يَٰٓأَيُّهَا اَ۬لذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ اُ۬لْقِصَاصُ فِے اِ۬لْقَتْلَيۖ اَ۬لْحُرُّ بِالْحُرِّ وَالْعَبْدُ بِالْعَبْدِ وَالُانث۪يٰ بِالُانث۪يٰۖ فَمَنْ عُفِيَ لَهُۥ مِنَ اَخِيهِ شَےْءࣱ فَاتِّبَاعُۢ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَأَدَآءٌ اِلَيْهِ بِإِحْسَٰنࣲۖ ذَٰلِكَ تَخْفِيفࣱ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ وَرَحْمَةࣱۖ فَمَنِ اِ۪عْتَد۪يٰ بَعْدَ ذَٰلِكَ فَلَهُۥ عَذَابٌ اَلِيمࣱۖ
O ye who believe! Retaliation is prescribed for you in the matter of the murdered; the freeman for the freeman, and the slave for the slave, and the female for the female. And for him who is forgiven somewhat by his (injured) brother, prosecution according to usage and payment unto him in kindness. This is an alleviation and a mercy from your Lord. He who transgresseth after this will have a painful doom — Pickthall

The site’s Arabic edition follows Warsh ʿan Nāfiʿ; the reference text quoted here and the matcher behind the Fī Riyāḍ loci are Ḥafṣ ʿan ʿĀṣim. Content is nearly identical, but verse-boundary numbering diverges in a handful of places. Each locus carries its own witness’s numbering. Page references follow the ten-volume Tunis 2022 printing this site was transcribed from; published scholarship on this text cites the six-volume Tunis 2010 printing, whose pagination is different.
Sustained interpretation of the verse as a verse — lemma, gloss, expansion.

Recording only — no text here. Lesson 5 runs from Q 2:106–Q 2:202. Of the 97 āyāt in that span, as many as 75 are quoted in the transcription; this one is not among them, so whether he comments on it is not established. The page given is where the lesson opens — start there and read on.
Entries are grouped by what Shaykh Ibrāhīm is doing with the verse, then ordered oldest first inside each group, so the same words can be seen carrying different work across a career. Every entry names the witness it comes from and how well attested the attribution is. Loci that are known but not yet available are listed rather than hidden.
