Commentary on 23:79
قَوْلُهُ تَعالى: ﴿وَهو الَّذِي ذَرَأكم في الأرْضِ وإلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُونَ﴾، ذَرَأكم مَعْناهُ: خَلَقَكم، ومِنهُ قَوْلُهُ تَعالى: ﴿وَلَقَدْ ذَرَأْنا لِجَهَنَّمَ كَثِيرًا مِنَ الجِنِّ والإنْسِ﴾ الآيَةَ [الأعراف: ١٧٩] وقَوْلُهُ في الأرْضِ، أيْ: خَلَقَكم وبَثَّكم في الأرْضِ، عَنْ طَرِيقِ التَّناسُلِ، كَما قالَ تَعالى: ﴿وَبَثَّ مِنهُما رِجالًا كَثِيرًا ونِساءً﴾ الآيَةَ [النساء: ١] وقالَ: ﴿ثُمَّ إذا أنْتُمْ بَشَرٌ تَنْتَشِرُونَ﴾ [الروم: ٢٠] وقَوْلُهُ: ﴿وَإلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُونَ﴾ أيْ: إلَيْهِ وحْدَهُ، تُجْمَعُونَ يَوْمَ القِيامَةِ أحْياءً بَعْدَ البَعْثِ لِلْجَزاءِ والحِسابِ.
وَما تَضَمَّنَتْهُ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ، مِن أنَّهُ خَلَقَهم، وبَثَّهم في الأرْضِ، وأنَّهُ سَيَحْشُرُهم إلَيْهِ يَوْمَ القِيامَةِ، جاءَ مَعْناهُ في آياتٍ كَثِيرَةٍ؛ كَقَوْلِهِ في أوَّلِ هَذِهِ السُّورَةِ ﴿وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنا الإنْسانَ مِن سُلالَةٍ مِن طِينٍ﴾ إلى قَوْلِهِ: ﴿ثُمَّ إنَّكم يَوْمَ القِيامَةِ تُبْعَثُونَ﴾ [المؤمنون: ١٢ - ١٦] وذَكَرَ - جَلَّ وعَلا - أيْضًا هاتَيْنِ الآيَتَيْنِ في سُورَةِ المُلْكِ في قَوْلِهِ تَعالى: ﴿قُلْ هو الَّذِي أنْشَأكم وجَعَلَ لَكُمُ السَّمْعَ والأبْصارَ والأفْئِدَةَ قَلِيلًا ما تَشْكُرُونَ﴾ ﴿قُلْ هو الَّذِي ذَرَأكم في الأرْضِ وإلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُونَ﴾ ﴿وَيَقُولُونَ مَتى هَذا الوَعْدُ إنْ كُنْتُمْ صادِقِينَ﴾ [الملك: ٢٣ - ٢٥] والآياتُ في هَذا المَعْنى كَثِيرَةٌ.

23:75
۞ وَلَوۡ رَحِمۡنَٰهُمۡ وَكَشَفۡنَا مَا بِهِم مِّن ضُرّٖ لَّلَجُّواْ فِي طُغۡيَٰنِهِمۡ يَعۡمَهُونَ ٧٥
And even if We gave them mercy and removed what was upon them of affliction, they would persist in their transgression, wandering blindly.
23:76
وَلَقَدۡ أَخَذۡنَٰهُم بِٱلۡعَذَابِ فَمَا ٱسۡتَكَانُواْ لِرَبِّهِمۡ وَمَا يَتَضَرَّعُونَ ٧٦
And We had gripped them with suffering [as a warning], but they did not yield to their Lord, nor did they humbly supplicate, [and will continue thus]
23:77
حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا فَتَحۡنَا عَلَيۡهِم بَابٗا ذَا عَذَابٖ شَدِيدٍ إِذَا هُمۡ فِيهِ مُبۡلِسُونَ ٧٧
Until when We have opened before them a door of severe punishment, immediately they will be therein in despair.
23:78
وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِيٓ أَنشَأَ لَكُمُ ٱلسَّمۡعَ وَٱلۡأَبۡصَٰرَ وَٱلۡأَفۡـِٔدَةَۚ قَلِيلٗا مَّا تَشۡكُرُونَ ٧٨
And it is He who produced for you hearing and vision and hearts [i.e., intellect]; little are you grateful.
23:79
وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِي ذَرَأَكُمۡ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَإِلَيۡهِ تُحۡشَرُونَ ٧٩
And it is He who has multiplied you throughout the earth, and to Him you will be gathered.
23:80
وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِي يُحۡيِۦ وَيُمِيتُ وَلَهُ ٱخۡتِلَٰفُ ٱلَّيۡلِ وَٱلنَّهَارِۚ أَفَلَا تَعۡقِلُونَ ٨٠
And it is He who gives life and causes death, and His is the alternation of the night and the day. Then will you not reason?
23:81
بَلۡ قَالُواْ مِثۡلَ مَا قَالَ ٱلۡأَوَّلُونَ ٨١
Rather,1 they say like what the former peoples said.

23:82
قَالُوٓاْ أَءِذَا مِتۡنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابٗا وَعِظَٰمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَبۡعُوثُونَ ٨٢
They said, "When we have died and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected?
23:83
لَقَدۡ وُعِدۡنَا نَحۡنُ وَءَابَآؤُنَا هَٰذَا مِن قَبۡلُ إِنۡ هَٰذَآ إِلَّآ أَسَٰطِيرُ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ ٨٣
We have been promised this, we and our forefathers, before; this is not but legends of the former peoples."
23:84
قُل لِّمَنِ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ وَمَن فِيهَآ إِن كُنتُمۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ ٨٤
Say, [O Muḥammad], "To whom belongs the earth and whoever is in it, if you should know?"
23:85
سَيَقُولُونَ لِلَّهِۚ قُلۡ أَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ ٨٥
They will say, "To Allāh." Say, "Then will you not remember?"
23:86
قُلۡ مَن رَّبُّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ ٱلسَّبۡعِ وَرَبُّ ٱلۡعَرۡشِ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ ٨٦
Say, "Who is Lord of the seven heavens and Lord of the Great Throne?"
23:87
سَيَقُولُونَ لِلَّهِۚ قُلۡ أَفَلَا تَتَّقُونَ ٨٧
They will say, "[They belong] to Allāh." Say, "Then will you not fear Him?"
23:88
قُلۡ مَنۢ بِيَدِهِۦ مَلَكُوتُ كُلِّ شَيۡءٖ وَهُوَ يُجِيرُ وَلَا يُجَارُ عَلَيۡهِ إِن كُنتُمۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ ٨٨
Say, "In whose hand is the realm of all things - and He protects while none can protect against Him - if you should know?"
23:89
سَيَقُولُونَ لِلَّهِۚ قُلۡ فَأَنَّىٰ تُسۡحَرُونَ ٨٩
They will say, "[All belongs] to Allāh." Say, "Then how are you deluded?"
