S 24:43 Have you not seen that Allah drives clouds then unites between them then makes them a cumulus cloud then you see the rain come out from its midst? And he sends down from the sky, from mountains therein, hail and strikes therewith whom he wills and averts it from whom he wills. The flash of its lightning nearly takes away the sight.
Commentaries. The Jalalayn: Have you not seen how God drives the clouds moves them along gently then composes them joining some with others and making scattered pieces as one then piles them up some on top of others whereat you see the rain issuing from the midst of them from specific outlets in them? And He sends down from the heaven out of the mountains min jibālin min is extra that are therein in the heaven fīhā substitutes for mina’l-samā’i ‘from the heaven’ with the repetition of a genitive preposition hail that is He sends down some hail and smites with it whom He will and turns it away from whom He will. The brilliance of its lightning its flashing would almost take away the eyes that look at it in other words it would almost snatching them away. https://www.altafsir.com/Tafasir.asp?tMadhNo=0&tTafsirNo=74&tSoraNo=24&tAyahNo=43&tDisplay=yes&UserProfile=0&LanguageId=2
Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs: (Hast thou not seen) have you not been informed, O Muhammad, in the Qur'an about (how Allah wafteth) drives about (the clouds, then gatherth them) then brings the clouds together, (then maketh them layers, and thou seest the rain come forth from between them) from between the clouds; (He sendeth down from the heaven mountains wherein is hail) He says: He sends down hail from mountains in heaven, (and smiteth therewith) and with hail He punishes (whom He will, and averteth it) and averts its punishment (from whom He will. The flashing of His lightning) the light emanating from lightning in the clouds (all but snatcheth away the sight) from the intensity of its light. https://www.altafsir.com/Tafasir.asp?tMadhNo=0&tTafsirNo=73&tSoraNo=24&tAyahNo=43&tDisplay=yes&UserProfile=0&LanguageId=2
