Al-Muminoon
سورة المؤمنونThis is the Arabic text of the Tafsīr al-Jalālayn of Jalāl al-Dīn al-Maḥallī and Jalāl al-Dīn as-Suyūṭī as the OpenITI corpus has it, from the copy of altafsir.com that the COBHUNI project of Hamburg University took: only the commentary on the verses, with no introductions, no edition and no pagination. Nobody has compared it with a printed book or a manuscript, and no scholar has reviewed it. Each passage stands beside the verses it comments on, which are the Qur’ān text of Tanzil, shown as it is there. Beneath each passage stands its English translation by Feras Hamza, as the copy of Tarteel’s Quranic Universal Library has it; nobody has compared that copy with the printed book either.

قَدْ أَفْلَحَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ 1
{ قد } للتحقيق { أفلح } فاز { المؤمنون }.
Indeed (qad is for confirmation) prosperous, victorious, are the believers,
ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ فِى صَلَاتِهِمْ خَـٰشِعُونَ 2
{ الذين هم فى صلاتهم خشعون } متواضعون.
those who in their prayers are humble,
وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ عَنِ ٱللَّغْوِ مُعْرِضُونَ 3
{ والذين هم عن اللغو } من الكلام وغيره { معرضون }.
and who shun vain talk, and other [nonsense],
وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ لِلزَّكَوٰةِ فَـٰعِلُونَ 4
{ والذين هم للزكوة فعلون } مؤدون.
and who fulfil payment of alms,
وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ لِفُرُوجِهِمْ حَـٰفِظُونَ 5
{ والذين هم لفروجهم حفظون } عن الحرام.
and who guard their private parts, against what is unlawful,
إِلَّا عَلَىٰٓ أَزْوَٰجِهِمْ أَوْ مَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَـٰنُهُمْ فَإِنَّهُمْ غَيْرُ مَلُومِينَ 6
{ إلا على أزوجهم } أي من زوجاتهم { أو ما ملكت أيمنهم } أي السراري { فإنهم غير ملومين } في إتيانهن.
except from their spouses, that is, to their spouses, and what [slaves] their right hands possess, that is, concubines, for then they are not blameworthy, in having sexual intercourse with them.
فَمَنِ ٱبْتَغَىٰ وَرَآءَ ذَٰلِكَ فَأُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْعَادُونَ 7
{ فمن ابتغى ورآء ذلك } من الزوجات والسراري كالاستمناء بيده { فأولئك هم العادون } المتجاوزن إلى ما لا يحل لهم.
But whoever seeks [anything] beyond that, [intercourse with] wives and concubines, such as masturbation: those, they are transgressors, who have overstepped [the bounds] into what is not lawful for them.
وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ لِأَمَـٰنَـٰتِهِمْ وَعَهْدِهِمْ رَٰعُونَ 8
{ والذين هم لأمنتهم } جمعا ومفردا { وعهدهم } فيما بينهم، وبين الله من صلاة وغيرها { رعون } حافظون.
And who are keepers of their trusts (may be read as plural, amānātihim, ‘their trusts’, or singular, amānatihim, ‘their trust’) and covenants, [made] between them, or between them and God, such as [the observance of] prayer and so on.
وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ عَلَىٰ صَلَوَٰتِهِمْ يُحَافِظُونَ 9
{ والذين هم على صلوتهم } جمعا ومفردا { يحافظون } يقيمونها في أوقاتها.
And who are watchful of their prayers (may be read as plural, salawātihim, ‘their prayers’, or singular, salātihim, ‘their prayer’) observing them at their appointed times.
أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْوَٰرِثُونَ 10
{ أولئك هم الورثون } لا غيرهم.
Those, they are the inheritors, and none other than them,
ٱلَّذِينَ يَرِثُونَ ٱلْفِرْدَوْسَ هُمْ فِيهَا خَـٰلِدُونَ 11
{ الذين يرثون الفردوس } هو جنة أعلى الجنان { هم فيها خلدون } في ذلك إشارة إلى المعاد ويناسبه ذكر المبدأ بعده.
who shall inherit Paradise (al-firdaws), the name of a garden, the highest of the gardens of Heaven — wherein they will abide; herein is an allusion to the Return [in the Hereafter] and so it is fitting that the Beginning [of creation] should be mentioned next:
وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا ٱلْإِنسَـٰنَ مِن سُلَـٰلَةٍ مِّن طِينٍ 12
{ و } الله { لقد خلقنا الإنسن } آدم { من سللة } هي من سللت الشيء من الشيء أي استخرجته منه وهو خلاصته { من طين } متعلق بسلالة.
And, by God, We certainly created man, Adam, from an extraction (min sulālatin, derives from [the verbal expression] salaltu’l-shay’a mina’l-shay’, ‘I drew one thing out of another’, meaning, ‘I extracted it therefrom’) his [Adam’s] substance being, of clay (min tīnin is semantically connected to sulālatin, ‘an extraction’).
