Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: “Allah mocks them and extends them in their transgression, so they wander blindly”
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Allah the Exalted said: [Al-Baqarah 2:15] This is a recompense of the same kind as their action. They mock the believers, and Allah the Exalted mocks them, these hypocrites, by what He has given the Muslims of rulings that are based on the apparent. Indeed, this is a mockery of them, because they are treated on the surface as believers, and it is a mockery to make the treatment of the disbeliever like the treatment of the Muslim. And His saying: [Al-Baqarah 2:15] Is connected to ? Or to ? The apparent is the second, that it was placed before to indicate restriction and to correspond to the beginnings of the verses. The scholars said: “Yamdu” is in evil, and “namdu” is in good, meaning “amada” (four-letter root) is in good. Allah the Exalted said: [At-Tur 52:22-23] As for “madda,” it is in evil. Allah the Exalted said: [Maryam 19:79] And here He said: [Al-Baqarah 2:15] because this is evil.
