Muhammad 47:20 ويقول الذين امنوا لولا نزلت سورة فاذا انزلت سورة محكمة وذكر فيها القتال رايت الذين في قلوبهم مرض ينظرون اليك نظر المغشي عليه من الموت فاولى لهم ٢٠
وَيَقُولُ
ٱلَّذِينَ
ءَامَنُواْ
لَوۡلَا
نُزِّلَتۡ
سُورَةٞۖ
فَإِذَآ
أُنزِلَتۡ
سُورَةٞ
مُّحۡكَمَةٞ
وَذُكِرَ
فِيهَا
ٱلۡقِتَالُ
رَأَيۡتَ
ٱلَّذِينَ
فِي
قُلُوبِهِم
مَّرَضٞ
يَنظُرُونَ
إِلَيۡكَ
نَظَرَ
ٱلۡمَغۡشِيِّ
عَلَيۡهِ
مِنَ
ٱلۡمَوۡتِۖ
فَأَوۡلَىٰ
لَهُمۡ

But it was better for them (hypocrites, to listen to Allâh and to obey Him).
