And these disbelieving ones turning away said to the Prophet Muhammad peace and blessings of Allah be upon him: "Our hearts are in coverings preventing us from the understanding of what you call us to, and in our ears is a deafness so we do not hear, and from between us and between you-O Muhammad-is a screen that veils us from responding to your call, so work according to your religion, as we are workers according to our religion."
