And when the protection of the Qur'an was established by the power of the Sovereign, the Judge; from the deception of the jinn; some of them, along with this, would sometimes hear what Allah intended for them to hear; to make it a trial for whom He willed among His servants; with the distinction of the Qur'an by its miraculous nature; he excluded from the doer of "they listen"; his saying: "except for one who steals"; and it indicated the rarity of that; after isolating the pronoun; by his saying: "the stealing"; meaning: he snatched the word; or more; once from among them; and it indicated the strength of the falling of the stars in its effect with the hamzah in his saying: "so he followed him"; with its transitive nature without it; meaning: he followed him with the utmost speed; until it was as if he was driving himself and following it for him; as if Allah - glorified and exalted is He - prepared it so that it would not fall except in the wake of one who heard from them at the time of his hearing; without delay; "a shooting star"; meaning: a flame of fire from the star; or otherwise; "piercing"; meaning: it pierces whatever it encounters; from a jinn or otherwise; and if the jinn is from fire; then it is not pure fire; and upon the descent, perhaps one thing has types; some of which are stronger than others; so the stronger one affects the weaker; like iron; and sometimes it misses the jinn; and sometimes it hits it; and if it hits it, sometimes it burns it; so it destroys it; and sometimes it weakens it.
