    يَسۡتَخۡفُونَ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ وَلَا يَسۡتَخۡفُونَ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ وَهُوَ مَعَهُمۡ إِذۡ يُبَيِّتُونَ مَا لَا يَرۡضَىٰ مِنَ ٱلۡقَوۡلِۚ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ بِمَا يَعۡمَلُونَ مُحِيطًا

    Transliteration:( Yastakhfoona minannaasi wa laa yastakh foona minal laahi wa huwa ma'ahum iz yubaiyitoona maa laa yardaa minal qawl; wa kaanal laahu bimaa ya'maloona muheetaa )

    108. They seek to hide from men, but they cannot hide from Allah [339]. And Allah is with them [340] when they design in their hearts that thing which is disliked by Allah [341]. And surely Allah has encompassed their doings [342]. (Kanzul Imaan Translation)

    (108) They conceal [their evil intentions and deeds] from the people, but they cannot conceal [them] from Allāh, and He is with them [in His knowledge] when they spend the night in such as He does not accept of speech. And ever is Allāh, of what they do, encompassing. (Saheen International Translation)

    Surah An-Nisa Ayat 108 Tafsir (Commentry)

    • Shaheen International

    339. This verse is the foundation of piety and purity. If man is fully cognisant that nothing of his action  is concealed from Allah Almighty then he should not  be bold to commit a sin.

    340. Allah Almighty due to His Supreme knowledge and power is with them, therefore they should be shameful and modest in respect of their behaviour. From this, we learn that if man is fully aware that Allah Almighty is with him then he should not have the courage to commit a sin. Likewise, if he accepts the Holy Prophet  ? to be present and  watching then he should never commit a sin. In ,this verse there is a hint that nothing is concealed from the Holy Prophet ? because here in Allah  Almighty says they hide from people, and not they hide from the Holy Prophet they hide  not from   , while in the words Allah Almighty has included the Holy Prophetwith Him, i.e. they cannot hide from Me and My Beloved Prophet ?. 

    Says  Allah Almighty: "Oh Prophet. the Communicator of the unseen news! No doubt, We have sent you as the present beholder." (S33:V45).

    Allah Almighty is with the Believers out of His kindness, He is with the Prophets and Saints out of His Grace and Benevolence, He is with the infidels out of His wrath, while He is with all out of His Knowledge and Power.

    341. By "they design in their hearts" it meant the people of Tama were designing secret plans to support him in order to prove him innocent so that no blame could come on them.
    342.By this is meant Allah Almighty's knowledge and power has encompassed them because Allah Almighty as a being is neither encompassed nor is He encompassing. He is free of space and place.
