The hypocrites are cautious they fear lest a sūra should be revealed to them that is to the believers informing them of what is in their the hypocrites’ hearts of hypocrisy and yet despite this they persist in mockery. Say ‘Keep mocking! this is an imperative of threat God will bring out He will make manifest that hypocrisy of yours of which you are fearful’ lest it be brought out.
- 9:6464
يَحْذَرُ الْمُنَافِقُونَ أَنْ تُنَزَّلَ عَلَيْهِمْ سُورَةٌ تُنَبِّئُهُمْ بِمَا فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ ۚ قُلِ اسْتَهْزِئُوا إِنَّ اللَّهَ مُخْرِجٌ مَا تَحْذَرُونَ
The hypocrites fear lest a Surah is revealed concerning them, exposing what is in their hearts. Say to them: "Mock as much as you like; God will surely expose what you dread."
