وَقَالَ الَّذِيۡنَ اتَّبَعُوۡا لَوۡ اَنَّ لَنَا كَرَّةً فَنَتَبَرَّاَ مِنۡهُمۡ كَمَا تَبَرَّءُوۡا مِنَّا ؕ كَذٰلِكَ يُرِيۡهِمُ اللّٰهُ اَعۡمَالَهُمۡ حَسَرٰتٍ عَلَيۡهِمۡؕ وَمَا هُمۡ بِخٰرِجِيۡنَ مِنَ النَّارِ

Wa-qaa-lul-la-zee-nut-ta-ba-oo
Lao-un-na-la-naa-kur-ra-ton-fa-na-ta-bur-ra-aa-min-hoom
Ka-maa-ta-bur-ra-oo-min-naa
Ka-zaa-lay-ka-yo-ree-hay-mool-laa-ho-au-maa-la-hoom-ha-sa-raa-tin-alai-him
Wa-maa-hoom-bay-kha-ray-jee-na-may-nun-naar.

And those who had followed would say
“If we really had another go
Then we would disconnect from them like they have disconnected with us.”
Like this Allah will show them their actions as anguishes to them.
And they won’t be those exiting the Fire.

* Note 002:168a.   The mutual renunciation between leaders and their follower occurs often right in this world.   The reason for the renunciation usually is a wrong one party has done to some of the others.   The intense remorse and regret for the evil done becomes a fire which no one really escapes.   This extrapolation is done by several people including M Muhammad Ali.
** Note 002:168b.   This part of the verse describes the Rule of Universal Application that ‘Everyone reaps what he sows.’   It is beautifully verbalized by A Yusuf Ali as follows in his Note C-50

“The Society thus organised
Must live under laws
That would guide their every-day life
Based on eternal principles
Of righteousness and fair dealing.”
