But as for those who believe and do good deeds, their Lord will guide them because of their faith. Streams will flow at their feet in the Gardens of Bliss

Tafsir Commentary
The Good Reward is for the People of Faith and Good Deeds
In these two Ayat, Allah promises the happy blessings for those who believed in Allah and His Messengers. And for those that have complied with what they were commanded to follow. The promise is that He will guide them because of their faith, or it may mean through their faith. As to the first interpretation, the meaning is that Allah will guide them on the Day of Resurrection to the straight path until they pass into Paradise because of their faith in this world. The other meaning is that their faith will assist them on the Day of Resurrection as Mujahid said:
يَهْدِيهِمْ رَبُّهُمْ بِإِيمَانِهِمْ
(Their Lord will guide them through their faith) meaning "Their faith will be a light in which they will walk."
دَعْوَهُمْ فِيهَا سُبْحَـنَكَ اللَّهُمَّ وَتَحِيَّتُهُمْ فِيهَا سَلاَمٌ وَءَاخِرُ دَعْوَاهُمْ أَنِ الْحَمْدُ للَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَـلَمِينَ
(Their way of request therein will be: "Glory to You, O Allah!" And Salam (peace, safety from evil) will be their greetings therein! And the close of their request will be: "All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of all that exists.") meaning this is the condition of the people of Paradise. This is similar to what is found in the following Ayat:
تَحِيَّتُهُمْ يَوْمَ يَلْقَوْنَهُ سَلَـمٌ
(Their greeting on the Day they shall meet Him will be "Salam Peace!") 33:44,
لاَ يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْواً وَلاَ تَأْثِيماً - إِلاَّ قِيلاً سَلَـماً سَلَـماً
(No Laghw (dirty, false, evil vain talk) will they hear therein, nor any sinful speech. But only the saying of: Salam! Salam!!") 56:25-26,
سَلاَمٌ قَوْلاً مِّن رَّبٍّ رَّحِيمٍ
((It will be said to them): "Salam" -- a Word from the Lord, Most Merciful.) 36:58,
وَالمَلَـئِكَةُ يَدْخُلُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ مِّن كُلِّ بَابٍسَلَـمٌ عَلَيْكُمُ
(And angels shall enter unto them from every gate (saying): "Salamun `Alaykum (peace be upon you)!") 13:23-24 In Allah's statement,
وَءَاخِرُ دَعْوَاهُمْ أَنِ الْحَمْدُ للَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَـلَمِينَ
(And the close of their request will be: All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of all that exists.") There is an indication that Allah Almighty is the Praised One always, the Worshipped at all times. This is why He praised Himself at the beginning and the duration of His creation. He also praised Himself in the beginning of His Book and the beginning of its revelation. Allah said:
الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِى أَنْزَلَ عَلَى عَبْدِهِ الْكِتَـبَ
(All the praises and thanks be to Allah, Who has sent down to His servant the Book (the Qur'an).) 18:1,
الْحَمْدُ للَّهِ الَّذِى خَلَقَ السَّمَـوَتِ وَالاٌّرْضَ
(All praise is due to Allah, Who (alone) created the heavens and the earth,) 6:1, and many other citations with this meaning. The Ayah also indicates that Allah is the Praised One in this world and in the Hereafter and in all situations. In a Hadith recorded by Muslim:
«إِنَّ أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ يُلْهَمُونَ التَّسْبِيحَ وَالتَّحْمِيدَ كَمَا يُلْهَمُونَ النَّفَس»
(The people of Paradise will be inspired to glorify Allah and praise Him as they instinctively breath.) This will be their nature because of the increasing bounties of Allah upon them. These bounties are repeated and brought back again and increased with no limit or termination. So praise be to Allah for there is no God but He and no Lord save He.
Truly those who believe and perform righteous deeds their Lord will guide them He will lead them through their faith in Him by appointing for them a light with which they will be able to find their way on the Day of Resurrection. Rivers will flow beneath them in the Gardens of Bliss
Surely those who have faith and do wholesome deeds, their Lord will guide them in their faith. In terms of allusion according to the tasting of the folk of recognition, this verse has another inti- mation. He is saying that in reality the faithful and the good men are those whom the Unity keeps under the domes of jealousy through the blessing of generosity. He nurtures them with the beauty of solicitude, He gives them access to recognition of Him, and He brings them close to companion- ship with Him so that they will become one for Him and estranged from other than Him. The Pir of the Tariqah said, " TawḤīd is not just that you know Him to be one. True tawḤīd is that you be one for Him and estranged from other than Him. " The beginning of solicitude is that He gives them a goal in the Unseen to take them away from the world. When they become solitary, they are worthy for union with the Solitary. Your seeker must be solitary like You- he must be free of every defect and pain. Until the diver cuts his heart away from the kingdom of life, it is not permissible for the hand of his seeking to reach the desired pearl. What then do you say about someone who, in seeking His majesty and beauty, aims for the greatest salvation? As long as he does not wash his hands of love for life, how will he reach union with the proximity of the Beloved? In the session of Moses a poor man let out a cry. In anger Moses shouted at him. At once Gabriel came: " O Moses! God says, 'In your session, the owner of pain and possessor of heart was that one man. It was he who was present in your session for My sake. You shouted at him. Even though you are My speaking companion and My dear one, you do not see the secret that we have placed under a black blanket. It is yearning for My beauty that brings the friends into ecstasy. It is the demand for My beauty that pulls their hearts into the world of fear and hope, contraction and expansion. And God contracts and expands [2:245]. When the eyes are full of this world, they cannot hold the attribute of the afterworld.

إن الذين آمنوا بالله ورسوله وعملوا الصالحات يدلهم ربهم إلى طريق الجنة ويوفقهم إلى العمل الموصل إليه؛ بسبب إيمانهم، ثم يثيبهم بدخول الجنة وإحلال رضوانه عليهم، تجري من تحتهم الأنهار في جنات النعيم.
هذا إخبار عن حال السعداء الذين آمنوا بالله وصدقوا المرسلين وامتثلوا ما أمروا به فعملوا الصالحات بأنه سيهديهم بإيمانهم يحتمل أن تكون الباء ههنا سببية فتقديره أي بسبب إيمانهم في الدنيا يهديهم الله يوم القيامة على الصراط المستقيم حتى يجوزوه ويخلصوا إلى الجنة. ويحتمل أن تكون للإستعانة كما قال مجاهد في قوله "يهديهم ربهم بإيمانهم" قال يكون لهم نورا يمشون به; وقال ابن جريج في الآية يمثل له عمله في صورة حسنة وريح طيبة إذا قام من قبره يعارض صاحبه ويبشره بكل خير فيقول له من أنت؟ فيقول أنا عملك فيجعل له نوره من بين يديه حتى يدخله الجنة فذلك قوله تعالى "يهديهم ربهم بإيمانهم" والكافر يمثل له عمله في صورة سيئة وريح منتنة فيلزم صاحبه ويلاده حتى يقذفه في النار وروي نحوه عن قتادة مرسلا فالله أعلم.
بعد ذلك صفاتهم وثوابهم فقال - تعالى - : ( إِنَّ الذين آمَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ الصالحات ) .أى : آمنو بما يجب الإِيمان به ، وعملوا فى دنياهم الأعمال الصالحة التى ترفع درجاتهم عند ربهم .( يَهْدِيهِمْ رَبُّهُمْ بِإِيمَانِهِمْ ) أي يرشدهم ربهم ويوصلهم بسبب إيمانهم وعملهم الصالح إلى غايتهم وهي الجنة .وإنما لم تذكر تعويلا على ظهورها وانسياق النفس إليها ، بعد أن عرف أن مأوى الكافرين النار وبئس القرار . .قال الإِمام ابن كثير : يحتمل أن تكون الباء فى قوله ( بإيمانهم ) للسببية ، فيكون التقدير بسبب إيمانهم فى الدنيا يهديهم الله يوم القيامة إلى الصراط المستقيم حتى يجوزوه ويخلصوا إلى الجنة ، ويحتمل أن تكون للاستعانة كما قال مجاهد : ( يَهْدِيهِمْ رَبُّهُمْ بِإِيمَانِهِمْ ) : أى : يكون إيمانهم لهم نورا يمشون به وقال ابن جريج فى الآية : يمثل له عمله فى صورة حسنة وريح طيبة إذا قام من قبره يعارض صاحبه ويبشره بكل خير فيقول له من أنت؟ فيقول أنا عملك ، فيجعل له نوره من بين يديه حتى يدخله الجنة ، فذلك قوله - تعالى - ( يَهْدِيهِمْ رَبُّهُمْ بِإِيمَانِهِمْ ) . والكافر يمثل له عمله فى صورة سيئة . وريح منتنة فيلزم صابحه حتى يقذفه فى النار . . .وقوله : ( تَجْرِي مِن تَحْتِهِمُ الأنهار فى جَنَّاتِ النعيم ) أى : تجري من تحت منازلهم أو مقاعدهم الأنهار ، وهم آمنون مطمئنون فى الجنات ، يتنعمون فيها بما لا عين رأت ولا أذن سمعت . ولا خطر على قلب بشر .
القول في تأويل قوله تعالى : إِنَّ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ يَهْدِيهِمْ رَبُّهُمْ بِإِيمَانِهِمْ تَجْرِي مِنْ تَحْتِهِمُ الأَنْهَارُ فِي جَنَّاتِ النَّعِيمِ (9)قال أبو جعفر: يقول تعالى ذكره: (إن الذين آمنوا وعملوا الصالحات) ، إن الذين صدَّقوا الله ورسوله ، (وعملوا الصالحات)، وذلك العمل بطاعة الله والانتهاء إلى أمره (7) ، (يهديهم ربهم بإيمانهم) ، يقول: يرشدهم ربهم بإيمانهم به إلى الجنة، كما:-17558- حدثنا بشر قال ، حدثنا يزيد قال ، حدثنا سعيد، عن قتادة قوله: (إن الذين آمنوا وعملوا الصالحات يهديهم ربهم بإيمانهم تجري من تحتهم الأنهار في جنات النعيم) بلغنا أن نبيَّ الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: إن المؤمن إذا خرج من قبره صُوِّر له عمله في صورة حَسَنة فيقول له: ما أنت؟ فوالله إني لأراك امرأ صِدْقٍ! فيقول: أنا عملك! فيكون له نورًا وقائدًا إلى الجنة. وأما الكافر إذا خرج من قبره صُوِّر له عمله في صورة سيئة وشارة سيئة (8) فيقول: ما أنت ؟ فوالله إني لأراك امرأ سَوْء! فيقول: أنا عملك! فينطلق به حتى يدخله النار.17559- حدثني محمد بن عمرو قال ، حدثنا أبو عاصم قال ، حدثنا عيسى، عن ابن أبي نجيح، عن مجاهد في قول الله: (يهديهم ربهم بإيمانهم) ، قال: يكون لهم نورًا يمشون به.17560- حدثني المثنى قال ، حدثنا أبو حذيفة قال ، حدثنا شبل، عن ابن أبي نجيح. عن مجاهد، مثله.17561- . . . . قال، حدثنا إسحاق قال ، حدثنا ابن أبي جعفر، عن ورقاء، عن ابن أبي نجيح، عن مجاهد، مثله.17562- حدثنا القاسم قال ، حدثنا الحسين قال ، حدثني حجاج، عن ابن جريج، عن مجاهد، مثله ، وقال ابن جريج: (يهديهم ربهم بإيمانهم) ، قال: يَمْثُل له عمله في صورة حسنة وريحٍ طيبة، يعارِض صاحبه ويبشره بكل خير، فيقول له: من أنت؟ فيقول: أنا عملك! فيجعل له نورًا من بين يديه حتى يدخله الجنة، فذلك قوله: (يهديهم ربهم بإيمانهم). والكافر يَمْثل له عمله في صورة سيئة وريح منتنة، فيلازم صاحبه ويُلازُّهُ حتى يقذفه في النار. (9)* * *وقال آخرون: معنى ذلك: بإيمانهم ، يهديهم ربهم لدينه. يقول: بتصديقهم هَدَاهم.* ذكر من قال ذلك:. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

(11)* * *فإن قال قائل: وكيف قيل : ( تجري من تحتهم الأنهار) ، وإنما وصف جل ثناؤه أنهار الجنة في سائر القرآن أنها تجري تحت الجنات؟ وكيف يمكن الأنهار أن تجري من تحتهم ، إلا أن يكونوا فوق أرضها والأنهار تجري من تحت أرضها؟ وليس ذلك من صفة أنهار الجنة، لأن صفتها أنها تجري على وجه الأرض في غير أخاديد؟قيل: إن معنى ذلك بخلاف ما إليه ذهبتَ، وإنما معنى ذلك: تجري من دونهم الأنهار إلى ما بين أيديهم في بساتين النعيم، وذلك نظير قول الله: قَدْ جَعَلَ رَبُّكِ تَحْتَكِ سَرِيًّا [سورة مريم: 24]. ومعلوم أنه لم يجعل " السري" تحتها وهي عليه قاعدة ، إذ كان " السري" هو الجدول ، وإنما عني به : جعل دونها: بين يديها، وكما قال جل ثناؤه مخبرًا عن قيل فرعون، أَلَيْسَ لِي مُلْكُ مِصْرَ وَهَذِهِ الأَنْهَارُ تَجْرِي مِنْ تَحْتِي ، [سورة الزخرف: 51] ، بمعنى: من دوني، بين يديّ.-------------------الهوامش :(7) انظر تفسير " الصالحات " فيما سلف من فهارس اللغة ( صلح ) .(8) في المطبوعة : " وبشارة " ، والصواب ما أثبته من المخطوطة .(9) في المطبوعة : " ويلاده" ؛ بالدال ، وأثبت في المخطوطة.

قوله تعالى : ( إن الذين آمنوا وعملوا الصالحات يهديهم ربهم بإيمانهم ) فيه إضمار ، أي : يرشدهم ربهم بإيمانهم إلى جنة ، ( تجري من تحتهم الأنهار ) قال مجاهد : يهديهم على الصراط إلى الجنة ، يجعل لهم نورا يمشون به .وقيل : " يهديهم " معناه يثيبهم ويجزيهم .وقيل : معناه بإيمانهم يهديهم ربهم لدينه ، أي : بتصديقهم هداهم " تجري من تحتهم الأنهار " أي : بين أيديهم ، كقوله عز وجل : " قد جعل ربك تحتك سريا " ( مريم - 24 ) لم يرد به أنه تحتها وهي قاعدة عليه ، بل أراد بين يديها .وقيل : تجري من تحتهم أي : بأمرهم ، ( في جنات النعيم ) .
جاءت هذه الجملة مستأنفة استئنافاً بيانياً لتكون أحوال المؤمنين مستقلة بالذكر غير تابعة في اللفظ لأحوال الكافرين ، وهذا من طرق الاهتمام بالخبر . ومناسبة ذكرها مقابلة أحوال الذين يكذبون بلقاء الله بأضدادها تنويهاً بأهلها وإغاضة للكافرين .وتعريف المسند إليه بالموصولية هنا دون اللام للإيماء بالموصول إلى علة بناء الخبر وهي أن إيمانهم وعملهم هو سبب حصول مضمون الخبر لهم .والهداية : الإرشاد على المقصد النافع والدلالة عليه . فمعنى { يهديهم ربهم } يرشدهم إلى ما فيه خيرهم . والمقصود الإرشاد التكويني ، أي يخلق في نفوسهم المعرفة بالأعمال النافعة وتسهيل الإكثار منها . وأما الإرشاد الذي هو الدلالة بالقول والتعليم فالله يخاطب به المؤمنين والكافرين .والباء في { بإيمانهم } للسببية ، بحيث إن الإيمان يكون سبباً في مضمون الخبر وهو الهداية فتكون الباء لتأكيد السببية المستفادة من التعريف بالموصولية نظير قوله : { إن الذين لا يرجون لقاءنا إلى بما كانوا يكسبون } [ يونس : 7 ، 8 ] في تكوين هدايتهم إلى الخيرات بجعل الله تعالى ، بأن يجعل الله للإيمان نُوراً يوضع في عقل المؤمن ولذلك النور أشعة نورانية تتصل بين نفس المؤمن وبين عوالم القدس فتكون سبباً مغناطيسياً لانفعال النفس بالتوجه إلى الخير والكماللِ لا يزال يزداد يوماً فيوماً ، ولذلك يقترب من الإدراك الصحيح المحفوظ من الضلال بمقدار مراتب الإيمان والعمل الصالح . وفي الحديث : « قد يكون في الأمم محدَّثون فإن يك في أمتي أحدٌ فعمر بن الخطاب » قال ابن وهب : تفسير محدَّثون ملهمون الصواب ، وفي الحديث : « اتقوا فراسة المؤمن فإنه يَنظر بنور الله » ولأجل هذا النور كان أصحاب النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم أكمل الناس إيماناً لأنهم لما تلقوا الإيمان عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم كانت أنواره السارية في نفوسهم أقوى وأوسع .وفي العدول عن اسم الجلالة العَلَم إلى وصف الربوبية مضافاً إلى ضمير { الذين آمنوا } تنويه بشأن المؤمنين وشأن هدايتهم بأنها جعل مولًى لأوليائه فشأنها أن تكون عطية كاملة مشوبة برحمة وكرامة .والإتيان بالمضارع للدلالة على أن هذه الهداية لا تزال متكررة متجددة . وفي هذه الجملة ذكر تهيؤ نفوسهم في الدنيا لعُروج مراتب الكمال .وجملة : { تجري من تحتها الأنهار في جنات النعيم } خبر ثان لِذكر ما يحصل لهم من النعيم في الآخرة بسبب هدايتهم الحاصلة لهم في الدنيا . وتقدم القول في نظير { تجري من تحتها الأنهار } في سورة [ البقرة : 25 ]. والمراد من تحت منازلهم . والجنات تقدم . والنعيم تقدم في قوله تعالى : { لهم فيها نعيم مقيم } في سورة [ براءة : 21 ].
فلما ذكر عقابهم ذكر ثواب المطيعين فقال :ـيقول تعالى {إِنَّ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ} أي: جمعوا بين الإيمان، والقيام بموجبه ومقتضاه من الأعمال الصالحة، المشتملة على أعمال القلوب وأعمال الجوارح، على وجه الإخلاص والمتابعة. {يَهْدِيهِمْ رَبُّهُمْ بِإِيمَانِهِمْ} أي: بسبب ما معهم من الإيمان، يثيبهم الله أعظم الثواب، وهو الهداية، فيعلمهم ما ينفعهم، ويمن عليهم بالأعمال الناشئة عن الهداية، ويهديهم للنظر في آياته، ويهديهم في هذه الدار إلى الصراط المستقيم وفي الصراط المستقيم، وفي دار الجزاء إلى الصراط الموصل إلى جنات النعيم،. ولهذا قال: {تَجْرِي مِنْ تَحْتِهِمُ الْأَنْهَارُ} الجارية على الدوام {فِي جَنَّاتِ النَّعِيمِ} أضافها الله إلى النعيم، لاشتمالها على النعيم التام، نعيم القلب بالفرح والسرور، والبهجة والحبور، ورؤية الرحمن وسماع كلامه، والاغتباط برضاه وقربه، ولقاء الأحبة والإخوان، والتمتع بالاجتماع بهم، وسماع الأصوات المطربات، والنغمات المشجيات، والمناظر المفرحات. ونعيم البدن بأنواع المآكل والمشارب، والمناكح ونحو ذلك، مما لا تعلمه النفوس، ولا خطر ببال أحد، أو قدر أن يصفه الواصفون.
قوله تعالى إن الذين آمنوا وعملوا الصالحات يهديهم ربهم بإيمانهم تجري من تحتهم الأنهار في جنات النعيمقوله تعالى إن الذين آمنوا أي صدقوا .وعملوا الصالحات يهديهم ربهم بإيمانهم أي يزيدهم هداية ; كقوله : والذين اهتدوا زادهم هدى . وقيل : يهديهم ربهم بإيمانهم إلى مكان تجري من تحتهم الأنهار . وقال أبو روق : يهديهم ربهم بإيمانهم إلى الجنة . وقال عطية : يهديهم يثيبهم ويجزيهم . وقال مجاهد : يهديهم ربهم بالنور على الصراط إلى الجنة ، يجعل لهم نورا يمشون به . ويروى عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ما يقوي هذا أنه قال : يتلقى المؤمن عمله في أحسن صورة فيؤنسه ويهديه ويتلقى الكافر عمله في أقبح صورة فيوحشه ويضله . هذا معنى الحديث . وقال ابن جريج : يجعل عملهم هاديا لهم . الحسن : يهديهم يرحمهم .[ ص: 228 ] قوله تعالى تجري من تحتهم الأنهار قيل : في الكلام واو محذوفة ، أي وتجري من تحتهم ، أي من تحت بساتينهم . وقيل : من تحت أسرتهم ; وهذا أحسن في النزهة والفرجة .
Literally, ‘On account of their faith, God will lead them towards the goal of Paradise.’ This shows that Faith is guidance for man; it prevents him from taking wrong paths and makes him tread the right way until it leads him to the real goal. Faith is discovery of God. The thread of knowledge comes within the grasp of one who is blessed with faith. He becomes capable of starting his thinking from the right place on all matters. Never allowing his thoughts to err, he attains correctness in his thinking. Furthermore, belief in God is not simply acceptance of a bookish philosophy; it is belief in God Who is alive and Who is going to finally assemble all human beings before Him to take a final reckoning. In this way, Faith inculcates in man a sense of anxiety or apprehension about his future fate and this makes him extremely serious. He is forced to look at all his actions in the light of their being right or wrong, so that he may adopt only the right direction. In this way, Faith provides man with the right way of thinking as well as the power to distinguish between right and wrong, which acts as his permanent practical guide. The Paradise of the Hereafter is for those who have, in this world, proved themselves to be deserving of it. The Hereafter is a place where one will directly experience and become directly immersed in the glories of God. So, the opportunity to live in Paradise will be given only to those who, in this world, had immersed themselves in the indirect manifestations of the glories of God. In the Hereafter, human hearts will be full of well-wishing and peace-desiring for each other. So, only those who, in this world had proved that in their hearts they had only such feelings for others, will find their abode in Paradise.
Mentioned in the third verse (9) are those fortunate people who pondered over the signs of the most exalted Allah. Thereby, they recognized Him, believed in Him and, by acting in accordance with the dictates of their faith, became duty-bound to say and do what was good and right (al-a` mal as-salihah: good deeds).
The good return and reward made due by the Holy Qur'an for these wonderful people has been mentioned in a particular manner. It was said: يَهْدِيهِمْ رَبُّهُم بِإِيمَانِهِمْ (their Lord will guide them by virtue of their belief), that is, ` take them to their destination, the Jannah [ Paradise ], where rivers shall be flowing in the Gardens of Bliss.'
The well known meaning of the word: ھِدَیَہ (hidayah) used here is to tell or show the way. Then, on occasions, it is also used in the sense of taking someone all the way to the desired destination. At this place, this is the meaning intended. As for the desired destination, it means Jannah that stands clarified by the words appearing later.
It will be recalled that the punishment of the first group was the outcome of their own misdeeds. Here, similar to that, it was said about the reward of the second group (of believers), that they have been blessed with this reward by virtue of their belief. And since, belief has been bracketed with good deeds earlier, therefore, 'Iman or belief mentioned at this place will mean belief that is supported by good deeds (al-a` mal as-salilhah). The return for belief and good deeds is Jannah, the place of unimaginable and unparalleled bliss.
(Lo! those who believe) in Muhammad, Allah, bless him and give him peace, and in the Qur'an (and do good works) they do works of obedience, in that which is between them and their Lord, (their Lord guideth them) makes them enter Paradise (by their faith. Rivers) of wine, water, honey and milk (will flow beneath them) beneath their trees and habitations (in the Gardens of Delight),
