وَلَقَدۡ ہَمَّتۡ بِہٖ ۖ وَہَمَّ بِہَا لَوۡلَاۤ اَنۡ رَّاٰ بُرۡہٰنَ رَبِّہٖ ۚ کَذٰلِکَ لِنَصۡرِفَ عَنۡہُ السُّوۡٓءَ وَالۡفَحۡشَآءَ ۚ اِنَّہٗ مِنۡ عِبَادِنَا الۡمُخۡلَصِیۡنَ
The wife of Joseph’s master intended a thing about Joseph (i.e. copulation). Similarly, Joseph intended a thing about her, i.e. resisting her evil intention. That Joseph did not intend anything evil is clear from the previous verse. His only object was to dissuade her from her evil purpose.
By 'manifest Sign' are meant the heavenly Signs which Joseph had already witnessed, e.g. the wonderful dream which foretold his future greatness (v. 5), the revelation he had received when cast into the well, which also pointed to his later eminence and glory (v. 16) and also his being taken out alive from the well.
Just as an attempt was made to tempt Joseph away from the path of piety and rectitude, similarly, the idolaters of Mecca made an unsuccessful attempt to make the Holy Prophet give up preaching the Unity of God by offering to make him their king or to collect great wealth for him or to give him in marriage the most beautiful girl in Arabia. The offer was of course contemptuously rejected by the Holy Prophet with the historic words, 'If you place the sun on my right hand and the moon on my left hand, even then I will not give up preaching God’s Unity (Hisham).
Commentary:
This verse tells us that the wife of Joseph’s master intended a thing about Joseph (i.e. copulation) in which she did not succeed. Similarly, Joseph intended a thing about her (i.e. turning her to pure thoughts), but he too did not succeed in his endeavour. That Joseph did not intend anything evil is clear from the previous verse. His only purpose was to dissuade her from her evil course.
By "manifest sign" is meant the heavenly signs which Joseph had already witnessed, e.g. the wonderful dream which foretold his future greatness (v. 5) and the revelation he had received when cast into the well, which also pointed to his later eminence and glory (v. 16). Surely, the person who was being prepared for the exalted office of a Prophet could not debase himself before an idolatrous woman.
The words, that We might turn away from him evil and indecency, signify that a person who had witnessed such signs could not stoop to evil. They may also mean that God brought about these circumstances so that Joseph should no longer live in the evil company of his master’s wicked wife and her evil companions which might have exercised a pernicious influence on him.
Here there is another point of resemblance between Joseph and the Holy Prophet. Just as an attempt was made to tempt Joseph away from the path of piety and rectitude, similarly, the idolaters of Mecca made an unsuccessful attempt to make the Holy Prophet give up preaching the Unity of God by offering to make him their king or amass great wealth for him or give him in marriage the most beautiful girl in Arabia. The offer was of course disdainfully rejected by the Prophet with the historic words, "If you place the sun on my right hand and the moon on my left hand, I will not give up preaching the Oneness of God." (Zurqani & Hisham). This constitutes the eleventh resemblance between these two great Prophets.

Commentary:
The word نورث signifies that the believers being God’s own beloved children will get Paradise as of right. The word incidentally implies permanence of the gifts of Paradise and constitutes a refutation of any exclusive title of Jesus to be the son of God.

ثُمَّ اَوۡرَثۡنَا الۡکِتٰبَ الَّذِیۡنَ اصۡطَفَیۡنَا مِنۡ عِبَادِنَا ۖ فَمِنۡہُمۡ ظَالِمٌ لِّنَفۡسِہٖ وَمِنۡہُمۡ مُّقۡتَصِدٌ وَّمِنۡہُمۡ سَابِقٌۢ بِالۡخَیۡرٰتِ بِاِذۡنِ اللّٰہِ ۚ ذٰلِکَ ہُوَ الۡفَضۡلُ الۡکَبِیۡرُ
一个信者要经过不同阶段的强力的精神锻炼。在第一个阶段, 他必须对自己低劣的愿望和情欲作坚决的斗争, 严于克己。在第二阶段他向目标前进的速度是渐进的, 在最后阶段, 他的道德、精神地位达到了完善的程度, 他非常迅速而稳步地向着自己的伟大目标前进。
A believer passes through various stages of rigorous spiritual discipline. At the first stage he wages a veritable war against his low desires and passions and practises strict self-denial. At the next stage his progress towards his goal is only gradual, and at the last stage he attains his full moral stature and his progress towards his great goal is very rapid and uniform.
Commentary:
After mentioning in verse 25 above that Divine Messengers were sent to all the peoples, and after explaining in the immediately preceding verse (v. 32) that the Quran testifies to the Divine origin of all the Books that were given to those Messengers and fulfils the prophecies that the former Prophets and Divine Books had made about the Quran and the Holy Prophet, the verse under comment proceeds to say that the sacred and onerous duty of preaching this last Divine Message to mankind has been entrusted to men whom God has specially selected for this purpose. They are not men of ordinary calibre. They have fully fitted themselves for the discharge of this great duty by passing through various stages of rigorous spiritual discipline. The following are the three stages through which a believer has to pass to attain a very high degree of spiritual development. In the first stage he wages a veritable war against his low desires and passions, and practises strict self-denial. It is after he has learned to control his passions and suppress his evil desires that he moves on to the next stage of "taking the middle course." At this stage, he does not falter or fall but his progress towards his goal is but gradual. It is at the third and last stage when he has attained his full moral stature that his progress towards the realization of his great goal becomes rapid and uniform. This stage has been termed سابق بالخیرات in this verse.

ضَرَبَ اللّٰہُ مَثَلًا لِّلَّذِیۡنَ کَفَرُوا امۡرَاَتَ نُوۡحٍ وَّامۡرَاَتَ لُوۡطٍ ۖ کَانَتَا تَحۡتَ عَبۡدَیۡنِ مِنۡ عِبَادِنَا صٰلِحَیۡنِ فَخَانَتَاہُمَا فَلَمۡ یُغۡنِیَا عَنۡہُمَا مِنَ اللّٰہِ شَیۡـًٔا وَّقِیۡلَ ادۡخُلَا النَّارَ مَعَ الدّٰخِلِیۡنَ
قرآن مجید میں تَحْتَ کا لفظ آتا ہے۔ جس کے معنے نیچے کے ہیں۔ مگر عربی محاورہ کے مطابق عورت کے مرد کے ماتحت ہونے کے معنے یہ ہوتے ہیں کہ وہ اس کی بیوی تھی۔ یہ بھی یاد رکھنا چاہیے کہ یہاں قرآن کریم نے یہ نہیں فرمایا کہ کَانَتَا تَحْتَھُمَا وہ ان دونوں کے ماتحت تھیں بلکہ یہ کہا ہے کہ وہ ہمارے دو بندوں کے ماتحت تھیں اور جو خدا کا بندہ ہو وہ کسی قسم کا ظلم نہیں کر سکتا۔ پس ان الفاظ سے بتا دیا ہے کہ گو وہ عورتیں نوحؑ اور لوطؑ کے ماتحت تھیں مگر پھر بھی وہ ماتحتی مجبوری کی نہیں تھی بلکہ ارادت اور عقیدت کی تھی۔
یعنی خداتعالیٰ کا معاملہ ہر انسان سے انفرادی ہوتا ہے۔ اگر کوئی نیک بندہ ہو تو وہ اپنا ہی بوجھ اٹھا سکتا ہے دوسرے کا نہیں اٹھا سکتا۔ بلکہ قرآن کریم میں اللہ تعالیٰ فرماتا ہے کہ اگر محمد رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کی بیویاں کوئی بدی کریں گی تو ان کو دُگنا عذاب ملے گا۔ (احزاب: ۳۱) پس نیک آدمی کی بیوی بننے سے عورت کسی رعایت کی مستحق نہیں ہوتی بلکہ اس کی ذ مّہ واری بڑھ جاتی ہے۔
The disbelievers are compared to the wives of Noah and Lot in order to show that the companionship of a righteous man, even a Prophet of God, does not benefit an evilly-inclined person who is bent upon rejecting truth. The wife of Pharaoh represents those believers, who though passionately desiring and praying to get rid of sin, cannot fully dissociate themselves from evil influences which are represented by Pharaoh, and having arrived at the stage of the "self-accusing soul" sometimes fail and falter. Mary, the mother of Jesus, represents those righteous servants of God who, having closed all avenues of sin and having made peace with God, are blessed with Divine inspiration; the pronoun hi in fihi standing for such fortunate believers. Or, the pronoun may stand for Farj which, literally meaning a cleft or fissure, signifies an opening through which sin can find access.
