Lesson
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.
