حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرُ بْنُ سَهْلٍ، ثنا عَبْدُ الْغَنِيِّ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الثَّقَفِيُّ، ثنا مُوسَى بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الصَّنْعَانِيُّ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، وَعَنْ مُقَاتِلٍ، عَنِ الضَّحَّاكِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ: {يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَتَّبِعُوا خُطُوَاتِ الشَّيْطَانِ} [النور: ٢١] ، «يُرِيدُ زَلَّاتِ الشَّيْطَانِ» ، {فَإِنَّهُ يَأْمُرُ بِالْفَحْشَاءِ وَالْمُنْكَرِ} [النور: ٢١] «يُرِيدُ بِالْفَحْشَاءِ عِصْيَانَ اللهِ، وَالْمُنْكَرِ كُلَّ مَا يَكْرَهُ اللهُ» ، {وَلَوْلَا فَضْلُ اللهِ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَتُهُ مَا زَكَا مِنْكُمْ مِنْ أَحَدٍ أَبَدًا} [النور: ٢١] «يُرِيدُ مَا قَبِلْتُ تَوْبَةَ أَحَدٍ مِنْكُمْ أَبَدًا» ، {وَلَكِنَّ اللهَ يُزَكِّي مَنْ يَشَاءُ} [النور: ٢١] «يُرِيدُ فَقَدْ شِئْتُ أَنْ أَتُوبَ عَلَيْكُمْ» ، {وَاللهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ} [النور: ٢١] «لِقَوْلِكُمْ عَلِيمٌ بِمَا فِي أَنْفُسِكُمْ مِنَ النَّدَامَةِ وَالتَّوْبَةِ»
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: "O you who believe, do not follow the footsteps of Satan" [Surah al-Nur: 21]: what is meant is the slips of Satan. "For indeed he commands indecency and evil" [Surah al-Nur: 21]: by "indecency" is meant disobedience to Allah, and by "evil" everything that Allah dislikes. "And had it not been for the favour of Allah upon you and His mercy, not one of you would ever have been purified" [Surah al-Nur: 21]: that is, I would never have accepted the repentance of any of you. "But Allah purifies whom He wills" [Surah al-Nur: 21]: that is, I willed to accept your repentance. "And Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing" [Surah al-Nur: 21]: Hearing your words, Knowing the remorse and repentance in your hearts.
حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ أَبِي الطَّاهِرِ بْنِ السَّرْحِ، ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، ثنا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ: " {يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَتَّبِعُوا خُطُوَاتِ الشَّيْطَانِ} [النور: ٢١] ، يَعْنِي: «تَزْيِينَ الشَّيْطَانِ حَتَّى قَذَفَ عَائِشَةَ» ، {وَمَنْ يَتَّبِعْ خُطُوَاتِ الشَّيْطَانِ} [النور: ٢١] ، يَعْنِي: «تَزْيِينَ الشَّيْطَانِ» ، {فَإِنَّهُ يَأْمُرُ بِالْفَحْشَاءِ} [النور: ٢١] ، يَعْنِي: «بِالْمَعَاصِيِ» {وَالْمُنْكَرِ} [النحل: ٩٠] «مَا لَا يُعْرَفُ، يَعْنِي مِثْلَ مَا قِيلَ لِعَائِشَةَ» ، {وَلَوْلَا فَضْلُ اللهِ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَتُهُ} [النور: ٢١] ، يَعْنِي: «نِعْمَتَهُ» ، {مَا زَكَا مِنْكُمْ مِنْ أَحَدٍ} [النور: ٢١] ، يَعْنِي: «مَا صَلُحَ مِنْكُمْ مِنْ أَحَدٍ أَبَدًا» ، {وَلَكِنَّ اللهَ يُزَكِّي مَنْ يَشَاءُ} [النور: ٢١] ، يَعْنِي: «يُصْلِحُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ»
Sa'id bin Jubayr said: "O you who believe, do not follow the footsteps of Satan" [Surah al-Nur: 21]: that is, the embellishment of Satan, until he got Sayyidah Aishah slandered. "And whoever follows the footsteps of Satan" [Surah al-Nur: 21]: that is, the embellishment of Satan, "then indeed he commands indecency" [Surah al-Nur: 21]: that is, acts of disobedience, "and evil": that is, something that is not recognised (as right), meaning the like of what was said about Sayyidah Aishah. "And had it not been for the favour of Allah upon you and His mercy" [Surah al-Nur: 21]: that is, His blessing, "not one of you would ever have been purified" [Surah al-Nur: 21]: that is, not one of you would ever have been made upright. "But Allah purifies whom He wills" [Surah al-Nur: 21]: that is, He makes upright whom He wills.
