Order in Al-Mushaf : 8
Ayah number : 41
۞وَٱعۡلَمُوٓاْ أَنَّمَا غَنِمۡتُم مِّن شَيۡءٖ فَأَنَّ لِلَّهِ خُمُسَهُۥ وَلِلرَّسُولِ وَلِذِي ٱلۡقُرۡبَىٰ وَٱلۡيَتَٰمَىٰ وَٱلۡمَسَٰكِينِ وَٱبۡنِ ٱلسَّبِيلِ إِن كُنتُمۡ ءَامَنتُم بِٱللَّهِ وَمَآ أَنزَلۡنَا عَلَىٰ عَبۡدِنَا يَوۡمَ ٱلۡفُرۡقَانِ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡتَقَى ٱلۡجَمۡعَانِۗ وَٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيۡءٖ قَدِيرٌ 41
41 And know that one fifth of any booty gained is for Allah and His messenger, and for the orphans and the needy and the wayfarer, if you believe in Allah and what We have sent down to Our obedient servant on the Day of criterion, the Day when two armies met (in the battle of Badr); and Allah is Able to do all things.
Ayah number : 42
إِذۡ أَنتُم بِٱلۡعُدۡوَةِ ٱلدُّنۡيَا وَهُم بِٱلۡعُدۡوَةِ ٱلۡقُصۡوَىٰ وَٱلرَّكۡبُ أَسۡفَلَ مِنكُمۡۚ وَلَوۡ تَوَاعَدتُّمۡ لَٱخۡتَلَفۡتُمۡ فِي ٱلۡمِيعَٰدِ وَلَٰكِن لِّيَقۡضِيَ ٱللَّهُ أَمۡرٗا كَانَ مَفۡعُولٗا لِّيَهۡلِكَ مَنۡ هَلَكَ عَنۢ بَيِّنَةٖ وَيَحۡيَىٰ مَنۡ حَيَّ عَنۢ بَيِّنَةٖۗ وَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَسَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ 42
42 Remember when you (the Muslim forces) were on the near end of the valley and enemy forces were on the farthest end, and the caravan was on the lower ground than you. And if two armies had a mutual appointment (to meet each other), one of them would have broken its promise. (But Allah created circum-stances in which both armies met) so that Allah does accomplish a matter already ordained by Him, in order that those who were to be killed, might be killed after a clear evidence, and those who were to live, might live after a clear evidence. And, indeed, Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower.
Ayah number : 43
إِذۡ يُرِيكَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ فِي مَنَامِكَ قَلِيلٗاۖ وَلَوۡ أَرَىٰكَهُمۡ كَثِيرٗا لَّفَشِلۡتُمۡ وَلَتَنَٰزَعۡتُمۡ فِي ٱلۡأَمۡرِ وَلَٰكِنَّ ٱللَّهَ سَلَّمَۚ إِنَّهُۥ عَلِيمُۢ بِذَاتِ ٱلصُّدُورِ 43
43
Ayah number : 44
وَإِذۡ يُرِيكُمُوهُمۡ إِذِ ٱلۡتَقَيۡتُمۡ فِيٓ أَعۡيُنِكُمۡ قَلِيلٗا وَيُقَلِّلُكُمۡ فِيٓ أَعۡيُنِهِمۡ لِيَقۡضِيَ ٱللَّهُ أَمۡرٗا كَانَ مَفۡعُولٗاۗ وَإِلَى ٱللَّهِ تُرۡجَعُ ٱلۡأُمُورُ 44
44 Remember when Allah showed enemies as few in number in your [Muhammad’s ( may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him )] dream. Had he shown you large in num-ber you would have been definitely discouraged, and you would surely have disputed among yourselves about this matter. But Allah saved you [from having these differences. Allah saved Muslims from this tor-ture through the dream of Prophet Muhammad ( may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him )]. Indeed, Allah is All-Knower of what is in the breasts. And remember (during the actual battle of Badr) Allah showed the enemy to you as few in your eyes and Allah made you appear also few in the enemy’s eyes108, so that Allah does accomplish a matter already ordained. And all affairs do return to Allah (for reward or punishment).
Ayah number : 45
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ إِذَا لَقِيتُمۡ فِئَةٗ فَٱثۡبُتُواْ وَٱذۡكُرُواْ ٱللَّهَ كَثِيرٗا لَّعَلَّكُمۡ تُفۡلِحُونَ 45
45 (Here Muslims are taught etiquettes of war). O you who believe! When you come across an enemy force, remain steadfast and engage yourself in remembrance of Allah a lot so that you may be successful.
Ayah number : 46
وَأَطِيعُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ وَلَا تَنَٰزَعُواْ فَتَفۡشَلُواْ وَتَذۡهَبَ رِيحُكُمۡۖ وَٱصۡبِرُوٓاْۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ مَعَ ٱلصَّٰبِرِينَ 46
46 And obey Allah, and His messenger, and don’t quarrel with one another lest you become coward and also mess up your impression on others. And be patient (in case of difficulties). Indeed, Allah is with those who are patient.
Ayah number : 47
وَلَا تَكُونُواْ كَٱلَّذِينَ خَرَجُواْ مِن دِيَٰرِهِم بَطَرٗا وَرِئَآءَ ٱلنَّاسِ وَيَصُدُّونَ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِۚ وَٱللَّهُ بِمَا يَعۡمَلُونَ مُحِيطٞ 47
47 And don’t be like those who came out of their homes boastfully, while showing off to people and hindering them from the path of Allah. And Allah encompasses whatever they were doing.
Ayah number : 48
وَإِذۡ زَيَّنَ لَهُمُ ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنُ أَعۡمَٰلَهُمۡ وَقَالَ لَا غَالِبَ لَكُمُ ٱلۡيَوۡمَ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ وَإِنِّي جَارٞ لَّكُمۡۖ فَلَمَّا تَرَآءَتِ ٱلۡفِئَتَانِ نَكَصَ عَلَىٰ عَقِبَيۡهِ وَقَالَ إِنِّي بَرِيٓءٞ مِّنكُمۡ إِنِّيٓ أَرَىٰ مَا لَا تَرَوۡنَ إِنِّيٓ أَخَافُ ٱللَّهَۚ وَٱللَّهُ شَدِيدُ ٱلۡعِقَابِ 48
48 And (remember) when Satan made the (evil) deeds of disbelievers attractive to them and said: “No one will be able to overcome you this Day and, indeed, I am your supporter.” But when the two armies came in sight of each other, Satan ran back on his heels and said: “Verily, I have nothing to do with you. Indeed, I see what you don’t see. Indeed, I fear Allah, since Allah is Severe in punishment.”
Ayah number : 49
إِذۡ يَقُولُ ٱلۡمُنَٰفِقُونَ وَٱلَّذِينَ فِي قُلُوبِهِم مَّرَضٌ غَرَّ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ دِينُهُمۡۗ وَمَن يَتَوَكَّلۡ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٞ 49
49 When the hypocrites and those who had disease (of disbelief) in their hearts were saying: “These Muslims are deceived by their religion.” But whoever puts his trust in Allah, then, indeed, Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise.
Ayah number : 50
وَلَوۡ تَرَىٰٓ إِذۡ يَتَوَفَّى ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ يَضۡرِبُونَ وُجُوهَهُمۡ وَأَدۡبَٰرَهُمۡ وَذُوقُواْ عَذَابَ ٱلۡحَرِيقِ 50
50 And if you could see how angels take away the souls of disbelievers, hitting them on their faces and backs, (saying): “Taste the punishment of the blazing Fire.” (Also Surah Al-Anam:93)
Ayah number : 51
ذَٰلِكَ بِمَا قَدَّمَتۡ أَيۡدِيكُمۡ وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَيۡسَ بِظَلَّٰمٖ لِّلۡعَبِيدِ 51
51 This (punishment) is due to your deeds sent forward by your hands. And, indeed, Allah is not unjust to (His) slaves.
Ayah number : 52
كَدَأۡبِ ءَالِ فِرۡعَوۡنَ وَٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِهِمۡۚ كَفَرُواْ بَِٔايَٰتِ ٱللَّهِ فَأَخَذَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ بِذُنُوبِهِمۡۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ قَوِيّٞ شَدِيدُ ٱلۡعِقَابِ 52
52 (Allah does not punish without a crime). Hence the condition of these disbelievers is similar to the condition of the followers of Firaun and other disbelievers who passed before them. They rejected the revelations of Allah, so Allah punished them due to their sins. Indeed, Allah is All-Strong, Severe in punishment.
Ayah number : 53
ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَمۡ يَكُ مُغَيِّرٗا نِّعۡمَةً أَنۡعَمَهَا عَلَىٰ قَوۡمٍ حَتَّىٰ يُغَيِّرُواْ مَا بِأَنفُسِهِمۡ وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٞ 53
53 (Rule of Allah is that) Allah does not remove His Favour bestowed upon a nation until the people of that nation change their deeds (i.e. commit sins). And, indeed, Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower.
Ayah number : 54
كَدَأۡبِ ءَالِ فِرۡعَوۡنَ وَٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِهِمۡۚ كَذَّبُواْ بَِٔايَٰتِ رَبِّهِمۡ فَأَهۡلَكۡنَٰهُم بِذُنُوبِهِمۡ وَأَغۡرَقۡنَآ ءَالَ فِرۡعَوۡنَۚ وَكُلّٞ كَانُواْ ظَٰلِمِينَ 54
54 The condition of these dis-believers is similar to the condition of the followers of Firaun and the other disbelievers who passed before them. They denied the revelations of Allah, so We killed them due to their sins and We drowned the people of Firaun, and all of them were the wrong-doers.
Ayah number : 55
إِنَّ شَرَّ ٱلدَّوَآبِّ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ فَهُمۡ لَا يُؤۡمِنُونَ 55
55 Indeed, the worst of the creatures in the sight of Allah are the disbelievers. Hence they shall never believe.
Ayah number : 56
ٱلَّذِينَ عَٰهَدتَّ مِنۡهُمۡ ثُمَّ يَنقُضُونَ عَهۡدَهُمۡ فِي كُلِّ مَرَّةٖ وَهُمۡ لَا يَتَّقُونَ 56
56 Whenever you make a treaty with them, they break their promise every time, and they don’t fear (Allah).
Ayah number : 57
فَإِمَّا تَثۡقَفَنَّهُمۡ فِي ٱلۡحَرۡبِ فَشَرِّدۡ بِهِم مَّنۡ خَلۡفَهُمۡ لَعَلَّهُمۡ يَذَّكَّرُونَ 57
57 Hence if you overcome them in war, give them an exemplary punishment so that their supporters behind them are also dispersed and they may learn a lesson from it.
Ayah number : 58
وَإِمَّا تَخَافَنَّ مِن قَوۡمٍ خِيَانَةٗ فَٱنۢبِذۡ إِلَيۡهِمۡ عَلَىٰ سَوَآءٍۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ ٱلۡخَآئِنِينَ 58
58 (If disbelievers don’t break the promise openly) But you fear treachery from the disbelievers, then throw back their agreement to them (i.e. do inform them that there is no more mutual agreement in force) so that both parties have same information. (Fighting without con-veying such information is treachery). Indeed, Allah does not like the treacherous (persons).
Ayah number : 59
وَلَا يَحۡسَبَنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ سَبَقُوٓاْۚ إِنَّهُمۡ لَا يُعۡجِزُونَ 59
59 And let not the disbelievers think that they can escape from the punishment. Indeed, they will never be able to suppress.
Ayah number : 60
وَأَعِدُّواْ لَهُم مَّا ٱسۡتَطَعۡتُم مِّن قُوَّةٖ وَمِن رِّبَاطِ ٱلۡخَيۡلِ تُرۡهِبُونَ بِهِۦ عَدُوَّ ٱللَّهِ وَعَدُوَّكُمۡ وَءَاخَرِينَ مِن دُونِهِمۡ لَا تَعۡلَمُونَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ يَعۡلَمُهُمۡۚ وَمَا تُنفِقُواْ مِن شَيۡءٖ فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ يُوَفَّ إِلَيۡكُمۡ وَأَنتُمۡ لَا تُظۡلَمُونَ 60
60 And remain prepared against the disbelievers with whatever armed forces you can, and with strong horses to cause terror to the enemy of Allah and your enemy, and others besides them whom you don’t know, but Allah does know them. Whatsoever you spend in the Path of Allah, it will be repaid to you in full and no injustice will be done to you. (Also Surah Al-Anfal:39)
