إِنْ تَحْرِصْ عَلَىٰ هُدَاهُمْ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يَهْدِي مَنْ يُضِلُّ ۖ وَمَا لَهُمْ مِنْ نَاصِرِينَ٣٧

Tafsir as-Sa'di on Quran 16:37
Taysir al-Karim al-Rahman by Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di (d. 1956), in the original Arabic.
{ إِنْ تَحْرِصْ عَلَى هُدَاهُمْ ْ} وتبذل جهدك في ذلك { فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يَهْدِي مَنْ يُضِلُّ ْ} ولو فعل كل سبب لم يهده إلا الله، { وَمَا لَهُمْ مِنْ نَاصِرِينَ ْ} ينصرونهم من عذاب الله ويقونهم بأسه.
