Imaam As-Sa'adi: Commentary on the verse {indeed all the believers are brothers…..}

 
Allaah the Most High says:

إِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُونَ إِخْوَةٌ فَأَصْلِحُوا بَيْنَ أَخَوَيْكُمْ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُرْحَمُونَ

Indeed all the believers are brothers. So make reconciliation between your brothers, and fear Allâh, that you may receive mercy.


(Al-Hujurat 49:10)
 
Imaam A-Sa'di said:

"This is a bond that Allaah has concluded between the believers, that if there is an individual whoever he may be, whether in the east of earth or its west, that has belief in Allaah and his Angels and his Books and his Messengers and the Last Day then indeed he is a brother of the believers, a brotherhood that necessitates that the believers love for him what they love for themselves and that they dislike for him what they dislike for themselves, and due to this the Prophet صلّى اللَّهُ عليه وسلّم said ordering the believers with brotherhood based on Eeman:
"Do not envy each other. Do not inflate prices on one another. Do not hate one another. Do not abandon one another, but rather be servants of Allaah and brothers. The Muslim is the brother of his fellow Muslim. He does not oppress him, nor does he abandon him nor does he lie to him."
[Agreed Upon]

[المؤمن للمؤمن كالبنيان يشد بعضهم بعضاً و شبك بين أصابعه)) [متفق عليه))

"The believer to the believer is like a building whose different parts support each other." Then the Prophet
صلّى اللَّهُ عليه وسلّم clasped his hands with fingers interlaced.
[Agreed Upon]

Indeed Allaah and his Messenger have ordered the believers with the fulfillment of each other's rights. And Allaah and his Messenger have ordered with that which brings about unity and mutual love and interconnection between them (the believers), and all of this is in support of the rights they have on each other. So if fighting was to take place between them that results in the hearts disuniting and mutual enmity of the hearts and abandonment, then the believers should rectify between their brothers and race towards that which will eradicate their enmity. Allaah then orders with At-Taqwah (fear), and from At-Taqwah and fulfillment of the rights of the believers comes Ar-Rahmah (mercy)."
