49. Surah Al-Hujurat (TheDwellings)


In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

 

1. O you who believe! Be not forward in the presence of Allah and His messenger, and keep your duty to Allah. Lo! Allah is Hearer, Knower.
2. O you who believe! Lift not up your voices above the voice of the Prophet, nor shout when speaking to him as you shout one to another, lest your works be rendered vain while you perceive not.
3. Lo! they who subdue their voices in the presence of the messenger of Allah, those are they whose hearts Allah has proven unto righteousness. Theirs will be forgiveness and immense reward.
4. Lo! those who call you from behind the private apartment, most of them have no sense.
5. And if they had patience till you camest forth unto them, it had been better for them. And Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
6. O you who believe! If an evil liver bring you tidings, verify it, lest you smite some folk in ignorance and afterward repent of what you did.
7. And know that the messenger of Allah is among you. If he were to obey you in much of the government, you would surely be in trouble; but Allah has endeared the faith to you and has beautified it in your hearts, and has made disbelief and lewdness and rebellion hateful unto you. Such are they who are rightly guided.
8. (It is) a bounty and a grace from Allah; and Allah is Knower, Wise.
9. And if two parties of believers fall to fighting, then make peace between them. And if one party of them does wrong to the other, fight you that which does wrong till it return unto the ordinance of Allah; then, if it return, make peace between them justly, and act equitably. Lo! Allah loves the equitable.
10. The believers are naught else than brothers. Therefore make peace between your brethren and observe your duty to Allah that haply {by chance} you may obtain mercy.
11. O you who believe! Let not a folk deride a folk who may be better than they (are), nor let women (deride) women who may be better than they are; neither defame one another, nor insult one another by nicknames. Bad is the name of lewdness after faith. And whoso turns not in repentance, such are evil-doers.
12. O you who believe! Shun much suspicion; for lo! some suspicion is a crime. And spy not, neither backbite one another. Would one of you love to eat the flesh of his dead brother? You abhor that (so abhor the other)! And keep your duty (to Allah). Lo! Allah is Relenting, Merciful.
13. O humankind! Lo! We have created you male and female, and have made you nations and tribes that you may know one another. Lo! the noblest of you, in the sight of Allah, is the best in conduct. Lo! Allah is Knower {Al-'Alim}, Aware {Al-Khabir}.
14. The wandering Arabs say: We believe. Say (unto them, O Muhammad): You believe not, but rather say "We submit," for the faith has not yet entered into your hearts. Yet, if you obey Allah and His messenger, He will not withhold from you aught of (the reward of) your deeds. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
15. The (true) believers are those only who believe in Allah and His messenger and afterward doubt not, but strive with their wealth and their lives for the cause of Allah. Such are the sincere.
16. Say (unto them, O Muhammad): Would you teach Allah your religion, when Allah knows all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth, and Allah is Aware of all things?
17. They make it favor unto you (Muhammad) that they have surrendered (unto Him). Say: Deem not your Surrender a favor unto me; nay, but Allah does confer a favor on you, inasmuch as He has led you to the Faith, if you are earnest.
18. Lo! Allah knows the Unseen of the heavens and the earth. And Allah is Seer of what you do.
