۞ وَإِلَىٰ مَدْيَنَ أَخَاهُمْ شُعَيْبًۭا ۚ قَالَ يَـٰقَوْمِ ٱعْبُدُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ مَا لَكُم مِّنْ إِلَـٰهٍ غَيْرُهُۥ ۖ وَلَا تَنقُصُوا۟ ٱلْمِكْيَالَ وَٱلْمِيزَانَ ۚ إِنِّىٓ أَرَىٰكُم بِخَيْرٍۢ وَإِنِّىٓ أَخَافُ عَلَيْكُمْ عَذَابَ يَوْمٍۢ مُّحِيطٍۢ ٨٤
And unto Midian (We sent) their brother Shu'eyb. He said: O my people! Serve Allah. Ye have no other Allah save Him! And give not short measure and short weight. Lo! I see you well-to-do, and lo! I fear for you the doom of a besetting Day.
And to Madyan [We sent] their brother Shu'ayb. He said, "O my people, worship Allah; you have no deity other than Him. And do not decrease from the measure and the scale. Indeed, I see you in prosperity, but indeed, I fear for you the punishment of an all-encompassing Day.
And to (the people of) Midian We sent their brother Shu'ayb. He said: 'My people! Serve Allah; you have no god other than Him. And do not diminish the measure and weight. Indeed I see that you are prospering now, but I fear for you the chastisement of an encompassing day in the future.
يَقُولُ تَعَالَى: وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا إِلَى مَدْيَنَ -وَهُمْ قَبِيلَةٌ مِنَ الْعَرَبِ، كَانُوا يَسْكُنُونَ بَيْنَ الْحِجَازِ وَالشَّامِ، قَرِيبًا مِنْ بِلَادِ مَعَانٍ، فِي بَلَدٍ يُعْرَفُ بِهِمْ، يُقَالُ لَهَا "مَدْيَنُ" فَأَرْسَلَ اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِمْ شُعَيْبًا، وَكَانَ مِنْ أَشْرَفِهِمْ [[في ت، أ: "أشرافهم".]] نَسَبًا. وَلِهَذَا قَالَ: ﴿أَخَاهُمْ شُعَيْبًا﴾ يَأْمُرُهُمْ بِعِبَادَةِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى وَحْدَهُ، وَيَنْهَاهُمْ عَنِ التَّطْفِيفِ [[في أ: "الطفيف".]] فِي الْمِكْيَالِ وَالْمِيزَانِ ﴿إِنِّي أَرَاكُمْ بِخَيْرٍ وَإِنِّي أَخَافُ عَلَيْكُمْ عَذَابَ يَوْمٍ مُحِيطٍ﴾ أَيْ: فِي مَعِيشَتِكُمْ وَرِزْقِكُمْ فَأَخَافَ أَنْ تُسلَبوا مَا أَنْتُمْ فِيهِ بِانْتِهَاكِكُمْ مَحَارِمَ اللَّهِ، ﴿وَإِنِّي أَخَافُ عَلَيْكُمْ عَذَابَ يَوْمٍ مُحِيطٍ﴾ [[في ت: "عظيم".]] أَيْ: فِي الدَّارِ الْآخِرَةِ.
