But if the right is with them, they come to him willingly with submission.
But if the right is theirs, they come to him in prompt obedience.
(24:49) However, if the truth be on their side, they come towards the Messenger in all obedience. *79
*79) This verse states that a person who willingly accepts only that part of the Divine Law which serves his advantage, but rejects that which goes against his interests and desires, and prefers the worldly laws instead, is not a believer but a hypocrite. His profession of Faith is false for he dces not in fact believe in Allah and His Prophet but in his own interests and desires. With this attitude even if he believes in and follows a portion of the Divine Law, his belief has no value whatever in the sight of Allah
