التفسير الميسر
سورة سبأ · 34:14
فَلَمَّا قَضَيْنَا عَلَيْهِ الْمَوْتَ مَا دَلَّهُمْ عَلَىٰ مَوْتِهِ إِلَّا دَابَّةُ الْأَرْضِ تَأْكُلُ مِنْسَأَتَهُ ۖ فَلَمَّا خَرَّ تَبَيَّنَتِ الْجِنُّ أَنْ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ الْغَيْبَ مَا لَبِثُوا فِي الْعَذَابِ الْمُهِينِ
(14) And when We decreed for him [i.e., Solomon] death, nothing indicated to them [i.e., the jinn] his death except a creature of the earth eating his staff.[1222] But when he fell, it became clear to the jinn that if they had known the unseen, they would not have remained in humiliating punishment.[1223]

[1222]- Upon which he was leaning at the time of his death. A termite continued to gnaw into the stick until it collapsed under his weight.
[1223]- i.e., hard labor. This verse is evidence that the jinn do not possess knowledge of the unseen, which belongs exclusively to Allāh (subḥānahu wa taʿālā).

فلما قضينا على سليمان بالموت ما دلَّ الجن على موته إلا الأرَضَةُ تأكل عصاه التي كان متكئًا عليها، فوقع سليمان على الأرض، عند ذلك علمت الجن أنهم لو كانوا يعلمون الغيب ما أقاموا في العذاب المذلِّ والعمل الشاق لسليمان؛ ظنا منهم أنه من الأحياء. وفي الآية إبطال لاعتقاد بعض الناس أن الجن يعلمون الغيب; إذ لو كانوا يعلمون الغيب لعلموا وفاة سليمان عليه السلام، ولما أقاموا في العذاب المهين.
