ٱللَّهُ Allah al-lahu (there is) no lā god ilāha except illā Him huwa surely He will gather you layajmaʿannakum to ilā (the) Day yawmi (of) Resurrection l-qiyāmati no lā doubt rayba about it fīhi And who waman (is) more truthful aṣdaqu than mina Allah l-lahi (in) statement ḥadīthan
Allāh - there is no deity except Him. He will surely assemble you for [account on] the Day of Resurrection, about which there is no doubt. And who is more truthful than Allāh in statement.
۞ فَمَا So what famā (is the matter) with you lakum concerning fī the hypocrites (that) l-munāfiqīna (you have become) two parties fi-atayni While Allah wal-lahu cast them back arkasahum for what bimā they earned kasabū Do you wish aturīdūna that an you guide tahdū whom man is let astray aḍalla (by) Allah l-lahu And whoever waman is let astray yuḍ'lili (by) Allah l-lahu then never falan will you find tajida for him lahu a way sabīlan
What is [the matter] with you [that you are] two groups concerning the hypocrites,1 while Allāh has made them fall back [into error and disbelief] for what they earned.2 Do you wish to guide those whom Allāh has sent astray? And he whom Allāh sends astray - never will you find for him a way [of guidance].3
وَدُّوا۟ They wish waddū if law you disbelieve takfurūna as kamā they disbelieved kafarū and you would be fatakūnūna alike sawāan So (do) not falā take tattakhidhū from them min'hum allies awliyāa until ḥattā they emigrate yuhājirū in fī (the) way sabīli (of) Allah l-lahi But if fa-in they turn back tawallaw seize them fakhudhūhum and kill them wa-uq'tulūhum wherever ḥaythu you find them wajadttumūhum And (do) not walā take tattakhidhū from them min'hum any ally waliyyan and not walā any helper naṣīran
They wish you would disbelieve as they disbelieved so you would be alike. So do not take from among them allies until they emigrate for the cause of Allāh. But if they turn away [i.e., refuse], then seize them and kill them [for their betrayal] wherever you find them and take not from among them any ally or helper,
إِلَّا Except illā those who alladhīna join yaṣilūna [to] ilā a group qawmin between you baynakum and between them wabaynahum (is) a treaty mīthāqun or aw those who come to you jāūkum restraining ḥaṣirat their hearts ṣudūruhum that an they fight you yuqātilūkum or aw they fight yuqātilū their people qawmahum And if walaw (had) willed shāa Allah l-lahu surely He (would have) given them power lasallaṭahum over you ʿalaykum and surely they (would have) fought you falaqātalūkum So if fa-ini they withdraw from you iʿ'tazalūkum and (do) not falam fight against you yuqātilūkum and offer wa-alqaw to you ilaykumu [the] peace l-salama then not famā (has) made jaʿala Allah l-lahu for you lakum against them ʿalayhim a way sabīlan
Except for those who take refuge with a people between yourselves and whom is a treaty or those who come to you, their hearts strained at [the prospect of] fighting you or fighting their own people. And if Allāh had willed, He could have given them power over you, and they would have fought you. So if they remove themselves from you and do not fight you and offer you peace, then Allāh has not made for you a cause [for fighting] against them.
سَتَجِدُونَ You will find satajidūna others ākharīna wishing yurīdūna that an they be secure from you yamanūkum and they be secure from wayamanū their people qawmahum Everytime kulla that mā they are returned ruddū to ilā the temptation l-fit'nati they are plunged ur'kisū into it fīhā So if fa-in not lam they withdraw from you yaʿtazilūkum and offer wayul'qū to you ilaykumu [the] peace l-salama and they restrain wayakuffū their hands aydiyahum then seize them fakhudhūhum and kill them wa-uq'tulūhum wherever ḥaythu you find them thaqif'tumūhum And those wa-ulāikum We made jaʿalnā for you lakum against them ʿalayhim an authority sul'ṭānan clear mubīnan
You will find others who wish to obtain security from you and [to] obtain security from their people. Every time they are returned to [the influence of] disbelief, they fall back into it. So if they do not withdraw from you or offer you peace or restrain their hands, then seize them and kill them wherever you overtake them. And those - We have made for you against them a clear authorization.
