58. And of them are those who defameth thee in
the matter of the alms. So if they are given thereof they are content, and if
they are not given thereof, behold! They are enraged.
59. (How much more seemly) had they been
pleased with that which Allah and His Messenger had given them and had said:
Allah sufficeth us, Allah will give us of His Bounty, and (also) His
Messenger and unto Allah we are suppliants.

Lesson
Yal-mizu – (they defame, reproach), this
word is from lam-zun, which means “to stick any pointed thing in”, it
also means “to find faults in other’s work, to resolve on mischief, taunting
and slandering etc.”
One more
habit of the selfish Hypocrites has been described in these verses. It was told
in the previous verses that: They have to flatter you for the purpose that;
lest you know not their actual condition, otherwise they will live nowhere. If they
find any other place for hiding themselves, they will lurk immediately, turning
away from you. After that, their other habit has been disclosed here.
It is
commanded that when Messenger of God Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and
peace be upon Him) distributes alms, they say: He (grace, glory, blessings and
peace be upon Him) gives to them only who are His own (companions and relatives
etc.), and does not bear equal to all in mind.
But if
they are given according to their will, then they are content, if not given,
then again they begin to tell the same lies. It was better for them if they had
trust in God Almighty and in the justice of His Messenger (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon Him); and had been content on that whatever was
given to them. But they are at a great distance from it.
Magnificence
of the Believers is very higher than their imagination. They are seekers of God’s
willingness in all conditions and are inclined to Him only, and they remain
content by accepting the grant of the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and
peace be upon Him) happily.
