At-Tawbah 9:111
The Repentance · Juz 11 · Page 204
۞ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ ٱشۡتَرَىٰ مِنَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ أَنفُسَهُمۡ وَأَمۡوَٰلَهُم بِأَنَّ لَهُمُ ٱلۡجَنَّةَۚ يُقَٰتِلُونَ فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ فَيَقۡتُلُونَ وَيُقۡتَلُونَۖ وَعۡدًا عَلَيۡهِ حَقّٗا فِي ٱلتَّوۡرَىٰةِ وَٱلۡإِنجِيلِ وَٱلۡقُرۡءَانِۚ وَمَنۡ أَوۡفَىٰ بِعَهۡدِهِۦ مِنَ ٱللَّهِۚ فَٱسۡتَبۡشِرُواْ بِبَيۡعِكُمُ ٱلَّذِي بَايَعۡتُم بِهِۦۚ وَذَٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلۡفَوۡزُ ٱلۡعَظِيمُ ١١١
Indeed, Allāh has purchased from the believers their lives and their properties [in exchange] for that they will have Paradise. They fight in the cause of Allāh, so they kill and are killed. [It is] a true promise [binding] upon Him in the Torah and the Gospel and the Qur’ān. And who is truer to his covenant than Allāh? So rejoice in your transaction which you have contracted. And it is that which is the great attainment.

Commentary on 9:111
قَوْله تَعَالَى: ﴿إِن الله اشْترى من الْمُؤمنِينَ أنفسهم وَأَمْوَالهمْ بِأَن لَهُم الْجنَّة﴾ معنى الْآيَة: أَن الله تَعَالَى أَمر (الْمُسلمين) بِأَن يجاهدوا بِأَمْوَالِهِمْ وأنفسهم فِي سَبِيل الله، وَجعل لَهُم الْجنَّة ثَوابًا عَلَيْهِ، فَجعل هَذَا بِمَنْزِلَة الشِّرَاء وَالْبيع.
قَوْله: ﴿يُقَاتلُون فِي سَبِيل الله فيقتلون وَيقْتلُونَ وَعدا عَلَيْهِ حَقًا﴾ مَعْنَاهُ: أَن ثَوَاب الْجنَّة وعد حق. ثمَّ قَالَ: ﴿فِي التَّوْرَاة وَالْإِنْجِيل وَالْقُرْآن﴾ وَهَذَا دَلِيل على أَن أهل الْملَل كلهم أمروا بِالْجِهَادِ وَجعل ثوابهم الْجنَّة، وَقد بَينا معنى التَّوْرَاة وَالْإِنْجِيل وَالْقُرْآن.
وَقَوله: ﴿وَمن أوفى بعهده من الله﴾ مَعْنَاهُ مَعْلُوم ﴿فاستبشروا ببيعكم الَّذِي بايعتم بِهِ﴾ مَعْنَاهُ: فافرحوا ببيعكم الَّذِي بايعتم بِهِ ﴿وَذَلِكَ هُوَ الْفَوْز الْعَظِيم﴾ .
رُوِيَ فِي الْأَخْبَار أَن هَذِه الْآيَة: لما نزلت قَالَ أَصْحَاب رَسُول الله: ربح البيع، لَا نقِيل وَلَا نَسْتَقِيل. وَعَن عمر - رَضِي الله عَنهُ - قَالَ: إِن الله بَايَعَك وَجعل الصفقتين لَك. وَعَن بعض التَّابِعين أَنه قَالَ: ثامن فأغلى فِي الثّمن، وَبَايع فأغلى فِي الْعِوَض. وَعَن الْحسن الْبَصْرِيّ أَنه قَالَ: إِن الله تَعَالَى أَعْطَاك الدُّنْيَا فاشتر الْجنَّة بِبَعْضِهَا من الله.

9:107
وَٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّخَذُواْ مَسۡجِدٗا ضِرَارٗا وَكُفۡرٗا وَتَفۡرِيقَۢا بَيۡنَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ وَإِرۡصَادٗا لِّمَنۡ حَارَبَ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ مِن قَبۡلُۚ وَلَيَحۡلِفُنَّ إِنۡ أَرَدۡنَآ إِلَّا ٱلۡحُسۡنَىٰۖ وَٱللَّهُ يَشۡهَدُ إِنَّهُمۡ لَكَٰذِبُونَ ١٠٧
And [there are] those [hypocrites] who took for themselves a mosque for causing harm and disbelief and division among the believers and as a station for whoever had warred against Allāh and His Messenger before. And they will surely swear, "We intended only the best." And Allāh testifies that indeed they are liars.
9:108
لَا تَقُمۡ فِيهِ أَبَدٗاۚ لَّمَسۡجِدٌ أُسِّسَ عَلَى ٱلتَّقۡوَىٰ مِنۡ أَوَّلِ يَوۡمٍ أَحَقُّ أَن تَقُومَ فِيهِۚ فِيهِ رِجَالٞ يُحِبُّونَ أَن يَتَطَهَّرُواْۚ وَٱللَّهُ يُحِبُّ ٱلۡمُطَّهِّرِينَ ١٠٨
Do not stand [for prayer] within it - ever. A mosque founded on righteousness from the first day1 is more worthy for you to stand in. Within it are men who love to purify themselves; and Allāh loves those who purify themselves.

9:109
أَفَمَنۡ أَسَّسَ بُنۡيَٰنَهُۥ عَلَىٰ تَقۡوَىٰ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ وَرِضۡوَٰنٍ خَيۡرٌ أَم مَّنۡ أَسَّسَ بُنۡيَٰنَهُۥ عَلَىٰ شَفَا جُرُفٍ هَارٖ فَٱنۡهَارَ بِهِۦ فِي نَارِ جَهَنَّمَۗ وَٱللَّهُ لَا يَهۡدِي ٱلۡقَوۡمَ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ ١٠٩
Then is one who laid the foundation of his building on righteousness [with fear] from Allāh and [seeking] His approval better or one who laid the foundation of his building on the edge of a bank about to collapse, so it collapsed with him into the fire of Hell? And Allāh does not guide the wrongdoing people.
9:110
لَا يَزَالُ بُنۡيَٰنُهُمُ ٱلَّذِي بَنَوۡاْ رِيبَةٗ فِي قُلُوبِهِمۡ إِلَّآ أَن تَقَطَّعَ قُلُوبُهُمۡۗ وَٱللَّهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ ١١٠
Their building which they built will not cease to be a [cause of] skepticism in their hearts until their hearts are cut [i.e., stopped]. And Allāh is Knowing and Wise.
9:111
