Tidak datang kepada mereka suatu ayat Al Qur'an pun yang baru (diturunkan) dari Tuhan mereka, melainkan mereka mendengarnya, sedang mereka bermain-main,
maa ya'tiihim min dzikrin min rabbihim muhdatsin 'illaa istama’uuhu wahum yal’abuuna
(Never cometh there unto them) whenever Gabriel comes to their Prophet with (a new reminder from their Lord) i.e. the Qur'an: verse after verse and surah after surah, as if the coming of Gabriel, time after time, and the recitation of Muhammad (pbuh) and their listening to it are new, not that the Qur'an is new, (but they listen to it while they play) while they mock Muhammad (pbuh) and the Qur'an.
