66:4
إِنْ تَتُوبَا إِلَى اللَّهِ فَقَدْ صَغَتْ قُلُوبُكُمَا وَإِنْ تَظَاهَرَا عَلَيْهِ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ مَوْلاَه ُُ وَجِبْرِيلُ وَصَالِحُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَالْمَلاَئِكَةُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ ظَهِير ٌ
'In Tatūbā 'Ilá Allāhi Faqad Şaghat Qulūbukumā Wa 'In Tažāharā `Alayhi Fa'inna Allāha Huwa Mawlāhu Wa Jibrīlu Wa Şāliĥu Al-Mu'uminīna Wa Al-Malā'ikatu Ba`da Dhālika žahīrun

Wa Litaşghá 'Ilayhi 'Af'idatu Al-Ladhīna Lā Yu'uminūna Bil-'Ākhirati Wa LiyarĐawhu Wa Liyaqtarifū Mā Hum Muqtarifūna
That is so the hearts of those who do not believe in the Hereafter will listen to it, and they will accept it, and they will take of it what they will.
