Tafsir

Scholarly commentary explaining a verse — its context, its meaning and how the scholars have understood it.

At-Tawbah 9:44

Word by word

لَا يَسْتَـْٔذِنُكَ ٱلَّذِينَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْـَٔاخِرِ أَن يُجَـٰهِدُوا۟ بِأَمْوَٰلِهِمْ وَأَنفُسِهِمْ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ عَلِيمٌۢ بِٱلْمُتَّقِينَ

Those who believe in Allāh and the Last Day would not ask permission of you to be excused from striving [i.e., fighting] with their wealth and their lives. And Allāh is Knowing of those who fear Him.

Tafsir Ibn Kathir

Hafiz Ibn Kathir

يقول تعالى : هلا تركتهم لما استأذنوك ، فلم تأذن لأحد منهم في القعود ، لتعلم الصادق منهم في إظهار طاعتك من الكاذب ، فإنهم قد كانوا مصرين على القعود عن الغزو [ وإن لم تأذن لهم فيه . ولهذا أخبر تعالى أنه لا يستأذنه في القعود عن الغزو ] أحد يؤمن بالله ورسوله ، فقال : ( لا يستأذنك ) أي : في القعود عن الغزو ( الذين يؤمنون بالله واليوم الآخر أن يجاهدوا بأموالهم وأنفسهم ) ؛ لأن أولئك يرون الجهاد قربة ، ولما ندبهم إليه بادروا وامتثلوا .
