Result of disobeying the Messenger (ﷺ) (L-472)
|
إِذْ تُصْعِدُونَ وَلَا تَلْوُۥنَ عَلَىٰٓ أَحَدٍ وَٱلرَّسُولُ يَدْعُوكُمْ فِىٓ أُخْرَىٰكُمْ فَأَثَٰبَكُمْ غَمًّۢا بِغَمٍّ لِّكَيْلَا تَحْزَنُوا۟ عَلَىٰ مَا فَاتَكُمْ وَلَا مَآ أَصَٰبَكُمْ وَٱللَّهُ خَبِيرٌۢ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ 153. |

153. ‘Iz tus-‘iduuna wa laa
talwuuna ‘alaaa ‘ahadinw-war-Rasuulu yad-‘uukum
fiii ‘ukh-raakum fa-‘asaabakum
gam-mam-bi-gammil-li-kay-laa tah-zanuu ‘alaa maa
faatakum wa laa maaa ‘asaabakum. WAllaahu
Khabiirum-bimaa ta’-maluun. |

153. Remember when you fled, not caring for anyone, even
though the Messenger was calling you from your rear. Then He repaid you with
sorrow upon sorrow, so that you would not grieve over what you missed, or for
what afflicted you. God is Informed of what you do. |
‘Iz tus-‘iduuna – {When you climbed (the hill)}. This word has been made from the word Sa-‘uud, which means ‘to climb’. Here it signifies towards a specific scene of the Battle of ‘Uhud. It was the situation when the Idolaters of Makkah assaulted afresh, reaping advantage from the error of the archers in the Battle of ‘Uhud, and the Muslims had been running away and climbing the hills. They paid no heed to anyone in the hurley burley and the perplexity.
At that time, the Messenger of God (ﷺ) was staying as usual at his place and preventing the Muslims from such cowardice and confusion, and calling them towards himself. Eventually, when Ka’b bin Malik (May God be pleased with him) screamed, then they listened, returned and assembled around the Messenger of God (ﷺ).
Gam-mam-bi-gammin – (grief for (the) grief). In other words, it may also be explained as ‘grief over grief’. In this sentence, it has been indicated towards that particular condition, when the tokens of defeat were being seen after the victory. The Muslims had grief on one side because of loss of primary victory and sorrow on the other side because of death and being injured of their companions. Their third grief was a bad news being public about the murder of the Messenger (ﷺ). They had to bear also the loss of the spoils of war. In the stress and strain of such grief, they lost their senses, even that, they could not hear the voice of the Messenger (ﷺ).
God knows the intentions and deals with the affairs according to it. The archers did not wish to disobey, but they considered at their own that, “We have fulfilled the aim of the command of Messenger (ﷺ). Now, while we have got victory, we should also collect the spoils of war”. As though, they did not err intentionally. Therefore, God forgave them..jpg)
