Al-Jalalayn Commentary

And when they hear vanity vile words and hurtful intent from the disbelievers they disregard it and say ‘To us belong our deeds and to you belong your deeds. Peace to you — a parting truce salām mutāraka in other words you are secure from any abuse or the like on our part. We do not desire friendship with the ignorant’ we do not seek companionship with them.

(And when they hear vanity) falsehood, i.e. being vilified by the disbelievers (they withdraw from it) in an honourable way (and say) kindly: (Unto us our works) the worship of Allah and the religion of Islam (and unto you your works) upon you is the onus of your works: the worship of idols, the religion of the devil and the association of partners with Allah. (Peace be unto you!) May Allah guide you! (We desire not the ignorant) we do not seek the religion of those who associate partners with Allah.
