Tafsir
(Save those who believe) in Muhammad (pbuh) and in the Qur'an, like Hassan Ibn Thabit and his fellow believing poets (and do good works) between them and their Lord, (and remember Allah much) in their poetry, (and vindicate themselves) through Muhammad (pbuh) and his Companions by answering back the disbelievers (after they have been wronged) after being satirized by the disbelievers. (Those who do wrong) those who satirized the Prophet (pbuh) and his Companions (will come to know by what a (great) reverse they will be overturned!) what kind of destination they will return to in the Hereafter, i.e. the Fire, if they do not believe. And Allah knows best the secrets of His Book'.

Al-Jalalayn Commentary
Save those poets who believe and perform righteous deeds and remember God frequently in other words those whom poetry does not distract from the remembrance of God and vindicate themselves by lampooning the disbelievers after they have been wronged by the disbelievers’ reviling of them as belonging together with all believers — such individuals are not reprehensible. God exalted be He says God does not like the utterance of evil words out loud unless a person has been wronged Q. 4148; He exalted be He also says so whoever commits aggression against you commit aggression against him in the manner that he committed against you Q. 2194; and those poets and others who are wrongdoers will soon know the reversal the return with which they will meet by which they will return after death.
