Al-An'aam
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.

وَإِن كَانَ كَبُرَ عَلَيْكَ إِعْرَاضُهُمْ فَإِنِ ٱسْتَطَعْتَ أَن تَبْتَغِىَ نَفَقًا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ أَوْ سُلَّمًا فِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ فَتَأْتِيَهُم بِـَٔايَةٍ ۚ وَلَوْ شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ لَجَمَعَهُمْ عَلَى ٱلْهُدَىٰ ۚ فَلَا تَكُونَنَّ مِنَ ٱلْجَـٰهِلِينَ 35
{35} "Na ikiwa ni makubwa kwako huku kupeana kwao mgongo." Yaani, ikiwa ni vigumu kwako kwa sababu ya hima yako kubwa juu yao, na upendo wako kuona wakiamini, basi jitahidi katika hilo. Lakini si katika uwezo wako kumwongoa yule ambaye Mwenyezi Mungu hakutaka kumwongoa. "Basi kama unaweza kutafuta njia ya chini kwa chini ya ardhi, au ngazi kwendea mbinguni ili uwaletee Ishara." Yaani, fanya hivyo; kwani haitawanufaisha chochote. Na katika hili kuna kukata matumaini yake katika kuongoa mfano wa hawa wakaidi. "Na lau Mwenyezi Mungu angelitaka, angeliwakusanya juu ya uwongofu." Lakini hekima yake Yeye Mtukufu ilitaka kwamba wabaki katika upotofu. "Basi kamwe usiwe miongoni mwa wajinga;" wale wasiojua uhakika wa mambo na wala hawayaingizi katika nafasi zake.
