59. Al-Hashr

سَبَّحَGlorifiesلِلَّهِ[to] Allahمَاwhateverفِى(is) inٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِthe heavensوَمَاand whateverفِى(is) inٱلْأَرْضِthe earthوَهُوَAnd Heٱلْعَزِيزُ(is) the All-Mightyٱلْحَكِيمُthe All-Wise﴿١﴾

Whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth exalts Allah, and He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise

هُوَHeٱلَّذِىٓ(is) the One Whoأَخْرَجَexpelledٱلَّذِينَthose whoكَفَرُوا۟disbelievedمِنْfromأَهْلِ(the) Peopleٱلْكِتَٰبِ(of) the Scriptureمِنfromدِيَٰرِهِمْtheir homesلِأَوَّلِat (the) firstٱلْحَشْرِgatheringمَاNotظَنَنتُمْyou thinkأَنthatيَخْرُجُوا۟they would leaveوَظَنُّوٓا۟and they thoughtأَنَّهُمthat [they]مَّانِعَتُهُمْwould defend themحُصُونُهُمtheir fortressesمِّنَagainstٱللَّهِAllahفَأَتَىٰهُمُBut came to themٱللَّهُAllahمِنْfromحَيْثُwhereلَمْnotيَحْتَسِبُوا۟they expectedوَقَذَفَand He castفِىintoقُلُوبِهِمُtheir heartsٱلرُّعْبَ[the] terrorيُخْرِبُونَthey destroyedبُيُوتَهُمtheir housesبِأَيْدِيهِمْwith their handsوَأَيْدِىand the handsٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ(of) the believersفَٱعْتَبِرُوا۟So take a lessonيَٰٓأُو۟لِىO those endowedٱلْأَبْصَٰرِ(with) insight﴿٢﴾

It is He who expelled the ones who disbelieved among the People of the Scripture from their homes at the first gathering. You did not think they would leave, and they thought that their fortresses would protect them from Allah; but [the decree of] Allah came upon them from where they had not expected, and He cast terror into their hearts [so] they destroyed their houses by their [own] hands and the hands of the believers. So take warning, O people of vision

وَلَوْلَآAnd if notأَن[that]كَتَبَ(had) decreedٱللَّهُAllahعَلَيْهِمُfor themٱلْجَلَآءَthe exileلَعَذَّبَهُمْcertainly He (would) have punished themفِىinٱلدُّنْيَاthe worldوَلَهُمْand for themفِىinٱلْءَاخِرَةِthe Hereafterعَذَابُ(is) a punishmentٱلنَّارِ(of) the Fire﴿٣﴾

And if not that Allah had decreed for them evacuation, He would have punished them in [this] world, and for them in the Hereafter is the punishment of the Fire

ذَٰلِكَThatبِأَنَّهُمْ(is) because [they]شَآقُّوا۟they opposedٱللَّهَAllahوَرَسُولَهُۥand His MessengerوَمَنAnd whoeverيُشَآقِّopposesٱللَّهَAllahفَإِنَّthen indeedٱللَّهَAllahشَدِيدُ(is) severeٱلْعِقَابِ(in) penalty﴿٤﴾

That is because they opposed Allah and His Messenger. And whoever opposes Allah - then indeed, Allah is severe in penalty

مَاWhateverقَطَعْتُمyou cut downمِّنofلِّينَةٍ(the) palm-treesأَوْorتَرَكْتُمُوهَاyou left themقَآئِمَةًstandingعَلَىٰٓonأُصُولِهَاtheir rootsفَبِإِذْنِit (was) by the permissionٱللَّهِ(of) Allahوَلِيُخْزِىَand that He may disgraceٱلْفَٰسِقِينَthe defiantly disobedient﴿٥﴾

Whatever you have cut down of [their] palm trees or left standing on their trunks - it was by permission of Allah and so He would disgrace the defiantly disobedient

وَمَآAnd whatأَفَآءَ(was) restoredٱللَّهُ(by) AllahعَلَىٰtoرَسُولِهِۦHis Messengerمِنْهُمْfrom themفَمَآthen notأَوْجَفْتُمْyou made expeditionعَلَيْهِfor itمِنْofخَيْلٍhorsesوَلَاand notرِكَابٍcamelsوَلَٰكِنَّbutٱللَّهَAllahيُسَلِّطُgives powerرُسُلَهُۥ(to) His MessengersعَلَىٰoverمَنwhomيَشَآءُHe willsوَٱللَّهُAnd Allahعَلَىٰ(is) onكُلِّeveryشَىْءٍthingقَدِيرٌAll-Powerful﴿٦﴾

And what Allah restored [of property] to His Messenger from them - you did not spur for it [in an expedition] any horses or camels, but Allah gives His messengers power over whom He wills, and Allah is over all things competent

مَّآWhatأَفَآءَ(was) restoredٱللَّهُ(by) AllahعَلَىٰtoرَسُولِهِۦHis Messengerمِنْfromأَهْلِ(the) peopleٱلْقُرَىٰ(of) the townsفَلِلَّهِ(it is) for Allahوَلِلرَّسُولِand His Messengerوَلِذِىand for thoseٱلْقُرْبَىٰ(of) the kindredوَٱلْيَتَٰمَىٰand the orphansوَٱلْمَسَٰكِينِand the needyوَٱبْنِandٱلسَّبِيلِthe wayfarerكَىْthatلَاnotيَكُونَit becomesدُولَةًۢa (perpetual) circulationبَيْنَbetweenٱلْأَغْنِيَآءِthe richمِنكُمْamong youوَمَآAnd whateverءَاتَىٰكُمُgives youٱلرَّسُولُthe Messengerفَخُذُوهُtake itوَمَاand whateverنَهَىٰكُمْhe forbids youعَنْهُfrom itفَٱنتَهُوا۟refrainوَٱتَّقُوا۟And fearٱللَّهَAllahإِنَّIndeedٱللَّهَAllahشَدِيدُ(is) severeٱلْعِقَابِ(in) penalty﴿٧﴾

And what Allah restored to His Messenger from the people of the towns - it is for Allah and for the Messenger and for [his] near relatives and orphans and the [stranded] traveler - so that it will not be a perpetual distribution among the rich from among you. And whatever the Messenger has given you - take; and what he has forbidden you - refrain from. And fear Allah; indeed, Allah is severe in penalty

لِلْفُقَرَآءِFor the poorٱلْمُهَٰجِرِينَemigrantsٱلَّذِينَthose whoأُخْرِجُوا۟were expelledمِنfromدِيَٰرِهِمْtheir homesوَأَمْوَٰلِهِمْand their propertiesيَبْتَغُونَseekingفَضْلًاbountyمِّنَfromٱللَّهِAllahوَرِضْوَٰنًاand pleasureوَيَنصُرُونَand helpingٱللَّهَAllahوَرَسُولَهُۥٓand His Messengerأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَThoseهُمُtheyٱلصَّٰدِقُونَ(are) the truthful﴿٨﴾

For the poor emigrants who were expelled from their homes and their properties, seeking bounty from Allah and [His] approval and supporting Allah and His Messenger, [there is also a share]. Those are the truthful

وَٱلَّذِينَAnd those whoتَبَوَّءُوsettledٱلدَّارَ(in) the homeوَٱلْإِيمَٰنَand (accepted) faithمِنfromقَبْلِهِمْbefore themيُحِبُّونَloveمَنْ(those) whoهَاجَرَemigratedإِلَيْهِمْto themوَلَاand notيَجِدُونَthey findفِىinصُدُورِهِمْtheir breastsحَاجَةًany wantمِّمَّآof whatأُوتُوا۟they were givenوَيُؤْثِرُونَbut preferعَلَىٰٓoverأَنفُسِهِمْthemselvesوَلَوْeven thoughكَانَwasبِهِمْwith themخَصَاصَةٌpovertyوَمَنAnd whoeverيُوقَis savedشُحَّ(from) stinginessنَفْسِهِۦ(of) his soulفَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَthen thoseهُمُ[they]ٱلْمُفْلِحُونَ(are) the successful ones﴿٩﴾

And [also for] those who were settled in al-Madinah and [adopted] the faith before them. They love those who emigrated to them and find not any want in their breasts of what the emigrants were given but give [them] preference over themselves, even though they are in privation. And whoever is protected from the stinginess of his soul - it is those who will be the successful

وَٱلَّذِينَAnd those whoجَآءُوcameمِنۢfromبَعْدِهِمْafter themيَقُولُونَthey sayرَبَّنَاOur Lordٱغْفِرْforgiveلَنَاusوَلِإِخْوَٰنِنَاand our brothersٱلَّذِينَwhoسَبَقُونَاpreceded usبِٱلْإِيمَٰنِin faithوَلَاand (do) notتَجْعَلْputفِىinقُلُوبِنَاour heartsغِلًّاany rancorلِّلَّذِينَtowards those whoءَامَنُوا۟believedرَبَّنَآOur Lordإِنَّكَindeed Youرَءُوفٌ(are) Full of KindnessرَّحِيمٌMost Merciful﴿١٠﴾

And [there is a share for] those who came after them, saying, "Our Lord, forgive us and our brothers who preceded us in faith and put not in our hearts [any] resentment toward those who have believed. Our Lord, indeed You are Kind and Merciful

أَلَمْDo notتَرَyou seeإِلَى[to]ٱلَّذِينَthose whoنَافَقُوا۟(were) hypocritesيَقُولُونَsayingلِإِخْوَٰنِهِمُto their brothersٱلَّذِينَthose whoكَفَرُوا۟disbelievedمِنْamongأَهْلِthe Peopleٱلْكِتَٰبِ(of) the ScriptureلَئِنْIfأُخْرِجْتُمْyou are expelledلَنَخْرُجَنَّsurely we will leaveمَعَكُمْwith youوَلَاand notنُطِيعُwe will obeyفِيكُمْconcerning youأَحَدًاanyoneأَبَدًاeverوَإِنand ifقُوتِلْتُمْyou are foughtلَنَنصُرَنَّكُمْcertainly we will help youوَٱللَّهُAnd Allahيَشْهَدُbears witnessإِنَّهُمْthat theyلَكَٰذِبُونَ(are) surely liars﴿١١﴾

Have you not considered those who practice hypocrisy, saying to their brothers who have disbelieved among the People of the Scripture, "If you are expelled, we will surely leave with you, and we will not obey, in regard to you, anyone - ever; and if you are fought, we will surely aid you." But Allah testifies that they are liars

لَئِنْIfأُخْرِجُوا۟they are expelledلَاnotيَخْرُجُونَthey will leaveمَعَهُمْwith themوَلَئِنand ifقُوتِلُوا۟they are foughtلَاnotيَنصُرُونَهُمْthey will help themوَلَئِنAnd ifنَّصَرُوهُمْthey help themلَيُوَلُّنَّcertainly they will turnٱلْأَدْبَٰرَ(their) backsثُمَّthenلَاnotيُنصَرُونَthey will be helped﴿١٢﴾

If they are expelled, they will not leave with them, and if they are fought, they will not aid them. And [even] if they should aid them, they will surely turn their backs; then [thereafter] they will not be aided

لَأَنتُمْCertainly youأَشَدُّ(are) more intenseرَهْبَةً(in) fearفِىinصُدُورِهِمtheir breastsمِّنَthanٱللَّهِAllahذَٰلِكَThatبِأَنَّهُمْ(is) because theyقَوْمٌ(are) a peopleلَّا(who do) notيَفْقَهُونَunderstand﴿١٣﴾

You [believers] are more fearful within their breasts than Allah. That is because they are a people who do not understand

لَاNotيُقَٰتِلُونَكُمْwill they fight youجَمِيعًاallإِلَّاexceptفِىinقُرًىtownsمُّحَصَّنَةٍfortifiedأَوْorمِنfromوَرَآءِbehindجُدُرٍۭwallsبَأْسُهُمTheir violenceبَيْنَهُمْamong themselvesشَدِيدٌ(is) severeتَحْسَبُهُمْYou think theyجَمِيعًا(are) unitedوَقُلُوبُهُمْbut their heartsشَتَّىٰ(are) dividedذَٰلِكَThatبِأَنَّهُمْ(is) because theyقَوْمٌ(are) a peopleلَّاnotيَعْقِلُونَthey reason﴿١٤﴾

They will not fight you all except within fortified cities or from behind walls. Their violence among themselves is severe. You think they are together, but their hearts are diverse. That is because they are a people who do not reason

كَمَثَلِLike (the) exampleٱلَّذِينَ(of) thoseمِنfromقَبْلِهِمْbefore themقَرِيبًاshortlyذَاقُوا۟they tastedوَبَالَ(the) evil resultأَمْرِهِمْ(of) their affairوَلَهُمْand for themعَذَابٌ(is) a punishmentأَلِيمٌpainful﴿١٥﴾

[Theirs is] like the example of those shortly before them: they tasted the bad consequence of their affair, and they will have a painful punishment

كَمَثَلِLike (the) exampleٱلشَّيْطَٰنِ(of) the Shaitaanإِذْwhenقَالَhe saysلِلْإِنسَٰنِto manٱكْفُرْDisbelieveفَلَمَّاBut whenكَفَرَhe disbelievesقَالَhe saysإِنِّىIndeed, I amبَرِىٓءٌdisassociatedمِّنكَfrom youإِنِّىٓIndeed, [I]أَخَافُI fearٱللَّهَAllahرَبَّ(the) Lordٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ(of) the worlds﴿١٦﴾

[The hypocrites are] like the example of Satan when he says to man, "Disbelieve." But when he disbelieves, he says, "Indeed, I am disassociated from you. Indeed, I fear Allah, Lord of the worlds

فَكَانَSo will beعَٰقِبَتَهُمَآ(the) end of both of themأَنَّهُمَاthat theyفِى(will be) inٱلنَّارِthe Fireخَٰلِدَيْنِabiding foreverفِيهَاthereinوَذَٰلِكَAnd thatجَزَٰٓؤُا۟(is the) recompenseٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ(of) the wrongdoers﴿١٧﴾

So the outcome for both of them is that they will be in the Fire, abiding eternally therein. And that is the recompense of the wrong-doers

يَٰٓأَيُّهَاOٱلَّذِينَyou (who)ءَامَنُوا۟believeٱتَّقُوا۟FearٱللَّهَAllahوَلْتَنظُرْand let lookنَفْسٌevery soulمَّاwhatقَدَّمَتْit has sent forthلِغَدٍfor tomorrowوَٱتَّقُوا۟and fearٱللَّهَAllahإِنَّIndeedٱللَّهَAllahخَبِيرٌۢ(is) All-Awareبِمَاof whatتَعْمَلُونَyou do﴿١٨﴾

O you who have believed, fear Allah. And let every soul look to what it has put forth for tomorrow - and fear Allah. Indeed, Allah is Acquainted with what you do

وَلَاAnd (do) notتَكُونُوا۟beكَٱلَّذِينَlike those whoنَسُوا۟forgotٱللَّهَAllahفَأَنسَىٰهُمْso He made them forgetأَنفُسَهُمْthemselvesأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَThoseهُمُ[they]ٱلْفَٰسِقُونَ(are) the defiantly disobedient﴿١٩﴾

And be not like those who forgot Allah, so He made them forget themselves. Those are the defiantly disobedient

لَاNotيَسْتَوِىٓequalأَصْحَٰبُ(are the) companionsٱلنَّارِ(of) the Fireوَأَصْحَٰبُand (the) companionsٱلْجَنَّةِ(of) Paradiseأَصْحَٰبُ(The) companionsٱلْجَنَّةِ(of) Paradiseهُمُtheyٱلْفَآئِزُونَ(are) the achievers﴿٢٠﴾

Not equal are the companions of the Fire and the companions of Paradise. The companions of Paradise - they are the attainers [of success]
