His words:

then He makes him die and buries him.

He said:

Its inner meaning is that He causes the pleasures (ḥuẓūẓ) which the lower self derives from lust, to die, and buries him [i.e. the pleasures] within him.

Then, when He wills, He will raise him,

affiliated with wisdom (ḥikma), in a contemplative witnessing (mushāhada) of God, whilst being cut off from all other than Him.

His words, Exalted is He:

We pour down water plenteously,

He said:

It is a pouring down of the subtlety of His meanings (luṭf maʿānīhi), represented by water. Then We split the earth [80:26] which is the heart, in fissures [80:26] and grow in it flowers of different colours, those of the spirit (rūḥ), intellect (ʿaql), faith (īmān) and gnosis (maʿrifa), just as the Messenger of God ﷺ said, ‘Is not the Qurʾān the flower of hearts (zahrat al-qulūb)?^{1Fī preceding qulūb is absent from all three MSS: Z515, f. 128b, F638, f. 63a and F3488, f. 310b.} Does not faith cultivate wealth (ghinā)^{2In Z515, f. 128b, F638, f. 63a, it appears to be ghanī, with two dots under the alif maqṣūra.} in the heart, just as the rain causes the flowers to grow? Is it not so that avarice (shuḥḥ) causes hypocrisy (nifāq) to grow in the heart just as dew causes herbage to grow?’

His words, Mighty and Majestic is He:

the day when a man will flee from his [own] brother,^{1The following two verses (80:35 and 36) specify: his mother, his father, his wife, his children.}

[such as] Abel from Cain, Muḥammad ﷺ from his uncle, Abraham عليه السلام from his father, Lot عليه السلام from his wife, and Noah عليه السلام from his own son.

every person that day will have a matter to concern him,

Which will distract him from everyone except his own self.
