Q 11:87
قَالُوا۟ يَـٰشُعَيْبُ أَصَلَوٰتُكَ تَأْمُرُكَ أَن نَّتْرُكَ مَا يَعْبُدُ ءَابَآؤُنَآ أَوْ أَن نَّفْعَلَ فِىٓ أَمْوَٰلِنَا مَا نَشَـٰٓؤُا۟ ۖ إِنَّكَ لَأَنتَ ٱلْحَلِيمُ ٱلرَّشِيدُ
Traductions
Ils dirent: «O Chuayb! Est-ce que ta prière te demande de nous faire abandonner ce qu'adoraient nos ancêtres, ou de ne plus faire de nos biens ce que nous voulons? Est-ce toi l'indulgent, le droit?»They said, "O Shu'ayb, does your prayer command you that we should leave what our fathers worship or not do with our wealth what we please? Indeed, you are the forbearing, the discerning!"Tafsir
Le peuple de Chu’ayb lui dit: Ô Chu’ayb, est-ce la prière que tu accomplis pour Allah qui t’ordonne que l’on délaisse l’adoration des idoles que nos ancêtres adoraient et que l’on cesse de disposer de nos biens comme bon nous semble ou qu’on les fasse fructifier selon notre bon vouloir? Tu étais pourtant, avant ta prédication, quelqu’un d’indulgent et de sage. Quel mal t’a donc atteint?
Lire Ibn Kathir (Ibn Kathir (abrégé, en anglais))
They said: "O Shu'ayb! Does your Salah command you that we give up what our fathers used to worship, or that we give up doing what we like with our property? Verily, you are the forbearer, right-minded! (87)
The Response of Shu'ayb's People
They said to Shu'ayb, in mockery,
أَصَلَاتُكَ
(Does your Salah) Al-A'mash said, "This means your reading."
تَأْمُرُكَ أَن نَّتْرُكَ مَا يَعْبُدُ آبَاؤُنَا
(command you that we give up what our fathers used to worship,) meaning the idols and statues.
أَوْ أَن نَّفْعَلَ فِي أَمْوَالِنَا مَا نَشَاءُ
(or that we give up doing what we like with our property?) This means, "Should we abandon our practice of lightening the scales because of your statement This is our wealth and we will do with it as we please." Al-Hasan said concerning Allah's statement,
أَصَلَاتُكَ تَأْمُرُكَ أَن نَّتْرُكَ مَا يَعْبُدُ آبَاؤُنَا
(Does your Salah command you that we give up what our fathers used to worship,)[11:87] "By Allah, this means that his prayer commanded them to abandon what their fathers used to worship." At-Thawri said concerning Allah's statement,
أَوْ أَن نَّفْعَلَ فِي أَمْوَالِنَا مَا نَشَاءُ
(or that we give up doing what we like with our property?) "They were speaking in reference to the paying of Zakah (charity)."
إِنَّكَ لَأَنتَ الْحَلِيمُ الرَّشِيدُ
(Verily, you are the forbearer right-minded!) Ibn 'Abbas, Maymun bin Mihran, Ibn Jurayj, Ibn Aslam, and Ibn Jarir all said, "These enemies of Allah were only saying this in mockery. May Allah disfigure them and curse them from ever receiving His mercy. And verily, He did so."
