Commentary

And when fear is intense greed and lack of patience, he spread its meaning and said, introducing the action which is the circumstance for the doer, clarifying his hastiness in that: ﴿When harm touches him﴾ [meaning] the slightest touch of ﴿evil﴾, meaning this type, which its sparks fly from harm. ﴿He becomes despondent﴾, meaning great despondency, which is the opposite of patience, to the extent that its owner is about to tear himself in two and fall apart.
