When those who disbelieve had set up in their hearts zealotry, the zealotry of the Age of Ignorance, then Allah sent down His peace of reassurance upon His messenger and upon the believers and imposed on them the word of self-restraint, for they were worthy of it and meet for it. And Allah is Aware of all things — 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-Fatḥ begins at vol. 9, p. 50 (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.
Sustained interpretation of the verse as a verse — lemma, gloss, expansion.

والتعصب للباطل، جعلوه (فَأَنزَلَ أَلَّهُ سَكِينَتَهُو عَلَىٰ رَسُولِهِ، وَعَلَى الْمُومِنِينَ) فصالحوهم على أن يعودوا في القابل ولم يلحقهم من الحمية ما لحق الكفار حتى يقاتلوهم. الكفار جعلوا الحمية بأنفسهم والمسلمون أنزل اللّٰه سكينته عليهم. "ذَلِكَ بِأَنَّ اللَّهَ مَوْلَى الذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَأَنَّ الْكَفِرِينَ لاَ مَوْلِى لَهُمْ3". المؤمنون الذين لهم المولى أنزل اللّٰه سكينته على رسوله وعلى المؤمنين فتأيدوا وتقووا بذلك وانتصروا، والذين كفروا ليس عندهم مولى، فجعلوا الحمية فقط بدل السكينة، فهزموا (وَأَلْزَمَهُمْ كَلِمَةَ التَّقْوِى) ألزم اللّٰه المؤمنين هذه الكلمة:
Read in context →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.
