Commentary on 19:54–55
القَوْلُ في تَأْوِيلِ قَوْلِهِ تَعالى:
[٥٤] ﴿واذْكُرْ في الكِتابِ إسْماعِيلَ إنَّهُ كانَ صادِقَ الوَعْدِ وكانَ رَسُولا نَبِيًّا﴾ [٥٥] ﴿وكانَ يَأْمُرُ أهْلَهُ بِالصَّلاةِ والزَّكاةِ وكانَ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِ مَرْضِيًّا﴾ [مريم: ٥٥] .
﴿واذْكُرْ في الكِتابِ إسْماعِيلَ﴾ وهو ابْنُ إبْراهِيمَ عَلَيْهِما السَّلامُ. وإنَّما فَصَّلَ ذِكْرَهُ عَنْ ذِكْرِ أبِيهِ وأخِيهِ، لِإبْرازِ كَمالِ الِاعْتِناءِ بِأمْرِهِ، بِإيرادِهِ مُسْتَقِلًّا. وقَوْلُهُ: ﴿إنَّهُ كانَ صادِقَ الوَعْدِ﴾ تَعْلِيلٌ لِلْأمْرِ. وإيرادُهُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ بِهَذا الوَصْفِ، وإنْ شارَكَهُ فِيهِ بَقِيَّةُ الأنْبِياءِ، تَشْرِيفًا لَهُ وإكْرامًا. ولِأنَّهُ المَشْهُورُ مِن خِصالِهِ. وناهِيكَ أنَّهُ وعَدَ مِن نَفْسِهِ الصَّبْرَ عَلى الذَّبْحِ، فَوَفّى بِهِ حَيْثُ قالَ: سَتَجِدُنِي إنْ شاءَ اللَّهُ مِنَ الصّابِرِينَ، وهَذا أعْظَمُ ما يُتَصَوَّرُ فِيهِ. وفِيهِ تَنْبِيهٌ بِعِظَمِ هَذِهِ الخِلَّةِ. ولِذا كانَ ضِدُّها نِفاقًا، كَما صَرَّحَتْ بِهِ الأخْبارُ ﴿وكانَ رَسُولا نَبِيًّا﴾ ﴿وكانَ يَأْمُرُ أهْلَهُ بِالصَّلاةِ والزَّكاةِ﴾ [مريم: ٥٥] أيْ: كانَ يَبْدَأُ أهْلَهُ في الأمْرِ بِالصَّلاحِ والعِبادَةِ لِيَجْعَلَهم قُدْوَةً لِمَن وراءَهم. ولِأنَّهم أوْلى مِن سائِرِ النّاسِ: ﴿وأنْذِرْ عَشِيرَتَكَ (p-٤١٥١)الأقْرَبِينَ﴾ [الشعراء: ٢١٤] ﴿وأْمُرْ أهْلَكَ بِالصَّلاةِ﴾ [طه: ١٣٢] ﴿قُوا أنْفُسَكم وأهْلِيكم نارًا﴾ [التحريم: ٦] ألا تَرى أنَّهم أحَقُّ بِالتَّصَدُّقِ عَلَيْهِمْ؟ فالإحْسانُ الدِّينِيُّ أوْلى. أفادَهُ الزَّمَخْشَرِيُّ. ﴿وكانَ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِ مَرْضِيًّا﴾ [مريم: ٥٥] أيْ: لِاتِّصافِهِ بِالنُّعُوتِ الجَلِيلَةِ الَّتِي مِنها ما ذُكِرَ. وقَوْلُهُ تَعالى:

وَوَهَبۡنَا لَهُۥ مِن رَّحۡمَتِنَآ أَخَاهُ هَٰرُونَ نَبِيّٗا ٥٣

19:54
وَٱذۡكُرۡ فِي ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ إِسۡمَٰعِيلَۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ صَادِقَ ٱلۡوَعۡدِ وَكَانَ رَسُولٗا نَّبِيّٗا ٥٤

أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَنۡعَمَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيۡهِم مِّنَ ٱلنَّبِيِّـۧنَ مِن ذُرِّيَّةِ ءَادَمَ وَمِمَّنۡ حَمَلۡنَا مَعَ نُوحٖ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّةِ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ وَإِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ وَمِمَّنۡ هَدَيۡنَا وَٱجۡتَبَيۡنَآۚ إِذَا تُتۡلَىٰ عَلَيۡهِمۡ ءَايَٰتُ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ خَرُّواْۤ سُجَّدٗاۤ وَبُكِيّٗا۩ ٥٨
Those were the ones upon whom Allāh bestowed favor from among the prophets of the descendants of Adam and of those We carried [in the ship] with Noah, and of the descendants of Abraham and Israel [i.e., Jacob], and of those whom We guided and chose. When the verses of the Most Merciful were recited to them, they fell in prostration and weeping.
19:59
۞ فَخَلَفَ مِنۢ بَعۡدِهِمۡ خَلۡفٌ أَضَاعُواْ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَٱتَّبَعُواْ ٱلشَّهَوَٰتِۖ فَسَوۡفَ يَلۡقَوۡنَ غَيًّا ٥٩

Except those who repent, believe and do righteousness; for those will enter Paradise and will not be wronged at all.
19:61
جَنَّٰتِ عَدۡنٍ ٱلَّتِي وَعَدَ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ عِبَادَهُۥ بِٱلۡغَيۡبِۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ وَعۡدُهُۥ مَأۡتِيّٗا ٦١

They will not hear therein any ill speech - only [greetings of] peace - and they will have their provision therein, morning and afternoon.

تِلۡكَ ٱلۡجَنَّةُ ٱلَّتِي نُورِثُ مِنۡ عِبَادِنَا مَن كَانَ تَقِيّٗا ٦٣
That is Paradise, which We give as inheritance to those of Our servants who were fearing of Allāh.

وَمَا نَتَنَزَّلُ إِلَّا بِأَمۡرِ رَبِّكَۖ لَهُۥ مَا بَيۡنَ أَيۡدِينَا وَمَا خَلۡفَنَا وَمَا بَيۡنَ ذَٰلِكَۚ وَمَا كَانَ رَبُّكَ نَسِيّٗا ٦٤
