Commentary
And when he mentioned what is for the people of stagnation who do not permit the empowered ones, he mentioned their opposites and said, affirming due to their denial: "Indeed, for the righteous." That is, those who are deeply rooted in the attribute of righteousness, specifically, without others who do not have righteousness. And righteousness is the precaution by which one protects oneself due to fear of harm, which leads to permitting the empowered ones. Al-Malwi said: Its origin is that the protective horse - which is the one that is injured and barefoot - does not place its hoof until it sees whether the place is soft and suitable. Likewise, the righteous does not move or remain except with insight from the pleasure of Allah regarding that. So none of them does anything from those vile effects that were mentioned for the deniers. They attained perfection through the righteousness of the practical power that arises from the righteousness of the knowledge power. And he increased in encouragement by referring to the paradise of the heart and the expansion of the spirit by saying: "With their Lord." That is, the One who is good to them in the place of the regret of those and the disappointment of their hopes. For their closeness indicates His pleasure, glorified and exalted is He. And the pleasure of the owner of the abode is sought before looking at the abode. And when he referred to the paradise of the heart, he followed it with the paradise of the heart by saying: "Gardens," which is the plural of garden, and it is the language of the gathering orchard. In the terminology of Shari'ah, it is a place where all joy gathers and all evils are absent. "The bliss," which is pure from being disturbed, confused, or made unpleasant, has nothing in it other than it at all - as indicated by the addition.
