وَإِن فَاتَكُمۡ شَيۡءٞ مِّنۡ أَزۡوَٰجِكُمۡ إِلَى ٱلۡكُفَّارِ فَعَاقَبۡتُمۡ فَ‍َٔاتُواْ ٱلَّذِينَ ذَهَبَتۡ أَزۡوَٰجُهُم مِّثۡلَ مَآ أَنفَقُواْۚ وَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ ٱلَّذِيٓ أَنتُم بِهِۦ مُؤۡمِنُونَ 11

11        And if you lose any of your wives (who run away) to dis-believers and you cannot get them (i.e. they don’t let you see her nor return the Mahr you paid). Then you should take revenge (as follows). If there is a situation where you are supposed to pay Mahr to the disbelievers, then don’t pay this amount of Mahr to the disbelievers. Rather compensate those believers with this money equal to the Mahr they paid to their wives (lost to the disbelievers). And fear Allah, in Whom you believe.

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّبِيُّ إِذَا جَآءَكَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنَٰتُ يُبَايِعۡنَكَ عَلَىٰٓ أَن لَّا يُشۡرِكۡنَ بِٱللَّهِ شَيۡ‍ٔٗا وَلَا يَسۡرِقۡنَ وَلَا يَزۡنِينَ وَلَا يَقۡتُلۡنَ أَوۡلَٰدَهُنَّ وَلَا يَأۡتِينَ بِبُهۡتَٰنٖ يَفۡتَرِينَهُۥ بَيۡنَ أَيۡدِيهِنَّ وَأَرۡجُلِهِنَّ وَلَا يَعۡصِينَكَ فِي مَعۡرُوفٖ فَبَايِعۡهُنَّ وَٱسۡتَغۡفِرۡ لَهُنَّ ٱللَّهَۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورٞ رَّحِيمٞ 12

12        O Prophet(may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him)! When believing women come to you to give you a pledge that they will not associate anything in worship with Allah, and will not steal, and will not commit adultery, and will not kill their children, and will not slander others by coining falsehood (i.e. by making illegal children belonging to their husbands), and will not disobey you in performing good deeds, then accept their pledge, and pray to Allah for their forgiveness. Indeed, Allah is Very-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ لَا تَتَوَلَّوۡاْ قَوۡمًا غَضِبَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيۡهِمۡ قَدۡ يَئِسُواْ مِنَ ٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ كَمَا يَئِسَ ٱلۡكُفَّارُ مِنۡ أَصۡحَٰبِ ٱلۡقُبُورِ 13

13        O you who believe! Don’t make friendship with those who have earned the Wrath of Allah. (i.e. Jews) Indeed, they have lost hope of (i.e. deny the occurrence of) the Hereafter, just as the disbelievers have lost hope (i.e. deny) about those (buried) in graves (that they will be resurrected on the Day of Resurrection). (Tabari)

سَبَّحَ لِلَّهِ مَا فِي ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَمَا فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِۖ وَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلۡحَكِيمُ 1

1        Whatsoever is in the heavens and on the earth glorifies Allah. And Allah is the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ لِمَ تَقُولُونَ مَا لَا تَفۡعَلُونَ 2

2        (Since Allah is so Great, all His Commands should be obeyed including Jihad, which some of you shun). O you who believe! Why do you utter something which you don’t do (in practice).

كَبُرَ مَقۡتًا عِندَ ٱللَّهِ أَن تَقُولُواْ مَا لَا تَفۡعَلُونَ 3

3        It is extremely hateful to Allah that you say something but you (practically) don’t perform it. (You say: “If we know what Allah loves the most, we will readily do it.” Since Jihad is loved the most by Allah, then why do you shun it? – Bukhari, Vol.4, No.45, Musnad Ahmad 5/452)

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُحِبُّ ٱلَّذِينَ يُقَٰتِلُونَ فِي سَبِيلِهِۦ صَفّٗا كَأَنَّهُم بُنۡيَٰنٞ مَّرۡصُوصٞ 4

4        Indeed, Allah loves those who fight in His cause (organized) in rows as if they were a solid structure.

وَإِذۡ قَالَ مُوسَىٰ لِقَوۡمِهِۦ يَٰقَوۡمِ لِمَ تُؤۡذُونَنِي وَقَد تَّعۡلَمُونَ أَنِّي رَسُولُ ٱللَّهِ إِلَيۡكُمۡۖ فَلَمَّا زَاغُوٓاْ أَزَاغَ ٱللَّهُ قُلُوبَهُمۡۚ وَٱللَّهُ لَا يَهۡدِي ٱلۡقَوۡمَ ٱلۡفَٰسِقِينَ 5

5        And (remember) when Musa ( peace be upon him )said to his people: “O my people! Why do you torture me while you know that I am a messenger to you from Allah?” So when they turned away (from the Path of Allah), Allah turned their hearts away (from the Right Path). And Allah does not guide people who are disobedient (to Allah).

وَإِذۡ قَالَ عِيسَى ٱبۡنُ مَرۡيَمَ يَٰبَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ إِنِّي رَسُولُ ٱللَّهِ إِلَيۡكُم مُّصَدِّقٗا لِّمَا بَيۡنَ يَدَيَّ مِنَ ٱلتَّوۡرَىٰةِ وَمُبَشِّرَۢا بِرَسُولٖ يَأۡتِي مِنۢ بَعۡدِي ٱسۡمُهُۥٓ أَحۡمَدُۖ فَلَمَّا جَآءَهُم بِٱلۡبَيِّنَٰتِ قَالُواْ هَٰذَا سِحۡرٞ مُّبِينٞ 6

6        And (remember) when Isa (PBUH), son of Maryam, said: “I am a messenger of Allah to you, confirming the Taurat which came before me and giving you glad tidings of a messenger to come after me, whose name shall be Ahmad. But when he [Ahmad i.e. Muhammad (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him)] came to them with clear miracles, they said: “This is an obvious magic.”

وَمَنۡ أَظۡلَمُ مِمَّنِ ٱفۡتَرَىٰ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ ٱلۡكَذِبَ وَهُوَ يُدۡعَىٰٓ إِلَى ٱلۡإِسۡلَٰمِۚ وَٱللَّهُ لَا يَهۡدِي ٱلۡقَوۡمَ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ 7

7        And who can be more wrong than the one who coins lie against Allah, though he is being invited to Islam? And Allah does not guide people who are wrong-doers.

يُرِيدُونَ لِيُطۡفِ‍ُٔواْ نُورَ ٱللَّهِ بِأَفۡوَٰهِهِمۡ وَٱللَّهُ مُتِمُّ نُورِهِۦ وَلَوۡ كَرِهَ ٱلۡكَٰفِرُونَ 8

8        (Here are glad tidings of the final victory of Muslims and motivation for Jihad). They (the disbelievers) intend to put out the light of Allah (i.e. Islam) by their mouths (i.e. with their mockery), although Allah will bring His light to perfection (i.e. will dominate it over other religions) even though the disbelievers hate it.

هُوَ ٱلَّذِيٓ أَرۡسَلَ رَسُولَهُۥ بِٱلۡهُدَىٰ وَدِينِ ٱلۡحَقِّ لِيُظۡهِرَهُۥ عَلَى ٱلدِّينِ كُلِّهِۦ وَلَوۡ كَرِهَ ٱلۡمُشۡرِكُونَ 9

9        Allah has sent His Messenger [Muhammad (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him)] with guidance (i.e. the Quran) and the religion of truth (i.e. Islam) so that he makes this religion dominate all other religions even though the idolaters hate it.

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ هَلۡ أَدُلُّكُمۡ عَلَىٰ تِجَٰرَةٖ تُنجِيكُم مِّنۡ عَذَابٍ أَلِيمٖ 10

10        O you who believe! Shall I guide you to a trade that will save you from a painful torment. (Also see Surah At-Taubah:111)

تُؤۡمِنُونَ بِٱللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِۦ وَتُجَٰهِدُونَ فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ بِأَمۡوَٰلِكُمۡ وَأَنفُسِكُمۡۚ ذَٰلِكُمۡ خَيۡرٞ لَّكُمۡ إِن كُنتُمۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ 11

11        (It is as follows) you should believe in Allah and His Messenger [Muhammad (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him)] and you should strive (sincerely) in the Cause of Allah with your wealth and your lives. That will be (much) better for you, if you understand.

يَغۡفِرۡ لَكُمۡ ذُنُوبَكُمۡ وَيُدۡخِلۡكُمۡ جَنَّٰتٖ تَجۡرِي مِن تَحۡتِهَا ٱلۡأَنۡهَٰرُ وَمَسَٰكِنَ طَيِّبَةٗ فِي جَنَّٰتِ عَدۡنٖۚ ذَٰلِكَ ٱلۡفَوۡزُ ٱلۡعَظِيمُ 12

12        (If you do this) Allah will forgive your sins and admit you into Gardens beneath which rivers flow, and gracious residence in Eden (i.e. Paradise). That is, indeed, a great success.

وَأُخۡرَىٰ تُحِبُّونَهَاۖ نَصۡرٞ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ وَفَتۡحٞ قَرِيبٞۗ وَبَشِّرِ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ 13

13        There is a reward (in this worldly life too), and you shall love it. That is the help of Allah and a near victory (i.e. conquest of Makkah, Iran and Rome). [O Muhammad (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him)!] Give glad tidings to the believers. (Also see Surah Aal-Imran:139)

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ كُونُوٓاْ أَنصَارَ ٱللَّهِ كَمَا قَالَ عِيسَى ٱبۡنُ مَرۡيَمَ لِلۡحَوَارِيِّ‍ۧنَ مَنۡ أَنصَارِيٓ إِلَى ٱللَّهِۖ قَالَ ٱلۡحَوَارِيُّونَ نَحۡنُ أَنصَارُ ٱللَّهِۖ فَ‍َٔامَنَت طَّآئِفَةٞ مِّنۢ بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ وَكَفَرَت طَّآئِفَةٞۖ فَأَيَّدۡنَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ عَلَىٰ عَدُوِّهِمۡ فَأَصۡبَحُواْ ظَٰهِرِينَ 14

14        O you who believe! You should become helpers (in the Cause) of Allah, just like when Isa (PBUH), son of Maryam, said to his disciples: “Who are my helpers (in the Cause of Allah)?” The disciples said: “We are helpers (in the Cause) of Allah.” (The disciples did strive hard to propagate their religion. Inspite of their effort) a party of the Children of Israel believed and a party disbelieved. We helped the believers against their enemies and they became dominant.

يُسَبِّحُ لِلَّهِ مَا فِي ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَمَا فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ ٱلۡمَلِكِ ٱلۡقُدُّوسِ ٱلۡعَزِيزِ ٱلۡحَكِيمِ 1

1        Whatsoever is in the heavens and on the earth glorifies Allah, the Sovereign (of all things), the Holy, the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.

هُوَ ٱلَّذِي بَعَثَ فِي ٱلۡأُمِّيِّ‍ۧنَ رَسُولٗا مِّنۡهُمۡ يَتۡلُواْ عَلَيۡهِمۡ ءَايَٰتِهِۦ وَيُزَكِّيهِمۡ وَيُعَلِّمُهُمُ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ وَٱلۡحِكۡمَةَ وَإِن كَانُواْ مِن قَبۡلُ لَفِي ضَلَٰلٖ مُّبِينٖ 2

2        He sent among the illiterate (Arabs) a messenger [Muhammad (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him)] from among themselves who recites to them His Verses and purifies them (from disbelief, and poor manners) and teaches them the Quran and Wisdom (i.e. Sunnah). And, indeed, before this, they were in an obvious ignorance.

وَءَاخَرِينَ مِنۡهُمۡ لَمَّا يَلۡحَقُواْ بِهِمۡۚ وَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلۡحَكِيمُ 3

3        And [Allah also sent Prophet Muhammad (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) to] others among them (who will embrace Islam and will join them) although they have not joined them yet. (Since they are not born yet or some who have not embraced Islam yet). And Allah is the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.
