Tafsir

Scholarly commentary explaining a verse — its context, its meaning and how the scholars have understood it.

At-Tawbah 9:126

Word by word

أَوَلَا يَرَوْنَ أَنَّهُمْ يُفْتَنُونَ فِى كُلِّ عَامٍ مَّرَّةً أَوْ مَرَّتَيْنِ ثُمَّ لَا يَتُوبُونَ وَلَا هُمْ يَذَّكَّرُونَ

Do they not see that they are tried every year once or twice but then they do not repent nor do they remember?

أو لا يرى المنافقون أن الله يبتليهم بالقحط والشدة، وبإظهار ما يبطنون من النفاق مرة أو مرتين في كل عام؟ ثم هم مع ذلك لا يتوبون مِن كفرهم ونفاقهم، ولا هم يتعظون ولا يتذكرون بما يعاينون من آيات الله.
