Commentary

And when the one who is superstitious observes the auspicious and inauspicious signs, as previously mentioned in the verses of As-Saffat, he does not abandon that except in a matter that astonishes his mind and overwhelms his intellect. So he does not allow himself to reflect. He said, indicating their intense concern for this distraction while not being cautious of anything: "from" meaning surpassing to you every place that was [from the direction of] "the right" meaning from you where they hope for it, "and from the left" meaning from you even though they are superstitious about it. "In groups" meaning while they are in groups, and creation, creation, scattered in various factions, they take their time to come all together in a gathering of honor. Its origin is 'Izzah because every faction takes pride in something other than what the other takes pride in. It was gathered [gathering of] safety, as an exception.
