الَّذينَ أُخرِجوا مِن دِيارِهِم بِغَيرِ حَقٍّ إِلّا أَن يَقولوا رَبُّنَا اللَّهُ ۗ وَلَولا دَفعُ اللَّهِ النّاسَ بَعضَهُم بِبَعضٍ لَهُدِّمَت صَوامِعُ وَبِيَعٌ وَصَلَواتٌ وَمَساجِدُ يُذكَرُ فيهَا اسمُ اللَّهِ كَثيرًا ۗ وَلَيَنصُرَنَّ اللَّهُ مَن يَنصُرُهُ ۗ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَقَوِيٌّ عَزيزٌ

Those who were unjustly evicted from their homes, simply for saying, “Our Lord is God.” Had God not repelled some people by means of others, numerous monasteries, churches, synagogues, and mosques, where God’s name is frequently invoked, would’ve been demolished. God will support those who support His cause. God is Powerful and Mighty.

الَّذينَ إِن مَكَّنّاهُم فِي الأَرضِ أَقامُوا الصَّلاةَ وَآتَوُا الزَّكاةَ وَأَمَروا بِالمَعروفِ وَنَهَوا عَنِ المُنكَرِ ۗ وَلِلَّهِ عاقِبَةُ الأُمورِ

Those who, when We empower them on earth, establish prayer, give charity, promote what’s right, and forbid what’s wrong. The final decision in all matters belongs to God.

وَإِن يُكَذِّبوكَ فَقَد كَذَّبَت قَبلَهُم قَومُ نوحٍ وَعادٌ وَثَمودُ

If they reject you, so before them, the people of Noah and Aad and Thamud had rejected.

وَقَومُ إِبراهيمَ وَقَومُ لوطٍ

And the people of Abraham, and the people of Lot.

وَأَصحابُ مَديَنَ ۖ وَكُذِّبَ موسىٰ فَأَملَيتُ لِلكافِرينَ ثُمَّ أَخَذتُهُم ۖ فَكَيفَ كانَ نَكيرِ

And the inhabitants of Midian. Moses, too, was accused of lying. I granted delay to the unbelievers, then I seized them. So how terrible was My condemnation?

أَفَلَم يَسيروا فِي الأَرضِ فَتَكونَ لَهُم قُلوبٌ يَعقِلونَ بِها أَو آذانٌ يَسمَعونَ بِها ۖ فَإِنَّها لا تَعمَى الأَبصارُ وَلـٰكِن تَعمَى القُلوبُ الَّتي فِي الصُّدورِ

Didn’t they travel through the earth and use their intellect to understand, and their ears to listen? It’s not the eyes that go blind, but it’s the hearts in the chests that do.

وَيَستَعجِلونَكَ بِالعَذابِ وَلَن يُخلِفَ اللَّهُ وَعدَهُ ۚ وَإِنَّ يَومًا عِندَ رَبِّكَ كَأَلفِ سَنَةٍ مِمّا تَعُدّونَ

They challenge you to hasten the punishment, but God will never fail in His promise. A day with your Lord is like a thousand years by your calculations.

وَكَأَيِّن مِن قَريَةٍ أَملَيتُ لَها وَهِيَ ظالِمَةٌ ثُمَّ أَخَذتُها وَإِلَيَّ المَصيرُ

And how many a town did I prolong while it was committing wrong? To Me is the ultimate return.

قُل يا أَيُّهَا النّاسُ إِنَّما أَنا لَكُم نَذيرٌ مُبينٌ

Say, “O people, I am only a clear warner to you.”

فَالَّذينَ آمَنوا وَعَمِلُوا الصّالِحاتِ لَهُم مَغفِرَةٌ وَرِزقٌ كَريمٌ

Those who believe and perform righteous deeds will receive forgiveness and a generous reward.
