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.

Na vilikuwepo "vimondo" ambavyo hupigwa kwavyo wanaosikiliza kwa siri, na hili ni kinyume na desturi yetu ya hapo mwanzo. Kwani tulikuwa tunaweza kuzifikia habari za mbinguni, basi "tulikuwa tukikaa humo katika baadhi ya makao ili kusikiliza" na tungekusanya kutoka katika habari za mbinguni anachotaka Mwenyezi Mungu. "Lakini sasa anayetaka kusikiliza atakuta kimondo kinamvizia" na kilichotayarishwa kumharibu na kumteketeza. Na hili lilikuwa kwa sababu ya jambo kubwa na habari kubwa. Basi wakawa na uhakika kwamba Mwenyezi Mungu alitaka kufanya tukio kubwa litokee duniani, la uzuri au ubaya. Ndiyo maana wakasema:
