السَّبِيلُ
عَلَى
الَّذِينَ
يَسْتَأْذِنُونَكَ
وَهُمْ
أَغْنِيَاءُ
رَضُوا
بِأَن
يَكُونُوا
مَعَ
الْخَوَالِفِ
وَطَبَعَ
اللَّهُ
عَلَى
قُلُوبِهِمْ
فَهُمْ
لَا
يَعْلَمُونَ
ʾinnamā s-sabīlu ʿalā lladhīna yastaʾdhinūnaka wa-hum ʾaghniyāʾu raḍū bi-ʾan yakūnū maʿa l-khawālifi wa-ṭabaʿa llāhu ʿalā qulūbihim fa-hum lā yaʿlamūna
The ground (of complaint) is against such as claim exemption while they are rich. They prefer to stay with the (women) who remain behind: Allah hath sealed their hearts; so they know not (What they miss).
— Abdullah Yusufali
The blame lies only on those who ask leave of you [to stay behind] though they are well-off. They are pleased to be with those who stay back; Allah has set a seal on their hearts, so they do not know [the outcome of their conduct].
