17:69
أَمْ أَمِنتُمْ أَن يُعِيدَكُمْ فِيهِ تَارَةً أُخْرَىٰ فَيُرْسِلَ عَلَيْكُمْ قَاصِفًۭا مِّنَ ٱلرِّيحِ فَيُغْرِقَكُم بِمَا كَفَرْتُمْ ۙ ثُمَّ لَا تَجِدُوا۟ لَكُمْ عَلَيْنَا بِهِۦ تَبِيعًۭا ٦٩
Or feel ye secure that He will not return you to that (plight) a second time, and send against you a hurricane of wind and drown you for your thanklessness, and then ye will not find therein that ye have any avenger against Us?
Or do you feel secure that He will not send you back into the sea another time and send upon you a hurricane of wind and drown you for what you denied? Then you would not find for yourselves against Us an avenger.
Or do you feel secure that He will not cause you to revert to the sea, and let a tempest loose upon you and then drown you for your ingratitude whereupon you will find none even to inquire of Us what happened to you?
يَقُولُ تَعَالَى: ﴿أَمْ أَمِنْتُمْ﴾ أَيُّهَا الْمُعْرِضُونَ عَنَّا بَعْدَمَا اعْتَرَفُوا بِتَوْحِيدِنَا فِي الْبَحْرِ، وَخَرَجُوا إِلَى الْبَرِّ [[في ت: "إلى التراب".]] ﴿أَنْ يُعِيدَكُمْ﴾ فِي الْبَحْرِ مَرَّةً ثَانِيَةً ﴿فَيُرْسِلَ عَلَيْكُمْ قَاصِفًا مِنَ الرِّيحِ﴾ أَيْ: يَقْصِفُ الصَّوَارِيَ وَيُغْرِقُ الْمَرَاكِبَ.
قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ وَغَيْرُهُ: الْقَاصِفُ: رِيحُ الْبِحَارِ [[في ت: "البحارة".]] الَّتِي تَكْسِرُ الْمَرَاكِبَ وَتُغْرِقُهَا [[في ف: "يكسر المراكب ويغرقها".]] .
وَقَوْلُهُ: ﴿فَيُغْرِقَكُمْ بِمَا كَفَرْتُمْ﴾ [[في ت: "فتغرقكم". وفي ف: "فيغرقكم".]] أَيْ: بِسَبَبِ كُفْرِكُمْ وَإِعْرَاضِكُمْ عَنِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى.
وَقَوْلُهُ: ﴿ثُمَّ لَا تَجِدُوا لَكُمْ عَلَيْنَا بِهِ تَبِيعًا﴾ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: نَصِيرًا.
وَقَالَ مُجَاهِدٌ: نَصِيرًا ثَائِرًا، أَيْ: يَأْخُذُ بِثَأْرِكُمْ بِعْدَكُمْ.
وَقَالَ قَتَادَةُ: وَلَا نَخَافُ أَحَدًا يُتْبِعُنَا بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ ذَلِكَ.
