قرآن حکیم (شرح آیات منتخب)

حلم الهی

مفسران در ذیل جملةٌ «و ان یوماً عند ربک کلف سَنَة ممّا َعْدّون» سخنان گوناگونی گفته‌اند؛ اما این درست‌تر به نظر می‌رسد که خداوند در این جمله مثال زده که در نزد او یک روز و هزار سال مساوی استء و اگر خداوند فوراً پس از درخواست مشرکان برای عذاب شدن» آنها را عذاب کند یا این که هزار سال به آنها مهلت دهد و سپس آنها را در عذاب کندء برای او یکسان است و فرقی نمی‌کند و سرانجام آنها گرفتار عذاب الهی خواهند شد؛ چرا که خداوند هرگز از وعدة خود تخلف نخواهد کرد. این آّیه در حقیقت بیانگر صفت «حلم» خداوند است؛ چرا که حلم به معنای مهلت دادن و به تأخیر انداختن کیفر گناه است. از طرف دیگر کسی عجله می‌کند که می‌ترسد فرصت از دستش برود و امکاناتش پایان گیرد؛ اما خدایی که از ازل تا ابد بر همه چیز قادر بوده و هستء عجله برای او مطرح نیست و همیشه بر انجام وعده‌های خود قدرت دارد.
