Al-Hajj · Ayah 72 · Juz 17 · Page 340

وَإِذَا تُتۡلَىٰ عَلَيۡهِمۡ ءَايَٰتُنَا بَيِّنَٰتٖ تَعۡرِفُ فِي وُجُوهِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ ٱلۡمُنكَرَۖ يَكَادُونَ يَسۡطُونَ بِٱلَّذِينَ يَتۡلُونَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ ءَايَٰتِنَاۗ قُلۡ أَفَأُنَبِّئُكُم بِشَرّٖ مِّن ذَٰلِكُمُۚ ٱلنَّارُ وَعَدَهَا ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْۖ وَبِئۡسَ ٱلۡمَصِيرُ ٧٢

Wa idhā tutlā ʿalayhim āyātunā bayyinātin taʿrifu fī wujūhil-ladhīna kafarul-munkar, yakādūna yasṭūna bil-ladhīna yatlūna ʿalayhim āyātinā, qul afaʾunabbiʾukum bisharrim min dhālikum, an-nāru waʿadahallāhul-ladhīna kafarū, wa biʾsal-maṣīr.

And when Our verses are recited to them as clear evidences, you recognize in the faces of those who disbelieve disapproval. They are almost on the verge of assaulting those who recite to them Our verses. Say, "Then shall I inform you of [what is] worse than that?1 [It is] the Fire which Allāh has promised those who disbelieve, and wretched is the destination."

Translation: Sahih International

Footnotes (1)
  1. i.e., worse than the rage you feel against those who recite Allāh's verses or worse than your threats against them.
