﴿ ۞ أَلَمْ تَرَ إِلَى ٱلَّذِينَ نَافَقُوا۟ يَقُولُونَ لِإِخْوَٰنِهِمُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِنْ أَهْلِ ٱلْكِتَٰبِ لَئِنْ أُخْرِجْتُمْ لَنَخْرُجَنَّ مَعَكُمْ وَلَا نُطِيعُ فِيكُمْ أَحَدًا أَبَدًۭا وَإِن قُوتِلْتُمْ لَنَنصُرَنَّكُمْ وَٱللَّهُ يَشْهَدُ إِنَّهُمْ لَكَٰذِبُونَ ﴾

“ART THOU NOT aware of how those who would always dissemble [their real feelings] speak to their truth-denying brethren from among the followers of earlier revelation: “If you are driven away, we shall most certainly go forth with you, and shall never pay heed to anyone against you; and if war is waged against you, we shall most certainly come to your succour.” But God bears witness that they are most flagrantly lying:”

Have you not considered have you not seen the hypocrites who say to their brethren who disbelieve from among the People of the Scripture namely the Banū al-Nadīr their brethren in disbelief ‘If la-in the lām is for oaths in all four instances you are expelled from Medina we will assuredly go forth with you and we will never obey anyone against you to forsake you. And if you are fought against wa-in qūtiltum the prefatory lām of la-in has been omitted we will certainly help you’. And God bears witness that they are truly liars.
