Tafseer

'Abdullāh Ibn 'Abbās / Muḥammad al-Fīrūzabādī

تفسير : (be not) in transgression (as those who came forth from their dwellings) i.e. mecca (boastfully) impertinently (and to be seen of men) to gain reputation among men, (and debar (men) from the way of allah) from allah's religion and obedience, (while allah is surrounding all they do) regarding marching against the prophet (pbuh) and the matter of war.

Jalāl al-Dīn al-Maḥallī

تفسير : and do not be like those who went forth from their dwellings, to defend their caravan and but did not return after it had passed safely, in recklessness and to show off to men — when they said, ‘we will not return until we have drunk wine, sacrificed the camels, and have been entertained by singers at badr, and [until] people have heard about this — barring, people, from the way of god, while god encompasses, in knowledge, what they do (ya‘malūna, also read ta‘malūna, ‘you do’), and will requite them for it.
