(and they hindered men from His way), trying to prevent the believers from following the truth,

(evil indeed is that which they used to do. With regard to a believer, they respect not the ties, either of kinship or of covenant!)[9:9-10].

We explained these meanings before, as well as, the meaning of,

فَإِن تَابُوا وَأَقَامُوا الصَّلَاةَ

(But if they repent, perform the Salah...)
