Tafsir
And do not be like those who went forth from their dwellings to defend their caravan and but did not return after it had passed safely in recklessness and to show off to men — when they said ‘We will not return until we have drunk wine sacrificed the camels and have been entertained by singers at Badr and until people have heard about this — barring people from the way of God while God encompasses in knowledge what they do ya‘malūna also read ta‘malūna ‘you do’ and will requite them for it.
