wandering Arabs
....

And those among the wandering Arabs who had
an excuse came in order that permission might be
granted them. And those who lied to Allah and
His messenger sat at home. A painful doom will
fall on those of them who disbelieve.

The wandering Arabs are more hard in disbelief
and hypocrisy, and more likely to be ignorant
of the limits which Allah hath revealed unto
His messenger
1

And of the wandering Arabs there is he who taketh
that which he expendeth (for the cause of Allah ),
as a loss, and awaiteth (evil) turns of fortune for
you (that he may be rid of it). 
The evil turn of fortune will be theirs
1

And of the wandering Arabs there is he who believeth
in Allah and the Last day, and taketh that which
he expandeth and also the prayers of the messenger
as acceptable offering for in the sight of Allah.
Lo! verily it is an acceptable offering for them.
Allah will bring them into His mercy.
1 

And among those around you of the wandering Arabs
there are hypocrites, and among the townspeople
of Al-Mad'inah( there are some who) persist in
hypocrisy whom thou (O Muhammad) knowest not.
We, We know them, and We shall chastise them
twice; then they will be relegated to a painful doom.
1

It is not for the townsfolk of Al-Madinah and for
those around them of the wandering Arabs to stay
behind the messenger of Allah and prefer their
lives to his life
