60:2

إِن يَثۡقَفُوكُمۡ يَكُونُواۡ لَكُمۡ أَعۡدَآءً وَيَبۡسُطُوٓاۡ إِلَيۡكُمۡ أَيۡدِيَهُمۡ وَأَلۡسِنَتَهُم بِٱلسُّوٓءِ وَوَدُّواۡ لَوۡ تَكۡفُرُونَ٢

Saheeh International

If they gain dominance over you, they would be to you as enemies and extend against you their hands and their tongues with evil, and they wish you would disbelieve.

Tafsir "Ibn Kathir" (English)

إِن يَثْقَفُوكُمْ يَكُونُوا لَكُمْ أَعْدَاء وَيَبْسُطُوا إِلَيْكُمْ أَيْدِيَهُمْ وَأَلْسِنَتَهُم بِالسُّوءِAnd whosoever of you does that, then indeed he has gone astray from the straight path.Should they gain the upper hand over you, they would behave to you as enemies, and stretch forth their hands and their tongues against you with evil,meaning, `if they gain the upper hand over you, they would use every type of harm in their disposal to hurt you in words and action,'وَوَدُّوا لَوْ تَكْفُرُونَand they desire that you should disbelieve.meaning, `they are eager that you do not earn any good. Therefore, their enmity to you is outward and inward, so how can you become supporters of this type of people?' This also encourages the enmity.Allah's statement,لَن تَنفَعَكُمْ أَرْحَامُكُمْ وَلَا أَوْلَادُكُمْيَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يَفْصِلُ بَيْنَكُمْوَاللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ بَصِيرٌ
