وَمِنۡہُمۡ مَّنۡ یُّؤۡمِنُ بِہٖ وَمِنۡہُمۡ مَّنۡ لَّا یُؤۡمِنُ بِہٖ ۚ وَرَبُّکَ اَعۡلَمُ بِالۡمُفۡسِدِیۡنَ
2:254; 4:56.

2:254; 4:56.
Commentary:
The verse says that in spite of the hostile attitude of disbelievers, they will not all remain unguided. Some of them will change their minds and accept the truth. Only those who persist in their evil ways and continue to act corruptly to the last will deprive themselves permanently of faith and guidance. The verse gives the reason why Divine punishment was delayed, which is that there was not only the likelihood of some of the opponents of Islam eventually accepting it but that God knew for a fact that some of them would actually become sincere Muslims. He, therefore, refrained from sending His punishment earlier.
The verse constituted a powerful prophecy which was fulfilled in due course. If the Meccans had been destroyed immediately after they rejected the Holy Prophet, how would men like Khalid bin Walid, ‘Amr bin al-‘As, ‘Ikrimah bin Abu Jahl and many other brave and valiant champions of Islam, have accepted the true faith?
