Ala-Maududi

(8:49) And recall when the hypocrites and those whose hearts were diseased said: ‘Their faith has deluded these (believers).[39] But he who puts his trust in Allah shall find Allah All-Mighty. All-Wise.’


39. Observing that a small band of resourceless Muslims was getting ready to confront the powerful Quraysh, the hypocrites as well as those who were heedless of God and cared only for worldly interests, often tended to say to one another that the religious passion of the Muslims had driven them to utter fanaticism and zealotry. They were sure that the Muslims would face a total rout on the battlefield. They were puzzled by how the Prophet (peace be on him), in whom the Muslims believed, had cast such a spell over them that they were altogether incapable of rational calculation and were hence rushing straight into the very mouth of death.
