At-Tawbah (The Repentance)
Verse 45of 129
إِنَّمَا يَسْتَـْٔذِنُكَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْءَاخِرِ وَٱرْتَابَتْ قُلُوبُهُمْ فَهُمْ فِى رَيْبِهِمْ يَتَرَدَّدُونَ﴿٤٥﴾
Translation (Sahih International)
Only those would ask permission of you who do not believe in Allah and the Last Day and whose hearts have doubted, and they, in their doubt, are hesitating.

Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
Moderately criticizing the Prophet for allowing the Hypocrites to stay behindIbn Abi Hatim recorded that `Awn said, "Have you heard criticism softer than this, starting with forgiveness before criticism,عَفَا اللَّهُ عَنكَ لِمَ أَذِنتَ لَهُمْ(May Allah forgive you. Why did you grant them leave...)" Muwarriq Al-`Ijli and others said similarly.
