بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
إِذَا جَاۤءَكَ ٱلۡمُنَـٰفِقُونَ قَالُوا۟ نَشۡهَدُ إِنَّكَ لَرَسُولُ ٱللَّهِۗ وَٱللَّهُ یَعۡلَمُ إِنَّكَ لَرَسُولُهُۥ وَٱللَّهُ یَشۡهَدُ إِنَّ ٱلۡمُنَـٰفِقِینَ لَكَـٰذِبُونَ ۝١
Abdel Haleem
When the hypocrites come to you [Prophet], they say, ‘We bear witness that you are the Messenger of God.’ God knows that you truly are His Messenger and He bears witness that the hypocrites are liars––

إذا حضر مجلسك المنافقون -أيها الرسول- قالوا بألسنتهم، نشهد إنك لرسول الله، والله يعلم إنك لرسول الله، والله يشهد إن المنافقين لكاذبون فيما أظهروه من شهادتهم لك، وحلفوا عليه بألسنتهم، وأضمروا الكفر به.

ٱتَّخَذُوۤا۟ أَیۡمَـٰنَهُمۡ جُنَّةࣰ فَصَدُّوا۟ عَن سَبِیلِ ٱللَّهِۚ إِنَّهُمۡ سَاۤءَ مَا كَانُوا۟ یَعۡمَلُونَ ۝٢
Abdel Haleem
they use their oaths as a cover and so bar others from God’s way: what they have been doing is truly evil––
King Fahd Quran Complex

إنما جعل المنافقون أيمانهم التي أقسموها سترة ووقاية لهم من المؤاخذة والعذاب، ومنعوا أنفسهم، ومنعوا الناس عن طريق الله المستقيم، إنهم بئس ما كانوا يعملون؛ ذلك لأنهم آمنوا في الظاهر، ثم كفروا في الباطن، فختم الله على قلوبهم بسبب كفرهم، فهم لا يفهمون ما فيه صلاحهم.

Abdel Haleem
because they professed faith and then rejected it, so their hearts have been sealed and they do not understand

۞ وَإِذَا رَأَیۡتَهُمۡ تُعۡجِبُكَ أَجۡسَامُهُمۡۖ وَإِن یَقُولُوا۟ تَسۡمَعۡ لِقَوۡلِهِمۡۖ كَأَنَّهُمۡ خُشُبࣱ مُّسَنَّدَةࣱۖ یَحۡسَبُونَ كُلَّ صَیۡحَةٍ عَلَیۡهِمۡۚ هُمُ ٱلۡعَدُوُّ فَٱحۡذَرۡهُمۡۚ قَـٰتَلَهُمُ ٱللَّهُۖ أَنَّىٰ یُؤۡفَكُونَ ۝٤
Abdel Haleem
When you see them [Prophet], their outward appearance pleases you; when they speak, you listen to what they say. But they are like propped-up tim-bers––they think every cry they hear is against them––and they are the enemy. Beware of them. May God confound them! How devious they are
King Fahd Quran Complex

وإذا نظرت إلى هؤلاء المنافقين تعجبك هيئاتهم ومناظرهم، وإن يتحدثوا تسمع لحديثهم؛ لفصاحة ألسنتهم، وهم لفراغ قلوبهم من الإيمان، وعقولهم من الفهم والعلم النافع كالأخشاب الملقاة على الحائط، التي لا حياة فيها، يظنون كل صوت عال واقعًا عليهم وضارًا بهم؛ لعلمهم بحقيقة حالهم، ولفرط جبنهم، والرعب الذي تمكَّن من قلوبهم، هم الأعداء الحقيقيون شديدو العداوة لك وللمؤمنين، فخذ حذرك منهم، أخزاهم الله وطردهم من رحمته، كيف ينصرفون عن الحق إلى ما هم فيه من النفاق والضلال؟

وَإِذَا قِیلَ لَهُمۡ تَعَالَوۡا۟ یَسۡتَغۡفِرۡ لَكُمۡ رَسُولُ ٱللَّهِ لَوَّوۡا۟ رُءُوسَهُمۡ وَرَأَیۡتَهُمۡ یَصُدُّونَ وَهُم مُّسۡتَكۡبِرُونَ ۝٥
Abdel Haleem
They turn their heads away in disdain when they are told, ‘Come, so that the Messenger of God may ask forgiveness for you,’ and you see them walking away arrogantly
King Fahd Quran Complex

وإذا قيل لهؤلاء المنافقين: أقبلوا تائبين معتذرين عمَّا بدر منكم من سيِّئ القول وسفه الحديث، يستغفر لكم رسول الله ويسأل الله لكم المغفرة والعفو عن ذنوبكم، أمالوا رؤوسهم وحركوها استهزاءً واستكبارًا، وأبصرتهم -أيها الرسول- يعرضون عنك، وهم مستكبرون عن الامتثال لما طُلِب منهم.

سَوَاۤءٌ عَلَیۡهِمۡ أَسۡتَغۡفَرۡتَ لَهُمۡ أَمۡ لَمۡ تَسۡتَغۡفِرۡ لَهُمۡ لَن یَغۡفِرَ ٱللَّهُ لَهُمۡۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا یَهۡدِی ٱلۡقَوۡمَ ٱلۡفَـٰسِقِینَ ۝٦
Abdel Haleem
It makes no difference whether you ask forgiveness for them or not, God will not forgive them: God does not guide such treacherous people
King Fahd Quran Complex

سواء على هؤلاء المنافقين أطلبت لهم المغفرة من الله -أيها الرسول- أم لم تطلب لهم، إن الله لن يصفح عن ذنوبهم أبدًا؛ لإصرارهم على الفسق ورسوخهم في الكفر. إن الله لا يوفِّق للإيمان القوم الكافرين به، الخارجين عن طاعته.

هُمُ ٱلَّذِینَ یَقُولُونَ لَا تُنفِقُوا۟ عَلَىٰ مَنۡ عِندَ رَسُولِ ٱللَّهِ حَتَّىٰ یَنفَضُّوا۟ۗ وَلِلَّهِ خَزَاۤىِٕنُ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَ ٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَلَـٰكِنَّ ٱلۡمُنَـٰفِقِینَ لَا یَفۡقَهُونَ ۝٧
Abdel Haleem
They are the ones who say, ‘Give nothing to those who follow God’s Messenger, until they abandon him’, but to God belong the treasures of the heavens and earth, though the hypocrites do not understand this
King Fahd Quran Complex

هؤلاء المنافقون هم الذين يقولون لأهل "المدينة": لا تنفقوا على أصحاب رسول الله من المهاجرين حتى يتفرقوا عنه. ولله وحده خزائن السموات والأرض وما فيهما من أرزاق، يعطيها من يشاء ويمنعها عمَّن يشاء، ولكن المنافقين ليس لديهم فقه ولا ينفعهم ذلك.

یَقُولُونَ لَىِٕن رَّجَعۡنَاۤ إِلَى ٱلۡمَدِینَةِ لَیُخۡرِجَنَّ ٱلۡأَعَزُّ مِنۡهَا ٱلۡأَذَلَّۚ وَلِلَّهِ ٱلۡعِزَّةُ وَلِرَسُولِهِۦ وَلِلۡمُؤۡمِنِینَ وَلَـٰكِنَّ ٱلۡمُنَـٰفِقِینَ لَا یَعۡلَمُونَ ۝٨
Abdel Haleem
They say, ‘Once we return to Medina the powerful will drive out the weak,’ but power belongs to God, to His Messenger, and to the believers, though the hypocrites do not know this
King Fahd Quran Complex

يقول هؤلاء المنافقون: لئن عُدْنا إلى "المدينة" ليخرجنَّ فريقنا الأعزُّ منها فريق المؤمنين الأذل، ولله تعالى العزة ولرسوله صلى الله عليه وسلم، وللمؤمنين بالله ورسوله لا لغيرهم، ولكن المنافقين لا يعلمون ذلك؛ لفرط جهلهم.

یَـٰۤأَیُّهَا ٱلَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَا تُلۡهِكُمۡ أَمۡوَ ٰلُكُمۡ وَلَاۤ أَوۡلَـٰدُكُمۡ عَن ذِكۡرِ ٱللَّهِۚ وَمَن یَفۡعَلۡ ذَ ٰلِكَ فَأُو۟لَـٰۤىِٕكَ هُمُ ٱلۡخَـٰسِرُونَ ۝٩
Abdel Haleem
Believers, do not let your wealth and your children distract you from remembering God: those who do so will be the ones who lose
King Fahd Quran Complex

يا أيها الذين صدَّقوا الله ورسوله وعملوا بشرعه، لا تَشْغَلْكم أموالكم ولا أولادكم عن عبادة الله وطاعته، ومن تشغَله أمواله وأولاده عن ذلك، فأولئك هم المغبونون حظوظهم من كرامة الله ورحمته.

وَأَنفِقُوا۟ مِن مَّا رَزَقۡنَـٰكُم مِّن قَبۡلِ أَن یَأۡتِیَ أَحَدَكُمُ ٱلۡمَوۡتُ فَیَقُولَ رَبِّ لَوۡلَاۤ أَخَّرۡتَنِیۤ إِلَىٰۤ أَجَلࣲ قَرِیبࣲ فَأَصَّدَّقَ وَأَكُن مِّنَ ٱلصَّـٰلِحِینَ ۝١٠
Abdel Haleem
Give out of what We have provided for you, before death comes to one of you and he says, ‘My Lord, if You would only reprieve me for a little while, I would give in charity and become one of the righteous.’
King Fahd Quran Complex

وأنفقوا -أيها المؤمنون- بالله ورسوله بعض ما أعطيناكم في طرق الخير، مبادرين بذلك من قبل أن يجيء أحدكم الموت، ويرى دلائله وعلاماته، فيقول نادمًا: ربِّ هلا أمهلتني، وأجَّلت موتي إلى وقت قصير، فأتصدق من مالي، وأكن من الصالحين الأتقياء.

Abdel Haleem
God does not reprieve a soul when its turn comes: God is fully aware of what you do

ولن يؤخر الله نفسًا إذا جاء وقت موتها، وانقضى عمرها، والله سبحانه خبير بالذي تعملونه من خير وشر، وسيجازيكم على ذلك.
