Qur'an 84:21 Al-Inshiqaq
وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْقُرْءَانُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ ۩
And when the Qur'an is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allah]?
Saheeh International
What it says
The complaint is specific and physical. It is not that they argue back. It is that the recitation is put in front of them and their bodies do not move. Hearing with nothing happening in the body is what gets named as the failure.
