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.

ٱلزَّانِيَةُ وَٱلزَّانِى فَٱجْلِدُوا۟ كُلَّ وَٰحِدٍ مِّنْهُمَا مِا۟ئَةَ جَلْدَةٍ ۖ وَلَا تَأْخُذْكُم بِهِمَا رَأْفَةٌ فِى دِينِ ٱللَّهِ إِن كُنتُمْ تُؤْمِنُونَ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْـَٔاخِرِ ۖ وَلْيَشْهَدْ عَذَابَهُمَا طَآئِفَةٌ مِّنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ 2
Kisha akaendelea kubainisha hukumu hizo zilizoashiriwa juu yake, akasema:
{2} Hukumu hii ni kwa mzinifu mwanamume na mzinifu mwanamke ambao ni mabikira. Kwamba hao wawili watapigwa mijeledi mia kila mmoja. Ama yule ambaye si bikira, basi hakika imejulisha Sunnah sahihi inayojulikana sana kwamba adhabu yake ni kupigwa mawe hadi kufa. Ametukataza Mwenyezi Mungu aliyetukuka kuwahurumia katika dini ya Mwenyezi Mungu, ambapo huruma huo utatuzuia kusimamisha adhabu juu yao hao wawili, sawa iwe ni huruma ya kimaumbile, au kwa ajili ya ukoo, urafiki, au mengineyo, na kwamba imani inalazimu kutokuwepo huruma hii inayotuzuia kutekeleza agizo la Mwenyezi Mungu. Basi hakika rehema yake ni katika kusimamisha adhabu juu yake. Basi sisi hata tukimrehemu katika kupitiwa na qadari juu yake, basi tusingemrehemu katika upande huu. Na Mwenyezi Mungu Mtukufu akaamrisha kwamba adhabu ya wazinifu ihudhuriwe na "kundi." Yaani, kundi la waumini, ili awe maarufu kwa adhabu aliyopewa na apate kutokana na hilo fedheha na kurudi nyuma katika kosa hilo. Na washuhudie adhabu hiyo kwa vitendo, kwani hakika kushuhudia hukumu za kisheria kwa vitendo ndiko kunakoimarisha elimu, kuleta utulivu wa ufahamu, na kumleta mtu kuwa karibu na kupata ukweli. Haiongezeki ndani yake wala haipungui. Na Mwenyezi Mungu ndiye ajuaye zaidi.
