Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo in tuteeAAoo allatheena kafaroo yaruddookum AAala aAAqabikum fatanqaliboo khasireena\n149. O ye who believe!\n If ye obey the Unbelievers,\n They will drive you back\n On your heels, and ye\n Will turn back (from Faith)\n To your own loss.\n150. Bali Allahu mawlakum wahuwa khayru alnnasireena\n150. Nay, God is your Protector,\n And He is the best of helpers.\n151. Sanulqee fee quloobi allatheena kafaroo alrruAAba bima ashrakoo biAllahi ma lam yunazzil bihi sultanan wama/wahumu alnnaru wabi/sa mathwa alththalimeena\n151. Soon shall We cast terror\n Into the hearts of the Unbelievers\n For that they joined companions\n With God, for which He had sew\n No authority: their abode\n Will be the Fire: and evil\n Is the home of the wrong-doers!\n152. Walaqad sadaqakumu Allahu waAAdahu ith tahussoonahum bi-ithnihi hatta itha fashiltum watanazaAAtum fee al-amri waAAasaytum min baAAdi ma arakum ma tuhibboona minkum man yureedu alddunya waminkum man yureedu al-akhirata thumma sarafakum AAanhum liyabtaliyakum walaqad AAafa AAankum waAllahu thoo fadlin AAala almu/mineena\n152. God did indeed fulfil\n His promise to you\n When ye with His permission\n Were about to annihilate\n Your enemy,\u2014until ye flinched\n And fell to disputing\n About the order,\n And disobeyed it\n After He brought you in sight\n (Of the Booty) which ye covet.\n Among you are some\n That hanker after this world\n And some that desire\n The Hereafter. Then did He\nDivert you from your foes\n In order to test you.\n But He forgave you:\n For God is full of grace\n To those who believe.\n153. Ith tusAAidoona wala talwoona AAala ahadin waalrrasoolu yadAAookum fee okhrakum faathabakum ghamman bighammin likay la tahzanoo AAala ma fatakum wala ma asabakum waAllahu khabeerun bima taAAmaloona\n153. Behold! ye were climbing up\n The high ground, without even\n Casting a side glance\n At any one, and the Apostle\n In your rear was calling you\n Back. There did God give you\n One distress after another\n By way of requital,\n To teach you not to grieve\n For (the booty) that had escaped you\n And for (the ill) that had befallen you.\n For God is well aware\n Of all that ye do.\n154. Thumma anzala AAalaykum min baAAdi alghammi amanatan nuAAasan yaghsha ta-ifatan minkum wata-ifatun qad ahammat-hum anfusuhum yathunnoona biAllahi ghayra alhaqqi thanna aljahiliyyati yaqooloona hal lana mina al-amri min shay-in qul inna al-amra kullahu lillahi yukhfoona fee anfusihim ma la yubdoona laka yaqooloona law kana lana mina al-amri shay-on ma qutilna hahuna qul law kuntum fee buyootikum labaraza allatheena kutiba AAalayhimu alqatlu ila madajiAAihim waliyabtaliya Allahu ma fee sudoorikum waliyumahhisa ma fee quloobikum waAllahu AAaleemun bithati alssudoori\n154. After (the excitement)\n Of the distress, He sent down\n Calm on a band of you\n Overcome with slumber,\n While another band\n Was stirred to anxiety\n By their own feelings,\n Moved by wrong suspicions\n Of God\u2014suspicions due\n To Ignorance. They said:\n \"What affair is this of ours?\"\n Say thou: \"Indeed, this affair\nIs wholly God's.\" They hide\n In their minds what they\n Dare not reveal to thee.\n They say (to themselves):\n \"If we had had anything\n To do with this affair,\n We should not have been\n In the slaughter here.\"\n Say: \"Even if you had remained\n In your homes, those\n For whom death was decreed\n Would certainly have gone forth\n To the place of their death\";\n But (all this was)\n That God might test\n What is in your breasts\n And purge what is\n In your hearts.\n For God knoweth well\n The secrets of your hearts.\n155. Inna allatheena tawallaw minkum yawma iltaqa aljamAAani innama istazallahumu alshshaytanu bibaAAdi ma kasaboo walaqad AAafa Allahu AAanhum inna Allaha ghafoorun haleemun\n155. Those of you\n Who turned back\n On the day the two hosts\n Met,\u2014it was Satan\n Who caused them to fail,\n Because of some (evil)\n They had done. But God\n Has blotted out (their fault):\n For God is Oft-forgiving,\n Most Forbearing.","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra III.: \u0100l-i-\u2019Imr\u0101n, o...","type":"page"}
