At-Tawba (The Repentance)

10. “They observe towards a believer neither ties of relationship nor treaty, and these are they who are the transgressors.”

This verse is again upon the statement of Allah’s Wisdom due to His severe command instructing to quitting pagans.

In the previous couple of verses, the meaning was about the lack of observing treaty towards the Muslims; “…they will not observe towards you any ties of relationship or treaty…”, while, here, the meaning of: “They observe towards a believer neither ties of relationship nor Treaty…” has been pointed out, which is a statement of their quarrelsomeness towards any believer.

Thus, pagans have enmity against the believers, then, never be in any doubt that you should struggle severely against them. In the opinion of infidels, the greatest fault of Muslims is the very Faith they have in Allah, and the same thing is the pretext of their hostility towards them. The verse says:

“They observe towards a believer neither ties of relationship nor treaty…”

However, perjury is the same as transgression. So the verse says:

“…and these are they who are the transgressors.”
