Commentary on 54:5
(حكمة) خبر مبتدأ محذوف، أو بدل من (ما) بدل كل من كل، أو بدل اشتمال، أو من مزدجر (بالغة) تامة أي إن القرآن حكمة قد بلغت الغاية، ليس فيها نقص، ولا خلل، وقرىء حكمة بالنصب على أنها حال من ما، أي: حال كون ما فيه مزدجر حكمة بالغة نهاية الصواب (فما تغن النذر) ما استفهامية أي أيُّ شيء أو أيُّ إغناء تغني النذر؟ وتحصله وتكسبه؟ أو نافية، أي: لم تغن النذر شيئاًً ولم تنفع فيهم والفاء لترتيب عدم الإغناء على مجيء الحكمة البالغة، ولا ترسم الياء هنا بعد النون اتباعاً لرسم المصحف، والنذر جمع نذير بمعنى النذر، أي الأمور المنذرة لهم كأحوال الأمم السابقة وما بلغ إليهم من العذاب الذي بلغ قريشاً وتسامعوا به أو بمعنى الإنذار على أنه مصدر.
ثم أمره الله سبحانه بالإعراض عنهم فقال:
