They ask you about the sacred month - about fighting therein. Say, "Fighting therein is great [sin], but averting [people] from the way of Allah and disbelief in Him and [preventing access to] al-Masjid al-Haram and the expulsion of its people therefrom are greater [evil] in the sight of Allah . And fitnah is greater than killing." And they will continue to fight you until they turn you back from your religion if they are able. And whoever of you reverts from his religion [to disbelief] and dies while he is a disbeliever - for those, their deeds have become worthless in this world and the Hereafter, and those are the companions of the Fire, they will abide therein eternally.
Tafseer
وأرسل النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم أول سراياه وعليها عبد الله بن جحش فقاتلوا المشركين وقتلوا ابن الحضرمي آخر يوم من جمادى الآخرة والتبس عليهم برجب فعيرهم الكفار باستحلاله فنزل : { يسألونك عن الشهر الحرام } المحرم { قتال فيه } بدل اشتمال { قل } لهم { قتال فيه كبير } عظيم وزرا مبتدأ وخبر { وصد } مبتدأ منع للناس { عن سبيل الله } دينه { وكفر به } بالله { و } صد عن { المسجد الحرام } أي مكة { وإخراج أهله منه } وهم النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم والمؤمنون وخبر المبتدأ { أكبر } أعظم وزرا { عند الله } من القتال فيه { والفتنة } الشرك منكم { أكبر من القتل } لكم فيه { ولا يزالون } أي الكفار { يقاتلونكم } أيها المؤمنون { حتى } كي { يردوكم } إلى الكفر { إن استطاعوا ومن يرتدِد منكم عن دينه فيمت وهو كافر فأولئك حبطت } بطلت { أعمالهم } الصالحة { في الدنيا والآخرة } فلا اعتداد بها ولا ثواب عليها والتقيد بالموت عليه يفيد أنه لو رجع إلى الإسلام لم يبطل عمله فيثاب عليه ولا يعيده كالحج مثلا وعليه الشافعي { وأولئك أصحاب النار هم فيها خالدون } .
