The Combined Forces · Juz 21 · Page 420

أَشِحَّةً عَلَيۡكُمۡۖ فَإِذَا جَآءَ ٱلۡخَوۡفُ رَأَيۡتَهُمۡ يَنظُرُونَ إِلَيۡكَ تَدُورُ أَعۡيُنُهُمۡ كَٱلَّذِي يُغۡشَىٰ عَلَيۡهِ مِنَ ٱلۡمَوۡتِۖ فَإِذَا ذَهَبَ ٱلۡخَوۡفُ سَلَقُوكُم بِأَلۡسِنَةٍ حِدَادٍ أَشِحَّةً عَلَى ٱلۡخَيۡرِۚ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ لَمۡ يُؤۡمِنُواْ فَأَحۡبَطَ ٱللَّهُ أَعۡمَٰلَهُمۡۚ وَكَانَ ذَٰلِكَ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ يَسِيرٗا ١٩

Indisposed1 toward you. And when fear comes, you see them looking at you, their eyes revolving like one being overcome by death. But when fear departs, they lash you with sharp tongues, indisposed toward [any] good. Those have not believed, so Allāh has rendered their deeds worthless, and ever is that, for Allāh, easy.

Commentary on 33:19

أي : بخلاء بالمودة ، والشفقة عليكم .

وقال السدي : ( أشحة عليكم ) أي : في الغنائم .

( فإذا جاء الخوف رأيتهم ينظرون إليك تدور أعينهم كالذي يغشى عليه من الموت ) أي : من شدة خوفه وجزعه ، وهكذا خوف هؤلاء الجبناء من القتال ( فإذا ذهب الخوف سلقوكم بألسنة حداد ) أي : فإذا كان الأمن ، تكلموا كلاما بليغا فصيحا عاليا ، وادعوا لأنفسهم المقامات العالية في الشجاعة والنجدة ، وهم يكذبون في ذلك .

وقال ابن عباس : ( سلقوكم ) أي : استقبلوكم .

وقال قتادة : أما عند الغنيمة فأشح قوم ، وأسوأه مقاسمة : أعطونا ، أعطونا ، قد شهدنا معكم . وأما عند البأس فأجبن قوم ، وأخذله للحق .

وهم مع ذلك أشحة على الخير ، أي : ليس فيهم خير ، قد جمعوا الجبن والكذب وقلة الخير ، فهم كما قال في أمثالهم الشاعر :

أفي السلم أعيارا جفاء وغلظة وفي الحرب أمثال النساء العوارك

أي : في حال المسالمة كأنهم الحمير . والأعيار : جمع عير ، وهو الحمار ، وفي الحرب كأنهم النساء الحيض; ولهذا قال تعالى : ( أولئك لم يؤمنوا فأحبط الله أعمالهم وكان ذلك على الله يسيرا ) أي : سهلا هينا عنده .

33:16

قُل لَّن يَنفَعَكُمُ ٱلۡفِرَارُ إِن فَرَرۡتُم مِّنَ ٱلۡمَوۡتِ أَوِ ٱلۡقَتۡلِ وَإِذٗا لَّا تُمَتَّعُونَ إِلَّا قَلِيلٗا ١٦

Say, [O Muḥammad], "Never will fleeing benefit you if you should flee from death or killing; and then [if you did], you would not be given enjoyment [of life] except for a little."

33:17

قُلۡ مَن ذَا ٱلَّذِي يَعۡصِمُكُم مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ إِنۡ أَرَادَ بِكُمۡ سُوٓءًا أَوۡ أَرَادَ بِكُمۡ رَحۡمَةٗۚ وَلَا يَجِدُونَ لَهُم مِّن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ وَلِيّٗا وَلَا نَصِيرٗا ١٧

Say, "Who is it that can protect you from Allāh1 if He intends for you an ill or intends for you a mercy?" And they will not find for themselves besides Allāh any protector or any helper.

33:20

يَحۡسَبُونَ ٱلۡأَحۡزَابَ لَمۡ يَذۡهَبُواْۖ وَإِن يَأۡتِ ٱلۡأَحۡزَابُ يَوَدُّواْ لَوۡ أَنَّهُم بَادُونَ فِي ٱلۡأَعۡرَابِ يَسۡـَٔلُونَ عَنۡ أَنۢبَآئِكُمۡۖ وَلَوۡ كَانُواْ فِيكُم مَّا قَٰتَلُوٓاْ إِلَّا قَلِيلٗا ٢٠

They think the companies have not [yet] withdrawn.1 And if the companies should come [again], they would wish they were in the desert among the bedouins, inquiring [from afar] about your news. And if they should be among you, they would not fight except for a little.

And when the believers saw the companies, they said, "This is what Allāh and His Messenger had promised us, and Allāh and His Messenger spoke the truth." And it increased them only in faith and acceptance.
