Tafsir as-Sa'di on Quran 37:35
Taysir al-Karim al-Rahman by Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di (d. 1956), in the original Arabic.
ثم ذكر أن إجرامهم، قد بلغ الغاية وجاوز النهاية فقال: { إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا إِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ } فدعوا إليها، وأمروا بترك إلهية ما سواه { يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ } عنها وعلى من جاء بها.
