Commentary on 21:89–91
قوله عز وجل: وَزَكَرِيَّا يعني: واذكر زكريا إِذْ نادى رَبَّهُ، يعني: إذ دعا ربه: رَبِّ لاَ تَذَرْنِي فَرْداً
، يعني: وحيداً لا وارث لي. وَأَنْتَ خَيْرُ الْوارِثِينَ، يعني: أفضل الوارثين.
قال الله عزّ وجلّ: فَاسْتَجَبْنا لَهُ وَوَهَبْنا لَهُ يَحْيى وَأَصْلَحْنا لَهُ زَوْجَهُ، يعني: رحم امرأته وكانت عقيماً لم تلد قط، سيئة الخلق، فأصلحها الله تعالى. إِنَّهُمْ كانُوا يُسارِعُونَ فِي الْخَيْراتِ، يعني: يبادرون في الطاعات، يعني: زكريا وامرأته ويحيى عليهما السلام ويقال:
الأنبياء الذين سبق ذكرهم. وَيَدْعُونَنا رَغَباً وَرَهَباً، يعني: رغبة فيما عند الله من الثواب وهو الجنة، وَرَهَباً أي فزعا من عذاب الله تعالى. وَكانُوا لَنا خاشِعِينَ، يعني: مطيعين، ويقال: متواضعين.
قوله عز وجل: وَالَّتِي أَحْصَنَتْ فَرْجَها، يعني: واذكر مريم التي حفظت نفسها من الفواحش. فَنَفَخْنا فِيها مِنْ رُوحِنا، يعني: نفخ جبريل عليه السلام في نفسها بأمرنا وَجَعَلْناها وَابْنَها يعني: لمريم وعيسى عليهما السلام آيَةً يعني عبرة لِلْعالَمِينَ أي:
لجميع الخلق. ويقال: آية ولم يقل آيتين، لأن شأنهما واحد الآية فيهما بمعنى واحد بغير أب.

إِنَّ هَٰذِهِۦٓ أُمَّتُكُمۡ أُمَّةٗ وَٰحِدَةٗ وَأَنَا۠ رَبُّكُمۡ فَٱعۡبُدُونِ ٩٢
Indeed this, your religion, is one religion,1 and I am your Lord, so worship Me.

Until when [the dam of] Gog and Magog has been opened and they, from every elevation, descend
21:97
وَٱقۡتَرَبَ ٱلۡوَعۡدُ ٱلۡحَقُّ فَإِذَا هِيَ شَٰخِصَةٌ أَبۡصَٰرُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ يَٰوَيۡلَنَا قَدۡ كُنَّا فِي غَفۡلَةٖ مِّنۡ هَٰذَا بَلۡ كُنَّا ظَٰلِمِينَ ٩٧
And [when] the true promise [i.e., the resurrection] has approached; then suddenly the eyes of those who disbelieved will be staring [in horror, while they say], "O woe to us; we had been unmindful of this; rather, we were wrongdoers."
21:98
إِنَّكُمۡ وَمَا تَعۡبُدُونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ حَصَبُ جَهَنَّمَ أَنتُمۡ لَهَا وَٰرِدُونَ ٩٨
Indeed, you [disbelievers] and what you worship other than Allāh are the firewood of Hell. You will be coming to [enter] it.

لَوۡ كَانَ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ ءَالِهَةٗ مَّا وَرَدُوهَاۖ وَكُلّٞ فِيهَا خَٰلِدُونَ ٩٩
Had these [false deities] been [actual] gods, they would not have come to it, but all are eternal therein.
21:100
لَهُمۡ فِيهَا زَفِيرٞ وَهُمۡ فِيهَا لَا يَسۡمَعُونَ ١٠٠
For them therein is heavy sighing, and they therein will not hear.

إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ سَبَقَتۡ لَهُم مِّنَّا ٱلۡحُسۡنَىٰٓ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ عَنۡهَا مُبۡعَدُونَ ١٠١
Indeed, those for whom the best [reward] has preceded from Us - they are from it far removed.
