Folly of Hypocrites

 

Mischievous plans of Hypocrites (L–30)

11.        وَإِذا قيلَ لَهُم لا تُفسِدوا فِي الأَرضِ قالوا إِنَّما نَحنُ مُصلِحونَ  12.        أَلا إِنَّهُم هُمُ المُفسِدونَ وَلٰكِن لا يَشعُرونَ

11. Wa ‘izaa qiila lahum laa tuf-siduu fil-‘arzi, qaaluuu ‘in-namaa nahnu  muslihuun 12. ‘Alaaa  ‘innahum  humul-mufsi-duuna  walaakil-laa yash-‘uruun.

11. And when it is said to them, “Do not make trouble on earth,” they say, “We are only reformers.” 12. In fact, they are the troublemakers, but they are not aware.

Laa tuf-siduu – (Make not mischief), this word has come out from the word Fasaad -

(Quarrel; riot; disturbance; rebellion; war; sedition; mutiny etc.). Here the meanings of

“Make not mischief” are the wicked deeds which interrupt in the system. When these

circumstances become usual, these interrupt in the world peace and the system of the

universe. Fasaad is the biggest crime according to the teachings of Islam.

Muslihuun – (Peace-makers). This word has been derived from the word Salaah, which

is opposite to Fasaad. With ‘Fasaad’ the system is damaged and with ‘Salaah’ the

system is corrected.

Another worst mischievous cleverness of the Hypocrites is being disclosed in this verse. Remaining firm on any other false manner besides the Divine’s Law, and preaching for it is a big crime. And the Hypocrites use to do it. Now, they have begun spreading Fasaad (mischief) also including the creation of mismanagement. Behind the screen, conspiracy and showing themselves as friends; the enmity became their habit. The Heart disease overcame the Hypocrites so much that they forgot distinction among good and bad. Whenever they are instructed that they must not make mischief in this way of their acts in the country, they say, “We are peace-makers only. But indeed, they are mischief-makers. How it is a big mischief that the Infidels begin to suppose due to their hypocrisy that there is no excellence/beauty in Islam because being Muslims, these people are still involved in the evils. On the other hand, they tempt the Muslims by deceiving. They claim themselves that they are Muslims but have not fear of God in their hearts. Due to such behaviour, there is a threat that others will also forget God-Fearing.

It is found that good behaviour grows among the people by the Truth, which becomes cause of peace-making in the world. And the hypocrisy interrupts in the management of the world. When a person reaches this stage and does not understand his weakness, then the ruin seizes him. His wisdom and internal perception goes to an end.
