اور جب وہ ان لوگوں سے ملتے ہیں جو ایمان لائے تو کہتے ہیں کہ ہم بھی ایمان لے آئے۔ اور جب ان میں سے بعض بعض دوسروں کی طرف الگ ہو جاتے ہیں تو وہ (ان سے) کہتے ہیں کہ کیا تم ان کو وہ باتیں بتاتے ہو جو اللہ نے تم پر کھولی ہیں تا کہ انہی باتوں کے ذریعہ وہ تمہارے ربّ کے حضور تم سے جھگڑا کریں۔ پس کیا تم عقل نہیں کرتے۔

Important Words:

Commentary:

The verse mentions another class of Jews who acted hypocritically. When they mixed with Muslims, they chimed in with them from worldly motives, confirming the prophecies contained in their Books about the Holy Prophet. But when they were away from Muslims and mixed with their own people, they behaved in quite a different way. On such occasions other members of the community would reproach them for their enlightening the Muslims on what God had revealed to them, i.e., for letting the Muslims know the prophecies about the Holy Prophet contained in the Jewish scriptures. In that case, they would say, the Muslims would argue with them before God, blaming them before Him on the Day of Judgement for their rejection of the Holy Prophet. And yet they well knew the prophecies which spoke of his advent and bore witness to his truth. That there will be such contentions on the Day of Judgement has also been mentioned elsewhere in the Quran which says: Then surely on the Day of Resurrection you will contend with one another in the presence of your Lord (39:32). It is a weakness of human nature that a culprit, even when knowing that the judge knows the truth, tries to put up pleas in his favour. Moreover, there is a sect among the Jews who, against the teachings of their own scriptures, hold that God does not know the details of all things, and quite possibly those who reproached their brethren for disclosing such prophecies to the Muslims held a similar view and feared lest the latter should place these facts before God on the Day of Resurrection and blame them in the presence of their Lord.
