Ayah: 98

وَمِنَ ٱلۡأَعۡرَابِ مَن يَتَّخِذُ مَا يُنفِقُ مَغۡرَمٗا وَيَتَرَبَّصُ بِكُمُ ٱلدَّوَآئِرَۚ عَلَيۡهِمۡ دَآئِرَةُ ٱلسَّوۡءِۗ وَٱللَّهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٞ

(98) ^[2209]Among the herds people are those who take what they spend to be a liability^[2210] and lie in wait for turns of fortune against you ˹Believers˺; may the unfortunate turn be against them! Allah is indeed All-Hearing, All-Knowing.
