Hard Hearts Watching
وَهُمۡ عَلَىٰ مَا يَفۡعَلُونَ بِٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ شُهُودࣱ ٧
And were themselves the witnesses of what they did to the believers.
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
Meaning
And they witnessed what they did to the believers.
Insight
According to Elmalılı, they were so hard-hearted that they threw believers into the fire and took pleasure in sitting and watching the atrocity.

Do a kindness today that softens your heart.
