This is a translation of Tafsīr as-Saʿdī as IslamHouse.com publishes it at saadi.islamenc.com, read from that site’s pages. The site does not say who translated it or which printed edition it follows, and states no terms for taking its text, so the right to show it is not verified. Nobody has compared it with a printed book, 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; a verse the site gives no commentary of its own stands with the passage before it, and the index names each such verse. Sabīl did not write or translate any of it.

أَنزَلَ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءً فَسَالَتْ أَوْدِيَةٌۢ بِقَدَرِهَا فَٱحْتَمَلَ ٱلسَّيْلُ زَبَدًا رَّابِيًا ۚ وَمِمَّا يُوقِدُونَ عَلَيْهِ فِى ٱلنَّارِ ٱبْتِغَآءَ حِلْيَةٍ أَوْ مَتَـٰعٍ زَبَدٌ مِّثْلُهُۥ ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ يَضْرِبُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْحَقَّ وَٱلْبَـٰطِلَ ۚ فَأَمَّا ٱلزَّبَدُ فَيَذْهَبُ جُفَآءً ۖ وَأَمَّا مَا يَنفَعُ ٱلنَّاسَ فَيَمْكُثُ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ يَضْرِبُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْأَمْثَالَ 17
{17} Mwenyezi Mungu akaufananisha uwongofu ulioteremshwa kwa Mtume wake kwa ajili ya uzima wa nyoyo na nafsi na maji aliyoyateremsha kwa ajili ya uhai wa mizimu. Alifananisha manufaa makubwa ya umma katika mwongozo ambao watu wanalazimishwa kupata na manufaa ya umma katika mvua. Alizifananisha nyoyo zinazobeba mwongozo na utofauti wake na mabonde ambamo mito inapita ndani yake. Bonde kubwa linalohifadhi maji mengi ni sawa na moyo mkubwa ulio na maarifa mengi, na bonde dogo linaloshika maji kidogo ni sawa na moyo mdogo unaoshika maarifa kidogo... na kadhalika. Amefananisha matamanio na mashaka yaliyomo ndani ya nyoyo pale ukweli unapowafikia na povu litokalo juu ya maji na juu ya vito vinavyowashwa moto vinavyokusudiwa kutakaswa na kutupwa, na kwamba vinabaki juu ya maji yanayoelea na kuyasumbua mpaka yanatoweka na kutoweka, na kilichobakia ni manufaa kwa watu wa maji safi na vito safi. Kadhalika, mashaka na matamanio, moyo huendelea kuwachukia na kujitahidi dhidi yao kwa hoja za kweli na madhubuti, mpaka yatoweke na kutoweka, na moyo ukabaki kuwa msafi na safi, usiokuwa na chochote ndani yake isipokuwa yale yanayowanufaisha watu kutokana na elimu ya haki, kuipendelea, na kuitamani. Uongo hutoweka na kuharibiwa na ukweli. "Hakika uongo umetoweka, na akasema hapa: "Hivi ndivyo Mwenyezi Mungu anavyopiga mifano" ili ukweli ubainike na uongo na uwongofu na upotofu.
