Qul lillatheena kafaroo in yantahoo yughfar lahum ma qad salafa wa-in yaAAoodoo faqad madat sunnatu al-awwaleena\n38. Say to the Unbelievers,\n If (now) they desist (from Unbelief),\n Their past would be forgiven them;\n But if they persist, the punishment\n Of those before them is already\n (A matter of warning for them).\n39. Waqatiloohum hatta la takoona fitnatun wayakoona alddeenu kulluhu lillahi fa-ini intahaw fa-inna Allaha bima yaAAmaloona baseerun\n39. And fight them on\n Until there is no more\n Tumult or oppression,\n And there prevail\n Justice and faith in God\n Altogether and everywhere;\n But if they cease, verily God\n Doth see all that they do.\n40. Wa-in tawallaw faiAAlamoo anna Allaha mawlakum niAAma almawla waniAAma alnnaseeru\n40. If they refuse, be sure\n That God is your Protector\u2014\n The Best to protect\n And the Best to help.\n41. WaiAAlamoo annama ghanimtum min shay-in faanna lillahi khumusahu walilrrasooli walithee alqurba waalyatama waalmasakeeni waibni alssabeeli in kuntum amantum biAllahi wama anzalna AAala AAabdina yawma alfurqani yawma iltaqa aljamAAani waAllahu AAala kulli shay-in qadeerun\n41. And know that out of\n All the booty that ye\n May acquire (in war),\n A fifth share is assigned\n To God,\u2014and to the Apostle,\n And to near relatives,\n Orphans, the needy,\n And the wayfarer,\n If ye do believe in God\n And in the revelation\n We sent down to Our Servant\n On the Day of Testing,\u2014\n The Day of the meeting\n Of the two forces.\n For God hath power\n Over all things.\n42. Ith antum bialAAudwati alddunya wahum bialAAudwati alquswa waalrrakbu asfala minkum walaw tawaAAadtum laikhtalaftum fee almeeAAadi walakin liyaqdiya Allahu amran kana mafAAoolan liyahlika man halaka AAan bayyinatin wayahya man hayya AAan bayyinatin wa-inna Allaha lasameeAAun AAaleemun\n42. Remember ye were\n On the hither side\n Of the valley, and they\n On the farther side,\n And the caravan\n On lower ground than ye.\n Even if ye had made\n A mutual appointment\n To meet, ye would certainly:\n Have failed in the appointment:\nBut (thus ye met),\n That God might accomplish\n A matter already enacted;\n That those who died might\n Die after a clear Sign\n (Had been given), and those who lived\n Might live after a Clear Sign\n (Had been given). And verily\n God is He who heareth\n And knoweth (all things).\n43. Ith yureekahumu Allahu fee manamika qaleelan walaw arakahum katheeran lafashiltum walatanazaAAtum fee al-amri walakinna Allaha sallama innahu AAaleemun bithati alssudoori\n43. Remember in thy dream\n God showed them to thee\n As few: if He had shown\n Them to thee as many,\n Ye would surely have been\n Discouraged, and ye would\n Surely have disputed\n In (your) decision: but God\n Saved (you): for He knoweth\n Well the (secrets) of (all) hearts.\n44. Wa-ith yureekumoohum ithi iltaqaytum fee aAAyunikum qaleelan wayuqallilukum fee aAAyunihim liyaqdiya Allahu amran kana mafAAoolan wa-ila Allahi turjaAAu al-omooru\n44. And remember when ye met,\n He showed them to you\n As few in your eyes,\n And He made you appear\n As contemptible in their eyes:\n That God might accomplish\n A matter already enacted.\n For to God do all questions\n Go back (for decision).","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra VIII.: Anf\u0101l, or the Spoils of ...","type":"page"}
