Fraud of Hypocrites

Surah ‘Aali-‘Im-raan (The Family of ‘Imran) – Chptr – 3) 

‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim.
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast)

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

 يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَا تَكُونُوا۟كَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ وَقَالُوا۟ لِإِخْوَٰنِهِمْ إِذَا ضَرَبُوا۟ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ أَوْ كَانُوا۟ غُزًّى لَّوْ كَانُوا۟ عِندَنَا مَا مَاتُوا۟ وَمَا قُتِلُوا۟ لِيَجْعَلَ ٱللَّهُ ذَٰلِكَ حَسْرَةً فِى قُلُوبِهِمْوَٱللَّهُ يُحْىِۦ وَيُمِيتُ وَٱللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ بَصِيرٌ 156

156a.  O ye who believe! Be not as those who disbelieved and said of their brethren who went abroad in the land or were fighting in the field: If they had been (here) with us they would not have died or been killed; that Allah may make it anguish in their hearts. 
156a.  Yaaa-‘ayyu-hallaziina  ‘aamanuu  laa  takuunuu  kallaziina  kafaruu  wa  qaaluu  li-‘ikhwaa-nihim  ‘izaa  zarabuu  fil-‘arzi  ‘aw  kaanuu  Guz-zal-law  kaanuu  ‘indanaa  maa  maatuu  wa  maa  qutiluu. Li-yaj-‘alAllaahu  zaalika  hasratan-  fii  quluubihim.

Commentary
      
The Muslims have been advised that they should not place such absurd thoughts in their hearts as of the Hypocrites, “If we had been in our houses then we would not have been died or killed”. Remember it always that place and time of death has been fixed since the beginning. Neither it can be changed and nor delayed.

‘Ikhwaa-nihim  -  (the Hypocrites), they were apparently Muslims. Therefore, they have called the Muslims here as their brethren. In addition, because they have used these words in the style of well wishing, so the word ’ikh-waan (Brothers) is used in this verse. They said, “Our Muslim brothers died without any cause by going abroad, if they had been with us in their houses, then why would have they been killed”?

The Hypocrites had aim that grief and sorrow should be produced in the hearts of the Muslims that, “Really we did wrong as we went abroad from our houses without thinking and plunged in to the war. If we would have acted upon the advice of Hypocrites and remained in our houses, then we would not have suffered from the misfortune.”

Although the Jews tried their best to produce sorrow and grief in the hearts of Muslims and used such words by their mouths, but the Muslims were not too much weak that they would have been taken in their words. On the contrary, because of such absurd talks, their secret was betrayed and their badness of intention was manifested upon the Muslims.

Li-yaj-‘alAllaahu  zaalika  hasratan-  fii  quluubihim – (that Allah may make it anguish in their hearts). Some commentators of Holy Qur’an have explained its meanings in such a manner that “Allah Almighty released such words from the tongues and hearts of the Hypocrites, so that they would be left burning in the fire of that sorrow and grief, and they remain grieving until the Hereafter. Other grief they would have was that, “Alas! The Muslims did not turn like us, they did not listen to us but some of them were martyred and remaining returned with victory. Today too, much can be learnt from the incidents of the day of the Battle of ‘Uhud. Therefore, a field of battle among faith and hypocrisy, right and wrong will remain existing always.
