An-Nahl Ayah 30-37

النحل آيه 30-37

قوله تعالى:

ثُمَّ يَوْمَ الْقِيٰامَةِ يُخْزِيهِمْ -إلى قوله تعالى- فَلَبِئْسَ مَثْوَى الْمُتَكَبِّرِينَ [27-29]

Qur’an 16:27-29 (M. H. Shakir):

16:27 Then on the day of resurrection He will disgrace them and say: Where are My associates for whose sake you became hostile? Those who are given the knowledge will say: Surely disgrace and evil are this day upon the unbelievers.

16:28 Those whom the angels cause to die while they are unjust to their souls. Then would they offer submission: We did not do any evil. Yea! surely Allah knows what you did.

16:29 Therefore enter the gates of hell, to abide therein; so certainly evil is the abode of the proud.

99-/6012 _7- عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ،عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ(عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ)قَالَ: فَأَتَى اللّٰهُ بُنْيٰانَهُمْ مِنَ الْقَوٰاعِدِ .

قَالَ:«كَانَ بَيْتَ غَدْرٍ يَجْتَمِعُونَ فِيهِ إِذَا أَرَادُوا الشَّرَّ».

99-/6012: From Muhammad ibn Muslim, from Abu Ja‘far (peace be upon him), he said regarding “So Allah came upon their building from the foundations”: “It was a house of treachery where they would gather whenever they intended evil.”

99-/6013 _1-قال عليّ بن إبراهيم:قوله تعالى: ثُمَّ يَوْمَ الْقِيٰامَةِ يُخْزِيهِمْ وَ يَقُولُ أَيْنَ شُرَكٰائِيَ الَّذِينَ كُنْتُمْ تُشَاقُّونَ فِيهِمْ قٰالَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْعِلْمَ إِنَّ الْخِزْيَ الْيَوْمَ وَ السُّوءَ عَلَى الْكٰافِرِينَ قال:الذين أوتوا العلم:

الأئمة(عليهم السلام)يقولون لأعدائهم:أين شركاؤكم،و من أطعتموهم في الدنيا؟ ثم قال فيهم أيضا: اَلَّذِينَ تَتَوَفّٰاهُمُ الْمَلاٰئِكَةُ ظٰالِمِي أَنْفُسِهِمْ فَأَلْقَوُا السَّلَمَ سلموا لما أصابهم من البلاء،ثمّ يقولون: مٰا كُنّٰا نَعْمَلُ مِنْ سُوءٍ فردّ اللّه عليهم،فقال: بَلىٰ إِنَّ اللّٰهَ عَلِيمٌ بِمٰا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ* فَادْخُلُوا أَبْوٰابَ جَهَنَّمَ خٰالِدِينَ فِيهٰا فَلَبِئْسَ مَثْوَى الْمُتَكَبِّرِينَ .

99-/6013 _1: ‘Ali ibn Ibrahim said regarding the verse “Then on the Day of Resurrection He will disgrace them, and will say: Where are My partners for whose sake you used to oppose [the believers]? Those who were given knowledge will say: Surely disgrace today and evil are upon the unbelievers”: Those who were given knowledge are the Imams (peace be upon them); they will say to their enemies: Where are your partners and those whom you obeyed in the world? Then concerning them He also said: “Those whom the angels take while they are wronging themselves—so they offer submission,” meaning they submit to what has struck them of affliction; then they say: “We did not do any evil.” Allah refutes them, saying: “Yes! Surely Allah is Knowing of what you used to do. So enter the gates of Hell to abide therein; and evil indeed is the abode of the proud.”

قوله تعالى:

وَ قِيلَ لِلَّذِينَ اتَّقَوْا مٰا ذٰا أَنْزَلَ رَبُّكُمْ قٰالُوا خَيْراً لِلَّذِينَ أَحْسَنُوا فِي هٰذِهِ الدُّنْيٰا حَسَنَةٌ وَ لَدٰارُ الْآخِرَةِ خَيْرٌ وَ لَنِعْمَ دٰارُ الْمُتَّقِينَ -إلى قوله تعالى- إِنْ تَحْرِصْ عَلىٰ هُدٰاهُمْ فَإِنَّ اللّٰهَ لاٰ يَهْدِي مَنْ يُضِلُّ [30-37]

Qur’an 16:30-37 (M. H. Shakir):

16:30 And it shall be said to those who guard (against evil): What is it that your Lord has revealed? They shall say: Good; for those who do good in this world is good; and certainly the abode of the hereafter is better and certainly most excellent is the abode of those who guard (against evil).

16:31 Gardens of perpetuity which they will enter, beneath which rivers flow; they shall have therein what they please; thus does Allah reward those who guard (against evil),

16:32 Those whom the angels cause to die in a good state, saying: Peace be on you: enter the garden for what you did.

16:33 They do not wait aught but that the angels should come to them or that the command of your Lord should come; thus did those before them; and Allah did them no injustice, but they were unjust to themselves.

16:34 So that the evils of what they did may afflict them, and that which they mocked at shall beset them.

16:35 And those who associated (others with Allah) say: If Allah had pleased, we would not have served aught but Him, (neither) we nor our fathers, nor would we have forbidden aught without (command from) Him; thus did those before them; is then aught (incumbent) on the messengers but a plain delivering (of the message)?

16:36 And certainly We raised in every nation an apostle, saying: Serve Allah and shun the Shaitan (Taghut); so there were some of them whom Allah guided and there were others against whom error became due; therefore travel in the land, then see what was the end of the rejecters.

16:37 If you desire for their guidance, yet surely Allah does not guide him who leads astray, and they shall have no helpers.

99-/6014 _2: Al-Shaykh in his Amali said: Abu ‘Abd Allah Muhammad ibn Muhammad ibn al-Nu‘man (may Allah have mercy on him) narrated to us, he said: Abu al-Hasan ‘Ali ibn Muhammad ibn Hubaysh al-Katib informed me, he said: al-Hasan ibn ‘Ali al-Za‘farani informed me, he said: Abu Ishaq Ibrahim ibn Muhammad al-Thaqafi informed me, he said: ‘Abd Allah ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Uthman narrated to us, he said: ‘Ali ibn Muhammad ibn Abi Sa‘id narrated to us, from Fudayl ibn al-Ja‘d, from Abu Ishaq al-Hamdani, from the Commander of the Faithful (peace be upon him) in what he wrote to Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr and to the people of Egypt when he appointed him over Egypt—in a long discourse—he (peace be upon him) said: “O servants of Allah, the closest a servant is to forgiveness and mercy is when he acts [for Allah] in His obedience and is sincere to Him in his repentance. Adhere to the fear of Allah, for it gathers all good, and there is no good besides it; and through it one attains of good what cannot be attained without it, of the good of this world and the good of the Hereafter. Allah, Mighty and Majestic, said: ‘And it shall be said to those who guard (against evil): What is it that your Lord has revealed? They shall say: Good. For those who do good in this world is good, and certainly the abode of the Hereafter is better; and most excellent indeed is the abode of the Godwary.’”

99-/6015 _2- الْعَيَّاشِيُّ:عَنِ ابْنِ مُسْكَانَ،عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ(عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ) فِي قَوْلِهِ: وَ لَنِعْمَ دٰارُ الْمُتَّقِينَ .

قَالَ:«الدُّنْيَا».

99-/6015 _2: Al-‘Ayyashi: From Ibn Maskan, from Abu Ja‘far (peace be upon him), regarding His saying: “And most excellent indeed is the abode of the Godwary.” He said: “The world.”

/6016 _3-و قال عليّ بن إبراهيم:ثم ذكر المؤمنين فقال: اَلَّذِينَ تَتَوَفّٰاهُمُ الْمَلاٰئِكَةُ طَيِّبِينَ قوله:

طَيِّبِينَ قال:هم المؤمنون الذين طابت مواليدهم في الدنيا. ثم قال:قوله: هَلْ يَنْظُرُونَ إِلاّٰ أَنْ تَأْتِيَهُمُ الْمَلاٰئِكَةُ أَوْ يَأْتِيَ أَمْرُ رَبِّكَ [من العذاب و الموت،و خروج القائم(عليه السلام) كَذٰلِكَ فَعَلَ الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ وَ مٰا ظَلَمَهُمُ اللّٰهُ وَ لٰكِنْ كٰانُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ يَظْلِمُونَ ، و قوله: فَأَصٰابَهُمْ سَيِّئٰاتُ مٰا عَمِلُوا وَ حٰاقَ بِهِمْ مٰا كٰانُوا بِهِ يَسْتَهْزِؤُنَ ]من العذاب في الرجعة.

ثم قال:قوله: وَ قٰالَ الَّذِينَ أَشْرَكُوا لَوْ شٰاءَ اللّٰهُ مٰا عَبَدْنٰا مِنْ دُونِهِ مِنْ شَيْءٍ نَحْنُ وَ لاٰ آبٰاؤُنٰا وَ لاٰ حَرَّمْنٰا مِنْ دُونِهِ مِنْ شَيْءٍ كَذٰلِكَ فَعَلَ الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ فَهَلْ عَلَى الرُّسُلِ إِلاَّ الْبَلاٰغُ الْمُبِينُ [فإنه محكم]ثم قال:قوله:

وَ لَقَدْ بَعَثْنٰا فِي كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ رَسُولاً أَنِ اعْبُدُوا اللّٰهَ وَ اجْتَنِبُوا الطّٰاغُوتَ يعني الأصنامَ فَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ هَدَى اللّٰهُ وَ مِنْهُمْ مَنْ حَقَّتْ عَلَيْهِ الضَّلاٰلَةُ فَسِيرُوا فِي الْأَرْضِ فَانْظُرُوا كَيْفَ كٰانَ عٰاقِبَةُ الْمُكَذِّبِينَ أي انظروا في أخبار من هلك من قبل.

/6016 _3: And ‘Ali ibn Ibrahim said: Then He mentioned the believers, saying: “Those whom the angels take in a good state (tayyibin).” His saying “tayyibin” means: they are the believers whose births were pure in the world. Then he said regarding His saying: “Do they wait for aught but that the angels should come to them or that the command of your Lord should come”—[of punishment and death, and the rise of the Qa’im (peace be upon him)]—“thus did those before them; and Allah did not wrong them, but they were wronging themselves; and His saying: ‘So that the evils of what they did shall afflict them, and that which they mocked at shall beset them’”—[of the punishment in the Raj‘a (return)]. Then he said regarding His saying: “And those who associated (others with Allah) said: If Allah had willed, we would not have worshiped anything other than Him, neither we nor our fathers, nor would we have forbidden anything without Him. Thus did those before them. Is aught upon the messengers except a clear conveying?” [for it is decisive]. Then he said regarding His saying: “And indeed We sent in every nation a messenger: that you should worship Allah and avoid the Taghut,” meaning the idols; “so among them were those whom Allah guided, and among them were those upon whom error became due. So travel in the land and see how was the end of the deniers”—that is, look into the reports of those who perished before.

99-/6017 _4- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ:عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى،عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ،عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ،عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى،عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ الْمُخْتَارِ،عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ،عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ(عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ)قَالَ: «كُلُّ رَايَةٍ تُرْفَعُ قَبْلَ قِيَامِ الْقَائِمِ، فَصَاحِبُهَا طَاغُوتٌ يُعْبَدُ مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ».

99-/6017 _4: Muhammad ibn Ya‘qub: from Muhammad ibn Yahya, from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id, from Hammad ibn ‘Isa, from al-Husayn ibn al-Mukhtar, from Abu Basir, from Abu ‘Abd Allah (peace be upon him), who said: “Every banner that is raised before the rise of the Qa’im, its bearer is a Taghut who is worshiped apart from Allah, Mighty and Majestic.”

99-/6018 _5- الْعَيَّاشِيُّ:عَنْ خَطَّابِ بْنِ مَسْلَمَةَ،قَالَ:قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ(عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ): «مَا بَعَثَ اللَّهُ نَبِيّاً قَطُّ إِلاَّ بِوَلاَيَتِنَا وَ الْبَرَاءَةِ مِنْ أَعْدَائِنَا،وَ ذَلِكَ قَوْلُ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فِي كِتَابِهِ: وَ لَقَدْ بَعَثْنٰا فِي كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ رَسُولاً أَنِ اعْبُدُوا اللّٰهَ وَ اجْتَنِبُوا الطّٰاغُوتَ فَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ هَدَى اللّٰهُ وَ مِنْهُمْ مَنْ حَقَّتْ عَلَيْهِ الضَّلاٰلَةُ بِتَكْذِيبِهِمْ آلَ مُحَمَّدٍ(صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِمْ أَجْمَعِينَ)،ثُمَّ قَالَ:

فَسِيرُوا فِي الْأَرْضِ فَانْظُرُوا كَيْفَ كٰانَ عٰاقِبَةُ الْمُكَذِّبِينَ ».

99-/6018 _5: Al-‘Ayyashi: from Khattab ibn Maslamah, who said: Abu Ja‘far (peace be upon him) said: “Allah never sent any prophet except with our Wilayah and with disavowal of our enemies. And that is the saying of Allah, Mighty and Majestic, in His Book: ‘And certainly We raised in every nation an apostle (saying): Serve Allah and shun the Taghut. So among them were those whom Allah guided, and among them were those upon whom error became due’—because of their denial of the Family of Muhammad (blessings of Allah be upon them all). Then He said: ‘So travel in the land, then see how was the end of the deniers.’”

/6019 _6-و قال عليّ بن إبراهيم:و قوله: إِنْ تَحْرِصْ عَلىٰ هُدٰاهُمْ مخاطبة للنبي(صلّى اللّه عليه و آله) فَإِنَّ اللّٰهَ لاٰ يَهْدِي أي لا يُثِيبُ، مَنْ يُضِلُّ أي من يعذب.

/6019 _6: And ‘Ali ibn Ibrahim said regarding His saying: “If you are eager for their guidance”—it is an address to the Prophet (may Allah bless him and his family). “Surely Allah does not guide” means He does not reward; “him who leads astray” means the one whom He punishes.

قوله تعالى:

وَ أَقْسَمُوا بِاللّٰهِ جَهْدَ أَيْمٰانِهِمْ لاٰ يَبْعَثُ اللّٰهُ مَنْ يَمُوتُ بَلىٰ وَعْداً عَلَيْهِ حَقًّا وَ لٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النّٰاسِ لاٰ يَعْلَمُونَ -إلى قوله تعالى- وَ لِيَعْلَمَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا أَنَّهُمْ كٰانُوا كٰاذِبِينَ [38-39]

Qur’an 16:38-39 (M. H. Shakir):

16:38 And they swore by Allah with the strongest of their oaths that Allah will not raise up him who dies. Yea! it is a promise binding on Him which must be fulfilled—but most people do not know—

16:39 So that He might make manifest to them that about which they differ, and that those who disbelieve might know that they were liars.

99-/6020 _1: Muhammad ibn Ya‘qub: with his chain from Sahl, from Muhammad, from his father, from Abu Basir, who said: I said to Abu ‘Abd Allah (peace be upon him) regarding His, Blessed and Exalted, saying: “And they swore by Allah with the strongest of their oaths that Allah will not raise up him who dies; Yea! a promise binding on Him in truth, but most people do not know.” He said to me: “O Abu Basir, what do you say about this verse?” I said: The polytheists claim and swear to the Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and his family) that Allah will not raise the dead. He said: “Perdition be upon whoever says that [1]. Did the polytheists swear by Allah, or by al-Lat and al-‘Uzza?” I said: May I be ransomed for you, then show it to me. He said to me: “O Abu Basir, when our Qa’im rises, Allah will send to him a people from our Shi‘a, the pommels [2] of their swords upon their shoulders. That will reach a people from our Shi‘a who have not died, and they will say: So-and-so and so-and-so and so-and-so have been raised from their graves, and they are with the Qa’im. Then that will reach a people from our enemies, and they will say: O company of Shi‘a, how great liars you are! This is your state, and you speak lies in it! By Allah, these have not lived, nor will they live till the Day of Resurrection.” He said: So Allah related their statement, saying: “And they swore by Allah with the strongest of their oaths that Allah will not raise up him who dies.”

/6021 _2-علي بن إبراهيم،في قوله تعالى: وَ أَقْسَمُوا بِاللّٰهِ جَهْدَ أَيْمٰانِهِمْ لاٰ يَبْعَثُ اللّٰهُ مَنْ يَمُوتُ بَلىٰ وَعْداً عَلَيْهِ حَقًّا وَ لٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النّٰاسِ لاٰ يَعْلَمُونَ

قَالَ:حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي،عَنْ بَعْضِ رِجَالِهِ،رَفَعَهُ إِلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ(عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ) قَالَ: «مَا تَقُولُ النَّاسُ فِيهَا؟».قَالَ:يَقُولُونَ:نَزَلَتْ فِي الْكُفَّارِ.

فَقَالَ:«إِنَّ الْكُفَّارَ كَانُوا لاَ يَحْلِفُونَ بِاللَّهِ،وَ إِنَّمَا نَزَلَتْ فِي قَوْمٍ مِنْ أُمَّةِ مُحَمَّدٍ(صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ)،قِيلَ لَهُمْ:تُرْجَعُونَ بَعْدَ الْمَوْتِ قَبْلَ الْقِيَامَةِ،فَحَلَفُوا أَنَّهُمْ لاَ يَرْجِعُونَ،فَرَدَّ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ فَقَالَ: لِيُبَيِّنَ لَهُمُ الَّذِي يَخْتَلِفُونَ فِيهِ وَ لِيَعْلَمَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا أَنَّهُمْ كٰانُوا كٰاذِبِينَ

/6021 _2: ‘Ali ibn Ibrahim, regarding His saying: “And they swore by Allah with the strongest of their oaths that Allah will not raise up him who dies; Yea! a promise binding on Him in truth, but most people do not know”—said: My father narrated to me, from some of his men, raising it to Abu ‘Abd Allah (peace be upon him). He said: “What do the people say about it?” He said: They say it was revealed about the unbelievers. He said: “The unbelievers would not swear by Allah. Rather, it was revealed about a people from the Umma of Muhammad (may Allah bless him and his family). It was said to them: You will return after death before the Resurrection; so they swore that they would not return. Then Allah rebutted them, saying: ‘That He might make manifest to them that about which they differ, and that those who disbelieve might know that they were liars.’”
