Commentary
yatasal-laluuna – (they steal away), origin of
this word is sallun, which means “to pull out immediately”. Tasallalun
is its intransitive, which means “to slip away quietly”.
Liwaazaa – (hiding behind one another), it has been
derived from the word lawzun, which means “to conceal, taking shelter”. Liwaazun
means “to hide behind one another.”
There were such people in Madinah too who were thought-fellows
of the Infidels of Makkah. They used to consider that Islam was a game for
a few days only. It would not be able to change the way of life which has been established
with effect from ancient times and it would become extinct automatically within
some days.
Apparently, these people used to follow the Muslims thoughtlessly,
but their hearts did never accept Islam. They used to come for offering prayer unwillingly
after hearing ‘Azaan (a call for prayer), attend the assemblies of
Muslims and hear the Sayings of the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and
peace be upon him), but in a while; they used to become tiresome, and when any
Muslim used to go out; they used to slip away quietly also, hiding themselves
behind the Muslim, because such Sayings were not liked by them. Such kind of
conduct has been satirized in this verse.
It is commanded: Allaah Almighty is Aware of those people
who steal away by the support of others, as soon as they find any chance. There
is rebellion in their hearts. They do not care the Will of the Messenger of Allaah
Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) and do as they wish. They
should fear that they can be punished due to this repugnance. And any severe disaster
can come upon them in the world. Moreover, they can be entangled in a painful Doom
on the Day of Resurrection.
