Commentary

What their breasts conceal of enmity towards the Messenger of Allah and their jealousy, and what they declare of their slanders against him. And their saying: Why was someone other than him chosen for prophethood, while He is Allah, the One who has exclusive divinity, and there is no deity except Him. This is a confirmation of that, like your saying: the Kaaba is the qibla, there is no qibla except it. If you say: Praise in this world is apparent, then what is the praise in the Hereafter? I say: It is their saying: Praise be to Allah who has removed from us the sorrow, praise be to Allah who has fulfilled His promise to us. And it is said: Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and the praising there is in a manner of pleasure, not burden. And in the hadith: They will be inspired to glorify and sanctify [[Narrated by Muslim from the hadith of Jabir in the context of the description of the people of Paradise: and in it, 'They will be inspired to glorify and praise as they are inspired to breathe.' And in another narration of his: 'to glorify and to declare the greatness of Allah.']] And to Him belongs the judgment to decide among His servants.
