سَيَقولُ لَكَ المُخَلَّفونَ مِنَ الأَعرابِ شَغَلَتنا أَموالُنا وَأَهلونا فَاستَغفِر لَنا ۚ يَقولونَ بِأَلسِنَتِهِم ما لَيسَ في قُلوبِهِم ۚ قُل فَمَن يَملِكُ لَكُم مِنَ اللَّهِ شَيئًا إِن أَرادَ بِكُم ضَرًّا أَو أَرادَ بِكُم نَفعًا ۚ بَل كانَ اللَّهُ بِما تَعمَلونَ خَبيرًا
The Desert Arabs who remained behind will say to you, “Our properties and our families occupied us, so seek forgiveness for us.” They say with their tongues what is not in their hearts. Say, “Who can protect you from God if He intends harm or benefit for you?” God is fully informed of what you do.
بَل ظَنَنتُم أَن لَن يَنقَلِبَ الرَّسولُ وَالمُؤمِنونَ إِلىٰ أَهليهِم أَبَدًا وَزُيِّنَ ذٰلِكَ في قُلوبِكُم وَظَنَنتُم ظَنَّ السَّوءِ وَكُنتُم قَومًا بورًا
You assumed that the Messenger and the believers would not return to their families, which delighted your hearts. You harbored malicious thoughts, and thus, became doomed people.
وَمَن لَم يُؤمِن بِاللَّهِ وَرَسولِهِ فَإِنّا أَعتَدنا لِلكافِرينَ سَعيرًا
Those who reject God and His Messenger—We’ve prepared a blazing fire for the unbelievers.
وَلِلَّهِ مُلكُ السَّماواتِ وَالأَرضِ ۚ يَغفِرُ لِمَن يَشاءُ وَيُعَذِّبُ مَن يَشاءُ ۚ وَكانَ اللَّهُ غَفورًا رَحيمًا
To God belongs the sovereignty of the heavens and the earth. He forgives whom He wills, and He punishes whom He wills. God is All-Forgiving and Merciful.
سَيَقولُ المُخَلَّفونَ إِذَا انطَلَقتُم إِلىٰ مَغانِمَ لِتَأخُذوها ذَرونا نَتَّبِعكُم ۖ يُريدونَ أَن يُبَدِّلوا كَلامَ اللَّهِ ۚ قُل لَن تَتَّبِعونا كَذٰلِكُم قالَ اللَّهُ مِن قَبلُ ۖ فَسَيَقولونَ بَل تَحسُدونَنا ۚ بَل كانوا لا يَفقَهونَ إِلّا قَليلًا
When you set out to collect the gains, those who had lagged said, “Allow us to accompany you.” They wish to change God’s words. Say, “You won’t accompany us; God has already decreed this.” Then they will say, “You are jealous of us.” But in reality, they understand very little.
قُل لِلمُخَلَّفينَ مِنَ الأَعرابِ سَتُدعَونَ إِلىٰ قَومٍ أُولي بَأسٍ شَديدٍ تُقاتِلونَهُم أَو يُسلِمونَ ۖ فَإِن تُطيعوا يُؤتِكُمُ اللَّهُ أَجرًا حَسَنًا ۖ وَإِن تَتَوَلَّوا كَما تَوَلَّيتُم مِن قَبلُ يُعَذِّبكُم عَذابًا أَليمًا
Tell the Desert Arabs who stayed behind, “You will be called to a people of great warfare; you will fight them, unless they surrender. If you obey, God will grant you generous compensation. But if you turn away, as you did previously, He will inflict a severe punishment upon you.”
لَيسَ عَلَى الأَعمىٰ حَرَجٌ وَلا عَلَى الأَعرَجِ حَرَجٌ وَلا عَلَى المَريضِ حَرَجٌ ۗ وَمَن يُطِعِ اللَّهَ وَرَسولَهُ يُدخِلهُ جَنّاتٍ تَجري مِن تَحتِهَا الأَنهارُ ۖ وَمَن يَتَوَلَّ يُعَذِّبهُ عَذابًا أَليمًا
There is no blame for the blind, nor any blame for the lame, nor any blame for the sick. Whoever obeys God and His Messenger: He will admit him into Gardens through which rivers flow. But whoever turns away, He will inflict upon him a painful punishment.
لَقَد رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنِ المُؤمِنينَ إِذ يُبايِعونَكَ تَحتَ الشَّجَرَةِ فَعَلِمَ ما في قُلوبِهِم فَأَنزَلَ السَّكينَةَ عَلَيهِم وَأَثابَهُم فَتحًا قَريبًا
God was pleased with the believers when they pledged their allegiance to you beneath the tree. He knew what was in their hearts, so He sent tranquility down upon them, and He rewarded them with a near victory.
وَمَغانِمَ كَثيرَةً يَأخُذونَها ۗ وَكانَ اللَّهُ عَزيزًا حَكيمًا
Furthermore, they were destined to seize abundant gains. God is Mighty and Wise.
وَعَدَكُمُ اللَّهُ مَغانِمَ كَثيرَةً تَأخُذونَها فَعَجَّلَ لَكُم هـٰذِهِ وَكَفَّ أَيدِيَ النّاسِ عَنكُم وَلِتَكونَ آيَةً لِلمُؤمِنينَ وَيَهدِيَكُم صِراطًا مُستَقيمًا
God has promised you numerous spoils that you will acquire, and He expedited this for you, restraining people’s hands from you, serving as a sign for the believers, and to guide you along a straight path.
وَأُخرىٰ لَم تَقدِروا عَلَيها قَد أَحاطَ اللَّهُ بِها ۚ وَكانَ اللَّهُ عَلىٰ كُلِّ شَيءٍ قَديرًا
There are others that you couldn’t reach, but God encompassed them. God has power over everything.
