وحسبوا الا تكون فتنة فعموا وصموا ثم تاب الله عليهم ثم عموا وصموا كثير منهم والله بصير بما يعملون

They thought there would be No trial (or punishment); So they became blind and deaf; Yet God (in mercy) turned To them; yet again many Of them became blind and deaf. But God sees well All that they do.
