who slander such of the believers as give themselves freely to
(deeds of) charity, as well as such as can find nothing to give except
the fruits of their labour,- and throw ridicule on them,- Allah will
throw back their ridicule on them: and they shall have a grievous
penalty.
P: Those who point at such of the believers as give the alms willingly
and such as can find naught to give but their endeavours, and deride
them - Allah (Himself) derideth them. Theirs will be a painful doom.
S: They who taunt those of the faithful who give their alms freely, and
those who give to the extent of their earnings and scoff at them; Allah
will pay them back their scoffing, and they shall have a painful
chastisement.

Y: Whether thou ask for their forgiveness, or not, (their sin is
unforgivable): if thou ask seventy times for their forgiveness, Allah
will not forgive them: because they have rejected Allah and His
Messenger: and Allah guideth not those who are perversely rebellious.
P: Ask forgiveness for them (O Muhammad), or ask not forgiveness for
them; though thou ask forgiveness for them seventy times Allah will not
forgive them. That is because they disbelieved in Allah and His

S: Ask forgiveness for them or do not ask forgiveness for them; even if
you ask forgiveness for them seventy times, Allah will not forgive
them; this is because they disbelieve in Allah and His Messenger, and
Allah does not guide the transgressing people.

Y: Those who were left behind (in the Tabuk expedition) rejoiced in
their inaction behind the back of the Messenger of Allah: they hated to
strive and fight, with their goods and their persons, in the cause of
Allah: they said, "Go not forth in the heat." Say, "The fire of Hell is
fiercer in heat." If only they could understand!
P: Those who were left behind rejoiced at sitting still behind the
messenger of Allah, and were averse to striving with their wealth and
their lives in Allah's way. And they said: Go not forth in the heat!
Say: The fire of hell is more intense of heat, if they but understood.
S: Those who were left behind were glad on account of their sitting
behind Allah's Messenger and they were averse from striving in Allah's
way with their property and their persons, and said: Do not go forth in
the heat. Say: The fire of hell is much severe in heat. Would that they
understood (it).
