In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Conclusion from Al-Tabari’s interpretation
It was summarized by Dr. Aqeel bin Salem Al-Shammari
Surat Al-Munafiqun
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
If hypocrites come to you
They said, “We bear witness that you are the Messenger of God.”
And God knows that you are His Messenger
And God bears witness that hypocrites are liars
If the hypocrites come to you, O Muhammad
They said with their tongues, “We bear witness that you are the Messenger of God.”
And God knows that you are His Messenger
The hypocrites said that or they did not say that
And God bears witness that the hypocrites are liars when they tell themselves about themselves
This is because she does not think so and does not believe in it
They are lying when they tell her about that
They took their right hand as a garden and turned away from the path of God
What they were doing was bad
The hypocrites took their oath as a shield and a cover with which to cover themselves
They protect themselves, their descendants, and their money with it
And they push it away
So they turned away from the religion of God with which He sent His Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace
And His law that He legislated for His creation
These are hypocrites who have taken their right hand as a shield
What they did in this world was bad because they took their right hand as a paradise
Because of their lies, hypocrisy, and other matters
That is because they believed and then disbelieved, and it was sealed on their hearts so they do not understand
Indeed, what these hypocrites did was evil, who took their right hand as a shield
Because they believed God and His Messenger
Then they disbelieved because they doubted that and denied it
So God placed a seal on their hearts of disbelief from faith
They do not understand right from wrong and right from wrong
God has sealed their hearts
And if you see them, you like their bodies
And if they say, you listen to what they say
As if they were supported wood
They count every shout at them
They are the enemy, so beware of them
God fought them
Will they not understand?
And if you see these hypocrites, O Muhammad
You like their bodies
For her good character and good looks
And if they speak, you hear their words
Their logic is similar to people's logic
It is as if these hypocrites are supported by wood
They have no good, no jurisprudence, and no knowledge
But they are images without dreams
And mindless ghosts
These hypocrites are considered to be evil
Their mistrust and lack of certainty
Every shout is on them
Because they are afraid that God will descend upon them
Something that will tear their veils and expose them
He permits believers to kill them
He captured their descendants and took their money
Understand their fear of that
Everything that was revealed to them from God was revealed to His Messenger
They thought that He had descended upon them and destroyed them
They are the enemy, O Muhammad, so beware of them
When they meet you, their tongues will be with you
And their hearts are against you, along with your enemies
They are the eyes of your enemies upon you
May God disgrace them
In what way do they turn away from the truth?
And when it is said to them, “Come,” he will ask forgiveness for you
The Messenger of God twisted their heads
And I saw them repelled while they were arrogant
And if it is said to these hypocrites
Come to the Messenger of God to ask forgiveness for you
They moved their heads and shook them mockingly
By the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
And asking for his forgiveness
I saw them turning away from what they were called to
They are arrogant about fate
To the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
To ask forgiveness for them
It is the same for them. I ask forgiveness for them
Or did you not ask forgiveness for them?
God will not forgive them
God does not guide the rebellious people
Equal, O Muhammad, to these hypocrites who were told
Come, may the Messenger of God ask forgiveness for you
Did you ask forgiveness for their sins or not?
God will not forgive them for their sins
Rather, he punishes them for it
God does not enable faith
The people who lie about him and disbelieve in him
Those who disobey him
They are the ones who say: Do not spend on what is from the Messenger of God
Until they shake off
To God belongs the treasures of the heavens and the earth
But hypocrites do not understand
They are the ones who tell their friends
Do not spend on those of the Messenger of God from among his immigrant companions
Until they separate from him
To God belongs everything that is in the heavens and the earth
And in his hands are the keys to those safes
No one can give anything to anyone except by His will
But hypocrites do not understand
That's why they say
Do not spend on those with the Messenger of God until they disperse
They say because we return to the city
Let the more honorable bring out the meaner
Glory belongs to God, to His Messenger, and to the believers
But the hypocrites do not know
These are the hypocrites whose description was described before
Because we return to the city
They will bring out the toughest and strongest ones, the meanest ones
Strength and strength belong to God, to His Messenger, and to the believers in God
But hypocrites do not know that
O you who have believed, do not be distracted by your wealth
Nor do your children neglect the remembrance of God
And whoever does that, those are the losers
O you who have believed God and His Messenger
Neither your wealth nor your children make it necessary for you to divert from the remembrance of God
And whoever distracts his wealth and children from the remembrance of God
These are the ones who are deprived of their share of the honor and mercy of God, Blessed and Most High
And spend from what We have provided for you before death comes to one of you
He says, “Lord, if you had not delayed me for a short time.”
So be honest and be among the righteous
God will not delay a soul when its time has come
And God is aware of what you do
And spend, O believers in God and His Messenger, from the money We have provided for you
Before death comes to one of you and says:
O Lord, will you not delay me and grant me the term for a short time?
So I purify my wealth, work in obedience to You, and perform Your duties
God will not delay anyone’s lifespan and extend it to him if his time comes
But he picks it
God is experienced and knowledgeable about the actions of His servants
It is all encompassing and nothing is hidden from it
He rewards them with it, the benefactor with his goodness and the evildoer with his evil
