The commentary of verses
In view of sunnah
According to the commentary of ibn Kathir, Allah commands His Messenger to warn his tribe of near kindred who had very close relation with prophet and to tell them, just faith in Allah saved people. Also, this should be done with kindness.[3]
In view of shia
This verse is pointed out the second step of prophet’s apostleship. Prophet is ordered to invite his nearest relations to Islam. Until that time, prophet hidden called people.[4]
How to warn
When prophet got this verse, he asked Ali to invite all relatives to Abu Talib ibn Abd al-Muttalib’s home and to prepare food for them. The food was a bowl of milk and a feast of mutton. Forty people of Quraysh’s elder were invited. So prophet started his warning by saying "in the name of Allah" and then invited them to embrace Islam. He said "If someone give pledge of allegiance to me, he will be my brother and closest supporter", but no one did accept except Ali.[1]
