Commentary on 13:43
(p-29)﴿وَيَقُولُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَسْتَ مُرْسَلا﴾ قِيلَ: قالَهُ رُؤَساءُ اليَهُودِ، وصِيغَةُ الِاسْتِقْبالِ لِاسْتِحْضارِ صُورَةِ كَلِمَتِهِمُ الشَّنْعاءِ تَعْجِيبًا مِنها، أوْ لِلدَّلالَةِ عَلى تَجَدُّدٍ ذَلِكَ، واسْتِمْرارِهِ مِنهم.
﴿قُلْ كَفى بِاللَّهِ شَهِيدًا بَيْنِي وبَيْنَكُمْ﴾ فَإنَّهُ قَدْ أظْهَرَ عَلى رِسالَتِي مِنَ الحُجَجِ القاطِعَةِ، والبَيِّناتِ السّاطِعَةِ ما فِيهِ مَندُوحَةٌ عَنْ شَهادَةِ شاهِدٍ آخَرَ ﴿وَمَن عِنْدَهُ عِلْمُ الكِتابِ﴾ أيْ: عِلْمُ القرآن، وما عَلَيْهِ مِنَ النَّظْمِ المُعْجِزِ، أوْ مَن هو مِن عُلَماءِ أهْلِ الكِتابِ الَّذِينَ أسْلَمُوا لِأنَّهم يَشْهَدُونَ بِنَعْتِهِ عَلَيْهِ الصَّلاةُ والسَّلامُ في كُتُبِهِمْ. والآيَةُ مَدَنِيَّةٌ بِالِاتِّفاقِ، أوْ مَن عِنْدَهُ عِلْمُ اللَّوْحِ المَحْفُوظِ، وهو اللَّهُ سُبْحانَهُ. أيْ: كَفى بِهِ شاهِدًا بَيْنَنا بِالَّذِي يَسْتَحِقُّ العِبادَةَ، فَإنَّهُ قَدْ شَحَنَ كِتابَهُ بِالدَّعْوَةِ إلى عِبادَتِهِ، وأيَّدَنِي بِأنْواعِ التَّأْيِيدِ، وبِالَّذِي يَخْتَصُّ بِعِلْمِ ما في اللَّوْحِ مِنَ الأشْياءِ الكائِنَةِ الثّابِتَةِ الَّتِي مِن جُمْلَتِها رِسالَتِي. وقُرِئَ: مِن عِنْدِهِ بِالكَسْرِ، وعِلْمُ الكِتابِ عَلى الأوَّلِ مُرْتَفِعٌ بِالظَّرْفِ المُعْتَمِدِ المَوْصُولِ، أوْ مُبْتَدَأٌ خَبَرُهُ الظَّرْفُ، وهو مُتَعَيِّنٌ عَلى الثّانِي، ومِن عِنْدِهِ عُلِمَ الكِتابُ بِالكَسْرِ، وبِناءِ المَفْعُولِ، ورَفْعِ الكِتابِ. عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «مَن قَرَأ سُورَةَ الرَّعْدِ أُعْطِيَ مِنَ الأجْرِ عَشْرَ حَسَناتٍ، بِوَزْنِ كُلِّ سَحابٍ مَضى، وكُلِّ سَحابٍ يَكُونُ إلى يَوْمِ القِيامَةِ، وبُعِثَ يَوْمَ القِيامَةِ مِنَ المُوفِينَ بِعَهْدِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وجَلَّ» . واللَّهُ أعْلَمُ بِالصَّوابِ.

بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
14:1
الٓرۚ كِتَٰبٌ أَنزَلۡنَٰهُ إِلَيۡكَ لِتُخۡرِجَ ٱلنَّاسَ مِنَ ٱلظُّلُمَٰتِ إِلَى ٱلنُّورِ بِإِذۡنِ رَبِّهِمۡ إِلَىٰ صِرَٰطِ ٱلۡعَزِيزِ ٱلۡحَمِيدِ ١
Alif, Lām, Rā.1 [This is] a Book which We have revealed to you, [O Muḥammad], that you might bring mankind out of darknesses into the light by permission of their Lord - to the path of the Exalted in Might, the Praiseworthy -

14:2
ٱللَّهِ ٱلَّذِي لَهُۥ مَا فِي ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَمَا فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِۗ وَوَيۡلٞ لِّلۡكَٰفِرِينَ مِنۡ عَذَابٖ شَدِيدٍ ٢
Allāh, to whom belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. And woe [i.e., destruction] to the disbelievers from a severe punishment -
14:3
ٱلَّذِينَ يَسۡتَحِبُّونَ ٱلۡحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنۡيَا عَلَى ٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ وَيَصُدُّونَ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ وَيَبۡغُونَهَا عِوَجًاۚ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ فِي ضَلَٰلِۭ بَعِيدٖ ٣
The ones who prefer the worldly life over the Hereafter and avert [people] from the way of Allāh, seeking to make it [seem] deviant. Those are in extreme error.
14:4
وَمَآ أَرۡسَلۡنَا مِن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا بِلِسَانِ قَوۡمِهِۦ لِيُبَيِّنَ لَهُمۡۖ فَيُضِلُّ ٱللَّهُ مَن يَشَآءُ وَيَهۡدِي مَن يَشَآءُۚ وَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلۡحَكِيمُ ٤
And We did not send any messenger except [speaking] in the language of his people to state clearly for them, and Allāh sends astray [thereby] whom He wills1 and guides whom He wills. And He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.

14:5
وَلَقَدۡ أَرۡسَلۡنَا مُوسَىٰ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَآ أَنۡ أَخۡرِجۡ قَوۡمَكَ مِنَ ٱلظُّلُمَٰتِ إِلَى ٱلنُّورِ وَذَكِّرۡهُم بِأَيَّىٰمِ ٱللَّهِۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَٰتٖ لِّكُلِّ صَبَّارٖ شَكُورٖ ٥
And We certainly sent Moses with Our signs, [saying], "Bring out your people from darknesses into the light and remind them of the days1 of Allāh." Indeed in that are signs for everyone patient and grateful.
