Sura 48 Al-Fath (The Victory), ayah 15

  1. سَيَقُولُ الْمُخَلَّفُونَ إِذَا انْطَلَقْتُمْ إِلَىٰ مَغَانِمَ لِتَأْخُذُوهَا ذَرُونَا نَتَّبِعْكُمْ ۖ يُرِيدُونَ أَنْ يُبَدِّلُوا كَلَامَ اللَّهِ ۚ قُلْ لَنْ تَتَّبِعُونَا كَذَٰلِكُمْ قَالَ اللَّهُ مِنْ قَبْلُ ۖ فَسَيَقُولُونَ بَلْ تَحْسُدُونَنَا ۚ بَلْ كَانُوا لَا يَفْقَهُونَ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا

    مَغَانِمَ
    (the) spoils of war
    لِتَأْخُذُوهَا
    to take it,
    ذَرُونَا
    "Allow us
    نَتَّبِعْكُمْ
    (to) follow you."

    They wish
    أَن
    to
    يُبَدِّلُوا۟

    (of) Allah.

    "Never
    تَتَّبِعُونَا
    will you follow us.
    كَذَٰلِكُمْ
    Thus
    قَالَ
    Allah said

    a little.

    Those who remained behind will say when you set out toward the war booty to take it, "Let us follow you." They wish to change the words of Allah. Say, "Never will you follow us. Thus did Allah say before." So they will say, "Rather, you envy us." But (in fact) they were not understanding except a little.
