22

۞ إِنَّ شَرَّ ٱلدَّوَآبِّ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلصُّمُّ ٱلْبُكْمُ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَعْقِلُونَ

Indeed, the worst of living creatures in the sight of Allah are the deaf and dumb who do not use reason.

﴿ٱلدَّوَآبِّ﴾: جَمْعُ دابّة، وهي: ما دَبَّ على الأرضِ مِن خَلْقِ اللهِ.

﴿ٱلصُّمُّ﴾: مَنِ انسَدَّتْ آذانُهم عن سماعِ الحقِّ.

﴿ٱلۡبُكۡمُ﴾: مَن خَرِسَتْ ألسنتُهم عن النُّطقِ به.

23

وَلَوْ عَلِمَ ٱللَّهُ فِيهِمْ خَيْرًۭا لَّأَسْمَعَهُمْ ۖ وَلَوْ أَسْمَعَهُمْ لَتَوَلَّوا۟ وَّهُم مُّعْرِضُونَ

Had Allah known any good in them, He would have made them hear. And if He had made them hear, they would [still] have turned away, while they were refusing.

﴿لَّأَسۡمَعَهُمۡ﴾: مواعِظَ القرآنِ وعِبَرَه.

﴿لَتَوَلَّواْ﴾: لَأَعْرَضُوا عن الإيمان عِنادًا.

﴿مُّعۡرِضُونَ﴾: صادُّون عنه.

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ ٱسْتَجِيبُوا۟ لِلَّهِ وَلِلرَّسُولِ إِذَا دَعَاكُمْ لِمَا يُحْيِيكُمْ ۖ وَٱعْلَمُوٓا۟ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَحُولُ بَيْنَ ٱلْمَرْءِ وَقَلْبِهِۦ وَأَنَّهُۥٓ إِلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُونَ

O you who have believed, respond to Allah and to the Messenger when he calls you to that which gives you life. And know that Allah intervenes between a man and his heart and that to Him you will be gathered.

﴿لِمَا يُحۡيِيكُمۡ﴾: لما فيه الحياةُ الأبديةُ.

﴿بَيۡنَ ٱلۡمَرۡءِ وَقَلۡبِهِۦ﴾: بين الإنسانِ وخواطِرِ قلبِه، فاللهُ أملكُ لقلوبِ عبادِه منهم.

25

وَٱتَّقُوا۟ فِتْنَةًۭ لَّا تُصِيبَنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ مِنكُمْ خَآصَّةًۭ ۖ وَٱعْلَمُوٓا۟ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ شَدِيدُ ٱلْعِقَابِ

And fear a trial which will not strike those who have wronged among you exclusively, and know that Allah is severe in penalty.

﴿فِتۡنَةࣰ﴾: ابتلاءً ومِحْنَةً تنزِلُ بكم.

وَٱذْكُرُوٓا۟ إِذْ أَنتُمْ قَلِيلٌۭ مُّسْتَضْعَفُونَ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ تَخَافُونَ أَن يَتَخَطَّفَكُمُ ٱلنَّاسُ فَـَٔاوَىٰكُمْ وَأَيَّدَكُم بِنَصْرِهِۦ وَرَزَقَكُم مِّنَ ٱلطَّيِّبَٰتِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ

And remember when you were few and oppressed in the land, fearing that people might abduct you, but He sheltered you, supported you with His victory, and provided you with good things - that you might be grateful.

﴿مُّسۡتَضۡعَفُونَ﴾: قليلُو العَدَدِ، مَقْهُورون.

﴿يَتَخَطَّفَكُمُ﴾: يَأْخُذَكُم بسُرعةٍ.

﴿ٱلنَّاسُ﴾: كفارُ قريشٍ.

﴿فَـَٔاوَىٰكُمۡ﴾: جَعَلَ اللهُ لكم «المدينةَ» مَأْوىً تَأْوُون إليه.

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَا تَخُونُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ وَٱلرَّسُولَ وَتَخُونُوٓا۟ أَمَٰنَٰتِكُمْ وَأَنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ

O you who have believed, do not betray Allah and the Messenger or betray your trusts while you know [the consequence].

﴿لَا تَخُونُواْ ٱللَّهَ﴾: بتَرْكِ ما أوْجَبَه عليكم، وارتكابِ ما نَهاكم عنه.

﴿أَمَـٰنَـٰتِكُمۡ﴾: ما ائتُمِنتُم عليه من التكاليفِ الشرعيةِ.

وَٱعْلَمُوٓا۟ أَنَّمَآ أَمْوَٰلُكُمْ وَأَوْلَٰدُكُمْ فِتْنَةٌۭ وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ عِندَهُۥٓ أَجْرٌ عَظِيمٌۭ

And know that your properties and your children are but a trial and that Allah has with Him a great reward.

﴿فِتۡنَةࣱ﴾: اختبارٌ لكم.

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ إِن تَتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ يَجْعَل لَّكُمْ فُرْقَانًۭا وَيُكَفِّرْ عَنكُمْ سَيِّـَٔاتِكُمْ وَيَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ ذُو ٱلْفَضْلِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ

O you who have believed, if you fear Allah, He will grant you a criterion and will remove from you your misdeeds and forgive you. And Allah is the possessor of great bounty.

وَإِذْ يَمْكُرُ بِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ لِيُثْبِتُوكَ أَوْ يَقْتُلُوكَ أَوْ يُخْرِجُوكَ ۚ وَيَمْكُرُونَ وَيَمْكُرُ ٱللَّهُ ۖ وَٱللَّهُ خَيْرُ ٱلْمَٰكِرِينَ

And [remember, O Muhammad], when those who disbelieved plotted against you to restrain you or kill you or evict you [from Makkah]. But they plan, and Allah plans. And Allah is the best of planners.

﴿يَمۡكُرُ بِكَ﴾: يَكِيدُ لك.

﴿لِيُثۡبِتُوكَ﴾: ليَحْبِسُوك.

﴿يُخۡرِجُوكَ﴾: من بلدِك «مكةَ».
