In these verses Allah is asking the Prophet to have patience and celebrate His praise, in response to the verbal attacks of the polytheists towards the Prophet, such as labelling him as a magician, insane and a poet. Allah reminds the Prophet that the return of all creation is towards Him; and he has been asked to be alert when the cry will be heard by everyone, which will also be a sign of the Day of Judgement. <ref name=":16">Tabatabai, Al-Mizan fi Tafsir al-Quran, Volume 18, Page 360</ref> | In these verses Allah is asking the Prophet to have patience and celebrate His praise, in response to the verbal attacks of the polytheists towards the Prophet, such as labelling him as a magician, insane and a poet.

The reference to celebrate in verse 39: ‘and celebrate the praise of your Lord,’ means to consider Allah free from any traits that He is not deserving of, and to praise Him. The statement in verse 40: ‘and after the prostrations,’ is a reference to the acts of worship that follow the prayers, such as the recommended prayers after the obligatory ones, or the 2 units of prayers after Maghrib known as Salat al-Ghufaylah, or the one unit of Witr at the end of the night prayers. <ref name=":16" /> <ref name=":17">Ibn Kathir Damishqi, Tafsir al-Quran al-Azim, Volume 7, Page 383</ref> | The reference to celebrate in verse 39: ‘and celebrate the praise of your Lord,’ means to consider Allah free from any traits that He is not deserving of, and to praise Him.
