4:72

وَإِنَّ مِنكُمْ لَمَن لَّيُبَطِّئَنَّ فَإِنْ أَصَٰبَتْكُم مُّصِيبَةٌ قَالَ قَدْ أَنْعَمَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىَّ إِذْ لَمْ أَكُن مَّعَهُمْ شَهِيدًا

Why this meaning was chosen

The single family occurrence was reviewed on one page. The form-II verb characterizes a person who delays joining the believers and later treats his absence from their calamity as a favor.
