Surah Al-Jumu'ah — 62:11

وَإِذَا رَأَوْا۟ تِجَـٰرَةً أَوْ لَهْوًا ٱنفَضُّوٓا۟ إِلَيْهَا وَتَرَكُوكَ قَآئِمًا ۚ قُلْ مَا عِندَ ٱللَّهِ خَيْرٌ مِّنَ ٱللَّهْوِ وَمِنَ ٱلتِّجَـٰرَةِ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ خَيْرُ ٱلرَّٰزِقِينَ

Wa izaa ra'aw tijaaratan aw lahwanin faddooo ilaihaa wa tarakooka qaaa'imaa; qul maa 'indal laahi khairum minal lahwi wa minat tijaarah; wallaahu khayrur raaziqeen

Onlar bir kazanç veya bir eğlence gördüklerinde, seni ayakta bırakarak oraya yöneldiler. De ki: "Allah katında olan, eğlenceden de kazançtan da hayırlıdır. Allah, rızık verenlerin en iyisidir."

Yet when they catch sight of some trade or amusement, they scatter toward it and leave you standing. Say, what is with God is better than amusement and trade — and God is the best of providers.

Reflection

Infaddu describes a gathering breaking apart, and it turns up in only three places, each of them about the crowd around the Messenger: here, at 3:159 for what harshness would have done to them, and at 63:7 for what withholding money from them was meant to achieve. The other two name something that did not come about. This is the occurrence where it did.
