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 ٱلْمَلَأُ مِن قَوْمِهِۦٓ إِنَّا لَنَرَىٰكَ فِى ضَلَـٰلٍ مُّبِينٍ 60
{60} Alipowaambia maneno haya, wakamjibu kwa jibu baya zaidi, na wakasema: “Waheshimiwa katika kaumu yake”; yaani, viongozi matajiri wanaofuatwa, ambao wamezoea kutakabari kwa haki na kutowanyenyekea Mitume: "Hakika sisi tunakuona uko katika upotovu ulio wazi," na fedheha ya Mwenyezi Mungu juu yao haikuwatosheleza. Wamenyenyekea Kwake, bali walikuwa wakitakabari na wakamtupia tuhuma kubwa, na wakamtia upotevu, wala hawakuridhika na upotovu tu, mpaka waufanye kuwa ni upotovu ulio wazi kwa kila mtu! Hii ni moja ya aina kubwa kabisa ya kiburi, ambayo haitumiki kwa watu dhaifu wa akili. Bali, maelezo haya yanawahusu watu wa Nuh, ambao walikuja kwenye masanamu waliyokuwa wakiyatengeneza na kuyachonga kwa mikono yao wenyewe kutoka kwa vitu visivyo na uhai. Msikie, wala msione, na wala haziwafai kitu, basi wakawaweka katika cheo cha Muumba wa mbingu, na wakawafanyia wanayostahiki, wao ni wenye uwezo wa kila aina ya ukaribu. Walikuwa na akili ambazo kwazo uthibitisho wa Mungu ungeweza kuthibitishwa dhidi yao; wangehukumiwa kuwa wendawazimu wameongoka zaidi kuliko wao, na hakika wao walikuwa waongofu na wenye akili zaidi kuliko wao.
