Tafsir as-Sa'di on Quran 47:17
Taysir al-Karim al-Rahman by Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di (d. 1956), in the original Arabic.
ثم بين حال المهتدين، فقال: { وَالَّذِينَ اهْتَدَوْا } بالإيمان والانقياد، واتباع ما يرضي الله { زَادَهُمْ هُدًى } شكرا منه تعالى لهم على ذلك، { وَآتَاهُمْ تَقْوَاهُمْ } أي: وفقهم للخير، وحفظهم من الشر، فذكر للمهتدين جزاءين: العلم النافع، والعمل الصالح.
