Verse range: 59:3
Al-Hashr: 3
"And had Allah not decreed..."
Meaning: Allah had resolved to purify the land of Medina of them, to grant the Muslims relief from their proximity, and to make them inherit their wealth.
Had He not decreed exile upon them—a decree necessitated by His wisdom and chosen because it is more grievous to them than death—He would have punished them in this world with slaughter, just as He did with their brethren, the Banu Qurayza.
"And for them..."—whether they were exiled or slaughtered—"is the punishment of the Fire."
Meaning: If they escaped the punishment of this world, they would not escape the punishment of the Hereafter.
Al-Hashr: 5
"Whatever you have cut down of [their] palm trees or left standing on their trunks - it was by permission of Allah and so He might disgrace the defiantly disobedient."
