Some of them you [believers] killed and some you took captive 27 وَأَوۡرَثَكُمۡ أَرۡضَهُمۡ وَدِیَـٰرَهُمۡ وَأَمۡوَ ٰلَهُمۡ وَأَرۡضࣰا لَّمۡ تَطَءُوهَاۚ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَیۡءࣲ قَدِیرࣰا ۝٢٧ wa-awrathakum arḍahum wadiyārahum wa-amwālahum wa-arḍan lam taṭaūhā wakāna l-lahu ʿalā kulli shayin qadīra He passed on to you their land, their houses, their possessions, and a land where you had not set foot: God has power over everything 28 یَـٰۤأَیُّهَا ٱلنَّبِیُّ قُل لِّأَزۡوَ ٰجِكَ إِن كُنتُنَّ تُرِدۡنَ ٱلۡحَیَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنۡیَا وَزِینَتَهَا فَتَعَالَیۡنَ أُمَتِّعۡكُنَّ وَأُسَرِّحۡكُنَّ سَرَاحࣰا جَمِیلࣰا ۝٢٨ yāayyuhā l-nabiyu qul li-azwājika in kuntunna turid'na l-ḥayata l-dun'yā wazīnatahā fataʿālayna umattiʿ'kunna wa-usarriḥ'kunna sarāḥan jamīla Prophet, say to your wives,‘If your desire is for the present life and its finery, then come, I will make provision for you and release you with kindness 29 وَإِن كُنتُنَّ تُرِدۡنَ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ وَٱلدَّارَ ٱلۡءَاخِرَةَ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ أَعَدَّ لِلۡمُحۡسِنَـٰتِ مِنكُنَّ أَجۡرًا عَظِیمࣰا ۝٢٩ wa-in kuntunna turid'na l-laha warasūlahu wal-dāra l-ākhirata fa-inna l-laha aʿadda lil'muḥ'sināti minkunna ajran ʿaẓīma but if you desire God, His Messenger, and the Final Home, then remember that God has prepared great rewards for those of you who do good.’

30 یَـٰنِسَاۤءَ ٱلنَّبِیِّ مَن یَأۡتِ مِنكُنَّ بِفَـٰحِشَةࣲ مُّبَیِّنَةࣲ یُضَـٰعَفۡ لَهَا ٱلۡعَذَابُ ضِعۡفَیۡنِۚ وَكَانَ ذَ ٰلِكَ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ یَسِیرࣰا ۝٣٠ yānisāa l-nabiyi man yati minkunna bifāḥishatin mubayyinatin yuḍāʿaf lahā l-ʿadhābu ḍiʿ'fayni wakāna dhālika ʿalā l-lahi yasīra Wives of the Prophet, if any of you does something clearly outrageous, she will be doubly punished- that is easy for God

31 ۞ وَمَن یَقۡنُتۡ مِنكُنَّ لِلَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِۦ وَتَعۡمَلۡ صَـٰلِحࣰا نُّؤۡتِهَاۤ أَجۡرَهَا مَرَّتَیۡنِ وَأَعۡتَدۡنَا لَهَا رِزۡقࣰا كَرِیمࣰا ۝٣١ waman yaqnut minkunna lillahi warasūlihi wataʿmal ṣāliḥan nu'tihā ajrahā marratayni wa-aʿtadnā lahā riz'qan karīma but if any of you is obedient to God and His Messenger and does good deeds, know that We shall give her a double reward and have prepared a generous provision for her 32 یَـٰنِسَاۤءَ ٱلنَّبِیِّ لَسۡتُنَّ كَأَحَدࣲ مِّنَ ٱلنِّسَاۤءِۛ إِنِ ٱتَّقَیۡتُنَّۛ فَلَا تَخۡضَعۡنَ بِٱلۡقَوۡلِ فَیَطۡمَعَ ٱلَّذِی فِی قَلۡبِهِۦ مَرَضࣱ وَقُلۡنَ قَوۡلࣰا مَّعۡرُوفࣰا ۝٣٢ yānisāa l-nabiyi lastunna ka-aḥadin mina l-nisāi ini ittaqaytunna falā takhḍaʿna bil-qawli fayaṭmaʿa alladhī fī qalbihi maraḍun waqul'na qawlan maʿrūfa Wives of the Prophet, you are not like any other woman. If you are truly mindful of God, do not speak too softly in case the sick at heart should lust after you, but speak in an appropriate manner 33 وَقَرۡنَ فِی بُیُوتِكُنَّ وَلَا تَبَرَّجۡنَ تَبَرُّجَ ٱلۡجَـٰهِلِیَّةِ ٱلۡأُولَىٰۖ وَأَقِمۡنَ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَءَاتِینَ ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ وَأَطِعۡنَ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥۤۚ إِنَّمَا یُرِیدُ ٱللَّهُ لِیُذۡهِبَ عَنكُمُ ٱلرِّجۡسَ أَهۡلَ ٱلۡبَیۡتِ وَیُطَهِّرَكُمۡ تَطۡهِیرࣰا ۝٣٣ waqarna fī buyūtikunna walā tabarrajna tabarruja l-jāhiliyati l-ūlā wa-aqim'na l-ṣalata waātīna l-zakata wa-aṭiʿ'na l-laha warasūlahu innamā yurīdu l-lahu liyudh'hiba ʿankumu l-rij'sa ahla l-bayti wayuṭahhirakum taṭhīra stay at home, and do not flaunt your finery as they used to in the pagan past; keep up the prayer, give the prescribed alms, and obey God and His Messenger. God wishes to keep uncleanness away from you, people of the [Prophet’s] House, and to purify you thoroughly 34 وَٱذۡكُرۡنَ مَا یُتۡلَىٰ فِی بُیُوتِكُنَّ مِنۡ ءَایَـٰتِ ٱللَّهِ وَٱلۡحِكۡمَةِۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ كَانَ لَطِیفًا خَبِیرًا ۝٣٤ wa-udh'kur'na mā yut'lā fī buyūtikunna min āyāti l-lahi wal-ḥik'mati inna l-laha kāna laṭīfan khabīra Remember what is recited in your houses of God’s revelations and wisdom, for God is all subtle, all aware
