Al Baqarah

HR Background

اَفَتَطْمَعُوْنَ اَنْ یُّؤْمِنُوْا لَكُمْ وَ قَدْ كَانَ فَرِیْقٌ مِّنْهُمْ یَسْمَعُوْنَ كَلٰمَ اللّٰهِ ثُمَّ یُحَرِّفُوْنَهٗ مِنْۢ بَعْدِ مَا عَقَلُوْهُ وَ هُمْ یَعْلَمُوْنَ(75)

English translation of Kanz-ul-Irfan

˹So O believers!˺ Do you have this hope that they will embrace faith because of you while there was a group among them who would listen to the word of Allah, then they would deliberately change it ˹even˺ after they had understood it?[1]

Commentary

[1]

The corruption of a scholar is more destructive than evil committed by the public, as they take guidance from scholars, following their statements, and taking their actions as examples. So, if the scholars adopt corrupt doctrines or behaviour, how can the public remain guided?
