English - Five Volume Translation
[a]And they hated them not but only because they believed in Allah, the Almighty, the Praiseworthy,[4663]
5:60; 7:127.
Commentary:
The verse is full of pathos. The only fault of the believers is that they believe in One, Merciful and Almighty God. Is belief in God really such a heinous crime that its holders should be subjected to cruel persecution? These verses may also refer to the persecution of the early Muslims at Mecca. They had done nothing to excite the enmity of their compatriots except that they had given up worshipping idols of wood and stone and instead had believed in God, the Maker of the heavens and earth.
