And when it was known that it shook and the fresh dates fell, it caused His saying: ﴿So eat﴾, meaning that as a result of the blessing upon you with water and fresh dates, it is said to you, enabling you from both of them, eat from the fresh dates ﴿and drink﴾ from the cool water ﴿and settle﴾, meaning remain ﴿with your eyes﴾ in sleep. For indeed, the one who is troubled does not sleep, and the eye does not settle while it is awake. And from Al-Asma'i, the meaning is: let your tear cool, for the tear of joy is cool and the tear of sorrow is hot. And the derivation of 'qarri' is from 'qurur', which is cool water - it has ended.

And Imam Abu Abdullah Al-Qazzaz said in his collection: And Al-Farra' reported that Quraysh and those around them say: 'Qarirtu bihi 'ayna' - meaning with the breaking of the eye - 'aqarru', and that Asad, Qays, and Tamim say: 'Qarartu bihi 'ayna' - meaning with the opening [aqirru, he said - meaning Al-Farra': So whoever said: 'Qarirtu' - meaning with the breaking - it is 'qarran', and 'qarri 'ayna' - meaning with the opening -], and it is the well-known reading. And whoever said: 'Qarartu' - meaning with the opening 'qara' and 'qirri 'ayna' - with the breaking of the qaf, meaning it is [the rare one, he said - meaning Al-Qazzaz: it is -] the language of [everyone -] I met from the people of Najd, and the source is 'qurra' and 'qurur'. (p-191) And there will come in the stories what benefits here, and it is [in any case -] a metaphor for the goodness of the soul and its readiness to sleep sufficiently in this world with the food of the body and the nourishment of the spirit by being a clear sign, and the Hereafter with honor [and that is in the most beneficial ways. It was said: There is nothing better for the postpartum women than fresh dates, nor for the sick than honey; then it caused as a result of that His saying, confirming an indication that most of its visions at those times are the angels upon them be peace -] ﴿So if you see﴾ [meaning -] O Maryam ﴿any human﴾ do not doubt that he is one of the humans who denies you ﴿then say﴾ to that denier in response to him with confirmation, indicating innocence, for the innocent remains calm for his reassurance, and the one who doubts increases in his speech and swearing: ﴿Indeed, I have vowed to the Most Merciful﴾, meaning the One whose mercy has encompassed, so He has included me in it despite my weakness and has honored me with what you have seen of the miracles ﴿a fast﴾, meaning silence [that saves from every blemish -] and refraining from speaking ﴿so I will not﴾, meaning it has resulted from the vow that I will not ﴿speak to any human today﴾ for my speech is subject to rejection and debate [-] but the one who will speak for me is the newborn whose speech cannot be denied. And as for me, I glorify myself from debating the foolish, so I will only speak to the angels or the Creator with glorification and sanctification and all types of remembrance. They said: And among the most humiliated of people is a foolish one who has not found a foolish counterpart, and from (p-192) the indication of that is silence from the speech of people along with what has been previously indicated that it is merely a deterrent.
