Love Kills

Allah Does not Love (22) the Corrupters Who Light the Fires of War

The meanings of the verse 5:64 of the Noble Quran:

Verse 5:64 says:

The Jews said, when their circumstances became straitened, on account of their denial of the Prophet Muhammad, after having been the wealthiest of people:

‘God’s hand is fettered’ and cannot give; withholding the sending forth of provision upon us.

This was their metaphor for niggardliness

May God be exalted above this!

God, exalted be He, says: Fettered be, withheld be, their hands, from the performance of good deeds, as an invocation against them;

And they are cursed for what they have said.

They neither do good acts nor spend in good causes (and they are accursed

Nay, but His hands are extended out wide; a hyperbole for the attribute of generosity.

Both His hands are spread out wide in bounty; His hands are wide open for both the righteous and the sinner; He bestowed as He will, if He wishes, He gives, and if He wishes, He withholds.

The use in the verse of the dual for "yad", ‘hand’, is intended to imply abundance, since the utmost that an affluent person can give freely of his wealth is when he gives it with both hands.

He expends how He will, in giving abundantly or straitening, and there can be no objection to this.

And what has been revealed to you from your Lord, of the Quran, will surely increase many of them in insolence and disbelief, because of their very disbelief in it;

And We have cast between them enmity and hatred until the Day of Resurrection, and so every sect among them is opposed to the other.

Every time they light the fires of war, that is, for war against the Prophet Muhammad, God extinguishes them, that is, every time they desire it (war), He repels them.

In other words, whenever they unite to kill Muhammad out of disobedience, Allah extinguished it; Allah makes them disunite and oppose each other.

They cause corruption in the land through preventing people from Muhammad and by inviting to other than Allah.

And they hasten about the earth in corruption, that is,

They hasten about corrupting, through acts of disobedience,

And Allah does not love corrupters, meaning that He will punish them.

Verse 5:64 in different translations

QARIB:

The Jews say: 'the hand of Allah is chained. 'their own hands are chained! and they are cursed for what they said! Rather, his hands are both outstretched, he spends as he will. that which Allah has sent down to you will surely increase the tyranny and disbelief of many of them. we have stirred among them enmity and hatred up until the day of resurrection. Whenever they kindle the fire of war, Allah extinguishes it. They spread corruption in the land, and Allah does not love those who corrupt.

SHAKIR:

And the Jews say: the hand of Allah is tied up! Their hands shall be shackled and they shall be cursed for what they say. nay, both his hands are spread out, he expends as he pleases; and what has been revealed to you from your lord will certainly make many of them increase in inordinacy and unbelief; and we have put enmity and hatred among them till the day of resurrection; whenever they kindle a fire for war Allah puts it out, and they strive to make mischief in the land; and Allah does not love the mischief-makers

PICKTHAL:

The Jews say: Allah's hand is fettered. Their hands are fettered and they are accursed for saying so. Nay, but both his hands are spread out wide in bounty. He bestoweth as he will. that which hath been revealed unto thee from thy lord is certain to increase the contumacy and disbelief of many of them, and we have cast among them enmity and hatred till the day of resurrection. as often as they light a fire for war, Allah extinguisheth it. their effort is for corruption in the land, and Allah loveth not corrupters.

YUSUFALI:

The Jews say: "Allah's hand is tied up." be their hands tied up and be they accursed for the (blasphemy) they utter. nay, both his hands are widely outstretched: he giveth and spendeth (of his bounty) as he pleaseth. but the revelation that cometh to thee from Allah increaseth in most of them their obstinate rebellion and blasphemy. amongst them we have placed enmity and hatred till the day of judgment. every time they kindle the fire of war, Allah doth extinguish it; but they (ever) strive to do mischief on earth. and Allah loveth not those who do mischief.
