Surah Al-Anfal Ayat 71 Tafsir (Commentry)



  • Tafseer-e-Naeemi (Ahmad Yaar Khan)
  • Ibn Kathir
  • Ala-Madudi

159. By this is meant that if any prisoner accepts Islam now and later becomes an apostate you should not feel sorry because on the Day of Covenant they had pledged their loyalty and have deviated from it after coming in the world. 

Breach of promise of such fickle persons is nothing surprising From this we learn that those who cannot fulfil their promise to Allah Almighty their pledges and assurance are not reliable because they can easily break their pledges with their fellowmen. 

160. By this is meant that just as Allah Almighty made you overpower so many infidels of whom some were killed and some were captured, in future too if those prisoners become apostates He will once again bring them under your control as He is All Powerful.
