The Morning Hours, The Early Hours, Morning Bright — Verse 5

And verily your Lord shall give you in the Hereafter of good things a bounteous gift and you shall be satisfied with it — and so the Prophet s said ‘In that case I shall not be satisfied if a single person from among my community remains in the Fire’ the response to the oath terminates here with two affirmations and two negations.

ولَلدَّار الآخرة خير لك من دار الدنيا، ولسوف يعطيك ربك -أيها النبي- مِن أنواع الإنعام في الآخرة، فترضى بذلك.

وقوله تعالى "ولسوف يعطيك ربك فترضى" أي في الدار الآخرة يعطيه حتى يرضيه في أمته وفيما أعده له من الكرامة ومن جملته نهر الكوثر الذي حافتاه قباب اللؤلؤ المجوف وطينه مسك أذفر كما سيأتي. وقال الإمام أبو عمر الأوزاعي عن إسماعيل بن عبدالله بن أبي المهاجر المخزومي عن علي بن عبدالله بن عباس عن أبيه قال: عرض على رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ما هو مفتوح على أمته من بعده كنزا كنزا سر بذلك فأنزل الله "ولسوف يعطيك ربك فترضى" فأعطاه في الجنة ألف ألف قصر في كل قصر ما ينبغي له من الأزواج والخدم رواه ابن جرير وابن أبي حاتم من طريقه وهذا إسناد صحيح إلى ابن عباس ومثل هذا ما يقال إلا عن توقيف وقال السدي عن ابن عباس من رضاء محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم أن لا يدخل أحد من أهل بيته النار رواه ابن جرير وابن أبي حاتم وقال الحسن يعني بذلك الشفاعة وهكذا قال أبو جعفر الباقر وقال أبو بكر بن أبي شيبة حدثنا معاوية بن هشام عن علي بن صالح عن يزيد بن أبي زياد عن إبراهيم عن علقمة عن عبدالله قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم "إنا أهل بيت اختار الله لنا الآخرة على الدنيا ولسوف يعطيك ربك فترضى".

وجئ بحرف الاستقبال فى قوله - تعالى - : ( وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فترضى ) ، لإفادة أن هذا العطاء مستمر غير مقطوع ، كما فى قوله - تعالى - : ( وَلَسَوْفَ يرضى ) وحذف المفعول الثانى فى قوله : ( يُعْطِيكَ ) ، ليعم كل وجوه العطاء التى يحبها صلى الله عليه وسلم أى : ولسوف يعطيك ربك عطاء يرضيك رضاء تاما .والتعبير بقوله ( فترضى ) ، ليعم كل وجوه العطاء التى يحبها الله صلى الله عليه وسلم أى : ولسوف يعطيك ربك عطاء يرضيك رضاء تاما .والتعبير بقوله ( فترضى ) المشتمل على فاء التعقيب ، للإِشعار بأنه عطاء عاجل النفع ، وأنه سيأتى إليه صلى الله عليه وسلم فى وقت قريب ، وقد أنجز - سبحانه - وعده .قال الجمل : وقوله - سبحانه - : ( وَلَلآخِرَةُ ) اللام فيه للابتداء مؤكدة لمضمون الجملة . وإنما قيد بقوله - تعالى - ( لك ) لأنها ليست خيرا لكل واحد . وقوله : ( وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ . . . ) هذا وعد شامل لما أعطاه الله - تعالى - له من كمال النفس ، وظهور الأمر ، وإعلاء الدين . . واللام لام الابتداء ، والمبتدأ محذوف ، أى : ولأنت سوف يعطيك ربك ، وليست لام القسم ، لأنها لا تدخل على المضارع ، إلا مع نون التوكيد . .

وقوله: ( وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَى ) يقول تعالى ذكره: ولسوف يعطيك يا محمد ربك في الآخرة من فواضل نعمه، حتى ترضى.وقد اختلف أهل العلم في الذي وعده من العطاء، فقال بعضهم: هو ماحدثني به موسى بن سهل الرملي، قال: ثنا عمرو بن هاشم، قال: سمعت الأوزاعيّ يحدّث، عن إسماعيل بن عبيد الله بن أبي المهاجر المخزومي، عن عليّ بن عبد الله بن عباس، عن أبيه، قال: عرض على رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ما هو مفتوح على أمته من بعده كَفْرا كَفْرا، فسرّ بذلك، فأنـزل الله ( وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَى ) فأعطاه في الجنة ألف قصر، في كلّ قصر، ما ينبغي من الأزواج والخدم .حدثني محمد بن خلف العسقلاني، قال: ثني روّاد بن الجراح، عن الأوزاعيّ، عن إسماعيل بن عبيد الله، عن عليّ بن عبد الله بن عباس، في قوله: ( وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَى ) قال: ألف قصر من لؤلؤ، ترابهنّ المسك، وفيهنّ ما يصلحهنّ.حدثنا بشر، قال: ثنا يزيد، قال: ثنا سعيد، عن قتادة ( وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَى ) ، وذلك يوم القيامة.وقال آخرون في ذلك ما حدثني به عباد بن يعقوب، قال: ثنا الحكم بن ظهير، عن السديّ، عن ابن عباس، في قوله: ( وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَى ) قال: من رضا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم ألا يدخل أحد من أهل بيته النار.

( ولسوف يعطيك ربك فترضى ) قال عطاء عن ابن عباس : هو الشفاعة في أمته حتى يرضى ، وهو قول علي والحسن .وروينا عن عبد الله بن عمرو بن العاص أن النبي - صلى الله عليه وسلم - قال : " اللهم أمتي أمتي وبكى ، فقال الله : يا جبريل اذهب إلى محمد فقل له إنا سنرضيك في أمتك ، ولا نسوءك فيهم " .وقال حرب بن شريح سمعت أبا جعفر محمد بن علي يقول : إنكم يا معشر أهل العراق تقولون : أرجى آية في القرآن : " قل ياعبادي الذين أسرفوا على أنفسهم لا تقنطوا من رحمة الله " ، وإنا أهل البيت نقول : أرجى آية في كتاب الله " ولسوف يعطيك ربك فترضى " من الثواب . وقيل : من النصر والتمكين وكثرة المؤمنين ، ( فترضى )

وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَى (5)هو كذلك عطف على جملة القسم كلها وحرف الاستقبال لإفادة أن هذا العطاء الموعود به مستمر لا ينقطع كما تقدم في قوله تعالى : { قال سوف أستغفر لكم ربي } في سورة يوسف ( 98 ) وقوله : { ولسوف يرضى } في سورة الليل ( 21 ) .وحذف المفعول الثاني ليعطيك } ليعمّ كل ما يرجوه صلى الله عليه وسلم من خير لنفسه ولأمته فكان مفاد هذه الجملة تعميم العطاء كما أفادت الجملة قبلها تعميم الأزمنة .وجيء بفاء التعقيب في { فترضى } لإفادة كون العطاءِ عاجلَ النفع بحيث يحصل به رضى المعطَى عند العطاء فَلا يترقب أن يحصل نفعه بعد تَربص .وتعريف { ربك } بالإضافة دون اسم الله العَلَم لما يؤذن به لفظ ( رب ) من الرأفة واللطف ، وللتوسل إلى إضافته إلى ضمير المخاطب لما في ذلك من الإِشعار بعنايته برسوله وتشريفه بإضافة رَب إلى ضميره .وهو وعد واسع الشمول لما أعطيه النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم من النصر والظَفر بأعدائه يوم بدر ويوم فتح مكة ، ودخول الناس في الدين أفواجاً وما فُتح على الخلفاء الراشدين ومَن بعدهم من أقطار الأرض شرقاً وغرباً .واعلم أن اللام في { وللآخرة خير } [ الضحى : 4 ] وفي { ولسوف يعطيك } جزَم صاحب «الكشاف» بأنه لام الابتداء وقدر مبتدأ محذوفاً . والتقدير : ولأنت سوف يعطيك ربك . وقال : إن لام القسم لا تدخل على المضارع إلا مع نون التوكيد وحيث تعين أن اللام لام الابتداء ولام الابتداء لا تدخل إلا على جملة من مبتدأ وخبر تعين تقدير المبتدأ . واختار ابن الحاجب أن اللام في { ولسوف يعطيك ربك } لام التوكيد ( يعني لام جواب القسم ) . ووافقه ابن هشام في «مغني اللبيب» وأشعر كلامه أن وجود حرف التنفيس مانع من لحاق نون التَوكيد ولذلك تجب اللام في الجملة . وأقول في كون وجود حرف التنفيس يوجب كون اللاّم لام جواب قسم محلّ نظر .

ثم بعد ذلك، لا تسأل عن حاله في الآخرة، من تفاصيل الإكرام، وأنواع الإنعام، ولهذا قال: { وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَى } وهذا أمر لا يمكن التعبير عنه بغير هذه العبارة الجامعة الشاملة. ثم امتن عليه بما يعلمه من أحواله [الخاصة] فقال:

قال ابن إسحاق : الفلج في الدنيا ، والثواب في الآخرة . وقيل : الحوض والشفاعة . وعن ابن عباس : ألف قصر من لؤلؤ أبيض ترابه المسك . رفعه الأوزاعي ، قال : حدثني إسماعيل بن عبيد الله ، عن علي بن عبد الله بن عباس ، عن أبيه قال : أري النبي - صلى الله عليه وسلم - ما هو مفتوح على أمته ، فسر بذلك فأنزل الله - عز وجل - ( والضحى - إلى قوله تعالى - ولسوف يعطيك ربك فترضى ) ، فأعطاه الله - جل ثناؤه - ألف قصر في الجنة ، ترابها المسك في كل قصر ما ينبغي له من الأزواج والخدم . وعنه قال : - رضي محمد ألا يدخل أحد من أهل بيته النار . وقال السدي . وقيل : هي الشفاعة في جميع المؤمنين . وعن علي - رضي الله عنه - قال : قال رسول الله - صلى الله عليه وسلم - : يشفعني الله في أمتي حتى يقول الله سبحانه لي : رضيت يا محمد ؟ فأقول يا رب رضيت .وفي صحيح مسلم عن ، عبد الله بن عمرو بن العاص أن النبي - صلى الله عليه وسلم - تلا قول الله تعالى في إبراهيم : فمن تبعني فإنه مني ومن عصاني فإنك غفور رحيم وقول عيسى : إن تعذبهم فإنهم عبادك ، فرفع يديه وقال : " اللهم أمتي [ ص: 85 ] أمتي " وبكى . فقال الله تعالى لجبريل : ( اذهب إلى محمد ، وربك أعلم ، فسله ما يبكيك ) فأتى جبريل النبي - صلى الله عليه وسلم - فسأل فأخبره . فقال الله تعالى لجبريل : ( اذهب إلى محمد ، فقل له : إن الله يقول لك : إنا سنرضيك في أمتك ولا نسوءك ) .وقال علي - رضي الله عنه - لأهل العراق : إنكم تقولون إن أرجى آية في كتاب الله تعالى : قل يا عبادي الذين أسرفوا على أنفسهم لا تقنطوا من رحمة الله قالوا : إنا نقول ذلك . قال : ولكنا أهل البيت نقول : إن أرجى آية في كتاب الله قوله تعالى : ولسوف يعطيك ربك فترضى . وفي الحديث : لما نزلت هذه الآية قال النبي - صلى الله عليه وسلم - : " إذا والله لا أرضى وواحد من أمتي في النار " .

The Prophet Muhammad was born an orphan. Then God provided him with the best of guardians. He went eagerly in search of the Truth. Then God opened the door of Truth for him. He was apparently without wealth. Then God made him prosperous through his wife, Khadijah. These are historical examples which show how Almighty God helps His subjects.

وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَ‌بُّكَ فَتَرْ‌ضَىٰ (And of course, your Lord will give you so much that you will be pleased....93:5). Allah does not specify here what he will give him. The statement is open and general. The Holy Prophet ﷺ will be granted everything he desires so much that he will be pleased. Among his desired thing is the progress of Islam; the general spread of Islam in the world; fulfillment of every need of the Ummah; triumph of the Holy Prophet himself over his enemies and raising the word of Allah in the land of the enemy. When this verse was revealed, the Holy Prophet ﷺ said: اِذا ! لّا اَرضٰی وَ وَاحدُ مِّن اُمَّتِی فِی النَّار 'If that is the case, then I will not be pleased as long as one [ single member ] of my Ummah [ remains ] in Fire.' [ Qurtubi ]. In a narration by Sayyidna ` Ali ؓ ، the Holy Prophet ﷺ said: "Allah will accept my intercession for my Ummah [ community ]. Allah will ask: رضیتَ یا محمد '0 Muhammad, are you pleased?' He will reply: یا رَبِّ رَضِیتُ "My Lord, I am pleased." Muslim records from Sayyidna ` Amr Ibn-ul-` As to the effect that the Holy Prophet ﷺ recited a verse concerning the Prophet Ibrahim : (علیہ السلام) فَمَن تَبِعَنِي فَإِنَّهُ مِنِّي وَمَنْ عَصَانِي فَإِنَّكَ غَفُورٌ‌ رَّ‌حِيمٌ '...So, one who followsme is surely mine, and the one who disobeys me, then You are Most Forgiving, Very Merciful. [ 14:36] ' Then he recited a verse which contains the words of Sayyidna ` Isa (علیہ السلام) إِن تُعَذِّبْهُمْ فَإِنَّهُمْ عِبَادُكَ 'If You punish them, then, they are Your slaves [ 5:118] ' Then he raised his hands, he wept and prayed: اَللّٰھُمَّ اُمَّتِی اُمَّتِی '0 Allah, my ummah, my ummah!' Allah sent Jibra'il علیہ السلام to inquire as to why he was weeping [ while Allah knows the reason ]. Jibra'il Amin علیہ السلام came and inquired why he was weeping. The Holy Prophet ﷺ replied: "I seek my ummah's forgiveness." Allah sent Jibra'il (علیہ السلام) back to inform him that He has pardoned them, and that Allah would please him and would not displease him regarding his ummah.

(And verily thy Lord will give unto thee) in the Hereafter of intercession (so that thou wilt be content) until you are content.

Which was revealed in Makkah بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَـنِ الرَّحِيمِ (In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. The Reason for the Revelation of Surat Ad-Duha Imam Ahmad recorded from Jundub that he said, "The Prophet became ill, so he did not stand for prayer for a night or two. Then a woman came and said, `O Muhammad! I think that your devil has finally left you.' So Allah revealed, وَالضُّحَى - وَالَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَى - مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَى (By the forenoon. By the night when it darkens. Your Lord has neither forsaken you nor hates you.)" Al-Bukhari, Muslim, At-Tirmidhi, An-Nasa'i, Ibn Abi Hatim and Ibn Jarir, all recorded this Hadith. This Jundub (who narrated it) is Ibn `Abdullah Al-Bajali Al-`Alaqi. In a narration from Al-Aswad bin Qays, he said that he heard Jundub say that Jibril was slow in coming to the Messenger of Allah . So the idolators said, "Muhammad's Lord has abandoned him." So Allah revealed, وَالضُّحَى - وَالَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَى - مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَى (By the forenoon. By the night when it darkens. Your Lord has neither forsaken you nor hates you.) وَالضُّحَى - وَالَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَى (By the forenoon. By the night when it darkens.) Al-`Awfi reported from Ibn `Abbas, "When the Qur'an was revealed to the Messenger of Allah , Jibril was delayed from coming to him for a number of days (on one occasion). Therefore, the Messenger of Allah was affected by this. Then the idolators began to say, `His Lord has abandoned him and hates him.' So Allah revealed, مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَى (Your Lord has neither forsaken you nor hates you.)" In this, Allah is swearing by the forenoon and the light that He has placed in it. وَالَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَى (By the night when it darkens (Saja).) meaning, it settles, darkens meaning, it settles, darkens and overcomes them. This was said by Mujahid, Qatadah, Ad-Dahhak, Ibn Zayd and others. This is a clear proof of the power of the Creator of this (light) and that (darkness). This is as Allah says, وَالَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَى - وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّى (By the night as it envelops. By the Day as it appears.) (92:1-2) Allah also says, فَالِقُ الإِصْبَاحِ وَجَعَلَ الَّيْلَ سَكَناً وَالشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ حُسْبَاناً ذَلِكَ تَقْدِيرُ الْعَزِيزِ الْعَلِيمِ ((He is the) Cleaver of the daybreak. He has appointed the night for resting, and the sun and the moon for reckoning. Such is the measuring of the Almighty, the All-Knowing.) (6:96) Allah then says, مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ (Your Lord has neither forsaken you) meaning, `He has not abandoned you.' وَمَا قَلَى (nor hates (Qala) you.) meaning, `He does not hate you.' The Hereafter is Better Than This First Life وَلَلاٌّخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ لَّكَ مِنَ الاٍّولَى (And indeed the Hereafter is better for you than the present.) meaning, the abode of the Hereafter is better for you than this current abode. For this reason the Messenger of Allah used to be the most abstinent of the people concerning the worldly things, and he was the greatest of them in his disregard for worldly matters. This is well known by necessity from his biography. When the Prophet was given the choice at the end of his life between remaining in this life forever and then going to Paradise, or moving on to the company of Allah, he chose that which is with Allah over this lowly world. Imam Ahmad recorded that `Abdullah bin Mas`ud said, "The Messenger of Allah was lying down on a straw mat and it left marks on his side. Then when he woke up he began to rub his side. So I said, `O Messenger of Allah! Will you allow us to spread something soft over this straw mat' He replied, «مَالِي وَلِلدُّنْيَا، إِنَّمَا مَثَلِي وَمَثَلُ الدُّنْيَا كَرَاكِبٍ ظَلَّ تَحْتَ شَجَرَةٍ ثُمَّ رَاحَ وَتَرَكَهَا» (I have nothing to do with this world. The parable of me and this world is like a rider who rests in the shade of a tree, then he passes on and leaves it.)" At-Tirmidhi and Ibn Majah both recorded this Hadith by way of Al-Mas`udi. At-Tirmidhi said, "Hasan Sahih." The Numerous Bounties of the Hereafter are waiting for the Messenger of Allah Then Allah says, وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَى (And verily, your Lord will give you so that you shall be well-pleased.) meaning, in the final abode Allah will give him until He pleases him concerning his followers, and in that which He has prepared for him from His generosity. From this will be the River of Al-Kawthar, which will have domes of hollowed pearls on its banks, and the mud on its banks will be the strongest frangrance of musk, as will be mentioned. Imam Abu `Amr Al-Awza`i recorded that Ibn `Abbas said, "The Messenger of Allah was shown that which his Ummah would be blessed with after him, treasure upon treasure. So he was pleased with that. Then Allah revealed, وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَى (And verily, your Lord will give you so that you shall be well-pleased.) So, Allah will give him in Paradise one million palaces, and each palace will contain whatever he wishes of wives and servants." This was recorded by Ibn Jarir and Ibn Abi Hatim from his route of transmission. This chain of narration is authentic to Ibn `Abbas, and statements like this can only be said from that which is Tawqif. The Numerous Bounties of the Hereafter are waiting for the Messenger of Allah Then Allah says, وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَى (And verily, your Lord will give you so that you shall be well-pleased.) meaning, in the final abode Allah will give him until He pleases him concerning his followers, and in that which He has prepared for him from His generosity. From this will be the River of Al-Kawthar, which will have domes of hollowed pearls on its banks, and the mud on its banks will be the strongest frangrance of musk, as will be mentioned. Imam Abu `Amr Al-Awza`i recorded that Ibn `Abbas said, "The Messenger of Allah was shown that which his Ummah would be blessed with after him, treasure upon treasure. So he was pleased with that. Then Allah revealed, وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَى (And verily, your Lord will give you so that you shall be well-pleased.) So, Allah will give him in Paradise one million palaces, and each palace will contain whatever he wishes of wives and servants." This was recorded by Ibn Jarir and Ibn Abi Hatim from his route of transmission. This chain of narration is authentic to Ibn `Abbas, and statements like this can only be said from that which is Tawqif. A Mention of some of Allah's Favors upon the Messenger Enumerating His favors upon His Messenger Allah says; أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيماً فَآوَى (Did He not find you an orphan and gave you a refuge) This refers to the fact that his father died while his mother was still pregnant with him, and his mother, Aminah bint Wahb died when he was only six years old. After this he was under the guardianship of his grandfather, `Abdul-Muttalib, until he died when Muhammad was eight years old. Then his uncle, Abu Talib took responsibility for him and continued to protect him, assist him, elavate his status, honor him, and even restrain his people from harming him when he was forty years of age and Allah commissioned him with the prophethood. Even with this, Abu Talib continued to follow the religion of his people, worshipping idols. All of this took place by the divine decree of Allah and His decree is most excellent. Until Abu Talib died a short time before the Hijrah. After this (Abu Talib's death) the foolish and ignorant people of the Quraysh began to attack him, so Allah chose for him to migrate away from them to the city of Al-Aws and Al-Khazraj among those who helped him (in Al-Madinah). Allah caused his Sunnah to be spread in the most perfect and complete manner. Then, when he arrived at their city, they gave him shelter, supported him, defended him and fought before him (against the enemies of Islam) -- may Allah be pleased with all of them. All of this was from Allah's protection for him, guarding over him and caring for him. Then Allah says, وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلاًّ فَهَدَى (He found you unaware and guided you) This is similar to Allah's saying, وَكَذَلِكَ أَوْحَيْنَآ إِلَيْكَ رُوحاً مِّنْ أَمْرِنَا مَا كُنتَ تَدْرِى مَا الْكِتَـبُ وَلاَ الإِيمَـنُ وَلَـكِن جَعَلْنَـهُ نُوراً نَّهْدِى بِهِ مَن نَّشَآءُ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا (And thus We have sent to you a Ruh from Our command. you knew not what is the Book, nor what is Faith. But We have made it a light wherewith We guide whosoever of our servants We will...) (42:52) Allah says, وَوَجَدَكَ عَآئِلاً فَأَغْنَى (And He found you poor and made you rich) meaning, `you were poor having dependents, so Allah made you wealthy and independent of all others besides Him.' Thus, Allah combined for him the two positions: the one who is poor and patient, and the one who is wealthy and thankful. In the Two Sahihs it has been recorded from Abu Hurayrah that the Messenger of Allah said, «لَيْسَ الْغِنَى عَنْ كَثْرَةِ الْعَرَضِ، وَلَكِنَّ الْغِنَى غِنَى النَّفْس» (Wealth is not determined by abundance of possessions, but wealth is the richness of the soul.) In Sahih Muslim, it is recorded from `Abdullah bin `Amr that the Messenger of Allah said, «قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَنْ أَسْلَمَ وَرُزِقَ كَفَافًا وَقَنَّعَهُ اللهُ بِمَا آتَاه» (Whoever accepts Islam, is provided with his basic needs, and Allah makes him content with what He has given him, then he will be successful.) How should this Bounty be responded to Then Allah says, فَأَمَّا الْيَتِيمَ فَلاَ تَقْهَرْ (Therefore, treat not the orphan with oppression.) meaning, `just as you were an orphan and Allah sheltered you, then do not oppress the orphan.' In other words, `do not humiliate him, scorn him or despise him. Rather, you should be kind and gentle to him.' Qatadah said, "Be like a merciful father to the orphan." وَأَمَّا السَّآئِلَ فَلاَ تَنْهَرْ (And repulse not the one who asks.) meaning, `just as you were astray and Allah guided you, then do not scorn the one who asks for knowledge seeking to be guided.' Ibn Ishaq said, وَأَمَّا السَّآئِلَ فَلاَ تَنْهَرْ (And repulse not the one who asks.) "This means do not be oppressive, arrogant, wicked, or mean to the weak among Allah's servants." Qatadah said, "This means respond to the poor with mercy and gentleness." وَأَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثْ (And procalim the grace of your Lord.) meaning, `just as you were poor and needy, and Allah made you wealthy, then tell about Allah's favor upon you.' Abu Dawud recorded from Abu Hurayrah that the Prophet said, «لَا يَشْكُرُ اللهَ مَنْ لَا يَشْكُرُ النَّاس» (Whoever is not thankful to the people, then he is not thankful to Allah.) At-Tirmidhi also recorded this Hadith and he said, "Sahih". Abu Dawud recorded from Jabir that the Prophet said, «مَنْ أُبْلِيَ بَلَاءً فَذَكَرَهُ فَقَدْ شَكَرَهُ، وَمَنْ كَتَمَهُ فَقَدْ كَفَرَه» (Whoever overcomes some test (i.e., calamity) and mentions it (to others), then he is indeed thankful. And whoever conceals it, then indeed he was ungrateful.) Abu Dawud was alone in recording this Hadith. This is the end of the Tafsir of Surat Ad-Duha, and unto Allah is due all praise and thanks.
