Q 13:23 in the tafsīr of Shaykh Ibrāhīm Niasse

عَدْنࣲ وَمَن مِنَ عَلَيْهِم مِّن

Gardens of Eden which they enter, along with all who do right of their fathers and their helpmeets and their seed. The angels enter unto them from every gate — Pickthall

Shaykh Ibrāhīm Niasse (d. 1975) read the whole Qurʾān aloud at Medina Baye over fifty-six sessions between ẓuhr and ʿaṣr in Ramaḍān 1383/1964, and his students wrote those sessions down as Fī Riyāḍ al-Tafsīr. He comes back to the same āya elsewhere — in the fatwās, the Ḥikam, the poetry — decades apart. About the tafsīr →

In the printed edition: Sūrat Al-Raʿd begins at vol. 5, p. 61 (Tūnis 2022, 10 vols.)

The āya above is Warsh ʿan Nāfiʿ, the rasm of the printed edition. The root behind each underlined word comes from a Ḥafṣ ʿan ʿĀṣim corpus, realigned to this Warsh text word by word; 125 of the 6,236 āyāt differ in word count between the two riwāyāt, and those were aligned rather than assumed. A word carries no underline where the corpus supplies no root. Lexicon entries are a reading aid and carry no page reference; the edition does not cite them. Page references elsewhere on this site follow the ten-volume Tunis 2022 printing this site was transcribed from; published scholarship on this text cites the six-volume Tunis 2010 printing, whose pagination is different.

إلى اللّٰه تبارك وتعالى لتعلم أيها العبد عند الإنفاق أنك وكيل فقط. المال لله تبارك وتعالى وأنت وكيل توصله إلى محل أمره فقط، ليس لك أن تتصرف كيف تحب وكيف تشتهي وكيف ترضى، إنما أنت وكيل، فمن وكل في مال لا يتصرف إلا بأمر الوكيل وَأَنفَقُواْ مِمَّا رَزَقْنَٰهُمْ» الرزق من اللّٰه والإنفاق من العبد، إذاً لا ينفق العبد إلا مطابقا لمراد اللّٰه تبارك وتعالى و وَيَدْرَءُونَ بِالْحَسَنَةِ اِ۬لسَّيِّئَةَ) كالجهل بالحلم والأذى بالصبر (أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ لَهُمْ عُقْبَي اَ۬لدّ۪ارِۖ) العاقبة المحمودة في الدار الآخرة هي (جَنَّٰتُ عَدْنٖ يَدْخُلُونَهَا ) هم (وَمَن صَلَحَ ) آمن (مِنَ اٰبَآئِهِمْ وَأَزْوَٰجِهِمْ وَذُرِّيَّٰتِهِمْۖ ) وإن لم يعملوا بعملهم يكونون في درجاتهم تكرمة لهم. يروى أن ولي اللّٰه تبارك وتعالى إذا دخل الجنة ووصل إلى درجته يقول: أين أبي ؟ يقال: أبوك دخل الجنة ولكن لم يصل إلى مقامك لأن مقامه ومقامك ليسا واحدا، يقول:

Entries are grouped by what Shaykh Ibrāhīm is doing with the verse, then ordered oldest first inside each group, so the same words can be seen carrying different work across a career. Every entry names the witness it comes from and how well attested the attribution is. Loci that are known but not yet available are listed rather than hidden. Beyond Fī Riyāḍ al-Tafsīr, 156 āyāt have so far been indexed from his other writings — the Ḥikam, the fatwās, Kāshif al-Ilbās, theQanābīl, the Tafsīr Maʿānī cassettes. A verse with nothing under this heading has not been searched in them and found wanting; it has not been searched.
