Commentary on 44:26
( وَمَقَامٍ كَرِيمٍ ) يقول: وموضع كانوا يقومونه شريف كريم.
ثم اختلف أهل التأويل في معنى وصف الله ذلك المقام بالكرم, فقال بعضهم: وصفه بذلك لشرفه, وذلك أنه مَقام الملوك والأمراء, قالوا: وإنما أريد به المنابر.
* ذكر من قال ذلك:
حدثني جعفر بن ابنة إسحاق الأزرق, قال: ثنا سعيد بن محمد الثقفي, قال: ثنا إسماعيل بن إبراهيم بن مُهاجر, عن أبيه, عن مجاهد, في قوله ( وَمَقَامٍ كَرِيمٍ ) قال: المنابر.
حدثني زكريا بن يحيى بن أبي زائدة, قال: ثنا عبد الله بن داود الواسطي, قال: ثنا شريك، عن سالم الأفطس, عن سعيد بن جُبير, في قوله ( وَمَقَامٍ كَرِيمٍ ) قال: المنابر.
وقال آخرون: وصف ذلك المقام بالكرم لحسنه وبهجته.
* ذكر من قال ذلك:
حدثنا بشر, قال: ثنا يزيد, قال: ثنا سعيد, عن قتادة, قوله ( وَمَقَامٍ كَرِيمٍ ) : أي حسن.
