[47:20]

And those who believe say: If only a surah were revealed! But when a decisive surah is revealed and war is mentioned therein, thou seest those in whose hearts is a disease looking at thee with the look of men fainting unto death. Therefor woe unto them!

[47:21]

Obedience and a civil word. Then, when the matter is determined, if they are loyal to Allah it will be well for them.

[47:22]

Would ye then, if ye were given the command, work corruption in the land and sever your ties of kinship ?

[47:23]

Such are they whom Allah curseth so that He deafeneth them and maketh blind their eyes.

[47:24]

Will they then not meditate on the Qur’an, or are there locks on the hearts ?

[47:25]

Lo! those who turn back after the guidance hath been manifested unto them, Satan hath seduced them, and He giveth them the rein.

[47:26]

That is because they say unto those who hate what Allah hath revealed: We will obey you in some matters; and Allah knoweth their secret talk.

[47:27]

Then how (will it be with them) when the angels gather them, smiting their faces and their backs!

[47:28]

That will be because they followed that which angereth Allah, and hated that which pleaseth Him. Therefor He hath made their actions vain.

[47:29]

Or do those in whose hearts is a disease deem that Allah will not bring to light their (secret) hates ?
