4:143
مذبذبين بين ذالك لا الى هاولاء ولا الى هاولاء ومن يضلل الله فلن تجد له سبيلا ١٤٣
مُّذَبْذَبِينَ بَيْنَ ذَٰلِكَ لَآ إِلَىٰ هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ وَلَآ إِلَىٰ هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ ۚ وَمَن يُضْلِلِ ٱللَّهُ فَلَن تَجِدَ لَهُۥ سَبِيلًۭا ١٤٣
مُّذَبۡذَبِينَ
بَيۡنَ
ذَٰلِكَ
لَآ
إِلَىٰ
هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ
وَلَآ
إِلَىٰ
هَٰٓؤُلَآءِۚ
وَمَن
يُضۡلِلِ
ٱللَّهُ
فَلَن
تَجِدَ
لَهُۥ
سَبِيلٗا
١٤٣
Torn between belief and disbelief—belonging neither to these ˹believers˺ nor those ˹disbelievers˺. And whoever Allah leaves to stray, you will never find for them a way.

You are reading a tafsir for the group of verses 4:142 to 4:144

Maulana Ashraf ` Ali Thanavi (رح) has, in his Tafsir Bay-an al-Qur'an, taken up the question of 'standing up lazily' in the expression: قَامُوا كُسَالَ which appears in verse 142 saying: 'The laziness censured here is doctrinal laziness, (that is, slothfulness towards observance of the articles of faith due to lack of true conviction). However, laziness which is there despite correct beliefs stands excluded from the purview of this censure. Then, should this laziness be there due to some excuse, such as, sickness, fatigue or sleepiness, it is not even blameworthy. But, when without excuse, it is.'
