63:9
یٰۤاَیُّہَا الَّذِیۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡا لَا تُلۡہِکُمۡ اَمۡوَالُکُمۡ وَ لَاۤ اَوۡلَادُکُمۡ عَنۡ ذِکۡرِ اللّٰہِ ۚ وَ مَنۡ یَّفۡعَلۡ ذٰلِکَ فَاُولٰٓئِکَ ہُمُ الۡخٰسِرُوۡنَ ﴿۹﴾
O you who have believed, let not your wealth and your children divert you from remembrance of Allah . And whoever does that – then those are the losers.
The Importance of not being too concerned with the Matters of the Worldly Life, and being Charitable before Death
Allah says,
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ امَنُوا لَاا تُلْهِكُمْ أَمْوَالُكُمْ وَلَاا أَوْلَاادُكُمْ عَن ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ
O you who believe! Let not your properties or your children divert you from the remembrance of Allah.
Allah the Exalted orders His faithful servants to remember Him frequently and to refrain from being distracted from His remembrance by indulging in their properties and children excessively.
وَمَن يَفْعَلْ ذَلِكَ فَأُوْلَيِكَ هُمُ الْخَاسِرُونَ
And whosoever does that, then they are the losers.
Allah informs them that those who engage in this life, its delights and attributes and were busied from the obedience and remembrance of Allah, for which they were created, will be among the losers. They will lose themselves and their families on the Day of Resurrection.
Allah encourages the believers to spend in His cause,
وَأَنفِقُوا مِن مَّا رَزَقْنَاكُم مِّن قَبْلِ أَن يَأْتِيَ أَحَدَكُمُ الْمَوْتُ
فَيَقُولَ رَبِّ لَوْلَا أَخَّرْتَنِي إِلَى أَجَلٍ قَرِيبٍ فَأَصَّدَّقَ وَأَكُن مِّنَ الصَّالِحِينَ
63:10
وَ اَنۡفِقُوۡا مِنۡ مَّا رَزَقۡنٰکُمۡ مِّنۡ قَبۡلِ اَنۡ یَّاۡتِیَ اَحَدَکُمُ الۡمَوۡتُ فَیَقُوۡلَ رَبِّ لَوۡ لَاۤ اَخَّرۡتَنِیۡۤ اِلٰۤی اَجَلٍ قَرِیۡبٍ ۙ فَاَصَّدَّقَ وَ اَکُنۡ مِّنَ الصّٰلِحِیۡنَ ﴿۱۰﴾
And spend [in the way of Allah ] from what We have provided you before death approaches one of you and he says, “My Lord, if only You would delay me for a brief term so I would give charity and be among the righteous.”
And spend of that with which We have provided you before death comes to one of you, and he says:
“My Lord! If only You would give me respite for a little while, then I should give Sadaqah from my wealth, and be among the righteous.
Surely, every person who fell into shortcomings will regret it by the time of his death and will ask for respite, even a short period, so that he does better and attains what he missed.
No, rather what occurred, has occurred and what is coming, shall indeed come. Each will be held accountable for his mistakes.
As for the disbelievers, they will be as Allah said about them,
وَأَنذِرِ النَّاسَ يَوْمَ يَأْتِيهِمُ الْعَذَابُ فَيَقُولُ الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ رَبَّنَأ أَخِّرْنَأ إِلَى أَجَلٍ قَرِيبٍ نُّجِبْ دَعْوَتَكَ وَنَتَّبِعِ الرُّسُلَ أَوَلَمْ تَكُونُواْ أَقْسَمْتُمْ مِّن قَبْلُ مَا لَكُمْ مِّن زَوَالٍ
And warn mankind of the Day when the torment will come unto them; then the wrongdoers will say:
“Our Lord! Respite us for a little while, we will answer Your call and follow the Messengers!”
(It will be said):
“Had you not sworn aforetime that you would not leave.” (14:44),
and,
حَتَّى إِذَا جَأءَ أَحَدَهُمُ الْمَوْتُ قَالَ رَبِّ ارْجِعُونِ
لَعَلِّى أَعْمَلُ صَـلِحاً فِيمَا تَرَكْتُ كَلَّ إِنَّهَا كَلِمَةٌ هُوَ قَأيِلُهَا وَمِن وَرَايِهِمْ بَرْزَخٌ إِلَى يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ
Until, when death comes to one of them, he says:
“My Lord! send me back. So that I may do good in that which I have left behind!”
No! It is but a word that he speaks; and behind them is Barzakh (a barrier) until the Day when they will be resurrected. (23:99-100)
Then Allah said
63:11
وَ لَنۡ یُّؤَخِّرَ اللّٰہُ نَفۡسًا اِذَا جَآءَ اَجَلُہَا ؕ وَ اللّٰہُ خَبِیۡرٌۢ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُوۡنَ ﴿٪۱۱﴾
But never will Allah delay a soul when its time has come. And Allah is Acquainted with what you do.
وَلَن يُوَخِّرَ اللَّهُ نَفْسًا إِذَا جَاء أَجَلُهَا
And Allah grants respite to none when his appointed time comes. And Allah is All-Aware of what you do.
meaning, when the time of death comes, no one will be granted respite.
Allah said,
وَاللَّهُ خَبِيرٌ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ
And Allah is All-Aware of what you do.
This is the end of the Tafsir of Surah Al-Munafiqun. All praise and thanks are due to Allah, and all success and immunity from error come from Him
