وَمِمَّنْ خَلَقْنَآ أُمَّةٌۭ يَهْدُونَ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَبِهِۦ يَعْدِلُونَ

And among those We created is a community which guides by truth and thereby establishes justice.

﴿يَهۡدُونَ بِٱلۡحَقِّ﴾: يَسْتقيمون على الحقِّ، ويَدْعُون الناسَ إلى الهدايةِ.

﴿وَبِهِۦ يَعۡدِلُونَ﴾: وبالحقِّ يقْضُون بينَ الناسِ.

أَوَلَمْ يَتَفَكَّرُوا۟ ۗ مَا بِصَاحِبِهِم مِّن جِنَّةٍ ۚ إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا نَذِيرٌۭ مُّبِينٌ

أَوَلَمْ يَنظُرُوا۟ فِى مَلَكُوتِ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا خَلَقَ ٱللَّهُ مِن شَىْءٍۢ وَأَنْ عَسَىٰٓ أَن يَكُونَ قَدِ ٱقْتَرَبَ أَجَلُهُمْ ۖ فَبِأَىِّ حَدِيثٍۭ بَعْدَهُۥ يُؤْمِنُونَ

Do they not look into the realm of the heavens and the earth and everything that Allah has created and [think] that perhaps their appointed time has come near? So in what statement hereafter will they believe?

187

يَسْـَٔلُونَكَ عَنِ ٱلسَّاعَةِ أَيَّانَ مُرْسَىٰهَا ۖ قُلْ إِنَّمَا عِلْمُهَا عِندَ رَبِّى ۖ لَا يُجَلِّيهَا لِوَقْتِهَآ إِلَّا هُوَ ۚ ثَقُلَتْ فِى ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ ۚ لَا تَأْتِيكُمْ إِلَّا بَغْتَةًۭ ۗ يَسْـَٔلُونَكَ كَأَنَّكَ حَفِىٌّ عَنْهَا ۖ قُلْ إِنَّمَا عِلْمُهَا عِندَ ٱللَّهِ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ ٱلنَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ

They ask you, [O Muhammad], about the Hour: when is its arrival? Say, "Its knowledge is only with my Lord. None will reveal its time except Him. It lays heavily upon the heavens and the earth. It will not come upon you except unexpectedly." They ask you as if you are familiar with it. Say, "Its knowledge is only with Allah, but most of the people do not know."

﴿مُرۡسَىٰهَا﴾: قيامُها.

﴿لَا يُجَلِّيهَا﴾: لا يُظْهِرُها.

﴿ثَقُلَتۡ فِي ٱلسَّمَـٰوَ ٰ⁠تِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ﴾: ثَقُلَ عِلْمُ قيامِ الساعةِ، وخَفِيَ على أهلِ السمواتِ والأرض.

﴿بَغۡتَةࣰ﴾: فجأةً.

﴿حَفِيٌّ عَنۡهَا﴾: عالِمٌ بها، مُسْتَقْصٍ بالسؤالِ عنها.

188

قُل لَّآ أَمْلِكُ لِنَفْسِى نَفْعًۭا وَلَا ضَرًّا إِلَّا مَا شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ ۚ وَلَوْ كُنتُ أَعْلَمُ ٱلْغَيْبَ لَٱسْتَكْثَرْتُ مِنَ ٱلْخَيْرِ وَمَا مَسَّنِىَ ٱلسُّوٓءُ ۚ إِنْ أَنَا۠ إِلَّا نَذِيرٌۭ وَبَشِيرٌۭ لِّقَوْمٍۢ يُؤْمِنُونَ

Say, "I hold not for myself [the power of] benefit or harm, except what Allah has willed. And if I knew the unseen, I could have acquired much wealth, and no harm would have touched me. I am not except a warner and a bringer of good tidings to a people who believe."

189

۞ هُوَ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَكُم مِّن نَّفْسٍۢ وَٰحِدَةٍۢ وَجَعَلَ مِنْهَا زَوْجَهَا لِيَسْكُنَ إِلَيْهَا ۖ فَلَمَّا تَغَشَّىٰهَا حَمَلَتْ حَمْلًا خَفِيفًۭا فَمَرَّتْ بِهِۦ ۖ فَلَمَّآ أَثْقَلَت دَّعَوَا ٱللَّهَ رَبَّهُمَا لَئِنْ ءَاتَيْتَنَا صَٰلِحًۭا لَّنَكُونَنَّ مِنَ ٱلشَّٰكِرِينَ

It is He who created you from one soul and created from it its mate that he might dwell in security with her. And when he covers her, she carries a light burden and continues therein. And when it becomes heavy, they both invoke Allah, their Lord, "If You should give us a good [child], we will surely be among the grateful."

﴿نَّفۡسࣲ وَ ٰ⁠حِدَةࣲ﴾: هي آدمُ عليه السلام.

﴿وَجَعَلَ مِنۡهَا﴾: وخَلَقَ منها.

﴿زَوۡجَهَا﴾: هي حواءُ.

﴿لِيَسۡكُنَ إِلَيۡهَا﴾: ليأنسَ ويطمئِنَّ بها.

﴿تَغَشَّىٰهَا﴾: جامَعَها، والمرادُ جنسُ الزوجين مِن ذريةِ آدمَ.

﴿فَمَرَّتۡ بِهِۦ﴾: استمرَّ بذلك الحَمْلِ إلى تمامهِ.

﴿أَثۡقَلَت﴾: صارت ذات ثِقَلٍ بكِبَرِ الحَمْلِ.

﴿صَـٰلِحࣰا﴾: أي: خَلْقًا سَوِيًّا صالحًا.

فَلَمَّآ ءَاتَىٰهُمَا صَٰلِحًۭا جَعَلَا لَهُۥ شُرَكَآءَ فِيمَآ ءَاتَىٰهُمَا ۚ فَتَعَٰلَى ٱللَّهُ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ

But when He gives them a good [child], they ascribe partners to Him concerning that which He has given them. Exalted is Allah above what they associate with Him.

﴿جَعَلَا﴾: أي: الزوجان من ذريةِ آدمَ.

﴿لَهُۥ شُرَكَآءَ﴾: أي: للهِ في ذلك الوَلَدِ، كنَحْوِ تسميتِه: عبدَ العُزّى.
