Allatheena kafaroo wasaddoo AAan sabeeli Allahi adalla aAAmalahum
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم الذين كفروا وصدوا عن سبيل الله أضل أعمالهم
Those who reject Allah and hinder (men) from the Path of Allah, - their deeds will Allah render astray (from their mark).
Waallatheena amanoo waAAamiloo alssalihati waamanoo bima nuzzila AAala muhammadin wahuwa alhaqqu min rabbihim kaffara AAanhum sayyiatihim waaslaha balahum

Thalika bianna allatheena kafaroo ittabaAAoo albatila waanna allatheena amanoo ittabaAAoo alhaqqa min rabbihim kathalika yadribu Allahu lilnnasi amthalahum
ذلك بأن الذين كفروا اتبعوا الباطل وأن الذين آمنوا اتبعوا الحق من ربهم ۚ كذلك يضرب الله للناس أمثالهم
This because those who reject Allah follow vanities, while those who believe follow the Truth from their Lord: Thus does Allah set forth for men their lessons by similitudes.
Faitha laqeetumu allatheena kafaroo fadarba alrriqabi hatta itha athkhantumoohum fashuddoo alwathaqa faimma mannan baAAdu waimma fidaan hatta tadaAAa alharbu awzaraha thalika walaw yashao Allahu laintasara minhum walakin liyabluwa baAAdakum bibaAAdin waallatheena qutiloo fee sabeeli Allahi falan yudilla aAAmalahum
فإذا لقيتم الذين كفروا فضرب الرقاب حتى إذا أثخنتموهم فشدوا الوثاق فإما منا بعد وإما فداء حتى تضع الحرب أوزارها ۚ ذلك ولو يشاء الله لانتصر منهم ولكن ليبلو بعضكم ببعض ۗ والذين قتلوا في سبيل الله فلن يضل أعمالهم
Therefore, when ye meet the Unbelievers (in fight), smite at their necks; At length, when ye have thoroughly subdued them, bind a bond firmly (on them): thereafter (is the time for) either generosity or ransom: Until the war lays down its burdens. Thus (are ye commanded): but if it had been Allah's Will, He could certainly have exacted retribution from them (Himself); but (He lets you fight) in order to test you, some with others. But those who are slain in the Way of Allah, - He will never let their deeds be lost.
Sayahdeehim wayuslihu balahum
سيهديهم ويصلح بالهم

ويدخلهم الجنة عرفها لهم
And admit them to the Garden which He has announced for them.

Waallatheena kafaroo fataAAsan lahum waadalla aAAmalahum

Thalika biannahum karihoo ma anzala Allahu faahbata aAAmalahum
ذلك بأنهم كرهوا ما أنزل الله فأحبط أعمالهم

Afalam yaseeroo fee alardi fayanthuroo kayfa kana AAaqibatu allatheena min qablihim dammara Allahu AAalayhim walilkafireena amthaluha
۞ أفلم يسيروا في الأرض فينظروا كيف كان عاقبة الذين من قبلهم ۚ دمر الله عليهم ۖ وللكافرين أمثالها
Do they not travel through the earth, and see what was the End of those before them (who did evil)? Allah brought utter destruction on them, and similar (fates await) those who reject Allah.
Thalika bianna Allaha mawla allatheena amanoo waanna alkafireena la mawla lahum
ذلك بأن الله مولى الذين آمنوا وأن الكافرين لا مولى لهم

Afaman kana AAala bayyinatin min rabbihi kaman zuyyina lahu sooo AAamalihi waittabaAAoo ahwaahum

Is then one who is on a clear (Path) from his Lord, no better than one to whom the evil of his conduct seems pleasing, and such as follow their own lusts?
Mathalu aljannati allatee wuAAida almuttaqoona feeha anharun min main ghayri asinin waanharun min labanin lam yataghayyar taAAmuhu waanharun min khamrin laththatin lilshsharibeena waanharun min AAasalin musaffan walahum feeha min kulli alththamarati wamaghfiratun min rabbihim kaman huwa khalidun fee alnnari wasuqoo maan hameeman faqattaAAa amAAaahum
مثل الجنة التي وعد المتقون ۖ فيها أنهار من ماء غير آسن وأنهار من لبن لم يتغير طعمه وأنهار من خمر لذة للشاربين وأنهار من عسل مصفى ۖ ولهم فيها من كل الثمرات ومغفرة من ربهم ۖ كمن هو خالد في النار وسقوا ماء حميما فقطع أمعاءهم
(Here is) a Parable of the Garden which the righteous are promised: in it are rivers of water incorruptible; rivers of milk of which the taste never changes; rivers of wine, a joy to those who drink; and rivers of honey pure and clear. In it there are for them all kinds of fruits; and Grace from their Lord. (Can those in such Bliss) be compared to such as shall dwell for ever in the Fire, and be given, to drink, boiling water, so that it cuts up their bowels (to pieces)?
Waminhum man yastamiAAu ilayka hatta itha kharajoo min AAindika qaloo lillatheena ootoo alAAilma matha qala anifan olaika allatheena tabaAAa Allahu AAala quloobihim waittabaAAoo ahwaahum
ومنهم من يستمع إليك حتى إذا خرجوا من عندك قالوا للذين أوتوا العلم ماذا قال آنفا ۚ أولئك الذين طبع الله على قلوبهم واتبعوا أهواءهم
And among them are men who listen to thee, but in the end, when they go out from thee, they say to those who have received Knowledge, "What is it he said just then?" Such are men whose hearts Allah has sealed, and who follow their own lusts.
Waallatheena ihtadaw zadahum hudan waatahum taqwahum
والذين اهتدوا زادهم هدى وآتاهم تقواهم

Fahal yanthuroona illa alssaAAata an tatiyahum baghtatan faqad jaa ashratuha faanna lahum itha jaathum thikrahum
فهل ينظرون إلا الساعة أن تأتيهم بغتة ۖ فقد جاء أشراطها ۚ فأنى لهم إذا جاءتهم ذكراهم
Do they then only wait for the Hour, - that it should come on them of a sudden? But already have come some tokens thereof, and when it (actually) is on them, how can they benefit then by their admonition?
FaiAAlam annahu la ilaha illa Allahu waistaghfir lithanbika walilmumineena waalmuminati waAllahu yaAAlamu mutaqallabakum wamathwakum

ويقول الذين آمنوا لولا نزلت سورة ۖ فإذا أنزلت سورة محكمة وذكر فيها القتال ۙ رأيت الذين في قلوبهم مرض ينظرون إليك نظر المغشي عليه من الموت ۖ فأولى لهم
Those who believe say, "Why is not a sura sent down (for us)?" But when a sura of basic or categorical meaning is revealed, and fighting is mentioned therein, thou wilt see those in whose hearts is a disease looking at thee with a look of one in swoon at the approach of death. But more fitting for them -
TaAAatun waqawlun maAAroofun faitha AAazama alamru falaw sadaqoo Allaha lakana khayran lahum
طاعة وقول معروف ۚ فإذا عزم الأمر فلو صدقوا الله لكان خيرا لهم
Were it to obey and say what is just, and when a matter is resolved on, it were best for them if they were true to Allah.

ذلك بأنهم قالوا للذين كرهوا ما نزل الله سنطيعكم في بعض الأمر ۖ والله يعلم إسرارهم
This, because they said to those who hate what Allah has revealed, "We will obey you in part of (this) matter"; but Allah knows their (inner) secrets.
Fakayfa itha tawaffathumu almalaikatu yadriboona wujoohahum waadbarahum

Thalika biannahumu ittabaAAoo ma askhata Allaha wakarihoo ridwanahu faahbata aAAmalahum

Be not weary and faint - hearted, crying for peace, when ye should be uppermost: for Allah is with you, and will never put you in loss for your (good) deeds.
Innama alhayatu alddunya laAAibun walahwun wain tuminoo watattaqoo yutikum ojoorakum wala yasalkum amwalakum

Haantum haolai tudAAawna litunfiqoo fee sabeeli Allahi faminkum man yabkhalu waman yabkhal fainnama yabkhalu AAan nafsihi waAllahu alghaniyyu waantumu alfuqarao wain tatawallaw yastabdil qawman ghayrakum thumma la yakoonoo amthalakum
ها أنتم هؤلاء تدعون لتنفقوا في سبيل الله فمنكم من يبخل ۖ ومن يبخل فإنما يبخل عن نفسه ۚ والله الغني وأنتم الفقراء ۚ وإن تتولوا يستبدل قوما غيركم ثم لا يكونوا أمثالكم
Behold, ye are those invited to spend (of your substance) in the Way of Allah: But among you are some that are niggardly. But any who are niggardly are so at the expense of their own souls.
