Word by word
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. O you who believe! Take not My enemies and your enemies (i.e. disbelievers and polytheists) as friends, showing affection towards them, while they have disbelieved in what has come to you of the truth (i.e. Islamic Monotheism, this Qur'an, and Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم), and have driven out the Messenger (Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) and yourselves (from your homeland) because you believe in Allah your Lord! If you have come forth to strive in My Cause and to seek My Good Pleasure, (then take not these disbelievers and polytheists as your friends). You show friendship to them in secret, while I am All-Aware of what you conceal and what you reveal. And whosoever of you (Muslims) does that, then indeed he has gone (far) astray from the Straight Path .
Deutsch
O die ihr glaubt, nehmt nicht Meine Feinde und eure Feinde zu Schutzherren, indem ihr ihnen Zuneigung entgegenbringt, wo sie doch das verleugnen, was von der Wahrheit zu euch gekommen ist, und den Gesandten und euch selbst vertreiben, weil ihr an Allah, euren Herrn, glaubt. (Nehmt sie nicht zu Schutzherren), wenn ihr wirklich ausgezogen seid zum Abmühen auf Meinem Weg und im Trachten nach Meiner Zufriedenheit. (Tut das nicht, indem) ihr ihnen heimlich Zuneigung zeigt, wo Ich doch besser weiß, was ihr verbergt und was ihr offenlegt. Und wer von euch das tut, der ist fürwahr vom rechten Weg abgeirrt.
Yusuf Ali
O ye who believe! Take not my enemies and yours as friends (or protectors), - offering them (your) love, even though they have rejected the Truth that has come to you, and have (on the contrary) driven out the Prophet and yourselves (from your homes), (simply) because ye believe in Allah your Lord! If ye have come out to strive in My Way and to seek My Good Pleasure, (take them not as friends), holding secret converse of love (and friendship) with them: for I know full well all that ye conceal and all that ye reveal. And any of you that does this has strayed from the Straight Path.
Should they gain the upper hand over you, they would behave to you as enemies, and stretch forth their hands and their tongues against you with evil, and they desire that you should disbelieve.
Deutsch
Wenn sie auf euch treffen, sind sie euch feind und strecken gegen euch ihre Hände und ihre Zungen zum Bösen aus. Sie möchten gern, ihr würdet ungläubig.
Yusuf Ali
If they were to get the better of you, they would behave to you as enemies, and stretch forth their hands and their tongues against you for evil: and they desire that ye should reject the Truth.
Neither your relatives nor your children will benefit you on the Day of Resurrection (against Allah). He will judge between you. And Allah is the All-Seer of what you do.
Deutsch
Nicht nützen werden euch eure Blutsverwandten und auch nicht eure Kinder. Am Tag der Auferstehung wird Er (Allah) zwischen euch entscheiden'. Und was ihr tut, sieht Allah wohl.
Yusuf Ali
Of no profit to you will be your relatives and your children on the Day of Judgment: He will judge between you: for Allah sees well all that ye do.
Indeed there has been an excellent example for you in Ibrahim (Abraham) and those with him, when they said to their people: "Verily, we are free from you and whatever you worship besides Allah: we have rejected you, and there has started between us and you hostility and hatred for ever until you believe in Allah Alone" - except the saying of Ibrahim (Abraham) to his father: "Verily, I will ask forgiveness (from Allah) for you, but I have no power to do anything for you before Allah. " Our Lord! In You (Alone) we put our trust, and to You (Alone) we turn in repentance, and to You (Alone) is (our) final Return.
Deutsch
Ihr habt doch ein schönes Vorbild in Ibrahim und denjenigen, die mit ihm waren, als sie zu ihrem Volk sagten: "Wir sind unschuldig an euch und an dem, dem ihr anstatt Allahs dient. Wir verleugnen euch, und zwischen uns und euch haben sich Feindschaft und Haß auf immer offenkundig gezeigt, bis ihr an Allah allein glaubt." (Dies), außer das Wort Ibrahims zu seinem Vater: "Ich werde ganz gewiß für dich um Vergebung bitten; doch vermag ich für dich vor Allah gar nichts auszurichten. Unser Herr, auf Dich verlassen wir uns, und Dir wenden wir uns reuig zu. Und zu Dir ist der Ausgang.
Yusuf Ali
There is for you an excellent example (to follow) in Abraham and those with him, when they said to their people: "We are clear of you and of whatever ye worship besides Allah: we have rejected you, and there has arisen, between us and you, enmity and hatred for ever, - unless ye believe in Allah and Him alone": But not when Abraham said to his father: "I will pray for forgiveness for thee, though I have no power (to get) aught on thy behalf from Allah." (They prayed): "Our Lord! in Thee do we trust, and to Thee do we turn in repentance: to Thee is (our) Final Goal.
"Our Lord! Make us not a trial for the disbelievers, and forgive us, Our Lord! Verily, You, only You, are the All-Mighty, the All-Wise."
Deutsch
Unser Herr, mache uns nicht zu einer Versuchung für diejenigen, die ungläubig sind. Und vergib uns, unser Herr. Du bist ja der Allmächtige und Allweise."
Yusuf Ali
"Our Lord! Make us not a (test and) trial for the Unbelievers, but forgive us, our Lord! for Thou art the Exalted in Might, the Wise."
Certainly, there has been in them an excellent example for you to follow - for those who look forward to (the Meeting with) Allah and the Last Day. And whosoever turns away, then verily, Allah is Rich (Free of all needs), Worthy of all Praise.
Deutsch
Ihr habt ja in ihnen ein schönes Vorbild, und zwar für einen (jeden), der auf Allah und (auf) den Jüngsten Tag hofft. Wer sich jedoch abkehrt, so ist Allah der Unbedürftige und Lobenswürdige.
Yusuf Ali
There was indeed in them an excellent example for you to follow, - for those whose hope is in Allah and in the Last Day. But if any turn away, truly Allah is Free of all Wants, Worthy of all Praise.
Perhaps Allah will make friendship between you and those whom you hold as enemies. And Allah has power (over all things), and Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
Deutsch
Vielleicht setzt Allah zwischen euch und denjenigen von ihnen, mit denen ihr verfeindet seid, Zuneigung! Und Allah ist Allmächtig. Und Allah ist Allvergebend und Barmherzig.
Yusuf Ali
It may be that Allah will grant love (and friendship) between you and those whom ye (now) hold as enemies. For Allah has power (over all things); And Allah is Oft - Forgiving, Most Merciful.
Allah does not forbid you to deal justly and kindly with those who fought not against you on account of religion nor drove you out of your homes. Verily, Allah loves those who deal with equity.
Deutsch
Allah verbietet euch nicht, gegenüber denjenigen, die nicht gegen euch der Religion wegen gekämpft und euch nicht aus euren Wohnstätten vertrieben haben, gütig zu sein und sie gerecht zu behandeln. Gewiß, Allah liebt die Gerechten.
Yusuf Ali
Allah forbids you not, with regard to those who fight you not for (your) Faith nor drive you out of your homes, from dealing kindly and justly with them: for Allah loveth those who are just.
It is only as regards those who fought against you on account of religion, and have driven you out of your homes, and helped to drive you out, that Allah forbids you to befriend them. And whosoever will befriend them, then such are the Zalimun (wrong-doers - those who disobey Allah).
Deutsch
Er verbietet euch nur, diejenigen, die gegen euch der Religion wegen gekämpft und euch aus euren Wohnstätten vertrieben und zu eurer Vertreibung Beistand geleistet haben, zu Schutzherren zu nehmen. Diejenigen, die sie zu Schutzherren nehmen, das sind die Ungerechten.
Yusuf Ali
Allah only forbids you, with regard to those who fight you for (your) Faith, and drive you out of your homes, and support (others) in driving you out, from turning to them (for friendship and protection). It is such as turn to them (in these circumstances), that do wrong.
O you who believe! When believing women come to you as emigrants, examine them; Allah knows best as to their Faith, then if you ascertain that they are true believers send them not back to the disbelievers. They are not lawful (wives) for the disbelievers nor are the disbelievers lawful (husbands) for them. But give them (the disbelievers) that (amount of money) which they have spent [as their Mahr] to them. And there will be no sin on you to marry them if you have paid their Mahr to them. Likewise hold not the disbelieving women as wives, and ask for (the return of) that which you have spent (as Mahr ) and let them (the disbelievers) ask back for that which they have spent. That is the Judgement of Allah, He judges between you. And Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise.
Deutsch
O die ihr glaubt, wenn gläubige Frauen als Auswanderer zu euch kommen, dann prüft sie. Allah weiß besser über ihren Glauben Bescheid. Wenn ihr sie dann als gläubig erkennt, dann schickt sie nicht zu den Ungläubigen zurück. Weder sind sie ihnen (zur Ehe) erlaubt, noch sind sie ihnen (diesen Frauen) erlaubt. Und gebt ihnen (jedoch), was sie (früher als Morgengabe) ausgegeben haben. Es ist für euch kein Vergehen, sie zu heiraten, wenn ihr ihnen ihren Lohn gebt. Und haltet nicht an der Ehe mit den ungläubigen Frauen fest, und fordert, was ihr (als Morgengabe) ausgegeben habt, zurück. Auch sie sollen zurückfordern, was sie ausgegeben haben. Das ist Allahs Urteil; Er richtet zwischen euch. Und Allah ist Allwissend und Allweise.
Yusuf Ali
O ye who believe! When there come to you believing women refugees, examine (and test) them: Allah knows best as to their Faith: if ye ascertain that they are Believers, then send them not back to the Unbelievers. They are not lawful (wives) for the Unbelievers, nor are the (Unbelievers) lawful (husbands) for them. But pay the Unbelievers what they have spent (on their dower), and there will be no blame on you if ye marry them on payment of their dower to them. But hold not to the guardianship of unbelieving women: ask for what ye have spent on their dowers, and let the (Unbelievers) ask for what they have spent (on the dowers of women who come over to you). Such is the command of Allah: He judges (with justice) between you. And Allah is Full of Knowledge and Wisdom.
And if any of your wives have gone from you to the disbelievers, (as apostates and you asked them to return back your Mahr but they refused) - then you went out for a Ghazwah (military expedition) (against them and) gained booty; then pay from that booty to those whose wives have gone, the equivalent of what they had spent (on their Mahr ). And fear Allah in Whom you believe.
Deutsch
Und wenn euch etwas von euren Gattinnen bei den Ungläubigen verlorengeht und ihr dann (in) eine(r) Strafmaßnahme (Beute) macht, dann gebt denjenigen, deren Gattinnen fortgegangen sind, soviel, wie sie (zuvor für sie) ausgegeben haben. Und fürchtet Allah, an Den ihr glaubt.
Yusuf Ali
And if any of your wives deserts you to the Unbelievers, and ye have an accession (by the coming over of a woman from the other side), then pay to those whose wives have deserted the equivalent of what they had spent (on their dower). And fear Allah, in Whom ye believe.
O Prophet! When believing women come to you to give you the Bai'ah (pledge), that they will not associate anything in worship with Allah, that they will not steal, that they will not commit illegal sexual intercourse, that they will not kill their children, that they will not utter slander, intentionally forging falsehood (i.e. by making illegal children belonging to their husbands), and that they will not disobey you in Ma'ruf (Islamic Monotheism and all that which Islam ordains), then accept their Bai'ah (pledge), and ask Allah to forgive them. Verily, Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
Deutsch
O Prophet, wenn gläubige Frauen zu dir kommen, um dir den Treueid zu leisten, daß sie Allah nichts beigesellen, nicht stehlen, keine Unzucht begehen, ihre Kinder nicht töten, keine Verleumdung vorbringen, die sie vor ihren (eigenen) Händen und Füßen ersinnen, und sich dir nicht widersetzen in dem, was recht ist, dann nimm ihren Treueid an und bitte Allah für sie um Vergebung. Gewiß, Allah ist Allvergebend und Barmherzig.
Yusuf Ali
O Prophet! When believing women come to thee to take the oath of fealty to thee, that they will not associate in worship any other thing whatever with Allah, that they will not steal, that they will not commit adultery (or fornication), that they will not kill their children, that they will not utter slander, intentionally forging falsehood, and that they will not disobey thee in any just matter, - then do thou receive their fealty, and pray to Allah for the forgiveness (of their sins): for Allah is Oft - Forgiving, Most Merciful.
O you who believe! Take not as friends the people who incurred the Wrath of Allah (i.e. the Jews). Surely, they have despaired of (receiving any good in) the Hereafter, just as the disbelievers have despaired of those (buried) in graves (that they will not be resurrected on the Day of Resurrection).
Deutsch
O die ihr glaubt, nehmt nicht Leute zu Schutzherren, denen Allah zürnt. Sie haben ja die Hoffnung auf das Jenseits aufgegeben, so wie die Ungläubigen die Hoffnung (auf Wiederauferstehung) der (Toten) in den Gräbern aufgegeben haben.
Yusuf Ali
O ye who believe! Turn not (for friendship) to people on whom is the Wrath of Allah, of the Hereafter they are already in despair, just as the Unbelievers are in despair about those (buried) in graves.
