فيمن نزلت هذه الآية؟لَوْ كَانَ عَرَضاً قَرِيباً وَسَفَراً قَاصِداً لاَّتَّبَعُوكَ وَلَـكِن بَعُدَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الشُّقَّةُ وَسَيَحْلِفُونَ بِاللّهِ لَوِ اسْتَطَعْنَا لَخَرَجْنَا مَعَكُمْ يُهْلِكُونَ أَنفُسَهُمْ وَاللّهُ يَعْلَمُ إِنَّهُمْ لَكَاذِبُونَ{42}التوبة.
نزلت في جماعة من المنافقين استأذنوا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم في التخلف عن غزوة تبوك .
فيمن نزلت
A group of hypocrites among them sought permission from the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) to stay behind from the battle of Tabuk.
In whom it was revealed
Who did this verse descend upon? 'If it were near and a journey could be undertaken, they would have followed you, but the distance was too great for them. Yet, they will swear by Allah, 'If we could, we would have gone out with you.' Allah knows that they are truly liars.' (9:42, At-Tawba)
Quran Surah 9 Ayah 42:
Had The Benefit (I.E., Spoils Of War) Been A Near Gain And The Journey (Of Fighting) Easy And Moderate, Then They (The Hypocrites) Would Certainly Have Followed You. But (That) Arduous Journey Appeared To Them Far Too Long. And They Will (Now) Swear By Allah Soon: ‘Had We Been Able To Go, We Would Certainly Have Marched Forth With You.’ They Are Drawing Upon Themselves (Added) Destruction (By These Lies), And Allah Knows That They Are Liars Beyond Doubt.
