(Nor unto those whom, when they came to you (asking) that thou shouldest mount them) spend on them so that they take part in jihad. The reference here is to 'Abdullah Ibn Maghfal Ibn Yasar al-Muzani, Salim Ibn 'Umayr al-Ansari and their fellow Companions, (thou didst tell) them: (I cannot find) provision (whereon to mount you) for jihad. (They turned back) they left you (with eyes flowing with tears, for sorrow that they could not find the means to spend) for jihad.

Al-Jalalayn Commentary
Nor against those who when they came to you so that you might give them a mount to ride with you on the raid — these were seven men of the Ansār; but it is also said that they were the Banū Muqrin — you having said to them ‘I cannot find a mount whereon to mount you’ this last sentence is a circumstantial qualifier turned back this is the response to the clause beginning with idhā ‘when’ that is they departed their eyes flowing pouring with tears min al-dam‘i min is explicative for sorrow that they could not find the means to expend for the campaign struggle.
