Ayah: 74

يَحۡلِفُونَ بِٱللَّهِ مَا قَالُواْ وَلَقَدۡ قَالُواْ كَلِمَةَ ٱلۡكُفۡرِ وَكَفَرُواْ بَعۡدَ إِسۡلَٰمِهِمۡ وَهَمُّواْ بِمَا لَمۡ يَنَالُواْۚ وَمَا نَقَمُوٓاْ إِلَّآ أَنۡ أَغۡنَىٰهُمُ ٱللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُۥ مِن فَضۡلِهِۦۚ فَإِن يَتُوبُواْ يَكُ خَيۡرٗا لَّهُمۡۖ وَإِن يَتَوَلَّوۡاْ يُعَذِّبۡهُمُ ٱللَّهُ عَذَابًا أَلِيمٗا فِي ٱلدُّنۡيَا وَٱلۡأٓخِرَةِۚ وَمَا لَهُمۡ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ مِن وَلِيّٖ وَلَا نَصِيرٖ

74. They (the hypocrites) swear by Allāh that they have not said (anything blasphemous), while they had already uttered the word of blasphemy, and disbelieved after their Islam, and they resolved that to which they could not attain27. And they were not resentful except that Allah and His Messenger had enriched them of His bounty. So if they repent, it is better for them, but if they turn away, Allāh will chastise them with a painful chastisement in this world and in the Hereafter, and they will not have in the land any protector nor helper.

27. To murder the Prophet Muhammad.
