The wandering Arabs are more hard in disbelief and hypocrisy, and more likely
to be ignorant of the limits which Allah hath revealed unto His Messenger.
And Allah is Knower, Wise.

Commentary
‘Ajdaru – (more
likely), this word is from judurun. Judurun means “to be able
to”. The person, who is more (in any attribute) than someone else in
comparison, is called ‘ajdaru. In common use, it is said “he can do
only this, unable to perform any other work”.
Inhabitants of any city; learn
quickly the manners and the etiquettes because they live in such environment
where means of education are spread. Contrary to this, the inhabitants of villages
are of hard nature and unable to learn new things quickly. In the beginning,
there was mention about the inhabitants of the city that three kinds of people
are found there i.e. Infidels, Hypocrites and true Believers.
Though, capacity of their temperament
wants to learn the good things quickly. On the contrary, the villagers are more
uncivilized. Therefore, we can observe the difference between inhabitants of
the city and the village every day. Even then; above three kinds of people
exist into them. In this verse, common condition of the wandering Arabs
(villagers) has been described.
It is commanded that usually
inhabitants of the villages are more hard on their old habits. There are a few
people into them who can understand the matters of higher level. While
infidelity and hypocrisy has been in force into them; then now; they have held
severely these habits and have become expert in both. Their natures have become
so, that they are very slow in learning new principles and manners.
They are not capable of
learning such formal Rules and Regulations which Allah Almighty has sent down
by means of His last Messenger (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam).
But God Almighty is Aware of miseries of entire people’s natures and their
capacities. And He treats every individual according to everyone’s capability
and intelligence. Therefore, difficult works are not for them (villagers).
Moreover, even such higher ranks will not be given to them which are for the
wise and affable ones.
It is known from this verse
that environments and surroundings take part to correct the temperament of the
human being. By living with civilized people, a man gets utmost maturity. We
learnt from it that correction of environment is most important item for
education and training.
