(119) هَاأَنتُمْ أُولاءِ تُحِبُّونَهُمْ وَلاَ يُحِبُّونَكُمْ وَتُؤْمِنُونَ بِالْكِتَابِ كُلِّهِ وَإِذَا لَقُوكُمْ قَالُواْ آمَنَّا وَإِذَا
خَلَوْاْ عَضُّواْ عَلَيْكُمُ الأَنَامِلَ مِنَ الْغَيْظِ قُلْ مُوتُواْ بِغَيْظِكُمْ إِنَّ اللّهَ عَلِيمٌ بِذَاتِ الصُّدُورِ
119. " Here you are, loving them while they do not love you! Though you believe in all Books and when they meet you, they say: ' We believe ', but when they are alone, they bite the ends of their fingers in rage against you. Say: ' Die in your rage!'. Surely Allah is aware of what is in the breasts."
Commentary:
In this verse it addresses the Muslims and says that you love them because of relationship or neighbourliness, or for other reasons, neglecting the fact that they do not like you.
It is in the case that you believe in all the Books that have been sent down by Allah (irrespetive of your own Book and the heavenly Book of theirs), but they do not believe in the revealed Book you have.
" Here you are, loving them while they do not love you! Though you believe in all Books; ..."
Then, the Qur'an introduces the real feature of this group of the People of the Book, who are hypocrites, when it says:
"... and when they meet you, they say: ' We believe ', but when they are alone, they bite the ends of their fingers in rage against you. ..."
It says to the Prophet to tell them that they would die with the rage that they have and this grief will be with them until the day of their death.
"... Say: ' Die in your rage!'. ..."
You were not aware of their condition, but Allah is, because:
"... Surely Allah is aware of what is in the breasts."
