Tafsir as-Sa'di on Quran 34:49
Taysir al-Karim al-Rahman by Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di (d. 1956), in the original Arabic.
فيعلم بها عباده, ويبينها لهم, ولهذا قال: { قُلْ جَاءَ الْحَقُّ } أي: ظهر وبان, وصار بمنزلة الشمس, وظهر سلطانه، { وَمَا يُبْدِئُ الْبَاطِلُ وَمَا يُعِيدُ } أي: اضمحل وبطل أمره, وذهب سلطانه, فلا يبدئ ولا يعيد.
