The Holy Quran 2:10 — Surah Al-Baqarah

Arabic text

فِى قُلُوبِهِم مَّرَضٌ فَزَادَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ مَرَضًا ۖ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌۢ بِمَا كَانُوا۟ يَكْذِبُونَ

Translation

A disease (of hypocrisy and mistrust) is in their hearts, and Allaah increases their disease (because of their disbelief). They shall suffer a painful punishment on account of the lies they speak (their lie is their claim that they are Muslims).

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

That is, the hypocrisy in their hearts, their hatred of the religion of Islam, and their envy and enmity towards the Muslims — these diseases were already present; now, as they watched the revelation of the Quran, the emergence of the might of Islam and the advancement and divine help granted to the people of Islam, that disease of theirs grew even worse.
