When the Seas Blaze
وَإِذَا ٱلۡبِحَارُ سُجِّرَتۡ ٦
And when the seas rise.
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
Meaning
When the seas are set ablaze.
Insight
Elmalılı says “tasjir” means heating with blazing fire and filling, and relates that it may be the seas set aflame through volcanoes.
Reflect
Today, put out your anger instead of “stoking” it.
