81. Those ˹hypocrites˺ who remained behind rejoiced for doing so in defiance of the Messenger of Allah and hated ˹the prospect of˺ striving with their wealth and their lives in the cause of Allah. They said ˹to one another˺, "Do not march forth in the heat." Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ "The Fire of Hell is far hotter!" If only they could comprehend!
82. So let them laugh a little - they will weep much as a reward for what they have committed.
83. If Allah returns you ˹O Prophet˺ to a group of them and they ask to go forth with you, say, "You will not ever go forth or fight an enemy along with me. You preferred to stay behind the first time, so stay with those ˹helpless˺ who remain behind."
84. And do not ever offer ˹funeral˺ prayers for any of their dead, nor stand by their grave ˹at burial˺, for they have lost faith in Allah and His Messenger and died rebellious.
85. And let neither their wealth nor children impress you ˹O Prophet˺. Allah only intends to torment them through these things in this world, and ˹then˺ their souls will depart while they are disbelievers.
86. Whenever a sûrah is revealed stating, "Believe in Allah and struggle along with His Messenger," the rich among them would ask to be exempt, saying, "Leave us with those who remain behind."
87. They preferred to stay behind with the helpless, and their hearts have been sealed so they do not comprehend.
88. But the Messenger and the believers with him strived with their wealth and their lives. They will have all the best, and it is they who will be successful.
89. Allah has prepared for them Gardens under which rivers flow, to stay there forever. That is the ultimate triumph.
