Among them are men who molest the Prophet
and say "He is (all)
ear." Say "He listens to what is best for you: he believes
in Allah, has faith in the Believers and is a Mercy to those of you
who believe." But those who molest the Messenger will have a
grievous penalty. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
62. |
To you they swear by Allah. In order
to please you: but it is more fitting that they should please Allah
and His Messenger, if they are Believers. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
63. |
Know they not that for those who oppose
Allah and His Messenger, is the Fire of Hell?--wherein they shall
dwell. That is the supreme disgrace. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
64. |
The Hypocrites are afraid lest a Surah
should be sent down about them, showing them what is (really
passing) in their hearts. Say:
"Mock you! But verily Allah will bring to light all that you
fear (should be revealed)." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
65. |
If you do question them, they declare
(with emphasis):
"We were only talking idly and in play." Say: "Was
it at Allah, and His Signs, and His Messenger, that you were mocking?" |
|
|
|
|
|
| 66. |
Make you no excuses: you have rejected
Faith after you had accepted it. If We pardon some of you, we will
punish others amongst you, for that they are in sin. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
67. |
The Hypocrites, men and women,
(have an understanding)
with each other: they enjoin evil, and forbid what is just, and are
close with their hands. They have forgotten Allah; so He has forgotten
them. Verily the Hypocrites are rebellious and perverse. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
68. |
Allah has promised the Hypocrites,
men and women, and the rejecters, of Faith the fire of Hell: therein
shall they dwell: sufficient is it for them: for them is the curse
of Allah, and an enduring punishment-- |
|
|
|
|
|
| 69. |
As in the case of those before you:
they were mightier than you in power and more flourishing in wealth
and children. They had their enjoyment of their portion: and you have
of yours, as did those before you; and you indulge in idle talk as
they did. They!--their works are fruitless in this world and in the
Hereafter, and they will lose
(all spiritual good). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 70. |
Has not the story reached them of those
before them?--The people of Noah, and Ad, and Thamud; the people of
Abraham, the men of Madian, and the Cities overthrown. To them came
their messengers with Clear Signs. It is not Allah Who wrongs them,
but they wrong their own souls. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
71. |
The Believers, men and women, are protectors,
one of another: they enjoin what is just, and forbid what is evil:
they observe regular prayers, practice regular charity, and obey Allah
and His Messenger. On them will Allah pour His Mercy: for Allah is
Exalted in power, Wise. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
72. |
Allah has promised to Believers--men
and women--Gardens under which rivers flow, to dwell therein, and
beautiful mansions in Gardens of everlasting bliss. But the greatest
bliss is the Good Pleasure of Allah: that is the supreme felicity. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 73. |
O Prophet! strive hard against the
Unbelievers and the Hypocrites, and be firm against them. Their abode
is Hell--an evil refuge indeed. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
74. |
They swear by Allah that they said
nothing (evil),
but indeed they uttered blasphemy, and they did it after accepting
Islam; and they meditated a plot which they were enable to carry out:
this revenge of theirs was
(their) only return for the
bounty with which Allah and His Messenger had enriched them! If they
repent, it will be best for them; but if they turn back (to
their evil ways), Allah will
punish them with a grievous penalty in this life and in the Hereafter:
they shall have none on earth to protect or help them. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
75. |
Amongst them are men who made a Covenant
with Allah, that if He bestowed on them of His bounty, they would
give (largely)
in charity, and be truly amongst those who are righteous. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 76. |
But when He did bestow of His bounty,
they became Covetous and turned back (from
their Covenant), averse (from
its fulfillment). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 77. |
So He has put as a consequence hypocrisy
into their hearts, (to last)
till the Day whereon they shall meet Him: because they broke their
Covenant with Allah, and because they lied (again
and again). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
78. |
Know they not that Allah does know
their secret (thoughts)
and their secret counsels, and that Allah knows well all things unseen? |
|
|
|
|
|
| 79. |
Those who slander such of the Believers
as give themselves freely to
(deeds of) charity, as well
as such as can find nothing to give except the fruits of their labor--and
throw ridicule on them--Allah will throw back their ridicule on them:
and they shall have a grievous penalty. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 80. |
Whether you ask for their forgiveness,
or not, (their sin is unforgivable):
if you ask seventy times for their forgiveness, Allah will not forgive
them: because they have rejected Allah and His Messenger; and Allah
guides not those who are perversely rebellious. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
81. |
Those who were left behind
(in the Tabuk expedition)
rejoiced in their inaction behind the back of the Messenger of Allah:
they hated to strive and fight, with their goods and their persons,
in the Cause of Allah: they said, "Go not forth in the heat.”
Say, "The fire of Hell is fiercer in heat." If only they
could understand! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
82. |
Let them laugh a little: much will
they weep: a recompense for the
(evil) that they do. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 83. |
If, then, Allah bring you back to any
of them, and they ask your permission to come out (with
you), say: "Never shall
you come out with me, nor fight an enemy with me: for you preferred
to sit inactive on the first occasion: then sit you (now)
with those who lag behind." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
84. |
Nor do you ever pray for any of them
that dies, nor stand at his grave: for they rejected Allah and His
Messenger, and died in a state of perverse rebellion. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
85. |
Nor let their wealth nor their
(following in)
sons dazzle you: Allah's Plan
is to punish them with these things in this world, and that their
souls may perish in their (very)
denial of Allah. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
86. |
When a Surah comes down, enjoining
them to believe in Allah and to strive and fight along with His Messenger,
those with wealth and influence among them ask you for exemption,
and say: "Leave us (behind):
we would be with those who sit
(at home)." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
87. |
They prefer to be with (the
women), who remain behind (at
home): their hearts are sealed
and so they understand not. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
88. |
But the Messenger, and those who believe
with him, strive and fight with their wealth, and their persons: for
them are (all)
good things: and it is they who will prosper. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
89. |
Allah has prepared for them Gardens
under which rivers flow, to dwell therein: that is the supreme felicity. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 90. |
And there were, among the desert Arabs,
(also)
men who made excuses and came to claim exemption; and those who were
false to Allah and His Messenger (merely)
sat inactive. Soon will a grievous penalty seize the Unbelievers among
them. |
