« Verse-42 »
لَوْ كَانَ عَرَضًا قَرِيبًا وَسَفَرًا قَاصِدًا لاَّتَّبَعُوكَ وَلَكِن بَعُدَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الشُّقَّةُ وَسَيَحْلِفُونَ بِاللّهِ لَوِ اسْتَطَعْنَا لَخَرَجْنَا مَعَكُمْ يُهْلِكُونَ أَنفُسَهُمْ وَاللّهُ يَعْلَمُ إِنَّهُمْ لَكَاذِبُونَ
English Transliteration: Lav keana aaraadaan kaareeban va safaran keasıdan lattabaooka va leakin baudat aalayhimush shukkaat(shukkaatu), va sa yaahlifoona billeahi lavistataa'nea la haaraacnea maaakum, yuhlikoona anfusahum, vaalleahu yaa'lamu innahum la keaziboon(keaziboona).
Had it been a near gain (booty in front of them) and an easy journey, they would have followed you, but the distance seemed too far to them. They shall swear by Allah: “If we had been able, we would surely have come forth with you”. They destroy themselves (their souls), and Allah knows that they are most surely liars.
