1 Declaration of Immunity

۞ بَرَاۤءَةࣱ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِۦۤ إِلَى ٱلَّذِینَ عَـٰهَدتُّم مِّنَ ٱلۡمُشۡرِكِینَ ۝١

An immunity from God and His messenger to those of the idolaters with whom you made a covenant.

barāatun mina l-lahi warasūlihi ilā alladhīna ʿāhadttum mina l-mush'rikīn

فَسِیحُوا۟ فِی ٱلۡأَرۡضِ أَرۡبَعَةَ أَشۡهُرࣲ وَٱعۡلَمُوۤا۟ أَنَّكُمۡ غَیۡرُ مُعۡجِزِی ٱللَّهِ وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ مُخۡزِی ٱلۡكَـٰفِرِینَ ۝٢

So go about in the land for four months, and know that you cannot escape God, and that God disgraces the disbelievers.

fasīḥū fī l-arḍi arbaʿata ashhurin wa-iʿ'lamū annakum ghayru muʿ'jizī l-lahi wa-anna l-laha mukh'zī l-kāfirīn

وَأَذَ ٰنࣱ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِۦۤ إِلَى ٱلنَّاسِ یَوۡمَ ٱلۡحَجِّ ٱلۡأَكۡبَرِ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ بَرِیۤءࣱ مِّنَ ٱلۡمُشۡرِكِینَ وَرَسُولُهُۥۚ فَإِن تُبۡتُمۡ فَهُوَ خَیۡرࣱ لَّكُمۡۖ وَإِن تَوَلَّیۡتُمۡ فَٱعۡلَمُوۤا۟ أَنَّكُمۡ غَیۡرُ مُعۡجِزِی ٱللَّهِۗ وَبَشِّرِ ٱلَّذِینَ كَفَرُوا۟ بِعَذَابٍ أَلِیمٍ ۝٣

And a proclamation from God and His messenger to the people on the day of the greater pilgrimage, that God and His messenger are free of the idolaters. So if you repent, then it is better for you; and if you turn away, then know that you cannot escape God. And give those who disbelieved glad tidings of painful punishment.

wa-adhānun mina l-lahi warasūlihi ilā l-nāsi yawma l-ḥaji l-akbari anna l-laha barīon mina l-mush'rikīna warasūluhu fa-in tub'tum fahuwa khayrun lakum wa-in tawallaytum fa-iʿ'lamū annakum ghayru muʿ'jizī l-lahi wabashiri alladhīna kafarū biʿadhābin alīmi

إِلَّا ٱلَّذِینَ عَـٰهَدتُّم مِّنَ ٱلۡمُشۡرِكِینَ ثُمَّ لَمۡ یَنقُصُوكُمۡ شَیۡءࣰا وَلَمۡ یُظَـٰهِرُوا۟ عَلَیۡكُمۡ أَحَدࣰا فَأَتِمُّوۤا۟ إِلَیۡهِمۡ عَهۡدَهُمۡ إِلَىٰ مُدَّتِهِمۡۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ یُحِبُّ ٱلۡمُتَّقِینَ ۝٤

Except those of the idolaters with whom you have a covenant, then they have not failed you in anything, and have not backed up anyone against you. So fulfil to them their covenant to their term. Indeed, God loves those who fear.

illā alladhīna ʿāhadttum mina l-mush'rikīna thumma lam yanquṣūkum shayan walam yuẓāhirū ʿalaykum aḥadan fa-atimmū ilayhim ʿahdahum ilā muddatihim inna l-laha yuḥibbu l-mutaqīn

فَإِذَا ٱنسَلَخَ ٱلۡأَشۡهُرُ ٱلۡحُرُمُ فَٱقۡتُلُوا۟ ٱلۡمُشۡرِكِینَ حَیۡثُ وَجَدتُّمُوهُمۡ وَخُذُوهُمۡ وَٱحۡصُرُوهُمۡ وَٱقۡعُدُوا۟ لَهُمۡ كُلَّ مَرۡصَدࣲۚ فَإِن تَابُوا۟ وَأَقَامُوا۟ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَءَاتَوُا۟ ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ فَخَلُّوا۟ سَبِیلَهُمۡۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورࣱ رَّحِیمࣱ ۝٥

Then when the sacred months have passed, then kill the idolaters wherever you find them; and take them, and besiege them, and sit in wait for them in every place of ambush; then if they repent, and are steadfast in the prayer, and give the alms, then let them go their way; Indeed, God is forgiving, compassionate.

fa-idhā insalakha l-ashhuru l-ḥurumu fa-uq'tulū l-mush'rikīna ḥaythu wajadttumūhum wakhudhūhum wa-uḥ'ṣurūhum wa-uq'ʿudū lahum kulla marṣadin fa-in tābū wa-aqāmū l-ṣalata waātawū l-zakata fakhallū sabīlahum inna l-laha ghafūrun raḥīmu

وَإِنۡ أَحَدࣱ مِّنَ ٱلۡمُشۡرِكِینَ ٱسۡتَجَارَكَ فَأَجِرۡهُ حَتَّىٰ یَسۡمَعَ كَلَـٰمَ ٱللَّهِ ثُمَّ أَبۡلِغۡهُ مَأۡمَنَهُۥۚ ذَ ٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمۡ قَوۡمࣱ لَّا یَعۡلَمُونَ ۝٦

And if anyone of the idolaters seek your protection then protect him, until he hears the words of God. Then let him reach his place of safety. That, because they are people who do not know.

wa-in aḥadun mina l-mush'rikīna is'tajāraka fa-ajir'hu ḥattā yasmaʿa kalāma l-lahi thumma abligh'hu mamanahu dhālika bi-annahum qawmun lā yaʿlamūn

2 Reasons for the Immunity

كَیۡفَ یَكُونُ لِلۡمُشۡرِكِینَ عَهۡدٌ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ وَعِندَ رَسُولِهِۦۤ إِلَّا ٱلَّذِینَ عَـٰهَدتُّمۡ عِندَ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِۖ فَمَا ٱسۡتَقَـٰمُوا۟ لَكُمۡ فَٱسۡتَقِیمُوا۟ لَهُمۡۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ یُحِبُّ ٱلۡمُتَّقِینَ ۝٧

How can there be for the idolaters a covenant with God and with His messenger, except those with whom you made a covenant near the sacred mosque? So long as they go straight with you, go straight with them; indeed, God loves those who fear.

kayfa yakūnu lil'mush'rikīna ʿahdun ʿinda l-lahi waʿinda rasūlihi illā alladhīna ʿāhadttum ʿinda l-masjidi l-ḥarāmi famā is'taqāmū lakum fa-is'taqīmū lahum inna l-laha yuḥibbu l-mutaqīn

كَیۡفَ وَإِن یَظۡهَرُوا۟ عَلَیۡكُمۡ لَا یَرۡقُبُوا۟ فِیكُمۡ إِلࣰّا وَلَا ذِمَّةࣰۚ یُرۡضُونَكُم بِأَفۡوَ ٰهِهِمۡ وَتَأۡبَىٰ قُلُوبُهُمۡ وَأَكۡثَرُهُمۡ فَـٰسِقُونَ ۝٨

How, while if they prevail against you they do not regard in you kinship nor treaty? They please you with their mouths, but their hearts refuse; and most of them are disobedient.

kayfa wa-in yaẓharū ʿalaykum lā yarqubū fīkum illan walā dhimmatan yur'ḍūnakum bi-afwāhihim watabā qulūbuhum wa-aktharuhum fāsiqūn

ٱشۡتَرَوۡا۟ بِءَایَـٰتِ ٱللَّهِ ثَمَنࣰا قَلِیلࣰا فَصَدُّوا۟ عَن سَبِیلِهِۦۤۚ إِنَّهُمۡ سَاۤءَ مَا كَانُوا۟ یَعۡمَلُونَ ۝٩

They barter God's signs for a little price, and they hinder from His way; indeed they, evil is what they used to do.

ish'taraw biāyāti l-lahi thamanan qalīlan faṣaddū ʿan sabīlihi innahum sāa mā kānū yaʿmalūn

لَا یَرۡقُبُونَ فِی مُؤۡمِنٍ إِلࣰّا وَلَا ذِمَّةࣰۚ وَأُو۟لَـٰۤىِٕكَ هُمُ ٱلۡمُعۡتَدُونَ ۝١٠

They do not regard in a believer kinship nor treaty; and those, they are the transgressors.

lā yarqubūna fī mu'minin illan walā dhimmatan wa-ulāika humu l-muʿ'tadūn

فَإِن تَابُوا۟ وَأَقَامُوا۟ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَءَاتَوُا۟ ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ فَإِخۡوَ ٰنُكُمۡ فِی ٱلدِّینِۗ وَنُفَصِّلُ ٱلۡءَایَـٰتِ لِقَوۡمࣲ یَعۡلَمُونَ ۝١١

Then if they repent and are steadfast in the prayer and give the alms, then your brothers in religion. We detail the signs to people who know.

fa-in tābū wa-aqāmū l-ṣalata waātawū l-zakata fa-ikh'wānukum fī l-dīni wanufaṣṣilu l-āyāti liqawmin yaʿlamūn

وَإِن نَّكَثُوۤا۟ أَیۡمَـٰنَهُم مِّنۢ بَعۡدِ عَهۡدِهِمۡ وَطَعَنُوا۟ فِی دِینِكُمۡ فَقَـٰتِلُوۤا۟ أَىِٕمَّةَ ٱلۡكُفۡرِ إِنَّهُمۡ لَاۤ أَیۡمَـٰنَ لَهُمۡ لَعَلَّهُمۡ یَنتَهُونَ ۝١٢

And if they break their oaths after their covenant and defame your religion, then fight the leaders of disbelief; indeed, they have no oaths, perhaps they may desist.

wa-in nakathū aymānahum min baʿdi ʿahdihim waṭaʿanū fī dīnikum faqātilū a-immata l-kuf'ri innahum lā aymāna lahum laʿallahum yantahūn

أَلَا تُقَـٰتِلُونَ قَوۡمࣰا نَّكَثُوۤا۟ أَیۡمَـٰنَهُمۡ وَهَمُّوا۟ بِإِخۡرَاجِ ٱلرَّسُولِ وَهُم بَدَءُوكُمۡ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍۚ أَتَخۡشَوۡنَهُمۡۚ فَٱللَّهُ أَحَقُّ أَن تَخۡشَوۡهُ إِن كُنتُم مُّؤۡمِنِینَ ۝١٣

Will you not fight people who broke their oaths, and intended to expel the messenger? And they began with you the first time, are you afraid of them? But God has more right that you should fear Him, if you are believers.

alā tuqātilūna qawman nakathū aymānahum wahammū bi-ikh'rāji l-rasūli wahum badaūkum awwala marratin atakhshawnahum fal-lahu aḥaqqu an takhshawhu in kuntum mu'minīn

قَـٰتِلُوهُمۡ یُعَذِّبۡهُمُ ٱللَّهُ بِأَیۡدِیكُمۡ وَیُخۡزِهِمۡ وَیَنصُرۡكُمۡ عَلَیۡهِمۡ وَیَشۡفِ صُدُورَ قَوۡمࣲ مُّؤۡمِنِینَ ۝١٤

Fight them; God will punish them by your hands, and disgrace them, and help you against them, and heal the breasts of people, believers;

qātilūhum yuʿadhib'humu l-lahu bi-aydīkum wayukh'zihim wayanṣur'kum ʿalayhim wayashfi ṣudūra qawmin mu'minīn

وَیُذۡهِبۡ غَیۡظَ قُلُوبِهِمۡۗ وَیَتُوبُ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ مَن یَشَاۤءُۗ وَٱللَّهُ عَلِیمٌ حَكِیمٌ ۝١٥

And remove the rage from their hearts; and God relents on whom He wills; and God is knowing, wise.

wayudh'hib ghayẓa qulūbihim wayatūbu l-lahu ʿalā man yashāu wal-lahu ʿalīmun ḥakīmu

أَمۡ حَسِبۡتُمۡ أَن تُتۡرَكُوا۟ وَلَمَّا یَعۡلَمِ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِینَ جَـٰهَدُوا۟ مِنكُمۡ وَلَمۡ یَتَّخِذُوا۟ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ وَلَا رَسُولِهِۦ وَلَا ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِینَ وَلِیجَةࣰۚ وَٱللَّهُ خَبِیرُۢ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُونَ ۝١٦

Or do you reckon that you would be left, while God knows not those of you who strive, and do not take other than God, and His messenger and the believers as intimates? And God is aware of what you do.

am ḥasib'tum an tut'rakū walammā yaʿlami l-lahu alladhīna jāhadū minkum walam yattakhidhū min dūni l-lahi walā rasūlihi walā l-mu'minīna walījatan wal-lahu khabīrun bimā taʿmalūn

3 Idolaters' Service of the Sacred House

مَا كَانَ لِلۡمُشۡرِكِینَ أَن یَعۡمُرُوا۟ مَسَـٰجِدَ ٱللَّهِ شَـٰهِدِینَ عَلَىٰۤ أَنفُسِهِم بِٱلۡكُفۡرِۚ أُو۟لَـٰۤىِٕكَ حَبِطَتۡ أَعۡمَـٰلُهُمۡ وَفِی ٱلنَّارِ هُمۡ خَـٰلِدُونَ ۝١٧

It is not for idolaters to repair to the mosques of God, bearing witness against themselves of disbelief; those, their works are void, and in the fire they will abide forever.

mā kāna lil'mush'rikīna an yaʿmurū masājida l-lahi shāhidīna ʿalā anfusihim bil-kuf'ri ulāika ḥabiṭat aʿmāluhum wafī l-nāri hum khālidūn

إِنَّمَا یَعۡمُرُ مَسَـٰجِدَ ٱللَّهِ مَنۡ ءَامَنَ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلۡیَوۡمِ ٱلۡءَاخِرِ وَأَقَامَ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَءَاتَى ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ وَلَمۡ یَخۡشَ إِلَّا ٱللَّهَۖ فَعَسَىٰۤ أُو۟لَـٰۤىِٕكَ أَن یَكُونُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلۡمُهۡتَدِینَ ۝١٨

He only shall repair to the mosques of God who believes in God and the Last Day, and is steadfast in the prayer, and gives the alms, and fears only God; then it may be that those will be of the guided.

innamā yaʿmuru masājida l-lahi man āmana bil-lahi wal-yawmi l-ākhiri wa-aqāma l-ṣalata waātā l-zakata walam yakhsha illā l-laha faʿasā ulāika an yakūnū mina l-muh'tadīn

۞ أَجَعَلۡتُمۡ سِقَایَةَ ٱلۡحَاۤجِّ وَعِمَارَةَ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ كَمَنۡ ءَامَنَ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلۡیَوۡمِ ٱلۡءَاخِرِ وَجَـٰهَدَ فِی سَبِیلِ ٱللَّهِۚ لَا یَسۡتَوُۥنَ عِندَ ٱللَّهِۗ وَٱللَّهُ لَا یَهۡدِی ٱلۡقَوۡمَ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِینَ ۝١٩

Do you make the giving drink to the pilgrims and the repairing to the Sacred Mosque like one who believes in God and the Last Day, and strives in the way of God? They are not equal with God, and God does not guide the unjust people.

ajaʿaltum siqāyata l-ḥāji waʿimārata l-masjidi l-ḥarāmi kaman āmana bil-lahi wal-yawmi l-ākhiri wajāhada fī sabīli l-lahi lā yastawūna ʿinda l-lahi wal-lahu lā yahdī l-qawma l-ẓālimīn

Those who believed and emigrated and strove in the way of God, with their wealth and their souls, are greater in rank with God, and those, they are the successful.

Their Lord gives them glad tidings of mercy from Him, and pleasure; and gardens they shall have wherein is lasting pleasure,

خَـٰلِدِینَ فِیهَاۤ أَبَدًاۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عِندَهُۥۤ أَجۡرٌ عَظِیمࣱ ۝٢٢

Abiding therein forever. Indeed, God, with Him is a great reward.

khālidīna fīhā abadan inna l-laha ʿindahu ajrun ʿaẓīmu

یَـٰۤأَیُّهَا ٱلَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَا تَتَّخِذُوۤا۟ ءَابَاۤءَكُمۡ وَإِخۡوَ ٰنَكُمۡ أَوۡلِیَاۤءَ إِنِ ٱسۡتَحَبُّوا۟ ٱلۡكُفۡرَ عَلَى ٱلۡإِیمَـٰنِۚ وَمَن یَتَوَلَّهُم مِّنكُمۡ فَأُو۟لَـٰۤىِٕكَ هُمُ ٱلظَّـٰلِمُونَ ۝٢٣

O those who believed! Do not take your fathers and your brothers for patrons if they prefer disbelief over belief; and whoever of you takes them for patrons, then those, they are the wrongdoers.

Say, 'If your fathers, and your sons, and your brothers, and your wives, and your kinsfolk, and the wealth which you have gained, and the commerce which you fear may be slack, and the dwellings with which you are pleased are more loved to you than God and His messenger, and striving in His way, then wait until God brings His command, and God does not guide the disobedient people.'

4 Islam made Triumphant in Arabia

لَقَدۡ نَصَرَكُمُ ٱللَّهُ فِی مَوَاطِنَ كَثِیرَةࣲ وَیَوۡمَ حُنَیۡنٍ إِذۡ أَعۡجَبَتۡكُمۡ كَثۡرَتُكُمۡ فَلَمۡ تُغۡنِ عَنكُمۡ شَیۡءࣰا وَضَاقَتۡ عَلَیۡكُمُ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ بِمَا رَحُبَتۡ ثُمَّ وَلَّیۡتُم مُّدۡبِرِینَ ۝٢٥

Certainly, God has helped you in many a place and on the day of Hunayn when your multitude pleased you, then it availed you nothing, and the earth was straitened for you with its vastness; then you turned back, retreating.

laqad naṣarakumu l-lahu fī mawāṭina kathīratin wayawma ḥunaynin idh aʿjabatkum kathratukum falam tugh'ni ʿankum shayan waḍāqat ʿalaykumu l-arḍu bimā raḥubat thumma wallaytum mud'birīn

ثُمَّ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ سَكِینَتَهُۥ عَلَىٰ رَسُولِهِۦ وَعَلَى ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِینَ وَأَنزَلَ جُنُودࣰا لَّمۡ تَرَوۡهَا وَعَذَّبَ ٱلَّذِینَ كَفَرُوا۟ۚ وَذَ ٰلِكَ جَزَاۤءُ ٱلۡكَـٰفِرِینَ ۝٢٦

Then God sent down His tranquillity upon His messenger and upon the believers; and sent down armies which you could not see, and punished those who disbelieved; and that is the reward of the disbelievers.

thumma anzala l-lahu sakīnatahu ʿalā rasūlihi waʿalā l-mu'minīna wa-anzala junūdan lam tarawhā waʿadhaba alladhīna kafarū wadhālika jazāu l-kāfirīn

Then God relents after that on whom He wills, and God is forgiving, compassionate.

thumma yatūbu l-lahu min baʿdi dhālika ʿalā man yashāu wal-lahu ghafūrun raḥīmu

یَـٰۤأَیُّهَا ٱلَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوۤا۟ إِنَّمَا ٱلۡمُشۡرِكُونَ نَجَسࣱ فَلَا یَقۡرَبُوا۟ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدَ ٱلۡحَرَامَ بَعۡدَ عَامِهِمۡ هَـٰذَاۚ وَإِنۡ خِفۡتُمۡ عَیۡلَةࣰ فَسَوۡفَ یُغۡنِیكُمُ ٱللَّهُ مِن فَضۡلِهِۦۤ إِن شَاۤءَۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلِیمٌ حَكِیمࣱ ۝٢٨

O those who believed! The idolaters only are unclean; so let them not come near the Sacred Mosque after this their year. And if you fear poverty, then soon God will enrich you from His grace if He wills; indeed, God is knowing, wise.

Fight those who do not believe in God and the Last Day, and do not forbid what God and His messenger have forbidden, and do not practise the religion of truth from those who have been given the Book, until they give the tribute out of hand while they are as little ones.

5 Islam will Triumph in the World

وَقَالَتِ ٱلۡیَهُودُ عُزَیۡرٌ ٱبۡنُ ٱللَّهِ وَقَالَتِ ٱلنَّصَـٰرَى ٱلۡمَسِیحُ ٱبۡنُ ٱللَّهِۖ ذَ ٰلِكَ قَوۡلُهُم بِأَفۡوَ ٰهِهِمۡۖ یُضَـٰهِءُونَ قَوۡلَ ٱلَّذِینَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِن قَبۡلُۚ قَـٰتَلَهُمُ ٱللَّهُۖ أَنَّىٰ یُؤۡفَكُونَ ۝٣٠

The Jews say, 'Ezra is the son of God.' And the Christians say, 'The Messiah is the son of God.' That is their saying with their mouths, they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before. God fight them. How are they turned away?

They take their scholars and their monks and the Messiah, the son of Mary, for lords besides God; and they were not commanded except to serve one God, there is no god but He; Glory be to Him from what they associate.

They desire to extinguish the light of God with their mouths, but God refuses except to perfect His light, though the disbelievers are averse.

He is the one who sent His messenger with guidance and the religion of truth, to make it prevail over every religion, though the idolaters are averse.

O those who believed! Indeed, many of the scholars and the monks surely consume the wealth of mankind with falsehood, and they hinder from the way of God; And those who treasure up gold and silver and do not spend it in the way of God, so give them glad tidings of painful punishment.

The day it shall be heated in the fire of Hell, and their foreheads shall be branded with it, and their sides and their backs, 'This is what you treasured up for yourselves; so taste what you were treasuring.'

Indeed, the number of months with God is twelve months in God's Book, on the day He created the heavens and the earth; of it, four are sacred; that is the correct religion. So do not wrong yourselves in them. And fight the idolaters wholly, as they fight you wholly, and know that God is with those who fear.

Indeed, the postponing is an increase in disbelief, by it those who disbelieve go astray. They make it lawful one year, and they make it unlawful another year, that they may come to an understanding as to the number which God has made unlawful, and make lawful what God has made unlawful. Beautified for them is the evil of their deeds, and God does not guide the disbelieving people.

یَـٰۤأَیُّهَا ٱلَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوا۟ مَا لَكُمۡ إِذَا قِیلَ لَكُمُ ٱنفِرُوا۟ فِی سَبِیلِ ٱللَّهِ ٱثَّاقَلۡتُمۡ إِلَى ٱلۡأَرۡضِۚ أَرَضِیتُم بِٱلۡحَیَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنۡیَا مِنَ ٱلۡءَاخِرَةِۚ فَمَا مَتَـٰعُ ٱلۡحَیَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنۡیَا فِی ٱلۡءَاخِرَةِ إِلَّا قَلِیلٌ ۝٣٨

O those who believed! What ails you when it is said to you, 'Go forth in the way of God,' You sink down heavily to the earth? Are you pleased with the worldly life instead of the hereafter? But what is the provision of the worldly life in the hereafter except a little.

Unless you go forth He will punish you with painful punishment, and He will substitute with people other than you, and you cannot harm Him anything, and God is powerful over everything.

Unless you help him, and certainly, God helped him, when those who disbelieved drove him out, the second of two. When they both were in the cave; when he said to his companion, 'Do not grieve, indeed, God is with us;' Then God sent down His tranquillity upon him, and strengthened him with hosts which you did not see, and made the word of those who disbelieved the lowest, and the word of God it is the highest; and God is mighty, wise.

Go forth light and heavy and strive with your wealth and your souls in God's way; that is better for you, if you know.

Were there near goods, and a moderate journey, surely they would have followed you; but the distance was too far for them; and they will swear by God, 'If we could, certainly we would have gone forth with you.' They destroy themselves, and God knows indeed they are surely liars.

Those who believe in God and the Last Day would not ask your permission, that they strive with their wealth and their souls; and God knows those who fear.

Only those ask your permission who do not believe in God and the Last Day, and their hearts are in doubt, so they, in their doubt, hesitate.

Had they desired to go forth, surely they would have prepared for it a preparation; but God was averse to their rising up, so He made them halt, and it was said, 'Sit with those who sit.'

Had they gone forth with you they would not have increased you except in ruin and they would certainly have hurried about in your midst seeking the trial for you; and amongst you are those who would have listened to them; and God knows the wrongdoers.

Surely, certainly they had sought the trial before and had turned over the affairs for you; until the truth came, and God's command was made manifest, while they were averse.

If good befalls you, it grieves them and if a calamity befalls you they say, 'Verily, we took our affairs before,' And they turn away while they are rejoicing.

They swear by God to you to please you; and God and His messenger have more right that they should please Him, if they are believers.

Do they not know that he who hinders God and His messenger, then that for him is the fire of Hell, to dwell in it forever? That is great disgrace.

The hypocrites are cautious lest there be revealed against them a chapter to inform them of what is in their hearts; say, 'Mock. Indeed, God will bring out what you are cautious of.'

And surely if you ask them, surely they will definitely say, 'We were only plunging into vain discourse and playing;' Say, 'Is it God and His signs, and His messenger, you were mocking?'

Make no excuse. Verily, you have disbelieved after your belief; if We pardon one party of you, We will punish a party, for that they were sinners.

9 The Hypocrites

ٱلۡمُنَـٰفِقُونَ وَٱلۡمُنَـٰفِقَـٰتُ بَعۡضُهُم مِّنۢ بَعۡضࣲۚ یَأۡمُرُونَ بِٱلۡمُنكَرِ وَیَنۡهَوۡنَ عَنِ ٱلۡمَعۡرُوفِ وَیَقۡبِضُونَ أَیۡدِیَهُمۡۚ نَسُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ فَنَسِیَهُمۡۚ إِنَّ ٱلۡمُنَـٰفِقِینَ هُمُ ٱلۡفَـٰسِقُونَ ۝٦٧

The hypocrite men and the hypocrite women, some of them are of some, they bid the bad and forbid from the good, and they clench their hands. They forget God, and He forgets them. Indeed, the hypocrites, they are the disobedient.

God has promised the hypocrite men and the hypocrite women and the disbelievers, Hell-fire, to dwell in it forever; it is enough for them. And God has cursed them, and for them is enduring punishment.

Like those who were before you. They were mightier than you in strength and more abundant in wealth and children; so they enjoyed their portion, and you enjoy your portion, as those before you enjoyed their portion; and you have plunged into vain discourse like the one who plunged into vain discourse. Those, their works are void in the world and the hereafter, and those, they are the losers.

Has there not come to them the news of those who were before them, the people of Noah, and 'Ad, and Thamud, and the people of Abraham and the companions of Midian and the overturned cities? Their messengers came to them with the clear proofs; and God was not to wrong them, but they were wronging themselves.

And the believers, men and women, some of them are patrons of some; they bid the good and forbid from the bad, and they are steadfast in the prayer, and they give the alms, and they obey God and His messenger. Those, God will have mercy on them. Indeed, God is mighty, wise.

God has promised the believers, men and women, gardens beneath which the rivers flow; to dwell in it forever; and good dwellings in gardens of Eden, and the pleasure of God is greater. That, it is the great success.

10 The Hypocrites

یَـٰۤأَیُّهَا ٱلنَّبِیُّ جَـٰهِدِ ٱلۡكُفَّارَ وَٱلۡمُنَـٰفِقِینَ وَٱغۡلُظۡ عَلَیۡهِمۡۚ وَمَأۡوَىٰهُمۡ جَهَنَّمُۖ وَبِئۡسَ ٱلۡمَصِیرُ ۝٧٣

O prophet! Strive against the disbelievers and the hypocrites, and be harsh with them; and their abode is Hell, and evil is the destination.

yāayyuhā l-nabiyu jāhidi l-kufāra wal-munāfiqīna wa-ugh'luẓ ʿalayhim wamawāhum jahannamu wabi'sa l-maṣīr

They swear by God they did not speak, and certainly they spoke the word of disbelief; and they disbelieved after their submission, and they intended what they could not attain; and they took not vengeance except that God and His messenger enriched them of His grace. So if they repent, it is better for them, and if they turn away, God will punish them with a painful punishment in the world and the hereafter. And they shall not have in the earth any patron nor helper.

And of them is he who made a covenant with God, 'If He gives us of His grace, surely we will give charity and we will surely be among the righteous.'

But when He gave them of His grace, they were stingy with it and turned away and they swerved aside.

So He has made the consequence hypocrisy in their hearts to the day they shall meet Him, because they failed God in what they promised Him, and because they used to lie.

Do they not know that God knows their secret and their secret discourse, and that God knows the unseen?

Those who defame those of the believers who give the charities willingly and those who find not except their effort, and who mock them, God mocks them and for them is painful punishment.

Ask forgiveness for them or do not ask forgiveness for them. If you ask forgiveness for them seventy times, God will not forgive them. That is because they disbelieved in God and His messenger, and God does not guide the disobedient people.

Those who were left behind rejoiced in their sitting behind God's messenger, and were averse to striving with their wealth and their souls in God's way, and they said, 'Do not go forth in the heat.' Say, 'The fire of Hell is more intense heat,' If they were to understand.

So if God returns you to a party of them, and they ask your permission to go out, then say, 'You shall not go out with me ever, and you shall not fight an enemy with me. Indeed, you were pleased with sitting the first time, so sit with those who stay behind.'

And do not pray over anyone of them who dies ever, nor stand over his grave. Indeed, they disbelieved in God and His messenger and died while they were disobedient.

And let not their wealth and their children please you, God only desires to punish them with it in the world, and their souls pass away while they are disbelievers.

On the weak, and on the sick, and on those who cannot find what to spend there is no straitness when they are sincere to God and His messenger. There is no way against the good-doers. And God is forgiving, compassionate.

وَلَا عَلَى ٱلَّذِینَ إِذَا مَاۤ أَتَوۡكَ لِتَحۡمِلَهُمۡ قُلۡتَ لَاۤ أَجِدُ مَاۤ أَحۡمِلُكُمۡ عَلَیۡهِ تَوَلَّوا۟ وَّأَعۡیُنُهُمۡ تَفِیضُ مِنَ ٱلدَّمۡعِ حَزَنًا أَلَّا یَجِدُوا۟ مَا یُنفِقُونَ ۝٩٢

Nor on those to whom, when they came to you that you should provide them with mounts, you said, 'I cannot find what to mount you on,' They turned away while their eyes poured forth with tears of grief that they could not find what to spend.

The way is only on those who ask your permission while they are rich; they are pleased to be with those who stay behind, and God has set a stamp on their hearts, so they do not know.

They will make excuses to you when you return to them. Say, 'Make no excuse, we will not believe you. Verily, God has informed us of your news. And soon God will see your works and His messenger; then you will be brought back to the knower of the unseen and the seen; and He will inform you of what you used to do.'

Soon they will swear to you by God when you return to them, that you may turn away from them. So turn away from them, indeed, they are unclean, and their abode is Hell, a recompense for what they have earned.

They swear to you that you may be pleased with them. But if you are pleased with them, then indeed, God is not pleased with the disobedient people.

The desert Arabs are stronger in disbelief and hypocrisy and are more likely not to know the limits of what God has sent down on His messenger; and God is knowing, wise.

And of the desert Arabs is he who takes what He spends as a debt, and awaits turns of fortune for you. Upon them will be the turn of evil fortune; God is hearing, knowing.

And of the desert Arabs is he who believes in God and the Last Day, and takes what he spends as a means of nearness with God and the prayers of the messenger; lo, indeed, it is a means of nearness for them. God will make them enter into His mercy; indeed, God is forgiving, compassionate.

13 The Hypocrites

وَٱلسَّـٰبِقُونَ ٱلۡأَوَّلُونَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُهَـٰجِرِینَ وَٱلۡأَنصَارِ وَٱلَّذِینَ ٱتَّبَعُوهُم بِإِحۡسَـٰنࣲ رَّضِیَ ٱللَّهُ عَنۡهُمۡ وَرَضُوا۟ عَنۡهُ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُمۡ جَنَّـٰتࣲ تَجۡرِی تَحۡتَهَا ٱلۡأَنۡهَـٰرُ خَـٰلِدِینَ فِیهَاۤ أَبَدࣰاۚ ذَ ٰلِكَ ٱلۡفَوۡزُ ٱلۡعَظِیمُ ۝١٠٠

And the foremost, the first of the emigrants, and the helpers, and those who followed them in goodness, God is pleased with them and they are pleased with Him; and He has prepared for them gardens beneath which the rivers flow, to dwell in it forever; that is the great success.

And among those around you of the desert Arabs are hypocrites, and of the people of Al Madinah; they persist in hypocrisy; you do not know them, We, We know them. We will punish them twice, then they will be returned to a great punishment.

And others have confessed their sins. They have mixed a righteous deed with other evil. It may be that God will relent on them; indeed, God is forgiving, compassionate.

Take of their wealth charity to cleanse them and to purify them thereby; and pray for them; indeed, your prayer is a repose for them; and God is hearing, knowing.

Do they not know that God, He accepts the repentance from His servants, and takes the charities; and that God, He is the Relenting, the Compassionate.

And say, 'Work; and God will see your work, and His messenger, and the believers, and you will be brought back to the knower of the unseen and the seen, and He will inform you of what you used to do.'

And others are put off to the command of God; whether He will punish them, or whether He will relent on them; and God is knowing, wise.

waākharūna mur'jawna li-amri l-lahi immā yuʿadhibuhum wa-immā yatūbu ʿalayhim wal-lahu ʿalīmun ḥakīmu

And those who have taken a mosque for harm, and for disbelief, and for division amongst the believers, and for an ambush for whoever warred against God and His messenger before. And surely they will swear, 'We desired not except good;' And God bears witness indeed, they are surely liars.

wa-alladhīna ittakhadhū masjidan ḍirāran wakuf'ran watafrīqan bayna l-mu'minīna wa-ir'ṣādan liman ḥāraba l-laha warasūlahu min qablu walayaḥlifunna in aradnā illā l-ḥus'nā wal-lahu yashhadu innahum lakādhibūn

Do not stand in it ever. Certainly a mosque founded on piety from the first day has more right that you should stand in it. In it are men who love to be clean; and God loves the clean.

Then is he who founded his building on the fear and pleasure of God better, or he who founded his building on the edge of a crumbling precipice, so it crumbles with him into the fire of Hell? And God does not guide the wrongdoing people.

Their building which they built will not cease to be doubt in their hearts except their hearts are cut. And God is knowing, wise.

14 The Faithful

۞ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ ٱشۡتَرَىٰ مِنَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِینَ أَنفُسَهُمۡ وَأَمۡوَ ٰلَهُم بِأَنَّ لَهُمُ ٱلۡجَنَّةَۚ یُقَـٰتِلُونَ فِی سَبِیلِ ٱللَّهِ فَیَقۡتُلُونَ وَیُقۡتَلُونَۖ وَعۡدًا عَلَیۡهِ حَقࣰّا فِی ٱلتَّوۡرَىٰةِ وَٱلۡإِنجِیلِ وَٱلۡقُرۡءَانِۚ وَمَنۡ أَوۡفَىٰ بِعَهۡدِهِۦ مِنَ ٱللَّهِۚ فَٱسۡتَبۡشِرُوا۟ بِبَیۡعِكُمُ ٱلَّذِی بَایَعۡتُم بِهِۦۚ وَذَ ٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلۡفَوۡزُ ٱلۡعَظِیمُ ۝١١١

Indeed, God has bought from the believers their souls and their wealth, because for them is the Garden. They fight in the way of God, and they slay and they are slain. A true promise upon Him, in the Torah and the Gospel and the Quran; and who fulfils His covenant than God? So rejoice in your sale which you have made with Him. And that, it is the great success.

Those who repent, those who worship, those who praise, those who journey for the purpose of devoting to religious services, those who bow down, those who prostrate, those who bid the good, and those who forbid from the bad, and those who guard the limits of God; and give glad tidings to those who believed.

It is not for the prophet and those who believed that they ask forgiveness for the idolaters, even though they are relatives, after what has been made manifest to them, that they are the fellows of Hell.

mā kāna lilnnabiyyi wa-alladhīna āmanū an yastaghfirū lil'mush'rikīna walaw kānū ulī qur'bā min baʿdi mā tabayyana lahum annahum aṣḥābu l-jaḥīm

And Abraham asking forgiveness for his father was only because of a promise which he had promised him; but when it was made manifest to him that he was an enemy to God, he disowned him; indeed, Abraham was compassionate, clement.

wamā kāna is'tigh'fāru ib'rāhīma li-abīhi illā ʿan mawʿidatin waʿadahā iyyāhu falammā tabayyana lahu annahu ʿaduwwun lillahi tabarra-a min'hu inna ib'rāhīma la-awwāhun ḥalīmu

وَمَا كَانَ ٱللَّهُ لِیُضِلَّ قَوۡمَۢا بَعۡدَ إِذۡ هَدَىٰهُمۡ حَتَّىٰ یُبَیِّنَ لَهُم مَّا یَتَّقُونَۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ بِكُلِّ شَیۡءٍ عَلِیمٌ ۝١١٥

And God will not lead astray people after He has guided them until He makes clear to them what they should fear. Indeed, God knows all things.

wamā kāna l-lahu liyuḍilla qawman baʿda idh hadāhum ḥattā yubayyina lahum mā yattaqūna inna l-laha bikulli shayin ʿalīmu

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَهُۥ مُلۡكُ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَ ٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِۖ یُحۡیِۦ وَیُمِیتُۚ وَمَا لَكُم مِّن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مِن وَلِیࣲّ وَلَا نَصِیرࣲ ۝١١٦

Indeed, God's is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth; He gives life and He causes death; and you have not besides God a patron nor helper.

inna l-laha lahu mul'ku l-samāwāti wal-arḍi yuḥ'yī wayumītu wamā lakum min dūni l-lahi min waliyyin walā naṣīri

Surely, certainly God has relented on the prophet and the emigrants, and the helpers, those who followed him in the hour of difficulty, after the hearts of a party of them had almost deviated; then He relented on them; indeed, with them He is pitying, compassionate.

And to the three of those who were left behind, until when the earth, with its vastness, was straitened for them, and their souls were straitened for them, and they thought that there was no refuge from God except to Him. Then He relented on them that they may repent; indeed, God, He is the Relenting, the Compassionate.

O those who believed! Fear God and be with those who are truthful.

مَا كَانَ لِأَهۡلِ ٱلۡمَدِینَةِ وَمَنۡ حَوۡلَهُم مِّنَ ٱلۡأَعۡرَابِ أَن یَتَخَلَّفُوا۟ عَن رَّسُولِ ٱللَّهِ وَلَا یَرۡغَبُوا۟ بِأَنفُسِهِمۡ عَن نَّفۡسِهِۦۚ ذَ ٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمۡ لَا یُصِیبُهُمۡ ظَمَأࣱ وَلَا نَصَبࣱ وَلَا مَخۡمَصَةࣱ فِی سَبِیلِ ٱللَّهِ وَلَا یَطَءُونَ مَوۡطِئࣰا یَغِیظُ ٱلۡكُفَّارَ وَلَا یَنَالُونَ مِنۡ عَدُوࣲّ نَّیۡلًا إِلَّا كُتِبَ لَهُم بِهِۦ عَمَلࣱ صَـٰلِحٌۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا یُضِیعُ أَجۡرَ ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِینَ ۝١٢٠

It was not for the people of Al Madinah, and those around them of the desert Arabs, to stay behind the messenger of God and to prefer their souls to his soul. That is because neither thirst, nor fatigue, nor hunger befell them in God's way, nor do they step a step enraging the disbelievers, nor attain from an enemy an attainment, except a righteous deed is thereby written for them. Indeed, God does not waste the reward of the good-doers.

mā kāna li-ahli l-madīnati waman ḥawlahum mina l-aʿrābi an yatakhallafū ʿan rasūli l-lahi walā yarghabū bi-anfusihim ʿan nafsihi dhālika bi-annahum lā yuṣībuhum ẓama-on walā naṣabun walā makhmaṣatun fī sabīli l-lahi walā yaṭaūna mawṭi-an yaghīẓu l-kufāra walā yanālūna min ʿaduwwin naylan illā kutiba lahum bihi ʿamalun ṣāliḥun inna l-laha lā yuḍīʿu ajra l-muḥ'sinīn

وَلَا یُنفِقُونَ نَفَقَةࣰ صَغِیرَةࣰ وَلَا كَبِیرَةࣰ وَلَا یَقۡطَعُونَ وَادِیًا إِلَّا كُتِبَ لَهُمۡ لِیَجۡزِیَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ أَحۡسَنَ مَا كَانُوا۟ یَعۡمَلُونَ ۝١٢١

Nor do they spend an expenditure, small or great, nor do they cross a valley except it is written for them, that God may reward them the best of what they used to do.

walā yunfiqūna nafaqatan ṣaghīratan walā kabīratan walā yaqṭaʿūna wādiyan illā kutiba lahum liyajziyahumu l-lahu aḥsana mā kānū yaʿmalūn

۞ وَمَا كَانَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنُونَ لِیَنفِرُوا۟ كَاۤفَّةࣰۚ فَلَوۡلَا نَفَرَ مِن كُلِّ فِرۡقَةࣲ مِّنۡهُمۡ طَاۤىِٕفَةࣱ لِّیَتَفَقَّهُوا۟ فِی ٱلدِّینِ وَلِیُنذِرُوا۟ قَوۡمَهُمۡ إِذَا رَجَعُوۤا۟ إِلَیۡهِمۡ لَعَلَّهُمۡ یَحۡذَرُونَ ۝١٢٢

And it is not for the believers to march forth wholly; and if a troop of every division of them march not forth, that they may obtain understanding in the religion, and that they may warn their people when they return to them, that perhaps they may beware.

wamā kāna l-mu'minūna liyanfirū kāffatan falawlā nafara min kulli fir'qatin min'hum ṭāifatun liyatafaqqahū fī l-dīni waliyundhirū qawmahum idhā rajaʿū ilayhim laʿallahum yaḥdharūn

16 Prophet's Great Anxiety

یَـٰۤأَیُّهَا ٱلَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوا۟ قَـٰتِلُوا۟ ٱلَّذِینَ یَلُونَكُم مِّنَ ٱلۡكُفَّارِ وَلۡیَجِدُوا۟ فِیكُمۡ غِلۡظَةࣰۚ وَٱعۡلَمُوۤا۟ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ مَعَ ٱلۡمُتَّقِینَ ۝١٢٣

O those who believed! Fight those who are near to you of the disbelievers, and let them find sternness in you; and know that God is with those who fear.

yāayyuhā alladhīna āmanū qātilū alladhīna yalūnakum mina l-kufāri walyajidū fīkum ghil'ẓatan wa-iʿ'lamū anna l-laha maʿa l-mutaqīn

وَإِذَا مَاۤ أُنزِلَتۡ سُورَةࣱ فَمِنۡهُم مَّن یَقُولُ أَیُّكُمۡ زَادَتۡهُ هَـٰذِهِۦۤ إِیمَـٰنࣰاۚ فَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوا۟ فَزَادَتۡهُمۡ إِیمَـٰنࣰا وَهُمۡ یَسۡتَبۡشِرُونَ ۝١٢٤

And whenever a chapter is sent down, of them are those who say, 'Which of you has this increased in faith?' Then as for those who believed, it increases them in faith, and they rejoice.

wa-idhā mā unzilat sūratun famin'hum man yaqūlu ayyukum zādathu hādhihi īmānan fa-ammā alladhīna āmanū fazādathum īmānan wahum yastabshirūn

وَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِینَ فِی قُلُوبِهِم مَّرَضࣱ فَزَادَتۡهُمۡ رِجۡسًا إِلَىٰ رِجۡسِهِمۡ وَمَاتُوا۟ وَهُمۡ كَـٰفِرُونَ ۝١٢٥

And as for those in whose hearts is sickness, it adds uncleanness to their uncleanness, and they die while they are disbelievers.

wa-ammā alladhīna fī qulūbihim maraḍun fazādathum rij'san ilā rij'sihim wamātū wahum kāfirūn

أَوَ لَا یَرَوۡنَ أَنَّهُمۡ یُفۡتَنُونَ فِی كُلِّ عَامࣲ مَّرَّةً أَوۡ مَرَّتَیۡنِ ثُمَّ لَا یَتُوبُونَ وَلَا هُمۡ یَذَّكَّرُونَ ۝١٢٦

Do they not see that they are tried in every year once or twice? Then they do not repent and they, they do not remember.

awalā yarawna annahum yuf'tanūna fī kulli ʿāmin marratan aw marratayni thumma lā yatūbūna walā hum yadhakkarūn

وَإِذَا مَاۤ أُنزِلَتۡ سُورَةࣱ نَّظَرَ بَعۡضُهُمۡ إِلَىٰ بَعۡضٍ هَلۡ یَرَىٰكُم مِّنۡ أَحَدࣲ ثُمَّ ٱنصَرَفُوا۟ۚ صَرَفَ ٱللَّهُ قُلُوبَهُم بِأَنَّهُمۡ قَوۡمࣱ لَّا یَفۡقَهُونَ ۝١٢٧

And whenever a chapter is sent down, some of them look at others: 'Does any one see you?' Then they turn away. God has turned away their hearts because they are people who do not understand.

wa-idhā mā unzilat sūratun naẓara baʿḍuhum ilā baʿḍin hal yarākum min aḥadin thumma inṣarafū ṣarafa l-lahu qulūbahum bi-annahum qawmun lā yafqahūn

لَقَدۡ جَاۤءَكُمۡ رَسُولࣱ مِّنۡ أَنفُسِكُمۡ عَزِیزٌ عَلَیۡهِ مَا عَنِتُّمۡ حَرِیصٌ عَلَیۡكُم بِٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِینَ رَءُوفࣱ رَّحِیمࣱ ۝١٢٨

Certainly there has come to you a messenger from yourselves; mighty on him is what distressed you; eager over you, with the believers, pitying, compassionate.

laqad jāakum rasūlun min anfusikum ʿazīzun ʿalayhi mā ʿanittum ḥarīṣun ʿalaykum bil-mu'minīna raūfun raḥīmu

فَإِن تَوَلَّوۡا۟ فَقُلۡ حَسۡبِیَ ٱللَّهُ لَاۤ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَۖ عَلَیۡهِ تَوَكَّلۡتُۖ وَهُوَ رَبُّ ٱلۡعَرۡشِ ٱلۡعَظِیمِ ۝١٢٩

Then if they turn away, then say, 'God is enough for me, there is no god but He, on Him I rely, and He is the Lord of the great throne.'

fa-in tawallaw faqul ḥasbiya l-lahu lā ilāha illā huwa ʿalayhi tawakkaltu wahuwa rabbu l-ʿarshi l-ʿaẓīm
