There is no blame on those who are
weak or ill or who find no resources to spend [in
holy fighting (Jihad)], if they
are sincere and true (in duty) to Allah and His Messenger. No ground (of
complaint) can there be against
the Muhsinun (good-doers). And
Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 92. |
Nor (is
there blame) on those who came
to you to be provided with mounts, and when you said: "I can
find no mounts for you," they turned back, while their eyes overflowing
with tears of grief that they could not find anything to spend (for
Jihad). |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 93. |
The ground (of
complaint) is only against those
who are rich, and yet ask exemption. They are content to be with (the
women) who sit behind (at
home) and Allah has sealed up
their hearts (from all kinds
of goodness and right guidance) so that they know not (what
they are losing). |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 94. |
They (the
hypocrites) will present their
excuses to you (Muslims),
when you return to them. Say [O
Muhammad (Peace be upon him)] "Present
no excuses, we shall not believe you. Allah has already informed us
of the news concerning you. Allah and His Messenger will observe your
deeds. In the end you will be brought back to the All-Knower of the
unseen and the seen, then He (Allah) will inform you of what
you used to do." [Tafsir
At-Tabari] |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 95. |
They will swear by Allah to you (Muslims) when you return to them, that you may turn away from them. So turn
away from them. Surely, they are Rijsun [i.e.
Najasun (impure) because of their evil deeds],
and Hell is their dwelling place, - a recompense for that which they
used to earn. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 96. |
They (the
hypocrites) swear to you (Muslims) that you may be pleased with them, but if you are pleased with them,
certainly Allah is not pleased with the people who are Al-Fasiqun (rebellious, disobedient to
Allah). |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 97. |
The bedouins are the worst in disbelief
and hypocrisy, and more likely to be in ignorance of the limits (Allah's Commandments and His Legal
Laws, etc.) which Allah has
revealed to His Messenger. And Allah is All-Knower, All-Wise. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 98. |
And of the bedouins there are some
who look upon what they spend (in
Allah's Cause) as a fine and
watch for calamities for you, on them be the calamity of evil. And
Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 99. |
And of the bedouins there are some
who believe in Allah and the Last Day, and look upon what they spend
in Allah's Cause as approaches to Allah, and a cause of receiving
the Messenger's invocations. Indeed these (spendings
in Allah's Cause) are an approach
for them. Allah will admit them to His Mercy. Certainly Allah is Oft-Forgiving,
Most Merciful. |
| |
|
| |
|
|

And the first to embrace Islam of the
Muhajirun (those who migrated
from Makkah to Al-Madinah) and
the Ansar (the citizens ofAl-Madinah) who helped and gave aid to the Muhajirun) and also those who followed them exactly (in
Faith). Allah is well-pleased
with them as they are well-pleased with Him. He has prepared for them
Gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise),
to dwell therein forever. That is the supreme success. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 101. |
And among the bedouins round about
you, some are hypocrites, and so are some among the people of Al-Madinah,
they exaggerate and persist in hypocrisy, you [Muhammad (Peace be upon him)] know them not,
We know them. We shall punish them twice, and thereafter they shall
be brought back to a great (horrible) torment. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 102. |
And (there
are) others who have acknowledged
their sins, they have mixed a deed that was righteous with another
that was evil. Perhaps Allah will turn unto them in forgiveness. Surely,
Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 103. |
Take Sadaqah (alms) from their wealth in order to purify them and sanctify them with it,
and invoke Allah for them. Verily! Your invocations are a source of
security for them, and Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 104. |
Know they not that Allah accepts repentance
from His slaves and takes the Sadaqat (alms,
charities) and that Allah Alone
is the One Who forgives and accepts repentance, Most Merciful? |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 105. |
And say [O
Muhammad (Peace be upon him)] "Do deeds!
Allah will see your deeds, and (so
will) His Messenger and the
believers. And you will be brought back to the All-Knower of the unseen
and the seen. Then He will inform you of what you used to do." |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 106. |
And others await Allah's Decree, whether
He will punish them or will forgive them. And Allah is All-Knowing,
All-Wise. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 107. |
And as for those who put up a mosque
by way of harming and disbelief, and to disunite the believers, and
as an outpost for those who warred against Allah and His Messenger
[O
Muhammad (Peace be upon him)] aforetime, they will indeed swear that their intention
is nothing but good. Allah bears witness that they are certainly liars. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 108. |
Never stand you therein. Verily, the
mosque whose foundation was laid from the first day on piety is more
worthy that you stand therein (to pray). In it are men who
love to clean and to purify themselves. And Allah loves those who
make themselves clean and pure (i.e.
who clean their private parts with dust [i.e. to be considered as
soap) and water from urine and
stools, after answering the call of nature]. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 109. |
Is it then he, who laid the foundation
of his building on piety to Allah and His Good Pleasure, better, or
he who laid the foundation of his building on an undetermined brink
of a precipice ready to crumble down, so that it crumbled to pieces
with him into the Fire of Hell. And Allah guides not the people who
are the Zalimun (cruel, violent,
proud, polytheist and wrong-doer). |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 110. |
The building which they built will
never cease to be a cause of hypocrisy and doubt in their hearts,
unless their hearts are cut to pieces. (i.e.
till they die). And Allah is
All-Knowing, All-Wise. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 111. |
Verily, Allah has purchased of the
believers their lives and their properties; for the price that theirs
shall be the Paradise. They fight in Allah's Cause, so they kill (others) and are killed. It is a promise in truth which is binding on Him in
the Taurat (Torah) and the Injil (Gospel) and the Qur-an. And who is truer to his covenant than Allah? Then
rejoice in the bargain which you have concluded. That is the supreme
success. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 112. |
(The believers whose lives Allah has
purchased are) those who repent
to Allah (from polytheism and
hypocrisy, etc.), who worship
Him, who praise Him, who fast (or go out in Allah's Cause),
who bow down (in prayer), who prostrate themselves (in prayer), who enjoin (people) for Al-Ma'ruf (i.e. Islamic
Monotheism and all what Islam has ordained) and forbid (people) from Al-Munkar (i.e. disbelief,
polytheism of all kinds and all that Islam has forbidden),
and who observe the limits set by Allah (do
all that Allah has ordained and abstain from all kinds of sins and
evil deeds which Allah has forbidden).
And give glad tidings to the believers. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 113. |
It is not (proper) for the Prophet and those who believe to ask Allah's Forgiveness for
the Mushrikun (polytheists,
idolaters, pagans, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah) even though they be of kin, after it has become clear to them that
they are the dwellers of the Fire (because
they died in a state of disbelief). |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 114. |
And [Ibrahim's
(Abraham)] invoking (of
Allah) for his father's forgiveness
was only because of a promise he [Ibrahim (Abraham)] had made to him (his
father). But when it became
clear to him
[Ibrahim (Abraham)] that he (his father) is an enemy to Allah, he
dissociated himself from him. Verily Ibrahim (Abraham) was Al-Awwah (has fifteen different
meanings but the correct one seems to be that he used to invoke Allah
with humility, glorify Him and remember Him much),
and was forbearing. (Tafsir
Al-Qurtubi). |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 115. |
And Allah will never lead a people
astray after He has guided them until He makes clear to them as to
what they should avoid. Verily, Allah is the All-Knower of everything. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 116. |
Verily, Allah! Unto Him belongs the
dominion of the heavens and the earth, He gives life and He causes
death. And besides Allah you have neither any Wali (protector
or guardian) nor any helper. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 117. |
Allah has forgiven the Prophet (Peace be upon him),
the Muhajirun (Muslim emigrants
who left their homes and came to Al-Madinah) and the Ansar (Muslims of Al-Madinah) who followed him [Muhammad (Peace be upon him)] in the time
of distress (Tabuk expedition,
etc.), after the hearts of a
party of them had nearly deviated (from
the Right Path), but He accepted
their repentance. Certainly, He is unto them full of Kindness, Most
Merciful. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 118. |
And (He
did forgive also) the three [who did not join the Tabuk
expedition [whom the Prophet (Peace be upon him)] left (i.e. he did not give his
judgement in their case, and their case was suspended for Allah's
Decision) till for them the
earth, vast as it is, was straitened and their ownselves were straitened
to them, and they perceived that there is no fleeing from Allah, and
no refuge but with Him. Then, He accepted their repentance, that they
might repent (unto Him).
Verily, Allah is the One Who accepts repentance, Most Merciful. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 119. |
O you who believe! Be afraid of Allah,
and be with those who are true (in words and deeds). |
| |
|
| |
|
|
| 120. |
It was not becoming of the people of
Al-Madinah and the bedouins of the neighbourhood to remain behind
Allah's Messenger [Muhammad
(Peace be upon him) when fighting in Allah's Cause] and (it was not becoming of
them) to prefer their own lives
to his life. That is because they suffer neither thirst nor fatigue,
nor hunger in the Cause of Allah, nor they take any step to raise
the anger of disbelievers nor inflict any injury upon an enemy but
is written to their credit as a deed of righteousness. Surely, Allah
wastes not the reward of the Muhsinun |
