Ayah 47:3 الأية
ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا اتَّبَعُوا الْبَاطِلَ وَأَنَّ الَّذِينَ
آمَنُوا اتَّبَعُوا الْحَقَّ مِن رَّبِّهِمْ ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ يَضْرِبُ اللَّهُ

follow the truth from their Lord. Thus does Allah present to the people their
comparisons.

Dr. Ghali
That is because the ones who have disbelieved have closely followed untruth and
the ones who have believed have closely followed the Truth from their Lord. Thus
Allah strikes their similitudes for mankind.

Ayah 47:4 الأية
فَإِذَا لَقِيتُمُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا فَضَرْبَ الرِّقَابِ حَتَّىٰ إِذَا
أَثْخَنتُمُوهُمْ فَشُدُّوا الْوَثَاقَ فَإِمَّا مَنًّا بَعْدُ وَإِمَّا فِدَاءً
حَتَّىٰ تَضَعَ الْحَرْبُ أَوْزَارَهَا ۚ ذَٰلِكَ وَلَوْ يَشَاءُ اللَّهُ
لَانتَصَرَ مِنْهُمْ وَلَٰكِن لِّيَبْلُوَ بَعْضَكُم بِبَعْضٍ ۗ وَالَّذِينَ
قُتِلُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَلَن يُضِلَّ أَعْمَالَهُمْ
Sahih International
So when you meet those who disbelieve [in battle], strike [their] necks until,
when you have inflicted slaughter upon them, then secure their bonds, and either
[confer] favor afterwards or ransom [them] until the war lays down its burdens.
That [is the command]. And if Allah had willed, He could have taken vengeance
upon them [Himself], but [He ordered armed struggle] to test some of you by
means of others. And those who are killed in the cause of Allah - never will He
waste their deeds.
Muhsin Khan
So, when you meet (in fight Jihad in Allah's Cause), those who disbelieve smite
at their necks till when you have killed and wounded many of them, then bind a
bond firmly (on them, i.e. take them as captives). Thereafter (is the time)
either for generosity (i.e. free them without ransom), or ransom (according to
what benefits Islam), until the war lays down its burden. Thus [you are ordered
by Allah to continue in carrying out Jihad against the disbelievers till they
embrace Islam (i.e. are saved from the punishment in the Hell-fire) or at least
come under your protection], but if it had been Allah's Will, He Himself could
certainly have punished them (without you). But (He lets you fight), in order to
test you, some with others. But those who are killed in the Way of Allah, He
will never let their deeds be lost,
Pickthall
Now when ye meet in battle those who disbelieve, then it is smiting of the necks
until, when ye have routed them, then making fast of bonds; and afterward either
grace or ransom till the war lay down its burdens. That (is the ordinance). And
if Allah willed He could have punished them (without you) but (thus it is
ordained) that He may try some of you by means of others. And those who are
slain in the way of Allah, He rendereth not their actions vain.
Yusuf Ali
Therefore, when ye meet the Unbelievers (in fight), smite at their necks; At
length, when ye have thoroughly subdued them, bind a bond firmly (on them):
thereafter (is the time for) either generosity or ransom: Until the war lays
down its burdens. Thus (are ye commanded): but if it had been Allah's Will, He
could certainly have exacted retribution from them (Himself); but (He lets you
fight) in order to test you, some with others. But those who are slain in the
Way of Allah,- He will never let their deeds be lost.
Shakir
So when you meet in battle those who disbelieve, then smite the necks until when
you have overcome them, then make (them) prisoners, and afterwards either set
them free as a favor or let them ransom (themselves) until the war terminates.
That (shall be so); and if Allah had pleased He would certainly have exacted
what is due from them, but that He may try some of you by means of others; and
(as for) those who are slain in the way of Allah, He will by no means allow
their deeds to perish.
Dr. Ghali
So when you meet the ones who have disbelieved, then it is striking of the necks
until, when you have subjugated (Wrongly understood by Arberry and others to
mean "slaughter") them, then uphold the bonds; (i.e., take them captives) then
(it is) either being bounteous (i.e., "showing" bounty by setting them free)
hereafter (to them), or (exacting) ransom, until the war lays down its
encumbrances. So it shall be; and if Allah had (so) decided, He would have
vindicated Himself upon them; but that He may try some of you by means of others
(Literally: by means of some "others"). And the ones who have been killed in the
way of Allah, then He will never send their deeds into error.

Yusuf Ali

Shakir
And (as for) those who disbelieve, for them is destruction and He has made their
deeds ineffective.

And the ones who have disbelieved, then misfortune is for them, and He will make
their deeds to err away.

laws, etc.), so He has made their deeds fruitless.

That is because they are averse to that which Allah hath revealed, therefor
maketh He their actions fruitless.

That is because they hate the Revelation of Allah; so He has made their deeds
fruitless.

Dr. Ghali
That is for that they hate what Allah has sent down, so He has frustrated their
deeds.

Sahih International
Have they not traveled through the land and seen how was the end of those before
them? Allah destroyed [everything] over them, and for the disbelievers is
something comparable.
Muhsin Khan
Have they not travelled through the earth, and seen what was the end of those
before them? Allah destroyed them completely and a similar (fate awaits) the
disbelievers.
Pickthall
Have they not travelled in the land to see the nature of the consequence for
those who were before them? Allah wiped them out. And for the disbelievers there
will be the like thereof.

before them: Allah brought down destruction upon them, and the unbelievers shall
have the like of it.

rivers flow; and those who disbelieve enjoy themselves and eat as the beasts
eat, and the fire is their abode.
Dr. Ghali

righteousness to enter Gardens from beneath which rivers run; and the ones who
have disbelieved take their enjoyment and eat even as cattle (Ancam includes
cattle, camels, sheep and goats) eat; and the Fire will be their lodging.

Is the description of Paradise, which the righteous are promised, wherein are
rivers of water unaltered, rivers of milk the taste of which never changes,
rivers of wine delicious to those who drink, and rivers of purified honey, in
which they will have from all [kinds of] fruits and forgiveness from their Lord,
like [that of] those who abide eternally in the Fire and are given to drink
scalding water that will sever their intestines?
Muhsin Khan
The description of Paradise which the Muttaqun (pious - see V.2:2) have been
promised is that in it are rivers of water the taste and smell of which are not
changed; rivers of milk of which the taste never changes; rivers of wine
delicious to those who drink; and rivers of clarified honey (clear and pure)
therein for them is every kind of fruit; and forgiveness from their Lord. (Are
these) like those who shall dwell for ever in the Fire, and be given, to drink,
boiling water, so that it cuts up their bowels?
Pickthall
A similitude of the Garden which those who keep their duty (to Allah) are
promised: Therein are rivers of water unpolluted, and rivers of milk whereof the
flavour changeth not, and rivers of wine delicious to the drinkers, and rivers
of clear-run honey; therein for them is every kind of fruit, with pardon from
their Lord. (Are those who enjoy all this) like those who are immortal in the
Fire and are given boiling water to drink so that it teareth their bowels?

rivers of water incorruptible; rivers of milk of which the taste never changes;
rivers of wine, a joy to those who drink; and rivers of honey pure and clear. In
it there are for them all kinds of fruits; and Grace from their Lord. (Can those
in such Bliss) be compared to such as shall dwell for ever in the Fire, and be
given, to drink, boiling water, so that it cuts up their bowels (to pieces)?
Shakir
A parable of the garden which those guarding (against evil) are promised:
Therein are rivers of water that does not alter, and rivers of milk the taste
whereof does not change, and rivers of drink delicious to those who drink, and
rivers of honey clarified and for them therein are all fruits and protection
from their Lord. (Are these) like those who abide in the fire and who are made
to drink boiling water so it rends their bowels asunder.
Dr. Ghali
(This) is the similitude of the Garden which the pious have been promised;
therein are rivers of water not staling, and rivers of milk that does not change
in taste, and rivers of wine- a delicious (drink) to the drinkers- and rivers of
honey unadulterated; (Literally: carefully selected; clear; limpid, strained)
and therein for them are all kinds of products, (i.e., fruits) and forgiveness

Then do they await except that the Hour should come upon them unexpectedly? But
already there have come [some of] its indications. Then what good to them, when
it has come, will be their remembrance?
Muhsin Khan
Do they then await (anything) other than the Hour, that it should come upon them
suddenly? But some of its portents (indications and signs) have already come,
and when it (actually) is on them, how can they benefit then by their reminder?
Pickthall
Await they aught save the Hour, that it should come upon them unawares? And the
beginnings thereof have already come. But how, when it hath come upon them, can
they take their warning?
Yusuf Ali
Do they then only wait for the Hour,- that it should come on them of a sudden?
But already have come some tokens thereof, and when it (actually) is on them,
how can they benefit then by their admonition?
Shakir
Do they then wait for aught but the hour that it should come to them all of a
sudden? Now indeed the tokens of it have (already) come, but how shall they have
their reminder when it comes on them?
Dr. Ghali
Are they then looking for (anything) except the Hour, that it will come up to

Ayah 47:20 الأية
وَيَقُولُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَوْلَا نُزِّلَتْ سُورَةٌ ۖ فَإِذَا أُنزِلَتْ
سُورَةٌ مُّحْكَمَةٌ وَذُكِرَ فِيهَا الْقِتَالُ ۙ رَأَيْتَ الَّذِينَ فِي
قُلُوبِهِم مَّرَضٌ يَنظُرُونَ إِلَيْكَ نَظَرَ الْمَغْشِيِّ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ
الْمَوْتِ ۖ فَأَوْلَىٰ لَهُمْ
Sahih International
Those who believe say, "Why has a surah not been sent down? But when a precise
surah is revealed and fighting is mentioned therein, you see those in whose
hearts is hypocrisy looking at you with a look of one overcome by death. And
more appropriate for them [would have been]
Muhsin Khan
Those who believe say: "Why is not a Surah (chapter of the Quran) sent down (for
us)? But when a decisive Surah (explaining and ordering things) is sent down,
and fighting (Jihad - holy fighting in Allah's Cause) is mentioned (i.e.
ordained) therein, you will see those in whose hearts is a disease (of
hypocrisy) looking at you with a look of one fainting to death. But it was
better for them (hypocrites, to listen to Allah and to obey Him).
Pickthall
And those who believe say: If only a surah were revealed! But when a decisive
surah is revealed and war is mentioned therein, thou seest those in whose hearts
is a disease looking at thee with the look of men fainting unto death. Therefor
woe unto them!
Yusuf Ali
Those who believe say, "Why is not a sura sent down (for us)?" But when a sura
of basic or categorical meaning is revealed, and fighting is mentioned therein,
thou wilt see those in whose hearts is a disease looking at thee with a look of
one in swoon at the approach of death. But more fitting for them-
Shakir
And those who believe say: Why has not a chapter been revealed? But when a
decisive chapter is revealed, and fighting is mentioned therein you see those in
whose hearts is a disease look to you with the look of one fainting because of
death. Woe to them then!
Dr. Ghali
And the ones who have believed say, "Had a s?rah been successively sent down!"
Then, when a clear s?rah is sent down, and therein fighting is mentioned, you
see the ones in whose hearts is sickness looking at you with the look of one
enveloped by the swooning of death; yet worthier of them would be.

طَاعَةٌ وَقَوْلٌ مَّعْرُوفٌ ۚ فَإِذَا عَزَمَ الْأَمْرُ فَلَوْ صَدَقُوا اللَّهَ
لَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَّهُمْ
Sahih International
Obedience and good words. And when the matter [of fighting] was determined, if
they had been true to Allah , it would have been better for them.
Muhsin Khan
Obedience (to Allah) and good words (were better for them). And when the matter
(preparation for Jihad) is resolved on, then if they had been true to Allah, it
would have been better for them.
Pickthall
Obedience and a civil word. Then, when the matter is determined, if they are
loyal to Allah it will be well for them.
Yusuf Ali
Were it to obey and say what is just, and when a matter is resolved on, it were
best for them if they were true to Allah.
Shakir
Obedience and a gentle word (was proper); but when the affair becomes settled,
then if they remain true to Allah it would certainly be better for them.
Dr. Ghali
Obedience and beneficent saying. Then, when the Command is resolved, then if
they were sincere to Allah, indeed it would be more charitable (i.e., better)
for them.

Sahih International
Indeed, those who reverted back [to disbelief] after guidance had become clear
to them - Satan enticed them and prolonged hope for them.
Muhsin Khan
Verily, those who have turned back (have apostated) as disbelievers after the
guidance has been manifested to them, Shaitan (Satan) has beautified for them
(their false hopes), and (Allah) prolonged their term (age).
Pickthall
Lo! those who turn back after the guidance hath been manifested unto them, Satan
hath seduced them, and He giveth them the rein.
Yusuf Ali
Those who turn back as apostates after Guidance was clearly shown to them,- the
Evil One has instigated them and busied them up with false hopes.

Surely (as for) those who return on their backs after that guidance has become
manifest to them, the Shaitan has made it a light matter to them; and He gives
them respite.
Dr. Ghali
Surely the ones who have turned back in their traces even after the guidance has
become evident to them, Ash-Shaytan (The ever-vicious) has incited them and
Allah) has reprieved them.

That is because they followed what angered Allah and disliked [what earns] His
pleasure, so He rendered worthless their deeds.
Muhsin Khan
That is because they followed that which angered Allah, and hated that which
pleased Him. So He made their deeds fruitless.
Pickthall
That will be because they followed that which angereth Allah, and hated that
which pleaseth Him. Therefor He hath made their actions vain.
Yusuf Ali
This because they followed that which called forth the Wrath of Allah, and they
hated Allah's good pleasure; so He made their deeds of no effect.

Here you are - those invited to spend in the cause of Allah - but among you are
those who withhold [out of greed]. And whoever withholds only withholds

And if you turn away, He will replace you with another people; then they will
not be the likes of you.

Behold! You are those who are called to spend in the Cause of Allah, yet among

Behold, ye are those invited to spend (of your substance) in the Way of Allah:
But among you are some that are niggardly. But any who are niggardly are so at

that are needy. If ye turn back (from the Path), He will substitute in your
stead another people; then they would not be like you!
Shakir
Behold! you are those who are called upon to spend in Allah's way, but among you

turn back He will bring in your place another people, then they will not be like
you.
Dr. Ghali
Now, you are these called to expend in the way of Allah. Then among you (some)
are miserly; and whoever is miserly, then he is miserly only upon himself. And
Allah is the Ever-Affluent, (Literally: Ever-Rich) and you are the poor ones.
And in case you turn away, He will (readily) exchange you for another people;
thereafter they will not be your likes.
