مَا كَانَ لِلْمُشْرِكِیْنَ اَنْ یَّعْمُرُوْا مَسٰجِدَ اللّٰهِ شٰهِدِیْنَ عَلٰۤى اَنْفُسِهِمْ بِالْكُفْرِؕ-اُولٰٓىٕكَ حَبِطَتْ اَعْمَالُهُمْ ۚۖ-وَ فِی النَّارِ هُمْ خٰلِدُوْنَ(۱۷)

Translation

Say, [O Muhammad], "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 Allah and His Messenger and jihad in His cause, then wait until Allah executes His command. And Allah does not guide the defiantly disobedient people."
