Muhammad

There are some of them who listen to you ˹O Prophet˺, but when they depart from you, they say ˹mockingly˺ to those ˹believers˺ gifted with knowledge, “What did he just say?” These are the ones whose hearts Allah has sealed and who ˹only˺ follow their desires.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

And among them, [O Muḥammad], are those who listen to you, until when they depart from you, they say to those who were given knowledge,¹ "What has he said just now?" Those are the ones of whom Allah has sealed over their hearts and who have followed their [own] desires.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

Then do they await except that the Hour should come upon them unexpectedly? But already there have come [some of] its indications. Then how [i.e., what good] to them, when it has come, will be their remembrance?

So, know ˹well, O  Prophet,˺ that there is no god ˹worthy of worship˺ except Allah. And seek forgiveness for your shortcomings¹ and for ˹the sins of˺ the believing men and women. For Allah ˹fully˺ knows your movements and places of rest ˹O people˺.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

And the believers say, “If only a sûrah was revealed ˹allowing self-defence˺!” Yet when a precise sûrah is revealed, in which fighting is ˹explicitly˺ mentioned, you see those with sickness in their hearts staring at you like someone in the throes of death. It would have been better for them

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

Those who believe say, "Why has a sūrah¹ not been sent down?" But when a precise sūrah is revealed and battle is mentioned therein, you see those in whose hearts is disease [i.e., hypocrisy] looking at you with a look of one overcome by death. And more appropriate for them² [would have been]

to obey and speak rightly. Then when fighting was ordained, it surely would have been better for them if they were true to Allah.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

These are the ones who Allah has condemned, deafening them and blinding their eyes.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

Those [who do so] are the ones that Allah has cursed, so He deafened them and blinded their vision.

Indeed, those who relapse ˹into disbelief˺ after ˹true˺ guidance has become clear to them, ˹it is˺ Satan ˹that˺ has tempted them, luring them with false hopes.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

Indeed, those who reverted back [to disbelief] after guidance had become clear to them - Satan enticed them and prolonged hope for them.

That is because they said ˹privately˺ to those who ˹also˺ detest what Allah has revealed, “We will obey you in some matters.”¹ But Allah ˹fully˺ knows what they are hiding.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

That is because they said to those who disliked what Allah sent down,¹ "We will obey you in part of the matter." And Allah knows what they conceal.
