Important Words:
یصلون (are connected) is derived from وصل. They say وصل الشیء بالشیء i.e. he joined or connected this thing with that; he brought the two things together. وصله means, he had close and friendly relations with him. وصل الیه means, he or it arrived at, or came to, or reached him or it. اتصل الی بنی فلان means, he belonged to, or was connected with, that tribe (Aqrab).
سلطھم علیکم (given them power against you). سلط (sallata) is derived from سلط (salata) for which see the succeeding verse. سلط علیه (sallata) means, he made him to overcome him or to prevail over him or to have power or force over him, etc. They also say سلط علیه الکلاب i.e. he set the dogs upon him (Lane).
Commentary:
The preceding verses enjoined the taking of disciplinary action against the Bedouin hypocrites of the countryside around Medina. This verse makes exceptions in the case of: (1) those who went over to, or were connected with, some tribe having an alliance with the Muslims; and (2) those who came over to Medina and had leanings towards Islam, though their attitude was still one of hesitancy and vacillation. In fact, Islam attaches great importance to pacts, express or implied, and would in no case tolerate their breach. Incidentally, the verse also shows that جھاد (jihad) is permitted only against those who first make war upon the Muslims or their allies or from whom an attack is apprehended.

58:5.
As when actual or virtual state of war exists there is the likelihood that a Muslim may be killed by another Muslim by mistake, the present verse gives a timely warning to Muslims to be always on their guard against such an eventuality.
In case the slain person is a believer but happens to belong to a hostile people, then the offender shall only free a believing slave and no blood-money shall be levied on him, because money paid to a hostile people would go to strengthen their military power against Islam. In the expression, and if he be of a people between whom and you is a pact, the words, and he be a believer, have not been repeated, in order to point out that the law with regard to the Dhimmis (disbelievers under the protection of Muslims), or Mu‘ahids (disbelievers belonging to a people in alliance with Muslims) is the same as for the Muslims.
It is worthy of note that disbelievers who are in alliance with Muslims have not only been placed on a par with the latter, but even a distinction has been made in their favour. In case a Muslim is slain, the command relating to the payment of penalty has been placed after the injunction to free a slave; while in case one belonging to a people in alliance with Muslims is slain, the order has been reversed; the injunction to pay the penalty to his heirs having been put before the injunction to free a slave. This has been done to impress upon Muslims the need of showing special regard for treaties and pacts. The payment of penalty was an obligation which Muslims owed to disbelievers with whom they had made a pact, and it is in order to bring home to them the lesson that they should have particular regard for their pacts and treaties, that the injunction to pay the penalty has in their case been placed before the injunction to free a slave.

Commentary:
As the preceding verses contained injunctions which if misconstrued or misapplied, were likely to lead to a Muslim being killed by a Muslim, the present verse gives a timely warning against such an eventuality.
The words, It does not become a believer to kill a believer, have been used to make a touching appeal to believers to abstain from killing each other, since they are like brothers. It, in no case, behoves a brother to kill a brother. The words thus contain an important injunction which forms a fitting sequence to the one contained in the preceding verses concerning the hypocrites. The verse cautions a Muslim to be always on his guard lest in carelessness he should happen to kill a brother Muslim.
In case the slain person is a believer but happens to belong to a hostile people, then the offender shall only free a believing slave and no blood money shall be levied on him, because money paid to a hostile people would go to strengthen their military power against Islam which can in no case be allowed.
In the expression, and if he be of a people between whom and you is a pact, the words, and he be a believer, have not been repeated, in order to point out that the law with regard to the dhimmis (disbelievers under the protection of Muslims), or Mu‘ahids (disbelievers belonging to a people in alliance with Muslims) is the same as for Muslims.
It is worthy of note here that disbelievers who are in alliance with Muslims have not only been placed on a par with the latter, but even a distinction has been made in favour of the former. In case a Muslim is slain, the command relating to the payment of fine has been placed after the injunction to free a slave; while in case one belonging to a people in alliance with Muslims is slain, the order has been reversed, the injunction to pay the fine to his heirs being put before the injunction to free a slave. This has been done to impress upon Muslims the need of showing special regard for treaties and pacts. The payment of fine was an obligation which Muslims owed to disbelievers with whom they had made a pact, and in order to bring home to Muslims the lesson that they should have particular regard for their pacts and treaties, the injunction to pay the fine has in their case been placed before the injunction to free a slave.

2:219; 9:20; 61:12.
这节经文制订了一个原则: 生活在同一国家中并在同一个政府管辖之下的穆斯林, 不论他们是移民入境的或者是原住居民, 在彼此需要时都必须相互帮助。但那些尚未移居穆斯林国家去的穆斯林, 没有权利在世间的事物方面要求前者给予帮助。但是他们如果受到宗教迫害, 他们必须受到帮助。虽然如此, 如果他们生活在和穆斯林签订有和平条约的非穆斯林政府的统治之下, 即使在宗教事务方面也不应给予帮助; 在这种情况下, 穆斯林只有迁出那个非穆斯林国家的一条道路可走。
2:219; 9:20; 61:12.
The verse lays down the principle that those Muslims who live in the same country and under the same administration, whether as immigrants or as original citizens, are bound to help one another in the hour of each other’s need. But those Muslims who do not emigrate to a Muslim country have no claim on the help of the former in worldly matters. But if they are persecuted for the sake of their religion, then they must be helped. If, however, they are living under a non-Muslim government, with whom Muslims have entered into a treaty of peace, then no help should be rendered them even in matters of religion; and in this case the only way open to Muslims is to emigrate from the non-Muslim country.
2:219; 9:20; 61:12.
Important Words:
آووا (gave shelter) is derived from اوی. They say اوی الیه i.e. he betook himself to it; or he repaired to it for lodging, covert or refuge; or simply he betook himself to it or repaired to it; or he returned to it. اواه means, he gave or afforded him lodging, covert, refuge or asylum; or he sheltered, protected or harboured him. اوی له means, he felt compassion or pity for him. آواه means, he gave or afforded him lodging, covert, refuge or asylum; or he sheltered or harboured him (Lane).
Commentary:
The verse enunciates a great principle which should govern the social relations of Muslims. It lays down that those Muslims who live in the same country and under the same administrations, whether as immigrants or as original citizens, are bound to help one another in the hour of need. If one of them is wronged, the others must come to his help. But as regards those Muslims who have not migrated to a Muslim country and prefer to live apart, they have no claim on the assistance of these Muslims in worldly matters. But if they seek their help in the matter of religion, e.g. when they are persecuted for the sake of their religion, then they must be helped. If, however, they are living under a non-Muslim government, with whom Muslims have entered into a treaty of peace, then no help should be rendered them even in matters of religion; and in this case, the only way open to them is to migrate from the non-Muslim country. The reader should note what high regard for compacts and treaties the Quran inculcates in its followers. It is to warn Muslims against a violation of compacts that the verse fittingly ends with the words, And Allah sees what you do.

قَالُوۡا یٰذَا الۡقَرۡنَیۡنِ اِنَّ یَاۡجُوۡجَ وَمَاۡجُوۡجَ مُفۡسِدُوۡنَ فِی الۡاَرۡضِ فَہَلۡ نَجۡعَلُ لَکَ خَرۡجًا عَلٰۤی اَنۡ تَجۡعَلَ بَیۡنَنَا وَبَیۡنَہُمۡ سَدًّا
يَاجُوْج (Ya’juj, 雅朱者) 和 مَاجُوْج (马朱者, Ma’juj) 这两个单词都源出字根 اَجَّ (Ajja), 意思是:他走得很快;他或它变成火焰 (Lane), 以及指最远的东方的塞西亚人。或者, 像有些人说的那样, 住在亚洲和欧洲北部的所有民族 (《大英百科全書》和《犹太百科全書》“Gog” “Magog” 项下, 以及 «历史学家的世界历史» 卷2, 582页, 《以西结书》38:2-6和39:6)。
这些词也可用于西方的基督教国家因为他们一直利用燃烧着的火和沸腾着的水, 而且因为他们的物质进步和许多伟大的发现和发明都是由于正确并非常广泛地使用这些东西的结果。或者, 这些单词可以意示这些民族好动的性格, 因为他们总是不停地注意并且急不待缓地作出新的征服。
圣经中对雅朱者和马朱者的描写, 毫无疑问指的是西方的某些基督教强国:第一, 因为说他们是非常多的、强有力的以及强大的:—‘你必将升起, 像暴风雨般地到来, 你必将像一片遮蔽大地的云层, 你和你的所有伙伴以及和你在一起的许多人’ («以西结书» 38:9)。‘雅朱者和马朱者……他们的数目像大海的沙一样’ («启示录» 20:8)。‘对每一只长满羽毛的禽鸟, 对每一只田野中的走兽是这样说的, 你们可以吃那些强有力者的肉, 并且喝这个世界上的王子王孙的血’ («以西结书» 39:18, 19)。第三, 他们将遍布全世界:—‘他们走向世界各地’ («启示录» 20:9)。第四, 他们从北面的家里将移居到其他国家并定居世界各地, 而在战时将从他们遥远的殖民地聚集到一起:他要去迷惑地上四方的国家, 就是歌革和马各。撒旦要把他们集合起来, 出去打仗; («启示录» 20:8)。«以西结书» 提到马朱者时称他为 ‘Rosh, Meshech 和 Tubal 王子, 很明显, Rosh 代表俄罗斯, Meshech 代表莫斯科, 以及 Tubal 代表托波斯克。雅朱者 (Gog歌格) 也可指马朱者 (Magog玛各) 的国土而言(«以西结书» 38:2), 马朱者 (玛各Magog), 按照圣经注释者的看法, 代表古时称为塞西亚的地区 (包括俄罗斯和达靼地方), 那时过去出生许多野蛮人部落。由于俄罗斯包括在马朱者的土地以内; Rosh, Meshech 和 Tubal 就可以理解为代表俄罗斯、莫斯科和托波尔斯克。马朱者也可以说成是一个民族的名字, («以西结书» 39:6和 «启示录» 20:8)。在前者, 马朱者被说成和 ‘无忧无虑地居住在岛上的那些人一起’。按照这些节注释, 雅朱者和马朱者代表欧洲的一些强国, 包括俄罗斯在内。«古兰经» 中(18:95), 谈到他们袭击并侵入伊朗北部的边界领土, 这意指他们是一些通常叫做塞西亚人的部落。这是大家都知道的历史事实; 在古时候塞西亚人不断地从亚洲大批移入欧洲, 他们的道路是在高加索北面 (《大英百科全書》第14版，卷12，263页)。
当一个部落定居欧洲时, 新的部落又从东方前来, 把他们的前辈越推越向西前进。这样, 在 «圣经» 预言中这些欧洲民族就合理地叫做雅朱者和马朱者。奇怪的是, 今天在伦敦市政厅内还保存着名叫歌革和玛各两个英雄的纪念像。在 «以西结书» 和 «启示录» 中又可见到雅朱者和马朱者在后期还会出现, 即正好在迈喜合第二次来临以前的那一时间: ‘许多年以后, 在后世你一定会被惩罚, 你将来到那从刀剑下带回的国土’ («以西结书» 38:8也见启示录20:7-10)。这些经文表明, 这一预言指的是在遥远的将来会出现的一个民族。雅朱者和马朱者出现的时代特征是战争、地震、瘟疫和可怕的大灾难。也见 «大版本的注释本» 1718-1720页。
塞西亚 (Scythians) 人, 即雅朱者和马朱者, 占据着黑海北面和东北面的许多领土。他们从这些地区经过窦本要隘侵犯、征服和统治波斯人。塞鲁士打败了他们, 从他们的控制下解救了波斯人 («历史学家的世界历史»)。按照希罗多德 (Herodotus) 的说法, 就在塞西亚人通过那要隘来侵犯波斯的地方建筑着那著名的窦本城墙。
窦本 (دَرْبَند, Derbent) 即 Darband, 是高加索地区波斯的一个城镇, 在里海西海岸上的德格黑斯顿省境内……。在南方是朝海的那一端的高加索城墙, 有50英里长, 又名亚历山大城墙, 堵住了 “铁大门” 即 “里海大门” 的狭隘通道。这一城墙全高29英尺, 厚约十英尺, 门是铁做成的, 还有无数瞭望塔, 形成波斯边境一个可靠的屏障 (《大英百科全書》 “Derbent” 项下)。
与被证实了的历史资料相反, 很多人相信这一城墙是亚历山大大帝建造的。但是亚历山大的军事远征像旋风那样一卷而过, 其时他不可能注意到像建造这样一座巨大城墙的任何伟大工程; 他很年轻就死去, 也没有时间来完成这样雄伟的事业。这种普通的看法看来由以下情况产生: «古兰经» 的穆斯林注释者误将祖尔夸尔纳英作亚历山大。以下的情况证实城是塞鲁士建造的;
(a) 为了击夸塞西亚人的武力, 大流士 (Darius) 在塞鲁的儿子死后接王位, 他经由希腊横越欧洲攻击他们。他必须走如此遥远、艰难和迂迥的路程夸越欧洲东南部来攻击这些人, 而他们却生活在北方离开他很近的地方, 这是不可思议的事情。必然的结论是, 只有塞鲁士能够在他之前造的那座巨大的城墙的存在, 使他不可能带着庞大的军队夸越去另一侧; 而且如果没有城墙堵住塞西亚人, 他会把自己的国家暴露给他们从北面来的进攻。
(b) 在塞鲁士以前, 塞西亚人一直不断袭击波斯, 但在他征服了他们以后, 这些袭击就停止了, 这一情况引出一个非常可能的结论, 他一定已经筑起了一条屏障有效地阻止了这些攻击, 而这一屏障必然是那著名的窦本城墙, 即那一被错误地称为亚历山大的城墙。
The words, Ya’juj and Ma’juj (Gog and Magog), are both derived from the root-word Ajja which means, he was quick in his pace; he or it became the flaming fire (Lane), and refer to the Scythians of the farthest East. Or, as some say, all nations inhabiting the north of Asia and Europe (Enc. Brit. & Jewish Enc. under "Gog" and "Magog," and Historians’ History of the World, vol. 2, p. 582 & Ezekiel, 38: 2-6 & 39: 6). The words may also apply to Christian nations of the West as they have made much use of burning fire and boiling water and because all their material progress and great discoveries and inventions are due to the right and very extensive use of these things. Or, the words may imply the restless behaviour of these nations as they are always on the lookout restlessly and impatiently to make new conquests.
The description of Gog and Magog as given in the Bible leaves no doubt that it applies to some Christian Powers of the West: First, because they are repr
The Scythians or Gog and Magog occupied territories to the north and northeast of the Black Sea and they came from these regions through the pass of Darband and invaded and conquered and ruled over the Persians. Cyrus defeated them and delivered the Persians from their clutches (Historians’ History of the World). Exactly, at the place which, according to Herodotus, was the pass through which the Scythians made raids upon Persia stood a wall, the famous Wall of Derbent.
Derbent or Darband, a town of Persia, Caucasia, in the province of Daghestan, on the western shore of the Caspian... And to the south lies the seaward extremity of the Caucasian wall, 50 miles long otherwise known as Alexander’s Wall, blocking the narrow pass of the Iron Gate or the Caspian Gate. This, when entire, had a height of 29 feet and a thickness of about 10 feet, and with its iron gates and numerous watch- towers formed a veritable defence of the Persian Frontier (Enc. Brit. under "Derbent").

Commentary:
The people who lived on the route of the depredatory incursions of Gog and Magog into Persia asked Cyrus to build a wall across the pass through which they made their raids.

圣经中对雅朱者和马朱者的描写, 毫无疑问指的是西方的某些基督教强国:第一, 因为说他们是非常多的、强有力的以及强大的:—‘你必将升起, 像暴风雨般地到来, 你必将像一片遮蔽大地的云层, 你和你的所有伙伴以及和你在一起的许多人’ («以西结书» 38:9)。‘雅朱者和马朱者……他们的数目像大海的沙一样’ («启示录» 20:8)。‘对每一只长满羽毛的禽鸟, 对每一只田野中的走兽是这样说的, 你们可以吃那些强有力者的肉, 并且喝这个世界上的王子王孙的血’ («以西结书» 39:18, 19)。第三, 他们将遍布全世界:—‘他们走向世界各地’ («启示录» 20:9)。第四, 他们从北面的家里将移居到其他国家并定居世界各地, 而在战时将从他们遥远的殖民地聚集到一起:他要去迷惑地上四方的国家, 就是歌革和马各。撒旦要把他们集合起来, 出去打仗; («启示录» 20:8)。«以西结书» 提到马朱者时称他为 ‘Rosh, Meshech 和 Tubal 王子, 很明显, Rosh 代表俄罗斯, Meshech 代表莫斯科, 以及 Tubal 代表托波斯克。雅朱者 (Gog歌格) 也可指马朱者 (Magog玛各) 的国土而言(«以西结书» 38:2), 马朱者 (玛各Magog), 按照圣经注释者的看法, 代表古时称为塞西亚的地区 (包括俄罗斯和达靼地方), 那时过去出生许多野蛮人部落。由于俄罗斯包括在马朱者的土地以内; Rosh, Meshech 和 Tubal 就可以理解为代表俄罗斯、莫斯科和托波尔斯克。马朱者也可以说成是一个民族的名字, («以西结书» 39:6和 «启示录» 20:8)。在前者, 马朱者被说成和 ‘无忧无虑地居住在岛上的那些人一起’。按照这些节注释, 雅朱者和马朱者代表欧洲的一些强国, 包括俄罗斯在内。«古兰经» 中(18:95), 谈到他们袭击并侵入伊朗北部的边界领土, 这意指他们是一些通常叫做塞西亚人的部落。这是大家都知道的历史事实; 在古时候塞西亚人不断地从亚洲大批移入欧洲, 他们的道路是在高加索北面 (《大英百科全書》第14版，卷12，263页)。
当一个部落定居欧洲时, 新的部落又从东方前来, 把他们的前辈越推越向西前进。这样, 在 «圣经» 预言中这些欧洲民族就合理地叫做雅朱者和马朱者。奇怪的是, 今天在伦敦市政厅内还保存着名叫歌革和玛各两个英雄的纪念像。在 «以西结书» 和 «启示录» 中又可见到雅朱者和马朱者在后期还会出现, 即正好在迈喜合第二次来临以前的那一时间: ‘许多年以后, 在后世你一定会被惩罚, 你将来到那从刀剑下带回的国土’ («以西结书» 38:8也见启示录20:7-10)。这些经文表明, 这一预言指的是在遥远的将来会出现的一个民族。雅朱者和马朱者出现的时代特征是战争、地震、瘟疫和可怕的大灾难。也见 «大版本的注释本» 1718-1720页。

塞西亚 (Scythians) 人, 即雅朱者和马朱者, 占据着黑海北面和东北面的许多领土。他们从这些地区经过窦本要隘侵犯、征服和统治波斯人。塞鲁士打败了他们, 从他们的控制下解救了波斯人 («历史学家的世界历史»)。按照希罗多德 (Herodotus) 的说法, 就在塞西亚人通过那要隘来侵犯波斯的地方建筑着那著名的窦本城墙。
窦本 (دَرْبَند, Derbent) 即 Darband, 是高加索地区波斯的一个城镇, 在里海西海岸上的德格黑斯顿省境内……。在南方是朝海的那一端的高加索城墙, 有50英里长, 又名亚历山大城墙, 堵住了 “铁大门” 即 “里海大门” 的狭隘通道。这一城墙全高29英尺, 厚约十英尺, 门是铁做成的, 还有无数瞭望塔, 形成波斯边境一个可靠的屏障 (《大英百科全書》 “Derbent” 项下)。
与被证实了的历史资料相反, 很多人相信这一城墙是亚历山大大帝建造的。但是亚历山大的军事远征像旋风那样一卷而过, 其时他不可能注意到像建造这样一座巨大城墙的任何伟大工程; 他很年轻就死去, 也没有时间来完成这样雄伟的事业。这种普通的看法看来由以下情况产生: «古兰经» 的穆斯林注释者误将祖尔夸尔纳英作亚历山大。以下的情况证实城是塞鲁士建造的;
(a) 为了击夸塞西亚人的武力, 大流士 (Darius) 在塞鲁的儿子死后接王位, 他经由希腊横越欧洲攻击他们。他必须走如此遥远、艰难和迂迥的路程夸越欧洲东南部来攻击这些人, 而他们却生活在北方离开他很近的地方, 这是不可思议的事情。必然的结论是, 只有塞鲁士能够在他之前造的那座巨大的城墙的存在, 使他不可能带着庞大的军队夸越去另一侧; 而且如果没有城墙堵住塞西亚人, 他会把自己的国家暴露给他们从北面来的进攻。
(b) 在塞鲁士以前, 塞西亚人一直不断袭击波斯, 但在他征服了他们以后, 这些袭击就停止了, 这一情况引出一个非常可能的结论, 他一定已经筑起了一条屏障有效地阻止了这些攻击, 而这一屏障必然是那著名的窦本城墙, 即那一被错误地称为亚历山大的城墙。

Commentary:
The people who lived on the route of the depredatory incursions of Gog and Magog into Persia asked Cyrus to build a wall across the pass through which they made their raids.
1728
The words, Ya’juj and Ma’juj (Gog and Magog), are both derived from the root-word Ajja which means, he was quick in his pace; he or it became the flaming fire (Lane), and refer to the Scythians of the farthest East. Or, as some say, all nations inhabiting the north of Asia and Europe (Enc. Brit. & Jewish Enc. under "Gog" and "Magog," and Historians’ History of the World, vol. 2, p. 582 & Ezekiel, 38: 2-6 & 39: 6). The words may also apply to Christian nations of the West as they have made much use of burning fire and boiling water and because all their material progress and great discoveries and inventions are due to the right and very extensive use of these things. Or, the words may imply the restless behaviour of these nations as they are always on the lookout restlessly and impatiently to make new conquests.
The description of Gog and Magog as given in the Bible leaves no doubt that it applies to some Christian Powers of the West: First, because they are repr

The Scythians or Gog and Magog occupied territories to the north and northeast of the Black Sea and they came from these regions through the pass of Darband and invaded and conquered and ruled over the Persians. Cyrus defeated them and delivered the Persians from their clutches (Historians’ History of the World). Exactly, at the place which, according to Herodotus, was the pass through which the Scythians made raids upon Persia stood a wall, the famous Wall of Derbent.
Derbent or Darband, a town of Persia, Caucasia, in the province of Daghestan, on the western shore of the Caspian... And to the south lies the seaward extremity of the Caucasian wall, 50 miles long otherwise known as Alexander’s Wall, blocking the narrow pass of the Iron Gate or the Caspian Gate. This, when entire, had a height of 29 feet and a thickness of about 10 feet, and with its iron gates and numerous watch- towers formed a veritable defence of the Persian Frontier (Enc. Brit. under "Derbent").
