A stake is a peg driven deep into the ground to hold something together. The Arabs would drive the poles holding the tent cloth deep into the ground to prevent the wind from taking their tent away.
Similarly, mountains are embedded deep like stakes, forming part of the earth’s crustal balance with their deep roots.
In this passage, this will be the only verse where Allah will not mention a verb. In each verse, He uses past perfect verbs such as made, created and constructed except this verse. Let us go with the flow of the surah and let it explain itself why that is the case.
