86
وَإِذا أُنزِلَت سورَةٌ أَن آمِنوا بِاللَّهِ وَجاهِدوا مَعَ رَسولِهِ استَأذَنَكَ أُولُو الطَّولِ مِنهُم وَقالوا ذَرنا نَكُن مَعَ القاعِدينَ

And when a Surah (chapter from the Quran) is revealed, enjoining them to believe in Allah and to strive hard and fight along with His Messenger, the wealthy among them ask your leave to exempt them (from Jihad) and say, "Leave us (behind), we would be with those who sit (at home)."
