فَرِحَ ٱلۡمُخَلَّفُونَ بِمَقۡعَدِهِمۡ خِلَٰفَ رَسُولِ ٱللَّهِ وَكَرِهُوٓاْ أَن يُجَٰهِدُواْ بِأَمۡوَٰلِهِمۡ وَأَنفُسِهِمۡ فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ وَقَالُواْ لَا تَنفِرُواْ فِي ٱلۡحَرِّۗ قُلۡ نَارُ جَهَنَّمَ أَشَدُّ حَرّٗاۚ لَّوۡ كَانُواْ يَفۡقَهُونَ
[9:81] Those who were allowed to stay behind rejoiced at remaining behind
and not accompanying the Messenger of Allah. They were averse to striving in
the Way of Allah with their belongings and their lives and told others: "Do
not go forth in this fierce heat." Tell them: "The Hell is far fiercer in heat."
Would that they understand!

فَلۡيَضۡحَكُواْ قَلِيلٗا وَلۡيَبۡكُواْ كَثِيرٗا جَزَآءَۢ بِمَا كَانُواْ يَكۡسِبُونَ
[9:82] Let them, then, laugh little, and weep much at the contemplation of
the punishment for the evil they have committed.

فَإِن رَّجَعَكَ ٱللَّهُ إِلَىٰ طَآئِفَةٖ مِّنۡهُمۡ فَٱسۡتَـٔۡذَنُوكَ لِلۡخُرُوجِ فَقُل لَّن تَخۡرُجُواْ مَعِيَ أَبَدٗا وَلَن تُقَٰتِلُواْ مَعِيَ عَدُوًّاۖ إِنَّكُمۡ رَضِيتُم بِٱلۡقُعُودِ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٖ فَٱقۡعُدُواْ مَعَ ٱلۡخَٰلِفِينَ
[9:83] Then if Allah brings you face to face with a party of them, and they
ask your leave to go forth (to fight in the Way of Allah), tell them: "You shall
not go forth with me, and shall never fight against any enemy along with me.
You were well-pleased to remain at home the first time, so now continue to remain
with those who have stayed behind."
