We do Know it has grieved you, that which they are saying.
We do Know it has grieved you, that which they are saying. They are not belying you, but the unjust ones are rejecting the Signs of Allah [6:33] ”. But they were denying without there being any proof/argument for them.
وَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) يَتَأَلَّفُهُمْ وَ يَسْتَعِينُ بِبَعْضِهِمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ وَ لَا يَزَالُ يُخْرِجُ لَهُمْ شَيْئاً فِي فَضْلِ وَصِيِّهِ حَتَّى نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ السُّورَةُ فَاحْتَجَّ عَلَيْهِمْ حِينَ أُعْلِمَ بِمَوْتِهِ وَ نُعِيَتْ إِلَيْهِ نَفْسُهُ And it was so that Rasool-Allah -saww used to harmonise with them and assist with some of them upon the others, and he -saww did not cease to bring out for them something regarding the merits of his -saww successor -asws until this Chapter was Revealed.
So he -saww argued against them when he -saww knew of (nearness of) his -saww own death, and gave the news of it to himself -saww . فَقَالَ اللَّهُ جَلَّ ذِكْرُهُ فَإِذا فَرَغْتَ فَانْصَبْ وَ إِلى رَبِّكَ فَارْغَبْ يَقُولُ إِذَا فَرَغْتَ فَانْصَبْ عَلَمَكَ وَ أَعْلِنْ وَصِيَّكَ فَأَعْلِمْهُمْ فَضْلَهُ عَلَانِيَةً So Allah -azwj , Majestic is His -azwj Mention Said: So, when you are free, then nominate [94:7] And to your Lord be hopeful [94:8] .
He -saww is Saying: “When you -saww are free, then nominate your -saww flag and proclaim your -saww successor -asws , so let them (people) know his -asws merits publicly”.
فَقَالَ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلَاهُ اللَّهُمَّ وَالِ مَنْ وَالَاهُ وَ عَادِ مَنْ عَادَاهُ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَأَبْعَثَنَّ رَجُلًا يُحِبُّ اللَّهَ وَ رَسُولَهُ وَ يُحِبُّهُ اللَّهُ وَ رَسُولُهُ لَيْسَ بِفَرَّارٍ يُعَرِّضُ بِمَنْ رَجَعَ يُجَبِّنُ أَصْحَابَهُ وَ يُجَبِّنُونَهُ So he -saww said: ‘The one whose Master I -saww was, so Ali -asws is his Master! O Allah -azwj !
Befriend the one who befriends him -asws and be Inimical to the one who is inimical to him -asws ’ – three times. Then he -saww said (on the Day of Khyber): ‘I -saww shall be sending a man who loves Allah -azwj and His -azwj Rasool -saww , and Allah -azwj and His -azwj Rasool -saww love him -asws . He -asws isn’t with fleeing’ thus exposing the cowards from his -saww companions and their cowardice.
