Commentary on 21:80
وقوله - تعالى : ( وَعَلَّمْنَاهُ صَنْعَةَ لَبُوسٍ لَّكُمْ لِتُحْصِنَكُمْ مِّن بَأْسِكُمْ فَهَلْ أَنتُمْ شَاكِرُونَ ) بيان لنعمة أخرى من النعم التى أنعم الله بها على داود .واللبوس : كل ما يلبس كاللباس والملبس : والمراد به هنا : الدروع .أى : وبجانب ما منحنا داود من فضائل ، فقد علمناه من لدنا صناعة الدروع بحذق وإتقان ، وهذه الصناعة التى علمناه إياها بمهارة وجودة ( لِتُحْصِنَكُمْ مِّن بَأْسِكُمْ ) .أى : لتجعلكم فى حرز ومأمن من الإصابة بآلة الحرب . وتقى بعضكم من بأس بعض ، لأن الدرع تقى صاحبها من ضربات السيوف ، وطعنات الرماح .يقال : أحصن فلان فلانا ، إذا جعله فى حرز وفى مكان منيع من العدوان عليه .والاستفهام فى قوله : ( فَهَلْ أَنتُمْ شَاكِرُونَ ) للحض والأمر أى : فاشكروا الله - تعالى - على هذه النعم ، بأن تستعملوها فى طاعته - سبحانه - .قال القرطبى - رحمه الله - : " وهذه الآية أصل فى اتخاذ الصنائع والأسباب ، وهو قول أهل العقول والألباب . لا قول الجهلة الأغبياء القائلين بأن ذلك إنما شرع للضعفاء ، فالسبب سنة الله فى خلقه ، فمن طعن فى ذلك فقط طعن فى الكتاب والسنة ، وقد أخبر الله - تعالى - عن نبيه داود أنه كان يصنع الدروع ، وكان - أيضا - يصنع الخوص ، وكان يأكل من عمل يده ، وكان آدم حراثا ، ونوح نجارا ، ولقمان خياطا ، وطالوت دباغا ، فالصنعة يكف بها الإنسان نفسه عن الناس ، ويدفع بها عن نفسه الضرر والبأس ، وفى الحديث : " إن الله يحب المؤمن المحترف المتعفف ، ويبغض السائل الملحف " .
