Quran chapter: Chapter 59: Exodus (Al-Hashr)

Have you noted those who are plagued with hypocrisy, and how they said to their companions in disbelief among the people of the scripture, “If you are evicted we will go out with you, and will never obey anyone who opposes you. If anyone fights you, we will fight on your side.” God bears witness that they are liars.

أَلَم تَرَ إِلَى الَّذينَ نافَقوا يَقولونَ لِإِخوٰنِهِمُ الَّذينَ كَفَروا مِن أَهلِ الكِتٰبِ لَئِن أُخرِجتُم لَنَخرُجَنَّ مَعَكُم وَلا نُطيعُ فيكُم أَحَدًا أَبَدًا وَإِن قوتِلتُم لَنَنصُرَنَّكُم وَاللَّهُ يَشهَدُ إِنَّهُم لَكٰذِبونَ

alam tara ilal lazeena naafaqoo yaqooloona li ikhwaanihimul lazeena kafaroo min ahlil kitaabi la’in ukhrijtum lanakhrujanna ma’akum wa laa nutee’u feekum ahadan abadanw-wa in qootiltum lanansuran nakum wallaahu yashhadu innahum lakaaziboon

In fact, if they were evicted, they would not have gone out with them, and if anyone fought them, they would not have supported them. Even if they supported them, they would have turned around and fled. They could never win.

لَئِن أُخرِجوا لا يَخرُجونَ مَعَهُم وَلَئِن قوتِلوا لا يَنصُرونَهُم وَلَئِن نَصَروهُم لَيُوَلُّنَّ الأَدبٰرَ ثُمَّ لا يُنصَرونَ

la’in ukhrijoo laa yakhrujoona ma’ahum wa la’in qootiloo laa yansuroonahum wa la’in nasaroohum la yuwallunnal adbaara summa laa yunsaroon

Indeed, you strike more terror in their hearts than their fear of God. This is because they are people who do not comprehend.

لَأَنتُم أَشَدُّ رَهبَةً فى صُدورِهِم مِنَ اللَّهِ ذٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُم قَومٌ لا يَفقَهونَ

la antum ashaddu rahbatan fee sudoorihim minal laah; zaalika bi annahum qawmul laa yafqahoon

They do not get together to fight you unless they are in well-shielded buildings, or behind walls. Their might appears formidable among themselves. You would think that they are united, when in fact their hearts are divided. This is because they are people who do not understand.

لا يُقٰتِلونَكُم جَميعًا إِلّا فى قُرًى مُحَصَّنَةٍ أَو مِن وَراءِ جُدُرٍ بَأسُهُم بَينَهُم شَديدٌ تَحسَبُهُم جَميعًا وَقُلوبُهُم شَتّىٰ ذٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُم قَومٌ لا يَعقِلونَ

laa yuqaatiloonakum jamee’an illaa fee quram muhas sanatin aw minw waraaa’i judur; baasuhum bainahum shadeed; tahsabuhum jamee’anw-wa quloobuhum shatta; zaalika biannahum qawmul laa ya’qiloon

Their fate is the same as their counterparts who preceded them. They suffered the consequences of their decisions. They have incurred a painful retribution.

كَمَثَلِ الَّذينَ مِن قَبلِهِم قَريبًا ذاقوا وَبالَ أَمرِهِم وَلَهُم عَذابٌ أَليمٌ

kamasalil lazeena min qablihim qareeban zaaqoo wabaala amrihim wa lahum ‘azaabun aleem

They are like the devil: he says to the human being, “Disbelieve,” then as soon as he disbelieves, he says, “I disown you. I fear God, Lord of the universe.”

كَمَثَلِ الشَّيطٰنِ إِذ قالَ لِلإِنسٰنِ اكفُر فَلَمّا كَفَرَ قالَ إِنّى بَرىءٌ مِنكَ إِنّى أَخافُ اللَّهَ رَبَّ العٰلَمينَ

kamasalish shaitaani izqaala lil insaanik fur falammaa kafara qaala innee bareee’um minka inneee akhaaful laaha rabbal ‘aalameen

The destiny for both of them is the Hellfire, wherein they abide forever. This is the requital for the transgressors.

فَكانَ عٰقِبَتَهُما أَنَّهُما فِى النّارِ خٰلِدَينِ فيها وَذٰلِكَ جَزٰؤُا۟ الظّٰلِمينَ

fakaana ‘aaqibatahumaaa annahumaa fin naari khaalidaini feehaa; wa zaalika jazaaa’uz zaalimeen

O you who believe, you shall reverence God, and let every soul examine what it has sent ahead for tomorrow. You shall reverence God; God is fully Cognizant of everything you do.

يٰأَيُّهَا الَّذينَ ءامَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَلتَنظُر نَفسٌ ما قَدَّمَت لِغَدٍ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ خَبيرٌ بِما تَعمَلونَ

yaaa ayyuhal lazeena aamanut taqul-laaha; waltanzur nafsum maa qaddamat lighadiw wattaqual laah; innal laaha khabeerum bimaa ta’maloon

Do not be like those who forgot God, so He made them forget themselves. These are the wicked.

وَلا تَكونوا كَالَّذينَ نَسُوا اللَّهَ فَأَنسىٰهُم أَنفُسَهُم أُولٰئِكَ هُمُ الفٰسِقونَ

wa laa takoonoo kallazeena nasul laaha fa ansaahum anfusahum; ulaaa’ika humul faasiqoon

Not equal are the dwellers of the Hellfire and the dwellers of Paradise; the dwellers of Paradise are the winners.

لا يَستَوى أَصحٰبُ النّارِ وَأَصحٰبُ الجَنَّةِ أَصحٰبُ الجَنَّةِ هُمُ الفائِزونَ

laa yastaweee as-haabun naari wa ashaabul jannah; as haabul jannati humul faaa’izoon
