The quarrelsome who swears in all matters (L-258)
|
وَمِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن يُعْجِبُكَ قَوْلُهُۥ فِى ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ
ٱلدُّنْيَا وَيُشْهِدُ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ مَا فِى قَلْبِهِۦ وَهُوَ أَلَدُّ
ٱلْخِصَامِ204. |

204. Wa minan-naasi many-yu’-jibuka
qawluhuu fil-hayaatid-dunyaa wa yush-hidUllaaha ‘alaa
maa fii qalbihii, wa huwa ‘aladdul-khisaam. |

204. Among the people is he whose speech about the worldly
life impresses you, and he calls God to witness what is in his heart, while
he is the most hostile of adversaries. |
Wa minan-naasi – (some people), it is not necessary that from the word ‘some’ it aims only one individual. It may be one as well as many people of the same nature.
Qawluhuu – (his conversation), that is to say; his claim that he is ready to sacrifice himself in the way of Islam, because he has much love with Islam.
Fil-hayaatid-dunyaa – (in the affairs of the life of this world), it aims to disclose from the word Fii that he has to acquire the world by his eloquence and speech, not the Hereafter. He tells a lie in worldly affairs, as though; there is no one wise and learned more than him.
Yush-hidUllaahu – (he calls God to witness), namely he (sacrilegious person) tries to cause to believe using the name of God to express strong feeling. It aims from his making swear that he sets witness to God on his statement.
Before it, we have recited about the Pilgrimage in which it was described that some unlucky people run behind the world. They are totally straying of good results of the Hereafter. But the pious people beg for the world as well as for the Hereafter and ask for refuge from the torture of the Hell.
With effect from this verse, the recitation concerning unlucky and treacherous persons begins. They talk with sweet conversation. Apparently they speak with sense, but they are the most rigid of opponents and quarrelsome. The Occasion of Revelation regarding this verse has been mentioned that there was a person named ‘Akhnas bin Shareeq of Saqeef tribe. Openly, he seemed much devouring sorrow and sympathizer of Islam. He used to claim through his tongue much love for Islam. He used to come in the conference of the Messenger (ﷺ) and claim much long and wide, used to swear in his discourse. But whenever he used to leave that place, then he used to begin backbiting and mischief, and think plans to harm Islam. It seems apparently that this verse was revealed for that individual. But it applies to all such people, who have such nature. More signs of these kinds of hypocrites will be stated in the leading verses. Here; specialty of the hypocrite has been described that he binds many claims by his tongue, causes to believe in words that he is a believer, but in fact; he is the most rigid of opponents, keeps enmity with Islam and Its Followers, and tries to harm them..jpg)
