Q 9:63
أَلَمْ يَعْلَمُوٓا۟ أَنَّهُۥ مَن يُحَادِدِ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ فَأَنَّ لَهُۥ نَارَ جَهَنَّمَ خَـٰلِدًا فِيهَا ۚ ذَٰلِكَ ٱلْخِزْىُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ
Translations
Do they not know that whoever opposes Allah and His Messenger - that for him is the fire of Hell, wherein he will abide eternally? That is the great disgrace.Ne savent-ils pas qu'en vérité quiconque s'oppose à Allah et à Son messager, aura le feu de l'Enfer pour y demeurer éternellement? Et voilà l'immense opprobre.Tafsir
Do these hypocrites not know that by their doing such actions they are opposing Allah and His Messenger; and that whoever opposes Allah and His Messenger will enter the fire of Hell on the Day of Judgement, to live there eternally? That is the worst disgrace and humiliation.
Read Ibn Kathir (Ibn Kathir (abridged, English))
They swear by Allah to you (Muslims) in order to please you, but it is more fitting that they should please Allah and His Messenger, if they are believers (62)Know they not that whoever opposes and shows hostility to Allah and His Messenger, certainly for him will be the fire of Hell to abide therein. That is the extreme disgrace (63)
Hypocrites revert to Lies to please People
Qatadah said about Allah's statement,
يَحْلِفُونَ بِاللَّهِ لَكُمْ لِيُرْضُوكُمْ
(They swear by Allah to you (Muslims) in order to please you)
"A hypocrite man said, 'By Allah! They (hypocrites) are our chiefs and masters. If what Muhammad says is true, they are worse than donkeys.' A Muslim man heard him and declared, 'By Allah! What Muhammad says is true and you are worse than a donkey!' The Muslim man conveyed what happened to the Prophet ﷺ who summoned the hypocrite and asked him,
مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى الَّذِي قُلْتَ؟
(What made you say what you said?) That man invoked curses on himself and swore by Allah that he never said that. Meanwhile, the Muslim man said, 'O Allah! Assert the truth of the truthful and expose the lies of the liar.' Allah revealed this Verse.'" Allah's statement,
أَلَمْ يَعْلَمُوا أَنَّهُ مَن يُحَادِدِ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ
(Know they not that whoever opposes and shows hostility to Allah and His Messenger,) means, have they not come to know and realize that those who defy, oppose, wage war and reject Allah, thus becoming on one side while Allah and His Messenger ﷺ on another side,
فَأَنَّ لَهُ نَارَ جَهَنَّمَ خَالِدًا فِيهَا
(certainly for him will be the fire of Hell to abide therein), in a humiliating torment,
ذَٰلِكَ الْخِزْيُ الْعَظِيمُ
(That is the extreme disgrace)[9:63], that is the greatest disgrace and the tremendous misery.
