In the name
of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
1. Verily We
have granted thee a manifest Victory:
2. That Allah
may forgive thee thy faults of the past and those to follow; fulfil His favour
to thee; and guide thee on the Straight Way;
3. And that
Allah may help thee with powerful help.
4. It is He Who
sent down tranquillity into the hearts of the Believers, that they may add
faith to their faith;- for to Allah belong the Forces of the heavens and the
earth; and Allah is Full of Knowledge and Wisdom;-
5. That He may
admit the men and women who believe, to Gardens beneath which rivers flow, to
dwell therein for aye, and remove their ills from them;- and that is, in the
sight of Allah, the highest achievement (for man),-
6. And that He
may punish the Hypocrites, men and women, and the Polytheists men and women,
who imagine an evil opinion of Allah. On them is a round of Evil: the Wrath of
Allah is on them: He has cursed them and got Hell ready for them: and evil is
it for a destination.
7. For to Allah
belong the Forces of the heavens and the earth; and Allah is Exalted in Power,
Full of Wisdom.
8. We have
truly sent thee as a witness, as a bringer of Glad Tidings, and as a Warner:
9. In order
that ye (O men) may believe in Allah and His Messenger, that ye may assist and
honour Him, and celebrate His praise morning and evening.
10. Verily those
who plight their fealty to thee do no less than plight their fealty to Allah.
the Hand of Allah is over their hands: then any one who violates his oath, does
so to the harm of his own soul, and any one who fulfils what he has covenanted
with Allah,- Allah will soon grant him a great Reward.
11. The desert
Arabs who lagged behind will say to thee: "We were engaged in (looking
after) our flocks and herds, and our families: do thou then ask forgiveness for
us." They say with their tongues what is not in their hearts. Say:
"Who then has any power at all (to intervene) on your behalf with Allah,
if His Will is to give you some loss or to give you some profit? But Allah is
well acquainted with all that ye do.
12. "Nay,
ye thought that the Messenger and the Believers would never return to their
families; this seemed pleasing in your hearts, and ye conceived an evil
thought, for ye are a people lost (in wickedness)."
13. And if any
believe not in Allah and His Messenger, We have prepared, for those who reject
Allah, a Blazing Fire!
14. To Allah
belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth: He forgives whom He wills,
and He punishes whom He wills: but Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
15. Those who
lagged behind (will say), when ye (are free to) march and take booty (in war):
"Permit us to follow you." They wish to change Allah.s decree: Say:
"Not thus will ye follow us: Allah has already declared (this)
beforehand": then they will say, "But ye are jealous of us."
Nay, but little do they understand (such things).
16. Say to the
desert Arabs who lagged behind: "Ye shall be summoned (to fight) against a
people given to vehement war: then shall ye fight, or they shall submit. Then
if ye show obedience, Allah will grant you a goodly reward, but if ye turn back
as ye did before, He will punish you with a grievous Penalty."
17. No blame is
there on the blind, nor is there blame on the lame, nor on one ill (if he joins
not the war): But he that obeys Allah and his Messenger,- ((Allah)) will admit
him to Gardens beneath which rivers flow; and he who turns back, ((Allah)) will
punish him with a grievous Penalty.
18. Allah.s Good
Pleasure was on the Believers when they swore Fealty to thee under the Tree: He
knew what was in their hearts, and He sent down Tranquillity to them; and He
rewarded them with a speedy Victory;
19. And many
gains will they acquire (besides): and Allah is Exalted in Power, Full of
Wisdom.
20. Allah has
promised you many gains that ye shall acquire, and He has given you these
beforehand; and He has restrained the hands of men from you; that it may be a
Sign for the Believers, and that He may guide you to a Straight Path;
21. And other
gains (there are), which are not within your power, but which Allah has
compassed: and Allah has power over all things.
22. If the
Unbelievers should fight you, they would certainly turn their backs; then would
they find neither protector nor helper.
23. (Such has
been) the practice (approved) of Allah already in the past: no change wilt thou
find in the practice (approved) of Allah.
24. And it is He
Who has restrained their hands from you and your hands from them in the midst
of Makka, after that He gave you the victory over them. And Allah sees well all
that ye do.
25. They are the
ones who denied Revelation and hindered you from the Sacred Mosque and the
sacrificial animals, detained from reaching their place of sacrifice. Had there
not been believing men and believing women whom ye did not know that ye were
trampling down and on whose account a crime would have accrued to you without
(your) knowledge, ((Allah) would have allowed you to force your way, but He
held back your hands) that He may admit to His Mercy whom He will. If they had
been apart, We should certainly have punished the Unbelievers among them with a
grievous Punishment.
26. While the
Unbelievers got up in their hearts heat and cant - the heat and cant of
ignorance,- Allah sent down His Tranquillity to his Messenger and to the
Believers, and made them stick close to the command of self-restraint; and well
were they entitled to it and worthy of it. And Allah has full knowledge of all
things.
27. Truly did
Allah fulfil the vision for His Messenger. ye shall enter the Sacred Mosque, if
Allah wills, with minds secure, heads shaved, hair cut short, and without fear.
For He knew what ye knew not, and He granted, besides this, a speedy victory.
28. It is He Who
has sent His Messenger with Guidance and the Religion of Truth, to proclaim it
over all religion: and enough is Allah for a Witness.
29. Muhammad is
the apostle of Allah. and those who are with him are strong against
Unbelievers, (but) compassionate amongst each other. Thou wilt see them bow and
prostrate themselves (in prayer), seeking Grace from Allah and (His) Good
Pleasure. On their faces are their marks, (being) the traces of their
prostration. This is their similitude in the Taurat; and their similitude in
the Gospel is: like a seed which sends forth its blade, then makes it strong;
it then becomes thick, and it stands on its own stem, (filling) the sowers with
wonder and delight. As a result, it fills the Unbelievers with rage at them.
Allah has promised those among them who believe and do righteous deeds
forgiveness, and a great Reward.
