تفسير ابن كثير — Ismail ibn Kathir

قال عبد الرحمن بن زيد بن أسلم ، عن أبيه : ( والذين اجتنبوا الطاغوت أن يعبدوها ) نزلت في زيد بن عمرو بن نفيل ، وأبي ذر ، وسلمان الفارسي .

والصحيح أنها شاملة لهم ولغيرهم ، ممن اجتنب عبادة الأوثان ، وأناب إلى عبادة الرحمن . فهؤلاء هم الذين لهم البشرى في الحياة الدنيا وفي الآخرة .
