Commentary
And 'zarabi' means wide carpets that are abundant in wool, as if they are splendid and flourishing gardens, exceeding the places of their resting. It is the plural of 'zarabiyyah'. 'Mabthuthah' means spread out in a way that is scattered in the places where one does not intend to take a rest among the places of the fragrant herbs and the intertwined trees, just as He, glorified and exalted is He, spread the surface of the earth and adorned it with various splendid plants, as they spread themselves in this world for the truth and softened it for Him.
