The Holy Quran 47:25 — Surah Muhammad

Arabic text

إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱرْتَدُّوا۟ عَلَىٰٓ أَدْبَـٰرِهِم مِّنۢ بَعْدِ مَا تَبَيَّنَ لَهُمُ ٱلْهُدَى ۙ ٱلشَّيْطَـٰنُ سَوَّلَ لَهُمْ وَأَمْلَىٰ لَهُمْ

Translation

Indeed those who have turned their backs after guidance (the proof of Towheed and truth of Islaam) has been made clear to them, Shaytaan has beautified (their sins) for them and prolonged their hopes (because of which they never repent).

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

Shaytan's deception of the hypocrites: that is, the hypocrites, after professing Islam and after its truth has become evident, go back on their word and pledge when the time comes, and do not take part in jihad (striving in the path of Allah).
