Lesson
‘Al-mut-tawwi-‘iina
– (giving
alms with open heart, being generous), this word is plural of mutawwi-‘un.
Its origin is taw’. Taw’ means “to perform any work
wholeheartedly and pleasantly whether that is not incumbent”. ‘Ittawwa-‘un
is another form of tatawwa-‘un, and this word has passed in Surah ‘Al-Baqarah.
Specific recognition
of the Hypocrites is that they want to keep good their apparent conduct; so
that everyone remain happy from them. And apparently; by keeping all people satisfied,
they prepare extreme schemes of evil against any individual or people.
When their
planning is disclosed, then they appease the opponents by wheedling. But they
consider that they have kept them befooled, and their hidden secrets cannot be
known by anyone. Only Allah Almighty is Aware of their hidden secrets.
It has
been commanded in this verse that those people do not believe in Allah
Almighty, because they are fearless that nobody knows their hidden secrets. While;
only Allah Almighty knows that which is hidden in the hearts and they have
denied Him, then from whom they would have to fear? Backbiting against the
people should be their habit in such circumstances.
Therefore,
the Hypocrites say about them who give alms with open heart that “They have
lost their senses. They die for celebrity show and wish that they should be
praised”. And whoever gives alms in accordance with his extent, they say about
him: Applying blood on body, he considers “My name is included in martyrs”.
Those people
should understand carefully that Allah Almighty has loosened them. He knows
their secrets and consequently they will be seized in severe torment, but they
have been deceived from apparent condition of the world and do not know that
they have been cutting their own root.
