Tafsir as-Sa'di on Quran 17:13
Taysir al-Karim al-Rahman by Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di (d. 1956), in the original Arabic.
وهذا إخبار عن كمال عدله أن كل إنسان يلزمه طائره في عنقه، أي: ما عمل من خير وشر يجعله الله ملازما له لا يتعداه إلى غيره، فلا يحاسب بعمل غيره ولا يحاسب غيره بعمله.{ وَنُخْرِجُ لَهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ كِتَابًا يَلْقَاهُ مَنْشُورًا } فيه ما عمله من الخير والشر حاضرا صغيره وكبيره
