- Al Ahzab Ayah 2وَٱتَّبِعْ مَا يُوحَىٰٓ إِلَيْكَ مِن رَّبِّكَۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ كَانَ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ خَبِيرًا ٢ Follow what is revealed to you from your Lord. Surely Allah is All-Aware of what you ?all? do.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 3وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى ٱللَّهِۚ وَكَفَىٰ بِٱللَّهِ وَكِيلاً ٣ And put your trust in Allah, for Allah is sufficient as a Trustee of Affairs.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 4مَّا جَعَلَ ٱللَّهُ لِرَجُلٍ مِّن قَلْبَيْنِ فِى جَوْفِهِۦۚ وَمَا جَعَلَ أَزْوَٲجَكُمُ ٱلَّــٰٓــِٔى تُظَـٰهِرُونَ مِنْهُنَّ أُمَّهَـٰتِكُمْۚ وَمَا جَعَلَ أَدْعِيَآءَكُمْ أَبْنَآءَكُمْۚ ذَٲلِكُمْ قَوْلُكُم بِأَفْوَٲهِكُمْۖ وَٱللَّهُ يَقُولُ ٱلْحَقَّ وَهُوَ يَهْدِى ٱلسَّبِيلَ ٤ Allah does not place two hearts in any person’s chest. Nor does He regard your wives as ?unlawful for you like? your real mothers, ?even? if you say they are. Nor does He regard your adopted children as your real children. These are only your baseless assertions. But Allah declares the truth, and He ?alone? guides to the ?Right? Way.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 5ٱدْعُوهُمْ لِأَبَآئِهِمْ هُوَ أَقْسَطُ عِندَ ٱللَّهِۚ فَإِن لَّمْ تَعْلَمُوٓاْ ءَابَآءَهُمْ فَإِخْوَٲنُكُمْ فِى ٱلدِّينِ وَمَوَٲلِيكُمْۚ وَلَيْسَ عَلَيْكُمْ جُنَاحٌ فِيمَآ أَخْطَأْتُم بِهِۦ وَلَـٰكِن مَّا تَعَمَّدَتْ قُلُوبُكُمْۚ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ غَفُورًا رَّحِيمًا ٥ Let your adopted children keep their family names. That is more just in the sight of Allah. But if you do not know their fathers, then they are ?simply? your fellow believers and close associates. There is no blame on you for what you do by mistake, but ?only? for what you do intentionally. And Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 6ٱلنَّبِىُّ أَوْلَىٰ بِٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ أَنفُسِهِمْۖ وَأَزْوَٲجُهُۥٓ أُمَّهَـٰتُهُمْۗ وَأُوْلُواْ ٱلْأَرْحَامِ بَعْضُهُمْ أَوْلَىٰ بِبَعْضٍ فِى كِتَـٰبِ ٱللَّهِ مِنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَٱلْمُهَـٰجِرِينَ إِلَّآ أَن تَفْعَلُوٓاْ إِلَىٰٓ أَوْلِيَآئِكُم مَّعْرُوفًاۚ كَانَ ذَٲلِكَ فِى ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ مَسْطُورًا ٦ The Prophet has a stronger affinity to the believers than they do themselves. And his wives are their mothers. As ordained by Allah, blood relatives are more entitled ?to inheritance? than ?other? believers and immigrants, unless you ?want to? show kindness to your ?close? associates ?through bequest?. This is decreed in the Record.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 7وَإِذْ أَخَذْنَا مِنَ ٱلنَّبِيِّــۧنَ مِيثَـٰقَهُمْ وَمِنكَ وَمِن نُّوحٍ وَإِبْرَٲهِيمَ وَمُوسَىٰ وَعِيسَى ٱبْنِ مَرْيَمَۖ وَأَخَذْنَا مِنْهُم مِّيثَـٰقًا غَلِيظًا ٧ And ?remember? when We took a covenant from the prophets, as well as from you ?O Prophet?, and from Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Jesus, son of Mary. We did take a solemn covenant from ?all of? them
- Al Ahzab Ayah 8لِّيَسْــَٔلَ ٱلصَّـٰدِقِينَ عَن صِدْقِهِمْۚ وَأَعَدَّ لِلْكَـٰفِرِينَ عَذَابًا أَلِيمًا ٨ so that He may question these men of truth about their ?delivery of the? truth. And He has prepared a painful punishment for the disbelievers.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 9يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ ٱذْكُرُواْ نِعْمَةَ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ إِذْ جَآءَتْكُمْ جُنُودٌ فَأَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ رِيحًا وَجُنُودًا لَّمْ تَرَوْهَاۚ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ بَصِيرًا ٩ O believers! Remember Allah’s favour upon you when ?enemy? forces came to ?besiege? you ?in Medina?, so We sent against them a ?bitter? wind and forces you could not see. And Allah is All-Seeing of what you do.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 10إِذْ جَآءُوكُم مِّن فَوْقِكُمْ وَمِنْ أَسْفَلَ مِنكُمْ وَإِذْ زَاغَتِ ٱلْأَبْصَـٰرُ وَبَلَغَتِ ٱلْقُلُوبُ ٱلْحَنَاجِرَ وَتَظُنُّونَ بِٱللَّهِ ٱلظُّنُونَا۟ ١٠ ?Remember? when they came at you from east and west, when your eyes grew wild ?in horror? and your hearts jumped into your throats, and you entertained ?conflicting? thoughts about Allah.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 11هُنَالِكَ ٱبْتُلِىَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَزُلْزِلُواْ زِلْزَالاً شَدِيدًا ١١ Then and there the believers were put to the test, and were violently shaken.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 12وَإِذْ يَقُولُ ٱلْمُنَـٰفِقُونَ وَٱلَّذِينَ فِى قُلُوبِهِم مَّرَضٌ مَّا وَعَدَنَا ٱللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُۥٓ إِلَّا غُرُورًا ١٢ And ?remember? when the hypocrites and those with sickness in their hearts said, “Allah and His Messenger have promised us nothing but delusion!”
- Al Ahzab Ayah 13وَإِذْ قَالَت طَّآئِفَةٌ مِّنْهُمْ يَـٰٓأَهْلَ يَثْرِبَ لَا مُقَامَ لَكُمْ فَٱرْجِعُواْۚ وَيَسْتَــْٔذِنُ فَرِيقٌ مِّنْهُمُ ٱلنَّبِىَّ يَقُولُونَ إِنَّ بُيُوتَنَا عَوْرَةٌ وَمَا هِىَ بِعَوْرَةٍۖ إِن يُرِيدُونَ إِلَّا فِرَارًا ١٣ And ?remember? when a group of them said, “O people of Yathrib! There is no point in you staying ?here?, so retreat!” Another group of them asked the Prophet’s permission ?to leave?, saying, “Our homes are vulnerable,” while ?in fact? they were not vulnerable. They only wished to flee.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 14وَلَوْ دُخِلَتْ عَلَيْهِم مِّنْ أَقْطَارِهَا ثُمَّ سُئِلُواْ ٱلْفِتْنَةَ لَأَتَوْهَا وَمَا تَلَبَّثُواْ بِهَآ إِلَّا يَسِيرًا ١٤ Had their city been sacked from all sides and they had been asked to abandon faith, they would have done so with little hesitation.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 15وَلَقَدْ كَانُواْ عَـٰهَدُواْ ٱللَّهَ مِن قَبْلُ لَا يُوَلُّونَ ٱلْأَدْبَـٰرَۚ وَكَانَ عَهْدُ ٱللَّهِ مَسْــُٔولاً ١٥ They had already pledged to Allah earlier never to turn their backs ?in retreat?. And a pledge to Allah must be answered for.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 16قُل لَّن يَنفَعَكُمُ ٱلْفِرَارُ إِن فَرَرْتُم مِّنَ ٱلْمَوْتِ أَوِ ٱلْقَتْلِ وَإِذًا لَّا تُمَتَّعُونَ إِلَّا قَلِيلاً ١٦ Say, ?O Prophet,? “Fleeing will not benefit you if you ?try to? escape a natural or violent death. ?If it is not your time,? you will only be allowed enjoyment for a little while.”
- Al Ahzab Ayah 17قُلْ مَن ذَا ٱلَّذِى يَعْصِمُكُم مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ إِنْ أَرَادَ بِكُمْ سُوٓءًا أَوْ أَرَادَ بِكُمْ رَحْمَةًۚ وَلَا يَجِدُونَ لَهُم مِّن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ وَلِيًّا وَلَا نَصِيرًا ١٧ Ask ?them, O Prophet?, “Who can put you out of Allah’s reach if He intends to harm you or show you mercy?” They can never find any protector or helper besides Allah.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 18۞ قَدْ يَعْلَمُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْمُعَوِّقِينَ مِنكُمْ وَٱلْقَآئِلِينَ لِإِخْوَٲنِهِمْ هَلُمَّ إِلَيْنَاۖ وَلَا يَأْتُونَ ٱلْبَأْسَ إِلَّا قَلِيلاً ١٨ Allah knows well those among you who discourage ?others from fighting?, saying ?secretly? to their brothers, “Stay with us,” and who themselves hardly take part in fighting.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 19أَشِحَّةً عَلَيْكُمْۖ فَإِذَا جَآءَ ٱلْخَوْفُ رَأَيْتَهُمْ يَنظُرُونَ إِلَيْكَ تَدُورُ أَعْيُنُهُمْ كَٱلَّذِى يُغْشَىٰ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ ٱلْمَوْتِۖ فَإِذَا ذَهَبَ ٱلْخَوْفُ سَلَقُوكُم بِأَلْسِنَةٍ حِدَادٍ أَشِحَّةً عَلَى ٱلْخَيْرِۚ أُوْلَـٰٓئِكَ لَمْ يُؤْمِنُواْ فَأَحْبَطَ ٱللَّهُ أَعْمَـٰلَهُمْۚ وَكَانَ ذَٲلِكَ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ يَسِيرًا ١٩ ?They are? totally unwilling to assist you. When danger comes, you see them staring at you with their eyes rolling like someone in the throes of death. But once the danger is over, they slash you with razor-sharp tongues, ravenous for ?worldly? gains. Such people have not ?truly? believed, so Allah has rendered their deeds void. And that is easy for Allah.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 20يَحْسَبُونَ ٱلْأَحْزَابَ لَمْ يَذْهَبُواْۖ وَإِن يَأْتِ ٱلْأَحْزَابُ يَوَدُّواْ لَوْ أَنَّهُم بَادُونَ فِى ٱلْأَعْرَابِ يَسْــَٔلُونَ عَنْ أَنۢبَآئِكُمْۖ وَلَوْ كَانُواْ فِيكُم مَّا قَـٰتَلُوٓاْ إِلَّا قَلِيلاً ٢٠ They ?still? think that the enemy alliance has not ?yet? withdrawn. And if the allies were to come ?again?, the hypocrites would wish to be away in the desert among nomadic Arabs, ?only? asking for news about you ?believers?. And if the hypocrites were in your midst, they would hardly take part in the fight.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 21لَّقَدْ كَانَ لَكُمْ فِى رَسُولِ ٱللَّهِ أُسْوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ لِّمَن كَانَ يَرْجُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَٱلْيَوْمَ ٱلْأَخِرَ وَذَكَرَ ٱللَّهَ كَثِيرًا ٢١ Indeed, in the Messenger of Allah you have an excellent example for whoever has hope in Allah and the Last Day, and remembers Allah often.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 22وَلَمَّا رَءَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ ٱلْأَحْزَابَ قَالُواْ هَـٰذَا مَا وَعَدَنَا ٱللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُۥ وَصَدَقَ ٱللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُۥۚ وَمَا زَادَهُمْ إِلَّآ إِيمَـٰنًا وَتَسْلِيمًا ٢٢ When the believers saw the enemy alliance, they said, “This is what Allah and His Messenger had promised us. The promise of Allah and His Messenger has come true.” And this only increased them in faith and submission.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 23مِّنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ رِجَالٌ صَدَقُواْ مَا عَـٰهَدُواْ ٱللَّهَ عَلَيْهِۖ فَمِنْهُم مَّن قَضَىٰ نَحْبَهُۥ وَمِنْهُم مَّن يَنتَظِرُۖ وَمَا بَدَّلُواْ تَبْدِيلاً ٢٣ Among the believers are men who have proven true to what they pledged to Allah. Some of them have fulfilled their pledge ?with their lives?, others are waiting ?their turn?. They have never changed ?their commitment? in the least.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 24لِّيَجْزِىَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلصَّـٰدِقِينَ بِصِدْقِهِمْ وَيُعَذِّبَ ٱلْمُنَـٰفِقِينَ إِن شَآءَ أَوْ يَتُوبَ عَلَيْهِمْۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ كَانَ غَفُورًا رَّحِيمًا ٢٤ ?It all happened? so Allah may reward the faithful for their faithfulness, and punish the hypocrites if He wills or turn to them ?in mercy?. Surely Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 25وَرَدَّ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ بِغَيْظِهِمْ لَمْ يَنَالُواْ خَيْرًاۚ وَكَفَى ٱللَّهُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ٱلْقِتَالَۚ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ قَوِيًّا عَزِيزًا ٢٥ And Allah drove back the disbelievers in their rage, totally empty-handed. And Allah spared the believers from fighting. For Allah is All-Powerful, Almighty.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 26وَأَنزَلَ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَـٰهَرُوهُم مِّنْ أَهْلِ ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ مِن صَيَاصِيهِمْ وَقَذَفَ فِى قُلُوبِهِمُ ٱلرُّعْبَ فَرِيقًا تَقْتُلُونَ وَتَأْسِرُونَ فَرِيقًا ٢٦ And He brought down those from the People of the Book who supported the enemy alliance from their own strongholds, and cast horror into their hearts. You ?believers? killed some, and took others captive.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 27وَأَوْرَثَكُمْ أَرْضَهُمْ وَدِيَـٰرَهُمْ وَأَمْوَٲلَهُمْ وَأَرْضًا لَّمْ تَطَــُٔوهَاۚ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَدِيرًا ٢٧ He has also caused you to take over their lands, homes, and wealth, as well as lands you have not yet set foot on. And Allah is Most Capable of everything.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 28يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّبِىُّ قُل لِّأَزْوَٲجِكَ إِن كُنتُنَّ تُرِدْنَ ٱلْحَيَوٲةَ ٱلدُّنْيَا وَزِينَتَهَا فَتَعَالَيْنَ أُمَتِّعْكُنَّ وَأُسَرِّحْكُنَّ سَرَاحًا جَمِيلاً ٢٨ O Prophet! Say to your wives, “If you desire the life of this world and its luxury, then come, I will give you a ?suitable? compensation ?for divorce? and let you go graciously.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 29وَإِن كُنتُنَّ تُرِدْنَ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ وَٱلدَّارَ ٱلْأَخِرَةَ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ أَعَدَّ لِلْمُحْسِنَـٰتِ مِنكُنَّ أَجْرًا عَظِيمًا ٢٩ But if you desire Allah and His Messenger and the ?everlasting? Home of the Hereafter, then Surely Allah has prepared a great reward for those of you who do good.”
- Al Ahzab Ayah 30يَـٰنِسَآءَ ٱلنَّبِىِّ مَن يَأْتِ مِنكُنَّ بِفَـٰحِشَةٍ مُّبَيِّنَةٍ يُضَـٰعَفْ لَهَا ٱلْعَذَابُ ضِعْفَيْنِۚ وَكَانَ ذَٲلِكَ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ يَسِيرًا ٣٠ O wives of the Prophet! If any of you were to commit a blatant misconduct, the punishment would be doubled for her. And that is easy for Allah.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 31۞ وَمَن يَقْنُتْ مِنكُنَّ لِلَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِۦ وَتَعْمَلْ صَـٰلِحًا نُّؤْتِهَآ أَجْرَهَا مَرَّتَيْنِ وَأَعْتَدْنَا لَهَا رِزْقًا كَرِيمًا ٣١ And whoever of you devoutly obeys Allah and His Messenger and does good, We will grant her double the reward, and We have prepared for her an honourable provision.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 32يَـٰنِسَآءَ ٱلنَّبِىِّ لَسْتُنَّ كَأَحَدٍ مِّنَ ٱلنِّسَآءِۚ إِنِ ٱتَّقَيْتُنَّ فَلَا تَخْضَعْنَ بِٱلْقَوْلِ فَيَطْمَعَ ٱلَّذِى فِى قَلْبِهِۦ مَرَضٌ وَقُلْنَ قَوْلاً مَّعْرُوفًا ٣٢ O wives of the Prophet! You are not like any other women: if you are mindful ?of Allah?, then do not be overly effeminate in speech ?with men? or those with sickness in their hearts may be tempted, but speak in a moderate tone.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 33وَقَرْنَ فِى بُيُوتِكُنَّ وَلَا تَبَرَّجْنَ تَبَرُّجَ ٱلْجَـٰهِلِيَّةِ ٱلْأُولَىٰۖ وَأَقِمْنَ ٱلصَّلَوٲةَ وَءَاتِينَ ٱلزَّكَوٲةَ وَأَطِعْنَ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۚۥٓ إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ ٱللَّهُ لِيُذْهِبَ عَنكُمُ ٱلرِّجْسَ أَهْلَ ٱلْبَيْتِ وَيُطَهِّرَكُمْ تَطْهِيرًا ٣٣ Settle in your homes, and do not display yourselves as women did in the days of ?pre-Islamic? ignorance. Establish prayer, pay alms-tax, and obey Allah and His Messenger. Allah only intends to keep ?the causes of? evil away from you and purify you completely, O members of the ?Prophet’s? family!
- Al Ahzab Ayah 34وَٱذْكُرْنَ مَا يُتْلَىٰ فِى بُيُوتِكُنَّ مِنْ ءَايَـٰتِ ٱللَّهِ وَٱلْحِكْمَةِۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ كَانَ لَطِيفًا خَبِيرًا ٣٤ ?Always? remember what is recited in your homes of Allah’s revelations and ?prophetic? wisdom. Surely Allah is Most Subtle, All-Aware.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 35إِنَّ ٱلْمُسْلِمِينَ وَٱلْمُسْلِمَـٰتِ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنَـٰتِ وَٱلْقَـٰنِتِينَ وَٱلْقَـٰنِتَـٰتِ وَٱلصَّـٰدِقِينَ وَٱلصَّـٰدِقَـٰتِ وَٱلصَّـٰبِرِينَ وَٱلصَّـٰبِرَٲتِ وَٱلْخَـٰشِعِينَ وَٱلْخَـٰشِعَـٰتِ وَٱلْمُتَصَدِّقِينَ وَٱلْمُتَصَدِّقَـٰتِ وَٱلصَّـٰٓئِمِينَ وَٱلصَّـٰٓئِمَـٰتِ وَٱلْحَـٰفِظِينَ فُرُوجَهُمْ وَٱلْحَـٰفِظَـٰتِ وَٱلذَّٲكِرِينَ ٱللَّهَ كَثِيرًا وَٱلذَّٲكِرَٲتِ أَعَدَّ ٱللَّهُ لَهُم مَّغْفِرَةً وَأَجْرًا عَظِيمًا ٣٥ Surely ?for? Muslim men and women, believing men and women, devout men and women, truthful men and women, patient men and women, humble men and women, charitable men and women, fasting men and women, men and women who guard their chastity, and men and women who remember Allah often—for ?all of? them Allah has prepared forgiveness and a great reward.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 36وَمَا كَانَ لِمُؤْمِنٍ وَلَا مُؤْمِنَةٍ إِذَا قَضَى ٱللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُۥٓ أَمْرًا أَن يَكُونَ لَهُمُ ٱلْخِيَرَةُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِمْۗ وَمَن يَعْصِ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ فَقَدْ ضَلَّ ضَلَـٰلاً مُّبِينًا ٣٦ It is not for a believing man or woman—when Allah and His Messenger decree a matter—to have any other choice in that matter. Indeed, whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger has clearly gone ?far? astray.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 37وَإِذْ تَقُولُ لِلَّذِىٓ أَنْعَمَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَأَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيْهِ أَمْسِكْ عَلَيْكَ زَوْجَكَ وَٱتَّقِ ٱللَّهَ وَتُخْفِى فِى نَفْسِكَ مَا ٱللَّهُ مُبْدِيهِ وَتَخْشَى ٱلنَّاسَ وَٱللَّهُ أَحَقُّ أَن تَخْشَـٰهُۖ فَلَمَّا قَضَىٰ زَيْدٌ مِّنْهَا وَطَرًا زَوَّجْنَـٰكَهَا لِكَىْ لَا يَكُونَ عَلَى ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ حَرَجٌ فِىٓ أَزْوَٲجِ أَدْعِيَآئِهِمْ إِذَا قَضَوْاْ مِنْهُنَّ وَطَرًاۚ وَكَانَ أَمْرُ ٱللَّهِ مَفْعُولاً ٣٧ And ?remember, O Prophet,? when you said to the one for whom Allah has done a favour and you ?too? have done a favour, “Keep your wife and fear Allah,” while concealing within yourself what Allah was going to reveal. And ?so? you were considering the people, whereas Allah was more worthy of your consideration. So when Zaid totally lost interest in ?keeping? his wife, We gave her to you in marriage, so that there would be no blame on the believers for marrying the ex-wives of their adopted sons after their divorce. And Allah’s command is totally binding.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 39ٱلَّذِينَ يُبَلِّغُونَ رِسَـٰلَـٰتِ ٱللَّهِ وَيَخْشَوْنَهُۥ وَلَا يَخْشَوْنَ أَحَدًا إِلَّا ٱللَّهَۗ وَكَفَىٰ بِٱللَّهِ حَسِيبًا ٣٩ ?That is His way with? those ?prophets? who deliver the messages of Allah, and consider Him, and none but Allah. And sufficient is Allah as a ?vigilant? Reckoner.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 38مَّا كَانَ عَلَى ٱلنَّبِىِّ مِنْ حَرَجٍ فِيمَا فَرَضَ ٱللَّهُ لَهُۖۥ سُنَّةَ ٱللَّهِ فِى ٱلَّذِينَ خَلَوْاْ مِن قَبْلُۚ وَكَانَ أَمْرُ ٱللَّهِ قَدَرًا مَّقْدُورًا ٣٨ There is no blame on the Prophet for doing what Allah has ordained for him. That has been the way of Allah with those ?prophets? who had gone before. And Allah’s command has been firmly decreed.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 40مَّا كَانَ مُحَمَّدٌ أَبَآ أَحَدٍ مِّن رِّجَالِكُمْ وَلَـٰكِن رَّسُولَ ٱللَّهِ وَخَاتَمَ ٱلنَّبِيِّــۧنَۗ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَىْءٍ عَلِيمًا ٤٠ Mu?ammad is not the father of any of your men, but is the Messenger of Allah and the seal of the prophets. And Allah has ?perfect? knowledge of all things.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 41يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ ٱذْكُرُواْ ٱللَّهَ ذِكْرًا كَثِيرًا ٤١ O believers! Always remember Allah often,
- Al Ahzab Ayah 42وَسَبِّحُوهُ بُكْرَةً وَأَصِيلاً ٤٢ and glorify Him morning and evening.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 43هُوَ ٱلَّذِى يُصَلِّى عَلَيْكُمْ وَمَلَـٰٓئِكَتُهُۥ لِيُخْرِجَكُم مِّنَ ٱلظُّلُمَـٰتِ إِلَى ٱلنُّورِۚ وَكَانَ بِٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ رَحِيمًا ٤٣ He is the One Who showers His blessings upon you—and His angels pray for you—so that He may bring you out of darkness and into light. For He is ever Merciful to the believers.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 44تَحِيَّتُهُمْ يَوْمَ يَلْقَوْنَهُۥ سَلَـٰمٌۚ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُمْ أَجْرًا كَرِيمًا ٤٤ Their greeting on the Day they meet Him will be, “Peace!” And He has prepared for them an honourable reward.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 45يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّبِىُّ إِنَّآ أَرْسَلْنَـٰكَ شَـٰهِدًا وَمُبَشِّرًا وَنَذِيرًا ٤٥ O Prophet! We have sent you as a witness, and a deliverer of good news, and a warner,
- Al Ahzab Ayah 46وَدَاعِيًا إِلَى ٱللَّهِ بِإِذْنِهِۦ وَسِرَاجًا مُّنِيرًا ٤٦ and a caller to ?the Way of? Allah by His command, and a beacon of light.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 47وَبَشِّرِ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ بِأَنَّ لَهُم مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ فَضْلاً كَبِيرًا ٤٧ Give good news to the believers that they will have a great bounty from Allah.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 50يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّبِىُّ إِنَّآ أَحْلَلْنَا لَكَ أَزْوَٲجَكَ ٱلَّـٰتِىٓ ءَاتَيْتَ أُجُورَهُنَّ وَمَا مَلَكَتْ يَمِينُكَ مِمَّآ أَفَآءَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ وَبَنَاتِ عَمِّكَ وَبَنَاتِ عَمَّـٰتِكَ وَبَنَاتِ خَالِكَ وَبَنَاتِ خَـٰلَـٰتِكَ ٱلَّـٰتِى هَاجَرْنَ مَعَكَ وَٱمْرَأَةً مُّؤْمِنَةً إِن وَهَبَتْ نَفْسَهَا لِلنَّبِىِّ إِنْ أَرَادَ ٱلنَّبِىُّ أَن يَسْتَنكِحَهَا خَالِصَةً لَّكَ مِن دُونِ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَۗ قَدْ عَلِمْنَا مَا فَرَضْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ فِىٓ أَزْوَٲجِهِمْ وَمَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَـٰنُهُمْ لِكَيْلَا يَكُونَ عَلَيْكَ حَرَجٌۗ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ غَفُورًا رَّحِيمًا ٥٠ O Prophet! We have made lawful for you your wives to whom you have paid their ?full? dowries as well as those ?bondwomen? in your possession, whom Allah has granted you. And ?you are allowed to marry? the daughters of your paternal uncles and aunts, and the daughters of your maternal uncles and aunts, who have emigrated like you. Also ?allowed for marriage is? a believing woman who offers herself to the Prophet ?without dowry? if he is interested in marrying her—?this is? exclusively for you, not for the rest of the believers. We know well what ?rulings? We have ordained for the believers in relation to their wives and those ?bondwomen? in their possession. As such, there would be no blame on you. And Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 49يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ إِذَا نَكَحْتُمُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنَـٰتِ ثُمَّ طَلَّقْتُمُوهُنَّ مِن قَبْلِ أَن تَمَسُّوهُنَّ فَمَا لَكُمْ عَلَيْهِنَّ مِنْ عِدَّةٍ تَعْتَدُّونَهَاۖ فَمَتِّعُوهُنَّ وَسَرِّحُوهُنَّ سَرَاحًا جَمِيلاً ٤٩ O believers! If you marry believing women and then divorce them before you touch them, they will have no waiting period for you to count, so give them a ?suitable? compensation, and let them go graciously.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 48وَلَا تُطِعِ ٱلْكَـٰفِرِينَ وَٱلْمُنَـٰفِقِينَ وَدَعْ أَذَٮٰهُمْ وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى ٱللَّهِۚ وَكَفَىٰ بِٱللَّهِ وَكِيلاً ٤٨ Do not yield to the disbelievers and the hypocrites. Overlook their annoyances, and put your trust in Allah. For Allah is sufficient as a Trustee of Affairs.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 51۞ تُرْجِى مَن تَشَآءُ مِنْهُنَّ وَتُــْٔوِىٓ إِلَيْكَ مَن تَشَآءُۖ وَمَنِ ٱبْتَغَيْتَ مِمَّنْ عَزَلْتَ فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْكَۚ ذَٲلِكَ أَدْنَىٰٓ أَن تَقَرَّ أَعْيُنُهُنَّ وَلَا يَحْزَنَّ وَيَرْضَيْنَ بِمَآ ءَاتَيْتَهُنَّ كُلُّهُنَّۚ وَٱللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ مَا فِى قُلُوبِكُمْۚ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ عَلِيمًا حَلِيمًا ٥١ It is up to you ?O Prophet? to delay or receive whoever you please of your wives. There is no blame on you if you call back any of those you have set aside. That is more likely that they will be content, not grieved, and satisfied with what you offer them all. Allah ?fully? knows what is in your hearts. And Allah is All-Knowing, Most Forbearing.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 52لَّا يَحِلُّ لَكَ ٱلنِّسَآءُ مِنۢ بَعْدُ وَلَآ أَن تَبَدَّلَ بِهِنَّ مِنْ أَزْوَٲجٍ وَلَوْ أَعْجَبَكَ حُسْنُهُنَّ إِلَّا مَا مَلَكَتْ يَمِينُكَۗ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ رَّقِيبًا ٥٢ It is not lawful for you ?O Prophet? to marry more women after this, nor can you replace any of your present wives with another, even if her beauty may attract you—except those ?bondwomen? in your possession. And Allah is ever Watchful over all things.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 53يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ لَا تَدْخُلُواْ بُيُوتَ ٱلنَّبِىِّ إِلَّآ أَن يُؤْذَنَ لَكُمْ إِلَىٰ طَعَامٍ غَيْرَ نَـٰظِرِينَ إِنَـٰهُ وَلَـٰكِنْ إِذَا دُعِيتُمْ فَٱدْخُلُواْ فَإِذَا طَعِمْتُمْ فَٱنتَشِرُواْ وَلَا مُسْتَــْٔنِسِينَ لِحَدِيثٍۚ إِنَّ ذَٲلِكُمْ كَانَ يُؤْذِى ٱلنَّبِىَّ فَيَسْتَحْىِۦ مِنكُمْۖ وَٱللَّهُ لَا يَسْتَحْىِۦ مِنَ ٱلْحَقِّۚ وَإِذَا سَأَلْتُمُوهُنَّ مَتَـٰعًا فَسْــَٔلُوهُنَّ مِن وَرَآءِ حِجَابٍۚ ذَٲلِكُمْ أَطْهَرُ لِقُلُوبِكُمْ وَقُلُوبِهِنَّۚ وَمَا كَانَ لَكُمْ أَن تُؤْذُواْ رَسُولَ ٱللَّهِ وَلَآ أَن تَنكِحُوٓاْ أَزْوَٲجَهُۥ مِنۢ بَعْدِهِۦٓ أَبَدًاۚ إِنَّ ذَٲلِكُمْ كَانَ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ عَظِيمًا ٥٣ O believers! Do not enter the homes of the Prophet without permission ?and if invited? for a meal, do not ?come too early and? linger until the meal is ready. But if you are invited, then enter ?on time?. Once you have eaten, then go on your way, and do not stay for casual talk. Such behaviour is truly annoying to the Prophet, yet he is too shy to ask you to leave. But Allah is never shy of the truth. And when you ?believers? ask his wives for something, ask them from behind a barrier. This is purer for your hearts and theirs. And it is not right for you to annoy the Messenger of Allah, nor ever marry his wives after him. This would certainly be a major offence in the sight of Allah.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 54إِن تُبْدُواْ شَيْــًٔا أَوْ تُخْفُوهُ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ كَانَ بِكُلِّ شَىْءٍ عَلِيمًا ٥٤ Whether you reveal something or conceal it, surely Allah has ?perfect? knowledge of all things.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 55لَّا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْهِنَّ فِىٓ ءَابَآئِهِنَّ وَلَآ أَبْنَآئِهِنَّ وَلَآ إِخْوَٲنِهِنَّ وَلَآ أَبْنَآءِ إِخْوَٲنِهِنَّ وَلَآ أَبْنَآءِ أَخَوَٲتِهِنَّ وَلَا نِسَآئِهِنَّ وَلَا مَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَـٰنُهُنَّۗ وَٱتَّقِينَ ٱللَّهَۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ كَانَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ شَهِيدًا ٥٥ There is no blame on the Prophet’s wives ?if they appear unveiled? before their fathers, their sons, their brothers, their brothers’ sons, their sisters’ sons, their fellow ?Muslim? women, and those ?bondspeople? in their possession. And be mindful of Allah ?O wives of the Prophet!? Surely Allah is a Witness over all things.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 56إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ وَمَلَـٰٓئِكَتَهُۥ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَى ٱلنَّبِىِّۚ يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ صَلُّواْ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلِّمُواْ تَسْلِيمًا ٥٦ Indeed, Allah showers His blessings upon the Prophet, and His angels pray for him. O believers! Invoke Allah’s blessings upon him, and salute him with worthy greetings of peace.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 57إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يُؤْذُونَ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ لَعَنَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ فِى ٱلدُّنْيَا وَٱلْأَخِرَةِ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُمْ عَذَابًا مُّهِينًا ٥٧ Surely those who offend Allah and His Messenger are condemned by Allah in this world and the Hereafter. And He has prepared for them a humiliating punishment.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 58وَٱلَّذِينَ يُؤْذُونَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنَـٰتِ بِغَيْرِ مَا ٱكْتَسَبُواْ فَقَدِ ٱحْتَمَلُواْ بُهْتَـٰنًا وَإِثْمًا مُّبِينًا ٥٨ As for those who abuse believing men and women unjustifiably, they will definitely bear the guilt of slander and blatant sin.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 59يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّبِىُّ قُل لِّأَزْوَٲجِكَ وَبَنَاتِكَ وَنِسَآءِ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ يُدْنِينَ عَلَيْهِنَّ مِن جَلَـٰبِيبِهِنَّۚ ذَٲلِكَ أَدْنَىٰٓ أَن يُعْرَفْنَ فَلَا يُؤْذَيْنَۗ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ غَفُورًا رَّحِيمًا ٥٩ O Prophet! Ask your wives, daughters, and believing women to draw their cloaks over their bodies. In this way it is more likely that they will be recognized ?as virtuous? and not be harassed. And Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 60۞ لَّئِن لَّمْ يَنتَهِ ٱلْمُنَـٰفِقُونَ وَٱلَّذِينَ فِى قُلُوبِهِم مَّرَضٌ وَٱلْمُرْجِفُونَ فِى ٱلْمَدِينَةِ لَنُغْرِيَنَّكَ بِهِمْ ثُمَّ لَا يُجَاوِرُونَكَ فِيهَآ إِلَّا قَلِيلاً ٦٠ If the hypocrites, and those with sickness in their hearts, and rumour-mongers in Medina do not desist, We will certainly incite you ?O Prophet? against them, and then they will not be your neighbours there any longer.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 61مَّلْعُونِينَۖ أَيْنَمَا ثُقِفُوٓاْ أُخِذُواْ وَقُتِّلُواْ تَقْتِيلاً ٦١ ?They deserve to be? condemned. ?If they were to persist,? they would get themselves seized and killed relentlessly wherever they are found!
- Al Ahzab Ayah 62سُنَّةَ ٱللَّهِ فِى ٱلَّذِينَ خَلَوْاْ مِن قَبْلُۖ وَلَن تَجِدَ لِسُنَّةِ ٱللَّهِ تَبْدِيلاً ٦٢ That was Allah’s way with those ?hypocrites? who have gone before. And you will find no change in Allah’s way.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 63يَسْــَٔلُكَ ٱلنَّاسُ عَنِ ٱلسَّاعَةِۖ قُلْ إِنَّمَا عِلْمُهَا عِندَ ٱللَّهِۚ وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ لَعَلَّ ٱلسَّاعَةَ تَكُونُ قَرِيبًا ٦٣ People ask you ?O Prophet? about the Hour. Say, “That knowledge is only with Allah. You never know, perhaps the Hour is near.”
- Al Ahzab Ayah 64إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَعَنَ ٱلْكَـٰفِرِينَ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُمْ سَعِيرًا ٦٤ Surely Allah condemns the disbelievers, and has prepared for them a blazing Fire,
- Al Ahzab Ayah 65خَـٰلِدِينَ فِيهَآ أَبَدًاۖ لَّا يَجِدُونَ وَلِيًّا وَلَا نَصِيرًا ٦٥ to stay there for ever and ever—never will they find any protector or helper.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 66يَوْمَ تُقَلَّبُ وُجُوهُهُمْ فِى ٱلنَّارِ يَقُولُونَ يَـٰلَيْتَنَآ أَطَعْنَا ٱللَّهَ وَأَطَعْنَا ٱلرَّسُولَا۟ ٦٦ On the Day their faces are ?constantly? flipped in the Fire, they will cry, “Oh! If only we had obeyed Allah and obeyed the Messenger!”
- Al Ahzab Ayah 67وَقَالُواْ رَبَّنَآ إِنَّآ أَطَعْنَا سَادَتَنَا وَكُبَرَآءَنَا فَأَضَلُّونَا ٱلسَّبِيلَا۟ ٦٧ And they will say, “Our Lord! We obeyed our leaders and elite, but they led us astray from the ?Right? Way.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 68رَبَّنَآ ءَاتِهِمْ ضِعْفَيْنِ مِنَ ٱلْعَذَابِ وَٱلْعَنْهُمْ لَعْنًا كَبِيرًا ٦٨ Our Lord! Give them double ?our? punishment, and condemn them tremendously.”
- Al Ahzab Ayah 69يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ لَا تَكُونُواْ كَٱلَّذِينَ ءَاذَوْاْ مُوسَىٰ فَبَرَّأَهُ ٱللَّهُ مِمَّا قَالُواْۚ وَكَانَ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ وَجِيهًا ٦٩ O believers! Do not be like those who slandered Moses, but Allah cleared him of what they said. And he was honourable in the sight of Allah.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 70يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ ٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَقُولُواْ قَوْلاً سَدِيدًا ٧٠ O believers! Be mindful of Allah, and say what is right.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 71يُصْلِحْ لَكُمْ أَعْمَـٰلَكُمْ وَيَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ ذُنُوبَكُمْۗ وَمَن يُطِعِ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ فَقَدْ فَازَ فَوْزًا عَظِيمًا ٧١ He will bless your deeds for you, and forgive your sins. And whoever obeys Allah and His Messenger, has truly achieved a great triumph.
- Al Ahzab Ayah 72إِنَّا عَرَضْنَا ٱلْأَمَانَةَ عَلَى ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٲتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَٱلْجِبَالِ فَأَبَيْنَ أَن يَحْمِلْنَهَا وَأَشْفَقْنَ مِنْهَا وَحَمَلَهَا ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُۖ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ ظَلُومًا جَهُولاً ٧٢ Indeed, We offered the trust to the heavens and the earth and the mountains, but they ?all? declined to bear it, being fearful of it. But humanity assumed it, ?for? they are truly wrongful ?to themselves? and ignorant ?of the consequences?,
- Al Ahzab Ayah 73لِّيُعَذِّبَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْمُنَـٰفِقِينَ وَٱلْمُنَـٰفِقَـٰتِ وَٱلْمُشْرِكِينَ وَٱلْمُشْرِكَـٰتِ وَيَتُوبَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَى ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنَـٰتِۗ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ غَفُورًا رَّحِيمَۢا ٧٣ so that Allah will punish hypocrite men and women and polytheistic men and women, and Allah will turn in mercy to believing men and women. For Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
