Commentary on 21:59
Когда многобожники увидели, какое унижение и бесчестие постигло их божества, они решили, что учинить подобное мог только беззаконник. Они нарекли Ибрахима беззаконником, хотя сами они гораздо больше заслуживали этого эпитета. Он разрушил идолы, но они не ведали о том, что этот поступок был одним из его достоинств и свидетельствовал о его справедливости и приверженности единобожию. Воистину, беззаконником является тот, кто превращает идолов и истуканов в божества.
