وهذا ضد ما وصف به أصحاب اليمين بقوله ﴿الَّذِينَ يُقِيمُونَ الصَّلاةَ وَمِمَّا رَزَقْنَاهُمْ يُنْفِقُونَ﴾

This contrasts with the description of the companions of the right hand, about whom it is said, 'They establish prayer and spend from what We have provided them.'

وُصِفَ was described

This is a past-tense passive verb, 'was described', where the describer is unstated. Arabic marks the passive by reshaping the inner vowels alone, with no helper word, keeping focus on the described rather than the one describing.
