مَّن يُطِعِ ٱلرَّسُولَ فَقَدۡ أَطَاعَ ٱللَّهَۖ وَمَن تَوَلَّىٰ فَمَآ أَرۡسَلۡنَٰكَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ حَفِيظٗا ٨٠

Commentary on 4:79–80
﴿ما أَصابَكَ مِنْ حَسَنَةٍ﴾ ما اسم شرط جازم في محل رفع مبتدأ أصابك فعل ماض وهو في محل جزم فعل الشرط والجار والمجرور متعلقان بمحذوف حال ﴿فَمِنَ اللَّهِ﴾ الفاء واقعة في جواب الشرط والجار والمجرور متعلقان بمحذوف خبر المبتدأ المحذوف أي: فهي من الله والجملة في محل جزم جواب الشرط وفعل الشرط وجوابه خبر المبتدأ ما ﴿وَما أَصابَكَ مِنْ سَيِّئَةٍ فَمِنْ نَفْسِكَ﴾ إعرابها كسابقتها والواو عاطفة ﴿وَأَرْسَلْناكَ لِلنَّاسِ﴾ فعل ماض وفاعل ومفعول به والجار والمجرور متعلقان بالفعل ﴿رَسُولًا﴾ حال منصوبة والجملة مستأنفة. ﴿وَكَفى بِاللَّهِ شَهِيداً﴾ فعل ماض ولفظ الجلالة فاعل وشهيدا تمييز والباء زائدة والجملة معطوفة.
﴿مَنْ يُطِعِ الرَّسُولَ﴾ فعل مضارع مجزوم لأنه فعل الشرط ومفعوله واسم الشرط من مبتدأ. ﴿فَقَدْ أَطاعَ اللَّهَ﴾ الفاء رابطة وفعل ماض ومفعوله قد حرف تحقيق والجملة في محل جزم جواب الشرط وفعل الشرط وجوابه خبر من ﴿وَمَنْ تَوَلَّى﴾ من شرطية وفعل ماض في محل جزم فعل الشرط وفاعله هو واسم الشرط مبتدأ ﴿فَما أَرْسَلْناكَ﴾ فعل ماض وفاعل ومفعول به والجملة تعليلية وما نافية ﴿عَلَيْهِمْ﴾ متعلقان بالحال ﴿حَفِيظاً﴾ وجواب الشرط محذوف تقديره: ومن تولى فلا تأبهن به وفعل الشرط وجوابه خبر من.

4:80
مَّن يُطِعِ ٱلرَّسُولَ فَقَدۡ أَطَاعَ ٱللَّهَۖ وَمَن تَوَلَّىٰ فَمَآ أَرۡسَلۡنَٰكَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ حَفِيظٗا ٨٠
He who obeys the Messenger has obeyed Allāh; but those who turn away - We have not sent you over them as a guardian.
4:81
وَيَقُولُونَ طَاعَةٞ فَإِذَا بَرَزُواْ مِنۡ عِندِكَ بَيَّتَ طَآئِفَةٞ مِّنۡهُمۡ غَيۡرَ ٱلَّذِي تَقُولُۖ وَٱللَّهُ يَكۡتُبُ مَا يُبَيِّتُونَۖ فَأَعۡرِضۡ عَنۡهُمۡ وَتَوَكَّلۡ عَلَى ٱللَّهِۚ وَكَفَىٰ بِٱللَّهِ وَكِيلًا ٨١
And they say, "[We pledge] obedience." But when they leave you, a group of them spend the night determining to do other than what you say. But Allāh records what they plan by night. So leave them alone and rely upon Allāh. And sufficient is Allāh as Disposer of affairs.
4:82
أَفَلَا يَتَدَبَّرُونَ ٱلۡقُرۡءَانَۚ وَلَوۡ كَانَ مِنۡ عِندِ غَيۡرِ ٱللَّهِ لَوَجَدُواْ فِيهِ ٱخۡتِلَٰفٗا كَثِيرٗا ٨٢
Then do they not reflect upon the Qur’ān?1 If it had been from [any] other than Allāh, they would have found within it much contradiction.

4:83
وَإِذَا جَآءَهُمۡ أَمۡرٞ مِّنَ ٱلۡأَمۡنِ أَوِ ٱلۡخَوۡفِ أَذَاعُواْ بِهِۦۖ وَلَوۡ رَدُّوهُ إِلَى ٱلرَّسُولِ وَإِلَىٰٓ أُوْلِي ٱلۡأَمۡرِ مِنۡهُمۡ لَعَلِمَهُ ٱلَّذِينَ يَسۡتَنۢبِطُونَهُۥ مِنۡهُمۡۗ وَلَوۡلَا فَضۡلُ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيۡكُمۡ وَرَحۡمَتُهُۥ لَٱتَّبَعۡتُمُ ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنَ إِلَّا قَلِيلٗا ٨٣
And when there comes to them something [i.e., information] about [public] security or fear, they spread it around. But if they had referred it back to the Messenger or to those of authority among them, then the ones who [can] draw correct conclusions from it would have known about it. And if not for the favor of Allāh upon you and His mercy, you would have followed Satan, except for a few.
4:84
فَقَٰتِلۡ فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ لَا تُكَلَّفُ إِلَّا نَفۡسَكَۚ وَحَرِّضِ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَۖ عَسَى ٱللَّهُ أَن يَكُفَّ بَأۡسَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْۚ وَٱللَّهُ أَشَدُّ بَأۡسٗا وَأَشَدُّ تَنكِيلٗا ٨٤
So fight, [O Muḥammad], in the cause of Allāh; you are not held responsible except for yourself. And encourage the believers [to join you] that perhaps Allāh will restrain the [military] might of those who disbelieve. And Allāh is greater in might and stronger in [exemplary] punishment.1

- Allāh is able to defeat them in such a way as to deter others from attempting anything similar. ↩
4:85
مَّن يَشۡفَعۡ شَفَٰعَةً حَسَنَةٗ يَكُن لَّهُۥ نَصِيبٞ مِّنۡهَاۖ وَمَن يَشۡفَعۡ شَفَٰعَةٗ سَيِّئَةٗ يَكُن لَّهُۥ كِفۡلٞ مِّنۡهَاۗ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيۡءٖ مُّقِيتٗا ٨٥
Whoever intercedes for a good cause will have a share [i.e., reward] therefrom; and whoever intercedes for an evil cause will have a portion [i.e., burden] therefrom. And ever is Allāh, over all things, a Keeper.1

4:86
وَإِذَا حُيِّيتُم بِتَحِيَّةٖ فَحَيُّواْ بِأَحۡسَنَ مِنۡهَآ أَوۡ رُدُّوهَآۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ كَانَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيۡءٍ حَسِيبًا ٨٦
And when you are greeted with a greeting, greet [in return] with one better than it or [at least] return it [in a like manner]. Indeed Allāh is ever, over all things, an Accountant.
