍ﴿٣٣﴾
Translation (Sahih International)
If He willed, He could still the wind, and they would remain motionless on its surface. Indeed in that are signs for everyone patient and grateful.
Word-by-word meaning
Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
Ships are also among the Signs of AllahAllah tells us that another sign of His great power and dominion is the fact that He has subjugated the sea so that ships may sail in it by His command, so they sail in the sea like mountains. This was the view of Mujahid, Al-Hasan, As-Suddi and Ad-Dahhak. In other words, these ships on the sea are like mountains on land.إِن يَشَأْ يُسْكِنِ الرِّيحَ(If He wills, He causes the wind to cease,) means, the winds that cause the ships to travel on the sea.
