 33:13 and when some of them said, O you people of Yathrib! You cannot withstand [the enemy] here:  hence, go back [to your homes]!  Whereupon a party from among them asked leave of the Prophet, saying, Behold, our houses are exposed [to attack]!  The while they were not [really] exposed: they wanted nothing but to flee.33:13

 33:13 Behold! A party among them said: "Ye men of Yathrib! ye cannot stand (the attack)! therefore go back!" And a band of them ask for leave of the Prophet, saying, "Truly our houses are bare and exposed," though they were not exposed they intended nothing but to run away.33:13
