Al-Munáfiqún 63:4 ۞ واذا رايتهم تعجبك اجسامهم وان يقولوا تسمع لقولهم كانهم خشب مسندة يحسبون كل صيحة عليهم هم العدو فاحذرهم قاتلهم الله انى يوفكون ٤

And when you see them, their forms please you, and if they speak, you listen to their speech. [They are] as if they were pieces of wood propped up¹ - they think that every shout is against them. They are the enemy, so beware of them. May Allāh destroy them; how are they deluded?

When you see them, their appearance impresses you. And when they speak, you listen to their ˹impressive˺ speech. But they are ˹just˺ like ˹worthless˺ planks of wood leaned ˹against a wall˺. They think every cry is against them. They are the enemy, so beware of them. May Allah condemn them! How can they be deluded ˹from the truth˺?
