Commentary
Muslims' killing each other is being ungrateful to the favors Allāh bestowed upon them. This is why it is named "Kufr" (disbelief) and in this narration the term 'Kuffār' is used. It would rather be an act becoming the disbelievers. Islam is a religion of brotherhood, togetherness and love. It is in fact the disbeliever who is after the life of believers.
