Tafsir as-Sa'di on Quran 34:5
Taysir al-Karim al-Rahman by Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di (d. 1956), in the original Arabic.
{ وَالَّذِينَ سَعَوْا فِي آيَاتِنَا مُعَاجِزِينَ } أي: سعوا فيها كفرا بها, وتعجيزا لمن جاء بها, وتعجيزا لمن أنزلها, كما عجزوه في الإعادة بعد الموت. { أُولَئِكَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ مِنْ رِجْزٍ أَلِيمٌ } أي: مؤلم لأبدانهم وقلوبهم.
