Know the Hypocrites
Suratun-Nisaaa’ (The Women) – Chapter – 4)
BisMillaahir-Rahmaanir-Rahiim
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
إِنَّ ٱلْمُنَٰفِقِينَ يُخَٰدِعُونَ ٱللَّهَ وَهُوَ خَٰدِعُهُمْ وَإِذَا قَامُوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱلصَّلَوٰةِ قَامُوا۟ كُسَالَىٰيُرَآءُونَ ٱلنَّاسَ وَلَا يَذْكُرُونَ ٱللَّهَ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا (142
مُّذَبْذَبِينَ بَيْنَ ذَٰلِكَ لَآ إِلَىٰ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ وَلَآ إِلَىٰ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ وَمَن يُضْلِلِ ٱللَّهُ فَلَن تَجِدَ لَهُۥ سَبِيلًا (143
142. Lo! The
hypocrites seek to beguile Allah, but it is He Who beguileth them. When they
stand up to worship they perform it languidly and to be seen of men, and are
mindful of Allah but little.
143. Swaying
between this (and that), (belonging) neither to these nor to those. And he
whom Allah causeth to go astray, thou (O Muhammad) will not find a way for
him.

Commentary
Yu-khaadi-‘uuna – (they beguile), khaadi-‘uhum – (He will beguile them), both words are from the
same origin. Base of these words is khadaaa’,
which means ‘to beguile, to cheat, to deceive, to exercise cleverness’. Its aim
is that the hypocrites deceive God Almighty and His servants with their own
vanity assurance, while they have deceived themselves but they do not feel. God
will reply them about this deceiving.
Kusaalaa – (languidly), it is plural of kaslaan,
which has been derived from kasala, means laziness, idleness and
indolence. Kaslaan is that person, who works with
indolence, like a tired, and that, who does not work actively and with love.
Yuraaa-‘uuna – (to be seen of), it is from riaaa’, which means to work as for
to be seen of the people. These persons perform the worship and offer the
prayer only for the purpose that others consider them worshippers.
Muzab-zabiina – (swaying between), it has been made from zabzabah, which means “Swaying between this and that, belonging neither to
these nor to those”.
Following
five outward indications of the hypocrites have been described in these
verses:-
1. They have fallen themselves in the deception, but
think that they deceive Allah Almighty.
2. They perform worship but languidly,
like tired persons and with indolence.
3. There is no sincerity in their prayers. They offer
prayer only to be seen of the people.
4. They seldom remember their Creator (Allah Almighty).
5. They remain lingered between the belief and the
infidelity. Neither they embrace belief heartily nor can they join the
infidelity clearly.
