And know that among you is the Messenger of Allah. If he were to obey you in much of the matter, you would be in difficulty, but Allah has endeared to you the faith and has made it pleasing in your hearts and has made hateful to you disbelief, defiance and disobedience. Those are the [rightly] guided.

Al-Jalalayn Commentary

And know that the Messenger of God is among you so do not speak falsehood for God will inform him of the real state of affairs. If he were to obey 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 God has endeared faith to you adorning your hearts with it and He has made odious to you disbelief and immorality and disobedience an instance of suppletion with respect to import as opposed to lexical form; for the one to whom ‘faith has been endeared …’ and so forth will naturally be dissimilar in character to the mentioned reprobate. Those there is here a shift from the second to the third person address — they are the right-minded the ones firmly established upon the way of their religion;
