Al-Jalalayn Commentary

If We willed We could make it bitter salty undrinkable — why then will you not give thanks?

Scholars offer complementary perspectives

(If We willed We verily could make it) i.e. pure water (bitter. Why, then, give ye not thanks) for its purity and therefore believe?

Why did you not take off its skin and make use of that?
