Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim
Allah has instructed you in the Book -the Quran- He revealed to you, thus: Should you happen to hear Allahs revelations challenged and denied and held up to ridicule by those who were born to be losers, then you do not keep company with them until they have changed the subject of conversation and virtue and wisdom no longer sit in want, lest you be alike. Allah shall gather the hypocrites and the infidels who deny Him all together in the kingdom of Hell
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(4:140) Allah has enjoined upon you in the-Book that when you hear the signs of Allah being rejected and scoffed at, you will not sit with them until they engage in some other talk, or else you will become like them. *170 Know well, Allah will gather the hypocrites and the unbe-lievers in Hell - all together.

*170).
A person who professes Islam and yet enjoys the company of those who indulge in blasphemy against God, and who bears with equanimity their scoffing at God and His Messenger, is no different' from the unbelievers mentioned here.
( For the injunction in this verse, see also Surah al-An'am 6: 68 below. )
Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs
( He hath already revealed unto you in the Scripture ) He has already commanded you in the Qur’an when you were in Mecca ( that, when ye hear the revelations of Allah ) when you hear the mention of Muhammad and the Qur’an ( rejected and derided ) when Muhammad and the Qur’an are rejected and derided, ( (ye ) sit not with them ( who disbelieve and mock )) and engage in the same conversation ( until they engage in some other conversation ) other than about Muhammad and the Qur’an. ( Lo! in that case (if ye stayed )) i.e. if you sit with them without being coerced to do so ( ye would be like unto them ) in engaging in the same conversation and in showing derision. ( Lo! Allah will gather hypocrites ) the hypocrites of Medina: ’Abdullah Ibn Ubayy and his followers ( and disbelievers ) the disbelievers of Mecca: Abu Jahl and his followers, and the disbelievers of Medina: Ka’b and his followers, ( all together, into hell );
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
And it has already been revealed to you in the Book (this Quran) that when you hear the Verses of Allah being denied and mocked at, then sit not with them, until they engage in a talk other than that; (but if you stayed with them) certainly in that case you would be like them. Surely, Allah will collect the hypocrites and disbelievers all together in Hell,
