    The tafsir of Surah Maidah verse 79 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
    Please refer to Surah Maidah ayat 78 which provides the complete commentary from verse 78 through 81.

    (5:79) They did not forbid each other from committing the abominable deeds they committed.[102] Indeed what they did was evil.

    Ala-Maududi

    (5:79) They did not forbid each other from committing the abominable deeds they committed.[102] Indeed what they did was evil.

    102. The corruption of any nation begins with that of a few individuals. If the collective conscience of that nation is alive, the pressure of public opinion keeps those persons in check and prevents the nation as a whole from becoming corrupted. But if instead of censuring such individuals, the nation leaves them free to behave corruptly, the corruption originally confined to a few continues to spread till it engulfs the whole nation. It was this which ultimately caused the degeneration of Israel. (For the curse against Israel in the words of David and Jesus see Psalms 10, 50 and Matthew 23.)

    (79) They used not to prevent one another from wrongdoing that they did. How wretched was that which they were doing.
