They ask you concerning (things
taken as) spoils of war. Say:
"(Such)
spoils are at the disposal of Allah and the Messenger: so fear Allah,
and keep straight the relations between yourselves: obey Allah and
His Messenger, if you do believe." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 2. |
For, Believers are those who, when
Allah is mentioned, feel a tremor in their hearts, and when they hear
His Signs rehearsed, find their faith strengthened, and put
(all)
their trust in their Lord; |
|
|
|
|
|
| 3. |
Who establish regular prayers and spend
(freely)
out of the gifts We have given them for sustenance: |
|
|
|
|
|
| 4. |
Such in truth are the Believers: they
have grades of dignity with their Lord, and forgiveness, and generous
sustenance: |
|
|
|
|
|
| 5. |
Just as your Lord ordered you out of
your house in truth, even though a party among the Believers disliked
it, |
|
|
|
|
|
| 6. |
Disputing with you concerning the truth
after it was made manifest, as if they were being driven to death
and they (actually)
saw it. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
7. |
Behold! Allah promised you one of the
two (enemy)
parties, that it should be yours: you wished that the one unarmed
should be yours, but Allah willed to justify the Truth according to
His words, and to cut off the roots of the Unbelievers-- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
8. |
That He might justify Truth and prove
Falsehood false, distasteful though it be to those in guilt. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 9. |
Remember you implored the assistance
of your Lord, and He answered you: "I will assist you with a
thousand of the angels, ranks on ranks." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 10. |
Allah made it but a message of hope,
and an assurance to your heart:
(in any case)
there is no help except from Allah: and Allah is Exalted in Power,
Wise. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
11. |
Remember He covered you with a sort
of drowsiness, to give you calm as from Himself, and He caused rain
to descend on you from heaven, to clean you therewith, to remove from
you the stain of Satan, to strengthen your hearts, and to plant your
feet firmly therewith. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 12. |
Remember your Lord inspired the angels
(with the message):
"I am with you: give firmness to the Believers: I will instill
terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers: smite you above their necks
and smite all their finger-tips off them." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 13. |
This because they contended against
Allah and His Messenger: if any contend against Allah and His Messenger,
Allah is strict in punishment. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
14. |
Thus (will
it be said): "Taste you
then of the (punishment):
for those who resist Allah, is the penalty of the fire." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
15. |
O you who believe! When you meet the
Unbelievers in hostile array, never turn your backs to them. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 16. |
If any do turn his back to them on
such a day--unless it be in a stratagem of war, or to retreat to a
troop (of his own)--he
draws on himself the wrath of Allah, and his abode is Hell--and evil
refuge (indeed)! |
|
|
|
|
|
| 17. |
It is not you who slew them; it was
Allah: when you threw (a handful
of dust), it was not your act,
but Allah's: in order that He might test the Believers by a gracious
trial from Himself: for Allah is He Who hears and knows (all
things). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 18. |
That, and also because Allah is He
Who makes feeble the Plans and stratagems of the Unbelievers. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 19. |
(O unbelievers!)
if you prayed for victory and judgment, now has the judgment come
to you: if you desist (from
wrong), it will be best for
you: if you return (to the
attack), so shall We. Not the
least good will your forces be to you even if they were multiplied:
for verily Allah is with those who believe! |
|
|
|
|
|
| 20. |
O you who believe! obey Allah and His
Messenger, and turn not away from him when you hear (him
speak). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
21. |
Nor be like those who say, "we
hear," but listen not: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
22. |
For the worst of beasts in the sight
of Allah are the deaf and the dumb--those who understand not. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 23. |
If Allah had found in them any good,
He would indeed have made them listen: (as
it is), if He had made them
listen, they would but have turned back and declined (faith). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
24. |
O you who believe! give your response
to Allah and His Messenger, when He calls you to that which will give
you life; and know that Allah comes in between a human and his heart,
and that it is He to Whom you shall (all)
be gathered. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
25. |
And fear tumult or oppression, which
affects not in particular (only)
those of you who do wrong: and know that Allah is strict in punishment. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
26. |
Call to mind when you were a small
(band),
despised through the land, and afraid that men might despoil and kidnap
you; but He provided a safe asylum for you, strengthened you with
His aid, and gave you good things for sustenance: that you might be
grateful. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
27. |
O you that believe! betray not the
trust of Allah and the Messenger, nor misappropriate knowingly things
entrusted to you. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 28. |
And know you that your possessions
and your progeny are but a trial; and that it is Allah with whom lies
your highest reward. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
29. |
O you who believe! if you fear Allah,
He will grant you a Criterion
(to judge between right and wrong),
remove from you (all)
evil (that may afflict),
you and forgive you: for Allah is the Lord of grace unbounded. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 30. |
Remember how the Unbelievers plotted
against you, to keep you in bonds, or slay you, or get you out
(of your home).
They plot and plan, and Allah too plans, but the best of planners
is Allah. |
