Commentary on 21:84
٨٤ - ﴿فَٱسۡتَجَبۡنَا لَهُۥ﴾ نداءه ودعاءه ربّه ﴿فَكَشَفۡنَا مَا بِهِۦ مِن ضُرّٖۖ ﴾ أي: من شدّة مرض ، بأن شفاه الله منه وعافاه ، وذلك في قوله تعالى:(اركض برجلك هذا مغتسل بارد وشراب)ص(٤٢).﴿وَءَاتَيۡنَٰهُ أَهۡلَهُۥ﴾ أي : رددنا عليه أهله وماله .وعن ابن عباس : رُدّوا عليه بأعيانهم.﴿وَمِثۡلَهُم مَّعَهُمۡ﴾ أي: ومثل أهله وماله معهم ، زيادة في العطاء، وعاجل الثواب ، أي : أعطاه مثل أهله عدداً، مع زيادة مِثْلٍ آخر ، فوُلد له من الأولاد ضِعف ما كان ﴿رَحۡمَةٗ مِّنۡ عِندِنَا﴾ به ، حيث صبر ورضي وشكر، فردّ عليه أهله وماله، ومثلهم معهم ﴿وَذِكۡرَىٰ لِلۡعَٰبِدِينَ﴾ أي: جعلناه عبرة و موعظة للعابدين الذين ينتفعون بالصبر على مقدورات الله ، فأيوب عليه السلام قدوة لأهل البلاء في الصبر على قضاء الله وقدره، والرضى على ابتلائه واختباره لعباده بما يشاء ، أي : فليصبروا كما صبر ، فيثابوا .وفي الحديث عند ابن أبي حاتم عن أبي هريرة عن النبي ﷺ قال: «لما عافى الله أيوب ، أمطر عليه جراداً من ذهب ، فجعل يأخذ منه بيده، ويجعله في ثوبه، قال: فقيل له : يا أيوب ، أما تشبع ؟ قال: ياربّ ، ومن يشبع من رحمتك» وأصله في الصحيحين بلفظ : «قال: يا ربِّ لا غنى بي عن بركتك» .

وَمِنَ ٱلشَّيَٰطِينِ مَن يَغُوصُونَ لَهُۥ وَيَعۡمَلُونَ عَمَلٗا دُونَ ذَٰلِكَۖ وَكُنَّا لَهُمۡ حَٰفِظِينَ ٨٢
And of the devils [i.e., jinn] were those who dived for him and did work other than that. And We were of them a guardian.1
