Verse and interpretation
God Almighty said
If you had been rude and hard-hearted, those around you would have revolted.
The walrus is the thick one
What is meant here
He is thick-speaking
to say next
Hard-hearted
And the meaning
If you, O Muhammad, were ill-spoken and hard-hearted toward people
They will not leave you and leave you
But God brought them together against you
And let us not keep you aside from them to please their hearts
