Commentary
Taa-‘atum-ma’-ruufah – (known obedience is better,
such obedience is known, Obey as it should be), that is to say, you should obey
the commandments practically also as common Muslims obey. There is no need of
swearing by Allaah your so much strong oaths. The Hypocrites are
peculiar people. Apparently they show their humility and covenant by their
tongues strongly. But when the time of action comes, then they avoid and turn
away stealthily. It was the condition of some time-servers of Madinah. They
had faith in it that “the people who had embraced Islam with true hearts, were
foolish and had been taken in. After a few days, the entire distraction of
Islam would kiss the ground, and then only they would be present along with
their luxurious enjoyment”. But they were so much clever that they did not wish
to cut off their relationship with Muslims, because they (the Muslims) were
getting victory everywhere. Although they used to consider that victory of the
Muslims was a temporary matter, even then they used to effect their purpose by
choosing the way of time serving.
When they used to come unto the Messenger (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon him), they used to swear by Allaah their
strongest oaths and say: Your Highness! We are your obedient servants. If you
command us at the spot for fighting, we shall move forthwith and put the
enemies out of their senses.
It is commanded: Say to them! Don’t swear so much strongly! The
same obedience is required from you also which is a custom of obedience among
other Muslims. They do not swear their strongest oaths. Without saying a word,
they get ready at the time of every trouble. Remember it! Your affair is with Allaah
Almighty. Indeed, He is Well Acquainted with that which you do.
