وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمْ تَعَالَوْاْ إِلَىٰ مَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ وَإِلَى ٱلرَّسُولِ رَأَيْتَ ٱلْمُنَٰفِقِينَ يَصُدُّونَ عَنكَ صُدُوداً

Al Qushairi Tafsir

[4:61] And when it is said to them, 'Come to what God has revealed and the Messenger', you see the hypocrites turn away from you vehemently.
Everything other than the word of the Real is easy for the hypocrites [to hear], but only the sincere hear the words of His unity. Those who are listless and those who are hostile do not hear that which is the real, because opposing whim is difficult for those who are not sincere. Just as the sight of the bat is incapable of facing the sun, the hypocrites were unable to be stand firm before [the Prophet] (ṣ) and that was their vehemently turning away.
