يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّبِىُّ قُل لِّمَن فِىٓ أَيْدِيكُم مِّنَ ٱلْأَسْرَىٰٓإِن يَعْلَمِ ٱللَّهُ فِى قُلُوبِكُمْ خَيْرًا يُؤْتِكُمْ خَيْرًا مِّمَّآ أُخِذَ مِنكُمْ وَيَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ وَٱللَّهُ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ 70
وَإِن يُرِيدُوا۟ خِيَانَتَكَ فَقَدْ خَانُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ مِنقَبْلُ فَأَمْكَنَ مِنْهُمْ وَٱللَّهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ 71
70. O Prophet! Say unto those captives who are in your
hands: If Allah knoweth any good in your hearts He will give you better
than that which hath been taken from you, and will forgive you. And lo! Allah
is Forgiving, Merciful.
71. And if they would betray thee, they have betrayed
Allah before, and He gave (thee) power over them. And Allah is Knower, Wise.

Commentary
Allah Almighty commands: O
Prophet (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)! Those captives who
have been captured by the Muslims in the Battle of Badr, and some
of them who desire to enter in Islam, You should say to them! At this time, you
can be freed from imprisonment only after paying the ransom. This is not the
occasion of knowing about the reality of your Islam. You should deposit the
ransom if you wish to go to your homes. After that God Almighty will examine
you. If you entered in Islam really, wholeheartedly, and your intentions are
observed fair, then He will give you too much that; comparing to which; this
money; which you are going to pay as ransom for saving your lives, will be
valueless. And along with it, He will forgive your previous errors and past
sins also, because; as He is Forgiving, He is Merciful too. And He does not
delay in Forgiving.
And if, O Prophet (grace,
glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)! The evil is in their hearts and at
this time; they wish to accomplish their desires by betraying you, then it is
not a big matter. They have betrayed God Almighty even in the past and broken
their covenant after making it.
At first; they broke the
covenant which was made by their souls i.e. when God Almighty asked from the
entire human souls: Am I not your Lord? They all replied! You are our Lord.
After coming in this world, they denied from accepting Him their Lord and
involved in infidelity and ascribing plurality to Him.
Then, some of them are such
people who are Banu Hashim and they promised before Abu
Talib {paternal uncle of Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace
be upon Him)}: We shall support and side with Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings
and peace be upon Him) against the Infidels of Makkah. And today,
they have come with the idolaters of Makkah to fight against
You; breaking their treaty. God Almighty knows that which is in their hearts
and He understands: How to deal with every individual. He will handle them
properly.
Such covenant made by God
Almighty was fulfilled. Those people who embraced Islam; their children
performed as kings in the world. But those people, who did not become Muslims;
they were destroyed.
