• وَقَالَ قَتَادَةُ: {جُذَاذًا} قَطَّعَهُنَّ، وَقَالَ الْحَسَنُ: {فِي فَلَكٍ} مِثْلِ فَلْكَةِ الْمِغْزَلِ، {يَسْبَحُونَ} يَدُورُونَ. قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: {نَفَشَتْ} رَعَتْ، {يُصْحَبُونَ} يُمْنَعُونَ، {أُمَّتُكُمْ أُمَّةً وَاحِدَةً} قَالَ: دِينُكُمْ دِينٌ وَاحِدٌ. وَقَالَ عِكْرِمَةُ: {حَصَبُ} حَطَبُ بِالْحَبَشِيَّةِ. وَقَالَ غَيْرُهُ: {أَحَسُّوا} تَوَقَّعُوهُ، مِنْ أَحْسَسْتُ، {خَامِدِينَ} هَامِدِينَ، حَصِيدٌ مُسْتَأْصَلٌ، يَقَعُ عَلَى الْوَاحِدِ وَالِاثْنَيْنِ وَالْجَمِيعِ، {لَا يَسْتَحْسِرُونَ} لَا يُعْيُونَ، وَمِنْهُ حَسِيرٌ، وَحَسَرْتُ بَعِيرِي، عَمِيقٌ بَعِيدٌ، {نُكِسُوا} رُدُّوا، {صَنْعَةَ لَبُوسٍ} الدُّرُوعُ، {تَقَطَّعُوا أَمْرَهُمْ} اخْتَلَفُوا، الْحَسِيسُ وَالْحِسُّ وَالْجَرْسُ وَالْهَمْسُ وَاحِدٌ، وَهُوَ مِنَ الصَّوْتِ الْخَفِيِّ، {آذَنَّاكَ} أَعْلَمْنَاكَ، {آذَنْتُكُمْ} إِذَا أَعْلَمْتَهُ فَأَنْتَ وَهُوَ عَلَى سَوَاءٍ، لَمْ تَغْدِرْ. وَقَالَ مُجَاهِدٌ: {لَعَلَّكُمْ تُسْأَلُونَ} تُفْهَمُونَ، {ارْتَضَى} رَضِيَ، {التَّمَاثِيلُ} الْأَصْنَامُ، السِّجِلُّ الصَّحِيفَةُ.
