9:81

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!

Those who were left behind were happy to stay behind when God’s Messenger set out; they hated the thought of striving in God’s way with their possessions and their persons. They said to one another, ‘Do not go [to war] in this heat.’ Say, ‘Hellfire is hotter.’ If only they understood!

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.

Those who remained behind rejoiced in their staying [at home] after [the departure of] the Messenger of Allāh and disliked to strive with their wealth and their lives in the cause of Allāh and said, "Do not go forth in the heat." Say, "The fire of Hell is more intense in heat" - if they would but understand.

Allah'ın Peygamberinin hilafına geri kalanlar, oturup kalmalarına sevindiler. Allah yolunda mallariyle ve canlariyle cihat hoşlarına gitmedi. "Sıcakta savaşa çıkmayın" dediler. De ki: "Cehennem ateşi daha sıcaktır." Keşke bilseydiler!

Savaştan geri kalan münafıklar, Resulullah'ın hilafına, onun savaşa gitmesine karşılık, oturup kalmalarıyla ferahladılar ve mallarıyla, canlarıyla Allah yolunda cihad etmekten hoşlanmadılar, üstelik "Bu sıcakta savaşa gitmeyin." dediler. De ki: "Cehennem ateşi daha sıcaktır." Keşke anlayabilselerdi.

Allah’ın Elçisi'ne muhalefet etmek için geri kalanlar (sefere çıkmayıp) oturmaları ile sevinmişler, mallarıyla, canlarıyla Allah yolunda cihad (fedakârlık) etmeyi çirkin görmüşler ve “Bu sıcakta sefere çıkmayın.” demişlerdi. De ki: “Cehennem ateşi daha sıcaktır! Keşke anlasalardı!”

فرح المخلفون الذين تخلفوا عن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم بقعودهم في (المدينة) مخالفين لرسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، وكرهوا أن يجاهدوا معه بأموالهم وأنفسهم في سبيل الله، وقال بعضهم لبعض: لا تنفروا في الحرِّ، وكانت غزوة (تبوك) في وقت شدة الحرِّ. قل لهم -أيها الرسول-: نار جهنم أشد حرًا، لو كانوا يعلمون ذلك.
