Say,
"Never will we be struck except by what Allah has decreed for
us; He is our protector." And upon Allah let the believers
rely.








Say,
"Do you await for us except one of the two best things
while we await for you that Allah will afflict you with
punishment from Himself or at our hands? So wait; indeed we,
along with you, are waiting."








Say,
"Spend willingly or unwillingly; never will it be accepted
from you. Indeed, you have been a defiantly disobedient people."








And
what prevents their expenditures from being accepted from them
but that they have disbelieved in Allah and in His Messenger
and that they come not to prayer except while they are lazy
and that they do not spend except while they are unwilling.








So
let not their wealth or their children impress you. Allah only
intends to punish them through them in worldly life and that
their souls should depart [at death] while they are
disbelievers.








And
they swear by Allah that they are from among you while they
are not from among you; but they are a people who are afraid.








If
they could find a refuge or some caves or any place to
enter [and hide], they would turn to it while they run
heedlessly.








And
among them are some who criticize you concerning the
[distribution of] charities. If they are given from them, they
approve; but if they are not given from them, at once they
become angry.








If
only they had been satisfied with what Allah and His Messenger
gave them and said, "Sufficient for us is Allah ; Allah will
give us of His bounty, and [so will] His Messenger; indeed, we
are desirous toward Allah ," [it would have been better for
them].








Zakah
expenditures are only for the poor and for the needy and
for those employed to collect [zakah] and for bringing hearts
together [for Islam] and for freeing captives [or slaves] and
for those in debt and for the cause of Allah and for the
[stranded] traveler - an obligation [imposed] by Allah . And Allah
is Knowing and Wise.








And
among them are those who abuse the Prophet and say, "He is
an ear." Say, "[It is] an ear of goodness for you that
believes in Allah and believes the believers and [is] a mercy to
those who believe among you." And those who abuse the
Messenger of Allah - for them is a painful punishment.








They
swear by Allah to you [Muslims] to satisfy you. But Allah and
His Messenger are more worthy for them to satisfy, if they
should be believers.






Do
they not know that whoever opposes Allah and His Messenger -
that for him is the fire of Hell, wherein he will abide
eternally? That is the great disgrace.








They
hypocrites are apprehensive lest a surah be revealed about
them, informing them of what is in their hearts. Say, "Mock
[as you wish]; indeed, Allah will expose that which you fear."








And
if you ask them, they will surely say, "We were only
conversing and playing." Say, "Is it Allah and His verses and
His Messenger that you were mocking?"








Make
no excuse; you have disbelieved after your belief. If We
pardon one faction of you - We will punish another faction
because they were criminals.








The
hypocrite men and hypocrite women are of one another. They
enjoin what is wrong and forbid what is right and close their
hands. They have forgotten Allah , so He has forgotten them
[accordingly]. Indeed, the hypocrites - it is they who are
the defiantly disobedient.








Allah
has promised the hypocrite men and hypocrite women and the
disbelievers the fire of Hell, wherein they will abide
eternally. It is sufficient for them. And Allah has cursed them,
and for them is an enduring punishment.








[You
disbelievers are] like those before you; they were stronger
than you in power and more abundant in wealth and children.
They enjoyed their portion [of worldly enjoyment], and you have
enjoyed your portion as those before you enjoyed their portion,
and you have engaged [in vanities] like that in which they
engaged. [It is] those whose deeds have become worthless in
this world and in the Hereafter, and it is they who are the
losers.








Has
there not reached them the news of those before them - the
people of Noah and [the tribes of] 'Aad and Thamud and the
people of Abraham and the companions of Madyan and the towns
overturned? Their messengers came to them with clear proofs. And
Allah would never have wronged them, but they were wronging
themselves.








The
believing men and believing women are allies of one another.
They enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong and
establish prayer and give zakah and obey Allah and His
Messenger. Those - Allah will have mercy upon them. Indeed, Allah
is Exalted in Might and Wise.








Allah
has promised the believing men and believing women gardens
beneath which rivers flow, wherein they abide eternally, and
pleasant dwellings in gardens of perpetual residence; but
approval from Allah is greater. It is that which is the great
attainment.








O
Prophet, fight against the disbelievers and the hypocrites and
be harsh upon them. And their refuge is Hell, and wretched
is the destination.








They
swear by Allah that they did not say [anything against the
Prophet] while they had said the word of disbelief and
disbelieved after their [pretense of] Islam and planned that
which they were not to attain. And they were not resentful
except [for the fact] that Allah and His Messenger had enriched
them of His bounty. So if they repent, it is better for them;
but if they turn away, Allah will punish them with a painful
punishment in this world and the Hereafter. And there will not
be for them on earth any protector or helper.








And
among them are those who made a covenant with Allah ,
[saying], "If He should give us from His bounty, we will
surely spend in charity, and we will surely be among the
righteous."






But when he gave them from His bounty, they were stingy with it and turned away while they refused.








So
He penalized them with hypocrisy in their hearts until the
Day they will meet Him - because they failed Allah in what they
promised Him and because they [habitually] used to lie.








Did
they not know that Allah knows their secrets and their private
conversations and that Allah is the Knower of the unseen?








Those
who criticize the contributors among the believers concerning
[their] charities and [criticize] the ones who find nothing [to
spend] except their effort, so they ridicule them - Allah will
ridicule them, and they will have a painful punishment.








Ask
forgiveness for them, [O Muhammad], or do not ask forgiveness
for them. If you should ask forgiveness for them seventy
times - never will Allah forgive them. That is because they
disbelieved in Allah and His Messenger, and Allah does not guide
the defiantly disobedient people.








Those
who remained behind rejoiced in their staying [at home] after
[the departure of] the Messenger of Allah and disliked to
strive with their wealth and their lives in the cause of Allah
and said, 'Do not go forth in the heat." Say, "The fire of
Hell is more intensive in heat" - if they would but
understand.








So let them laugh a little and [then] weep much as recompense for what they used to earn.








If
Allah should return you to a faction of them [after the
expedition] and then they ask your permission to go out [to
battle], say, "You will not go out with me, ever, and you
will never fight with me an enemy. Indeed, you were satisfied
with sitting [at home] the first time, so sit [now] with
those who stay behind."








And
do not pray [the funeral prayer, O Muhammad], over any of
them who has died - ever - or stand at his grave. Indeed,
they disbelieved in Allah and His Messenger and died while they
were defiantly disobedient.








And
let not their wealth and their children impress you. Allah
only intends to punish them through them in this world and
that their souls should depart [at death] while they are
disbelievers.








And
when a surah was revealed [enjoining them] to believe in
Allah and to fight with His Messenger, those of wealth among
them asked your permission [to stay back] and said, "Leave us
to be with them who sit [at home]."








They
were satisfied to be with those who stay behind, and their
hearts were sealed over, so they do not understand.








But
the Messenger and those who believed with him fought with
their wealth and their lives. Those will have [all that is]
good, and it is those who are the successful.








Allah
has prepared for them gardens beneath which rivers flow,
wherein they will abide eternally. That is the great attainment.






And
those with excuses among the bedouins came to be permitted
[to remain], and they who had lied to Allah and His Messenger
sat [at home]. There will strike those who disbelieved among
them a painful punishment.









There
is not upon the weak or upon the ill or upon those who do
not find anything to spend any discomfort when they are
sincere to Allah and His Messenger. There is not upon the doers
of good any cause [for blame]. And Allah is Forgiving and
Merciful.








Nor
[is there blame] upon those who, when they came to you that
you might give them mounts, you said, "I can find nothing
for you to ride upon." They turned back while their eyes
overflowed with tears out of grief that they could not find
something to spend [for the cause of Allah ].








The
cause [for blame] is only upon those who ask permission of
you while they are rich. They are satisfied to be with those
who stay behind, and Allah has sealed over their hearts, so they
do not know.








They
will make excuses to you when you have returned to them.
Say, "Make no excuse - never will we believe you. Allah has
already informed us of your news. And Allah will observe your
deeds, and [so will] His Messenger; then you will be taken
back to the Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, and He
will inform you of what you used to do."








They
will swear by Allah to you when you return to them that you
would leave them alone. So leave them alone; indeed they are
evil; and their refuge is Hell as recompense for what they had
been earning.








They
swear to you so that you might be satisfied with them. But
if you should be satisfied with them - indeed, Allah is not
satisfied with a defiantly disobedient people.








The
bedouins are stronger in disbelief and hypocrisy and more
likely not to know the limits of what [laws] Allah has revealed
to His Messenger. And Allah is Knowing and Wise.








And
among the bedouins are some who consider what they spend as
a loss and await for you turns of misfortune. Upon them will
be a misfortune of evil. And Allah is Hearing and Knowing.








But
among the bedouins are some who believe in Allah and the Last
Day and consider what they spend as means of nearness to
Allah and of [obtaining] invocations of the Messenger.
Unquestionably, it is a means of nearness for them. Allah will
admit them to His mercy. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.








And
the first forerunners [in the faith] among the Muhajireen and
the Ansar and those who followed them with good conduct -
Allah is pleased with them and they are pleased with Him, and
He has prepared for them gardens beneath which rivers flow,
wherein they will abide forever. That is the great attainment.







lAnd
among those around you of the bedouins are hypocrites, and
[also] from the people of Madinah. They have become accustomed
to hypocrisy. You, [O Muhammad], do not know them, [but] We
know them. We will punish them twice [in this world]; then
they will be returned to a great punishment.








And
[there are] others who have acknowledged their sins. They had
mixed a righteous deed with another that was bad. Perhaps
Allah will turn to them in forgiveness. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving
and Merciful.









Take,
[O, Muhammad], from their wealth a charity by which you
purify them and cause them increase, and invoke [ Allah 's
blessings] upon them. Indeed, your invocations are reassurance
for them. And Allah is Hearing and Knowing.








Do
they not know that it is Allah who accepts repentance from
His servants and receives charities and that it is Allah who is
the Accepting of repentance, the Merciful?








And
say, "Do [as you will], for Allah will see your deeds, and
[so, will] His Messenger and the believers. And you will be
returned to the Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, and He
will inform you of what you used to do."








And
[there are] others deferred until the command of Allah -
whether He will punish them or whether He will forgive them.
And Allah is Knowing and Wise.








And
[there are] those [hypocrites] who took for themselves a
mosque for causing harm and disbelief and division among the
believers and as a station for whoever had warred against Allah
and His Messenger before. And they will surely swear, "We
intended only the best." And Allah testifies that indeed they
are liars.








Do
not stand [for prayer] within it - ever. A mosque founded
on righteousness from the first day is more worthy for you to
stand in. Within it are men who love to purify themselves;
and Allah loves those who purify themselves.









Then is one who laid the
foundation of his building on righteousness [with fear] from
Allah and [seeking] His approval better or one who laid the
foundation of his building on the edge of a bank about to
collapse, so it collapsed with him into the fire of Hell? And
Allah does not guide the wrongdoing people.


Their
building which they built will not cease to be a [cause of]
skepticism in their hearts until their hearts are stopped. And
Allah is Knowing and Wise.








Indeed,
Allah has purchased from the believers their lives and their
properties [in exchange] for that they will have Paradise. They
fight in the cause of Allah , so they kill and are killed.
[It is] a true promise [binding] upon Him in the Torah and
the Gospel and the Qur'an. And who is truer to his covenant
than Allah ? So rejoice in your transaction which you have
contracted. And it is that which is the great attainment.







Sahih International[Such
believers are] the repentant, the worshippers, the praisers
[of Allah ], the travelers [for His cause], those who bow and
prostrate [in prayer], those who enjoin what is right and
forbid what is wrong, and those who observe the limits [set
by] Allah . And give good tidings to the believers.








It
is not for the Prophet and those who have believed to ask
forgiveness for the polytheists, even if they were relatives,
after it has become clear to them that they are companions of
Hellfire.








And
the request of forgiveness of Abraham for his father was
only because of a promise he had made to him. But when it
became apparent to Abraham that his father was an enemy to
Allah , he disassociated himself from him. Indeed was Abraham
compassionate and patient.








And
Allah would not let a people stray after He has guided them
until He makes clear to them what they should avoid. Indeed,
Allah is Knowing of all things.








Indeed,
to Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth;
He gives life and causes death. And you have not besides Allah
any protector or any helper.








Allah
has already forgiven the Prophet and the Muhajireen and the
Ansar who followed him in the hour of difficulty after the
hearts of a party of them had almost inclined [to doubt], and
then He forgave them. Indeed, He was to them Kind and
Merciful.








And
[He also forgave] the three who were left behind [and
regretted their error] to the point that the earth closed in
on them in spite of its vastness and their souls confined them
and they were certain that there is no refuge from Allah
except in Him. Then He turned to them so they could repent.
Indeed, Allah is the Accepting of repentance, the Merciful.







Sahih InternationalO you who have believed, fear Allah and be with those who are true.








It
was not [proper] for the people of Madinah and those
surrounding them of the bedouins that they remain behind after
[the departure of] the Messenger of Allah or that they prefer
themselves over his self. That is because they are not
afflicted by thirst or fatigue or hunger in the cause of Allah ,
nor do they tread on any ground that enrages the
disbelievers, nor do they inflict upon an enemy any infliction
but that is registered for them as a righteous deed. Indeed,
Allah does not allow to be lost the reward of the doers of
good.








Nor
do they spend an expenditure, small or large, or cross a
valley but that it is registered for them that Allah may reward
them for the best of what they were doing.








And
it is not for the believers to go forth [to battle] all at
once. For there should separate from every division of them a
group [remaining] to obtain understanding in the religion and
warn their people when they return to them that they might be
cautious.






O
you who have believed, fight those adjacent to you of the
disbelievers and let them find in you harshness. And know that
Allah is with the righteous.








And
whenever a surah is revealed, there are among the hypocrites
those who say, "Which of you has this increased faith?" As
for those who believed, it has increased them in faith, while
they are rejoicing.






But
as for those in whose hearts is disease, it has [only]
increased them in evil [in addition] to their evil. And they
will have died while they are disbelievers.








Do
they not see that they are tried every year once or twice
but then they do not repent nor do they remember?








And
whenever a surah is revealed, they look at each other,
[saying], "Does anyone see you?" and then they dismiss
themselves. Allah has dismissed their hearts because they are a
people who do not understand.








There
has certainly come to you a Messenger from among yourselves.
Grievous to him is what you suffer; [he is] concerned over
you and to the believers is kind and merciful.













But
if they turn away, [O Muhammad], say, "Sufficient for me is
Allah ; there is no deity except Him. On Him I have relied,
and He is the Lord of the Great Throne."
