Al-Isra' · Ayah 46 · Juz 15 · Page 286

وَجَعَلۡنَا عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِمۡ أَكِنَّةً أَن يَفۡقَهُوهُ وَفِيٓ ءَاذَانِهِمۡ وَقۡرٗاۚ وَإِذَا ذَكَرۡتَ رَبَّكَ فِي ٱلۡقُرۡءَانِ وَحۡدَهُۥ وَلَّوۡاْ عَلَىٰٓ أَدۡبَٰرِهِمۡ نُفُورٗا ٤٦

Wa jaʿalnā ʿalā qulūbihim akinnatan ay yafqahūhu wa fī ādhānihim waqrā, wa idhā dhakarta rabbaka fil-qurʾāni waḥdahū wallaw ʿalā adbārihim nufūrā.

And We have placed over their hearts coverings, lest they understand it, and in their ears deafness. And when you mention your Lord alone in the Qur’ān, they turn back in aversion.
