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.

فَإِذَا قَرَأْتَ ٱلْقُرْءَانَ فَٱسْتَعِذْ بِٱللَّهِ مِنَ ٱلشَّيْطَـٰنِ ٱلرَّجِيمِ 98 إِنَّهُۥ لَيْسَ لَهُۥ سُلْطَـٰنٌ عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَلَىٰ رَبِّهِمْ يَتَوَكَّلُونَ 99 إِنَّمَا سُلْطَـٰنُهُۥ عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ يَتَوَلَّوْنَهُۥ وَٱلَّذِينَ هُم بِهِۦ مُشْرِكُونَ 100
{98 - 100} Yaani, unapotaka kusoma kitabu cha Mwenyezi Mungu, ambacho ndicho kitabu cha heshima zaidi kitukufu zaidi, na ambacho ndani yake kuna yenye kufanya mioyo kutengenea, na elimu nyingi, basi shetani hutia bidii zaidi dhidi ya mja anapotaka kuanza kufanya mambo mema. Kwa hivyo anafanya bidii kubwa kumuondoa katika makusudi yake na maana zake. Kwa hivyo, njia ya usalama kutokana na uovu wake ni kumkimbilia Mwenyezi Mungu na kutafuta kinga yake kutokana na uovu wake. Kwa hivyo msomaji na aseme, "Ninajikinga kwa Mwenyezi Mungu kutoka na shetani aliyelaaniwa" huku akitafakari maana yake, akitemgemea Mwenyezi Mungu kwa moyo wake katika kumuondoa karibu naye, akijitahidi katika kuzuia wasiwasi wake na fikira zake mbaya, akifanya bidii kufanya sababu yenye nguvu zaidi ya kumzuia, ambayo ni kujipamba kwa pambo la imani na kumtegemea Mwenyezi Mungu. Kwa maana, Shetani "hana mamlaka juu ya wale walioamini na wakamtegemea Mola wao Mlezi" peke yake, asiyekuwa na mshirika yeyote. Kwa hivyo Mwenyezi Mungu anawazuia waumini wanaomtegemea kutokana na uovu Shetani naye anabaki hana njia yoyote ya kuwafikia. "Hakika mamlaka yake yako juu ya wale wanaomfanya kuwa rafiki yao msaidizi" na hilo huwa kwa kuacha kumfanya Mwenyezi Mungu kuwa rafiki msaidizi, na kuingia katika utii wa Shetani, na kujiunga na kikundi chake. Basi wao wenyewe ndio waliomfanya kuwa rafiki yao msaidizi, naye akawachochea mchocheo mkubwa kuingia katika maasia, na akawaongoza kwelikweli kuingia motoni.
