وَأَطِيعُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ وَلَا تَنَٰزَعُواْ فَتَفۡشَلُواْ وَتَذۡهَبَ رِيحُكُمۡۖ وَٱصۡبِرُوٓاْۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ مَعَ ٱلصَّٰبِرِينَ ٤٦
Disputing is prohibited, and the causes to avoid disputing are achieved through understanding, consulting and conferring with each other until unanimity is reached. If they dispute over something, then they should refer it to those in authority among them. Allah says, (If they referred it to the Messenger or to those in authority among them) [4:83], and (If you disagree over anything, refer it to Allah and the Messenger) [4:59]. Forbidding dispute is more general than enjoining obedience to those in authority because if they are prohibited from disputing among themselves, then disputing with those in authority is even more prohibited. Ibn Ashur: 10/30.
Question: List some causes to avoid disputing.
وَأَطِيعُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ وَلَا تَنَٰزَعُواْ فَتَفۡشَلُواْ وَتَذۡهَبَ رِيحُكُمۡۖ وَٱصۡبِرُوٓاْۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ مَعَ ٱلصَّٰبِرِينَ ٤٦
Disputing leads to losing courage because it stirs anger, eliminates cooperation among people, and makes some await for others' turns of misfortune. This, in turn, leads them to guard against each other, and not to expect each other's support during the hardships of fighting. Therefore, Muslim community becomes turned away from engaging in an endeavor that is beneficial to all, and the army is drawn away from marching toward the enemy, thus becomes defeated by it. Ibn Ashur: 10/30.
Question: List three harmful consequences of disputing.
وَلَا تَكُونُواْ كَٱلَّذِينَ خَرَجُواْ مِن دِيَٰرِهِم بَطَرٗا وَرِئَآءَ ٱلنَّاسِ وَيَصُدُّونَ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِۚ
Meaning: Your aim should be to seek Allah's pleasure and to make the religion of Allah supreme, to bar people from following the paths that lead to incurring the wrath and punishment of Allah and to attract people to the straight path of Allah that leads to paradise. Al-Saadi: 323.
Question: Explain the difference between going forth in the cause of Allah, and going forth to avert people from the way of Allah.
وَلَا تَكُونُواْ كَٱلَّذِينَ خَرَجُواْ مِن دِيَٰرِهِم بَطَرٗا وَرِئَآءَ ٱلنَّاسِ وَيَصُدُّونَ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِۚ وَٱللَّهُ بِمَا يَعۡمَلُونَ مُحِيطٞ ٤٧
In Arabic language, insolence is utilizing the blessings and strength which are bestowed by Allah to disobey Him. Al-Qurtubi: 10/42.
Question: Allah forbids insolence, what is it?
إِنِّيٓ أَخَافُ ٱللَّهَۚ وَٱللَّهُ شَدِيدُ ٱلۡعِقَابِ ٤٨
Allah mentions that satan fears Him; however, punishment is deserved for neglecting a command or committing a sin. Ibn Taimyah: 3/218.
Question: Fearing Allah is not sufficient to ward off punishment, until it is combined by adherence to His commands and abstinence from His prohibitions. Explain.
وَمَن يَتَوَكَّلۡ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٞ ٤٩
(Whoever relies upon Allah), whoever submits himself to Allah, and puts his trust in Him, (then indeed, Allah is Exalted in Might and Wise) Allah is the Almighty who does with His enemies whatever He wills. Al-Baghawi: 2/231.
Question: What is the pleasing outcome for someone who relies on Allah and entrusts all matters to Him?
وَلَوۡ تَرَىٰٓ إِذۡ يَتَوَفَّى ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ يَضۡرِبُونَ وُجُوهَهُمۡ وَأَدۡبَٰرَهُمۡ وَذُوقُواْ عَذَابَ ٱلۡحَرِيقِ ٥٠
This occurs at the time of the disbelievers death; the angels strike their faces and backs with whips of fire. Al-Baghawi: 2/231.
Question: The disbelievers are punished at the time of their death. How?
