The meanings of the verses 2:204-206 of the Noble Quran:
Verse 2:204
And of mankind there is he whose speech and conversation on the life of this world pleases you, (O Muhammad), his speech, words and outward appearance pleases you, but it would not please you in the Hereafter because it contradicts what he actually used to believe; and who calls on God to witness what is in his heart, as being in accordance with what he says; yet he is most stubborn in dispute, with you and your followers on account of his enmity towards you:
He swears by Allah that he loves and follows you;
Yet he is the most rigid of opponents, yet he argues about falsehood and is a staunch opponent.
This was revealed about a hypocrite who spoke kindly in the presence of the Prophet Muhammad, swearing that he believed in him and that he loved him, and frequently sitting with him. God then revealed his mendacity in this matter. On one occasion he passed by some crops and livestock that belonged to the Muslims and later that night he set fire to them [the crops] and slaughtered them [the livestock]. God, moreover, says:
Verse 2:205
And when he turns his back, leaving you behind, he hastens, he walks, about the earth to do corruption there and to destroy the tillage and the stock
These last two actions are included in such ‘corruption’;
In other words, his effort in the land is to make mischief therein by committing transgressions and to destroy the crops and stacks of grain by burning them and the cattle by killing them;
And Allah does not love corruption that is to say, it does not please Him; it means that He will punish the corrupters.
Verse 2:206
And when it is said to him, be careful of your duty to Allah, regarding what you are doing, Fear God’, in your actions
He takes offence because of his pride.
He is seized by vainglory, pride and rage, in his sin, the one he was commanded to avoid committing.
Hell will settle his account, his destination will be Hell
So Hell shall be enough, it suffices, for him!
How evil a cradling, a resting place it is!
