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.

حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا جَآءَنَا قَالَ يَـٰلَيْتَ بَيْنِى وَبَيْنَكَ بُعْدَ ٱلْمَشْرِقَيْنِ فَبِئْسَ ٱلْقَرِينُ 38
{38} Hii ndiyo hali ya mtu huyu anayeupa mgongo ukumbusho wa Mwenyezi Mungu duniani pamoja na mwenziwe, ambayo ni upotofu, ukengeufu na kupendua uhakika wa mambo. Na ama hali yake atakapomjia Mola wake Mlezi akhera, basi ovu ya hali zote ambayo ni majuto na huzuni kubwa ambayo aliyepatwa nayo haiwezekani kumrekebisha wala hawezi kumkataa mwenzake huyo. Ndiyo maana akasema Mtukufu, "Hata atakapotujia atasema: 'Laiti ungelikuweko baina yangu na wewe kama umbali baina ya mashariki na magharibi. Rafiki mwovu mno wewe!'" Kama ilivyo katika kauli ya Mwenyezi Mungu Mtukufu: “Na siku ambayo mwenye kudhulumu atajiuma mikono yake, na huku anasema: 'Laiti ningelishika njia pamoja na Mtume! Ee, ole wangu! Laiti nisingelimfanya fulani kuwa rafiki mwandani!'"
