Abu al-Aliyah (may Allah have mercy on him) said that they were with Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) when a quarrel broke out between two men; each of them was leaping at the other. Some of them said: Shall I not enjoin good upon them and forbid them from evil? Others said: Hold fast to yourself, for Allah Almighty says: "O you who believe, hold fast to your own selves; whoever has gone astray cannot harm you when you are guided." [Surah al-Ma'idah: 105] When Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) heard this, he said: The interpretation of this verse has not come yet. When the Qur'an was revealed, there were some verses whose interpretation had passed before they were revealed, some verses whose interpretation came about after that day, and some verses whose interpretation will come about at the Hour, which is what they mentioned concerning the matters of the Hour, and some whose interpretation will come about after the Reckoning, Paradise and Hell. As long as your hearts and desires remain one, you are not confused into factions, and some of you have not tasted the violence of others, enjoin good and forbid evil. When your hearts and desires differ, you are split into factions, and some of you taste violence from others, then each person will look only to his own safety; at that time its interpretation will have come.
