یٰۤاَیُّهَا النَّبِیُّ قُلْ لِّمَنْ فِیْۤ اَیْدِیْكُمْ مِّنَ الْاَسْرٰۤىۙ-اِنْ یَّعْلَمِ اللّٰهُ فِیْ قُلُوْبِكُمْ خَیْرًا یُّؤْتِكُمْ خَیْرًا مِّمَّاۤ اُخِذَ مِنْكُمْ وَ یَغْفِرْ لَكُمْؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ غَفُوْرٌ رَّحِیْمٌ(70)

Kanz-ul-Irfan

Dear Prophet! Say to the captives in your custody, “If Allah sees goodness in your hearts, then He will endow you with that which is better than the wealth taken from you, and He will forgive you; and Allah is Most-Forgiving, Most-Merciful.[1]

Commentary

[1]

This verse refers to the uncle of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, namely Sayyiduna ʿAbbās رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ عَـنْهُ who, like some other Makkan chiefs, assumed the responsibility of feeding the enemy army (he embraced Islam after the battle). He had brought a large amount of gold for this purpose but the battle began before it was his turn to feed the army. After the Muslims attained victory, the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم took this gold and then revealed news of the unseen regarding more gold hidden (secretly buried) by his uncle in Makkah. Inspired by these events, Sayyiduna ʿAbbās رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ عَـنْهُ embraced Islam and he was then given a large portion of wealth from Bahrain.
