The Holy Quran 17:76 — Surah Al-Isra

Arabic text

وَإِن كَادُوا۟ لَيَسْتَفِزُّونَكَ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ لِيُخْرِجُوكَ مِنْهَا ۖ وَإِذًا لَّا يَلْبَثُونَ خِلَـٰفَكَ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا

Translation

They (the Mushrikeen of Makkah) were close to uprooting (forcefully expelling) you from this land (Makkah) to remove you from it (However, Allaah commanded Rasulullaah ﷺ to leave by himself.) If this had happened (if they had forcefully driven Rasulullaah ﷺ away from Makkah), only a few of them would have remained behind you (because Allaah's punishment would have destroyed them).

Tafsir (excerpt) — التفسير الميسر

ولقد قارب الكفار أن يخرجوك من «مكة» بإزعاجهم إيَّاك، ولو أخرجوك منها لم يمكثوا فيها بعدك إلا زمنًا قليلا حتى تحل بهم العقوبة العاجلة.
