Taha Ayah 54

يَقْبَلِ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ إِيمَانَهُ،وَ قَالَ: آلْآنَ وَ قَدْ عَصَيْتَ قَبْلُ وَ كُنْتَ مِنَ الْمُفْسِدِينَ* فَالْيَوْمَ نُنَجِّيكَ بِبَدَنِكَ لِتَكُونَ لِمَنْ خَلْفَكَ آيَةً [1]،يَقُولُ:نُلْقِيكَ عَلَى نَجْوَةٍ [2] مِنَ الْأَرْضِ،لِتَكُونَ لِمَنْ بَعْدَكَ عَلاَمَةً وَ عِبْرَةً».

99-/— English: Allah, Mighty and Majestic, would accept his faith, and He said: What! now! and indeed you disobeyed before and you were of the mischief-makers. But this day We save you in your body that you may be a sign to those after you [1]. That is, We will cast you upon a height [2] of the land, so that you may be a sign and a lesson for those after you.

قوله تعالى:

قٰالَ رَبُّنَا الَّذِي أَعْطىٰ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ خَلْقَهُ ثُمَّ هَدىٰ [50]

Qur’an 20:50 — He said: Our Lord is He Who gave to everything its creation, then guided it (to its goal). (M. H. Shakir)

99-/7014 _1- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ:عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى،عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ،عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ،عَنْ سَيْفِ بْنِ عَمِيرَةَ،عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ،عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ،قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ(عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ)عَنْ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ:

أَعْطىٰ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ خَلْقَهُ ثُمَّ هَدىٰ قَالَ:«لَيْسَ[شَيْءٌ]مِنْ خَلْقِ اللَّهِ إِلاَّ وَ هُوَ يُعْرَفُ مِنْ شَكْلِهِ الذَّكَرُ مِنَ الْأُنْثَى».

قُلْتُ:مَا مَعْنَى ثُمَّ هَدىٰ ؟قَالَ:هَدَاهُ لِلنِّكَاحِ،وَ السِّفَاحِ مِنْ شَكْلِهِ».

99-/7014 — English: Muhammad b. Ya‘qub, from Muhammad b. Yahya, from Ahmad b. Muhammad, from ‘Ali b. al-Hakam, from Sayf b. ‘Umayrah, from Ibrahim b. Maymun, from Muhammad b. Muslim, said: I asked Abu ‘Abdillah (peace be upon him) about the word of Allah, Mighty and Majestic: “He gave to everything its creation, then guided it.” He said: “There is nothing among Allah’s creation except that, from its form, the male is distinguished from the female.” I said: What is the meaning of “then guided it”? He said: “He guided it, by its form, to marriage and to fornication.”

وَ سَيَأْتِي-إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى-خَبَرُ قِصَّةِ فِرْعَوْنَ وَ مُوسَى وَ هَارُونَ،فِي حَدِيثَيْنِ عَنِ الْبَاقِرِ وَ الصَّادِقِ(عَلَيْهِمَا السَّلاَمُ)،فِي سُورَةِ الشُّعَرَاءِ [3] وَ سُورَةِ الْقَصَصِ [4].

— English: And, God willing, the account of the story of Pharaoh and Moses and Aaron will come, in two reports from al-Baqir and al-Sadiq (peace be upon them), in Surah al-Shu‘ara’ [3] and Surah al-Qasas [4].

قوله تعالى:

كُلُوا وَارْعَوْا أَنْعَامَكُمْ إِنَّ فِي ذٰلِكَ لَآيٰاتٍ لِأُولِي النُّهىٰ [54]

Qur’an 20:54 — Eat and pasture your cattle; most surely there are signs in this for those endowed with understanding. (M. H. Shakir)

99-/7015 _2- عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ،قَالَ:حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي،عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ،عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ رِئَابٍ،عَنْ مَرْوَانَ،عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ(عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ)،قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ: إِنَّ فِي ذٰلِكَ لَآيٰاتٍ لِأُولِي النُّهىٰ قَالَ:«نَحْنُ-وَ اللَّهِ- أُولُوا النُّهَى».

فَقُلْتُ:جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ،وَ مَا مَعْنَى أُولِي النُّهَى؟قَالَ:«مَا أَخْبَرَ اللَّهُ بِهِ رَسُولَهُ(صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ)مِمَّا يَكُونُ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ، مِنِ ادِّعَاءِ أَبِي فُلاَنٍ الْخِلاَفَةَ وَ الْقِيَامِ بِهَا،وَ الْآخَرِ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ،وَ الثَّالِثِ مِنْ بَعْدِهِمَا،وَ بَنِي أُمَيَّةَ،فَأَخْبَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ(صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ)،فَكَانَ ذَلِكَ كَمَا أَخْبَرَ اللَّهُ بِهِ نَبِيَّهُ(صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ)،وَ كَمَا أَخْبَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ(صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ)عَلِيّاً(عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ)،

99-/7015 — English: ‘Ali b. Ibrahim said: My father narrated to me, from al-Hasan b. Mahbub, from ‘Ali b. Ri’ab, from Marwan, from Abu ‘Abdillah (peace be upon him). He said: I asked him about the word of Allah, Mighty and Majestic: “Most surely there are signs in this for those endowed with understanding.” He said: “By Allah, we are the possessors of understanding (ulu al-nuha).” I said: May I be your ransom, what is the meaning of “ulu al-nuha”? He said: “It is what Allah informed His Messenger (Allah bless him and his family) would occur after him—of Abu-So-and-so’s claiming the caliphate and assuming it, and another after him, and the third after the two of them, and the Banu Umayyah. So the Messenger of Allah informed (of this), and it was just as Allah had informed His Prophet (Allah bless him and his family), and as the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and his family) informed ‘Ali (peace be upon him),

وَ كَمَا انْتَهَى إِلَيْنَا مِنْ عَلِيٍّ(عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ)،فِيمَا يَكُونُ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ مِنَ الْمُلْكِ،فِي بَنِي أُمَيَّةَ وَ غَيْرِهِمْ،فَهَذِهِ الْآيَةُ الَّتِي ذَكَرَهَا اللَّهُ تَعَالَى فِي الْكِتَابِ إِنَّ فِي ذٰلِكَ لَآيٰاتٍ لِأُولِي النُّهىٰ الَّذِي انْتَهَى إِلَيْنَا عِلْمُ ذَلِكَ كُلِّهِ،فَصَبَرْنَا لِأَمْرِ اللَّهِ،فَنَحْنُ قُوَّامُ اللَّهِ عَلَى خَلْقِهِ،وَ خُزَّانُهُ عَلَى دِينِهِ،نَخْزَنُهُ وَ نَسْتُرُهُ،وَ نَكْتُمُ بِهِ مِنْ عَدُوِّنَا،كَمَا كَتَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ(صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ)حَتَّى أَذِنَ اللَّهُ لَهُ فِي الْهِجْرَةِ،وَ جَاهَدَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ،فَنَحْنُ عَلَى مِنْهَاجِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ(صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ)،حَتَّى يَأْذَنَ اللَّهُ لَنَا فِي إِظْهَارِ دِينِهِ بِالسَّيْفِ،وَ نَدْعُو النَّاسَ إِلَيْهِ،فَنَضْرِبُهُمْ [1] عَلَيْهِ عَوْداً،كَمَا ضَرَبَهُمْ [2] رَسُولُ اللَّهِ(صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ)بَدْءاً».

99-/7015 — English: and as it has reached us from ‘Ali (peace be upon him) regarding what would occur after him of dominion among the Banu Umayyah and others. So this is the verse which Allah, Exalted, mentioned in the Book: “Most surely there are signs in this for those endowed with understanding”—the knowledge of all of which has reached us. Thus we were patient with the command of Allah. We are Allah’s stewards over His creation, and His treasurers over His religion—we safeguard it, conceal it, and hide it from our enemy—just as the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and his family) concealed (matters) until Allah permitted him to migrate and to struggle against the polytheists. We are upon the course of the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and his family) until Allah permits us to manifest His religion by the sword and we call the people to it; then we shall strike them [1] for it again, just as the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and his family) struck them [2] at the beginning.”

Marwan, from Abu ‘Abdillah (peace be upon him), regarding the word of Allah, Mighty and Majestic: “Most surely there are signs in this for those endowed with understanding.” He said: “By Allah, we are the possessors of understanding,” and he carried the hadith through to its end [4].
