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.

ٱللَّهُ يَتَوَفَّى ٱلْأَنفُسَ حِينَ مَوْتِهَا وَٱلَّتِى لَمْ تَمُتْ فِى مَنَامِهَا ۖ فَيُمْسِكُ ٱلَّتِى قَضَىٰ عَلَيْهَا ٱلْمَوْتَ وَيُرْسِلُ ٱلْأُخْرَىٰٓ إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى ۚ إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَـَٔايَـٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ 42
{42} Mwenyezi Mungu Mtukufu anajulisha kwamba Yeye peke yake ndiye anayewaendesha waja wake katika hali zao za kuwa macho na wanapokuwa usingizini, na katika hali zao za uhai na kifo. Akasema: "Mwenyezi Mungu huzipokea roho zinapokufa" kifo kikubwa kabisa, kifo cha mauti. Kujulisha kwake kuwa Yeye ndiye huchukua roho, na kwamba Yeye ndiye hufanya hivyo, hakupingani na uhakika kuwa ameweka Malaika wa mauti na wasaidizi wake kufanya hivyo. Kama Mwenyezi Mungu Mtukufu alivyosema: "Sema: Atakufisheni Malaika wa mauti aliyewakilishwa juu yenu." Pia akasema: "Mpaka mmoja wenu yakimjia mauti wajumbe wetu humfisha, nao hawafanyi kupuuza chochote." Kwa sababu Mwenyezi Mungu Mtukufu hujifungamanishia vitu kwa kuzingatia kuwa Yeye ndiye Muumbaji na Mwendeshaji mambo, na pia huvifungamanisha na visababu vyake kwa kuzingatia kwamba ni katika ada yake na hekima yake kwamba aliliwekea kila jambo visababu vyake. Na kauli yake: "Na zile zisizokufa" kifo kidogo "wakati wa kulala kwake," yaani, anaikamata nafsi ambayo haikufa katika usingizi wake. Lakini "huzishika zilizohukumiwa kufa" kati ya nafsi hizi zote, ambazo ni nafsi za wale waliokufa au za wale walioandikiwa kufia kwenye usingizi. "Na huzirudisha nyingine mpaka ufike wakati uliowekwa." "Hakika katika hayo bila ya shaka zipo Ishara kwa watu wanaofikiri" juu ya ukamilifu wa uwezo wake na kuwafufua wafu baada ya kufa kwao. Katika aya hii, kuna ushahidi kwamba roho na nafsi ni mwili ambao unajisimamia kivyake wala hazifanani na mwili, na kwamba zimeumbwa na zinaendeshwa na Mwenyezi Mungu kwa kuzifisha, kuzishikilia, kuziachilia, na kwamba roho za walio hai na wafu zinakutana kaburini kuzungumza, kisha Mwenyezi Mungu anaziachilia roho za waliohai na kuzishikilia roho za wafu.
