Al-Anbiyaa
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.

قَالَ بَلْ فَعَلَهُۥ كَبِيرُهُمْ هَـٰذَا فَسْـَٔلُوهُمْ إِن كَانُوا۟ يَنطِقُونَ 63
{63} Na Ibrahimu akasema na watu wakitazama: "Bali ameyafanya hayo huyu mkubwa wao;" yaani, aliyavunja kwa hasira dhidi yake alipokuwa akiabudiwa pamoja naye, na alitaka ibada hiyo iwe ibada kwa sanamu kubwa tu, na neno hili kutoka kwa Ibrahimu linakusudiwa kumlazimisha mpinzani na kuanzisha hoja dhidi yake. Na kwa hili akasema: "Basi waulizeni ikiwa wanaweza kutamka," na alitaka sanamu zilizovunjika; waulizeni kwa nini yalivunjwa? Na sanamu ambayo haikuvunjwa; Muulizeni aliyavunjia nini? Ikiwa wana matamshi, watakujibu kwa hilo, na mimi na nyinyi na kila mtu tunajua kwamba halitamki, halisemi, halifaidishi, halidhuru, na hata halijisaidii kwa wale wanaotaka kulidhuru.
