70. It should be remembered that some mediums and resources can be abandoned after reaching one's destination e.g. a train while others can not be left, like the lamp to provide light. The Holy Prophet falls in the second category of mediums. No persons on reaching Allah Almighty can abandon the Holy Prophet. Hence, Allah Almighty Himself has mentioned about The Holy Prophet. sFurthermore, we learn that anyone who degrades the Holy Prophet is a non-believer, Hence, He says: "He loves not the infidels" (S3-V32).
The tafsir of Surah Imran verse 32 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Imran ayat 31 which provides the complete commentary from verse 31 through 32.
(3:32) Say: ‘Obey Allah and obey the Messenger.’ If they turn away from this then know that Allah does not love those who refuse to obey Him and His Messenger.[28]
28. This marks the conclusion of the first discourse. Reflection upon its contents, particularly the reference to the Battle of Badr, leads one to the conclusion that this section was probably revealed between the battles of Badr and Uhud, i.e. sometime in 3.A.H. The tradition mentioned by Muhammad b. Ishaq has led to the common misunderstanding that the first eighty verses of this surah were revealed on the occasion of the arrival of the deputation from Najran in 9 A.H. (See Ibn Hisham. Sirah, vol. 1, pp. 573 ff., especially p. 576; Ibn Ishaq, Life of Muhammad, tr. A. Guillaume, second impression, London, Oxford, 1968. pp. 270 ff.. especially p. 272 – Ed.) This is not true. In the first place, the introductory section indicates that the surah was revealed much earlier. Second, the Tradition narrated by Muqatil b. Sulayman states explicitly that on the occasion of the arrival of the deputation from Najran only those verses which concern the Prophets John (Yahya) and Jesus (‘Isa) (peace be on them) were revealed, and the number of those verses is about thirty.
