Al-Hashr 59:16 كمثل الشيطان اذ قال للانسان اكفر فلما كفر قال اني بريء منك اني اخاف الله رب العالمين ١٦
كَمَثَلِ
ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنِ
إِذۡ
قَالَ
لِلۡإِنسَٰنِ
ٱكۡفُرۡ
فَلَمَّا
كَفَرَ
قَالَ
إِنِّي
بَرِيٓءٞ
مِّنكَ
إِنِّيٓ
أَخَافُ
ٱللَّهَ
رَبَّ
ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ

[The hypocrites are] like the example of Satan when he says to man, "Disbelieve." But when he disbelieves, he says, "Indeed, I am disassociated from you. Indeed, I fear Allāh, Lord of the worlds."
— Saheeh International
˹They are˺ like Satan when he lures someone to disbelieve. Then after they have done so, he will say ˹on Judgment Day˺, “I have absolutely nothing to do with you. I truly fear Allah—the Lord of all worlds.”1

أَلَمْ تَرَ إِلَى الَّذِينَ نَفَقُواْ يَقُولُونَ لإِخْوَانِهِمُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ مِنْ أَهْل
