Commentary on 26:21
قوله: ﴿فَفَرَرْتُ مِنْكُمْ لَمَّا خِفْتُكُمْ﴾ أي ذهبت [[في "تنوير المقباس" 307: (فهربت).]] من بينكم حذرًا على نفسىِ.
قال مقاتل: ﴿فَفَرَرْتُ مِنْكُمْ﴾ إلى مدين [[مدين. غير واضحة في نسخة (ج).]] لما خفتكم أن تقتلوني بمن قتلته [["تفسير مقاتل" 48 ب.]]. ﴿فَوَهَبَ لِي رَبِّي حُكْمًا﴾ يعني: نبوة. قاله ابن عباس، والسدي [[أخرجه ابن جرير 19/ 67، وابن أبي حاتم 8/ 2755، عن السدي. واقتصر عليه الهواري 3/ 224. وفي "تنوير المقباس" 307: (فهماً وعلماً ونبوة). ونسبه السمرقندي 2/ 472، للكلبي. وذكره في "الوسيط" 3/ 352، ولم ينسبه. وكذا البغوي 6/ 115، وابن عطية 11/ 98. ونسبه ابن الجوزي 6/ 120، لابن السائب.]]. وقال مقاتل: يعني العلم والفهم [["تفسير مقاتل" 48 ب. واستظهره الشنقيطي 6/ 374.]]. وقال ابن زيد: عقلاً. وقال الفراء: التوراة [["معاني القرآن" للفراء 2/ 279. وبه قال الزجاج، في "معاني القرآن" 4/ 86.]]. وهو بعيد؛ لأن التوراة أوتي [[هكذا في النسخ الثلاث؛ والأصوب: أوتيها.]] بعد غرق فرعون.
