اَلَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا وَصَدُّوْا عَنْ سَبِیْلِ اللّٰهِ اَضَلَّ اَعْمَالَهُمْ ۟
Those who disbelieve and avert [people] from the way of Allāh - He will waste their deeds.
وَالَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ وَاٰمَنُوْا بِمَا نُزِّلَ عَلٰی مُحَمَّدٍ وَّهُوَ الْحَقُّ مِنْ رَّبِّهِمْ ۙ كَفَّرَ عَنْهُمْ سَیِّاٰتِهِمْ وَاَصْلَحَ بَالَهُمْ ۟
And those who believe and do righteous deeds and believe in what has been sent down upon Muḥammad - and it is the truth from their Lord - He will remove from them their misdeeds and amend their condition.
ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوا اتَّبَعُوا الْبَاطِلَ وَاَنَّ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوا اتَّبَعُوا الْحَقَّ مِنْ رَّبِّهِمْ ؕ كَذٰلِكَ یَضْرِبُ اللّٰهُ لِلنَّاسِ اَمْثَالَهُمْ ۟
That is because those who disbelieve follow falsehood, and those who believe follow the truth from their Lord. Thus does Allāh present to the people their comparisons.
فَاِذَا لَقِیْتُمُ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا فَضَرْبَ الرِّقَابِ ؕ حَتّٰۤی اِذَاۤ اَثْخَنْتُمُوْهُمْ فَشُدُّوا الْوَثَاقَ ۙۗ فَاِمَّا مَنًّا بَعْدُ وَاِمَّا فِدَآءً حَتّٰی تَضَعَ الْحَرْبُ اَوْزَارَهَا ذٰؔلِكَ ۛؕ وَلَوْ یَشَآءُ اللّٰهُ لَانْتَصَرَ مِنْهُمْ ۙ وَلٰكِنْ لِّیَبْلُوَاۡ بَعْضَكُمْ بِبَعْضٍ ؕ وَالَّذِیْنَ قُتِلُوْا فِیْ سَبِیْلِ اللّٰهِ فَلَنْ یُّضِلَّ اَعْمَالَهُمْ ۟
So when you meet those who disbelieve [in battle], strike [their] necks until, when you have inflicted slaughter upon them, then secure [their] bonds, and either [confer] favor afterwards or ransom [them] until the war lays down its burdens. That [is the command]. And if Allāh had willed, He could have taken vengeance upon them [Himself], but [He ordered armed struggle] to test some of you by means of others. And those who are killed in the cause of Allāh - never will He waste their deeds.
سَیَهْدِیْهِمْ وَیُصْلِحُ بَالَهُمْ ۟ۚ
He will guide them and amend their condition
وَیُدْخِلُهُمُ الْجَنَّةَ عَرَّفَهَا لَهُمْ ۟
And admit them to Paradise, which He has made known to them.
یٰۤاَیُّهَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْۤا اِنْ تَنْصُرُوا اللّٰهَ یَنْصُرْكُمْ وَیُثَبِّتْ اَقْدَامَكُمْ ۟
O you who have believed, if you support Allāh, He will support you and plant firmly your feet.
وَالَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا فَتَعْسًا لَّهُمْ وَاَضَلَّ اَعْمَالَهُمْ ۟
But those who disbelieve - for them is misery, and He will waste their deeds.
ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّهُمْ كَرِهُوْا مَاۤ اَنْزَلَ اللّٰهُ فَاَحْبَطَ اَعْمَالَهُمْ ۟
That is because they disliked what Allāh revealed, so He rendered worthless their deeds.
اَفَلَمْ یَسِیْرُوْا فِی الْاَرْضِ فَیَنْظُرُوْا كَیْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الَّذِیْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ ؕ دَمَّرَ اللّٰهُ عَلَیْهِمْ ؗ وَلِلْكٰفِرِیْنَ اَمْثَالُهَا ۟
Have they not traveled through the land and seen how was the end of those before them? Allāh destroyed [everything] over them, and for the disbelievers is something comparable.
ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّ اللّٰهَ مَوْلَی الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَاَنَّ الْكٰفِرِیْنَ لَا مَوْلٰی لَهُمْ ۟۠
That is because Allāh is the protector of those who have believed and because the disbelievers have no protector.
اِنَّ اللّٰهَ یُدْخِلُ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ جَنّٰتٍ تَجْرِیْ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهٰرُ ؕ وَالَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا یَتَمَتَّعُوْنَ وَیَاْكُلُوْنَ كَمَا تَاْكُلُ الْاَنْعَامُ وَالنَّارُ مَثْوًی لَّهُمْ ۟
Indeed, Allāh will admit those who have believed and done righteous deeds to gardens beneath which rivers flow, but those who disbelieve enjoy themselves and eat as grazing livestock eat, and the Fire will be a residence for them.
وَكَاَیِّنْ مِّنْ قَرْیَةٍ هِیَ اَشَدُّ قُوَّةً مِّنْ قَرْیَتِكَ الَّتِیْۤ اَخْرَجَتْكَ ۚ اَهْلَكْنٰهُمْ فَلَا نَاصِرَ لَهُمْ ۟
And how many a city was stronger than your city [i.e., Makkah] which drove you out? We destroyed them; and there was no helper for them.
اَفَمَنْ كَانَ عَلٰی بَیِّنَةٍ مِّنْ رَّبِّهٖ كَمَنْ زُیِّنَ لَهٗ سُوْٓءُ عَمَلِهٖ وَاتَّبَعُوْۤا اَهْوَآءَهُمْ ۟
So is he who is on clear evidence from his Lord like him to whom the evil of his work has been made attractive and they follow their [own] desires?
مَثَلُ الْجَنَّةِ الَّتِیْ وُعِدَ الْمُتَّقُوْنَ ؕ فِیْهَاۤ اَنْهٰرٌ مِّنْ مَّآءٍ غَیْرِ اٰسِنٍ ۚ وَاَنْهٰرٌ مِّنْ لَّبَنٍ لَّمْ یَتَغَیَّرْ طَعْمُهٗ ۚ وَاَنْهٰرٌ مِّنْ خَمْرٍ لَّذَّةٍ لِّلشّٰرِبِیْنَ ۚ۬ وَاَنْهٰرٌ مِّنْ عَسَلٍ مُّصَفًّی ؕ وَلَهُمْ فِیْهَا مِنْ كُلِّ الثَّمَرٰتِ وَمَغْفِرَةٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّهِمْ ؕ كَمَنْ هُوَ خَالِدٌ فِی النَّارِ وَسُقُوْا مَآءً حَمِیْمًا فَقَطَّعَ اَمْعَآءَهُمْ ۟
Is the description of Paradise, which the righteous are promised, wherein are rivers of water unaltered, rivers of milk the taste of which never changes, rivers of wine delicious to those who drink, and rivers of purified honey, in which they will have from all [kinds of] fruits and forgiveness from their Lord... [Are its inhabitants] like those who abide eternally in the Fire and are given to drink scalding water that will sever their intestines?
وَمِنْهُمْ مَّنْ یَّسْتَمِعُ اِلَیْكَ ۚ حَتّٰۤی اِذَا خَرَجُوْا مِنْ عِنْدِكَ قَالُوْا لِلَّذِیْنَ اُوْتُوا الْعِلْمَ مَاذَا قَالَ اٰنِفًا ۫ اُولٰٓىِٕكَ الَّذِیْنَ طَبَعَ اللّٰهُ عَلٰی قُلُوْبِهِمْ وَاتَّبَعُوْۤا اَهْوَآءَهُمْ ۟
And among them, [O Muḥammad], are those who listen to you, until when they depart from you, they say to those who were given knowledge, "What has he said just now?" Those are the ones of whom Allāh has sealed over their hearts and who have followed their [own] desires.
وَالَّذِیْنَ اهْتَدَوْا زَادَهُمْ هُدًی وَّاٰتٰىهُمْ تَقْوٰىهُمْ ۟
And those who are guided - He increases them in guidance and gives them their righteousness.
فَهَلْ یَنْظُرُوْنَ اِلَّا السَّاعَةَ اَنْ تَاْتِیَهُمْ بَغْتَةً ۚ فَقَدْ جَآءَ اَشْرَاطُهَا ۚ فَاَنّٰی لَهُمْ اِذَا جَآءَتْهُمْ ذِكْرٰىهُمْ ۟
Then do they await except that the Hour should come upon them unexpectedly? But already there have come [some of] its indications. Then how [i.e., what good] to them, when it has come, will be their remembrance?
فَاعْلَمْ اَنَّهٗ لَاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا اللّٰهُ وَاسْتَغْفِرْ لِذَنْۢبِكَ وَلِلْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ وَالْمُؤْمِنٰتِ ؕ وَاللّٰهُ یَعْلَمُ مُتَقَلَّبَكُمْ وَمَثْوٰىكُمْ ۟۠
So know, [O Muḥammad], that there is no deity except Allāh and ask forgiveness for your sin and for the believing men and believing women. And Allāh knows of your movement and your resting place.
وَیَقُوْلُ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا لَوْلَا نُزِّلَتْ سُوْرَةٌ ۚ فَاِذَاۤ اُنْزِلَتْ سُوْرَةٌ مُّحْكَمَةٌ وَّذُكِرَ فِیْهَا الْقِتَالُ ۙ رَاَیْتَ الَّذِیْنَ فِیْ قُلُوْبِهِمْ مَّرَضٌ یَّنْظُرُوْنَ اِلَیْكَ نَظَرَ الْمَغْشِیِّ عَلَیْهِ مِنَ الْمَوْتِ ؕ فَاَوْلٰى لَهُمْ ۟ۚ
Those who believe say, "Why has a sūrah not been sent down?" But when a precise sūrah is revealed and battle is mentioned therein, you see those in whose hearts is disease [i.e., hypocrisy] looking at you with a look of one overcome by death. And more appropriate for them [would have been]
طَاعَةٌ وَّقَوْلٌ مَّعْرُوْفٌ ۫ فَاِذَا عَزَمَ الْاَمْرُ ۫ فَلَوْ صَدَقُوا اللّٰهَ لَكَانَ خَیْرًا لَّهُمْ ۟ۚ
Obedience and good words. And when the matter [of fighting] was determined, if they had been true to Allāh, it would have been better for them.
فَهَلْ عَسَیْتُمْ اِنْ تَوَلَّیْتُمْ اَنْ تُفْسِدُوْا فِی الْاَرْضِ وَتُقَطِّعُوْۤا اَرْحَامَكُمْ ۟
So would you perhaps, if you turned away, cause corruption on earth and sever your [ties of] relationship?
اُولٰٓىِٕكَ الَّذِیْنَ لَعَنَهُمُ اللّٰهُ فَاَصَمَّهُمْ وَاَعْمٰۤی اَبْصَارَهُمْ ۟
Those [who do so] are the ones that Allāh has cursed, so He deafened them and blinded their vision.
اَفَلَا یَتَدَبَّرُوْنَ الْقُرْاٰنَ اَمْ عَلٰی قُلُوْبٍ اَقْفَالُهَا ۟
Then do they not reflect upon the Qur’ān, or are there locks upon [their] hearts?
اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ ارْتَدُّوْا عَلٰۤی اَدْبَارِهِمْ مِّنْ بَعْدِ مَا تَبَیَّنَ لَهُمُ الْهُدَی ۙ الشَّیْطٰنُ سَوَّلَ لَهُمْ ؕ وَاَمْلٰی لَهُمْ ۟
Indeed, those who reverted back [to disbelief] after guidance had become clear to them - Satan enticed them and prolonged hope for them.
ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّهُمْ قَالُوْا لِلَّذِیْنَ كَرِهُوْا مَا نَزَّلَ اللّٰهُ سَنُطِیْعُكُمْ فِیْ بَعْضِ الْاَمْرِ ۖۚ وَاللّٰهُ یَعْلَمُ اِسْرَارَهُمْ ۟
That is because they said to those who disliked what Allāh sent down, "We will obey you in part of the matter." And Allāh knows what they conceal.
فَكَیْفَ اِذَا تَوَفَّتْهُمُ الْمَلٰٓىِٕكَةُ یَضْرِبُوْنَ وُجُوْهَهُمْ وَاَدْبَارَهُمْ ۟
Then how [will it be] when the angels take them in death, striking their faces and their backs?
ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّهُمُ اتَّبَعُوْا مَاۤ اَسْخَطَ اللّٰهَ وَكَرِهُوْا رِضْوَانَهٗ فَاَحْبَطَ اَعْمَالَهُمْ ۟۠
That is because they followed what angered Allāh and disliked [what earns] His pleasure, so He rendered worthless their deeds.
اَمْ حَسِبَ الَّذِیْنَ فِیْ قُلُوْبِهِمْ مَّرَضٌ اَنْ لَّنْ یُّخْرِجَ اللّٰهُ اَضْغَانَهُمْ ۟
Or do those in whose hearts is disease think that Allāh would never expose their [feelings of] hatred?
وَلَوْ نَشَآءُ لَاَرَیْنٰكَهُمْ فَلَعَرَفْتَهُمْ بِسِیْمٰهُمْ ؕ وَلَتَعْرِفَنَّهُمْ فِیْ لَحْنِ الْقَوْلِ ؕ وَاللّٰهُ یَعْلَمُ اَعْمَالَكُمْ ۟
And if We willed, We could show them to you, and you would know them by their mark; but you will surely know them by the tone of [their] speech. And Allāh knows your deeds.
وَلَنَبْلُوَنَّكُمْ حَتّٰی نَعْلَمَ الْمُجٰهِدِیْنَ مِنْكُمْ وَالصّٰبِرِیْنَ ۙ وَنَبْلُوَاۡ اَخْبَارَكُمْ ۟
And We will surely test you until We make evident those who strive among you [for the cause of Allāh] and the patient, and We will test your affairs.
اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا وَصَدُّوْا عَنْ سَبِیْلِ اللّٰهِ وَشَآقُّوا الرَّسُوْلَ مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا تَبَیَّنَ لَهُمُ الْهُدٰی ۙ لَنْ یَّضُرُّوا اللّٰهَ شَیْـًٔا ؕ وَسَیُحْبِطُ اَعْمَالَهُمْ ۟
Indeed, those who disbelieved and averted [people] from the path of Allāh and opposed the Messenger after guidance had become clear to them - never will they harm Allāh at all, and He will render worthless their deeds.
یٰۤاَیُّهَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْۤا اَطِیْعُوا اللّٰهَ وَاَطِیْعُوا الرَّسُوْلَ وَلَا تُبْطِلُوْۤا اَعْمَالَكُمْ ۟
O you who have believed, obey Allāh and obey the Messenger and do not invalidate your deeds.
اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا وَصَدُّوْا عَنْ سَبِیْلِ اللّٰهِ ثُمَّ مَاتُوْا وَهُمْ كُفَّارٌ فَلَنْ یَّغْفِرَ اللّٰهُ لَهُمْ ۟
Indeed, those who disbelieved and averted [people] from the path of Allāh and then died while they were disbelievers - never will Allāh forgive them.
فَلَا تَهِنُوْا وَتَدْعُوْۤا اِلَی السَّلْمِ ۖۗ وَاَنْتُمُ الْاَعْلَوْنَ ۖۗ وَاللّٰهُ مَعَكُمْ وَلَنْ یَّتِرَكُمْ اَعْمَالَكُمْ ۟
So do not weaken and call for peace while you are superior; and Allāh is with you and will never deprive you of [the reward of] your deeds.
اِنَّمَا الْحَیٰوةُ الدُّنْیَا لَعِبٌ وَّلَهْوٌ ؕ وَاِنْ تُؤْمِنُوْا وَتَتَّقُوْا یُؤْتِكُمْ اُجُوْرَكُمْ وَلَا یَسْـَٔلْكُمْ اَمْوَالَكُمْ ۟
[This] worldly life is only amusement and diversion. And if you believe and fear Allāh, He will give you your rewards and not ask you for your properties.
اِنْ یَّسْـَٔلْكُمُوْهَا فَیُحْفِكُمْ تَبْخَلُوْا وَیُخْرِجْ اَضْغَانَكُمْ ۟
If He should ask you for them and press you, you would withhold, and He would expose your hatred [i.e., unwillingness].
هٰۤاَنْتُمْ هٰۤؤُلَآءِ تُدْعَوْنَ لِتُنْفِقُوْا فِیْ سَبِیْلِ اللّٰهِ ۚ فَمِنْكُمْ مَّنْ یَّبْخَلُ ۚ وَمَنْ یَّبْخَلْ فَاِنَّمَا یَبْخَلُ عَنْ نَّفْسِهٖ ؕ وَاللّٰهُ الْغَنِیُّ وَاَنْتُمُ الْفُقَرَآءُ ۚ وَاِنْ تَتَوَلَّوْا یَسْتَبْدِلْ قَوْمًا غَیْرَكُمْ ۙ ثُمَّ لَا یَكُوْنُوْۤا اَمْثَالَكُمْ ۟۠
Here you are - those invited to spend in the cause of Allāh - but among you are those who withhold [out of greed]. And whoever withholds only withholds [benefit] from himself; and Allāh is the Free of need, while you are the needy. And if you turn away [i.e., refuse], He will replace you with another people; then they will not be the likes of you.
