يُنۢبِتُ لَكُم بِهِ ٱلزَّرْعَ وَٱلزَّيْتُونَ وَٱلنَّخِيلَ وَٱلْأَعْنَٰبَ وَمِن كُلِّ ٱلثَّمَرَٰتِ ۗ إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَءَايَةًۭ لِّقَوْمٍۢ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ

He causes to grow for you thereby the crops, olives, palm trees, grapevines, and from all the fruits. Indeed in that is a sign for a people who give thought.

(واخْتَلَفُوا) فِي: ﴿يُنْبِتُ لَكُمْ﴾، فَرَوى أبُو بَكْرٍ بِالنُونِ، وقَرَأ الباقُونَ بِالياءِ.

12

وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمُ ٱلَّيْلَ وَٱلنَّهَارَ وَٱلشَّمْسَ وَٱلْقَمَرَ ۖ وَٱلنُّجُومُ مُسَخَّرَٰتٌۢ بِأَمْرِهِۦٓ ۗ إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَءَايَٰتٍۢ لِّقَوْمٍۢ يَعْقِلُونَ

And He has subjected for you the night and day and the sun and moon, and the stars are subjected by His command. Indeed in that are signs for a people who reason.

(واخْتَلَفُوا) فِي: ﴿والشَمْسَ والقَمَرَ والنُجُومَ مُسَخَّراتٍ﴾ [الأعراف: ٥٤] فَقَرَأ ابْنُ عامِرٍ بِرَفْعِ الأسْماءِ الأرْبَعَةِ وافَقَهُ حَفْصٌ في الحَرْفَيْنِ الأخِيرَيْنِ، وهُما ﴿والنُجُومُ مُسَخَّراتٌ﴾، وقَرَأ الباقُونَ بِنَصْبِ الأرْبَعَةِ وكَسْرِ تاءِ ﴿مُسَخَّراتٍ﴾ [الأعراف: ٥٤] (واخْتُلِفَ) في ﴿والَّذِينَ تَدْعُونَ﴾ [الأعراف: ١٩٧] فَقَرَأ يَعْقُوبُ، وعاصِمٌ بِالغَيْبِ، وقَرَأ الباقُونَ بِالخِطابِ.

13

وَمَا ذَرَأَ لَكُمْ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ مُخْتَلِفًا أَلْوَٰنُهُۥٓ ۗ إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَءَايَةًۭ لِّقَوْمٍۢ يَذَّكَّرُونَ

And [He has subjected] whatever He multiplied for you on the earth of varying colors. Indeed in that is a sign for a people who remember.

وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِى سَخَّرَ ٱلْبَحْرَ لِتَأْكُلُوا۟ مِنْهُ لَحْمًۭا طَرِيًّۭا وَتَسْتَخْرِجُوا۟ مِنْهُ حِلْيَةًۭ تَلْبَسُونَهَا وَتَرَى ٱلْفُلْكَ مَوَاخِرَ فِيهِ وَلِتَبْتَغُوا۟ مِن فَضْلِهِۦ وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ
