يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّبِىُّ قُل لِّمَن فِىٓ أَيْدِيكُم مِّنَ ٱلْأَسْرَىٰٓإِن يَعْلَمِ ٱللَّهُ فِى قُلُوبِكُمْ خَيْرًا يُؤْتِكُمْ خَيْرًا مِّمَّآ أُخِذَ مِنكُمْ وَيَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ وَٱللَّهُ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ 70

70. O Prophet! Say unto those captives who are in your
hands: If Allah knoweth any good in your hearts He will give you better
than that which hath been taken from you, and will forgive you. And lo! Allah
is Forgiving, Merciful.
71. And if they would betray thee, they have betrayed
Allah before, and He gave (thee) power over them. And Allah is Knower, Wise.

Commentary
Allah Almighty commands: O Prophet (grace, glory, blessings and
peace be upon Him)! Those captives who have been captured by the Muslims in the
Battle of Badr, and some of them who desire to enter in Islam, You
should say to them! At this time, you can be freed from imprisonment only after
paying the ransom. This is not the occasion of knowing about the reality of
your Islam. You should deposit the ransom if you wish to go to your homes.
After that God Almighty will examine you. If you entered in Islam really,
wholeheartedly, and your intentions are observed fair, then He will give you
too much that; comparing to which; this money; which you are going to pay as
ransom for saving your lives, will be valueless. And along with it, He will
forgive your previous errors and past sins also, because; as He is Forgiving,
He is Merciful too. And He does not delay in Forgiving.
And if, O Prophet (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon
Him)! The evil is in their hearts and at this time; they wish to accomplish
their desires by betraying you, then it is not a big matter. They have betrayed
God Almighty even in the past and broken their covenant after making it.
At first; they broke the covenant which was made by their souls
i.e. when God Almighty asked from the entire human souls: Am I not your Lord?
They all replied! You are our Lord. After coming in this world, they denied
from accepting Him their Lord and involved in infidelity and ascribing
plurality to Him.
Then, some of them are such people who are Banu Hashim and
they promised before Abu Talib {paternal uncle of Muhammad
(grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)}: We shall support and side
with Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) against the
Infidels of Makkah. And today, they have come with the idolaters
of Makkah to fight against You; breaking their treaty. God
Almighty knows that which is in their hearts and He understands: How to deal
with every individual. He will handle them properly.
Such covenant made by God Almighty was fulfilled. Those people
who embraced Islam; their children performed as kings in the world. But those
people, who did not become Muslims; they were destroyed.
