The Holy Quran 4:73 — Surah An-Nisa

Arabic text

وَلَئِنْ أَصَـٰبَكُمْ فَضْلٌ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ لَيَقُولَنَّ كَأَن لَّمْ تَكُنۢ بَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَهُۥ مَوَدَّةٌ يَـٰلَيْتَنِى كُنتُ مَعَهُمْ فَأَفُوزَ فَوْزًا عَظِيمًا

Translation

(On the other hand) If a bounty (such as victory and booty) from Allaah comes to you (while in Jihaad), he (the Munaafiq) will definitely say (regretfully because of greed), as if there existed no love (friendship) between yourselves and him, "Oh dear! If only I had been with them, I would have attained great success!"

Tafsir (excerpt) — التفسير الميسر

ولئن نالكم فضل من الله وغنيمة، ليقولن -حاسدًا متحسرًا، كأن لم تكن بينكم وبينه مودة في الظاهر-: يا ليتني كنت معهم فأظفر بما ظَفِروا به من النجاة والنصرة والغنيمة.
