Surah Al-Maaida · Ayah 52·Madanī

52

ٱلَّذِينَ فِى فِيهِمْ أَن أَن أَوْ مِّنْ عَلَىٰ مَآ فِىٓ ﴿٥٢﴾

Translation

Saheeh International

So you see those in whose hearts is disease hastening into [association with] them, saying, "We are afraid a misfortune may strike us." But perhaps Allah will bring conquest or a decision from Him, and they will become, over what they have been concealing within themselves, regretful.
