Then He turned to the sky, which was smoke––He said to it and the earth, ‘Come into being, willingly or not,’ and they said, ‘We come willingly’––

and in two Days He formed seven heavens, and assigned an order to each. We have made the nearest one beautifully illuminated and secure. Such is the design of the Almighty, the All Knowing
Jalal al-Din al-Mahalli & al-Suyuti

Then He ordained them the suffixed pronoun refers back to al-samā’ ‘the heaven’ because it al-samā’ actually denotes that plural sense to which it will lead in the following clause in other words He made them to be seven heavens in two days — Thursday and Friday. He completed them in the last hour thereof in which He created Adam — which is why He does not say sawā’an ‘evenly’ here as He did earlier; what is said here concords with those verse in which it is stated that the heavens and the earth were created in six days; and in each heaven He revealed its commandment’ that to which He commanded those in it to follow in the way of obedience and worship. And We adorned the lowest heaven with lamps with stars and this was also to guard them hifzan is in the accusative because of its implicit verbal sense in other words ‘We guarded it against the devils lest they try to listen therein to the angels by stealth with meteors’.

Jalal al-Din al-Mahalli & al-Suyuti

As for ‘Ād they acted arrogantly in the earth without right and they said upon their being threatened with the chastisement ‘Who is more powerful than us in might?’ in other words they believed no one to be so — a single man among them could pull out a huge rock from a mountainside and have the strength to place it wherever he wished. Did they not see did they not realise that God He Who created them was more powerful than them in might? And they used to deny Our signs the miracles We sent down.

Jalal al-Din al-Mahalli & al-Suyuti

And We have assigned We have occasioned for them companions from among the devils who have adorned for them that which is before them of what concerns this world and the following after lusts and that which is behind them of what concerns the Hereafter when they make them say that there will be neither resurrection nor reckoning. And the word of chastisement — namely the verse Assuredly I will fill Hell … Q. 11119 — became due against them being among all those communities that passed away that were destroyed before them of jinn and mankind.

If We had made it a foreign Quran, they would have said, ‘If only its verses were clear! What? Foreign speech to an Arab?’ Say, ‘It is guidance and healing for those who have faith, but the ears of the disbelievers are heavy, they are blind to it, it is as if they are being called from a distant place.’
Jalal al-Din al-Mahalli & al-Suyuti

And had We made it namely the Remembrance a non-Arabic Qur’ān they would have said ‘Why have its signs not been explained clearly? so that we might understand them? What! a Qur’ān that is non-Arabic and an Arab prophet?’ this is an interrogative of denial spoken by them; read a-a‘jamiyyun pronouncing both the first and the second hamza or by changing it into an alif and either writing it out in full or not. Say ‘For those who believe it is guidance from error and a healing from the disease of ignorance; but as for those who do not believe there is a deafness in their ears a heaviness and so they are unable to hear it and they are blind to it so they are unable to comprehend it. Those they are as if they were being called from a distant place’ that is to say they are like one who is called from far away unable to hear or comprehend what is being called out to him.

We gave the Scripture to Moses but disputes arose about it- if it were not for a decree that had already been issued from your Lord, they would already have been judged- and still they are doubtful and suspicious of it
Jalal al-Din al-Mahalli & al-Suyuti

And verily We gave Moses the Scripture the Torah but differences arose concerning it in terms of some affirming the truth of it and others denying it as with the Qur’ān; and were it not for a Word that had already preceded from your Lord to defer the reckoning and requital of creatures until the Day of Resurrection judgement would have been made between them in this world concerning that over which they differed; for indeed they the deniers of it are in grave doubt concerning it doubt which leads to utter uncertainty.

Whoever does good does it for his own soul and whoever does evil does it against his own soul: your Lord is never unjust to His creatures
Jalal al-Din al-Mahalli & al-Suyuti

Whoever acts righteously it is for the good of his own soul that he acts thus and whoever does evil it is to the detriment thereof in other words the harm consequent from his evildoing will only be to him. And your Lord is not at all a tyrant to His servants that is He is not One of injustice as He exalted be He says Surely God shall not wrong so much as the weight of an atom Q. 440.

Knowledge of the Hour belongs solely to Him and no crop comes out of its sheath, nor does any female conceive or give birth, without His knowledge. On the Day He asks them, ‘Where are My partners?’ they will answer, ‘We admit to You that none of us can see [them]’
Jalal al-Din al-Mahalli & al-Suyuti

To Him devolves all knowledge of the Hour — when it shall come to pass none other than Him knows this. And no fruit thamaratin a variant reading has the plural thamarātin ‘fruits’ emerges from its sheath its receptacle akmām the plural of kimm except with His knowledge and no female bears child or delivers except with His knowledge. And on the day when He will call out to them ‘Where then are My associates?’ they will say ‘We proclaim to You we now apprise You that there is no witness amongst us’ that is a witness who can testify to the allegation that You have an associate.

the gods they invoked before will have vanished away; they will know that there is no escape
Jalal al-Din al-Mahalli & al-Suyuti

And what they used to call on what they used to worship before in this world of idols has forsaken them and they suppose they will be certain that there is no refuge for them no escape from the chastisement the negation in both instances comments on the operation implied in the nouns of actions; also the negation stands in place of the direct objects in both instances.

Man never tires of asking for good, but if evil touches him he loses all hope and becomes despondent
Jalal al-Din al-Mahalli & al-Suyuti

Man never wearies of supplicating for good in other words he never ceases to ask his Lord for wealth and good health and other good things but should any ill befall him such as impoverishment or hardship then he becomes despondent despairing of God’s mercy — this and what follows relates to the attitude of disbelievers.

Whenever We let him taste some of Our mercy after he has been afflicted, he is sure to say, ‘This is all my own doing: I do not think the Hour will ever come, but even if I were to be taken back to my Lord, the best reward would await me with Him.’ We shall most certainly inform the disbelievers of what they have done and give them a taste of severe torment
Jalal al-Din al-Mahalli & al-Suyuti

And if wa-la-in the lām is for oaths We let him taste if We bestow on him mercy such as riches or good health from Us after the harm the hardship or tribulation that had befallen him he will surely say ‘This is my due! in other words it is on account of what I do. I do not think that the Hour will ever set in and even if wa-la-in the lām is for oaths I am returned to my Lord I will indeed have the best reward with Him’ namely Paradise. But We will assuredly inform those who disbelieve of what they did and assuredly We will make them taste a harsh chastisement the lām prefixed in both verbs is that for oaths.

We shall show them Our signs in every region of the earth and in themselves, until it becomes clear to them that this is the Truth. Is it not enough that your Lord witnesses everything
Jalal al-Din al-Mahalli & al-Suyuti

We shall show them Our signs in the horizons in all the regions of the heavens and the earth in the way of the luminous celestial bodies the varieties of vegetation and trees and in their own souls in the way of the exquisite craftsmanship and unique wisdom inherent in their creation until it becomes clear to them that it namely the Qur’ān is the truth revealed by God informing of the Resurrection the Reckoning and the Punishment so that they realise that they will be punished for their disbelief in it and in the one who has come with it. Is it not sufficient that your Lord bi-rabbika governs the verb yakfi ‘sufficient’ is witness to all things? annahu ‘alā kulli shay’in shahīd substitutes for bi-rabbika. In other words is not sufficient proof of your truthfulness that nothing whatsoever can be hidden from God?
