Commentary on 37:35
﴿إنهم كانوا إذا قيل لهم لا إله إلا الله يستكبرون﴾: ﴿إن﴾ حرف ناسخ، و﴿هم﴾ اسمها، و﴿كان﴾ فعل ماض ناقص ناسخ، والواو اسمها، وجملة ﴿كانوا﴾ خبر إن، و﴿إذا﴾ ظرف مستقبل متضمن معنى الشرط، وقيل فعل ماض مبني لما لم يسم فاعله، ونائب الفاعل مستتر تقديره: هو، وجملة ﴿قيل﴾ في محل جر بالإضافة، و﴿لهم﴾ جار ومجرور متعلقان بـ﴿قيل﴾، و﴿لا﴾ نافية للجنس، و﴿إله﴾ اسمها المبني على الفتح، و﴿إلا﴾ أداة حصر، و﴿الله﴾ بدل من محل ﴿لا﴾ واسمها، وجملة ﴿لا إله إلا الله﴾ مقول قول محذوف، أي: قولوا: لا إله إلا الله، و﴿يستكبرون﴾ فعل مضارع مرفوع، والواو فاعل، وجملة ﴿يستكبرون﴾ خبر ﴿كانوا﴾، وجواب ﴿إذا﴾ محذوف دل عليه ما قبله.
