( رضوا بأن يكونوا مع الخوالف ) يعني النساء . وقيل : مع أدنياء الناس وسفلتهم . يقال : فلان خالفة قومه إذا كان دونهم . ( وطبع على قلوبهم فهم لا يفقهون ) .
These hypocrites are pleased with disgrace and humiliation, since they are pleased to stay behind with those who are excused. Allah has sealed their hearts because of their disbelief and hypocrisy, so they do not know where their best interests are. They are therefore similar to animals.
