Commentary on 29:34–38
القَوْلُ في تَأْوِيلِ قَوْلِهِ تَعالى:
[٣٤ - ٣٨] ﴿إنّا مُنْـزِلُونَ عَلى أهْلِ هَذِهِ القَرْيَةِ رِجْزًا مِنَ السَّماءِ بِما كانُوا يَفْسُقُونَ﴾ ﴿ولَقَدْ تَرَكْنا مِنها آيَةً بَيِّنَةً لِقَوْمٍ يَعْقِلُونَ﴾ [العنكبوت: ٣٥] ﴿وإلى مَدْيَنَ أخاهم شُعَيْبًا فَقالَ يا قَوْمِ اعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ وارْجُوا اليَوْمَ الآخِرَ ولا تَعْثَوْا في الأرْضِ مُفْسِدِينَ﴾ [العنكبوت: ٣٦] ﴿فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَأخَذَتْهُمُ الرَّجْفَةُ فَأصْبَحُوا في دارِهِمْ جاثِمِينَ﴾ [العنكبوت: ٣٧] ﴿وعادًا وثَمُودَ وقَدْ تَبَيَّنَ لَكم مِن مَساكِنِهِمْ وزَيَّنَ لَهُمُ الشَّيْطانُ أعْمالَهم فَصَدَّهم عَنِ السَّبِيلِ وكانُوا مُسْتَبْصِرِينَ﴾ [العنكبوت: ٣٨] .
﴿إنّا مُنْـزِلُونَ عَلى أهْلِ هَذِهِ القَرْيَةِ رِجْزًا مِنَ السَّماءِ﴾ أيْ: عَذابًا عَظِيمًا مِن جِهَتِها: ﴿بِما كانُوا يَفْسُقُونَ﴾ ﴿ولَقَدْ تَرَكْنا مِنها آيَةً بَيِّنَةً لِقَوْمٍ يَعْقِلُونَ﴾ [العنكبوت: ٣٥] يَعْنِي قِصَّتَها العَجِيبَةَ، أوْ آثارَها الخَرِبَةَ: ﴿وإلى مَدْيَنَ أخاهم شُعَيْبًا فَقالَ يا قَوْمِ اعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ وارْجُوا اليَوْمَ الآخِرَ﴾ [العنكبوت: ٣٦] أيْ: تَوَقَّعُوهُ، وما سَيَقَعُ فِيهِ مِن فُنُونِ الأهْوالِ: ﴿ولا تَعْثَوْا في الأرْضِ مُفْسِدِينَ﴾ [العنكبوت: ٣٦] أيْ: بِالبَغْيِ عَلى أهْلِها، كَنَقْصِ المِكْيالِ والمِيزانِ، وقَطْعِ الطَّرِيقِ عَلى النّاسِ، فَإنَّ عاقِبَةَ ذَلِكَ الدَّمارُ: ﴿فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَأخَذَتْهُمُ الرَّجْفَةُ﴾ [العنكبوت: ٣٧] أيِ: الصَّيْحَةُ الَّتِي هي مَنشَأُ الزَّلْزَلَةِ الشَّدِيدَةِ: ﴿فَأصْبَحُوا في دارِهِمْ﴾ [العنكبوت: ٣٧] أيْ: بَلَدِهِمْ أوْ مَنازِلِهِمْ: ﴿جاثِمِينَ﴾ [العنكبوت: ٣٧] أيْ: هَلْكى مَيِّتِينَ: ﴿وعادًا وثَمُودَ وقَدْ تَبَيَّنَ لَكم مِن مَساكِنِهِمْ وزَيَّنَ لَهُمُ الشَّيْطانُ أعْمالَهم فَصَدَّهم عَنِ السَّبِيلِ وكانُوا مُسْتَبْصِرِينَ﴾ [العنكبوت: ٣٨] أيْ: عُقَلاءَ مُتَمَكِّنِينَ مِنَ النَّظَرِ والِافْتِكارِ بِواسِطَةِ الرُّسُلِ عَلَيْهِمُ السَّلامُ، فَإنَّهم أوْضَحُوا السُّبُلَ، فَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهم في ذَلِكَ عُذْرٌ، ولَكِنَّهم لَمْ يَفْعَلُوا، عِنادًا وكِبْرًا.

29:31
وَلَمَّا جَآءَتۡ رُسُلُنَآ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ بِٱلۡبُشۡرَىٰ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّا مُهۡلِكُوٓاْ أَهۡلِ هَٰذِهِ ٱلۡقَرۡيَةِۖ إِنَّ أَهۡلَهَا كَانُواْ ظَٰلِمِينَ ٣١
And when Our messengers [i.e., angels] came to Abraham with the good tidings,1 they said, "Indeed, we will destroy the people of that [i.e., Lot's] city. Indeed, its people have been wrongdoers."

29:32
قَالَ إِنَّ فِيهَا لُوطٗاۚ قَالُواْ نَحۡنُ أَعۡلَمُ بِمَن فِيهَاۖ لَنُنَجِّيَنَّهُۥ وَأَهۡلَهُۥٓ إِلَّا ٱمۡرَأَتَهُۥ كَانَتۡ مِنَ ٱلۡغَٰبِرِينَ ٣٢
[Abraham] said, "Indeed, within it is Lot." They said, "We are more knowing of who is within it. We will surely save him and his family, except his wife. She is to be of those who remain behind."
29:33
وَلَمَّآ أَن جَآءَتۡ رُسُلُنَا لُوطٗا سِيٓءَ بِهِمۡ وَضَاقَ بِهِمۡ ذَرۡعٗاۖ وَقَالُواْ لَا تَخَفۡ وَلَا تَحۡزَنۡ إِنَّا مُنَجُّوكَ وَأَهۡلَكَ إِلَّا ٱمۡرَأَتَكَ كَانَتۡ مِنَ ٱلۡغَٰبِرِينَ ٣٣
And when Our messengers [i.e., angels] came to Lot, he was distressed for them and felt for them great discomfort.1 They said, "Fear not, nor grieve. Indeed, we will save you and your family, except your wife; she is to be of those who remain behind.

29:34
إِنَّا مُنزِلُونَ عَلَىٰٓ أَهۡلِ هَٰذِهِ ٱلۡقَرۡيَةِ رِجۡزٗا مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ بِمَا كَانُواْ يَفۡسُقُونَ ٣٤
Indeed, we will bring down on the people of this city punishment from the sky because they have been defiantly disobedient."
29:35
وَلَقَد تَّرَكۡنَا مِنۡهَآ ءَايَةَۢ بَيِّنَةٗ لِّقَوۡمٖ يَعۡقِلُونَ ٣٥
And We have certainly left of it a sign as clear evidence for a people who use reason.
29:36
وَإِلَىٰ مَدۡيَنَ أَخَاهُمۡ شُعَيۡبٗا فَقَالَ يَٰقَوۡمِ ٱعۡبُدُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَٱرۡجُواْ ٱلۡيَوۡمَ ٱلۡأٓخِرَ وَلَا تَعۡثَوۡاْ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ مُفۡسِدِينَ ٣٦
And to Madyan [We sent] their brother Shuʿayb, and he said, "O my people, worship Allāh and expect the Last Day and do not commit abuse on the earth, spreading corruption."
29:37
فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَأَخَذَتۡهُمُ ٱلرَّجۡفَةُ فَأَصۡبَحُواْ فِي دَارِهِمۡ جَٰثِمِينَ ٣٧
But they denied him, so the earthquake seized them, and they became within their home [corpses] fallen prone.
29:38
وَعَادٗا وَثَمُودَاْ وَقَد تَّبَيَّنَ لَكُم مِّن مَّسَٰكِنِهِمۡۖ وَزَيَّنَ لَهُمُ ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنُ أَعۡمَٰلَهُمۡ فَصَدَّهُمۡ عَنِ ٱلسَّبِيلِ وَكَانُواْ مُسۡتَبۡصِرِينَ ٣٨
And [We destroyed] ʿAad and Thamūd, and it has become clear to you from their [ruined] dwellings. And Satan had made pleasing to them their deeds and averted them from the path, and they were endowed with perception.
