Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo ittaqoo Allaha wakoonoo maAAa alssadiqeena\n119. O ye who believe! Fear God\n And be with those\n Who are true (in word and deed).\n120. Ma kana li-ahli almadeenati waman hawlahum mina al-aAArabi an yatakhallafoo AAan rasooli Allahi wala yarghaboo bi-anfusihim AAan nafsihi thalika bi-annahum la yuseebuhum thamaon wala nasabun wala makhmasatun fee sabeeli Allahi wala yataoona mawti-an yagheethu alkuffara wala yanaloona min AAaduwwin naylan illa kutiba lahum bihi AAamalun salihun inna Allaha la yudeeAAu ajra almuhsineena\n120. It was not fitting\n For the people of Medina\n And the Bedouin Arabs\n Of the neighbourhood, to refuse\n To follow God's Apostle,\n Nor to prefer their own lives\n To his: because nothing\n Could they suffer or do,\n But was reckoned to their credit\n As a deed of righteousness,\u2014\n Whether they suffered thirst,\n Or fatigue, or hunger, in the Cause\n Of God, or trod paths\n To raise the ire of the Unbelievers,\n Or received any injury\nWhatever from an enemy:\n For God suffereth not\n The reward to be lost\n Of those who do good;\u2014\n121. Wala yunfiqoona nafaqatan sagheeratan wala kabeeratan wala yaqtaAAoona wadiyan illa kutiba lahum liyajziyahumu Allahu ahsana ma kanoo yaAAmaloona\n121.\n122. Wama kana almu/minoona liyanfiroo kaffatan falawla nafara min kulli firqatin minhum ta-ifatun liyatafaqqahoo fee alddeeni waliyunthiroo qawmahum itha rajaAAoo ilayhim laAAallahum yahtharoona\n122. Nor should the Believers\n All go forth together:\n If a contingent\n From every expedition\n Remained behind,\n They could devote themselves\n To studies in religion,\n And admonish the people\n When they return to them,\u2014\n That thus they (may learn)\n To guard themselves (against evil)","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra IX.: Tauba (Repentance) or Bar\u0101at (Immunity).: Section 15 (119-122)","type":"page"}
