Sirat Ibn Hisham 1128
What was revealed concerning those working on the trench, believers and hypocrites
[ مَا نَزَلَ فِي الْعَامِلِينَ فِي الْخَنْدَقِ مُؤْمِنِينَ وَمُنَافِقِينَ ] فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى فِي أُولَئِكَ مِنْ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ: إِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُونَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا بِاللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ وَإِذَا كَانُوا مَعَهُ عَلَى أَمْرٍ جَامِعٍ لَمْ يَذْهَبُوا حَتَّى يَسْتَأْذِنُوهُ إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَسْتَأْذِنُونَكَ أُولَئِكَ الَّذِينَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِاللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ فَإِذَا اسْتَأْذَنُوكَ لِبَعْضِ شَأْنِهِمْ فَأْذَنْ لِمَنْ شِئْتَ مِنْهُمْ وَاسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُمُاللَّهَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ فِيمَنْ كَانَ مِنْ الْمُسْلِمِينَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْحِسْبَةِ وَالرَّغْبَةِ فِي الْخَيْرِ، وَالطَّاعَةِ لِلَّهِ وَلِرَسُولِهِ ﷺ. ثُمَّ قَالَ تَعَالَى، يَعْنِي الْمُنَافِقِينَ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا يَتَسَلَّلُونَ مِنْ الْعَمَلِ، وَيَذْهَبُونَ بِغَيْرِ إذْنٍ مِنْ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ: لَا تَجْعَلُوا دُعَاءَ الرَّسُولِ بَيْنَكُمْ كَدُعَاءِ بَعْضِكُمْ بَعْضًا قَدْ يَعْلَمُ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ يَتَسَلَّلُونَ مِنْكُمْ لِوَاذًا فَلْيَحْذَرِ الَّذِينَ يُخَالِفُونَ عَنْ أَمْرِهِ أَنْ تُصِيبَهُمْ فِتْنَةٌ أَوْ يُصِيبَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ [ تَفْسِيرُ ابْنِ هِشَامٍ لِبَعْضِ الْغَرِيبِ ] قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: اللِّوَاذُ: الِاسْتِتَارُ بِالشَّيْءِ عِنْدَ الْهَرَبِ، قَالَ حَسَّانُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ: وَقُرَيْشٌ تَفِرُّ مِنَّا لِوَاذًا أَنْ يُقِيمُوا وَخَفَّ مِنْهَا الْحُلُومُ وَهَذَا الْبَيْتُ فِي قَصِيدَةٍ لَهُ، قَدْ ذَكَرْتهَا فِي أَشْعَارِ يَوْمِ أُحُدٍ. أَلَا إِنَّ لِلَّهِ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ قَدْ يَعْلَمُ مَا أَنْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ. قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: مِنْ صَدْقٍ أَوْ كَذِبٍ. وَيَوْمَ يُرْجَعُونَ إِلَيْهِ فَيُنَبِّئُهُمْ بِمَا عَمِلُوا وَاللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمٌ
Translation
✧ What was revealed concerning those who worked on the trench, believers and hypocrites. God Most High revealed concerning those believers: “The believers are only those who believe in God and His Messenger and, when they are with him on a collective matter, do not depart until they ask his permission. Indeed, those who ask your permission—those are the ones who believe in God and His Messenger. So when they ask your permission for some matter of theirs, give permission to whom you will among them and ask God’s forgiveness for them. Indeed, God is Forgiving, Merciful.” This verse was revealed concerning those Muslims who were people of standing and desire for good and obedience to God and His Messenger ﷺ. Then He Most High said, meaning the hypocrites who used to slip away from the work and depart without permission from the Prophet ﷺ: “Do not make the calling of the Messenger among yourselves like the calling of one another. God already knows those of you who slip away, seeking shelter. So let those who contravene his command beware lest a trial befall them or a painful punishment befall them.” Ibn Hishām said: al-liwādh means hiding behind something while fleeing. Ḥassān b. Thābit said: “And Quraysh flee from us secretly, refusing to stand, their minds grown light.” This verse is in an ode of his, which I have mentioned among the poems of the day of Uḥud. “Surely to God belongs what is in the heavens and the earth. He knows what you are upon.” Ibn Isḥāq said: of truth or falsehood. “And on the day when they are returned to Him, He will tell them what they did. And God has knowledge of all things.”
