Surat Al Anfal: (33-34)

{وَمَا كَانَ اللّهُ لِيُعَذِّبَهُمْ وَأَنتَ فِيهِمْ وَمَا كَانَ اللّهُ مُعَذِّبَهُمْ وَهُمْ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ} [الأنفال: 33]

33- O Prophet, Allah would not have punished them while you were among them because there is no nation was tortured while its prophet is present among them. Allah would not also punish them while they were circulating around the Ka`bah saying: O Allah, we seek Your Forgiveness. Allah would not also punish them while there were believers among them who sought the forgiveness of Allah of the weak Muslims who remained among them.

{وَمَا لَهُمْ أَلاَّ يُعَذِّبَهُمُ اللّهُ وَهُمْ يَصُدُّونَ عَنِ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ وَمَا كَانُواْ أَوْلِيَاءهُ إِنْ أَوْلِيَآؤُهُ إِلاَّ الْمُتَّقُونَ وَلَـكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لاَ يَعْلَمُونَ} [الأنفال: 34]

34- When the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) got out from among them and migrated from Makkah, Allah (Glory be to Him) said which means: Why should not Allah punish them while they were blocking people from circulating around the Ka`bah, and they did not deserve to undertake the affairs of Al Masjid Al Haram while they were disbelievers. Verily, the pious servants of Allah are the believers who avoid polytheism and do not worship anyone but Allah, but most of them do not know that they have power over it.

Allah caused them to be defeated in the battle of Badr and others.
