وَأَنِ ٱحْكُم بَيْنَهُم بِمَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ وَلَا تَتَّبِعْ أَهْوَآءَهُمْوَٱحْذَرْهُمْ أَن يَفْتِنُوكَ عَنۢ بَعْضِ مَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ إِلَيْكَ فَإِن تَوَلَّوْا۟ فَٱعْلَمْ أَنَّمَا يُرِيدُ ٱللَّهُ أَن يُصِيبَهُم بِبَعْضِ ذُنُوبِهِمْ (49 a)
49a. So judge between
them by that which Allah hath revealed, and follow not their desires, but
beware of them lest they seduce Thee from some part of that which Allah hath
revealed unto Thee. And if they turn away, then know that Allah’s Will is to
smite them for some sins of theirs.

Commentary
Yafti-nuuka – (they seduce you),
it is from fitnah, which means “to
mislead someone by seducing”. It aims that you should beware from their desires
lest they mislead you towards the deviation”.
O
Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)! You are commanded
that if the people of different sects (religions) bring their disputes unto you
for judgment, you should not judge according to their wishes, but you should
judge by that which Allah Almighty has revealed upon you i.e. Holy Qur’aan. These people are very wicked.
They will offer you a heavy amount of bribes for this purpose and flatter by
various sorts, so that you should judge according to their will, being seduced
by them, and they may fulfill their wishes by imposing the responsibility on
you (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him).
In
fact, they offered a very heavy bribe that “If you will cause to succeed us in
judgment, then we shall embrace Islam”. It is very difficult for a worldly
leader to reject this offer, while his party and power can increase so much in
a very short duration, which may be more than his thinking. It can be only a
Messenger (peace be upon Him), who takes care of justice, whether his group
decreases or otherwise.
Then
it is commanded: If they turn away from you after observing that their credit
is ruining, then you should know that their ill-luck has menaced them and
shortly; they would be punished for some sins of theirs. Therefore, it
happened.
