At-Tawba • EN-TAFSIR-IBN-ABBAS
﴿ قُلْ هَلْ تَرَبَّصُونَ بِنَآ إِلَّآ إِحْدَى ٱلْحُسْنَيَيْنِ ۖ وَنَحْنُ نَتَرَبَّصُ بِكُمْ أَن يُصِيبَكُمُ ٱللَّهُ بِعَذَابٍۢ مِّنْ عِندِهِۦٓ أَوْ بِأَيْدِينَا ۖ فَتَرَبَّصُوٓا۟ إِنَّا مَعَكُم مُّتَرَبِّصُونَ ﴾
“Say: "Are you, perchance, hopefully waiting for something [bad] to happen to us-[the while nothing can happen to us] save one of the two best things? But as far as you are concerned, we are hopefully waiting for God to inflict chastisement upon you, [either] from Himself or by our hands! Wait, then, hopefully; behold, we shall hopefully wait with you!"”
(Say) O Muhammad, to the hypocrites: (Can ye await for us aught save one of two good things) conquest and spoils of war or death and martyrdom? (while we await for you that Allah will afflict you with a doom from Him) to destroy you (or at our hands) with our swords to kill you. (Await then! Lo! we are awaiting with you) for your destruction.
