Those who pledge obedience to you are, in fact, pledging obedience to God. The hands of God are above their hands. As for those who disregard their pledge, they do so only against their own souls. Those who fulfill their promise to God will receive a great reward

11

Ayah 11

Sayaqoolu laka almukhallafoona mina alaAArabi shaghalatna amwaluna waahloona faistaghfir lana yaqooloona bialsinatihim ma laysa fee quloobihim qul faman yamliku lakum mina Allahi shayan in arada bikum darran aw arada bikum nafAAan bal kana Allahu bima taAAmaloona khabeeran

The bedouins who lag behind in taking part in the battle say to you, "Ask forgiveness for us; we were busy with our property and household." They speak what is not in their hearts. (Muhammad), tell them, "Who will help you against God, if He intends to harm you, who will prevent Him from benefitting you? In fact, God is Well Aware of whatever you do

12

Ayah 12

Bal thanantum an lan yanqaliba alrrasoolu waalmuminoona ila ahleehim abadan wazuyyina thalika fee quloobikum wathanantum thanna alssawi wakuntum qawman booran

Bal Žanantum 'An Lan Yanqaliba Ar-Rasūlu Wa Al-Mu'uminūna 'Ilá 'Ahlīhim 'Abadāan Wa Zuyyina Dhālika Fī Qulūbikum Wa Žanantum Žanna As-Saw'i Wa Kuntum Qawmāan Būrāan

Wa Lillahi Mulku As-Samāwāti Wa Al-'Arđi Yaghfiru Liman Yashā'u Wa Yu`adhibu Man Yashā'u Wa Kāna Allāhu Ghafūrāan Raĥīmāan

Sayaqūlu Al-Mukhallafūna 'Idhā Anţalaqtum 'Ilá Maghānima Lita'khudhūhā Dharūnā Nattabi`kum Yurīdūna 'An Yubaddilū Kalāma Allāhi Qul Lan Tattabi`ūnā Kadhālikum Qāla Allāhu Min Qablu Fasayaqūlūna Bal Taĥsudūnanā Bal Kānū Lā Yafqahūna 'Illā Qalīlāan

The laggardly Bedouins will say, "When you leave to collect the spoils, let us follow you." They want to alter the command of God (that only the participating believers are entitled to such benefit). Tell them, "You can never follow us for such a purpose. God has said before and He will say again (what type of people you are). In fact, you are jealous of us." The truth is that they understand very little

16

Ayah 16

Qul lilmukhallafeena mina alaAArabi satudAAawna ila qawmin olee basin shadeedin tuqatiloonahum aw yuslimoona fain tuteeAAoo yutikumu Allahu ajran hasanan wain tatawallaw kama tawallaytum min qablu yuAAaththibkum AAathaban aleeman

Qul Lilmukhallafīna Mina Al-'A`rābi Satud`awna 'Ilá Qawmin 'Ūlī Ba'sin Shadīdin Tuqātilūnahum 'Aw Yuslimūna Fa'in Tuţī`ū Yu'utikumu Allāhu 'Ajrāan Ĥasanāan Wa 'In Tatawallaw Kamā Tawallaytum Min Qablu Yu`adhibkum `Adhābāan 'Alīmāan

Tell the laggardly Bedouins, "You will be called to face strong people whom you will fight right to the end or who will submit to you. If you obey the Messenger, God will give you a good reward. But if you turn away as you did before, God will make you suffer a painful torment

17

Ayah 17

Laysa AAala alaAAma harajun wala AAala alaAAraji harajun wala AAala almareedi harajun waman yutiAAi Allaha warasoolahu yudkhilhu jannatin tajree min tahtiha alanharu waman yatawalla yuAAaththibhu AAathaban aleeman

It is not an offense for the blind, the lame, or the sick not to take part in the battle. Whoever obeys God and His Messenger will be admitted to the gardens wherein streams flow. God will make whoever turns away suffer a painful torment

18

Ayah 18

God is pleased with the believers for their pledging obedience to you under the tree. He knew whatever was in their hearts, thus, He granted them confidence and rewarded them with an immediate victory

Wa Maghānima Kathīratan Ya'khudhūnahā Wa Kāna Allāhu `Azīzāan Ĥakīmāan

and the booty which they received from it (the Battle). God is Majestic and All-wise

20

WaAAadakumu Allahu maghanima katheeratan takhuthoonaha faAAajjala lakum hathihi wakaffa aydiya alnnasi AAankum walitakoona ayatan lilmumineena wayahdiyakum siratan mustaqeeman

Wa`adakumu Allāhu Maghānima Kathīratan Ta'khudhūnahā Fa`ajjala Lakum Hadhihi Wa Kaffa 'Aydiya An-Nāsi `Ankum Wa Litakūna 'Āyatan Lilmu'uminīna Wa Yahdiyakum Şirāţāan Mustaqīmāan

God has promised that you will receive much booty. He has enabled you to receive this at this time and has protected you from enemies to make it an evidence (of the Truth) for the believers. He will guide you to the right path

21

Ayah 21

Waokhra lam taqdiroo AAalayha qad ahata Allahu biha wakana Allahu AAala kulli shayin qadeeran

Wa 'Ukhrá Lam Taqdirū `Alayhā Qad 'Aĥāţa Allāhu Bihā Wa Kāna Allāhu `Alá Kulli Shay'in Qadīrāan

Besides these, there were other gains which you could not receive, but God has full control over them. God has power over all things

22

Ayah 22

Walaw qatalakumu allatheena kafaroo lawallawoo aladbara thumma la yajidoona waliyyan wala naseeran

Wa Law Qātalakumu Al-Ladhīna Kafarū Lawallaw Al-'Adbāra Thumma Lā Yajidūna Walīyāan Wa Lā Naşīrāan

Had the disbelievers fought against you, they would have run away from the battle and would have found no guardian or helper

23

Ayah 23

Sunnata Allahi allatee qad khalat min qablu walan tajida lisunnati Allahi tabdeelan

Sunnata Allāhi Allatī Qad Khalat Min Qablu Wa Lan Tajida Lisunnati Allāhi Tabdīlāan

This is the tradition of God which existed before, and you will never find any change in His tradition

Humu allatheena kafaroo wasaddookum AAani almasjidi alharami waalhadya maAAkoofan an yablugha mahillahu walawla rijalun muminoona wanisaon muminatun lam taAAlamoohum an tataoohum fatuseebakum minhum maAAarratun bighayri AAilmin liyudkhila Allahu fee rahmatihi man yashao law tazayyaloo laAAaththabna allatheena kafaroo minhum AAathaban aleeman

It was the disbelievers who kept you from the Sacred Mosque and prevented your sacrificial offering from reaching its proper place. God would not have kept you from fighting the disbelievers, had there not been believing men and women (among them) whom you did not know and whom you might have unknowingly harmed. God did this because He grants mercy to whomever He wants. Had they been distinguishable from the believers, We would certainly have punished them with a painful torment

26

Ayah 26

Ith jaAAala allatheena kafaroo fee quloobihimu alhamiyyata hamiyyata aljahiliyyati faanzala Allahu sakeenatahu AAala rasoolihi waAAala almumineena waalzamahum kalimata alttaqwa wakanoo ahaqqa biha waahlaha wakana Allahu bikulli shayin AAaleeman

Idh Ja`ala Al-Ladhīna Kafarū Fī Qulūbihimu Al-Ĥamīyata Ĥamīyata Al-Jāhilīyati Fa'anzala Allāhu Sakīnatahu `Alá Rasūlihi Wa `Alá Al-Mu'uminīna Wa 'Alzamahum Kalimata At-Taqwá Wa Kānū 'Aĥaqqa Bihā Wa 'Ahlahā Wa Kāna Allāhu Bikulli Shay'in `Alīmāan

Since the disbelievers held zealous ignorance in their hearts, like that of the pre-Islamic age of darkness, God gave confidence to His Messenger and to the believers, binding them to the principle of piety which they deserve. God has the knowledge of all things

27

Ayah 27

Laqad sadaqa Allahu rasoolahu alrruya bialhaqqi latadkhulunna almasjida alharama in shaa Allahu amineena muhalliqeena ruoosakum wamuqassireena la takhafoona faAAalima ma lam taAAlamoo fajaAAala min dooni thalika fathan qareeban

Laqad Şadaqa Allāhu Rasūlahu Ar-Ru'uyā Bil-Ĥaqqi Latadkhulunna Al-Masjida Al-Ĥarāma 'In Shā'a Allāhu 'Āminīna Muĥalliqīna Ru'ūsakum Wa Muqaşşirīna Lā Takhāfūna Fa`alima Mā Lam Ta`lamū Faja`ala Min Dūni Dhālika Fatĥāan Qarībāan

God made the dream of His Messenger come true for a genuine purpose. (In this he was told), "If God wills You (believers) will enter the Sacred Mosque, in security, with your heads shaved, nails cut, and without any fear in your hearts." He knew what you did not know. Besides this victory, He will give you another immediate victory

28

Ayah 28

Huwa allathee arsala rasoolahu bialhuda wadeeni alhaqqi liyuthhirahu AAala alddeeni kullihi wakafa biAllahi shaheedan

Huwa Al-Ladhī 'Arsala Rasūlahu Bil-Hudá Wa Dīni Al-Ĥaqqi Liyužhirahu `Alá Ad-Dīni Kullihi Wa Kafá Billāhi Shahīdāan

It is He who has sent His Messenger with guidance and the true religion to make it prevail over all other religions. God is a Sufficient witness to this Truth

Muĥammadun Rasūlu Allāhi Wa Al-Ladhīna Ma`ahu 'Ashiddā'u `Alá Al-Kuffāri Ruĥamā'u Baynahum Tarāhum Rukka`āan Sujjadāan Yabtaghūna Fađlāan Mina Allāhi Wa Riđwānāan Sīmāhum Fī Wujūhihim Min 'Athari As-Sujūdi Dhālika Mathaluhum Fī At-Tawrāati Wa Mathaluhum Fī Al-'Injīli Kazar`in 'Akhraja Shaţ'ahu Fa'āzarahu Fāstaghlaža Fāstawá `Alá Sūqihi Yu`jibu Az-Zurrā`a Liyaghīža Bihimu Al-Kuffāra Wa`ada Allāhu Al-Ladhīna 'Āmanū Wa `Amilū Aş-Şāliĥāti Minhum Maghfiratan Wa 'Ajrāan `Ažīmāan

Muhammad is the Messenger of God and those with him are stern to the disbelievers yet kind among themselves. You can see them bowing and prostrating before God, seeking His favors and pleasure. Their faces (foreheads) are marked due to the effect of their frequent prostrations. That is their description in the Torah and in the Gospel they are mentioned as the seed which shoots out its stalk then becomes stronger, harder and stands firm on its stumps, attracting the farmers. Thus, God has described the believers to enrage the disbelievers. God has promised forgiveness and a great reward to the righteously striving believers
