At-Tawbah 9:110

The building which they built will never cease to be a cause of hypocrisy and doubt in their hearts, unless their hearts are cut to pieces. (i.e. till they die). And Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise.

The structure which they built will remain questionable in their hearts, until their hearts are stopped. God is Knowing and Wise.
