Verse 24

قُلْ Say إِن If كَانَ are ءَابَآؤُكُمْ your fathers وَأَبْنَآؤُكُمْ and your sons وَإِخْوَٰنُكُمْ and your brothers وَأَزْوَٰجُكُمْ and your spouses وَعَشِيرَتُكُمْ and your relatives وَأَمْوَٰلٌ and wealth ٱقْتَرَفْتُمُوهَا that you have acquired وَتِجَـٰرَةٌۭ and the commerce تَخْشَوْنَ you fear كَسَادَهَا a decline (in) it وَمَسَـٰكِنُ and the dwellings تَرْضَوْنَهَآ you delight (in) it أَحَبَّ (are) more beloved إِلَيْكُم to you مِّنَ than ٱللَّهِ Allah وَرَسُولِهِۦ and His Messenger وَجِهَادٍۢ and striving فِى in سَبِيلِهِۦ His way فَتَرَبَّصُوا۟ then wait حَتَّىٰ until يَأْتِىَ Allah brings ٱللَّهُ Allah brings بِأَمْرِهِۦ ۗ His Command وَٱللَّهُ And Allah لَا (does) not يَهْدِى guide ٱلْقَوْمَ the people ٱلْفَـٰسِقِينَ the defiantly disobedient ٢٤

Say, [O Muḥammad], "If your fathers, your sons, your brothers, your wives, your relatives, wealth which you have obtained, commerce wherein you fear decline, and dwellings with which you are pleased are more beloved to you than Allāh and His Messenger and jihād [i.e., striving] in His cause, then wait until Allāh executes His command. And Allāh does not guide the defiantly disobedient people."
