Sura 24
Aya 53
53
۞ وَأَقسَموا بِاللَّهِ جَهدَ أَيمانِهِم لَئِن أَمَرتَهُم لَيَخرُجُنَّ ۖ قُل لا تُقسِموا ۖ طاعَةٌ مَعروفَةٌ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ خَبيرٌ بِما تَعمَلونَ

(Saheeh International)

And they swear by Allāh their strongest oaths that if you ordered them, they would go forth [in Allāh's cause]. Say, "Do not swear. [Such] obedience is known.1 Indeed, Allāh is Acquainted with that which you do."
  • i.e., the hypocrites' pretense of obedience is known to be a lie.
