إِنَّما كانَ قَولَ المُؤمِنينَ إِذا دُعوا إِلَى اللَّهِ وَرَسولِهِ لِيَحكُمَ بَينَهُم أَن يَقولوا سَمِعنا وَأَطَعنا ۚ وَأُولـٰئِكَ هُمُ المُفلِحونَ
When called upon by God and His Messenger to settle their disputes, the believers respond, saying, “We heard, and we obeyed.” These are the ones who will prosper.
وَمَن يُطِعِ اللَّهَ وَرَسولَهُ وَيَخشَ اللَّهَ وَيَتَّقهِ فَأُولـٰئِكَ هُمُ الفائِزونَ
Those who obey God and His Messenger, who fear God and are mindful of Him, are the successful ones.
وَأَقسَموا بِاللَّهِ جَهدَ أَيمانِهِم لَئِن أَمَرتَهُم لَيَخرُجُنَّ ۖ قُل لا تُقسِموا ۖ طاعَةٌ مَعروفَةٌ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ خَبيرٌ بِما تَعمَلونَ
They swear solemnly by God that they would mobilize if you were to command them. Say, “Don’t swear; true obedience will be recognized. God is fully aware of what you do.”
قُل أَطيعُوا اللَّهَ وَأَطيعُوا الرَّسولَ ۖ فَإِن تَوَلَّوا فَإِنَّما عَلَيهِ ما حُمِّلَ وَعَلَيكُم ما حُمِّلتُم ۖ وَإِن تُطيعوهُ تَهتَدوا ۚ وَما عَلَى الرَّسولِ إِلَّا البَلاغُ المُبينُ
Say, “Obey God and obey the Messenger.” But if they turn away, he is accountable for his duty, and you are accountable for yours. If you obey, you will be guided. It is only incumbent upon the Messenger to deliver the clear message.
وَعَدَ اللَّهُ الَّذينَ آمَنوا مِنكُم وَعَمِلُوا الصّالِحاتِ لَيَستَخلِفَنَّهُم فِي الأَرضِ كَمَا استَخلَفَ الَّذينَ مِن قَبلِهِم وَلَيُمَكِّنَنَّ لَهُم دينَهُمُ الَّذِي ارتَضىٰ لَهُم وَلَيُبَدِّلَنَّهُم مِن بَعدِ خَوفِهِم أَمنًا ۚ يَعبُدونَني لا يُشرِكونَ بي شَيئًا ۚ وَمَن كَفَرَ بَعدَ ذٰلِكَ فَأُولـٰئِكَ هُمُ الفاسِقونَ
God promises those among you who believe and do good deeds that He will grant them sovereignty on earth, as He did to those before them. And He will establish for them their religion, which He has preferred for them, and replace their fear with security. They will worship Me alone, not associating anything with Me. However, those who disbelieve after this—these are the sinful.
وَأَقيمُوا الصَّلاةَ وَآتُوا الزَّكاةَ وَأَطيعُوا الرَّسولَ لَعَلَّكُم تُرحَمونَ
Establish prayer, give charity, and obey the Messenger, so that you may receive mercy.
لا تَحسَبَنَّ الَّذينَ كَفَروا مُعجِزينَ فِي الأَرضِ ۚ وَمَأواهُمُ النّارُ ۖ وَلَبِئسَ المَصيرُ
Don’t think that those who disbelieve can escape on earth. Their final abode is the Fire—a terrible destination.
يا أَيُّهَا الَّذينَ آمَنوا لِيَستَأذِنكُمُ الَّذينَ مَلَكَت أَيمانُكُم وَالَّذينَ لَم يَبلُغُوا الحُلُمَ مِنكُم ثَلاثَ مَرّاتٍ ۚ مِن قَبلِ صَلاةِ الفَجرِ وَحينَ تَضَعونَ ثِيابَكُم مِنَ الظَّهيرَةِ وَمِن بَعدِ صَلاةِ العِشاءِ ۚ ثَلاثُ عَوراتٍ لَكُم ۚ لَيسَ عَلَيكُم وَلا عَلَيهِم جُناحٌ بَعدَهُنَّ ۚ طَوّافونَ عَلَيكُم بَعضُكُم عَلىٰ بَعضٍ ۚ كَذٰلِكَ يُبَيِّنُ اللَّهُ لَكُمُ الآياتِ ۗ وَاللَّهُ عَليمٌ حَكيمٌ
O you who believe, let your dependents and those who haven’t reached puberty ask for permission in three instances: before the dawn prayer, when you undress at noon, and after the evening prayer. These are three occasions of privacy for you. At other times, it’s not improper for you or them to move about freely, mingling with each other. Thus, God clarifies His verses for you. God is All-Knowing, Most Wise.
وَإِذا بَلَغَ الأَطفالُ مِنكُمُ الحُلُمَ فَليَستَأذِنوا كَمَا استَأذَنَ الَّذينَ مِن قَبلِهِم ۚ كَذٰلِكَ يُبَيِّنُ اللَّهُ لَكُم آياتِهِ ۗ وَاللَّهُ عَليمٌ حَكيمٌ
When your children reach puberty, they must also ask for permission, as those before them did. Thus, God makes His commandments clear to you. God is All-Knowing, Most Wise.
وَالقَواعِدُ مِنَ النِّساءِ اللّاتي لا يَرجونَ نِكاحًا فَلَيسَ عَلَيهِنَّ جُناحٌ أَن يَضَعنَ ثِيابَهُنَّ غَيرَ مُتَبَرِّجاتٍ بِزينَةٍ ۖ وَأَن يَستَعفِفنَ خَيرٌ لَهُنَّ ۗ وَاللَّهُ سَميعٌ عَليمٌ
Elderly women who are past the prospect of marriage can relax their dress code, provided they don’t flaunt their beauty. However, it’s better for them to maintain modesty. God is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.
لَيسَ عَلَى الأَعمىٰ حَرَجٌ وَلا عَلَى الأَعرَجِ حَرَجٌ وَلا عَلَى المَريضِ حَرَجٌ وَلا عَلىٰ أَنفُسِكُم أَن تَأكُلوا مِن بُيوتِكُم أَو بُيوتِ آبائِكُم أَو بُيوتِ أُمَّهاتِكُم أَو بُيوتِ إِخوانِكُم أَو بُيوتِ أَخَواتِكُم أَو بُيوتِ أَعمامِكُم أَو بُيوتِ عَمّاتِكُم أَو بُيوتِ أَخوالِكُم أَو بُيوتِ خالاتِكُم أَو ما مَلَكتُم مَفاتِحَهُ أَو صَديقِكُم ۚ لَيسَ عَلَيكُم جُناحٌ أَن تَأكُلوا جَميعًا أَو أَشتاتًا ۚ فَإِذا دَخَلتُم بُيوتًا فَسَلِّموا عَلىٰ أَنفُسِكُم تَحِيَّةً مِن عِندِ اللَّهِ مُبارَكَةً طَيِّبَةً ۚ كَذٰلِكَ يُبَيِّنُ اللَّهُ لَكُمُ الآياتِ لَعَلَّكُم تَعقِلونَ
There is no blame on the blind, the disabled, the sick, nor upon yourselves if you eat in your own houses, or the houses of your fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, paternal uncles and aunts, maternal uncles and aunts, or in houses whose keys you possess, or in your friends’ houses. There is no blame upon you whether you eat together or separately. When you enter houses, greet each other with a greeting blessed and pure from God. Thus, God clarifies His revelations to you, so you may understand.
