The Holy Quran 22:53 — Surah Al-Hajj

Arabic text

لِّيَجْعَلَ مَا يُلْقِى ٱلشَّيْطَـٰنُ فِتْنَةً لِّلَّذِينَ فِى قُلُوبِهِم مَّرَضٌ وَٱلْقَاسِيَةِ قُلُوبُهُمْ ۗ وَإِنَّ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ لَفِى شِقَاقٍۭ بَعِيدٍ

Translation

(These doubts that are cast into peoples' hearts have different effects on different people. Allaah says that Shaytaan casts these doubts) So that Allaah makes the doubts cast by Shaytaan a test (to see whether they accept or reject) for those in whose hearts is a disease (of hypocrisy or doubtfulness) and for those whose hearts are hard (the Kuffaar). Indeed, the oppressors (those who succumb to these doubts) are in a far removed disagreement (they will argue at all costs. In this regard, Allaah says in verse 121 of Surah 6, "The Shayaateen will surely whisper evil (doubts) into the hearts of their friends so (sinners who are astray) that they dispute with you".)

Tafsir (excerpt) — روح المعاني

موضع ضمير هم تسجيلا عليهم بالظلم مع ما وصفوا به من المرض والقسوة لفي شقاق بعيد ٥٣) أى عداوة شديدة ومخالفة تامة، ووصف الشقاق بالبعد مع أن الموصوف به حقيقة هو معروضه للمبالغة، والجملة اعتراض تذييلي مقرر لمضمون ما قبله، ولام (ليجعل) للتعليل وهو عند الحوفى متعلق بيحكم وعند ابن عطية بينسخ وعند غيرهما بألقى لكن التعليل لما ينبىء.
