Reading Tanwir al-Miqbas min Tafsir Ibn 'Abbas by Attributed to Ibn 'Abbas

Ayahs 51–60 of 109

51

أَثُمَّ إِذَا مَا وَقَعَ ءَامَنتُم بِهِۦٓ ۚ ءَآلْـَٰٔنَ وَقَدْ كُنتُم بِهِۦ تَسْتَعْجِلُونَ

Then is it that when it has [actually] occurred you will believe in it? Now? And you were [once] for it impatient

Say to them, O Muhammad: (Is it (only) then, when it hath befallen you) when the punishment has befallen you, (that you will believe?) They said: �Yes!� Say to them, O Muhammad, that it is said to them: (What! (Believe) now) in the punishment, (when (until now) ye have been hastening it) the punishment (on (through disbelief)) out of mockery?

52

ثُمَّ قِيلَ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ ذُوقُوا۟ عَذَابَ ٱلْخُلْدِ هَلْ تُجْزَوْنَ إِلَّا بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَكْسِبُونَ

Then it will be said to those who had wronged, "Taste the punishment of eternity; are you being recompensed except for what you used to earn?"

(Then will it be said unto those who dealt unjustly) the idolaters: (Taste the torment of eternity. Are ye requited) in the Hereafter (aught save what ye used to earn) do and say in the life of this world?

53

۞ وَيَسْتَنۢبِـُٔونَكَ أَحَقٌّ هُوَ ۖ قُلْ إِى وَرَبِّىٓ إِنَّهُۥ لَحَقٌّۭ ۖ وَمَآ أَنتُم بِمُعْجِزِينَ

And they ask information of you, [O Muhammad], "Is it true?" Say, "Yes, by my Lord. Indeed, it is truth; and you will not cause failure [to Allah]."

(And they ask thee) O Muhammad (to inform them) i.e. about the punishment and the Qur'an ((saying): Is it true) i.e. the punishment and the Qur'an? (Say: Yea, by my Lord) say: yes, by my Lord, (verily it is true) the punishment will truly happen, (and ye cannot escape) Allah's punishment.

54

وَلَوْ أَنَّ لِكُلِّ نَفْسٍۢ ظَلَمَتْ مَا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ لَٱفْتَدَتْ بِهِۦ ۗ وَأَسَرُّوا۟ ٱلنَّدَامَةَ لَمَّا رَأَوُا۟ ٱلْعَذَابَ ۖ وَقُضِىَ بَيْنَهُم بِٱلْقِسْطِ ۚ وَهُمْ لَا يُظْلَمُونَ

And if each soul that wronged had everything on earth, it would offer it in ransom. And they will confide regret when they see the punishment; and they will be judged in justice, and they will not be wronged

(And if each soul that doeth wrong) that ascribes partners to Allah (had all that is in the earth it would seek to ransom itself therewith) it would ransom itself from Allah's punishment; (and they will feel remorse within them) the leaders will conceal their remorse from the lowly among people, (when they see the doom) when they see the chastisement. (But it hath been judged between them) and the lowly among people (fairly) with justice (and they are not wronged) none of their good works will be diminished and none of their evil deeds will be increased.

55

أَلَآ إِنَّ لِلَّهِ مَا فِى ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ ۗ أَلَآ إِنَّ وَعْدَ ٱللَّهِ حَقٌّۭ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ

Unquestionably, to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and the earth. Unquestionably, the promise of Allah is truth, but most of them do not know

(Lo! verily all that is in the heavens and the earth) of created beings and marvels (is Allah's. Lo! verily Allah's promise is true) resurrection after death will truly take place. (But most of them know not) most of them do not believe.

56

هُوَ يُحْىِۦ وَيُمِيتُ وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ

He gives life and causes death, and to Him you will be returned

(He quickeneth) upon the Resurrection (and giveth death) in the life of this world, (and unto Him ye will be returned) after death.

57

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاسُ قَدْ جَآءَتْكُم مَّوْعِظَةٌۭ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ وَشِفَآءٌۭ لِّمَا فِى ٱلصُّدُورِ وَهُدًۭى وَرَحْمَةٌۭ لِّلْمُؤْمِنِينَ

O mankind, there has to come to you instruction from your Lord and healing for what is in the breasts and guidance and mercy for the believers.

(O mankind!) O people of Mecca! (There hath come unto you an exhortation) a warning (from your Lord) regarding that which you are now in, (a balm) an exposition (for that which is in the breasts) of blindness, (a guidance) from error (and a mercy) which brings relief from punishment (for believers).

58

قُلْ بِفَضْلِ ٱللَّهِ وَبِرَحْمَتِهِۦ فَبِذَٰلِكَ فَلْيَفْرَحُوا۟ هُوَ خَيْرٌۭ مِّمَّا يَجْمَعُونَ

Say, "In the bounty of Allah and in His mercy - in that let them rejoice; it is better than what they accumulate."

(Say) O Muhammad, to your Companions: (In the bounty of Allah) in the Qur'an with which Allah has honoured you (and in His mercy) the religion of Islam, which Allah has given you success to follow: (therein) i.e. in the Qur'an and Islam (let them rejoice. It is better) i.e. the Qur'an and Islam (than what they hoard) is better than what the Jews and idolaters amass of wealth.

59

قُلْ أَرَءَيْتُم مَّآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ لَكُم مِّن رِّزْقٍۢ فَجَعَلْتُم مِّنْهُ حَرَامًۭا وَحَلَٰلًۭا قُلْ ءَآللَّهُ أَذِنَ لَكُمْ ۖ أَمْ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ تَفْتَرُونَ

Say, "Have you seen what Allah has sent down to you of provision of which you have made [some] lawful and [some] unlawful?" Say, "Has Allah permitted you [to do so], or do you invent [something] about Allah?"

(Say) O Muhammad, to the people of Mecca: (Have ye considered what provision) what crops and cattle (Allah hath sent down for you) Allah has created for you, (how ye have made of it lawful) for men (and unlawful) for women: i.e. the benefit of al-Bahirah, al-Sa'ibah and al-Ham? (Say) to them, O Muhammad: (Hath Allah permitted you) has Allah commanded this, (or do ye invent a lie concerning Allah) indeed you are inventing lies?

60

وَمَا ظَنُّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَفْتَرُونَ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ ٱلْكَذِبَ يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ ۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَذُو فَضْلٍ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَشْكُرُونَ

And what will be the supposition of those who invent falsehood about Allah on the Day of Resurrection? Indeed, Allah is full of bounty to the people, but most of them are not grateful."

(And what think those who invent a lie concerning Allah) He will do with them (upon the Day of Resurrection? Lo! Allah truly is Bountiful) favourable (towards mankind) by delaying His punishment, (but most of them give not thanks) for it nor do they believe.
