In the Name
of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
[49.1] O you
who believe! be not forward in the presence of Allah and His Apostle, and be careful of
(your duty to) Allah; surely Allah is Hearing, Knowing.
[49.2] O you
who believe! do not raise your voices above the voice of the Prophet, and do not speak
loud to him as you speak loud to one another, lest your deeds became null while you do not
perceive.
[49.3]
Surely those who lower their voices before Allah's Apostle are they whose hearts Allah has
proved for guarding (against evil); they shall have forgiveness and a great reward.
[49.4] (As
for) those who call out to you from behind the private chambers, surely most of them do
not understand.
[49.5] And
if they wait patiently until you come out to them, it would certainly be better for them,
and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
[49.6] O you
who believe! if an evil-doer comes to you with a report, look carefully into it, lest you
harm a people in ignorance, then be sorry for what you have done.
[49.7] And
know that among you is Allah's Apostle; should he obey you in many a matter, you would
surely fall into distress, but Allah has endeared the faith to you and has made it seemly
in your hearts, and He has made hateful to you unbelief and transgression and
disobedience; these it is that are the followers of a right way.
[49.8] By
grace from Allah and as a favor; and Allah is Knowing, Wise.
[49.9] And
if two parties of the believers quarrel, make peace between them; but if one of them acts
wrongfully towards the other, fight that which acts wrongfully until it returns to Allah's
command; then if it returns, make peace between them with justice and act equitably;
surely Allah loves those who act equitably.
[49.10] The
believers are but brethren, therefore make peace between your brethren and be careful of
(your duty to) Allah that mercy may be had on you.
[49.11] O
you who believe! let not (one) people laugh at (another) people perchance they may be
better than they, nor let women (laugh) at (other) women, perchance they may be better
than they; and do not find fault with your own people nor call one another by nicknames;
evil is a bad name after faith, and whoever does not turn, these it is that are the
unjust.
[49.12] O
you who believe! avoid most of suspicion, for surely suspicion in some cases is a sin, and
do not spy nor let some of you backbite others. Does one of you like to eat the flesh of
his dead brother? But you abhor it; and be careful of (your duty to) Allah, surely Allah
is Oft-returning (to mercy), Merciful.
[49.13] O
you men! surely We have created you of a male and a female, and made you tribes and
families that you may know each other; surely the most honorable of you with Allah is the
one among you most careful (of his duty); surely Allah is Knowing, Aware.
[49.14] The
dwellers of the desert say: We believe. Say: You do not believe but say, We submit; and
faith has not yet entered into your hearts; and if you obey Allah and His Apostle, He will
not diminish aught of your deeds; surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
[49.15] The
believers are only those who believe in Allah and His Apostle then they doubt not and
struggle hard with their wealth and their lives in the way of Allah; they are the truthful
ones.
[49.16] Say:
Do you apprize Allah of your religion, and Allah knows what is in the heavens and what is
in the earth; and Allah is Cognizant of all things.
[49.17] They
think that they lay you under an obligation by becoming Muslims. Say: Lay me not under
obligation by your Islam: rather Allah lays you under an obligation by guiding you to the
faith if you are truthful.
[49.18]
Surely Allah knows the unseen things of the heavens and the earth; and Allah sees what you
do.
