their brethren, "Come along to us", but come not to the fight except for just a little while.

19. Covetous over you. Then when fear comes, thou wilt see them looking to thee, their
eyes revolving, like (those of) one over whom hovers death: but when the fear is past,
they will smite you with sharp tongues, covetous of goods. Such men have no faith, and
so Allah has made their deeds of none effect: and that is easy for Allah.
