71

قَالَ قَدْ وَقَعَ عَلَيْكُم مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ رِجْسٌۭ وَغَضَبٌ ۖ أَتُجَٰدِلُونَنِى فِىٓ أَسْمَآءٍۢ سَمَّيْتُمُوهَآ أَنتُمْ وَءَابَآؤُكُم مَّا نَزَّلَ ٱللَّهُ بِهَا مِن سُلْطَٰنٍۢ ۚ فَٱنتَظِرُوٓا۟ إِنِّى مَعَكُم مِّنَ ٱلْمُنتَظِرِينَ

[Hud] said, "Already have defilement and anger fallen upon you from your Lord. Do you dispute with me concerning [mere] names you have named them, you and your fathers, for which Allah has not sent down any authority? Then wait; indeed, I am with you among those who wait."

﴿قالَ قَدْ وقَعَ﴾ وجَبَ ﴿عَلَيْكُمْ مِن رَبّكُمْ رِجْس﴾ عَذاب ﴿وغَضَب أتُجادِلُونَنِي فِي أسْماء سَمَّيْتُمُوها أنْتُمْ وأَباؤُكُمْ﴾ أيْ سَمَّيْتُمْ بِها أصْنامًا تَعْبُدُونَها ﴿ما نَزَلَ اللَّه بِها﴾ أيْ بِعِبادَتِها ﴿مِن سُلْطان﴾ حُجَّة وبُرْهان ﴿فانْتَظِرُوا﴾ العَذاب ﴿إنِّي مَعَكُمْ مِن المُنْتَظِرِينَ﴾ ذَلِكُمْ بِتَكْذِيبِكُمْ لِي فَأَرْسَلْت عَلَيْهِمْ الرِّيح العَقِيم

فَأَنجَيْنَٰهُ وَٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُۥ بِرَحْمَةٍۢ مِّنَّا وَقَطَعْنَا دَابِرَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَذَّبُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا ۖ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ مُؤْمِنِينَ

So We saved him and those with him by mercy from Us. And We eliminated those who denied Our signs, and they were not [at all] believers.

﴿فَأَنْجَيْناهُ﴾ أيْ هُودًا ﴿والَّذِينَ مَعَهُ﴾ مِن المُؤْمِنِينَ ﴿بِرَحْمَةٍ مِنّا وقَطَعْنا دابِر﴾ القَوْم ﴿الَّذِينَ كَذَّبُوا بِآياتِنا﴾ أيْ اسْتَأْصَلْناهُمْ ﴿وما كانُوا مُؤْمِنِينَ﴾ عَطْف عَلى كَذَّبُوا

وَإِلَىٰ ثَمُودَ أَخَاهُمْ صَٰلِحًۭا ۗ قَالَ يَٰقَوْمِ ٱعْبُدُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ مَا لَكُم مِّنْ إِلَٰهٍ غَيْرُهُۥ ۖ قَدْ جَآءَتْكُم بَيِّنَةٌۭ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ ۖ هَٰذِهِۦ نَاقَةُ ٱللَّهِ لَكُمْ ءَايَةًۭ ۖ فَذَرُوهَا تَأْكُلْ فِىٓ أَرْضِ ٱللَّهِ ۖ وَلَا تَمَسُّوهَا بِسُوٓءٍۢ فَيَأْخُذَكُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌۭ

And to the Thamud [We sent] their brother Salih. He said, "O my people, worship Allah; you have no deity other than Him. There has come to you clear evidence from your Lord. This is the she-camel of Allah [sent] to you as a sign. So leave her to eat within Allah 's land and do not touch her with harm, lest there seize you a painful punishment.

﴿و﴾ أرْسَلْنا ﴿إلى ثَمُود﴾ بِتَرْكِ الصَّرْف مُرادًا بِهِ القَبِيلَة ﴿أخاهُمْ صالِحًا قالَ يا قَوْم اُعْبُدُوا اللَّه ما لَكُمْ مِن إلَه غَيْره قَدْ جاءَتْكُمْ بَيِّنَة﴾ مُعْجِزَة ﴿مِن رَبّكُمْ﴾ عَلى صِدْقِي ﴿هَذِهِ ناقَة اللَّه لَكُمْ آيَة﴾ حال عامِلها مَعْنى الإشارَة وكانُوا سَأَلُوهُ أنْ يُخْرِجها لَهُمْ مِن صَخْرَة عَيَّنُوها ﴿فَذَرُوها تَأْكُل فِي أرْض اللَّه ولا تَمَسُّوها بِسُوءٍ﴾ بِعَقْرٍ أوْ ضَرْب

وَٱذْكُرُوٓا۟ إِذْ جَعَلَكُمْ خُلَفَآءَ مِنۢ بَعْدِ عَادٍۢ وَبَوَّأَكُمْ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ تَتَّخِذُونَ مِن سُهُولِهَا قُصُورًۭا وَتَنْحِتُونَ ٱلْجِبَالَ بُيُوتًۭا ۖ فَٱذْكُرُوٓا۟ ءَالَآءَ ٱللَّهِ وَلَا تَعْثَوْا۟ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ مُفْسِدِينَ

And remember when He made you successors after the 'Aad and settled you in the land, [and] you take for yourselves palaces from its plains and carve from the mountains, homes. Then remember the favors of Allah and do not commit abuse on the earth, spreading corruption."

﴿واذْكُرُوا إذْ جَعَلَكُمْ خُلَفاء﴾ فِي الأَرْض ﴿مِن بَعْد عادٍ وبَوَّأَكُمْ﴾ أسْكَنَكُمْ ﴿فِي الأَرْض تَتَّخِذُونَ مِن سُهُولها قُصُورًا﴾ تَسْكُنُونَها فِي الصَّيْف ﴿وتَنْحِتُونَ الجِبال بُيُوتًا﴾ تَسْكُنُونَها فِي الشِّتاء ونَصَبَهُ عَلى الحال المُقَدَّرَة

Said the eminent ones who were arrogant among his people to those who were oppressed - to those who believed among them, "Do you [actually] know that Salih is sent from his Lord?" They said, "Indeed we, in that with which he was sent, are believers."

﴿قالَ المَلَأ الَّذِينَ اسْتَكْبَرُوا مِن قَوْمه﴾ تَكَبَّرُوا عَنْ الإيمان بِهِ ﴿لِلَّذِينَ اُسْتُضْعِفُوا لِمَن آمَنَ مِنهُمْ﴾ أيْ مِن قَوْمه بَدَل مِمّا قَبْله بِإعادَةِ الجار ﴿أتَعْلَمُونَ أنَّ صالِحًا مُرْسَل مِن رَبّه﴾ إلَيْكُمْ ﴿قالُوا﴾ نَعَمْ
