Wajaa almuAAaththiroona mina al-aAArabi liyu/thana lahum waqaAAada allatheena kathaboo Allaha warasoolahu sayuseebu allatheena kafaroo minhum AAathabun aleemun\n90. And there were, among\n The desert Arabs (also),\n Men who made excuses\n And came to claim exemption;\n And those who were false\n To God and His Apostle\n (Merely) sat inactive.\n Soon will a grievous penalty\n Seize the Unbelievers\n Among them.\n91. Laysa AAala aldduAAafa-i wala AAala almarda wala AAala allatheena la yajidoona ma yunfiqoona harajun itha nasahoo lillahi warasoolihi ma AAala almuhsineena min sabeelin waAllahu ghafoorun raheemun\n91. There is no blame\n On those who are infirm,\nOr ill, or who find\n No resources to spend\n (On the Cause), if they\n Are sincere (in duty) to God\n And His Apostle:\n No ground (of complaint)\n Can there be against such\n As do right: and God\n Is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.\n92. Wala AAala allatheena itha ma atawka litahmilahum qulta la ajidu ma ahmilukum AAalayhi tawallaw waaAAyunuhum tafeedu mina alddamAAi hazanan alla yajidoo ma yunfiqoona\n92. Nor (is there blame)\n On those who came to thee\n To be provided with mounts,\n And when thou saidst,\n \"I can find no mounts\n For you, \"they turned back,\n Their eyes streaming with tears\n Of grief that they had\n No resources wherewith\n To provide the expenses.\n93. Innama alssabeelu AAala allatheena yasta/thinoonaka wahum aghniyao radoo bi-an yakoonoo maAAa alkhawalifi watabaAAa Allahu AAala quloobihim fahum la yaAAlamoona\n93. The ground (of complaint)\n Is against such as claim\n Exemption while they are rich.\n They prefer to stay\n With the (women) who remain\n Behind: God hath sealed\n Their hearts; so they know not\n (What they miss).\n94. YaAAtathiroona ilaykum itha rajaAAtum ilayhim qul la taAAtathiroo lan nu/mina lakum qad nabbaana Allahu min akhbarikum wasayara Allahu AAamalakum warasooluhu thumma turaddoona ila AAalimi alghaybi waalshshahadati fayunabbi-okum bima kuntum taAAmaloona\n94. They will present their excuses\n To you when ye return\n To them. Say thou: \"Present\n No excuses: we shall not\n Believe you: God hath already\n Informed us of the true state\n Of matters concerning you:\n It is your actions that God\n And His Apostle will observe:\n In the end will ye\n Be brought back to Him\n Who knoweth what is hidden\n And what is open:\n Then will He show you\n The truth of all\n That ye did.\"\n95. Sayahlifoona biAllahi lakum itha inqalabtum ilayhim lituAAridoo AAanhum faaAAridoo AAanhum innahum rijsun wama/wahum jahannamu jazaan bima kanoo yaksiboona\n95. They will swear to you by God,\n When ye return to them,\n That ye may leave them alone.\n So leave them alone:\n For they are an abomination,\n And Hell is their dwelling-place,\u2014\n A fitting recompense\n For the (evil) that they did.\n96. Yahlifoona lakum litardaw AAanhum fa-in tardaw AAanhum fa-inna Allaha la yarda AAani alqawmi alfasiqeena\n96. They will swear unto you,\n That ye may be pleased with them,\n But if ye are pleased with them,\n God is not pleased\n With those who disobey.\n97. Al-aAArabu ashaddu kufran wanifaqan waajdaru alla yaAAlamoo hudooda ma anzala Allahu AAala rasoolihi waAllahu AAaleemun hakeemun\n97. The Arabs of the desert\n Are the worst in unbelief\n And hypocrisy, and most fitted\n To be in ignorance\n Of the command which God\n Hath sent down to His Apostle:\n But God is All-Knowing,\n All-Wise.\n98. Wamina al-aAArabi man yattakhithu ma yunfiqu maghraman wayatarabbasu bikumu alddawa-ira AAalayhim da-iratu alssaw-i waAllahu sameeAAun AAaleemun\n98. Some of the desert Arabs\n Look upon their payments\nAs a fine, and watch\n For disasters for you: on them\n Be the disaster of Evil:\n For God is He that heareth\n And knoweth (all things).\n99. Wamina al-aAArabi man yu/minu biAllahi waalyawmi al-akhiri wayattakhithu ma yunfiqu qurubatin AAinda Allahi wasalawati alrrasooli ala innaha qurbatun lahum sayudkhiluhumu Allahu fee rahmatihi inna Allaha ghafoorun raheemun\n99. But some of the desert Arabs\n Believe in God and the Last Day,\n And look on their payments\n As pious gifts bringing them\n Nearer to God and obtaining\n The prayers of the Apostle.\n Aye, indeed they bring them\n Nearer (to Him): soon will God\n Admit them to His Mercy:\n For God is Oft-Forgiving,\n Most Merciful.","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra IX.: Tauba (Repentance) or Bar\u0101at (Immunity).: Section 12 (90-99)","type":"page"}
