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.

قَالَ قَدْ وَقَعَ عَلَيْكُم مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ رِجْسٌ وَغَضَبٌ ۖ أَتُجَـٰدِلُونَنِى فِىٓ أَسْمَآءٍ سَمَّيْتُمُوهَآ أَنتُمْ وَءَابَآؤُكُم مَّا نَزَّلَ ٱللَّهُ بِهَا مِن سُلْطَـٰنٍ ۚ فَٱنتَظِرُوٓا۟ إِنِّى مَعَكُم مِّنَ ٱلْمُنتَظِرِينَ 71
71. Kisha Hud, amani imshukie, akawaambia: "Bila ya shaka adhabu na ghadhabu zimekwisha waangukia kutoka kwa Mola wenu Mlezi." Yaani, ni lazima yatokee kwa kuwa sababu zake zimeshafanyika na wakati umefika wa maangamio. "Mnabishana nami kwa ajili ya majina tu mliyoyaita nyinyi na baba zenu." Yaani, vipi mnabishana juu ya mambo ambayo hayana ukweli, na masanamu mnayoyaita miungu, na hali hayana uungu ndani yake, wala uzito wa chembe, na "ambayo kwayo Mwenyezi Mungu hakuteremsha uthibitisho wowote"; kwani kama yangekuwa sahihi, Mwenyezi Mungu angeyateremshia mamlaka. Kwa hivyo, kutokuwepo kuteremshwa kwake ni ushahidi juu ya ubatili wake. Kwani hakuna kitu kinachotakikana wala kilichokusudiwa - hasa mambo makubwa - isipokuwa Mwenyezi Mungu amebainisha kuhusiana nayo hoja mbalimbali zinazoyaashiria na mamlaka yasiyofichikana pamoja nayo. "Basi ngojeni" adhabu itakayowapata ambayo niliwaahidi. "Hakika mimi pia ni pamoja nanyi katika wanaongoja." Na kuna tafauti baina ya kungoja huko kuwili: kungoja kwa yule anayehofia kutokea adhabu, na anayetarajia ushindi na malipo kutoka kwa Mwenyezi Mungu.
