47:16

وَمِنْهُم مَّن يَسْتَمِعُ إِلَيْكَ حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا خَرَجُوا۟ مِنْ عِندِكَ قَالُوا۟ لِلَّذِينَ أُوتُوا۟ ٱلْعِلْمَ مَاذَا قَالَ ءَانِفًا ۚ أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ طَبَعَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِمْ وَٱتَّبَعُوٓا۟ أَهْوَآءَهُمْ ١٦

Saheeh International

And among them, [O Muhammad], are those who listen to you, until when they depart from you, they say to those who were given knowledge, "What has he said just now?" Those are the ones of whom Allah has sealed over their hearts and who have followed their [own] desires.

Tafsir of "Ibn Kathir" (English)

The Description of the Situation of the Hypocrites and the Command to maintain Tawhid and seek Forgiveness Allah says,وَمِنْهُم مَّن يَسْتَمِعُ إِلَيْكَحَتَّى إِذَا خَرَجُوا مِنْ عِندِكَAnd among them are some who listen to you till when they go out from you,Allah describes the hypocrites' stupidity and limited understanding. They used to sit before Allah's Messenger and listen to his words without understanding anything. Then when they left from his presence,قَالُوا لِلَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْعِلْمَthey say to those who have received knowledge, (from the Companions). مَاذَا قَالَ انِفًا"What is it that he has said just now?"meaning, at this moment. They did not understand what he said, nor did they care about it.Allah says,أُوْلَيِكَ الَّذِينَ طَبَعَ اللَّهُ عَلَى قُلُوبِهِمْ وَاتَّبَعُوا أَهْوَاءهُمْSuch are the men whose hearts Allah has sealed because they followed their lusts.which means that they had neither sound understanding nor correct intentions.Allah then says
