Tafsir as-Sa'di on Quran 92:1
Taysir al-Karim al-Rahman by Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di (d. 1956), in the original Arabic.
هذا قسم من الله بالزمان الذي تقع فيه أفعال العباد على تفاوت أحوالهم، فقال: { وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَى } [أي: يعم] الخلق بظلامه، فيسكن كل إلى مأواه ومسكنه، ويستريح العباد من الكد والتعب.
