Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)

Allah's Power and Ability over what is Greater than ResurrectionAllah 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 يَنظُرُواْ إِلَى السَّمَآءِ فَوْقَهُمْ كَيْفَ بَنَيْنَـهَا وَزَيَّنَّـهَا(Have they not looked at the heaven above them, how We have made it and adorned it,) with lamps;وَمَا لَهَا مِن فُرُوجٍ(and there are no Furuj in it) i.e.
