Those, Who Tried to Escape When Needed

 يَحْسَبُونَ الْأَحْزَابَ لَمْ يَذْهَبُوا وَإِن يَأْتِ الْأَحْزَابُ يَوَدُّوا لَوْ أَنَّهُم بَادُونَ فِي الْأَعْرَابِ يَسْأَلُونَ عَنْ أَنبَائِكُمْ وَلَوْ كَانُوا فِيكُم مَّا قَاتَلُوا إِلَّا قَلِيلًا 33:20

(Fathe Muhammad Jalandari)
(خوف کے سبب) خيال کرتے ہيں کہ فوجيں نہيں گئيں. اور اگر لشکر آجائيں تو تمنا کريں کہ (کاش) گنواروں ميں جا رہيں (اور) تمہاري خبر پوچھا کريں. اور اگر تمہارے درميان ہوں تو لڑائي نہ کريں مگر کم 33:20

(Muhammad Assad)
 33:20 They think that the Confederates have not [really] withdrawn; and should the Confederates return, these [hypocrites] would prefer to be in the desert, among the bedouin, asking for news about you, [O believers, from far away;] and even were they to find themselves in your midst, they would but make a pretence at fighting [by your side]. 33:20

(Yousaf Ali)
 33:20 They think that the Confederates have not withdrawn; and if the Confederates should come (again), they would wish they were in the deserts (wandering) among the Bedouins, and seeking news about you (from a safe distance); and if they were in your midst, they would fight but little.33:20
