سورة الأنفال، الآية ٢٣Surah Al-Anfal, ayah 23 (8:23)
وَلَوۡ عَلِمَ ٱللَّهُ فِيهِمۡ خَيۡرًا لَّأَسۡمَعَهُمۡ وَلَوۡ أَسۡمَعَهُمۡ لَتَوَلَّواْ وَّهُم مُّعۡرِضُونَ ٢٣
The meaning in English
Had Allâh known of any good in them, He would indeed have made them listen; and even if He had made them listen, they would but have turned away with aversion (to the truth).

التفسير الميسر
ولو علم الله في هؤلاء خيرًا لأسمعهم مواعظ القرآن وعبره حتى يعقلوا عن الله عز وجل حججه وبراهينه، ولكنه علم أنه لا خير فيهم وأنهم لا يؤمنون، ولو أسمعهم -على الفرض والتقدير- لتولَّوا عن الإيمان قصدًا وعنادًا بعد فهمهم له، وهم معرضون عنه، لا التفات لهم إلى الحق بوجه من الوجوه
