وَمِنهُم مَن عاهَدَ اللَّهَ لَئِن آتانا مِن فَضلِهِ لَنَصَّدَّقَنَّ وَلَنَكونَنَّ مِنَ الصّالِحينَ
And among them are those who made a covenant with Allah, [saying], "If He should give us from His bounty, we will surely spend in charity, and we will surely be among the righteous."
فَلَمّا آتاهُم مِن فَضلِهِ بَخِلوا بِهِ وَتَوَلَّوا وَهُم مُعرِضونَ
But when he gave them from His bounty, they were stingy with it and turned away while they refused.
فَأَعقَبَهُم نِفاقًا في قُلوبِهِم إِلىٰ يَومِ يَلقَونَهُ بِما أَخلَفُوا اللَّهَ ما وَعَدوهُ وَبِما كانوا يَكذِبونَ
So He penalized them with hypocrisy in their hearts until the Day they will meet Him - because they failed Allah in what they promised Him and because they [habitually] used to lie.
أَلَم يَعلَموا أَنَّ اللَّهَ يَعلَمُ سِرَّهُم وَنَجواهُم وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ عَلّامُ الغُيوبِ
Did they not know that Allah knows their secrets and their private conversations and that Allah is the Knower of the unseen?
الَّذينَ يَلمِزونَ المُطَّوِّعينَ مِنَ المُؤمِنينَ فِي الصَّدَقاتِ وَالَّذينَ لا يَجِدونَ إِلّا جُهدَهُم فَيَسخَرونَ مِنهُم ۙ سَخِرَ اللَّهُ مِنهُم وَلَهُم عَذابٌ أَليمٌ
Those who criticize the contributors among the believers concerning [their] charities and [criticize] the ones who find nothing [to spend] except their effort, so they ridicule them - Allah will ridicule them, and they will have a painful punishment.
استَغفِر لَهُم أَو لا تَستَغفِر لَهُم إِن تَستَغفِر لَهُم سَبعينَ مَرَّةً فَلَن يَغفِرَ اللَّهُ لَهُم ۚ ذٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُم كَفَروا بِاللَّهِ وَرَسولِهِ ۗ وَاللَّهُ لا يَهدِي القَومَ الفاسِقينَ
Ask forgiveness for them, [O Muhammad], or do not ask forgiveness for them. If you should ask forgiveness for them seventy times - never will Allah forgive them. That is because they disbelieved in Allah and His Messenger, and Allah does not guide the defiantly disobedient people.
فَرِحَ المُخَلَّفونَ بِمَقعَدِهِم خِلافَ رَسولِ اللَّهِ وَكَرِهوا أَن يُجاهِدوا بِأَموالِهِم وَأَنفُسِهِم في سَبيلِ اللَّهِ وَقالوا لا تَنفِروا فِي الحَرِّ ۗ قُل نارُ جَهَنَّمَ أَشَدُّ حَرًّا ۚ لَو كانوا يَفقَهونَ
Those who remained behind rejoiced in their staying [at home] after [the departure of] the Messenger of Allah and disliked to strive with their wealth and their lives in the cause of Allah and said, "Do not go forth in the heat." Say, "The fire of Hell is more intensive in heat" - if they would but understand.
فَليَضحَكوا قَليلًا وَليَبكوا كَثيرًا جَزاءً بِما كانوا يَكسِبونَ
So let them laugh a little and [then] weep much as recompense for what they used to earn.
فَإِن رَجَعَكَ اللَّهُ إِلىٰ طائِفَةٍ مِنهُم فَاستَأذَنوكَ لِلخُروجِ فَقُل لَن تَخرُجوا مَعِيَ أَبَدًا وَلَن تُقاتِلوا مَعِيَ عَدُوًّا ۖ إِنَّكُم رَضيتُم بِالقُعودِ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ فَاقعُدوا مَعَ الخالِفينَ
If Allah should return you to a faction of them [after the expedition] and then they ask your permission to go out [to battle], say, "You will not go out with me, ever, and you will never fight with me an enemy. Indeed, you were satisfied with sitting [at home] the first time, so sit [now] with those who stay behind."
وَلا تُصَلِّ عَلىٰ أَحَدٍ مِنهُم ماتَ أَبَدًا وَلا تَقُم عَلىٰ قَبرِهِ ۖ إِنَّهُم كَفَروا بِاللَّهِ وَرَسولِهِ وَماتوا وَهُم فاسِقونَ
And do not pray [the funeral prayer, O Muhammad], over any of them who has died - ever - or stand at his grave. Indeed, they disbelieved in Allah and His Messenger and died while they were defiantly disobedient.
وَلا تُعجِبكَ أَموالُهُم وَأَولادُهُم ۚ إِنَّما يُريدُ اللَّهُ أَن يُعَذِّبَهُم بِها فِي الدُّنيا وَتَزهَقَ أَنفُسُهُم وَهُم كافِرونَ
And let not their wealth and their children impress you. Allah only intends to punish them through them in this world and that their souls should depart [at death] while they are disbelievers.
