Tafsir as-Sa'di on Quran 16:87
Taysir al-Karim al-Rahman by Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di (d. 1956), in the original Arabic.
فحينئذ استسلموا لله، وخضعوا لحكمه وعلموا إنهم مستحقون للعذاب.{ وَضَلَّ عَنْهُمْ مَا كَانُوا يَفْتَرُونَ } فدخلوا النار وقد امتلأت قلوبهم من مقت أنفسهم ومن حمد ربهم وأنه لم يعاقبهم إلا بما كسبوا.
