Al Shawkani Exegesis – Surat Al ​​ Anfal

(Surah No 8) Ayah 1-​​ 75

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

In The Name Of Allah, The Most Gracious, The​​ Most​​ Merciful

يَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ الْأَنفَالِ ۖ قُلِ الْأَنفَالُ لِلَّهِ وَالرَّسُولِ ۖ فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَأَصْلِحُوا ذَاتَ بَيْنِكُمْ ۖ وَأَطِيعُوا اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ إِن كُنتُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ.(1)

They ask you, [O Muhammad], about the bounties [of war]. Say, “The [decision concerning] bounties is for Allah and the Messenger.” So fear Allah and amend that which is between you and obey Allah and His Messenger, if you should be believers​​ (1).

 

Oh Muhammad [SAAS]​​ They (Your Followers) Ask You About The Bounties & Spoils Of War. Answer Them, Oh Muhammad [SAAS]:​​ That The Bounties Are For Allah (SWT) & The Messenger [Of Allah (SWT)]. Thus​​ Fear Allah (SWT) Modifying & Rectifying What Is Between Each Of Yourselves And Obey​​ Allah (SWT) and His Messenger If You Were (True) Believers.

 

إِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُونَ الَّذِينَ إِذَا ذُكِرَ اللَّهُ وَجِلَتْ قُلُوبُهُمْ وَإِذَا تُلِيَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ آيَاتُهُ زَادَتْهُمْ إِيمَانًا وَعَلَىٰ رَبِّهِمْ يَتَوَكَّلُونَ.(2)

The believers are only those who, when Allah is mentioned, their hearts become fearful, and when His verses are recited to them, it increases them in faith; and upon their Lord they rely –

 

The (True) Believers Are The Ones Whom When The Name Of Allah (SWT) Is Uttered, Their Hearts Tremble And When His Ayat (SWT) Are Recited To Them, Their Faith Is Augmented And​​ Upon Their Lord Allah (SWT) Depend.

الَّذِينَ يُقِيمُونَ الصَّلَاةَ وَمِمَّا رَزَقْنَاهُمْ يُنفِقُونَ.(3)

The ones who establish prayer, and from what We have provided them, they spend​​ (3).

 

Those Who Perform Prayers And Spend (Alms & Charity) From What We (SWT) Have​​ Provided Them By Way Of Livelihood.

أُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ حَقًّا ۚ لَّهُمْ دَرَجَاتٌ عِندَ رَبِّهِمْ وَمَغْفِرَةٌ وَرِزْقٌ كَرِيمٌ.(4)

Those are the believers, truly. For them are degrees [of high position] with their Lord and forgiveness and noble provision​​ (4).

 

Those Are The True Believers. They Possess Levels Of High Degrees With Their Lord Allah (SWT) And Forgiveness​​ And Generous Subsistence.

كَمَا أَخْرَجَكَ رَبُّكَ مِن بَيْتِكَ بِالْحَقِّ وَإِنَّ فَرِيقًا مِّنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ لَكَارِهُونَ.(5)

 

[It is] just as when your Lord brought you out of your home [for the battle of Badr] in truth, while indeed, a party among the believers were unwilling (5).

 

Just As Your Lord Allah (SWT)​​ Ordered​​ You To Leave Your Home To Lead The Believers In The Battle Of Badr (In Truth) [Being The First Battle Between The Muslims​​ On The One Hand​​ And Polytheism,​​ Paganism, Disbelievers &​​ The​​ Blasphemous​​ In Al Medina Al Munawwarah, On The Other].

يُجَادِلُونَكَ فِي الْحَقِّ بَعْدَمَا تَبَيَّنَ كَأَنَّمَا يُسَاقُونَ إِلَى الْمَوْتِ وَهُمْ يَنظُرُونَ.(6)

 

Arguing with you concerning the truth after it had become clear, as if they were being driven toward death while they were looking on (6).

 

They Argue With You​​ Oh Muhammad [SAAS]​​ About Truth After It Became Apparent​​ To Them​​ As If They Were Driven Towards Death​​ While Looking At It.​​ 

وَإِذْ يَعِدُكُمُ اللَّهُ إِحْدَى الطَّائِفَتَيْنِ أَنَّهَا لَكُمْ وَتَوَدُّونَ أَنَّ غَيْرَ ذَاتِ الشَّوْكَةِ تَكُونُ لَكُمْ وَيُرِيدُ اللَّهُ أَن يُحِقَّ الْحَقَّ بِكَلِمَاتِهِ وَيَقْطَعَ دَابِرَ الْكَافِرِينَ.(7)

 

[Remember, O believers], when Allah promised you one of the two groups – that it would be yours – and you wished that the​​ unarmed one would be yours. But Allah intended to establish the truth by His words and to eliminate the disbelievers​​ (7).

 

While Allah (SWT) Promised You Either Parties To Be Yours And You Would Want That Party Without Arms To Be Yours, And Allah (SWT) Wants To Institute The Truth Through His Words And​​ To Uproot The Blasphemous.

 

لِيُحِقَّ الْحَقَّ وَيُبْطِلَ الْبَاطِلَ وَلَوْ كَرِهَ الْمُجْرِمُون.(8)

That He should establish the truth and abolish falsehood, even if the criminals disliked it​​ (8).

 

That He (SWT) Would Institute Truth​​ [Islam On The Earth]​​ & Eliminate​​ Falsehood Despite The Displeasure Of The​​ Criminals, Offenders & Lawbreakers​​ [From The Polytheists, The Pagans & The Blasphemous Of Makkah].

 

إِذْ تَسْتَغِيثُونَ رَبَّكُمْ فَاسْتَجَابَ لَكُمْ أَنِّي مُمِدُّكُم بِأَلْفٍ مِّنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ مُرْدِفِينَ.(9)

[Remember] when you asked help of your Lord, and He answered you, “Indeed, I will reinforce you with a thousand from the angels, following one another.”(9).

 

Remember, Oh Muhammad [SAAS] When You Implored The Assistance Of Your Lord Allah (SWT). The Messenger [SAAS] Supplicated: ”O Allah (SWT) Give Me What You Promised Me, That: ” I Will Be Victorious Over The Polytheists, The Pagans & The Blasphemous Of Makkah.​​ A Swift Response​​ Came Down​​ From​​ Allah​​ (SWT): “I Shall​​ Boost & Enhance Your​​ Efforts With Angles​​ [Rank Upon Rank]. Starting Of With: 1000, Then 3000, Then 5000 Angels.

 

وَمَا جَعَلَهُ اللَّهُ إِلَّا بُشْرَىٰ وَلِتَطْمَئِنَّ بِهِ قُلُوبُكُمْ ۚ وَمَا النَّصْرُ إِلَّا مِنْ عِندِ اللَّهِ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ​​ .(10)​​ 

And Allah made it not but good tidings and so that your hearts would be assured thereby. And victory is not but from Allah. Indeed, Allah is Exalted in Might and Wise​​ (10).

 

And Allah (SWT) Made It But A Message Of Hope And An Assurance To Your Hearts And There Is No Victory Except That From Allah (SWT). Verily, Allah (SWT) Is​​ The​​ Wise​​ &​​ Exalted In Might.

 

وَلَوْ يُعَجِّلُ اللَّهُ لِلنَّاسِ الشَّرَّ اسْتِعْجَالَهُم بِالْخَيْرِ لَقُضِيَ إِلَيْهِمْ أَجَلُهُمْ ۖ فَنَذَرُ الَّذِينَ لَا يَرْجُونَ لِقَاءَنَا فِي طُغْيَانِهِمْ يَعْمَهُونَ.(11)

And if Allah was to hasten for the people the evil [they invoke] as He hastens for them the good, their term would have been ended for them. But We leave the ones who do not expect the meeting with Us, in their transgression, wandering blindly​​ (11).

​​ 

And If Allah (SWT) Were To Speed Up & Accelerate For The Believers The Evil​​ Which​​ They Put Into Effect As Much As He (SWT) Would Accelerate For Them The Good, Their Worldly Term Would Have Been Curtailed.​​ However,​​ We (SWT)​​ Shall Desert The​​ Believers​​ Who Do Not Hope To Meet Us (SWT) [On Judgment Day] In​​ Their Blinding Tyranny.

 

إِذْ يُوحِي رَبُّكَ إِلَى الْمَلَائِكَةِ أَنِّي مَعَكُمْ فَثَبِّتُوا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا ۚ سَأُلْقِي فِي قُلُوبِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا الرُّعْبَ فَاضْرِبُوا فَوْقَ الْأَعْنَاقِ وَاضْرِبُوا مِنْهُمْ كُلَّ بَنَانٍ.(12)

[Remember] when your Lord inspired to the angels, “I am with you, so strengthen those who have believed. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieved, so strike [them] upon the necks and strike from them every fingertip”(12).

 

Remember Oh Muhammad [SAAS] When Your Lord Allah (SWT) Inspired The Angels: “That I (SWT) Am With You & Along Your Side, Thus Give Firmness To Those Who Have Believed In The Prophet Of Islam. I Shall Instill​​ Trepidation​​ 

& Horror Into The Hearts Of The Disbelievers. Thus Attack & Assault Them Above Their Necks And​​ Beat & Smite​​ Them On​​ Every Fingertip.

 

ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ شَاقُّوا اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ ۚ وَمَن يُشَاقِقِ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ شَدِيدُ الْعِقَابِ.(13)

That is because they opposed Allah and His Messenger. And whoever opposes Allah and His Messenger – indeed, Allah is severe in penalty​​ (13).

 

That Is Because They [The Polytheists, The Pagans & The Blasphemous Of Makkah]​​ Were Arduous To Allah (SWT) & His Messenger [SAAS] & Whosoever​​ Is Arduous To Allah (SWT) & His Messenger [SAAS], Then Allah [SWT]’s Penalty Is Severe.

ذَٰلِكُمْ فَذُوقُوهُ وَأَنَّ لِلْكَافِرِينَ عَذَابَ النَّارِ.(14)

 

“That [is yours], so taste it.” And indeed for the disbelievers is the punishment of the Fire​​ (14).

 

Thus​​ [It​​ Will Be Said]: ” Therefore Taste The Wrath Of Allah (SWT) And Verily For The Blasphemous​​ [The Polytheists, The Pagans & The Blasphemous Of Makkah] The Torment Of The Fire​​ Of Allah (SWT) Awaits Them.

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذَا لَقِيتُمُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا زَحْفًا فَلَا تُوَلُّوهُمُ الْأَدْبَارَ.(15)

O you who have believed, when you meet those who disbelieve advancing [for battle], do not turn to them your backs [in flight] (15).

 

Oh You Who Believed [Allah (SWT) & His Messenger [SAAS] If & When You Meet The Blasphemous Advancing Towards You In Battle, Then Do Not Turn Your Backs To Them, As If You Were Fleeing From Battle.

 

وَمَن يُوَلِّهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ دُبُرَهُ إِلَّا مُتَحَرِّفًا لِّقِتَالٍ أَوْ مُتَحَيِّزًا إِلَىٰ فِئَةٍ فَقَدْ بَاءَ بِغَضَبٍ مِّنَ اللَّهِ وَمَأْوَاهُ جَهَنَّمُ ۖ وَبِئْسَ الْمَصِيرُ.(16)

And whoever turns his back to them on such a day, unless swerving [as a strategy] for war or joining [another] company,​​ has certainly returned with anger [upon him] from Allah, and his refuge is Hell – and wretched is the destination (16).

 

And Whomsoever​​ Turns His Back​​ [Towards​​ The Enemy] Except​​ To Be Biased​​ Towards War​​ And Askew Towards Another Fighting Company, Then That Person Or Group Has​​ Failed The Orders Of Allah (SWT) And Thus Has Brought The “Wrath” Of​​ The Creator Upon Him. His Refuge & Asylum Shall Be The Abyss & Miserable Destiny.


فَلَمْ تَقْتُلُوهُمْ وَلَٰكِنَّ اللَّهَ قَتَلَهُمْ ۚ وَمَا رَمَيْتَ إِذْ رَمَيْتَ وَلَٰكِنَّ اللَّهَ رَمَىٰ ۚ وَلِيُبْلِيَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْهُ بَلَاءً حَسَنًا ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ

.(17)

And you did not kill them, but it was Allah who killed them. And you threw not, [O Muhammad], when you threw, but it was Allah who threw that He might test the believers with a good test. Indeed, Allah is Hearing and Knowing​​ (17).

 

And So You Muhammad [SAAS] And Your Muslim​​ Followers​​ Did Not​​ Kill The Infidels Of Makkah But Allah (SWT)​​ Killed Them.​​ And You​​ Oh Muhammad [SAAS]​​ Did Not Throw A Hand-Full Of Dust​​ In The Faces​​ Of The Polytheists, The Pagans & The Blasphemous Of Makkah​​ At The Battle Of Badr​​ [The 1st​​ Battle Of The Prophet [SAAS] And The Muslims Against The Makkan Infidels].

But Allah (SWT) Did. This Act By Allah (SWT)​​ Is To Show The Believers​​ That He (SWT) Might Test Them Graciously. For He (SWT) Is The All Hearing, The All Knowledgeable.

ذَٰلِكُمْ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ مُوهِنُ كَيْدِ الْكَافِرِينَ.(18)

That [is so], and [also] that Allah will weaken the plot of the disbelievers (18).

 

That Is So & And Also​​ Because Allah (SWT)​​ Attenuates & Weakens The Plots & Ploys Of The Blasphemous.

 

إِن تَسْتَفْتِحُوا فَقَدْ جَاءَكُمُ الْفَتْحُ ۖ وَإِن تَنتَهُوا فَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لَّكُمْ ۖ وَإِن تَعُودُوا نَعُدْ وَلَن تُغْنِيَ عَنكُمْ فِئَتُكُمْ شَيْئًا وَلَوْ كَثُرَتْ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ مَعَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ.(19)

If you [disbelievers] seek the victory – the defeat has come to you. And if you desist [from hostilities], it is best for you; but if you return [to war]​​ We will return, and never will you be availed by your [large] company at all, even if it should increase; and [that is] because Allah is with the believers (19).

 

If and When You Disbelievers Seek Victory, Then You Shall Be Defeated By The Hands Of The Messenger [SAAS] & His Supporters As Promised By Allah (SWT). However, If You​​ [The Polytheists, The Pagans & The Blasphemous Of Makkah]​​ Renounce & Refrain From Confrontation & Belligerency, Then It Will Be Best​​ For You.​​ On The Other Hand,​​ If​​ You Return To War So Shall The “Party Of Allah (SWT)” Since He (SWT) Is Always With His Prophet Muhammad [SAAS] & The Believers.​​ ​​ 

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا أَطِيعُوا اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ وَلَا تَوَلَّوْا عَنْهُ وَأَنتُمْ تَسْمَعُونَ.(20)

O you who have believed, obey Allah and His Messenger and do not turn from him while you hear [his order] (20).

 

Oh You Who Believed Obey Allah (SWT) & His Messenger [SAAS] And Do Not Give Your Backs To Him While You Are Hearing What His Prophet Muhammad [SAAS] Is Saying.

 

وَلَا تَكُونُوا كَالَّذِينَ قَالُوا سَمِعْنَا وَهُمْ لَا يَسْمَعُونَ.(21)

And do not be like those who say, “We have heard,” while they do not hear (21).

 

And Do Not Be Like Those Who Said: “We Heard​​ [What The Messenger [SAAS]] While They Are In Fact Not Listening To Him [SAAS].​​ 

إِنَّ شَرَّ الدَّوَابِّ عِندَ اللَّهِ الصُّمُّ الْبُكْمُ الَّذِينَ لَا يَعْقِلُونَ.(22)

Indeed, the worst of living creatures in the sight of Allah are the deaf and dumb who do not use reason​​ (22).

 

Verily,​​ The Most Evil of Beasts & Animals​​ To Allah (SWT) Are The Deaf & Dumb, Who Cannot Understand & Comprehend.

 

وَلَوْ عَلِمَ اللَّهُ فِيهِمْ خَيْرًا لَّأَسْمَعَهُمْ ۖ وَلَوْ أَسْمَعَهُمْ لَتَوَلَّوا وَّهُم مُّعْرِضُونَ.(23)

Had Allah known any good in them, He would have made them hear. And if He had made them hear, they would [still] have turned away, while they were refusing (23).

 

And​​ If​​ Allah (SWT) Had Acknowledged That These Beasts & Animals Had Any Benefit To Humans, He (SWT) Would Have Made Them “Listen” & Had They​​ Listened To The Command Of Allah (SWT), They Would Still Have Turned Away​​ While Persisting With Disobedience.

 

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اسْتَجِيبُوا لِلَّهِ وَلِلرَّسُولِ إِذَا دَعَاكُمْ لِمَا يُحْيِيكُمْ ۖ وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ يَحُولُ بَيْنَ الْمَرْءِ وَقَلْبِهِ وَأَنَّهُ إِلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُونَ.(24)

O you who have believed, respond to Allah and to the Messenger when he calls you to that which gives you life. And know that Allah intervenes between a man and his heart and that to Him you will be gathered (24).

 

Oh You Who Believed, Acknowledge​​ The Call Of Allah (SWT) & His Messenger [SAAS] To That Which Grants You Life. And​​ Be Informed That Allah (SWT) Intervenes & Interposes Between A Human Being & His Heart And That All Humankind Shall Gather To Him (SWT) On Judgment Day.

​​ 

وَاتَّقُوا فِتْنَةً لَّا تُصِيبَنَّ الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا مِنكُمْ خَاصَّةً ۖ وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ شَدِيدُ الْعِقَابِ.(25)

And fear a trial which will not strike those who have wronged among you exclusively, and know that Allah is severe in penalty​​ (25).

 

Beware & Fend Off A Tribulation​​ Which Shall Not Only Shock Those Who Have Unjustly Treated You​​ Solely, And Comprehend That Verily Allah (SWT)’s Punishment Is​​ Serious, Acute & Intense.

 

وَاذْكُرُوا إِذْ أَنتُمْ قَلِيلٌ مُّسْتَضْعَفُونَ فِي الْأَرْضِ تَخَافُونَ أَن يَتَخَطَّفَكُمُ النَّاسُ فَآوَاكُمْ وَأَيَّدَكُم بِنَصْرِهِ وَرَزَقَكُم مِّنَ الطَّيِّبَاتِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ.(26)

And remember when you were few and oppressed in the land, fearing that people might abduct you, but He sheltered you, supported you with His victory, and provided you with good things – that you might be grateful (26).​​ 

​​ ​​ ​​ 

And Recall When You [Muslims]​​ Were Few In Numbers And Vulnerable​​ in​​ Your Numbers On​​ The Earth With The Apprehension & Fear That Men Might Despoil & Kidnap You.​​ However, Allah (SWT) Provided You With A Safe Haven & Asylum​​ And Granted You​​ A Successful Outcome​​ Giving You Sustenance So That You May Be Thankful.

 

يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَخُونُوا اللَّهَ وَالرَّسُولَ وَتَخُونُوا أَمَانَاتِكُمْ وَأَنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ(27).

O you who have believed, do not betray Allah and the Messenger or betray your trusts while you know [the consequence]​​ (27).

 

Oh You Who Have Believed, Do Not Cheat & Deceive Allah (SWT) & His Messenger [SAAS]​​ Through Consequential Deception Of Your Own Trusteeship & Fidelity​​ With You Knowing In Advance.

 

وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّمَا أَمْوَالُكُمْ وَأَوْلَادُكُمْ فِتْنَةٌ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ عِندَهُ أَجْرٌ عَظِيمٌ.(28)

And know that your properties and your children are but a trial and that Allah has with Him a great reward​​ (28).

​​ 

And You Should Know That Your Possessions & Your Offspring [Progeny] Are But A Tribulation​​ And Verily, Allah (SWT) Possesses A Great Recompense & Reward.

 

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِن تَتَّقُوا اللَّهَ يَجْعَل لَّكُمْ فُرْقَانًا وَيُكَفِّرْ عَنكُمْ​​ سَيِّئَاتِكُمْ وَيَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ ۗ وَاللَّهُ ذُو الْفَضْلِ الْعَظِيمِ.(29)

O you who have believed, if you fear Allah, He will grant you a criterion and will remove from you your misdeeds and forgive you. And Allah is the possessor of great bounty (29).

 

Oh You Who Have Believed, If You​​ Possess Piety​​ Towards​​ Allah (SWT) Then​​ He (SWT)​​ Shall Give You​​ A Guiding Principle To Judge Between Right & Wrong And Atone You From Your Sins & Misdemeanours And Forgive You​​ For​​ Allah (SWT) Is The​​ Proprietor Of The Great Grace.

وَإِذْ يَمْكُرُ بِكَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لِيُثْبِتُوكَ أَوْ يَقْتُلُوكَ أَوْ يُخْرِجُوكَ ۚ وَيَمْكُرُونَ وَيَمْكُرُ اللَّهُ ۖ وَاللَّهُ خَيْرُ الْمَاكِرِينَ.(30)

And [remember, O Muhammad], when those who disbelieved plotted against you to restrain you or kill you or evict you [from Makkah]. But they plan, and Allah plans. And Allah is the best of planners​​ (30).

 

And If and When The Infidel Blasphemous Conspire & Collude Against You Oh Muhammad [SAAS] To​​ Imprison You, Or Kill You Or Expel and Evict You From Makkah, And So They Conspire. However, Allah (SWT) Is The​​ Best Conspirator​​ Of All.

 

وَإِذَا تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْهِمْ آيَاتُنَا قَالُوا قَدْ سَمِعْنَا لَوْ نَشَاءُ لَقُلْنَا مِثْلَ هَٰذَا ۙ إِنْ هَٰذَا إِلَّا أَسَاطِيرُ الْأَوَّلِينَ.(31)

And when​​ Our verses are recited to them, they say, “We have heard. If we willed, we could say [something] like this. This is not but legends of the former peoples”(31).

 

And Upon Reciting Our Ayat To Them They Said, We Have Already Heard Of This And If We Wished We Would Have Said A Similar Thing. These Are Nothing But Tales Of The Ancient.

 

وَإِذْ قَالُوا اللَّهُمَّ إِن كَانَ هَٰذَا هُوَ الْحَقَّ مِنْ عِندِكَ فَأَمْطِرْ عَلَيْنَا حِجَارَةً مِّنَ السَّمَاءِ أَوِ ائْتِنَا بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ.(32)

And [remember] when they said, “O Allah, if this should be the truth from You, then rain down upon us stones from the sky or bring us a painful punishment”(32).

 

And​​ So Upon Saying Oh Allah (SWT) If This Is Indeed The Truth From You Then Shower Us With​​ Stones & Rocks From The Heavens Or Send Upon Us Painful Torment.

 

وَمَا كَانَ اللَّهُ لِيُعَذِّبَهُمْ وَأَنتَ فِيهِمْ ۚ وَمَا كَانَ اللَّهُ مُعَذِّبَهُمْ وَهُمْ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ.(33)

But Allah would not punish them while you, [O Muhammad], are among them, and Allah would not punish them while they seek forgiveness (33).

 

However, Allah (SWT) Would Not Torment Them When You, Oh Muhammad [SAAS] Are Amongst Them And Allah (SWT) Shall Not Torment Them While They Are Seeking The Forgiveness Of Allah (SWT).

 

وَمَا لَهُمْ أَلَّا يُعَذِّبَهُمُ اللَّهُ وَهُمْ يَصُدُّونَ عَنِ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ وَمَا كَانُوا أَوْلِيَاءَهُ ۚ إِنْ أَوْلِيَاؤُهُ إِلَّا الْمُتَّقُونَ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ.(34)

But why should Allah not punish them while they obstruct [people] from al-Masjid al- Haram and they were not [fit to be] its guardians? Its [true] guardians are not but the righteous, but most of them do not know (34).

 

And What Argument & Reasoning Do They Possess That Allah (SWT) Shall Not Torment Those Who Restrict Visitors To Al Masjid Al Haram And They Are Not Its Lawful & True Guardians. The Lawful & True Guardians Are The Righteous But Most Of Them Do Not Comprehend.

 

وَمَا كَانَ صَلَاتُهُمْ عِندَ الْبَيْتِ إِلَّا مُكَاءً وَتَصْدِيَةً ۚ فَذُوقُوا الْعَذَابَ بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَكْفُرُونَ.(35)

And their prayer at the House was not except whistling and handclapping. So taste the punishment for what you disbelieved (35).

 

And For The Pagans & Infidels Attending Al Masjid Al Haram, Their Prayer Was Only But Whistling & Handclapping.​​ And So Taste The Torment Of Your Disbelieving​​ & Infidel Behaviour.

 

إِنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا يُنفِقُونَ أَمْوَالَهُمْ لِيَصُدُّوا عَن سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ۚ فَسَيُنفِقُونَهَا ثُمَّ تَكُونُ عَلَيْهِمْ حَسْرَةً ثُمَّ يُغْلَبُونَ ۗ وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا إِلَىٰ جَهَنَّمَ يُحْشَرُونَ.(36)

 

Indeed, those who disbelieve spend their wealth to avert [people] from the way of Allah. So they will spend it; then it will be for them a [source of] regret; then they will be overcome. And those who have disbelieved – unto Hell they will be gathered (36).

 

Verily, Those Who Are Blasphemous Spend Their Riches & Resources To Prevent Believers Spending In The Path Of Allah (SWT). And So They Shall Continue​​ To Hinder Believers From The Path Of Allah (SWT). But Finally, They Shall Only Have Remorse & Contrite With Repentance. And Those Who Have Blasphemed Shall Be Gathered In​​ The Abyss [On Resurrection Day].

 

لِيَمِيزَ اللَّهُ الْخَبِيثَ مِنَ الطَّيِّبِ وَيَجْعَلَ الْخَبِيثَ بَعْضَهُ عَلَىٰ بَعْضٍ فَيَرْكُمَهُ جَمِيعًا فَيَجْعَلَهُ فِي جَهَنَّمَ ۚ أُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْخَاسِرُونَ.(37)

[This is] so that Allah may distinguish the wicked from the good and place the wicked some of them upon others and heap them all together and put them into Hell. It is those who are the losers (37).

​​ 

So​​ That Allah (SWT) May Separate The Impure From The Pure, Then Pile The Impure One Upon The Other In a Heap & Cast All Into The Abyss, Those Are The Losers.

 

قُل لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا إِن يَنتَهُوا يُغْفَرْ لَهُم مَّا قَدْ سَلَفَ وَإِن يَعُودُوا فَقَدْ مَضَتْ سُنَّتُ الْأَوَّلِينَ.(38)

Say to those who have disbelieved [that] if they cease, what has previously occurred will be forgiven for them. But if they return [to hostility] – then the precedent of the former [rebellious] peoples has already taken place (38).

​​ ​​ 

Oh Muhammad [SAAS] Tell Those Who Have Blasphemed, If They Desist From Their Blasphemy, Then They Shall Be Forgiven For Their Previous Trespasses. However, If & When​​ They Go Back To Their​​ “Previous” Blasphemy​​ In Their Animosity To The Prophet Of Islam [SAAS]​​ Then The Disobedient, Revolutionary & Defiant​​ Shall​​ Have A Similar Outcome As Rebellious People Before Them​​ Did.

 

وَقَاتِلُوهُمْ حَتَّىٰ لَا تَكُونَ فِتْنَةٌ وَيَكُونَ الدِّينُ كُلُّهُ لِلَّهِ ۚ فَإِنِ انتَهَوْا فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ بِمَا يَعْمَلُونَ بَصِيرٌ.(39)

And fight them until there is no fitnah and [until] the religion, all of it, is for Allah. And if they​​ cease – then indeed, Allah is seeing of what they do (39).

 

And​​ Combat [The Infidels & Polytheists] Lest No Tribulation Occurs & Islam ​​ 

[Both Religion & Practise] Remains Solely For Allah (SWT). And Thus If They Terminate Their Actions Then Allah (SWT) Is Observant Of What They Are Doing.

 

وَإِن تَوَلَّوْا فَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ مَوْلَاكُمْ ۚ نِعْمَ الْمَوْلَىٰ وَنِعْمَ النَّصِيرُ.(40)

But if they turn away – then know that Allah is your protector. Excellent is the protector, and Excellent is the helper (40).

 

However, If They Turn Their Backs, Then Be Sure That Allah (SWT) Is Your Protector. He (SWT) Is The Best​​ Custodian,​​ Protector & The Best Aid.

 

وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّمَا غَنِمْتُم مِّن شَيْءٍ فَأَنَّ لِلَّهِ خُمُسَهُ وَلِلرَّسُولِ وَلِذِي الْقُرْبَىٰ وَالْيَتَامَىٰ وَالْمَسَاكِينِ وَابْنِ السَّبِيلِ إِن كُنتُمْ آمَنتُم بِاللَّهِ وَمَا أَنزَلْنَا عَلَىٰ عَبْدِنَا يَوْمَ الْفُرْقَانِ يَوْمَ الْتَقَى الْجَمْعَانِ ۗ وَاللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ.(41)

And know that anything you obtain of war booty – then indeed, for Allah is one fifth of it and for the Messenger and for [his] near relatives and the orphans, the needy, and the [stranded] traveler, if you have believed in Allah and in that which We sent down to Our Servant on the day of criterion – the day when the two armies met. And Allah, over all things, is competent​​ (41).

 

And All Of You Should Know That Any & All Booty Which You Might Gain During War, Then 1/5 or 20% Of The Booty Should Be​​ Reserved Or Put Aside For Allah​​ (SWT), His​​ Messenger [SAAS] And For The Prophets’ Near Relatives, & The Orphans, The Needy & The Deserted & Stranded Traveller. This On The Condition That You [All Muslims] Have Believed In Allah (SWT) & In The Day Of Criterion [Al Furqan] When Allah (SWT) Separated Between Those On The Side Of Truth & On The Side Of Falsehood On​​ The Day Of The Battle Of Badr.

 

إِذْ أَنتُم بِالْعُدْوَةِ الدُّنْيَا وَهُم بِالْعُدْوَةِ الْقُصْوَىٰ وَالرَّكْبُ أَسْفَلَ مِنكُمْ ۚ وَلَوْ تَوَاعَدتُّمْ لَاخْتَلَفْتُمْ فِي الْمِيعَادِ ۙ وَلَٰكِن لِّيَقْضِيَ اللَّهُ أَمْرًا كَانَ مَفْعُولًا لِّيَهْلِكَ مَنْ هَلَكَ عَن بَيِّنَةٍ وَيَحْيَىٰ مَنْ حَيَّ عَن بَيِّنَةٍ ۗ وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَسَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ.(42)

[Remember] when you were on the near side of the valley, and they were on the farther side, and the caravan was lower [in position] than you. If you had made an appointment [to meet], you would have missed the appointment. But [it was] so that Allah might accomplish a matter already destined – that those who perished [through disbelief] would perish upon evidence and those who lived [in faith] would live upon evidence; and indeed, Allah is Hearing and Knowing (42).

 

Recall, Oh Prophet Of Allah (SWT), When On The Day Of The Battle Of Badr, You & Your Followers [The Believers] Were On Near Side Of The Valley, While The Disbelievers Were On The Far Away Side And The Convoy Was At A Lower​​ Elevation​​ Than Yours. Had You Made A Rendezvous To Meet With Them,​​ You Would Have No Doubt Missed Your Appointment. However, It Was​​ Through The​​ Will Of Allah (SWT) That Those Who Were​​ Deemed & Intended​​ To Die Because​​ Of Their Blasphemy Upon Testimony, Would Actually Perish, While Those Who Existed​​ With “True Muslim Faith” Would Carry On Living​​ With That True Faith And​​ Verily,​​ Allah (SWT) Is The​​ All Hearing & All Knowledgeable.​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ 

 

إِذْ يُرِيكَهُمُ اللَّهُ فِي مَنَامِكَ قَلِيلًا ۖ وَلَوْ أَرَاكَهُمْ كَثِيرًا لَّفَشِلْتُمْ وَلَتَنَازَعْتُمْ فِي الْأَمْرِ وَلَٰكِنَّ اللَّهَ سَلَّمَ ۗ إِنَّهُ عَلِيمٌ بِذَاتِ الصُّدُورِ.(43)

[Remember, O Muhammad], when Allah showed them to you in your dream as few; and if He had shown them to you as many, you [believers] would have lost courage and would have disputed in the matter [of whether to fight], but Allah saved [you from that]. Indeed, He is Knowing of that within the breasts​​ (43).

 

And​​ Thus, Oh Muhammad [SAAS], Allah (SWT)​​ Showed​​ You​​ The Infidels And Disbelievers Only A Few​​ In Your Dream. Had​​ Allah (SWT) Showed​​ Them​​ In Your Dream​​ As Many,​​ You Oh Muhammad [SAAS] & The Believers Following You Would Have Failed & Lost Courage. But Allah (SWT)​​ Saved “You All”. He (SWT)​​ Is The Knowledgeable Of All “Human Hearts”.

وَإِذْ يُرِيكُمُوهُمْ إِذِ الْتَقَيْتُمْ فِي أَعْيُنِكُمْ قَلِيلًا وَيُقَلِّلُكُمْ فِي أَعْيُنِهِمْ لِيَقْضِيَ اللَّهُ أَمْرًا كَانَ مَفْعُولًا ۗ وَإِلَى اللَّهِ تُرْجَعُ الْأُمُورُ.(44)

And [remember] when He showed them to you, when you met, as few in your eyes, and He made you [appear] as few in their eyes so that Allah might accomplish a matter already destined. And to Allah are [all] matters returned​​ (44).

Oh Muhammad [SAAS], Allah (SWT) Showed You The Infidels And Disbelievers Only A Few In Your Eyes When You Met Them And Showed You As A Few In Their Eyes. This Is So That Allah (SWT)​​ Would Achieve A Matter Already Intended And To Allah (SWT) All Matters Revert.

 

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذَا لَقِيتُمْ فِئَةً فَاثْبُتُوا وَاذْكُرُوا اللَّهَ كَثِيرًا لَّعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ.(45)

O you who have believed, when you encounter a company [from the enemy forces], stand firm and remember Allah much that you may be successful​​ (45).

 

Oh You Have Believed, If You​​ Confront​​ A Denomination Or A Group From The Enemy [Blasphemous​​ Or​​ Infidels]​​ Stay Steadfast In Your Positions​​ & Recall Allah (SWT) A Lot That You May Be Victorious & Triumphant.

وَأَطِيعُوا اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ وَلَا تَنَازَعُوا فَتَفْشَلُوا وَتَذْهَبَ رِيحُكُمْ ۖ وَاصْبِرُوا ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ مَعَ الصَّابِرِينَ.(46)

And obey Allah and His Messenger, and do not dispute and [thus] lose courage and [then] your strength would depart; and be patient. Indeed, Allah is with the patient​​ (46).

 

And Submit To Allah (SWT) & His Messenger​​ And Do Not Clash & Disagree [Amongst Yourselves] That Your Strength May Diminish And Have Patience For Allah (SWT) Verily Is With The Patient Believers.

وَلَا تَكُونُوا كَالَّذِينَ خَرَجُوا مِن دِيَارِهِم بَطَرًا وَرِئَاءَ النَّاسِ وَيَصُدُّونَ عَن سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ۚ وَاللَّهُ بِمَا يَعْمَلُونَ مُحِيطٌ.(47)

And do not be like those who came forth from their homes insolently and to be seen by people and avert [them] from the way of Allah. And Allah is encompassing of what they do​​ (47).

 

And Do Not Be​​ The Same As Those Who Left​​ Their Homes Arrogantly So That They Are​​ Seen By Others To Deflect From The Path Of Allah (SWT)​​ However,​​ Allah (SWT)​​ Is The All Embracing Of What They Perpetrate.

 

وَإِذْ زَيَّنَ لَهُمُ الشَّيْطَانُ أَعْمَالَهُمْ وَقَالَ لَا غَالِبَ لَكُمُ الْيَوْمَ مِنَ النَّاسِ وَإِنِّي جَارٌ لَّكُمْ ۖ فَلَمَّا تَرَاءَتِ الْفِئَتَانِ نَكَصَ عَلَىٰ عَقِبَيْهِ وَقَالَ إِنِّي بَرِيءٌ مِّنكُمْ إِنِّي أَرَىٰ مَا لَا تَرَوْنَ إِنِّي أَخَافُ اللَّهَ ۚ وَاللَّهُ شَدِيدُ​​ الْعِقَابِ.(48)

 

And [remember] when Satan made their deeds pleasing to them and said, “No one can overcome you today from among the people, and indeed, I am your protector.” But when the two armies sighted each other, he turned on his heels and said, “Indeed, I am​​ disassociated from you. Indeed, I see what you do not see; indeed I fear Allah. And Allah is severe in penalty.”(48).

​​ ​​ ​​ 

Oh Muhammad [SAAS],​​ Remember When Al Shaytan Displayed The Actions Of​​ The Impious & Blasphemous​​ As Being​​ Attractive​​ To Them, Saying: “You Are Unbeatable & I Am Your Custodian”. However, Upon The Opposing Armies Sighted Each Other, Al Shaytan [As A Deceiver & Liar​​ To Humankind] Turned Back On His Heels And Said:”​​ I Am Separated & Disconnected From You. Verily, I See The Invisible To You And I Fear Allah (SWT) & Allah (SWT) Is Severe In Torment.

 

إِذْ يَقُولُ الْمُنَافِقُونَ وَالَّذِينَ فِي قُلُوبِهِم مَّرَضٌ غَرَّ هَٰؤُلَاءِ دِينُهُمْ ۗ وَمَن يَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللَّهِ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ.(49)

[Remember] when the hypocrites and those in whose hearts was disease said, “Their religion has deluded those [Muslims].” But whoever relies upon Allah – then indeed, Allah is Exalted in Might and Wise (49).

 

Oh Muhammad [SAAS], Remember When The Hypocrites And Those Who Had Disease In Their Hearts Saying About Muslims, Their Religion Has Mislead Them, And Whosoever Places His Reliance & Trust In Allah (SWT) Then Allah (SWT) Is Exalted In Might & Wisdom.

 

وَلَوْ تَرَىٰ إِذْ يَتَوَفَّى الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا ۙ الْمَلَائِكَةُ يَضْرِبُونَ وُجُوهَهُمْ وَأَدْبَارَهُمْ وَذُوقُوا عَذَابَ الْحَرِيقِ.(50)

And if you could but see when the angels take the souls of those who disbelieved… They are striking their faces and their backs and [saying], “Taste the punishment of the Burning Fire​​ (50).

 

And If You Only Oh Muhammad [SAAS] See The [Angels Of Death] Take The Souls Of The Blasphemous…Hitting Their Faces & Backs & Saying:” Taste The Torment Of The Hell Fire”.

 

ذَٰلِكَ بِمَا قَدَّمَتْ أَيْدِيكُمْ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ لَيْسَ بِظَلَّامٍ لِّلْعَبِيدِ.(51)

That is for what your hands have put forth [of evil] and because Allah is not ever unjust to His servants “(51).

 

Those Are The Deeds Which Your Hands Have Committed & Allah (SWT) Is Never Unjust To His Human Creation.

 

كَدَأْبِ آلِ فِرْعَوْنَ ۙ وَالَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ ۚ كَفَرُوا بِآيَاتِ اللَّهِ فَأَخَذَهُمُ اللَّهُ بِذُنُوبِهِمْ ۗ إِنَّ اللَّهَ قَوِيٌّ شَدِيدُ الْعِقَابِ.(52)

[Theirs is] like the custom of the people of Pharaoh and of those before them. They disbelieved in the signs of Allah, so Allah seized them for their sins. Indeed, Allah is Powerful and severe in penalty (52).

​​ 

The Way Of Life And The​​ Deeds​​ Of The Pharaoh & His People & Those Before Them Were Infidels And Blasphemous People Who Were Irreligious And Disbelievers In The Ayat Of Allah (SWT). Thus Allah (SWT) Took Them For Their​​ Sins. Verily, Allah (SWT) Is​​ Powerful, Tremendous, & Intense In​​ Punishment.​​ ​​ 

 

ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّ اللَّهَ لَمْ يَكُ مُغَيِّرًا نِّعْمَةً أَنْعَمَهَا عَلَىٰ قَوْمٍ حَتَّىٰ يُغَيِّرُوا مَا بِأَنفُسِهِمْ ۙ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ.(53)

That is because Allah would not change a favor which He had bestowed upon a people until they change what is within themselves. And indeed, Allah is Hearing and Knowing (53).

 

That Is Because Allah (SWT) Shall Not Alter or Modify A Bounty From Him (SWT) On​​ Humankind Until They Change What Is Inside​​ Themselves, And Allah (SWT) Verily Is Hearing & Knowledgeable.

 

كَدَأْبِ آلِ فِرْعَوْنَ ۙ وَالَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ ۚ كَذَّبُوا بِآيَاتِ رَبِّهِمْ فَأَهْلَكْنَاهُم بِذُنُوبِهِمْ وَأَغْرَقْنَا آلَ فِرْعَوْنَ ۚ وَكُلٌّ كَانُوا ظَالِمِينَ.(54)

[Theirs is] like the custom of the people of Pharaoh and of those before them. They denied the signs of their Lord, so We destroyed them for their sins, and We drowned the people of Pharaoh. And all [of them] were wrongdoers (54).

​​ ​​ 

The Way Of Life And The Deeds Of The Pharaoh & His People & Those Before Them Were Infidels And Blasphemous People Who Were Irreligious And Disbelievers In The Ayat Of Allah (SWT). Thus Allah (SWT) Took Them For Their​​ Sins &​​ Drowned Pharaoh And All Of His Followers,​​ All Of Whom Were Unjust​​ & Sinners In The Eyes Of Allah (SWT).

 

إِنَّ شَرَّ الدَّوَابِّ عِندَ اللَّهِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا فَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ.(55)

Indeed, the worst of living creatures in the sight of Allah are those who have disbelieved, and they will not [ever] believe (55).

 

Verily,​​ The Most Evil & Wicked Of Creatures In The Eyes Of Allah (SWT) Are Those Who Persist On Blasphemy, Rejecting Him (SWT) & Not Believing.

الَّذِينَ عَاهَدتَّ مِنْهُمْ ثُمَّ يَنقُضُونَ عَهْدَهُمْ فِي كُلِّ مَرَّةٍ وَهُمْ لَا يَتَّقُونَ.(56)

The ones with whom you made a treaty but then they break their pledge every time, and they do not fear Allah (56).

 

Those Whom You, Oh Messenger Of Allah (SWT) Made A Covenant With. However, They Break Their Covenant Each Time With​​ No Piety Of The Creator (SWT). This In Regards To The Jewish Tribe Of Banu Quraidha Who Came To The Aid Of The​​ Polytheists, The Pagans & The Blasphemous Of Makkah​​ At The Battle Of Al Khandaq. In This Battle The Jewish Tribe Of Banu Quraidha Were Aiming To Aid The Makkan Blasphemous Against The Muslims Led By The Prophet Muhammad​​ [SAAS].​​ The Result​​ Is In The Next Ayah (57).

فَإِمَّا تَثْقَفَنَّهُمْ فِي الْحَرْبِ فَشَرِّدْ بِهِم مَّنْ خَلْفَهُمْ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَذَّكَّرُونَ.(57)

So if you, [O Muhammad], gain dominance over them in war, disperse by [means of] them those behind them that perhaps they will be reminded (57).

 

If You, Oh Muhammad [SAAS] –Through The Will Of Allah (SWT) – Get Supremacy,​​ Power & Influence Over Them (Those Mentioned In Ayah 56) In Battle, Then Scatter​​ & Disseminate The Armies At Their​​ Rear So That They Might Recollect & Remember.

وَإِمَّا تَخَافَنَّ مِن قَوْمٍ خِيَانَةً فَانبِذْ إِلَيْهِمْ عَلَىٰ سَوَاءٍ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ الْخَائِنِينَ.(58)

If you [have reason to] fear from a people betrayal, throw [their treaty] back to them, [putting you] on equal terms. Indeed, Allah does not like traitors (58).

 

Oh Muhammad [SAAS], If And When You & Your Muslim Followers Fear Treachery From Any Group Of People, Folk, Nation Or Horde, Throw Back Their Covenant To Them So As To Be On Equal Terms. Verily, Allah (SWT)​​ Does Not Like The Treacherous, Disloyal & Unfaithful.

 

وَلَا يَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا سَبَقُوا ۚ إِنَّهُمْ لَا يُعْجِزُونَ.(59)

And let not those who disbelieve think they will escape. Indeed, they will not cause failure [to Allah] (59).

 

Let The Infidels, The​​ Polytheists, The Pagans & The Blasphemous (Of Makkah) Not​​ Think That They Shall Break Loose & Disappear Despite You Oh Muhammad [SAAS]​​ Being In​​ Their​​ Pursuit. Indeed Your Campaign To Combat Them Shall Be Successful & They Shall Taste Your Torment Through the Will Of Allah (SWT).

 

 

وَأَعِدُّوا لَهُم مَّا اسْتَطَعْتُم مِّن قُوَّةٍ وَمِن رِّبَاطِ الْخَيْلِ تُرْهِبُونَ بِهِ عَدُوَّ اللَّهِ وَعَدُوَّكُمْ وَآخَرِينَ مِن دُونِهِمْ لَا تَعْلَمُونَهُمُ اللَّهُ يَعْلَمُهُمْ ۚ وَمَا تُنفِقُوا مِن شَيْءٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ يُوَفَّ إِلَيْكُمْ وَأَنتُمْ لَا تُظْلَمُونَ.(60)

 

And prepare against them whatever you are able of power and of steeds of war by which you may terrify the enemy of Allah and your enemy and others besides them whom you do not know [but] whom Allah knows. And whatever you spend in the cause of Allah will be fully repaid to you, and you will not be wronged (60).

​​ ​​ ​​ 

Oh Muhammad [SAAS] Assemble & Prepare Against​​ The Infidels, The​​ Polytheists, The Pagans & The Blasphemous (Of Makkah) All The Force, Power & Strength Along With the Steeds Of Battle For Which You May Terrorize The Enemy Of Allah (SWT) & Yours [The Infidels, The​​ Polytheists, The Pagans & The Blasphemous (Of Makkah)] As Well As Others Unknown To You But Whom Allah (SWT) Is Aware Of. Also, Oh Messenger Of Allah (SWT) Whatever You May Expend In The Cause Of Allah (SWT) Shall Be Repaid & You Shall Not Unfairly Or Unjustly Be Treated.​​ 

 

وَإِن جَنَحُوا لِلسَّلْمِ فَاجْنَحْ لَهَا وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللَّهِ ۚ إِنَّهُ هُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ.(61)

And if they incline to peace, then incline to it [also] and rely upon Allah. Indeed, it is He who is the Hearing, the Knowing​​ (61).

 

And,​​ If Oh Muhammad [SAAS]​​ You​​ Are Inclined Or Choose Peace (With You & Your Muslim Followers Instead Of Combatting The​​ Infidels, The​​ Polytheists, The Pagans & The Blasphemous (Of Makkah), Then Choose That Path & Put Your Reliance On Allah (SWT), For He (SWT) Is The (All) Hearing &​​ (All)​​ Knowledgeable.

وَإِن يُرِيدُوا أَن يَخْدَعُوكَ فَإِنَّ حَسْبَكَ اللَّهُ ۚ هُوَ الَّذِي أَيَّدَكَ بِنَصْرِهِ وَبِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ.(62)

But if they intend to deceive you – then sufficient for you is Allah. It is He who supported you with His help and with the believers (62).

 

However, If They​​ [Choose To Trick, Cheat & Mislead You,​​ Then​​ Allah (SWT) With His Strength & Might Shall Suffice You [With Your Efforts​​ &​​ Muslim Followers].

وَأَلَّفَ بَيْنَ قُلُوبِهِمْ ۚ لَوْ أَنفَقْتَ مَا فِي الْأَرْضِ جَمِيعًا مَّا أَلَّفْتَ بَيْنَ قُلُوبِهِمْ وَلَٰكِنَّ اللَّهَ أَلَّفَ بَيْنَهُمْ ۚ إِنَّهُ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ.(63)

And brought together their hearts. If you had spent all that is in the earth, you could not have brought their hearts together; but Allah brought them together. Indeed, He is Exalted in Might and Wise (63).

 

​​ Moreover,​​ He (SWT)​​ Chose To Place Affection In Their Hearts​​ [& Minds]. If You,​​ Oh Muhammad [SAAS] Were To​​ Have Expended All The Wealth, Treasures & Fortunes On Earth, You Would Not Have Been Able To Bring Their Hearts & Minds Together As Allah (SWT) Did. He (SWT) Is Therefore The Extreme​​ & Glorious In Might & Wisdom.

 

​​ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ حَسْبُكَ اللَّهُ وَمَنِ اتَّبَعَكَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ.(64)

O Prophet, sufficient for you is Allah and for whoever follows you of the believers.

 

O​​ Prophet Of Islam,​​ Muhammad [SAAS],​​ Allah (SWT)​​ Is Adequate,​​ Suitable​​ & Appropriate​​ For You & Your Muslim Followers & Believers.

 

يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ حَرِّضِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَى الْقِتَالِ ۚ إِن يَكُن مِّنكُمْ عِشْرُونَ صَابِرُونَ يَغْلِبُوا مِائَتَيْنِ ۚ وَإِن يَكُن مِّنكُم مِّائَةٌ يَغْلِبُوا أَلْفًا مِّنَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا بِأَنَّهُمْ قَوْمٌ لَّا يَفْقَهُونَ.(65)

O Prophet, urge the believers to battle. If there are among you twenty [who are] steadfast, they will overcome two hundred. And if there are among you one hundred [who are] steadfast, they will overcome a thousand of those who have disbelieved because they are a people who do not understand​​ (65).

O Prophet Of Islam, Muhammad [SAAS], Induce &​​ Motivate​​ The Muslim Believers [Accompanying & Supporting You]​​ To​​ Combat​​ The Infidels, The​​ Polytheists, The Pagans & The Blasphemous (Of Makkah). If Amongst You Are Twenty​​ Believers Who Are Firm, Resolute, Determined & Decisive, Then They Shall Overcome & Vanquish Two Hundred​​ Of Those Who Disbelieved.​​ And If Amongst You [Muslim Believers] Are One Hundred​​ Who Are Firm, Resolute, Determined & Decisive, Then They Shall Overcome & Vanquish Two Hundred Of Those Who Disbelieved.​​ With A Similar Token,​​ One Hundred Of You Shall Overcome & Vanquish A Thousand Of The​​ Infidels, The​​ Polytheists, The Pagans & The Blasphemous (Of Makkah) For They Are Ignorant & Have No Comprehension Of Islam & Its Messenger [SAAS].

 

الْآنَ خَفَّفَ اللَّهُ عَنكُمْ وَعَلِمَ أَنَّ فِيكُمْ ضَعْفًا ۚ فَإِن يَكُن مِّنكُم مِّائَةٌ صَابِرَةٌ يَغْلِبُوا مِائَتَيْنِ ۚ وَإِن يَكُن مِّنكُمْ أَلْفٌ يَغْلِبُوا أَلْفَيْنِ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ ۗ وَاللَّهُ مَعَ الصَّابِرِينَ.(66)

Now, Allah has lightened [the hardship] for you, and He knows that among you is weakness. So if there are from you one hundred [who are] steadfast, they will overcome two hundred. And if there are among you a thousand, they will overcome two thousand by permission of Allah. And Allah is with the steadfast​​ (66).

 

Presently, Allah (SWT) Has​​ Alleviated & Mitigated The Hardship Upon You​​ [Followers of Muhammad [SAAS]​​ Knowing You Have Weakness. And Thus If Your Number Is One Hundred With Patients, Devotion & Commitment, Then You​​ [Muslims]​​ Shall Be Victorious & Triumphant Over​​ 200 Of​​ The​​ Non-Believers. And If There Are One 1000 Muslim Believers, They Shall Be Victorious Over​​ 2000 Of The Non-Believers​​ With The Blessing, Authorization & Consent Of Allah (SWT) And He (SWT) Is Alongside The Forbearing & Tolerant ​​ Of His Believers.

مَا كَانَ لِنَبِيٍّ أَن يَكُونَ لَهُ أَسْرَىٰ حَتَّىٰ يُثْخِنَ فِي الْأَرْضِ ۚ تُرِيدُونَ عَرَضَ الدُّنْيَا وَاللَّهُ يُرِيدُ الْآخِرَةَ ۗ وَاللَّهُ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ.(67)

It is not for a prophet to have captives [of war] until he inflicts a massacre [upon Allah ‘s enemies] in the land. Some Muslims desire the commodities of this world, but Allah desires [for you] the Hereafter. And Allah is Exalted in Might and Wise​​ (67).

 

It Is Not​​ Compatible With Or Appropriate To​​ A Prophet​​ (Of Islam)​​ To Take Prisoners​​ Of War​​ Or Captives Of Combat Until He​​ (With His Followers) Have Entirely Subdued The Land. You Look For The Temporal Goods​​ Of This Worldly Lifetime & Allah (SWT) Desires The Hereafter [For Humankind] And Allah (SWT) Is Exalted In Might & Wisdom.

لَّوْلَا كِتَابٌ مِّنَ اللَّهِ سَبَقَ لَمَسَّكُمْ فِيمَا أَخَذْتُمْ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمٌ.(68)

If not for a decree from Allah that preceded, you would have been touched for what you took by a great punishment​​ (68).

 

Had It Not Been​​ For​​ A Previous Ordainment From Allah (SWT),​​ You Would Have Been Touched By What You​​ Took [As Ransom] Great Torment.

فَكُلُوا مِمَّا غَنِمْتُمْ حَلَالًا طَيِّبًا ۚ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ(69).

So consume what you have taken of war booty [as being]​​ lawful and good, and fear Allah. Indeed,​​ Allah is Forgiving and Merciful (69).

 

Thus Consume From The Spoils​​ & Booties Of War As Being​​ Permissible And Legal For Muslim Consumption [Halal Food] And Be Aware & Fearful Of Allah (SWT) For Verily Allah (SWT) Is Forgiving & Merciful.

يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ قُل لِّمَن فِي أَيْدِيكُم مِّنَ الْأَسْرَىٰ إِن يَعْلَمِ اللَّهُ فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ خَيْرًا يُؤْتِكُمْ خَيْرًا مِّمَّا أُخِذَ مِنكُمْ وَيَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ ۗ وَاللَّهُ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ.(70)

O Prophet, say to whoever is in your hands of the captives, “If Allah knows [any] good in your hearts, He will give you [something] better than what was taken from you, and He will forgive you; and Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.”​​ (70).

 

O Muhammad [SAAS,​​ Prophet Of Islam] Tell Those Who​​ Are Your Captives​​ Or Prisoners Of War, If Allah (SWT) [Searches Your Hearts] And Finds Any “Good” He (SWT) Shall Provide You “Something Better” Than What Was Taken From You. He (SWT) Shall Forgive You. And Allah (SWT) Is The Forgiving & Merciful.

وَإِن يُرِيدُوا خِيَانَتَكَ فَقَدْ خَانُوا اللَّهَ مِن قَبْلُ فَأَمْكَنَ مِنْهُمْ ۗ وَاللَّهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ.(71)

But if they intend to betray you – then they have already betrayed Allah before, and He empowered [you] over them. And Allah is Knowing and Wise (71).

​​ 

And If They [The​​ Infidels, The​​ Polytheists, The Pagans & The Blasphemous (Of Makkah)] Want To Trick, Mislead & Delude You Oh Muhammad [SAAS], Then They Have Already Betrayed Allah (SWT) Being Unfaithful & Disloyal. Therefore Allah (SWT) Granted You Oh Prophet Of Allah (SWT) The Upper Hand Over Them And Allah (SWT) Is The All Knowledgeable & The All Wise.​​ 

 

إِنَّ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَهَاجَرُوا وَجَاهَدُوا بِأَمْوَالِهِمْ وَأَنفُسِهِمْ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَالَّذِينَ آوَوا وَّنَصَرُوا أُولَٰئِكَ بَعْضُهُمْ أَوْلِيَاءُ بَعْضٍ ۚ وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَلَمْ يُهَاجِرُوا مَا لَكُم مِّن وَلَايَتِهِم مِّن شَيْءٍ حَتَّىٰ يُهَاجِرُوا ۚ وَإِنِ اسْتَنصَرُوكُمْ فِي الدِّينِ فَعَلَيْكُمُ النَّصْرُ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ قَوْمٍ بَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَهُم مِّيثَاقٌ ۗ وَاللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ بَصِيرٌ.(72)

Indeed, those who have believed and emigrated and fought with their wealth and lives in the cause of Allah and those who gave shelter and aided – they are allies of one another. But those who believed and did not emigrate – for you there is no guardianship of them until they emigrate. And if they seek help of you for the religion, then you must help, except against a people between yourselves and whom is a treaty. And Allah is Seeing of what you do​​ (72).

 

Verily Those Who Have Believed​​ [In Allah (SWT)​​ & His Messenger​​ [SAAS],​​ Have​​ Emigrated​​ [Along With The Messenger & Other Believers]​​ & Have Fought Using Their Wealth And Committing Their Livelihood In The Path & Cause Of Allah (SWT) And Those Who Granted​​ Asylum &​​ Shelter And Aided One Another Are Allies​​ & Supporters Of Each Other.​​ As For Those Who Believed In The Messenger [SAAS] But Stayed Behind And Did Not Emigrate​​ You Have No Obligation To Give Them Protection​​ Except​​ & Until They Emigrate. And If They Require​​ Oh Muhammad​​ [SAAS] Your​​ Assistance & Help In Combating The​​ Infidels, The​​ Polytheists, The Pagans & The Blasphemous (Of Makkah) Then You Prophet of Islam Are Obliged To Help Them Become Victorious.​​ ​​ And If They Seek Your Explanation & Description Of The​​ Muslim​​ Religion​​ [Ayat Of The Qur’an & Sunnah], Then It Is Incumbent.​​ Necessary & Compulsory Upon You Oh Prophet Of Islam To​​ Help & Assist Them. Except Against A People With Whom You Have A Treaty Of Mutual Alliance. And Remember Oh Messenger [SAAS] Of Allah (SWT)​​ That Allah (SWT) Is Observant Of All That You Do.

وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا بَعْضُهُمْ أَوْلِيَاءُ بَعْضٍ ۚ إِلَّا تَفْعَلُوهُ تَكُن فِتْنَةٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَفَسَادٌ كَبِيرٌ.(73)

And those who disbelieved are allies of one another. If you do not do so, there will be fitnah on earth and great corruption (73).

 

 

And The Blasphemous Are Supporters & Protectors Of Each Other. Thus If You Muslim Believers Are Not Supporters & Protectors Of Each Other There Shall Be Trials & Tribulations On Earth And Untold​​ Corruption,​​ Oppression​​ & Mischief.

وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَهَاجَرُوا وَجَاهَدُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَالَّذِينَ آوَوا وَّنَصَرُوا أُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ حَقًّا ۚ لَّهُم مَّغْفِرَةٌ وَرِزْقٌ كَرِيمٌ.(74)

But those who have believed and emigrated and fought in the cause of Allah and those who gave shelter and aided – it is they who are the believers, truly. For them is forgiveness and noble provision​​ (74).

 

And Those Who Have Believed, Emigrated And Combated (With The Messenger [SAAS]) In The Path & Cause Of Allah (SWT)​​ And Those Who Gave Shelter & Extended Assistance To Their Muslim Brothers Are The True Believers, All Of Whom Shall Have From​​ Allah (SWT) Forgiveness & Gracious Sustenance.

 

وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مِن بَعْدُ وَهَاجَرُوا وَجَاهَدُوا مَعَكُمْ فَأُولَٰئِكَ مِنكُمْ ۚ وَأُولُو الْأَرْحَامِ بَعْضُهُمْ أَوْلَىٰ بِبَعْضٍ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ ۗ إِنَّ اللَّهَ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمٌ.(75)

 

And those who believed after [the initial emigration] and emigrated and fought with you – they are of you. But those of [blood] relationship are more entitled [to inheritance] in the decree of Allah. Indeed, Allah is Knowing of all things.

 

And Those Who Subsequently Accepted Islam After The First Emigration And Emigrated & Fought With You Oh Messenger Of Allah (SWT), They Are All Descendants Of A Common Ancestor Or Pedigree. However, Those Of Common Blood​​ [Lineage, Clan & Tribe] Are​​ More Deserving Of​​ Inheritance In The Glorious Qur’an. Most Certainly, Allah (SWT) Is Knowledgeable Of All His Creation.
