Commentary

Murjawna – (who await decree), it is the passive participle. Actually this word is murjaa-‘uuna, but for reciting, it has been shortened. Its origin is ‘irjaa-‘un, which means “to postpone, putting off for any other next time”. Foundation of this word is raja’’a. Raja-‘un means hope, expectation. ‘Irjaa-‘un means “to keep in expectation, awaiting”.

Ziraarun – (to cause dissent any other), this word has been derived from zarar, which means “damage, loss”. Another form of this word is muzaarratun. Both words mean “to harm someone else”.

‘Irsaadun – (to waylay, to lie in ambush), this word has come out from rasad. Rasad means “ambush, trick”. ‘Irsaadun means “to help in waylaying, to provide a separate place”.

Since long; it is being described about those people who did not participate in the Battle of Tabuuk. Some of them were Hypocrites and some were sincere Muslims; who did not join the Army before departure. Among the Muslims there were two kinds of people:

1.   Those who were ashamed immediately and punished themselves. He (May Allah be pleased with him) was Abu Labaabah, who fastened himself tightly with the pillar of Masjid (Mosque). And he said: Only Messenger of God Almighty (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam) will unfasten me after returning.

2.   There were three such persons who neither did announce of being ashamed and nor did they repent. Description about them will be explained later.

There were some other people who built another Masjid leaving Masjid Qubaa; and tried to cause dissent among the Muslims. These were hidden enemies of the Muslims. Abu Amer tried to determine this Masjid as his abode, so that he may make plans to molest the Muslims; sitting there. He was a Christian monk, who fought against Muslims in every battle along with the Infidels.

أَلَمْ يَعْلَمُوٓا۟ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ يَقْبَلُ ٱلتَّوْبَةَ عَنْ عِبَادِهِۦ وَيَأْخُذُ ٱلصَّدَقَٰتِ وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلتَّوَّابُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ 104  وَقُلِٱعْمَلُوا۟ فَسَيَرَى ٱللَّهُ عَمَلَكُمْ وَرَسُولُهُۥ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَسَتُرَدُّونَ إِلَىٰ عَٰلِمِ ٱلْغَيْبِ وَٱلشَّهَٰدَةِ فَيُنَبِّئُكُم بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ 105  

104.  Know they not that Allah is He Who accepteth Repentance from His bondmen and taketh the alms, and that Allah is He Who is the Relenting, the Merciful. 105.  And say (unto them): Act! Allah will behold your actions, and (so will) His Messenger and the Believers. And ye will be brought back to the Knower of the Invisible and the Visible, then He will tell you what ye used to do.

104.  ‘A-lam  ya’-lamuuu  ‘annAllaaha  Huwa  yaqba-lut-TAWBATA  ‘an  ‘ibaadiHii  wa  ya’-khuzus-sadaqaati  wa  ‘annAllaaha  Huwat-Tawwaabur-Rahiim. 105.  Wa  quli’-maluu  fasaya-rAllaahu  ‘amalakum  wa  RasuuluHuu  wal-Mu’-minuun.  Wa  satu-rad-duuna  ‘ilaa  ‘Aalimil-gaybi  wash-shahaadati  fa-yunabbi-‘ukum-  bimaa  kuntum  ta’-maluun.

Commentary

‘As-sadaqaati – (the alms), this word is plural of sadaqatun, which has passed in the verse before this. The origin of this word is sadaqa. Two words from it are famous –sidq and sadaaqat. The first word means “the truth” and the second word aims “well-wishing and friendship”.

The truth and the friendship have deep relationship with each other. The friend is he whose heart is true and open. Sadaqah is the thing which is given happily, truly and being well-wisher to someone else for fulfilling his requirement. One more word saduqah has been derived from the same origin which means mahar, which is given to the bride at the time of her wedding. However, here it aims – duty, alms and the work of supererogation.

Those people know who believe that Allah Almighty accepts repentance, supplication and alms of the people Himself, and He is Kind directly to His bondmen. It is commanded in this verse that the human beings should know that they are directly connected with Allah Almighty. Which works will they perform for His Cause, He will accept them.

He commands also: Say unto them! Perform good works. Certainly Allah beholds your every deed, however, His Messenger (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam) and all Believers will see also. You will be treated in the world according to your actions. At last; you will be produced before Allah Almighty. He knows your entire secret and open matters. He will tell you that what the result of your worldly actions is, and what is their retribution.

(I seek refuge in Allaah from Satan the outcast)

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

خُذْ مِنْ أَمْوَٰلِهِمْ صَدَقَةًتُطَهِّرُهُمْ وَتُزَكِّيهِم بِهَا وَصَلِّ عَلَيْهِمْ إِنَّ صَلَوٰتَكَ سَكَنٌ لَّهُمْ وَٱللَّهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ 103

103.  Take alms of their wealth, wherewith thou mayst purify them and mayst make them grow, and pray for them. Lo! Thy prayer is an assuagement for them. And Allah is Hearer, Knower.

103.  Khuz  min  ‘amwaalihim  sadaqatan-  tutahhiru-hum  wa  tuzakki-him  bihaa  wa  salli  ‘alay-him.  ‘Inna  salaataka  sakanul-lahum.  Wallaahu  Samii-‘un  ‘Aliim.

Commentary

Tutahhiru – (you may purify), origin of this word is tat-hiir, which means “to purify”. Its base is tahara. Two other words from it - tahar and tahaarat are more used. Meaning of these both words are “cleanliness and elegance”.

Tuzakkii – {you may make (them) grow}, its origin is taz-kiyah, which means “to increase, to enlarge”. Zakaat is a famous word from its origin, which means “alms, to give money to any needy person from own wealth”. It is cause of increasing the wealth. And it is called “making grow (barakah)”. Zakaat (paying the poor-due) is cause of increasing the wealth and making it grown.

It was discussed in the previous lesson that many servants of Allah Almighty are those who believe in God and the Hereafter heartily. But the errors are committed by them also. Such people should repent immediately (without further delay) and do good works, because performing good is expiation of errors.

One particular good work has been mentioned in this verse, due to which; the sins are forgiven and the condition of the society is set off. And the common people do not indulge in sins due to poverty and starvation.

It is commanded: You should take alms from their earnings for the necessitous people, because alms will purify them from their errors and the people will become more prosperous. Prosperity of the people provides opportunity of calling them unto good works.

Then you should pray for them also, because their hearts will be satisfied when you will supplicate for them; as well as they will think: “Allah Almighty and His Messenger (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam) are our Supporters. One (God) is causing to rain on us of His Mercy and the Other {God’s Messenger (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam)} is supplicating for our betterment”.

Passion of doing good and giving alms and charity will grow in their hearts, and their mutual co-operation will increase. They will wish to do good works more and more, and will find occasion of talking about good matters altogether too. Allah Almighty is Hearer of all these matters and Knower of intentions hidden in the hearts. He will guide them unto the Straight Path of goodness, and He will be Merciful on them.

102.  And (there are) others who have acknowledged their faults; they mixed a righteous action with another that was bad. It may be that Allah will relent towards them. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

Commentary

The Muslims are being informed about the circumstances of common people; who have embraced Islam. It was told in the previous verse that from them, some wandering Arabs and some those people who live in Madinah city, have not accepted Islam with their hearts. Apparently they talk as the Muslims, but their hearts are empty from the Belief.

They meet the Muslims regularly, but at different occasions; they talk with such words, due to which the Muslims are at a loss. Their outward Islam will not be useful. These evil-minded people will reach their recompense for the evil done. Once they will be given faulty fruit against their hypocrisy in this world. Second time uneasiness will be for them in the grave; and their wicked deeds will keep them entangled in pain and suffering by adopting frightful forms. And at last; third time; they will become the stock for the Fire of the Hell.

It has been described in this verse that there are some such people in the Muslims also who believe in Allah Almighty heartily and obey the Sayings of His Messenger (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam) having faith that He is Rightful. But due to natural weakness, any error occurs by them. And when they return to sense and understanding, then they repent due to their sin; being abashed, and admit their error and renounce for future. But again, the Devil entraps them and they commit any mistake, then again they repent. Similarly, these people use to perform and commit good and bad deeds respectively, because correct Belief exists in their hearts. Therefore, it is hoped that Allah Almighty will forgive their errors and provide them refuge in the Vicinity of His Mercy, because His Forgiveness and Mercy is very vast.

It seems that maximum Muslims are included in this category. They should remain far from polytheism, and if they have committed any error due to human natural tendencies, then immediately; they should be present in the Court of Allah Almighty and ask for forgiveness by imploring earnestly and humbly, repent with true heart; and disobey not intentionally. Hope that Allah Almighty will forgive their errors.

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

وَمِمَّنْ حَوْلَكُم مِّنَ ٱلْأَعْرَابِ مُنَٰفِقُونَ وَمِنْ أَهْلِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ مَرَدُوا۟ عَلَى ٱلنِّفَاقِ لَا تَعْلَمُهُمْ نَحْنُ نَعْلَمُهُم  . سَنُعَذِّبُهُم مَّرَّتَيْنِ ثُمَّ يُرَدُّونَ إِلَىٰ عَذَابٍ عَظِيمٍ 101  

101.  And among those around you of the wandering Arabs there are hypocrites, and among the townspeople of Al-Madinah (there are some who) persist in hypocrisy whom thou (O Muhammad) knowest not. We know them. Then We shall chastise them twice; then they will be relegated to a painful doom.

101.  Wa  mim-man  haw-lakum-minal-‘A’-raabi  Munaafiquun.  Wa  min  ‘ahlil-Madiinati  maraduu-  ‘alan-nifaaq.  Laa  ta’-lamuhum.  Nahnu  Na’-lamuhum.  SaNu-‘azzi-buhum-marra-tayni  summa  yuradduuna  ‘ilaa  ‘azaabin  ‘Aziim.

Commentary

Maraduu – (they persist), this word has been made from marada. From the same origin, one more word tamarrad has been derived, which is a famous word. Marada means “rebellion, refractoriness”, result of which is “to persist in any matter unreasonably”. In the word tamarrad; these meanings are very clear i.e. disobeying the command haughtily.

Habits and nature of the wandering Arabs (villagers) were disclosed in the previous verses, that they fear from those restrictions; which are incurred by Islam; particularly they shirk from expending their money. Then, it was described that some wandering Arabs are those who are civilized and they believe in Allah Almighty and expend for the Cause of God Almighty with generosity and consider it a means of God’s pleasure and acquiring blessings of His Messenger (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam). Certainly, sacrifices, alms and charities of those Believers will bring them close to Allah Almighty.

In this verse, circumstances of the population of Madinah and its surroundings have been described. It is commanded that some people among the wandering Arabs who are around you, are hypocrites, but apparently they show themselves as Muslims. And there are many people in Madinah also; who persist in hypocrisy.

Observing their apparent style and behavior, it is difficult to say that they are only ostensive Muslims, but Allah Almighty knows their all conditions. They will be punished twice:

1.   They will be disgraced and entangled in worldly calamities. Then they will be suffering from torture in their graves.

2.   After all, they will be thrown into the biggest Torture Cell – the Fire of the Hell; on the Day of Resurrection.

It signifies that becoming apparent Muslim for the purpose of any worldly desire; cannot be saved lastly from the punishment. For obtaining deliverance, Belief in the heart is very necessary.

Commentary

Those people who did not value the commandments of God’s Last Messenger (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam), they lost their religion as well as relinquished from their world too within a few days. But some people ran straightway as soon as they heard the voice of God’s obedient Servant and His Last Messenger (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam) saying Labbayk, and they gripped up their loins for His (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam) help. After that, other people followed them also, and they began to enter in the circle of Islam one by one. They got success in the world and in the Hereafter too; they deserved favors and honors of God Almighty.

After describing the circumstances of the opposite people, in this verse; conditions of those people have been explained who accepted the invitation of Islam. There were some classes into them also. Some of them were those who embraced Islam as soon as they heard, but some people were those who entered in Islam slowly and gradually.

It is commanded: Those first people; who led for entering in Islam; as soon as they heard the Voice of the Caller (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam), some of which people were Emigrants of Makkah and some Inhabitants of Madinah, plus those, who entered in Islam one by one sincerely and honestly after them, Allah Almighty is well pleased with all of them and they are well pleased with Allah Almighty. That is to say; Allah Almighty liked their purity and honesty, and leaving everything they also got support of Allah Almighty. They got ready to suffer from difficulties in His obedience. For all of them; God Almighty has made the flourishing and green Gardens ready; underneath which rivers flow, wherein they will abide for ever. In fact it is the biggest success.
