At-Tawbah (The Repentance)
Verse 49of 129
وَمِنْهُم مَّن يَقُولُ ٱئْذَن لِّى وَلَا تَفْتِنِّىٓ ۚ أَلَا فِى ٱلْفِتْنَةِ سَقَطُوا۟ ۗ وَإِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ لَمُحِيطَةٌۢ بِٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ﴿٤٩﴾
Translation (Sahih International)
And among them is he who says, "Permit me [to remain at home] and do not put me to trial." Unquestionably, into trial they have fallen. And indeed, Hell will encompass the disbelievers.

Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
ائْذَن لِّي(Grant me leave), to stay behind,وَلاَ تَفْتِنِّى(and put me not into trial.), if I go with you and see the women of the Romans. Allah, the Exalted, replied,أَلا فِى الْفِتْنَةِ سَقَطُواْ(Surely, they have fallen into trial) because of the statement they uttered.
