Commentary on 59:18
وقوله: ( يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللَّهَ ) يقول تعالى ذكره: يا أيها الذين صدّقوا الله ووحدوه، اتقوا الله بأداء فرائضه، واجتناب معاصيه.
وقوله: ( وَلْتَنْظُرْ نَفْسٌ مَا قَدَّمَتْ لِغَدٍ ) يقول: ولينظر أحدكم ما قدّم ليوم القيامة من الأعمال، أمن الصالحات التي تنجيه أم من السيئات التي توبقه؟ .
وبنحو الذي قلنا في ذلك قال أهل التأويل.
* ذكر من قال ذلك:
حدثنا بشر، قال: ثنا يزيد، قال: ثنا سعيد، عن قتادة، قوله: ( اتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَلْتَنْظُرْ نَفْسٌ مَا قَدَّمَتْ لِغَدٍ ) : ما زال ربكم يقرّب الساعة حتى جعلها كغد، وغدٌ يوم القيامة.
حدثنا ابن عبد الأعلى، قال: ثنا ابن ثور، عن معمر، عن قتادة ( وَلْتَنْظُرْ نَفْسٌ مَا قَدَّمَتْ لِغَدٍ ) يعني يوم القيامة.
حُدثت عن الحسين، قال: سمعت أبا معاذ يقول: ثنا عبيد، قال: سمعت الضحاك يقول في قوله: ( مَا قَدَّمَتْ لِغَدٍ ) يعني يوم القيامة.
حدثني يونس، قال: أخبرنا ابن وهب، قال، قال ابن زيد، وقرأ قول الله عزّ وجلّ( وَلْتَنْظُرْ نَفْسٌ مَا قَدَّمَتْ لِغَدٍ ) يعني يوم القيامة الخير والشرّ؛ قال: والأمس في الدنيا، وغدٌ في الآخرة، وقرأ كَأَنْ لَمْ تَغْنَ بِالأَمْسِ قال: كأن لم تكن في الدنيا.
وقوله: ( وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ ) يقول: وخافوا الله بأداء فرائضه، واجتناب معاصيه ( إِنَّ اللَّهَ خَبِيرٌ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ ) يقول: إن الله ذو خبرة وعلم بأعمالكم خيرها وشرّها، لا يخفى عليه منها شيء، وهو مجازيكم على جميعها.

59:17
فَكَانَ عَٰقِبَتَهُمَآ أَنَّهُمَا فِي ٱلنَّارِ خَٰلِدَيۡنِ فِيهَاۚ وَذَٰلِكَ جَزَٰٓؤُاْ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ ١٧
So the outcome for both of them is that they will be in the Fire, abiding eternally therein. And that is the recompense of the wrongdoers.
59:18
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ ٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَلۡتَنظُرۡ نَفۡسٞ مَّا قَدَّمَتۡ لِغَدٖۖ وَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ خَبِيرُۢ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُونَ ١٨
O you who have believed, fear Allāh. And let every soul look to what it has put forth for tomorrow - and fear Allāh. Indeed, Allāh is Aware of what you do.
59:19
وَلَا تَكُونُواْ كَٱلَّذِينَ نَسُواْ ٱللَّهَ فَأَنسَىٰهُمۡ أَنفُسَهُمۡۚ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلۡفَٰسِقُونَ ١٩
And be not like those who forgot Allāh, so He made them forget themselves. Those are the defiantly disobedient.
59:20
لَا يَسۡتَوِيٓ أَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلنَّارِ وَأَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلۡجَنَّةِۚ أَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلۡجَنَّةِ هُمُ ٱلۡفَآئِزُونَ ٢٠
Not equal are the companions of the Fire and the companions of Paradise. The companions of Paradise - they are the attainers [of success].
59:21
لَوۡ أَنزَلۡنَا هَٰذَا ٱلۡقُرۡءَانَ عَلَىٰ جَبَلٖ لَّرَأَيۡتَهُۥ خَٰشِعٗا مُّتَصَدِّعٗا مِّنۡ خَشۡيَةِ ٱللَّهِۚ وَتِلۡكَ ٱلۡأَمۡثَٰلُ نَضۡرِبُهَا لِلنَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمۡ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ ٢١
If We had sent down this Qur’ān upon a mountain, you would have seen it humbled and splitting from fear of Allāh. And these examples We present to the people that perhaps they will give thought.
59:22
هُوَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِي لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَۖ عَٰلِمُ ٱلۡغَيۡبِ وَٱلشَّهَٰدَةِۖ هُوَ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ ٢٢
He is Allāh, other than whom there is no deity, Knower of the unseen and the witnessed.1 He is the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful.
