Surah At Tawbah Tafseer

Exposing the Deceitful Ways of Hypocrites

Allah tells;

يَعْتَذِرُونَ إِلَيْكُمْ إِذَا رَجَعْتُمْ إِلَيْهِمْ

They (the hypocrites) will present their excuses to you (Muslims), when you return to them.

Allah said that when the believers go back to Al-Madinah, the hypocrites will begin apologizing to them.

قُل لاَّ تَعْتَذِرُواْ لَن نُّوْمِنَ لَكُمْ

Say "Present no excuses, we shall not believe you."

we shall not believe what you say,

قَدْ نَبَّأَنَا اللّهُ مِنْ أَخْبَارِكُمْ

Allah has already informed us of the news concerning you.

Allah has exposed your news to us,

وَسَيَرَى اللّهُ عَمَلَكُمْ وَرَسُولُهُ

Allah and His Messenger will observe your deeds.

your actions will be made public to people in this life,

ثُمَّ تُرَدُّونَ إِلَى عَالِمِ الْغَيْبِ وَالشَّهَادَةِ فَيُنَبِّيُكُم بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ

In the end you will be brought back to the All-Knower of the unseen and the seen, then He (Allah) will inform you of what you used to do.

Allah will inform you of your deeds, whether they were good or evil, and will recompense you for them.

Then Allah says;
