and the owners of authority
(for final) determination.
Allah has bestowed His Favor
and (for) those who are weak
(even as much as) a hair on a date seed.
those having the authority
surely would have known it
draw correct conclusion (from) it
surely you (would have) followed
surely He (would have) given them power
and surely they (would have) fought you.
(a greeting of) [the] peace,
`You are not a believer,`
then Allah conferred favor
(while) they (were) wronging
so that you (could) emigrate
so (that) they (can) assault
it was made to appear (so)
O ye who believe! Obey Allah, and obey the Messenger, and those charged with authority among you. If ye differ in anything among yourselves, refer it to Allah and His Messenger, if ye do believe in Allah and the Last Day: That is best, and most suitable for final determination.
Hast thou not turned Thy vision to those who declare that they believe in the revelations that have come to thee and to those before thee? Their (real) wish is to resort together for judgment (in their disputes) to the Evil One, though they were ordered to reject him. But Satan's wish is to lead them astray far away (from the right).
Those men,-Allah knows what is in their hearts; so keep clear of them, but admonish them, and speak to them a word to reach their very souls.
All who obey Allah and the messenger are in the company of those on whom is the Grace of Allah,- of the prophets (who teach), the sincere (lovers of Truth), the witnesses (who testify), and the Righteous (who do good): Ah! what a beautiful fellowship!
O ye who believe! Take your precautions, and either go forth in parties or go forth all together.
Let those fight in the cause of Allah Who sell the life of this world for the hereafter. To him who fighteth in the cause of Allah,- whether he is slain or gets victory - Soon shall We give him a reward of great (value).
And why should ye not fight in the cause of Allah and of those who, being weak, are ill-treated (and oppressed)?- Men, women, and children, whose cry is: "Our Lord! Rescue us from this town, whose people are oppressors; and raise for us from thee one who will protect; and raise for us from thee one who will help!"
Those who believe fight in the cause of Allah, and those who reject Faith Fight in the cause of Evil: So fight ye against the friends of Satan: feeble indeed is the cunning of Satan.
Hast thou not turned Thy vision to those who were told to hold back their hands (from fight) but establish regular prayers and spend in regular charity? When (at length) the order for fighting was issued to them, behold! a section of them feared men as - or even more than - they should have feared Allah: They said: "Our Lord! Why hast Thou ordered us to fight? Wouldst Thou not Grant us respite to our (natural) term, near (enough)?" Say: "Short is the enjoyment of this world: the Hereafter is the best for those who do right: Never will ye be dealt with unjustly in the very least!
When there comes to them some matter touching (Public) safety or fear, they divulge it. If they had only referred it to the Messenger, or to those charged with authority among them, the proper investigators would have Tested it from them (direct). Were it not for the Grace and Mercy of Allah unto you, all but a few of you would have fallen into the clutches of Satan.
Then fight in Allah's cause - Thou art held responsible only for thyself - and rouse the believers. It may be that Allah will restrain the fury of the Unbelievers; for Allah is the strongest in might and in punishment.
Except those who join a group between whom and you there is a treaty (of peace), or those who approach you with hearts restraining them from fighting you as well as fighting their own people. If Allah had pleased, He could have given them power over you, and they would have fought you: Therefore if they withdraw from you but fight you not, and (instead) send you (Guarantees of) peace, then Allah Hath opened no way for you (to war against them).
O ye who believe! When ye go abroad in the cause of Allah, investigate carefully, and say not to any one who offers you a salutation: "Thou art none of a believer!" Coveting the perishable goods of this life: with Allah are profits and spoils abundant. Even thus were ye yourselves before, till Allah conferred on you His favours: Therefore carefully investigate. For Allah is well aware of all that ye do.
When angels take the souls of those who die in sin against their souls, they say: "In what (plight) Were ye?" They reply: "Weak and oppressed Were we in the earth." They say: "Was not the earth of Allah spacious enough for you to move yourselves away (From evil)?" Such men will find their abode in Hell,- What an evil refuge! -
When ye travel through the earth, there is no blame on you if ye shorten your prayers, for fear the Unbelievers May attack you: For the Unbelievers are unto you open enemies.
When thou (O Messenger) art with them, and standest to lead them in prayer, Let one party of them stand up (in prayer) with thee, Taking their arms with them: When they finish their prostrations, let them Take their position in the rear. And let the other party come up which hath not yet prayed - and let them pray with thee, Taking all precaution, and bearing arms: the Unbelievers wish, if ye were negligent of your arms and your baggage, to assault you in a single rush. But there is no blame on you if ye put away your arms because of the inconvenience of rain or because ye are ill; but take (every) precaution for yourselves. For the Unbelievers Allah hath prepared a humiliating punishment.
Contend not on behalf of such as betray their own souls; for Allah loveth not one given to perfidy and crime:
To Allah belong all things in the heavens and on earth. Verily we have directed the People of the Book before you, and you (o Muslims) to fear Allah. But if ye deny Him, lo! unto Allah belong all things in the heavens and on earth, and Allah is free of all wants, worthy of all praise.
O ye who believe! stand out firmly for justice, as witnesses to Allah, even as against yourselves, or your parents, or your kin, and whether it be (against) rich or poor: for Allah can best protect both. Follow not the lusts (of your hearts), lest ye swerve, and if ye distort (justice) or decline to do justice, verily Allah is well-acquainted with all that ye do.
O ye who believe! Believe in Allah and His Messenger, and the scripture which He hath sent to His Messenger and the scripture which He sent to those before (him). Any who denieth Allah, His angels, His Books, His Messengers, and the Day of Judgment, hath gone far, far astray.
Those who believe, then reject faith, then believe (again) and (again) reject faith, and go on increasing in unbelief,- Allah will not forgive them nor guide them nor guide them on the way.
Yea, to those who take for friends unbelievers rather than believers: is it honour they seek among them? Nay,- all honour is with Allah.
(These are) the ones who wait and watch about you: if ye do gain a victory from Allah, they say: "Were we not with you?"- but if the unbelievers gain a success, they say (to them): "Did we not gain an advantage over you, and did we not guard you from the believers?" but Allah will judge betwixt you on the Day of Judgment. And never will Allah grant to the unbelievers a way (to triumphs) over the believers.
O ye who believe! Take not for friends unbelievers rather than believers: Do ye wish to offer Allah an open proof against yourselves?
Except for those who repent, mend (their lives) hold fast to Allah, and purify their religion as in Allah's sight: if so they will be (numbered) with the believers. And soon will Allah grant to the believers a reward of immense value.
Those who deny Allah and His messengers, and (those who) wish to separate Allah from His messengers, saying: "We believe in some but reject others": And (those who) wish to take a course midway,-
That they said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah";- but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not:-
For the iniquity of the Jews We made unlawful for them certain (foods) good and wholesome which had been lawful for them;- in that they hindered many from Allah's Way;-
Those who reject Faith and keep off (men) from the way of Allah, have verily strayed far, far away from the Path.
Those who reject Faith and do wrong,- Allah will not forgive them nor guide them to any way-
信道的人们啊!你们当服从真主,应当服从使者和你们中的主事人,如果你们为一件事而争执,你们使那件事归真主和使者(判决),如果你们确信真主和末日的话。这对于你们是裨益更多的,是结果更美的。
难道你没有看见吗?自称确信降示你的经典和在你之前降示的经典的人,欲向恶魔起诉----同时他们已奉令不要信仰他----而恶魔欲使他们深入迷误中。
这等人,真主是知道他们的心事的,故你当宽恕他们,当劝戒他们,当对他们说惊心动魄的话。
凡服从真主和使者的人,教与真主所护佑的众先知,忠信的人,诚笃的人,善良的人同在。这等人,是很好的伙伴。
信道的人们啊!你们当有戒备,故当部分动员,或全体动员。
以后世生活出卖今世生活的人,教他们为主道而战吧!谁为主道而战, 以致杀身成仁,或杀敌致果,我将赏赐谁重大的报酬。
你们怎么不为(保护)主道和(解救)老弱妇孺而抗战呢?他们常说:“我们的主啊!求你从这个虐民所居的城市里把我们救出去。求你从你那里为我们委任一个保护者,求你从你们那里为我们委任一个援助者。”
信道者,为主道而战;不信道者,为魔道而战;故你们当对恶魔的党羽作战;恶魔的计策,确是脆弱的。
难道你没有看见吗?有人曾对他们说:“你们当制止自己的武力,当谨守拜功,当完纳天课。”当真主以抗战为他们的定制的时候,他们中有一部分人畏惧敌人,犹如畏惧真主,乃至更加畏惧。他们说:“我们的主啊!你为什么以抗战为我们的定制呢?你为什么不让我们延迟到一个临近的日期呢?”你说:“今世的享受,是些微的;后世的报酬,对于敬畏者,是更好的。你们不受一丝毫的亏枉。”
当安全或恐怖的消息到达他们的时候,他们就加以传播,假若他们把消息报告使者和他们中主事的人,那末,他们中能推理的人,必定知道当如何应付。假若没有真主所赐你们的恩惠和慈恩,那末,你们除少数人外,必已顺从恶魔了。
你当为主道而抗战,你只负你自己的行为的责任,你当鼓励信士们努力抗战,也许真主阻止不信道者的战斗。真主的权力是更强大的,他的刑罚是更严厉的。
除非他们逃到曾与你们缔约的民众那里,或来归顺你们,既不愿对你们作战,又不愿对他们的宗族作战。假若真主意欲,他必使他们占优势,而他们必进攻你们。如果他们退避你们,而不进攻你们,并且投降你们,那末,真主绝不许你们进攻他们。
信道的人们啊!当你们为主道而出征的时候,你们当事事审慎,你们不要对向你们表示和平的人说:“你不是信士。”你们欲图今世生活的浮利,但在真主那里有丰富的福利。以前,你们是象那样的。但真主施恩于你们, 故你们应当事事审慎。真主确是彻知你们的行为的。
在自欺的情状之下众天神使其死亡的人,众天神必定问他们说:“生前你们是在什么情状之下呢!”他们说:“我们在地方上被人欺负的。”他们问:”难道真主的大地不是宽阔的、能容你们迁移的吗?”这等人的归宿是火狱,那是一个恶劣的归宿。
当你们在大地上旅行的时候,减短拜功,对于你们是无罪的,如果你们恐怕不信道者迫害你们。不信道者,确是你们明显的仇敌。
当你在他们之间,而你欲带领他们礼拜的时候,教他们中的一队人同你立正,并教他们携带武器。当他们礼拜的时候,叫另一队人防守在你们后面;然后,教还没有礼拜的那一队人来同你礼拜,教他们也要谨慎戒备,并携带武器。不信道的人,希望你们忽视你们的武器和物资,而乘机袭击你们。如果你们为雨水或疾病而感觉烦难,那末,放下武器对于你们是无罪的。你们当谨慎戒备。真主确已为不信道的人而预备凌辱的刑罚。
你不要替自欺者辩护。真主的确不喜欢奸诈的犯罪者。
天地万物,只是真主的。我确已嘱咐在你们之前曾受天经的人, 也嘱咐你们说:“你们当敬畏真主。”如果你们孤恩,那末,你们须知天地万物只是真主的,真主是无求的,是可颂的。
信道的人们啊!你们当维护公道,当为真主而作证,即使不利于你们自身,和父母和至亲。无论被证的人,富足的,还是贫穷的,你们都应当秉公作证;真主是最宜于关切富翁和贫民的。你们不要顺从私欲,以致偏私。如果你们歪曲事实,或拒绝作证,那末,真主确是彻知你们的行为的。
信道的人们啊!你们当确信真主和使者,以及他所降示给使者的经典,和他以前所降示的经典。谁不信真主、天神、经典、使者、末日,谁确已深入迷误了。
先信道,后叛道,再信道,再叛道,而叛逆日增的人,真主不会赦宥他们,也不会指引他们任何道路。
他们舍信道者而以不信道者为盟友。 他们想在不信道者面前求得权势吗?其实,一切权势全是真主的。
他们是期待你们遭遇灾难的。如果你们获得从真主发出的胜利,他们就说:“难道我们没有和你们在共同作战吗?”如果不信道者幸而战胜,他们就说:“难道我们没有战胜你们,并且使你们得免于信道者的征服吗?”故复活日真主将替你们判决,真主绝不让不信道者对信道的人有任何途径。
信道的人们啊!你们不要舍信道者而以不信道者为盟友, 你们欲为真主立一个不利于你们的明证吗?
惟悔罪自新,信托真主,且为真主而虔诚奉教的人, 是与信士们同等的;真主将以重大的报酬赏赐信士们。
有些人不信真主和众使者,有些人欲分离真主和众使者, 有些人说:“我们确信一部分使者,而不信另一部分。”他们欲在信否之间采取一条道路。
又因为他们说:“我们确已杀死麦尔彦之子麦西哈.尔撒,真主的使者。”他们没有杀死他,也没有把他钉死在十字架上,但他们不明白这件事的真相。为尔撒而争论的人,对于他的被杀害,确是在迷惑之中。他们对于这件事,毫无认识,不过根据猜想罢了。他们没能确实地杀死他。
我禁止犹太教徒享受原来准许他们享受的许多佳美的食物, 因为他们多行不义,常常阻止人遵循主道,
自己不信道,而且阻止别人遵循主道者,确已深入迷误了。
不信正道而且多行不义的人,真主不致于赦宥他们, 也不致于指引他们任何道路;
