Tafsir of 43:81
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ حم - تَنزِيلُ الْكِتَبِ مِنَ اللَّهِ الْعَزِيزِ الْعَلِيمِ (Ha-Mim. By the manifest Book.) means, plain and clear in both wording and meaning, because it was revealed in the language of the Arabs, which is the most eloquent language for communication among people.

(26:195) وَإِنَّهُ فِى أُمِّ الْكِتَبِ لَدَيْنَا لَعَلِىٌّ حَكِيمٌ (And verily, it is in the Mother of the Book with Us, indeed exalted, full of wisdom.) This explains the high status of the Qur'an among the hosts on high (the angels), so that the people of earth will respect it, venerate it and obey it. وَأَنَّهُ (And verily, it) means, the Qur'an, فِى أُمِّ الْكِتَبِ (is in the Mother of the Book) meaning, Al-Lawh Al-Mahfuz (the Preserved Tablet). This was the view of Ibn `Abbas and Mujahid.…
