لَا يَزَالُ بُنْيَـٰنُهُمُ ٱلَّذِى بَنَوْا۟ رِيبَةً فِى قُلُوبِهِمْ إِلَّآ أَن تَقَطَّعَ قُلُوبُهُمْ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ ﴿110﴾

Translation by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Dr. Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali

The building which they built will never cease to be a cause of hypocrisy and doubt in their hearts unless their hearts are cut to pieces. (i.e. till they die). And Allâh is All-Knowing, All-Wise.

Tafsir al-Quran al-Karim — Hafiz Abdus Salam Bin Muhammad Bhutvi

Tafsir al-Quran al-Karim is a 4-volume Quran commentary by Hafiz Abdus Salam bin Muhammad Bhutvi, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar and Sheikh ul-Hadith from Pakistan. Based on over 45 years of teaching and research, this tafsir follows the methodology of Tafsir bil-Ma'thur — interpreting the Quran through authentic Hadith, statements of the Companions, and the understanding of the early generations (Salaf). It is distinguished by its complete avoidance of Israeliyyat (Judeo-Christian narratives) and unverified reports. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.

(Ayah 110) {لَا يَزَالُ بُنْيَانُهُمُ الَّذِيْ بَنَوْا رِيْبَةً …: ’’ رِيْبَةً ‘‘} Restlessness, as narrated from Hasan bin Ali (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: [ اَلصِّدْقُ طُمَانِيْنَةٌ وَالْكِذْبُ رِيْبَةٌ ] [ أحمد : 200/1، ح : ۱۷۲۸۔ ترمذی : ۲۵۱۸، و صححہ الألبانی ] "Truth brings tranquility and falsehood brings restlessness." That is, after the demolition of Masjid Dhirar, the hearts of its builders will remain restless because their hypocrisy and disbelief have been exposed; now no Muslim will be ready to truly consider them as their own. Their condition will remain like this until death. This is the meaning of «{ اِلَّاۤ اَنْ تَقَطَّعَ قُلُوْبُهُمْ }», neither will their hearts be purified from hypocrisy nor will they attain tranquility.

Tafsir Ahsan al-Bayan — Hafiz Salahuddin Yusuf

Tafsir Ahsan al-Bayan is a well-known Quran commentary by Hafiz Salahuddin Yusuf, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar from Pakistan. This tafsir explains the meanings of the Quran in accordance with the methodology of the Salaf (early righteous generations), relying on authentic sources and straightforward language. Due to its reliability and adherence to sound Islamic scholarship, the Saudi government publishes and distributes this tafsir among the Hujjaj (pilgrims) visiting the Haramain. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.

110. 1. "دل پاش پاش ہوجائیں" means to meet death. That is, until death, this building will continue to be a source of further doubt and hypocrisy in their hearts, just as the love of the calf became ingrained among the worshippers of the calf.

Tafsir Taiseer ul-Quran — Maulana Abdul Rahman Kilani

Tafsir Taiseer ul-Quran (Facilitation of the Quran) is a comprehensive Quran commentary by Maulana Abdul Rahman Kilani, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar from Pakistan. Known for his eloquent and accessible writing style, Kilani authored this tafsir with a focus on clarity — making Quranic meanings understandable to the common reader. The tafsir provides detailed historical context for verses related to battles and expeditions, and firmly refutes modernist ideologies using strong scriptural evidence. It is widely regarded as an invaluable resource for understanding the Quran and countering deviant interpretations. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.

110. The building (of the mosque) which they have built will remain a source of doubt in their hearts until their hearts are torn to pieces [123]. And Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise.

[123] Although this building has been demolished, the disease of hypocrisy has taken such deep root in the hearts of these hypocrites that it can never be eradicated—unless their hearts are so pierced that there remains no place for it to take root. The breaking of the hearts into pieces refers to their death, meaning that hypocrisy will not leave their hearts until the moment of their death.
