آية: 13

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمۡ ءَامِنُواْ كَمَآ ءَامَنَ ٱلنَّاسُ قَالُوٓاْ أَنُؤۡمِنُ كَمَآ ءَامَنَ ٱلسُّفَهَآءُۗ أَلَآ إِنَّهُمۡ هُمُ ٱلسُّفَهَآءُ وَلَٰكِن لَّا يَعۡلَمُونَ

(13) When it is said to them: “Believe as the ˹other˺ people have Believed”, they say: “Should we Believe as the feeble-minded^[27] have Believed?” Indeed they are the feeble-minded but they know not.

[27] al-Sufahā’, translated here as ‘the feeble-minded’, is an adjective for the noun safah (feeble-mindedness). Safah indicates a person’s inability to distinguish between what is good and what is not. Thus, a person of this nature, unwittingly, inflicts harm on himself. The hypocrites are saying that the Companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) were not able to discern what is good for themselves and consequently they Believed. Little did they know that they are the feeble-minded (cf. al-Ṭabarī, Ibn Kathīr).
