Reading Al-Wajiz by Al-Wahidi
Ayahs 61–70 of 206
قَالَ يَٰقَوْمِ لَيْسَ بِى ضَلَٰلَةٌۭ وَلَٰكِنِّى رَسُولٌۭ مِّن رَّبِّ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ
[Noah] said, "O my people, there is not error in me, but I am a messenger from the Lord of the worlds."
Explained together with ayah 59
أُبَلِّغُكُمْ رِسَٰلَٰتِ رَبِّى وَأَنصَحُ لَكُمْ وَأَعْلَمُ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ
I convey to you the messages of my Lord and advise you; and I know from Allah what you do not know.
﴿وأنصح لكم﴾ أَيْ: أدعوكم إلى ما دعاني الله إليه ﴿وأعلم من الله ما لا تعلمون﴾ من أنَّه غفورٌ لمَنْ رجع عن معاصيه وأنَّ عذابه أليمٌ لمن أصرَّ عليها
أَوَعَجِبْتُمْ أَن جَآءَكُمْ ذِكْرٌۭ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ عَلَىٰ رَجُلٍۢ مِّنكُمْ لِيُنذِرَكُمْ وَلِتَتَّقُوا۟ وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تُرْحَمُونَ
Then do you wonder that there has come to you a reminder from your Lord through a man from among you, that he may warn you and that you may fear Allah so you might receive mercy."
﴿أوعجبتم أن جاءكم ذكر من ربكم﴾ موعظةٌ من الله ﴿على رجل﴾ على لسان رجل ﴿منكم﴾ تعرفون نسبه
فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَأَنجَيْنَٰهُ وَٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُۥ فِى ٱلْفُلْكِ وَأَغْرَقْنَا ٱلَّذِينَ كَذَّبُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَآ ۚ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَوْمًا عَمِينَ
But they denied him, so We saved him and those who were with him in the ship. And We drowned those who denied Our signs. Indeed, they were a blind people.
وقوله: ﴿إنهم كانوا قوماً عمين﴾ عميت قلوبهم عن معرفة الله تعالى وقدرته
۞ وَإِلَىٰ عَادٍ أَخَاهُمْ هُودًۭا ۗ قَالَ يَٰقَوْمِ ٱعْبُدُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ مَا لَكُم مِّنْ إِلَٰهٍ غَيْرُهُۥٓ ۚ أَفَلَا تَتَّقُونَ
And to the 'Aad [We sent] their brother Hud. He said, "O my people, worship Allah; you have no deity other than Him. Then will you not fear Him?"
﴿وإلى عاد أخاهم﴾ وأرسلنا إلى عادٍ أخاهم ابن أبيهم ﴿هوداً قال يا قوم اعبدوا الله﴾ وحِّدوا اللَّهَ ﴿مَا لَكُمْ مِنْ إِلَهٍ غَيْرُهُ أَفَلا تتقون﴾ أفلا تخافون نقمته
قَالَ ٱلْمَلَأُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِن قَوْمِهِۦٓ إِنَّا لَنَرَىٰكَ فِى سَفَاهَةٍۢ وَإِنَّا لَنَظُنُّكَ مِنَ ٱلْكَٰذِبِينَ
Said the eminent ones who disbelieved among his people, "Indeed, we see you in foolishness, and indeed, we think you are of the liars."
﴿قال الملأ﴾ الرُّؤساء والجماعة ﴿الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِنْ قَوْمِهِ إِنَّا لَنَرَاكَ فِي سفاهة﴾ حمقٍ وجهلٍ ﴿وإنا لنظنك من الكاذبين﴾ فيما جئت به من ادِّعاء النُّبوَّة
قَالَ يَٰقَوْمِ لَيْسَ بِى سَفَاهَةٌۭ وَلَٰكِنِّى رَسُولٌۭ مِّن رَّبِّ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ
[Hud] said, "O my people, there is not foolishness in me, but I am a messenger from the Lord of the worlds."
Explained together with ayah 66
أُبَلِّغُكُمْ رِسَٰلَٰتِ رَبِّى وَأَنَا۠ لَكُمْ نَاصِحٌ أَمِينٌ
I convey to you the messages of my Lord, and I am to you a trustworthy adviser.
وقوله: ﴿ناصح أمين﴾ أَيْ: على الرِّسالة لا أكذب فيها
أَوَعَجِبْتُمْ أَن جَآءَكُمْ ذِكْرٌۭ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ عَلَىٰ رَجُلٍۢ مِّنكُمْ لِيُنذِرَكُمْ ۚ وَٱذْكُرُوٓا۟ إِذْ جَعَلَكُمْ خُلَفَآءَ مِنۢ بَعْدِ قَوْمِ نُوحٍۢ وَزَادَكُمْ فِى ٱلْخَلْقِ بَصْۜطَةًۭ ۖ فَٱذْكُرُوٓا۟ ءَالَآءَ ٱللَّهِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ
Then do you wonder that there has come to you a reminder from your Lord through a man from among you, that he may warn you? And remember when He made you successors after the people of Noah and increased you in stature extensively. So remember the favors of Allah that you might succeed.
﴿وَاذْكُرُوا إِذْ جَعَلَكُمْ خُلَفَاءَ مِنْ بَعْدِ قَوْمِ نوحٍ﴾ أَيْ: استخلفكم في الأرض بعد هلاكهم ﴿وزادكم في الخلق بسطة﴾ فضيلةً في الطُّول ﴿فاذكروا آلاء الله﴾ نِعَمَ الله عليكم ﴿لعلكم تفلحون﴾ كي تسعدوا وتبقوا في الجنَّة
قَالُوٓا۟ أَجِئْتَنَا لِنَعْبُدَ ٱللَّهَ وَحْدَهُۥ وَنَذَرَ مَا كَانَ يَعْبُدُ ءَابَآؤُنَا ۖ فَأْتِنَا بِمَا تَعِدُنَآ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ ٱلصَّٰدِقِينَ
They said, "Have you come to us that we should worship Allah alone and leave what our fathers have worshipped? Then bring us what you promise us, if you should be of the truthful."
وقوله: ﴿فأتنا بما تعدنا﴾ أَيْ: من العذاب ﴿إِنْ كُنْتَ مِنَ الصَّادِقِينَ﴾ أنَّ العذاب نازلٌ بنا
