  1. وَإِذَا أُنْزِلَتْ سُورَةٌ أَنْ آمِنُوا بِاللَّهِ وَجَاهِدُوا مَعَ رَسُولِهِ اسْتَأْذَنَكَ أُولُو الطَّوْلِ مِنْهُمْ وَقَالُوا ذَرْنَا نَكُنْ مَعَ الْقَاعِدِينَ

    Translation by words

    وَإِذَآ
    And when
    أُنزِلَتْ
    was revealed
    سُورَةٌ
    a Surah
    أَنْ
    that;
    ءَامِنُوا۟
    believe
    بِٱللَّهِ
    in Allah
    وَجَٰهِدُوا۟
    and strive
    مَعَ
    with
    رَسُولِهِ
    His Messenger,
    ٱسْتَـْٔذَنَكَ
    ask your permission
    أُو۟لُوا۟
    (the) men
    ٱلطَّوْلِ
    (of) wealth
    مِنْهُمْ
    among them
    وَقَالُوا۟
    and said,
    ذَرْنَا
    "Leave us,
    نَكُن
    (to) be
    مَّعَ
    with
    ٱلْقَٰعِدِينَ
    those who sit."

    And when a surah was revealed (enjoining them) to believe in Allah and to fight with His Messenger, those of wealth among them asked your permission (to stay back) and said, "Leave us to be with them who sit (at home)."
