At-Tawbah 9:118 وعلى الثلاثة الذين خلفوا حتى اذا ضاقت عليهم الارض بما رحبت وضاقت عليهم انفسهم وظنوا ان لا ملجا من الله الا اليه ثم تاب عليهم ليتوبوا ان الله هو التواب الرحيم ١١٨
وَعَلَى
ٱلثَّلَٰثَةِ
ٱلَّذِينَ
خُلِّفُواْ
حَتَّىٰٓ
إِذَا
ضَاقَتۡ
عَلَيۡهِمُ
ٱلۡأَرۡضُ
بِمَا
رَحُبَتۡ
وَضَاقَتۡ
عَلَيۡهِمۡ
أَنفُسُهُمۡ
وَظَنُّوٓاْ
أَن
لَّا
مَلۡجَأَ
مِنَ
ٱللَّهِ
إِلَّآ
إِلَيۡهِ
ثُمَّ
تَابَ
عَلَيۡهِمۡ
لِيَتُوبُوٓاْۚ
إِنَّ
ٱللَّهَ
هُوَ
ٱلتَّوَّابُ
ٱلرَّحِيمُ
