Surah Al-Ahzab Ayah 13

وَإِذۡ قَالَت طَّآئِفَةٞ مِّنۡهُمۡ يَٰٓأَهۡلَ يَثۡرِبَ لَا مُقَامَ لَكُمۡ فَٱرۡجِعُواْۚ وَيَسۡتَـٔۡذِنُ فَرِيقٞ مِّنۡهُمُ ٱلنَّبِيَّ يَقُولُونَ إِنَّ بُيُوتَنَا عَوۡرَةٞ وَمَا هِيَ بِعَوۡرَةٍۖ إِن يُرِيدُونَ إِلَّا فِرَارٗا ١٣

Wa idh qālat ṭāʾifatum minhum yāʾahla yathriba lā muqāma lakum farjiʿū, wa yastaʾdhinu farīqum minhumun-nabiyya yaqūlūna inna buyūtanā ʿawratuw wa mā hiya biʿawrah, iy yurīdūna illā firārā.

And when a faction of them said, "O people of Yathrib,¹ there is no stability for you [here], so return [home]." And a party of them asked permission of the Prophet, saying, "Indeed, our houses are exposed [i.e., unprotected]," while they were not exposed. They did not intend except to flee.
