SIPARA 9
 
SURA ANFAAL

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.

  1. They ask thee concerning (things taken as) spoils of war. Say: "(Such) spoils are at the disposal of Allah and the Apostle: So fear Allah, and keep straight the relations between yourselves: Obey Allah and His Apostle, if ye do believe."
  2. For, believers are those who, when Allah is mentioned, feel a tremor in their hearts, and when they hear His signs rehearsed, find their faith strengthened, and put (all) their trust in their Lord.
  3. Who establish regular prayers and spend (freely) out of the gifts We have given them for sustenance:
  4. Such in truth are the believers: They have grades of dignity with their Lord, and forgiveness, and generous sustenance:
  5. Just as thy Lord ordered thee out of thy house in truth, even though a party among the believers disliked it.
  6. Disputing with thee concerning the truth after it was made manifest, as if they were being driven to death and they (actually) saw it.
  7. Behold! Allah promised you one of the two (enemy) parties, that it should be yours: Ye wished that the one unarmed should be yours, but Allah willed to justify the truth according to His words, and to cut off the roots of the unbelievers.
  8. That He might justify and prove falsehood false, distasteful though it be to those in guilt.
  9. Remember ye implored the assistance of your Lord, and He answered you: "I will assist you with a thousand of the angels, ranks on ranks."
  10. Allah made it but a message of hope, and an assurance to your heart: (In any case) there is no help except from Allah: And Allah is Exalted in power, Wise.
  11. Remember He covered you with a sort of drowsiness, to give you calm as from Himself, and He caused rain to descend on you from heaven, to clean you therewith, to remove from you the stain of satan, to strengthen your hearts, and to plant your feet firmly therewith.
  12. Remember thy Lord inspired the angels (with the message): "I am with you: Give firmness to the believers: I will instil terror into the hearts of the unbelievers: Smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off them."
  13. This because they contended against Allah and His Apostle: If any contend against Allah and His Apostle, Allah is strict in punishment.
  14. Thus (will it be said): "Taste ye then of the (punishment): For those who resist Allah, is the penalty of the fire."
  15. O ye who believe! when ye meet the unbelievers in hostile array, never turn your backs to them.
  16. If any do turn his back to them on such a day unless it be in a stratagem of war, or to retreat to a troop (of his own) He draws on himself the wrath of Allah, and his abode is Hell, and evil refuge (indeed)!
  17. It is not ye who slew them; it was Allah: When thou threwest (a handful of dust), it was not thy act, but Allah's: In order that He might test the believers by a gracious trial from Himself: For Allah is He who heareth and knoweth (all things).
  18. That, and also because Allah is He who makes feeble the plans and stratagems of the unbelievers.
  19. (O unbelievers!) if ye prayed for victory and judgment, now hath the judgment come to you: If ye desist (from wrong), it will be best for you: If ye return (to the attack) so shall We. Not the least good will your forces be to you even if they were multiplied: For verily Allah is with those who believe:
  20. O ye who believe! obey Allah and his Apostle, and turn not away from him when ye hear (him speak).
  21. Nor be like those who say, "we hear," but listen not:
  22. For the worst of beasts in the sight of Allah are the deaf and the dumb, those who understand not.
  23. If Allah had found in them any good, He would indeed have made them listen; (as it is), if He had made them listen, they would but have turned back and declined (faith).
  24. O ye who believe! give your response to Allah and His Apostle, when He calleth you to that which will give you life; and know that Allah cometh in between a man and his heart, and that it is He to whom Ye shall (all) be gathered.
  25. And fear tumult or oppression, which affecteth not in particular (only) those of you who do wrong and know that Allah is strict in punishment.
