Episode 9 - Commentary of Surah Muhammad (47) - The Hypocrites

Commentary of Verses 16 - 17 16. Among  them (the people of Madinah) are some who give ear to you, but when  they go out from your presence, they ask (with arrogance and derision)  those who have been given (some) knowledge (of the truths of the  Religion): "What has he said just now?" Those are they whose hearts God  has sealed, and who follow their lusts and fancies. 17. As  for those who have accepted God’s guidance, He strengthens them in  guidance (through deeper knowledge and submission), and gives them piety  and protection from sinning.
