They say obedience; but when they sally forth from you a party of them harbor other than what they say. God writes down what they harbor [in themselves]. So turn away from them rely on God and God suffices as a Guardian. This means that �when they come to you [Muḥammad] they surrender to your witnessing mushāhada but when they leave the light of your approach iqbāl is cut off and they return to darknesses� just as they say: Whenever he repents he returns to his ignorance just as the one who is feeble suffers a relapse.
