THE HYPOCRTICAL OBSTRUCTION (VERSES NO. 79 - 80)Verses 79-80

OCCASION OF THE REVELATION

      When the prophet was mobilizing his army for the expedition to TABUK, he needed people's help. When he announced that, those who could afford, gave a good amount of alms, or gratis, and offerings without recompense.

      Among the Muslims were also labourers with very little income. Such was the case of ABUAQIL- ANSطRI. He worked overtime all the night to obtain a little amount of dates, half of which he offered to the prophet for the cause, and the other half he gave to his wife and children.

      some of the hypocrites ridiculed him for his small amount of worthless offerings. They also accused those with offerings of large sum, of pretence and mere ostentation. As if their aim was to drive Muslims to despair, and dishearten them in their strive and endeavour.

      The verse was revealed to encourage Muslims, and give value even to small offerings with sincerity.
