وَإِن كَادُوا۟ لَيَسْتَفِزُّونَكَ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ لِيُخْرِجُوكَ مِنْهَا ۖ وَإِذًۭا لَّا يَلْبَثُونَ خِلَٰفَكَ إِلَّا قَلِيلًۭا
سُورَةُ الإِسۡرَاءِ

And indeed, they were about to drive you from the land to evict you therefrom. And then [when they do], they will not remain [there] after you, except for a little.

اور یہ لوگ اس بات پر بھی تلے رہے ہیں کہ تمہارے قدم اِس سر زمین سے اکھاڑ دیں اور تمہیں یہاں سے نکال باہر کریں لیکن اگر یہ ایسا کریں گے تو تمہارے بعد یہ خود یہاں کچھ زیادہ دیر نہ ٹھیر سکیں گے

Dan sesungguhnya benar-benar mereka hampir membuatmu gelisah di negeri (Mekah) untuk mengusirmu daripadanya dan kalau terjadi demikian, niscaya sepeninggalmu mereka tidak tinggal, melainkan sebentar saja.
Ibn Kathir
The Reason why these Ayat were revealed
This was revealed concerning the disbelievers among the Quraysh, when they wanted to expel the Messenger of Allah ﷺ from among themselves. So Allah issued a warning to them in this Ayah, telling them that if they expelled him, they would not stay in Makkah for very long after that. And this is what happened after he migrated from them when their persecution became so intense. Only a year and a half after that, Allah brought him and them together on the battlefield of Badr, without any pre-arranged appointment, and He caused him to prevail over them and defeat them, so he killed their leaders and took their families as captives. Hence Allah said:
سُنَّةَ مَن قَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا
(A Sunnah with which We sent) meaning this is what We usually do to those who reject Our Messengers and persecute them by driving the Messenger out from among themselves - the punishment comes to them. If it were not for the fact that the Prophet was the Messenger of Mercy, vengeance would have come upon them such as had never been seen before in this world. So Allah says:
وَمَا كَانَ اللَّهُ لِيُعَذِّبَهُمْ وَأَنتَ فِيهِمْ
(And Allah would not punish them while you are among them.) 8:33
أَقِمِ الصَّلَوةَ لِدُلُوكِ الشَّمْسِ إِلَى غَسَقِ الَّيْلِ وَقُرْءَانَ الْفَجْرِ إِنَّ قُرْءَانَ الْفَجْرِ كَانَ مَشْهُودًا
المُيَسَّر
ولقد قارب الكفار أن يخرجوك من "مكة" بإزعاجهم إيَّاك، ولو أخرجوك منها لم يمكثوا فيها بعدك إلا زمنًا قليلا حتى تحل بهم العقوبة العاجلة.
