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.

أَفَلَا يَنظُرُونَ إِلَى ٱلْإِبِلِ كَيْفَ خُلِقَتْ 17 وَإِلَى ٱلسَّمَآءِ كَيْفَ رُفِعَتْ 18 وَإِلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ كَيْفَ نُصِبَتْ 19 وَإِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ كَيْفَ سُطِحَتْ 20
{17-20} Mwenyezi Mungu Mtukufu anasema, akiwahimiza wale wasiomwamini Mtume - rehema na amani za Mwenyezi Mungu zimfikishie - na watu wengine kwamba wafikirie kuhusu viumbe vya Mwenyezi Mungu vinavyoashiria upweke wake. "Je! Hawamtazami ngamia jinsi alivyoumbwa" kwa uumbaji wa ajabu na jinsi Mwenyezi Mungu alivyomtiisha kwa ajili ya waja wake na kumfanya anyenyekee kwa sababu ya manufaa mengi wanayohitaji sana? "Na milima jinsi ilivyothibitishwa" kwa umbo la kung'aa ambalo kwalo ardhi ilipata utulivu na uthabiti ili isiyumbeyumbe, na akaweka humo manufaa makubwa. "Na ardhi jinsi ilivyotandazwa" na kufanywa rahisi sana. Ili waja wakae kwa utulivu juu ya mgongo wake na waweze kulima, kupanda, kujenga juu yake na kupitia katika njia zake. Na jua kuwa kutandazwa kwake hakupingani na suala la kwamba ni ya umbo la mpira wa duara ambamo sayari zinaizunguka pande zake zote, kama ilivyothibitishwa na mapokezi ya kimaandiko, akili, hisia na kuangalia kwa macho. Kama ilivyotajwa na inavyojulikana kwa watu wengi, hasa katika nyakati hizi, ambazo watu wameweza kufika katika sehemu nyingi za dunia kwa sababu ya kile ambacho Mwenyezi Mungu amewapa cha sababu zinazoweza kuleta karibu kilicho mbali. Kwa maana kutandazwa kunapingana tu na umbo la mwili mdogo sana, ambalo ikiwa litatandazwa, basi halitakuwa na mduara unaoonekana utakaobakia. Lakini mwili wa ardhi ambao ni mkubwa sana na wenye wasaa, basi huo unaweza kuwa wa duara na tambarare, na mambo hayo mawili hayapingani kama wale walio na uzoefu wanavyojua hilo.
