The Shaykh :[Ash-Shuraa 42:41] The lam in His saying: The lam is for the beginning, and "man" is a conditional noun that requires a verb, the verb of the condition is "takes revenge," and its answer is: [Ash-Shuraa 42:41], meaning he took his right " that is, the wrongdoer wronged him ". Here we ask: Is "wronging" here a verbal noun added to the doer or to the object? The author’s wording indicates that it is added to the object, that is, the wrongdoer wronged him. Accordingly, the verbal noun is added to its object, not to its doer. It is not correct for it to be added to the doer, because if it were, the meaning would be: "And as for the one who takes revenge after wronging people, then there is no way for them to be held accountable." But the wrongdoer is not one who has been wronged until he takes revenge for himself. Therefore, the verbal noun is added to the object. [Ash-Shuraa 42:41] It has been mentioned previously that Allah the Exalted praised those who, when aggression befalls them, take revenge for themselves [Ash-Shuraa 42:41] He said: " held accountable ". The original meaning of "sabil" is path, meaning there is no path for them to blame or accountability. We want one of you to parse His saying: "min": a superfluous preposition grammatically, and "sabil" is a delayed subject raised by a hidden dammah on its end, prevented from appearing by the occupation of the position by the movement of the superfluous preposition, and the meaning is "then there is no sabil for them." When someone asks: What is the benefit of superfluous prepositions? The answer is: Their benefit is emphasis, meaning emphasis of the negation.
