Verse (48:15)

The analysis above refers to the fifteenth verse of chapter 48 (sūrat l-fatḥ):

Sahih International: Those who remained behind will say when you set out toward the war booty to take it, "Let us follow you." They wish to change the words of Allah. Say, "Never will you follow us. Thus did Allah say before." So they will say, "Rather, you envy us." But [in fact] they were not understanding except a little.
