Answer:

Among the believers are menمِّنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ رِجَالٌ

exalting Him within them in the morning and the evenings (37) [Are] men whom neither commerce nor sale distracts from the remembrance of Allahيُسَبِّحُ لَهُ فِيهَا بِالْغُدُوِّ وَالْآصَالِ رِجَالٌ لَّا تُلْهِيهِمْ تِجَارَةٌ وَلَا بَيْعٌ عَن ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ
[An-Nur 24:36-37]

As for others, they are men who contradicted these men whom Allah praised, so their manliness does not benefit them. Their manliness does not benefit them. Yes. The praised manliness is manliness as strength in the truth. Strength in the truth. That is manliness. Yes.
