(105:5) and made them like straw eaten up (by cattle). *7

Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

*7) The word asfas used in the original has already occurred in verse 12 of Surah Ar-Rahman above: dhul-'asf war-raihan: "and corn with husk as well as grain". This shows that asf means the outer covering of seeds, which the farmer throws away after the grain has been separated from it. Then the animals eat it, and some of it falls down in the chewing and some is trampled under the hoofs.
