Translations

Pickthall — Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall

The hypocrites, both men and women, proceed one from another. They enjoin the wrong, and they forbid the right, and they withhold their hands (from spending for the cause of Allah). They forget Allah, so He hath forgotten them. Lo! the hypocrites, they are the transgressors.

Yusuf Ali — Abdullah Yusuf Ali

The Hypocrites, men and women, (have an understanding) with each other: They enjoin evil, and forbid what is just, and are close with their hands. They have forgotten Allah; so He hath forgotten them. Verily the Hypocrites are rebellious and perverse.

تفسير ابن كثير — Ismail ibn Kathir

قول تعالى منكرا على المنافقين الذين هم على خلاف صفات المؤمنين ، ولما كان المؤمنون يأمرون بالمعروف وينهون عن المنكر ، كان هؤلاء ( يأمرون بالمنكر وينهون عن المعروف ويقبضون أيديهم ) أي : عن الإنفاق في سبيل الله ، ( نسوا الله ) أي : نسوا ذكر الله ، ( فنسيهم ) أي : عاملهم معاملة من نسيهم ، كقوله تعالى : ( وقيل اليوم ننساكم كما نسيتم لقاء يومكم هذا ) [ الجاثية : 34 ] ( إن المنافقين هم الفاسقون ) أي : الخارجون عن طريق الحق ، الداخلون في طريق الضلالة .
