مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ
Abdel Haleem
your Lord has not forsaken you [Prophet], nor does He hate you
Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di

{ مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ } أي: ما تركك منذ اعتنى بك، ولا أهملك منذ رباك ورعاك، بل لم يزل يربيك أحسن تربية، ويعليك درجة بعد درجة. { وَمَا قَلا } ك الله أي: ما أبغضك منذ أحبك، فإن نفي الضد دليل على ثبوت ضده، والنفي المحض لا يكون مدحًا، إلا إذا تضمن ثبوت كمال، فهذه حال الرسول صلى الله عليه وسلم الماضية والحاضرة، أكمل حال وأتمها، محبة الله له واستمرارها، وترقيته في درج الكمال، ودوام اعتناء الله به.

وَلَلْآخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ لَّكَ مِنَ الْأُولَىٰ
Abdel Haleem
and the future will be better for you than the past
Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di

وأما حاله المستقبلة، فقال: { وَلَلْآخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ لَكَ مِنَ الْأُولَى } أي: كل حالة متأخرة من أحوالك، فإن لها الفضل على الحالة السابقة. فلم يزل صلى الله عليه وسلم يصعد في درج المعالي ويمكن له الله دينه، وينصره على أعدائه، ويسدد له أحواله، حتى مات، وقد وصل إلى حال لا يصل إليها الأولون والآخرون، من الفضائل والنعم، وقرة العين، وسرور القلب.

وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَىٰ
Abdel Haleem
your Lord is sure to give you so much that you will be well satisfied
Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di

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:

أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيمًا فَآوَىٰ
Abdel Haleem
Did He not find you an orphan and shelter you
Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di

{ أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيمًا فَآوَى } أي: وجدك لا أم لك، ولا أب، بل قد مات أبوه وأمه وهو لا يدبر نفسه، فآواه الله، وكفله جده عبد المطلب، ثم لما مات جده كفله الله عمه أبا طالب، حتى أيده بنصره وبالمؤمنين.

Abdel Haleem

وَوَجَدَكَ عَائِلًا فَأَغْنَىٰ
Abdel Haleem
Did He not find you in need and make you self-sufficient
Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di

{ وَوَجَدَكَ عَائِلًا } أي: فقيرًا { فَأَغْنَى } بما فتح الله عليك من البلدان، التي جبيت لك أموالها وخراجها. فالذي أزال عنك هذه النقائص، سيزيل عنك كل نقص، والذي أوصلك إلى الغنى، وآواك ونصرك وهداك، قابل نعمته بالشكران.

فَأَمَّا الْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ
Abdel Haleem
So do not be harsh with the orpha
Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di

{ فَأَمَّا الْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ } أي: لا تسيء معاملة اليتيم، ولا يضق صدرك عليه، ولا تنهره، بل أكرمه، وأعطه ما تيسر، واصنع به كما تحب أن يصنع بولدك من بعدك.

وَأَمَّا السَّائِلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْ
Abdel Haleem
and do not chide the one who asks for help
Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di

{ وَأَمَّا السَّائِلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْ } أي: لا يصدر منك إلى السائل كلام يقتضي رده عن مطلوبه، بنهر وشراسة خلق، بل أعطه ما تيسر عندك أو رده بمعروف [وإحسان]. وهذا يدخل فيه السائل للمال، والسائل للعلم، ولهذا كان المعلم مأمورًا بحسن الخلق مع المتعلم، ومباشرته بالإكرام والتحنن عليه، فإن في ذلك معونة له على مقصده، وإكرامًا لمن كان يسعى في نفع العباد والبلاد.

وَأَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثْ
Abdel Haleem
talk about the blessings of your Lord
Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di

{ وَأَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ } [وهذا يشمل] النعم الدينية والدنيوية { فَحَدِّثْ } أي: أثن على الله بها، وخصصها بالذكر إن كان هناك مصلحة. وإلا فحدث بنعم الله على الإطلاق، فإن التحدث بنعمة الله، داع لشكرها، وموجب لتحبيب القلوب إلى من أنعم بها، فإن القلوب مجبولة على محبة المحسن.
