Tafsīr

قرآن حکیم (شرح آیات منتخب)

باری جستن از نماز

خداوند در این یه دستور می‌دهد که در سختی‌ها از صبر و نماز کمک بگیرید. نماز توجه قلبی به خداوند عالم و پیوند روح با مالک و صاحب اختیار جهان است. مفسران در تفسیر این آیه نقل کرده‌اند که پیامبر اکرم(ص) هر گاه با مشکلی روبه‌رو می‌شد که او را ناراحت می‌کردء از نماز و روزه مدد می‌گرفت. از امام صادق(ع) نیز نقل شده که «هنگامی که مشکل طاقت‌فرسایی برای علی(ع) پیش می‌آمد. به نماز پناه می‌برد.» سپس حضرت این آیه را تلاوت فرمود.
