Commentary
Indeed, the command about
preparation for the Battle of Tabuuk was a very severe trial of the
Muslims. The people had returned dog tired and fighting from the Battle
of Hunayn and the Incident of Taif. The season was very
hot. The journey was long. And from which territory they had to pass, there was
nothing but deficiency of water, fields of searing sands and harsh winds of hot
air.
At that time, there was very
jollity in Madinah. The dates had gotten ready duly ripened. There
was no deficiency of provisions. Shadow trees did exist for taking shelter from
severe sunlight. By giving up these entire goods and reasons of ease and
comfort, it was very difficult to choose a long journey of wilderness and
untilled land, being struck down by a hot wind and moving in scorching sun.
In fact, this work was of those
servants of God Almighty; whose hearts were cleansed and purified from absurd
thoughts and all kinds of malice, by the benefits of the company with the
Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him).
They had observed the world in its original color and considered it totally
worthless opposite to the Doomsday. The awe-inspiring Words of Holy Qur-‘aan were
like flogging for their spirits.
Behold this verse for a while, what is it saying? It is
commanded: If you will not go forth actively and gripping up your loins as per
the orders of God Almighty and His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace
be upon Him), then you will suffer severe torment, and this entire comfort and
ease will not be useful for you. If you will not arm then some other people
will be appointed for this work by replacing you. The works of God Almighty
cannot be stopped. If you will delay, there are many other servants of God
Almighty in the world. He can punish you any time and change you with others
within no time. Everything is under His Omnipotence. He can do whatever He
desires without any delay.
