The meanings of the verses 49:6-10



Verse six says:



The following was revealed regarding a hypocrite whom the Prophet had sent to a folk of believers in order to collect their alms; He already feared them on account of an old feud between him and them before Islam, and so upon seeing them come out to him he returned and claimed that they had refused to give the voluntary alms and intended to kill him. And just as the Prophet was making plans to raid them, they came to him to disavow what the hypocrite man had said about them:



O you who believe, if a reprobate should come to you with some tiding, some piece of information, verify it, ascertain his truthfulness from his mendacity lest you injure a folk, that is to say, for fear of this happening, out of ignorance, that is to say while you are ignorant; and then become remorseful of what you have perpetrated, erroneously against that folk.



After they (the folk) had returned to their homelands, the Prophet sent a good man to them, who observed only obedience and goodness in them and later informed the Prophet of this.



In other words, the verse says:



O you who believe in Allah, Muhammad and the Quran, if a hypocrite, bring you tidings, brings you some news (verify it) check whether the news are true or false, lest you injure some folk in ignorance and afterward you ask forgiveness of what you did and you will feel sorry because you hurt them.



Verse seven says



And know that the Messenger of Allah is among you, so do not speak falsehood, for Allah will inform him of the real state of affairs. If the Messenger  obeys you in many matters, which you communicate contrary to reality, so that the necessary evil consequences ensue, you would surely be in trouble, you would earn in addition to that sin, the sin for the consequences that ensue from your error. But Allah has endeared faith to you, adorning your hearts with it, and He has made odious to you disbelief and immorality and  disobedience.  those who have such traits are they who are rightly guided; they are the right-minded, the ones firmly established upon the way of their religion;



Verse eight says:



It is a bounty and a grace from Allah; that He honored the believers; and Allah is Knower of honoring the believers; Wise in placing in their hearts love of faith and hatred of disbelief, lewdness and rebellion.



Verse nine says:



If two parties of believers fall to fighting make peace between them. And if one of them aggresses against the other, fight the one which aggresses until it returns to the truth, to Allah's ordinance. Then, if it returns, reconcile them, fairly, and act justly. Surely God loves the just.



Verse ten says:



The believers are indeed brothers, in religion. Therefore always make peace between your brethren by means of the Book of Allah (and observe your duty to Allah), when they fall into dispute with one another



and fear Allah regarding that which He commands you regarding making peace (that haply ye may obtain mercy) and not be punished.
