Tafsir Surat at-Tawba

استغفر الله

Open treacherous people and islam -  a witness by sura tauba.

Treachery is a big  sin in islam, and the biggest treachery is treachery against the prophet and Allah. Can there be a bigger treachery than this??
There were many treacherous people, hypocrites who were always ready to cut islam and cause harm to muslims, many were pretty open about it and muslims knew about them.
Today the extremist muslims have every kind of horrible punishments for them in ignorance of Quran and fulfill 25:30 � �the prophet will say O my lord my people treated the Quran as foolish nonsense/ as a joke/ as a thing to be discarded/rejected�
They do so as they don�t know one simple thing about islam, the most simple thing about islam, that we have to desire paradise for all and hope the sinner will change in future as the real challenge is between satan who wants everyone in hell and Allah who wants everyone to repent and be saved.
The case of open treacherous people is talked about in sura tauba in most clear verses, they were the people whom Prophet the mercy to mankind and other muslims knew clearly are enemies of islam.
Here are the verses and its explanations �
{9:65-66} � �If you ask them they will say we were just joking and playing with words, say would you make a mockery of Allah and of his revelations and of his messenger? Make no excuses, you rejected the faith after you accepted it, If we pardon some of you We will punish others for they are guilty�
Now if we see Allah has his witness to it {whose witness is bigger than that of Allah�s} that these men were, 1- making a mockery of Allah,  2- of his messenger, 3- of Quran, 4- are unrepentant and making excuses and defending their mockery, 5 � and have rejected Islam after accepting it.
How would the false scholars judge and treat such men?? We all know.
If we read it carefully it would seem Allah is asking prophet to punish them ie �say we will punish others��.but �we� used in this ayah is not intended to �prophet and believers� but Allah is using it for himself, the royal plural, like he uses it in 21:30 � do not the unbelievers see that the heavens and the earth were joined and �We� clove it asunder�
We can understand it even better if we see
{9:74} � �if they repent it will indeed be better for them, If they turn away Allah will punish them with grevious suffering in this world�
Now we get to know that indeed the responsibility is of Allah�s to punish, as if prophet would punish {like the false scholar claims} then there is no question of repentence!! And the �We� used in previous verse is for Allah only.
However if someone now says that but Allah talks about �punishment in this world� and thus they will be punished and needs be punished as how will Allah punish but through believers?
Then no that�s not the case, if we see
{9:85} � �do not let their wealth and children dazzle you, Allah only wants to punish them through these things in this world and let their soul depart while denying the truth�
Allah�s punishment in this world are things that appear great to us � �dazzle you�
Now if some blood thirsty, hate mongerer, anti forgiveness person still says focus on the last part {no jokes they do such things all the time} �let their souls depart�, it is a command to kill them, Then no the maximum punishment allowed is  in verse before it �
{9:83-84} � �So if Allah brings you back to a group of them and should they ask your leave to go forth with you. Say You shall never go forth with me and shall never fight an enemy with me, you chose to sit at home the first time, so sit now with those who remain behind. AND NEVER {O MUHAMMAD} PRAY FOR ONE OF THEM WHO DIES, NOR STAND BY HIS GRAVE, for they denied Allah and his messenger {& on top of it} died rebellious�
This is the maximum punishment Allah asks � don�t pray nor stand by their graves. AND WHY DOES ALLAH NEED TO TELL THIS TO THE PROPHET?? WHY?? WHY??
WHY BECAUSE THE MERCY TO MANKIND WOULD HAD PRAYED FOR THEIR FORGIVENESS AND STOOD BY THEIR GRAVES�.AGAIN WHY?
WHY BEACAUSE THE SPIRIT OF A TRUE MUSLIM IS THAT HE CAN NOT SEE THE SCORE OF HELL INCREASE, THE SCORE OF SATAN INCREASE, A TRUE BELEIVER IS ONLY CONCERNED ABOUT INCREASING THE SCORE OF PARADISE, THE SCORE OF ALLAH. He says may Allah�s victory be at my loss. If I die I go to paradise, but if he dies he goes to hell???
The life of this world is nothing and have been created to test, our parents, relatives, houses etc all are for test, use them to pass the test, and the test is not to hate and not to shed blood of your worst enemies {until he does total fitna}, and when a momin passes the test, the angels must bow down to Allah saying �indeed Allah you knew that which we didn�t, he took losses on himself but didn�t shed blood, he died with love in his heart and desiring good for the one who hates him�
With only this in the background can we understand
{9:6} � �if any of the mushriks ask you for asylum {in battlefield, after fighting and killing your people} then give it to him, so that he may hear the words of Allah and escort him to a place of security�
Why do so? Do so for if yours has been killed he is in paradise, but if he gets killed he will be in hell, thus make him hear words of Allah, perchance he might yet take heed {remember 20:44 � go to pharoah and talk to him gently perchance he might take heed} and repent and come to paradise. This is done so to make efforts of satan that he spent on making him rebel to Allah go to waste, and it be a tight slap on satan�s face��truly we muslims have forgotten that against whom is war, that against whom is battle.  
Imagine this was sura tauba the most strict sura, the sura Allah has revealed in anger, the sura that does not start with bismillah�..if this is the case of sura tauba, imagine what would be the case of whole of Quran??!!
Peace be on those who follow the truth when it is shown to them, their hearts give witness to the truth, woe to them who reject their hearts witness.
