I don’t understand the tafseer you are trying to explain Sr. Jinan. Can you share the reference via a link so I can read it directly please? thanks

Salaam sister Seema. When i said “they” i was referring to the sahaba (ra), not the mountains. Apologies for the confusion.

As for the tafseer of that verse in particular, scholars have said that the heavens and the earth and the mountains were given the choice to undertake this amanah (i.e. praying, fasting etc), and that if they fulfilled it they would be rewarded and if not they would be punished, but they preferred to do Allah’s Will and not have rewards or punishments. They did not disobey Allah, but were simply given the choice. In another aya, Allah says:

“Then He directed Himself to the heaven while it was smoke and said to it and to the earth, “Come [into being], willingly or by compulsion.” They said, “We have come willingly.” [Surat Fussilat, 41:11]

Hope that helps.

I don’t understand Hazrat Ali’s (AS) saying and your sentence after it:“Their prayer differed from ours, because their feelings towards the prayer differed”. You make it sound as if the mountains pray differently and that they refused to pray the way Allah asked them to? Did they disobey Allah like Iblis did? I am very confused.

Fuseina’s idea is a brilliant. A transliteration and/or recording of someone reciting it in Arabic for readers who are not fluent in Arabic would be of very great help for me as well 😀
