بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful.
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
یٰۤاَیُّهَا النَّبِیُّ اتَّقِ اللّٰهَ وَ لَا تُطِعِ الْكٰفِرِیْنَ وَ الْمُنٰفِقِیْنَؕ-اِنَّ اللّٰهَ كَانَ عَلِیْمًا حَكِیْمًاۙ(۱)
O PROPHET FEAR God and do not follow the unbelievers and the hypocrites.
O Prophet, fear God, and obey not the unbelievers and the hypocrites. God is All-knowing, All-wise.
وَّ اتَّبِـعْ مَا یُوْحٰۤى اِلَیْكَ مِنْ رَّبِّكَؕ-اِنَّ اللّٰهَ كَانَ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ خَبِیْرًاۙ(۲)
Follow what is revealed to you by your Lord. Verily God is all-knowing and all-wise.
And follow what is revealed to thee from thy Lord; surely God is aware of the things you do.
وَّ تَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللّٰهِؕ-وَ كَفٰى بِاللّٰهِ وَكِیْلًا(۳)
Trust in God. God is sufficient as guardian.
And put thy trust in God; God suffices as a guardian.
مَا جَعَلَ اللّٰهُ لِرَجُلٍ مِّنْ قَلْبَیْنِ فِیْ جَوْفِهٖۚ-وَ مَا جَعَلَ اَزْوَاجَكُمُ الّٰٓـِٔیْ تُظٰهِرُوْنَ مِنْهُنَّ اُمَّهٰتِكُمْۚ-وَ مَا جَعَلَ اَدْعِیَآءَكُمْ اَبْنَآءَكُمْؕ-ذٰلِكُمْ قَوْلُكُمْ بِاَفْوَاهِكُمْؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ یَقُوْلُ الْحَقَّ وَ هُوَ یَهْدِی السَّبِیْلَ(۴)
God has not provided two hearts in the breast of a man, nor made your wives, whom you pronounce "mothers" (in order to divorce them), your real mothers, nor has He made your adopted sons your real sons. This is only what your lips pronounce. God says what is just, and shows the right way.
God has not assigned to any man two hearts within his breast; nor has He made your wives, when you divorce, saying, 'Be as my mother's back,' truly your mothers, neither has He made your adopted sons your sons in fact. That is your own saying, the words of your mouths; but God speaks the truth, and guides on the way.
اُدْعُوْهُمْ لِاٰبَآىٕهِمْ هُوَ اَقْسَطُ عِنْدَ اللّٰهِۚ-فَاِنْ لَّمْ تَعْلَمُوْۤا اٰبَآءَهُمْ فَاِخْوَانُكُمْ فِی الدِّیْنِ وَ مَوَالِیْكُمْؕ-وَ لَیْسَ عَلَیْكُمْ جُنَاحٌ فِیْمَاۤ اَخْطَاْتُمْ بِهٖۙ-وَ لٰكِنْ مَّا تَعَمَّدَتْ قُلُوْبُكُمْؕ-وَ كَانَ اللّٰهُ غَفُوْرًا رَّحِیْمًا(۵)
Call them by the names of their fathers. This is the right course in the sight of God. If you do not know their fathers, they are then your brothers in religion and your friends. It will not be a sin if you make a mistake, unless you do so intentionally; for God is forgiving and kind.
Call them after their true fathers; that is more equitable in the sight of God. If you know not who their fathers were, then they are your brothers in religion, and your clients. There is no fault in you if you make mistakes, but only in what your hearts premeditate. God is All-forgiving, All-compassionate.
اَلنَّبِیُّ اَوْلٰى بِالْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ مِنْ اَنْفُسِهِمْ وَ اَزْوَاجُهٗۤ اُمَّهٰتُهُمْؕ-وَ اُولُوا الْاَرْحَامِ بَعْضُهُمْ اَوْلٰى بِبَعْضٍ فِیْ كِتٰبِ اللّٰهِ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ وَ الْمُهٰجِرِیْنَ اِلَّاۤ اَنْ تَفْعَلُوْۤا اِلٰۤى اَوْلِیٰٓىٕكُمْ مَّعْرُوْفًاؕ-كَانَ ذٰلِكَ فِی الْكِتٰبِ مَسْطُوْرًا(۶)
The Prophet is closer to the faithful than they are themselves; and his wives are as their mothers. Yet blood relations are closer to one another according to God´s decree, more than (other) believers and the emigrants (who left their homes in the cause of God), but you should be kind to your friends. This is inscribed in the Book (of decrees).
The Prophet is nearer to the believers than their selves; his wives are their mothers. Those who are bound by blood are nearer to one another in the Book of God than the believers and the emigrants; nevertheless you should act towards your friends honourably; that stands inscribed in the Book.
وَ اِذْ اَخَذْنَا مِنَ النَّبِیّٖنَ مِیْثَاقَهُمْ وَ مِنْكَ وَ مِنْ نُّوْحٍ وَّ اِبْرٰهِیْمَ وَ مُوْسٰى وَ عِیْسَى ابْنِ مَرْیَمَ۪-وَ اَخَذْنَا مِنْهُمْ مِّیْثَاقًا غَلِیْظًاۙ(۷)
When We made the covenant with the prophets, and with you, as with Noah and Abraham, Moses and Jesus son of Mary, a binding covenant,
And when We took compact from the Prophets, and from thee, and from Noah, and Abraham, Moses, and Jesus, Mary's son; We took from them a solemn compact,
لِّیَسْــٴَـلَ الصّٰدِقِیْنَ عَنْ صِدْقِهِمْۚ-وَ اَعَدَّ لِلْكٰفِرِیْنَ عَذَابًا اَلِیْمًا۠(۸)
(It was) so that God may ask the truthful of their sincerity. As for the infidels, He has prepared a painful punishment for them.
that He might question the truthful concerning their truthfulness; and He has prepared for the unbelievers a painful chastisement.
یٰۤاَیُّهَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوا اذْكُرُوْا نِعْمَةَ اللّٰهِ عَلَیْكُمْ اِذْ جَآءَتْكُمْ جُنُوْدٌ فَاَرْسَلْنَا عَلَیْهِمْ رِیْحًا وَّ جُنُوْدًا لَّمْ تَرَوْهَاؕ-وَ كَانَ اللّٰهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ بَصِیْرًاۚ(۹)
O you who believe, remember the favours of God to you when an army came against you and We sent a wind against them and forces that you did not see. But God sees all that you do.
O believers, remember God's blessing upon you when hosts came against you, and We loosed against them a wind, and hosts you saw not; and God sees the things you do.
اِذْ جَآءُوْكُمْ مِّنْ فَوْقِكُمْ وَ مِنْ اَسْفَلَ مِنْكُمْ وَ اِذْ زَاغَتِ الْاَبْصَارُ وَ بَلَغَتِ الْقُلُوْبُ الْحَنَاجِرَ وَ تَظُنُّوْنَ بِاللّٰهِ الظُّنُوْنَا ؕ (۱۰)
When they came upon you from above and below you, when the eyes were stupefied with horror, and hearts jumped to the throats, and you made wild suppositions about God.
When they came against you from above you and from below you, and when your eyes swerved and your hearts reached your throats, while you thought thoughts about God;
هُنَالِكَ ابْتُلِیَ الْمُؤْمِنُوْنَ وَ زُلْزِلُوْا زِلْزَالًا شَدِیْدًا(۱۱)
The faithful were sorely tried there and were shaken completely,
there it was that the believers were tried, and shaken most mightily.
وَ اِذْ یَقُوْلُ الْمُنٰفِقُوْنَ وَ الَّذِیْنَ فِیْ قُلُوْبِهِمْ مَّرَضٌ مَّا وَعَدَنَا اللّٰهُ وَ رَسُوْلُهٗۤ اِلَّا غُرُوْرًا(۱۲)
When the hypocrites and those who were filled with doubt, said: "The promise of God and His Apostle was nothing but deceit."
And when tile hypocrites, and those in whose hearts is sickness, said, 'God and His Messenger promised us only delusion.'
وَ اِذْ قَالَتْ طَّآىٕفَةٌ مِّنْهُمْ یٰۤاَهْلَ یَثْرِبَ لَا مُقَامَ لَكُمْ فَارْجِعُوْاۚ-وَ یَسْتَاْذِنُ فَرِیْقٌ مِّنْهُمُ النَّبِیَّ یَقُوْلُوْنَ اِنَّ بُیُوْتَنَا عَوْرَةٌ ﳍ وَ مَا هِیَ بِعَوْرَةٍۚۛ-اِنْ یُّرِیْدُوْنَ اِلَّا فِرَارًا(۱۳)
When a section of them said: "O people of Yathrib, there is no place for you here, turn back;" and a section of them asked leave of the Prophet, saying: "Our homes lie exposed," -- while they were not exposed. Their only intention was to run away.
And when a party of them said, 'O people of Yathrib, there is no abiding here for you, therefore return!' And a part of them Were asking leave of the Prophet, saying, 'Our houses are exposed'; yet they were not exposed; they desired only to flee.
وَ لَوْ دُخِلَتْ عَلَیْهِمْ مِّنْ اَقْطَارِهَا ثُمَّ سُىٕلُوا الْفِتْنَةَ لَاٰتَوْهَا وَ مَا تَلَبَّثُوْا بِهَاۤ اِلَّا یَسِیْرًا(۱۴)
If the (enemy) had entered the city from every side and asked them to rise in revolt, they would have done so, and not hesitated but a little;
And if entrance had been forced against them from those quarters, and then they had been asked to apostatise, they would have done so, and but tarried about it briefly.
وَ لَقَدْ كَانُوْا عَاهَدُوا اللّٰهَ مِنْ قَبْلُ لَا یُوَلُّوْنَ الْاَدْبَارَؕ-وَ كَانَ عَهْدُ اللّٰهِ مَّسْــٴُـوْلًا (۱۵)
Whereas earlier they had made a promise to God that they would never turn their backs; and a promise made to God is answerable.
Yet they had made covenant with God before that, that they would not turn their backs; and covenants with God shall be questioned of
قُلْ لَّنْ یَّنْفَعَكُمُ الْفِرَارُ اِنْ فَرَرْتُمْ مِّنَ الْمَوْتِ اَوِ الْقَتْلِ وَ اِذًا لَّا تُمَتَّعُوْنَ اِلَّا قَلِیْلًا(۱۶)
Say: "Of no gain will be your running away if you run from death or being killed, even then you will enjoy the good things of life but only for a while."
Say: 'Flight will not profit you, if you flee from death or slaying; you will be given enjoyment of days then but little.'
قُلْ مَنْ ذَا الَّذِیْ یَعْصِمُكُمْ مِّنَ اللّٰهِ اِنْ اَرَادَ بِكُمْ سُوْٓءًا اَوْ اَرَادَ بِكُمْ رَحْمَةًؕ-وَ لَا یَجِدُوْنَ لَهُمْ مِّنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ وَلِیًّا وَّ لَا نَصِیْرًا(۱۷)
Say: "Who will save you from God if He decide to afflict you or show you His mercy?" They will never find a friend or helper apart from God.
Say: 'Who is he that shall defend you from God, if lie desires evil for you, or desires mercy for you?' They shall find for themselves, apart from God, neither protector nor helper.
قَدْ یَعْلَمُ اللّٰهُ الْمُعَوِّقِیْنَ مِنْكُمْ وَ الْقَآىٕلِیْنَ لِاِخْوَانِهِمْ هَلُمَّ اِلَیْنَاۚ-وَ لَا یَاْتُوْنَ الْبَاْسَ اِلَّا قَلِیْلًاۙ(۱۸)
Surely God knows who among you obstruct, and those who say to their brethren: "Come to us," and go to battle but seldom,
God would surely know those of you who hinder, and those who say to their brothers, 'Come to us,' and come to battle but little,
اَشِحَّةً عَلَیْكُمْ ۚۖ-فَاِذَا جَآءَ الْخَوْفُ رَاَیْتَهُمْ یَنْظُرُوْنَ اِلَیْكَ تَدُوْرُ اَعْیُنُهُمْ كَالَّذِیْ یُغْشٰى عَلَیْهِ مِنَ الْمَوْتِۚ-فَاِذَا ذَهَبَ الْخَوْفُ سَلَقُوْكُمْ بِاَلْسِنَةٍ حِدَادٍ اَشِحَّةً عَلَى الْخَیْرِؕ-اُولٰٓىٕكَ لَمْ یُؤْمِنُوْا فَاَحْبَطَ اللّٰهُ اَعْمَالَهُمْؕ-وَ كَانَ ذٰلِكَ عَلَى اللّٰهِ یَسِیْرًا(۱۹)
Being chary of helping you. But when danger appears you will find them looking at you with eyes turning like a man´s in the swoon of death. Yet when the danger is past they lash you with sharp tongues, covetous of the best (of booty). Such as these have not come to belief. So God nullifies whatever they have done. This is how (the innate law of) God works inevitably.
being niggardly towards you. When fear comes upon them, thou seest them looking at thee, their eyes rolling like one who swoons of death; but when the fear departs, they flay you with sharp tongues, being niggardly to possess the good things. Those have never believed; God has made their works to fail; and that is easy for God.
یَحْسَبُوْنَ الْاَحْزَابَ لَمْ یَذْهَبُوْاۚ-وَ اِنْ یَّاْتِ الْاَحْزَابُ یَوَدُّوْا لَوْ اَنَّهُمْ بَادُوْنَ فِی الْاَعْرَابِ یَسْاَلُوْنَ عَنْ اَنْۢبَآىٕكُمْؕ-وَ لَوْ كَانُوْا فِیْكُمْ مَّا قٰتَلُوْۤا اِلَّا قَلِیْلًا۠(۲۰)
They think the allied tribes have not withdrawn; and if the allied tribes had advanced they would have wished that they were rather with the Arabs of the desert asking news of you; and had they been among you they would have fought but just a little.
They think the Confederates have not departed; and if the Confederates come, they will wish that they were desert-dwellers among the Bedoums asking for news of you. If they were among you, they would fight but little.
لَقَدْ كَانَ لَكُمْ فِیْ رَسُوْلِ اللّٰهِ اُسْوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ لِّمَنْ كَانَ یَرْجُوا اللّٰهَ وَ الْیَوْمَ الْاٰخِرَ وَ ذَكَرَ اللّٰهَ كَثِیْرًاؕ(۲۱)
You have indeed a noble paradigm in the Apostle of God for him who fears God and the Day of Resurrection, and remembers God frequently.
You have had a good example in God's Messenger for whosoever hopes for God and the Last Day, and remembers God oft.
وَ لَمَّا رَاَ الْمُؤْمِنُوْنَ الْاَحْزَابَۙ-قَالُوْا هٰذَا مَا وَعَدَنَا اللّٰهُ وَ رَسُوْلُهٗ وَ صَدَقَ اللّٰهُ وَ رَسُوْلُهٗ٘-وَ مَا زَادَهُمْ اِلَّاۤ اِیْمَانًا وَّ تَسْلِیْمًاؕ(۲۲)
When the faithful saw (the armies of) the allied tribes, they said: "This is what God and His Apostle had promised us; and God and His Apostle say the truth;" and this enhanced their faith and obedience.
When the believers saw the Confederates they said, 'This is what God and His Messenger promised us, and God and His Messenger have spoken truly.' And it only increased them in faith and surrender.
مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ رِجَالٌ صَدَقُوْا مَا عَاهَدُوا اللّٰهَ عَلَیْهِۚ-فَمِنْهُمْ مَّنْ قَضٰى نَحْبَهٗ وَ مِنْهُمْ مَّنْ یَّنْتَظِرُ ﳲ وَ مَا بَدَّلُوْا تَبْدِیْلًاۙ(۲۳)
There are men among the faithful who have been true to the covenant they had made with God; and some of them fulfilled their vows (by dying in His cause), and some still wait (prepared for death), and stand firm,
Among the believers are men who were true to their covenant with God; some of them have fulfilled their vow by death, and some are still awaiting, and they have not changed in the least;
لِّیَجْزِیَ اللّٰهُ الصّٰدِقِیْنَ بِصِدْقِهِمْ وَ یُعَذِّبَ الْمُنٰفِقِیْنَ اِنْ شَآءَ اَوْ یَتُوْبَ عَلَیْهِمْؕ-اِنَّ اللّٰهَ كَانَ غَفُوْرًا رَّحِیْمًاۚ(۲۴)
That God may recompense the truthful for their truthfulness, and punish the hypocrites or relent towards them, as He will. God is surely forgiving and kind.
that God may recompense the truthful ones for their truthfulness, and chastise the hypocrites, if He will, or turn again unto them. Surely God is All-forgiving, All-compassionate.
وَ رَدَّ اللّٰهُ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا بِغَیْظِهِمْ لَمْ یَنَالُوْا خَیْرًاؕ-وَ كَفَى اللّٰهُ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ الْقِتَالَؕ-وَ كَانَ اللّٰهُ قَوِیًّا عَزِیْزًاۚ(۲۵)
God drove the unbelievers back in their fury, and they gained no advantage. God was sufficient (to help) the believers in the battle. God is all-powerful and all-mighty.
And God sent back those that were unbelievers in their rage, and they attained no good; God spared the believers of fighting. Surely God is All-strong, All-mighty.
وَ اَنْزَلَ الَّذِیْنَ ظَاهَرُوْهُمْ مِّنْ اَهْلِ الْكِتٰبِ مِنْ صَیَاصِیْهِمْ وَ قَذَفَ فِیْ قُلُوْبِهِمُ الرُّعْبَ فَرِیْقًا تَقْتُلُوْنَ وَ تَاْسِرُوْنَ فَرِیْقًاۚ(۲۶)
He made those of the people of the Book who had helped (the tribes) descend from their forts, and filled their hearts with dread, so that you killed some and made many captive;
And He brought down those of the People of the Book who supported them from their fortresses and cast terror in their hearts; some you slew, some you made captive.
وَ اَوْرَثَكُمْ اَرْضَهُمْ وَ دِیَارَهُمْ وَ اَمْوَالَهُمْ وَ اَرْضًا لَّمْ تَـطَــٴُـوْهَاؕ-وَ كَانَ اللّٰهُ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَیْءٍ قَدِیْرًا۠(۲۷)
And He made you inherit their lands and mansions and wealth, and a country you had not traversed before, for God has power over everything.
And He bequeathed upon you their lands, their habitations, and their possessions, and a land you never trod. God is powerful over everything.
یٰۤاَیُّهَا النَّبِیُّ قُلْ لِّاَزْوَاجِكَ اِنْ كُنْتُنَّ تُرِدْنَ الْحَیٰوةَ الدُّنْیَا وَ زِیْنَتَهَا فَتَعَالَیْنَ اُمَتِّعْكُنَّ وَ اُسَرِّحْكُنَّ سَرَاحًا جَمِیْلًا(۲۸)
O Prophet, say to your wives: "In case you desire the life and pomp of this world, come, I will provide you handsomely, and let you go with a grace.
O Prophet, say to thy wives: 'If you desire the present life and its adornment, come now, I will make you provision, and set you free with kindliness.
وَ اِنْ كُنْتُنَّ تُرِدْنَ اللّٰهَ وَ رَسُوْلَهٗ وَ الدَّارَ الْاٰخِرَةَ فَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ اَعَدَّ لِلْمُحْسِنٰتِ مِنْكُنَّ اَجْرًا عَظِیْمًا(۲۹)
But if you desire God, His Apostle, and the joys of life to come, then God has verily set apart for those of you who are good, a great reward."
But if you desire God and His Messenger and the Last Abode, surely God has prepared for those amongst you such as do good a mighty wage.
یٰنِسَآءَ النَّبِیِّ مَنْ یَّاْتِ مِنْكُنَّ بِفَاحِشَةٍ مُّبَیِّنَةٍ یُّضٰعَفْ لَهَا الْعَذَابُ ضِعْفَیْنِؕ-وَ كَانَ ذٰلِكَ عَلَى اللّٰهِ یَسِیْرًا(۳۰)
O wives of the Prophet, whosoever of you commits an act of clear shamelessness, her punishment will be doubled. This is how (the innate law of) God works inevitably.
Wives of the Prophet, whosoever among you commits a flagrant indecency, for her the chastisement shall be doubled; that is easy for God.
وَ مَنْ یَّقْنُتْ مِنْكُنَّ لِلّٰهِ وَ رَسُوْلِهٖ وَ تَعْمَلْ صَالِحًا نُّؤْتِهَاۤ اَجْرَهَا مَرَّتَیْنِۙ-وَ اَعْتَدْنَا لَهَا رِزْقًا كَرِیْمًا(۳۱)
But whoever of you is obedient to God and His Apostle, and does the right, will be given a two-fold reward by Us; and We have a rich provision in readiness for her.
But whosoever of you is obedient to God and His Messenger, and does righteousness, We shall pay her her wage twice over; We have prepared for her a generous provision.
یٰنِسَآءَ النَّبِیِّ لَسْتُنَّ كَاَحَدٍ مِّنَ النِّسَآءِ اِنِ اتَّقَیْتُنَّ فَلَا تَخْضَعْنَ بِالْقَوْلِ فَیَطْمَعَ الَّذِیْ فِیْ قَلْبِهٖ مَرَضٌ وَّ قُلْنَ قَوْلًا مَّعْرُوْفًاۚ(۳۲)
O wives of the Prophet, you are not like other women. If you are mindful of God, do not be too obliging in your speech, lest some one sick of heart should covet your person; so say only customary things.
Wives of the Prophet, you are not as other women. If you are godfearing, be not abject in your speech, so that he in whose heart is sickness may be lustful; but speak honourable words.
وَ قَرْنَ فِیْ بُیُوْتِكُنَّ وَ لَا تَبَرَّجْنَ تَبَرُّجَ الْجَاهِلِیَّةِ الْاُوْلٰى وَ اَقِمْنَ الصَّلٰوةَ وَ اٰتِیْنَ الزَّكٰوةَ وَ اَطِعْنَ اللّٰهَ وَ رَسُوْلَهٗؕ-اِنَّمَا یُرِیْدُ اللّٰهُ لِیُذْهِبَ عَنْكُمُ الرِّجْسَ اَهْلَ الْبَیْتِ وَ یُطَهِّرَكُمْ تَطْهِیْرًاۚ(۳۳)
Stay at home, and do not deck yourselves with ostentation as in the days of paganism; fulfil your devotional obligations, pay the zakat, and obey God and His Apostle. God desires to remove impurities from you, O inmates of this house, and to cleanse and bring out the best in you.
Remain in your houses; and display not your finery, as did the pagans of old. And perform the prayer, and pay the alms, and obey God and His Messenger. People of the House, God only desires to put away from you abomination and to cleanse you.
وَ اذْكُرْنَ مَا یُتْلٰى فِیْ بُیُوْتِكُنَّ مِنْ اٰیٰتِ اللّٰهِ وَ الْحِكْمَةِؕ-اِنَّ اللّٰهَ كَانَ لَطِیْفًا خَبِیْرًا۠(۳۴)
Remember God´s revelations and the wisdom that are recited in your homes. God is indeed all perceiving, well-informed.
And remember that which is recited in your houses of the signs of God and the Wisdom; God is All-subtle, All-aware.
اِنَّ الْمُسْلِمِیْنَ وَ الْمُسْلِمٰتِ وَ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ وَ الْمُؤْمِنٰتِ وَ الْقٰنِتِیْنَ وَ الْقٰنِتٰتِ وَ الصّٰدِقِیْنَ وَ الصّٰدِقٰتِ وَ الصّٰبِرِیْنَ وَ الصّٰبِرٰتِ وَ الْخٰشِعِیْنَ وَ الْخٰشِعٰتِ وَ الْمُتَصَدِّقِیْنَ وَ الْمُتَصَدِّقٰتِ وَ الصَّآىٕمِیْنَ وَ الصّٰٓىٕمٰتِ وَ الْحٰفِظِیْنَ فُرُوْجَهُمْ وَ الْحٰفِظٰتِ وَ الذّٰكِرِیْنَ اللّٰهَ كَثِیْرًا وَّ الذّٰكِرٰتِۙ-اَعَدَّ اللّٰهُ لَهُمْ مَّغْفِرَةً وَّ اَجْرًا عَظِیْمًا(۳۵)
Verily men and women who have come to submission, men and women who are believers, men and women who are devout, truthful men and truthful women, men and women with endurance, men and women who are modest, men and women who give alms, men and women who observe fasting, men and women who guard their private parts, and those men and women who remember God a great deal, for them God has forgiveness and a great reward.
Men and women who have surrendered, believing men and believing women, obedient men and obedient women, truthful men and truthful women, enduring men and enduring women, humble men and humble women, men and women who give in charity, men who fast and women who fast, men and women who guard their private parts, men and women who remember God oft -- for them God has prepared forgiveness and a mighty wage.
وَ مَا كَانَ لِمُؤْمِنٍ وَّ لَا مُؤْمِنَةٍ اِذَا قَضَى اللّٰهُ وَ رَسُوْلُهٗۤ اَمْرًا اَنْ یَّكُوْنَ لَهُمُ الْخِیَرَةُ مِنْ اَمْرِهِمْؕ-وَ مَنْ یَّعْصِ اللّٰهَ وَ رَسُوْلَهٗ فَقَدْ ضَلَّ ضَلٰلًا مُّبِیْنًاؕ(۳۶)
No believing men and women have any choice in a matter after God and His Apostle have decided it. Whoever disobeys God and His Apostle has clearly lost the way and gone astray.
It is not for any believer, man or woman, when God and His Messenger have decreed a matter, to have the choice in the affair. Whosoever disobeys God and His Messenger has gone astray into manifest error.
وَ اِذْ تَقُوْلُ لِلَّذِیْۤ اَنْعَمَ اللّٰهُ عَلَیْهِ وَ اَنْعَمْتَ عَلَیْهِ اَمْسِكْ عَلَیْكَ زَوْجَكَ وَ اتَّقِ اللّٰهَ وَ تُخْفِیْ فِیْ نَفْسِكَ مَا اللّٰهُ مُبْدِیْهِ وَ تَخْشَى النَّاسَۚ-وَ اللّٰهُ اَحَقُّ اَنْ تَخْشٰىهُؕ-فَلَمَّا قَضٰى زَیْدٌ مِّنْهَا وَطَرًا زَوَّجْنٰكَهَا لِكَیْ لَا یَكُوْنَ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ حَرَجٌ فِیْۤ اَزْوَاجِ اَدْعِیَآىٕهِمْ اِذَا قَضَوْا مِنْهُنَّ وَطَرًاؕ-وَ كَانَ اَمْرُ اللّٰهِ مَفْعُوْلًا(۳۷)
When you said to him who had been favoured by God and was favoured by you: "Keep your wife to yourself and fear God," you were hiding something God was about to bring to light, for you had fear of men, though you should fear God more. And when Zaid was through with her, We gave her to you in marriage, so that it may not remain a sin for the faithful (to marry) the wives of their adopted sons when they are through with them. God´s command is to be fulfilled.
When thou saidst to him whom God had blessed and thou hadst favoured, 'Keep thy wife to thyself, and fear God,' and thou wast concealing within thyself what God should reveal, fearing other men; and God has better right for thee to fear Him. So when Zaid had accomplished what he would of her, then We gave her in marriage to thee, so that there should not be any fault in the believers, touching the wives of their adopted sons, when they have accomplished what they would of them; and God's commandment must be performed.
مَا كَانَ عَلَى النَّبِیِّ مِنْ حَرَجٍ فِیْمَا فَرَضَ اللّٰهُ لَهٗؕ-سُنَّةَ اللّٰهِ فِی الَّذِیْنَ خَلَوْا مِنْ قَبْلُؕ-وَ كَانَ اَمْرُ اللّٰهِ قَدَرًا مَّقْدُوْرَاﰳ٘ۙ (۳۸)
There is no constraint on the Prophet in what God has decreed for him. This has been the way of God with (apostles) who have gone before you, and God´s command is a determined act.
There is no fault in the Prophet, touching what God has ordained for him -- God's wont with those who passed away before; and God's commandment is doom decreed;
الَّذِیْنَ یُبَلِّغُوْنَ رِسٰلٰتِ اللّٰهِ وَ یَخْشَوْنَهٗ وَ لَا یَخْشَوْنَ اَحَدًا اِلَّا اللّٰهَؕ-وَ كَفٰى بِاللّٰهِ حَسِیْبًا(۳۹)
(For) those who convey the messages of God, and fear Him and no one else, God is sufficient to keep account.
who were delivering the Messages of God, and were fearing Him, and fearing not any one except Him; and God suffices as a reckoner.
مَا كَانَ مُحَمَّدٌ اَبَاۤ اَحَدٍ مِّنْ رِّجَالِكُمْ وَ لٰكِنْ رَّسُوْلَ اللّٰهِ وَ خَاتَمَ النَّبِیّٖنَؕ-وَ كَانَ اللّٰهُ بِكُلِّ شَیْءٍ عَلِیْمًا۠(۴۰)
Muhammad is not the father of any man among you, but a messenger of God, and the seal of the prophets. God has knowledge of everything.
Muhammad is not the father of any one of your men, but the Messenger of God, and the Seal of the Prophets; God has knowledge of everything.
