طَاعَةٌ وَقَوْلٌ مَّعْرُوفٌ فَإِذَا عَزَمَ الْأَمْرُ فَلَوْ صَدَقُوا اللَّهَ لَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَّهُمْ
Obedience and upright speech.... So when the matter has been resolved upon [concerning going to war], if they remain true to Allah that will surely be better for them.
Agha Ali Puya Commentary
Commentary on Quran 47:21
[Pooya/Ali Commentary 47:21] Aqa Mahdi Puya says: "If they were true to Allah" proves that they were not sincere and loyal. It is a condemnation. Ibn Abbas had interpreted this verse as such. The command of Allah must be obeyed. There is no room for personal opinions.
