Question:
I came across an audio belonging to some people saying...
Prophet Dawuud ﷺ & Metalworking
Question:
What’s the interpretation of the statement of the Most High regarding His Prophet Dawuud:
(وَأَلَنَّا لَهُ ٱلْحَدِيدَ)
“And We made the iron soft for him.”
[As-Saba:10]
Was he able to mold metal without using fire to soften it beforehand?
Answer:
This is what has come from the Salaf in regards to the interpretation of the verse.
It has come from Al-Hassan, Qatāda, Al-A’mash and other than them that:
“He didn’t have to enter metal into fire nor beat it with a hammer, rather he would curl it with his hands like a string.”
[End of speech from “Tafsīr-ul-Qur’ān-il-‘Athīm” of Ibn Kathīr]
