This is a translation of Tafsīr as-Saʿdī as IslamHouse.com publishes it at saadi.islamenc.com, read from that site’s pages. The site does not say who translated it or which printed edition it follows, and states no terms for taking its text, so the right to show it is not verified. Nobody has compared it with a printed book, and no scholar has reviewed it. Each passage stands beside the verses it comments on, which are the Qur’ān text of Tanzil, shown as it is there; a verse the site gives no commentary of its own stands with the passage before it, and the index names each such verse. Sabīl did not write or translate any of it.

وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا رُسُلًا مِّن قَبْلِكَ وَجَعَلْنَا لَهُمْ أَزْوَٰجًا وَذُرِّيَّةً ۚ وَمَا كَانَ لِرَسُولٍ أَن يَأْتِىَ بِـَٔايَةٍ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِ ٱللَّهِ ۗ لِكُلِّ أَجَلٍ كِتَابٌ 38
{38} Yaani, wewe si mtume wa kwanza kutumwa kwa watu hadi waushangae utume wako. Hakika "tulikwisha watuma Mitume kabla yako, na tukawafanya wawe na wake na dhuria." Basi wasikutie doa adui zako ikiwa una wake na dhuria kama walivyokuwa ndugu zako miongoni mwa Mitume. Basi ni kwa kitu gani wanakukashifu kwa hayo, ilhali wanajua kwamba Mitume waliokuwa kabla yako walikuwa hivyo, isipokuwa tu kwa ajili ya kuepeana kwao mgongo kuovu na matamanio yao. Na wakikuomba ishara wanayoipendekeza wao, basi wewe huna chochote katika jambo hilo. Kwa maana, "haikuwa kwa Mtume yeyote kuleta ishara isipokuwa kwa idhini ya Mwenyezi Mungu" Na Mwenyezi Mungu haliruhusu hilo isipokuwa kwa wakati wake alioupitisha na kuuandika. "Kila kipindi kina hukumu yake iliyoandikwa" hakiitangulii hukumu hiyo iliyoandikwa wala hakichelewi zaidi yake. Kwa hivyo kuziharakisha kwao ishara au adhabu hakufanyi Mwenyezi Mungu kutanguliza au kuchelewesha alichoandika, pamoja na kwamba Yeye Mtukufu hufanya atakavyo.
