«وَمِنْهُ الْقَوْلُ بِالْمُوجِبِ، وَهُوَ ضَرْبَانِ»
“Qawl bi-l-mūjib has two forms.”
A speaker takes an opponent's wording and accepts it under a different referent or meaning, thereby turning the assertion against the opponent's intention.
«لَيُخْرِجَنَّ الْأَعَزُّ مِنْهَا الْأَذَلَّ»
“The more honoured will surely expel the more humiliated from it.”
The hypocrites applied “more honoured” and “more humiliated” to the parties they intended. The Qur’anic response reassigns the rightful referents of honour, redirecting the claim without needing to abandon the words themselves.
