[68] Surah Al-Qalam [The Pen]
Ayat 10. And obey not everyone who swears much, and is considered worthless,
Ayat 11. A slanderer, going about with calumnies,
Ayat 12. Hinderer of the good, transgressor, sinful,
Ayat 13. Cruel, after all that base-born (of illegitimate birth),
Ayat 14. (He was so) because he had wealth and children.
Ayat 15. When Our Verses (of the Qur’an) are recited to him, he says: "Tales of the men of old!"
Ayat 16. We shall brand him over the nose!
Tafseer of Surah Al-Qalam (The Pen) Ayat 10. Heed not the type of despicable men, ready with oaths, The type of each of these hateful qualities is not uncommon, though the combination of all-in-one man makes him peculiarly despicable, as was Al Walid ibn Al Mughirah, who was a ringleader in calumniating our Prophet and who came to an evil end not long after the battle of Badar, in which he received injuries. It is only liars who swear on all occasions, small or great, because their ordinary word is not believed in. The true man's word, according to the proverb, is as good as his bond. 11. A slanderer, going about with calumnies, 12. (Habitually) hindering (all) good, transgressing beyond bounds, deep in sin, 13. Violent (and cruel), with all that, base-born, Besides the self-deceiver and the easy-going man, there is a third type, even more degraded. He has no idea of truth or sincerity. He is ready to swear friendship with everyone and fidelity to every cause. But at the same moment he will slander and backbite, and cause mischief even between good but credulous persons. Evil seems to be his good, and good his evil. He will not only pursue evil courses himself but prevent other people from doing right. When checked, he resorts to violence. In any case, he will intrude where he has no right, claiming relationship or power or consideration in circles which would gladly disown him. He is vain of his wealth or because he has a large following at his beck and call. Religion is to him merely old-fashioned superstition. 14. Because he possesses wealth and (numerous) sons. Because may connect with heed not in verse 10, or with violent and cruel in verse 13. In the former case, we construe: 'Pay no attention to despicable men of the character described, simply because they happen to have wealth or influence, or much backing in manpower'. In the latter case, we construe: the fellow is violent and cruel, because he is puffed up with his wealth or riches or backing in manpower'. In the eyes of Allah such a man is in any case branded and marked out as a sinner. 15. When he rehearses " Our Signs" and "Tales of the Ancients", he cries! Allah's Signs, by which He calls us, are everywhere—in nature and in our very heart and soul. In Revelation, every verse is a Sign, for it stands symbolically for far more than it says. "Sign" (Ayah) thus becomes a technical term for a verse of the Qur'an. Cf. 6:25. 16. Soon shall We brand (the beast) on the snout! Literally, proboscis, the most sensitive limb of the elephant. The sinner makes himself a beast and can only be controlled by his snout.
Hadith الحدیث
English Translation of Hadith
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH) said, "You will find on Day of Resurrection the worst among the people, a double-faced person who appears to some people with one face and to others with another face.''
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
as explain in another Hadith Narrated by Hazrat Abu Said Al-Khudri (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH) said, "Man who keep two faces in his life (means showing off what he is not, like a very religious person from outside wearing all the accessories but in his heart a Cruel person wearing attire to gain worldly profits instead of serving Allah [SWT] cause) , On the Day of Resurrection he will have 2 tongue of fire in his mouth.
[Sunan Abu Dawood]
Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah Al-Qalam Ayat 11. A slanderer, going about with calumnies, and Ayat 12. Hinderer of the good, transgressor, sinful” A "double-faced person'' is one who makes a group believe that he is their supporter and well-wisher, but when he goes to the opposite group, he tries to make them believe that he is entirely with them. The best among people is one who goes to every group and earnestly tries to reform it.
