Al-Jalalayn Commentary

Or He Who made the earth an abode of stability that does not constantly shake beneath the feet of its inhabitants and made rivers to flow throughout it and set firm mountains for it with which He fixed the earth in place and set an isthmus between the two seas between the sweet one and the salty one the one not mixing with the other. Is there a god with God? Nay but most of them have no knowledge of His Oneness.

(Is not He (best) Who made the earth a fixed abode, and placed rivers in the folds thereof) in the middle thereof, (and placed firm hills therein) on earth, (and hath set a barrier) preventing mixture (between the two seas) the sweet and salty seas? (Is there any God beside Allah) who has done this? (Nay, but most of them know not) most of them believe not!
