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.

أَمِ ٱتَّخَذُوا۟ مِن دُونِهِۦٓ ءَالِهَةً ۖ قُلْ هَاتُوا۟ بُرْهَـٰنَكُمْ ۖ هَـٰذَا ذِكْرُ مَن مَّعِىَ وَذِكْرُ مَن قَبْلِى ۗ بَلْ أَكْثَرُهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ ٱلْحَقَّ ۖ فَهُم مُّعْرِضُونَ 24
{24} Kisha akarudi katika kuikashifu hali ya washirikina, na kwamba walijifanyia miungu pasi na yeye. Basi waambie, kwa kuwakemea na kuwakaripia, "Au wamejifanyia miungu mingine badala yake? Sema: Leteni ushahidi wenu" juu ya usahihi wa kile mnachofanya. Lakini hawatapata njia yoyote ya kulifikia hilo. Bali ushahidi wa kukata ulikwisha simama juu ya ubatili wake. Na ndiyo maana akasema, "Haya ni ukumbusho wa hawa walio pamoja nami, na ukumbusho wa walio kabla yangu." Yaani, Vitabu na kisheria vilikubaliana juu ya usahihi wa yale niliyowaambia juu ya ubatili wa ushirikina. Kwa hivyo hiki ni kitabu cha Mwenyezi Mungu ambacho ndani yake kuna ukumbusho wa kila kitu kwa ushahidi wake wa kiakili na wa kimaandiko. Na vitabu hivi vyote vilivyotangulia ni hoja na ushahidi juu ya ubatili wa yale niliyosema. Na ilipojulikana kwamba umekwisha wasimamia ushahidi na hoja juu ya yale wanachofanya, ikajulikana kwamba hawakuwa na hoja yoyote, kwa maana hoja ya kukata kuna uhakika kwamba haina chochote cha kuipinga. Vinginevyo, basi haingekuwa ya kukata. Lakini hata kama kuna chochote cha kuipinga, hayo yote ni fikira potovu tu ambazo haziwezi kusaidia chochote mbele ya haki. Na kauli yake, "Lakini wengi wao hawaijui haki" na walidumu juu ya hayo wayafanyayo kwa kuwaiga watangulizi wao. Wakawa wanajadili bila ya elimu yoyote wala uwongofu. Na hawana tena kutojua kwao haki si kwa sababu ya kufichikana kwake na kutokuwa kwake wazi. Bali ni kwa sababu ya kuipa kwao mgongo. Vinginevyo, ikiwa wangeigeukia hata kwa uchache tu, ingewabainikia haki kutokana na batili kwa njia bainifu na wazi sana. Na ndiyo maana akasema, "kwa hivyo wanapeana mgongo."
