Commentary
Nutakhattaf – {we would be
swept (carried off)}, this word has come out from takhattufun, which
means “to take away, to be swept”.
It is part of the previous verse. Allaah Almighty commands: When they hear vanity they withdraw from it
and get rid of those who do useless works; saying to them: “For us are our
deeds, and for you are your deeds. We say, forgive us, peace be upon you. We
don’t wish to keep any relationship with those who do not use their sense”.
In these verses, it
has been indicated towards those four persons who were from the People of the
Scripture, came from Syria and Abyssinia (name of a Country situated in
Africa), and they embraced Islam after hearing the Revelations of Holy Qur’an. When they were returning, the
people of Makkah made insinuations
about them, and they replied the same which has been mentioned in this verse.
Messenger of Allaah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings
and peace be upon him) used to grieve that the people come from foreign
Countries and embrace Islam, but his own relatives do not admit his Sayings. In
this regard, it is commanded: O Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be
upon him): You cannot guide whom you like. Your responsibility is to convey the
Message of Allaah Almighty only. That
will find guidance to whom He wills.
One objection of the
Infidels of Makkah was that: O
Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him): All people of Arab
will exile us from this Country if we shall obey your Sayings and follow the
teachings of your Islam.
