Disconnection from hypocrites

Chapter Tawbah (Repentance) – Surah – 9)

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

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

فَإِن رَّجَعَكَ ٱللَّهُ إِلَىٰ طَآئِفَةٍ مِّنْهُمْ فَٱسْتَـْٔذَنُوكَ لِلْخُرُوجِ فَقُل لَّن تَخْرُجُوا۟ مَعِىَ أَبَدًا وَلَن تُقَٰتِلُوا۟ مَعِىَ عَدُوًّا إِنَّكُمْ رَضِيتُم بِٱلْقُعُودِ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ فَٱقْعُدُوا۟مَعَ ٱلْخَٰلِفِينَ 83

83.  If Allah bring thee back (from the campaign) unto a party of them and they ask of thee leave to go out (to fight), then say unto them: Ye shall never more go out with me nor fight with me against a foe. Ye were content with sitting still the first time; so sit still, with those who remain behind.

Commentary

When any big work is required to be performed for welfare of the nation, generally it happens that some people from us are inclined to oppose it. If we really wish to do that work, then its best method is that we should never quarrel with the opponents, but try to bring together our fellow-sufferers and supporters, and increase our collective strength. Leave the opponents at their circumstances and let them do whatever they wish.

It has been described in this verse that if, after opposing first time, they want to keep very intimate terms with you, for their timely interest, then in the next time, you should be very careful, from having trust in them and being mixed with them. If your companions are strong then this behavior is sufficient to shake their foundation.

It is commanded that you must neither say to them something at your own and nor hear, but continue to strengthen and unite your group every time. But O Messenger (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam)! Whenever, if you go unto them by chance, and their some intelligent people welcome You after observing that the effort of the Muslims is successful, and they ask of Your permission to go out for fighting along with the Muslims, then You should say to them: “When there was occasion and necessity of your joining us, at that time, you sat still along with those who were sitting still and remained behind. Now, while we are not indigent of yours then why are you going to benefit us by suffering from trouble unnecessarily? Our purpose will be effected without you now”. It is better to be careful from deceitful people in such a way that one should not be entangled with them, but do one’s own duty.

Commentary

It becomes most difficult to overpower the deceitful people, that is to say, internal Hypocrites of the country, particularly at that time when external enemies uplift them. They claim that original well-wishers of the country are only they. And the country can revive at such time when their government is established.

The Hypocrites of Madinah were the people of such kind. They wished to finish the Muslims by conspiring with the external enemies, whereas they were their nation-fellow and country-fellow. But the Muslims had Unseen Support and they had to bruise their country’s external enemies. The Battle of Tabuuk was a preface of it that they should produce form of safety from foreigners/external enemies.

It was not acceptable to the Hypocrites. They were desirous of opposing to it that “the Syrians should attack on our country and ruin the Muslims, and then we should prosper, and with their strength; we sing for joy, being contented and independent.

At that time, Islam produced such a treatment for those Hypocrites, which is not only being accepted, nowadays, but being followed by the whole world. Such treatment was that the Hypocrites should be left at their own condition, and the well-wishers and sincere people should be united on a center. Next time, the Hypocrites will sit down automatically.

It is commanded that they don’t want to go forth for battle due to hot weather, just leave them and inform the sincere people that it is the right time of sacrificing financially as well as lives. Be ready and say to Hypocrites: You just stay escaped from summer season and take rest in shelters. Keep your wealth in safe custody. Neither we need your wealth and nor your lives, but remember it that this comfort is ordinary. In the next, you would have to suffer from its retribution. Today, which laughter you have on your lips, it is just for a short time. In the next life, you will have nothing except crying due to its retaliation. But the heat! O enemies of the sense! The heat of the Fire of the Hell is much more intense than this heat. This heat is ordinary, it will be finished, but that is perpetual which will never leave you.

From this, it is known that well-doers should plan to increase their strength. Quarreling with opponents is nothing but just wastage of time. If the sincere people are united then the Hypocrites will sit down at their own.

Quran Chapter 9 – 81a (Pt-10, Stg-2) (L-1221) - درس قرآن

“Jihad” is the trial of the hypocrite

Chapter Tawbah (Repentance) – Surah – 9)

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

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

فَرِحَ ٱلْمُخَلَّفُونَ بِمَقْعَدِهِمْ خِلَٰفَ رَسُولِ ٱللَّهِ وَكَرِهُوٓا۟ أَن يُجَٰهِدُوا۟ بِأَمْوَٰلِهِمْ وَأَنفُسِهِمْ فِى سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ وَقَالُوا۟ لَا تَنفِرُوا۟ فِى ٱلْحَرِّ  81a  

81a.  Those who were left behind rejoiced at sitting still behind the Messenger of Allah, and were averse to striving with their wealth and their lives in Allah’s Way, and they said: Go not forth in the heat!

81a.  Farihal-mukhalla-fuuna  bimaq-‘adihim  khilaafa  RasuuLillaahi  wa kari-huuu  ‘any-yu-jaahiduu  bi-‘amwaali-him  wa  ‘anfu-sihim  fii  Sabii-Lillaahi  wa  qaaluu  laa  tanfi-ruu  fil-harr.

Commentary

In the collective development of the nation, the Hypocrites interrupt as much that it is not committed by any other. Apparently these people show that they are with you (the community), also they remain ahead than others in acknowledging one’s superiority without understanding. But their hearts hate the collective activities. Resultantly, when any important occasion of congregational work comes, at that time; they desire to keep aloof from supporting the community by making lame excuses and evade in such a way, which cannot be given any importance by a sincere person.

They neither wish to provide any financial aid for public welfare works and nor bear any physical trouble, although they reap advantages of various sorts by the means of community, but keep conspiracy with external enemies against it. And often they persuade them that “Attack on our country, we shall help you (the enemies) and leaving the people of own country, we shall join you openly”.

Nowadays too, nearly every country is facing such people. And in the beginning of Islam, the Muslims had to bear many troubles and hardships due to this kind of people. However, because national and congregational balance was weighty, due to which; they were defeated; otherwise they had left no stone unturned from their side to ruin the Muslims. It has been explained in this verse that, what they did at the time of preparation for the Battle of Tabuuk.

It is commanded that their hearts were never with the Muslims. At such occasion, when it was demanded that they should sacrifice their lives and wealth (both) for supporting the nation and go forth, then their spirits were left and by making excuses, they came unto the Messenger (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam) for taking permission to stay at home.

Messenger of Allah Almighty (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam) permitted them considering that they were speaking the truth. Then they were very happy and began to say the people: Who have told you to travel in the deserts and forests during such hot weather?

Consider thoughtfully for a while, the entire nation is trying collectively to save their honor and name, and these people are thinking about hot and cold. Such people are selfish who prevent the nation from going forth, only for their temporary comfort and ease.

Quran Chapter 9 – 80 (Pt-10, Stg-2) (L-1220) - درس قرآن

Belief is the Condition for Forgiveness

Chapter Tawbah (Repentance) – Surah – 9)

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

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

ٱسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُمْ أَوْ لَا تَسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُمْ إِن تَسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُمْ سَبْعِينَ مَرَّةً فَلَن يَغْفِرَ ٱللَّهُ لَهُمْ ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ كَفَرُوا۟ بِٱللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِۦ وَٱللَّهُ لَا يَهْدِى ٱلْقَوْمَ ٱلْفَٰسِقِينَ 80

80.  Ask forgiveness for them (O Muhammad), or ask not forgiveness for them; though thou ask forgiveness for them seventy times Allah will not forgive them. That is because they disbelieved in Allah and His Messenger. And Allah guideth not wrongdoing folk.

80.  ‘Istagfir  lahum  ‘aw  laa  tas-tagfir  lahum.  ‘In  tastagfir  lahum  sab-’iina  marratan  falany-yagfi-rAllaahu  lahum.  Zaalika bi-‘annahum  kafaruu  Billaahi  wa  RasuuliH.  Wallaahu  laa  yahdil-  qawmal-faasiqiin.

Commentary

The Hypocrites molested the Muslims very much in Madinah. These unlucky people used to stir the public against Islam. But whenever they were asked, they used to belie clearly. It was far from the manners of Allah’s Messenger (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam) that he would have punished someone due to only doubt; without proof.

At last, when their evil techniques crossed the line, then it was revealed in the Holy Qur-‘aan for information about their (Hypocrites) wicked deeds. Therefore, mention about their impostures and iniquities have been running with effect from previous verses. In this verse, it is indicated that the Messenger (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam) should reduce social relationship with them.

It is commanded that their evil habits have crossed the line. Supplication for their forgiveness is useless. They have been accursed by Heaven. If you ask forgiveness for them seventy times, even then Allah Almighty will not forgive them. What; if they claim before you that they are Muslims, they do not believe in their hearts. Neither they believe in Allah Almighty, nor in the Messenger (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam). They disobey the Commands of God Almighty fearless, and as soon as they go out of screen, deny the Messenger (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam) publicly. While their hearts do not believe in Allah Almighty and His Messenger (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam), then which thing can prevent them from arrogance in Their Grace. God Almighty does not show Guidance to those people who disobey His Commands fearless.

The Commentators explain that Messenger (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam) understood from this verse that it has been indicated that interaction with the Hypocrites should be reduced. Even then, when after revelation of this verse, Abdullah bin Ubayy died, the Messenger (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam) prayed for his forgiveness and offered his funeral prayer.

Umar (May Allah be pleased with him) caused to draw attention of the Messenger (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam) towards this verse. He (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam) said: It is Will of Allah Almighty, forgive him or otherwise. I have not been prevented clearly, therefore, being a Muslim, I ask forgiveness for him. Then another verse was revealed; in which, it was prevented clearly. After that, Messenger of Allah Almighty (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam) asked never forgiveness for the Hypocrites.

Sign of hypocrisy

Chapter Tawbah (Repentance) – Surah – 9)

 

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

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

 

أَلَمْ يَعْلَمُوٓا۟ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَعْلَمُ سِرَّهُمْوَنَجْوَىٰهُمْ وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلَّٰمُ ٱلْغُيُوبِ 78

 

 ٱلَّذِينَ يَلْمِزُونَ ٱلْمُطَّوِّعِينَ مِنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ فِى ٱلصَّدَقَٰتِ وَٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَجِدُونَ إِلَّا جُهْدَهُمْ فَيَسْخَرُونَ مِنْهُمْ سَخِرَ ٱللَّهُ مِنْهُمْ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ 79

 

78.  Know they not that Allah knoweth their hidden secret and their whispering, secret and that Allah is the Knower of Things Hidden.   79.  Those who point at such of the believers as give the alms willingly and such as can find naught to give but their endeavours, and deride them. Allah (Himself) derideth them; and theirs will be a painful doom.

78.  ‘Alam  ya’-lamuuu  ‘annAllaaha  ya’-lamu  sirra-hum  wa  naj-waahum  wa  ‘annAllaaha  ‘Allaamul-guyuub.    79.  ‘Allaziina  yalmi-zuunal-mut-tawwi-‘iina  minal-  Mu’-miniina  fis-sadaqaati  wallaziina  laa  yajiduuna  ‘illaa  juhdahum  fa-yaskharuuna  minhum.  Sakhi-rAllaahu  minhum  wa  lahum  ‘azaabun  ‘aliim.

 

Commentary

 

‘Al-mut-tawwi-‘iina – (giving alms with open heart, being generous), this word is plural of mutawwi-‘un. Its origin is taw’. Taw’ means “to perform any work wholeheartedly and pleasantly whether that is not incumbent”. ‘Ittawwa-‘un is another form of tatawwa-‘un, and this word has passed in Surah ‘Al-Baqarah.

 

Specific recognition of the Hypocrites is that they want to keep good their apparent conduct; so that everyone remain happy from them. And apparently; by keeping all people satisfied, they prepare extreme schemes of evil against any individual or people.

 

When their planning is disclosed, then they appease the opponents by wheedling. But they consider that they have kept them befooled, and their hidden secrets cannot be known by anyone. Only Allah Almighty is Aware of their hidden secrets.

 

It has been commanded in this verse that those people do not believe in Allah Almighty, because they are fearless that nobody knows their hidden secrets. While; only Allah Almighty knows that which is hidden in the hearts and they have denied Him, then from whom they would have to fear? Backbiting against the people should be their habit in such circumstances.

 

Therefore, the Hypocrites say about them who give alms with open heart that “They have lost their senses. They die for celebrity show and wish that they should be praised”. And whoever gives alms in accordance with his extent, they say about him: Applying blood on body, he considers “My name is included in martyrs”.

 

Those people should understand carefully that Allah Almighty has loosened them. He knows their secrets and consequently they will be seized in severe torment, but they have been deceived from apparent condition of the world and do not know that they have been cutting their own root.
