Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)

The Prohibition of Obeying the Disbelievers; the Cause of Defeat at UhudAllah warns His believing servants against obeying the disbelievers and hypocrites, because such obedience leads to utter destruction in this life and the Hereafter. This is why Allah said,إِن تُطِيعُواْ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ يَرُدُّوكُمْ عَلَى أَعْقَـبِكُمْ فَتَنقَلِبُواْ خَـسِرِينَ(If you obey those who disbelieve, they will send you back on your heels, and you will turn back (from faith) as losers) 3:149.
