The word Infitar comes from the root word “Fatara”
or “Faatir” which literally means to tear something across horizontally. However,
in classical Arabic “it is usually used to describe tearing sheets of cloth.
From this ayah we learn how Allah speaks to us based on what our eyes see and
what our minds think. He uses imagery. So when we visualize a cloth being torn
length wise, we then compare that to the sky, and how on that Day, it will be
torn similarly. The sky will literally be stripped away. See how the Qur’an is full
of gems for us to collect? How, if we really thought and reflected upon it, we
would learn so much?
