* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn


{ لَقَدْ كَانَ لَكُمْ فِيهِمْ أُسْوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ لِّمَن كَانَ يَرْجُو ٱللَّهَ وَٱلْيَوْمَ ٱلآخِرَ وَمَن يَتَوَلَّ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلْغَنِيُّ ٱلْحَمِيدُ }

Verily there is for you O community of Muhammad (s) laqad kāna lakum is the response to an implied oath in them a good example for those of you who li-man kāna is an inclusive substitution for –kum of lakum ‘for you’ with the same preposition li- repeated anticipate God and the Last Day that is for those who fear these two or who expect reward or punishment. And whoever turns away by befriending the disbelievers should know that God is the Independent without need of His creatures the Worthy of Praise to those who obey Him.
