Tafsir as-Sa'di on Quran 54:40
Taysir al-Karim al-Rahman by Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di (d. 1956), in the original Arabic. This commentary explains ayahs 54:38-40 together.
{ وَلَقَدْ صَبَّحَهُمْ بُكْرَةً عَذَابٌ مُسْتَقِرٌّ } قلب الله عليهم ديارهم، وجعل أسفلها أعلاها، وتتبعهم بحجارة من سجيل منضود، مسومة عند ربك للمسرفين، ونجى الله لوطا وأهله من الكرب العظيم، جزاء لهم على شكرهم لربهم، وعبادته وحده لا شريك له.
