Quran,Translation and Commentary in Brief (Vol. 03)
Verses 120-121Verse 122

  Again the immediate reference is to the expedition of TABUK, but the lesson is general and for all Muslims in all ages. The lesson is that we should not hold our life dearer than that of the prophet nor, desert him in the hour of danger. If physically we are not related to the prophet now, and in the future, but spiritually Muslims have the connection for ever.

      This is because he is the leader and the Messenger of God, and on him depends the existence of Islam and Muslims. Therefore to leave the prophet alone in the hazards, even though spiritually, it will endanger the very existence of the believers and their community.

      The day in which the verse was sent down, Medina was the only capital of Islam and the center of the Muslim gathering, and this is why Medina and its suburbs have been mentioned. However this issue is not limited to Medina and the outlying parts of it. It is rather the duty incumbent upon all Muslims throughout the ages, to love their leaders, and to protect their lives and prestige and influence by all means.

      The verse then implies that; whatever of sufferings, hardships, or injuries that we endure, or whatever we offer of our resources in the way of Allah, all goes to our credit, and our reward will be far greater than anything we do for the cause of God. Here the verse alludes to seven certain difficulties that we may confront with them in our course of physical and spiritual endeavours and strives. These instances are as follows:ِ

1- Thirst that was something common in that hot Arabian deserts.

2- Fatigues, or any tiredness resulting from hard works or journeys in the way of God.

3- Hunger.

4- Treading a dangerous path which can enrage the infidels.

5- Receiving any injury from the enemies of God.

6- And a couple of individual acts of heroism are mentioned in the next verse, such as spending of resources in the way of Allah, and,

7- Or dashing across a valley, or going on a journey like TABUK or traversing any other land.

      All these sufferings and hardship are credited to our account and are registered in our record, in order to be paid back and rewarded by a far greater amount. All of the said sufferings will serve to raise our spiritual grade in the eternal life to come.
