Tafsir as-Sa'di on Quran 102:5
Taysir al-Karim al-Rahman by Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di (d. 1956), in the original Arabic. This commentary explains ayahs 102:3-5 together.
{ كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ كَلَّا لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عِلْمَ الْيَقِينِ } أي: لو تعلمون ما أمامكم علمًا يصل إلى القلوب، لما ألهاكم التكاثر، ولبادرتم إلى الأعمال الصالحة.
