Aya 88
88
۞ فَما لَكُم فِي المُنافِقينَ فِئَتَينِ وَاللَّهُ أَركَسَهُم بِما كَسَبوا ۚ أَتُريدونَ أَن تَهدوا مَن أَضَلَّ اللَّهُ ۖ وَمَن يُضلِلِ اللَّهُ فَلَن تَجِدَ لَهُ سَبيلًا

(Saheeh International)

What is [the matter] with you [that you are] two groups concerning the hypocrites,1 while Allāh has made them fall back [into error and disbelief] for what they earned.2 Do you wish to guide those whom Allāh has sent astray? And he whom Allāh sends astray – never will you find for him a way [of guidance].3
  • i.e., divided between two viewpoints – whether or not they should be fought and killed.
  • As the result of their disobedience and disloyalty.
  • Allāh (subḥānahu wa ta‘ālā) leaves or sends astray those who choose to reject His guidance.
