لَهُۥ مَا فِى ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَمَا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا وَمَا تَحْتَ ٱلثَّرَىٰ
2:285; 3:130; 5:19.
Important Words:
الثری (moist sub-soil) is derived from ثری (thariya). They say ثریت الارض i.e. the earth or land became moist and soft after drought or dryness. ثری means moisture; humidity of the earth; moist earth. The Arabs say یبس الثری بینھم i.e. the fresh, vigorous friendship between them withered—they became enemies after they were friends. The word also means, good or anything good. They say فلان قریب الثری i.e. such a one is a person from whom good is easy of attainment. تحت الثری means, what is beneath the earth (Lane & Aqrab).
Commentary:
The verse means to say that as the Quran has been revealed by God Whose dominion and control extend to all that is in the heavens and the earth, so all the celestial and terrestrial forces will be pressed into service to further the cause of Islam.
