இன்னும் (இந்தப் போலி விசுவாசிகள்) ஈமான் கொண்டிருப்போரைச் சந்திக்கும் போது, "நாங்கள் ஈமான் கொண்டிருக்கிறோம்" என்று கூறுகிறார்கள்; ஆனால் அவர்கள் தங்கள் (தலைவர்களாகிய) ஷைத்தான்களுடன் தனித்திருக்கும்போது, "நிச்சயமாக நாங்கள் உங்களுடன்தான் இருக்கிறோம்; நிச்சயமாக நாங்கள் (அவர்களைப்) பரிகாசம் செய்பவர்களாகவே இருக்கிறோம்" எனக் கூறுகிறார்கள்.

Tafsir of 2:14
