فَٱنظُرۡ إِلَىٰٓ ءَاثَٰرِ رَحۡمَتِ ٱللَّهِ كَيۡفَ يُحۡيِ ٱلۡأَرۡضَ بَعۡدَ مَوۡتِهَآۚ إِنَّ ذَٰلِكَ لَمُحۡيِ ٱلۡمَوۡتَىٰۖ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيۡءٖ قَدِيرٞ ٥٠

Commentary on 30:50
﴿فانْظُرْ إلى آثارِ رَحْمَتِ اللَّهِ﴾ المُتَرَتِّبَةِ عَلى تَنْزِيلِ المَطَرِ مِنَ النَّباتِ والأشْجارِ وأنْواعِ الثِّمارِ، و "الفاءُ" لِلدِّلالَةِ عَلى سُرْعَةِ تَرَتُّبِها عَلَيْهِ، وقُرِئَ: (أثَرِ) (p-65)بِالتَّوْحِيدِ، وقَوْلُهُ تَعالى: ﴿كَيْفَ يُحْيِي﴾ أيِ: اللَّهُ تَعالى ﴿الأرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِها﴾ في حَيِّزِ النَّصْبِ بِنَزْعِ الخافِضِ، و "كَيْفَ" مُعَلَّقُ نَظَرَ، أيْ: فانْظُرْ إلى إحْيائِهِ البَدِيعِ لِلْأرْضِ بَعْدَ مَوْتِها، وقِيلَ: عَلى الحالِيَّةِ بِالتَّأْوِيلِ، وأيًّا ما كانَ فالمُرادُ بِالأمْرِ بِالنَّظَرِ التَّنْبِيهُ عَلى عِظَمِ قدرته تعالى، وسِعَةِ رَحْمَتِهِ مَعَ ما فِيهِ مِنَ التَّمْهِيدِ لِما يَعْقُبُهُ مِن أمْرِ البَعْثِ، وقُرِئَ: (تُحْيِي) بِالتَّأْنِيثِ عَلى الإسْنادِ إلى ضَمِيرِ الرَّحْمَةِ.
﴿إنَّ ذَلِكَ﴾ العَظِيمَ الشَّأْنِ الَّذِي ذُكِرَ بَعْضُ شُئُونِهِ ﴿لَمُحْيِي المَوْتى﴾ لَقادِرٌ عَلى إحْيائِهِمْ فَإنَّهُ إحْداثٌ لِمِثْلِ ما كانَ في مَوادِّ أبْدانِهِمْ مِنَ القُوى الحَيَوانِيَّةِ كَما أنَّ إحْياءَ الأرْضِ إحْداثٌ لِمِثْلِ ما كانَ فِيها مِنَ القُوى النَّباتِيَّةِ، أوْ لَمُحْيِيهِمُ البَتَّةَ، وقَوْلُهُ تَعالى: ﴿وَهُوَ عَلى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ﴾ تَذْيِيلٌ مُقَرِّرٌ لِمَضْمُونِ ما قَبْلَهُ، أيْ: مُبالَغٌ في القُدْرَةِ عَلى جَمِيعِ الأشْياءِ الَّتِي مِن جُمْلَتِها إحْياؤُهم لِما أنَّ نِسْبَةَ قدرته إلى الكُلِّ سَواءٌ.

قُلۡ سِيرُواْ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ فَٱنظُرُواْ كَيۡفَ كَانَ عَٰقِبَةُ ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلُۚ كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّشۡرِكِينَ ٤٢

فَأَقِمۡ وَجۡهَكَ لِلدِّينِ ٱلۡقَيِّمِ مِن قَبۡلِ أَن يَأۡتِيَ يَوۡمٞ لَّا مَرَدَّ لَهُۥ مِنَ ٱللَّهِۖ يَوۡمَئِذٖ يَصَّدَّعُونَ ٤٣
So direct your face [i.e., self] toward the correct religion before a Day comes from Allāh of which there is no repelling. That Day, they will be divided.1

And We have already sent messengers before you to their peoples, and they came to them with clear evidences; then We took retribution from those who committed crimes, and incumbent upon Us was support1 of the believers.

ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِي يُرۡسِلُ ٱلرِّيَٰحَ فَتُثِيرُ سَحَابٗا فَيَبۡسُطُهُۥ فِي ٱلسَّمَآءِ كَيۡفَ يَشَآءُ وَيَجۡعَلُهُۥ كِسَفٗا فَتَرَى ٱلۡوَدۡقَ يَخۡرُجُ مِنۡ خِلَٰلِهِۦۖ فَإِذَآ أَصَابَ بِهِۦ مَن يَشَآءُ مِنۡ عِبَادِهِۦٓ إِذَا هُمۡ يَسۡتَبۡشِرُونَ ٤٨
It is Allāh who sends the winds, and they stir the clouds and spread them in the sky however He wills, and He makes them fragments so you see the rain emerge from within them. And when He causes it to fall upon whom He wills of His servants, immediately they rejoice
30:49
وَإِن كَانُواْ مِن قَبۡلِ أَن يُنَزَّلَ عَلَيۡهِم مِّن قَبۡلِهِۦ لَمُبۡلِسِينَ ٤٩
Although they were, before it was sent down upon them - before that, in despair.
