الحشر
Al-Hashr
The First Gathering
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
In the name of God, the All-Benevolent, the Benevolent.
All that is in the heavens and on the earth has glorified God.
سبح لله ما في السموت وما في الارض
And He is the All-Powerful, the Wise.
وهو العزيز الحكيم
It is He who expelled from their abodes those who, among the People of the Scripture, disowned, in the first gathering.
هو الذي اخرج الذين كفروا من اهل الكتب من ديرهم لاول الحشر
You did not presume they would leave.
ما ظننتم ان يخرجوا
And they presumed their strongholds would insulate them from God.
وظنوا انهم مانعتهم حصونهم من الله
But God came upon them from where they did not expect.
فاتيهم الله من حيث لم يحتسبوا
And He hurled terror into their cores.
وقذف في قلوبهم الرعب
They dismantled their houses with their own hands and the hands of the believers.
يخربون بيوتهم بايديهم وايدي المومنين
So take heed, O possessors of sight.
فاعتبروا ياولي الابصر
And had God not prescribed exile for them, He would have punished them in the present life.
ولولا ان كتب الله عليهم الجلا لعذبهم في الدنيا
And theirs, in the last life, is the punishment of the Fire.
ولهم في الاخره عذاب النار
That is because they set themselves in breach against God and His messenger.
ذلك بانهم شاقوا الله ورسوله
And whoever sets himself in breach against God — God is indeed severe in sanction.
ومن يشاق الله فان الله شديد العقاب
Whatever act of kindness you interrupted, or left standing on its foundations, it is with God's permission, and so as to disgrace the oversteppers.
ما قطعتم من لينه او تركتموها قايمه علي اصولها فباذن الله وليخزي الفسقين
And whatever God restored to His messenger from them, you spurred neither horse nor mount for it.
وما افا الله علي رسوله منهم فما اوجفتم عليه من خيل ولا ركاب
But God gives His messengers power over whom He wills.
ولكن الله يسلط رسله علي من يشا
And God is capable of all things.
والله علي كل شي قدير
Whatever God restored to His messenger from the people of the cities belongs to God and the messenger, to relatives, orphans, the destitute, and the passing traveler, so that it does not rotate among the wealthy among you.
ما افا الله علي رسوله من اهل القري فلله وللرسول ولذي القربي واليتمي والمسكين وابن السبيل كي لا يكون دوله بين الاغنيا منكم
And whatever the messenger gives you, take it.
وما اتيكم الرسول فخذوه
And whatever he forbids you, abstain from it.
وما نهيكم عنه فانتهوا
And guard yourselves toward God, for God is severe in sanction.
واتقوا الله ان الله شديد العقاب
For the poor emigrants who were expelled from their abodes and goods, seeking favor from God and His pleasure, and who help God and His messenger.
للفقرا المهجرين الذين اخرجوا من ديرهم وامولهم يبتغون فضلا من الله ورضونا وينصرون الله ورسوله
Those are the veracious.
اوليك هم الصدقون
And those who had settled in the abode and in faith before them love those who have emigrated to them, and find in their chests no need for what they were given, and prefer them over themselves, even if they themselves suffer privation.
والذين تبوو الدار والايمن من قبلهم يحبون من هاجر اليهم ولا يجدون في صدورهم حاجه مما اوتوا ويوثرون علي انفسهم ولو كان بهم خصاصه
And whoever is protected from the greed of his Self — those are the ones who succeed.
ومن يوق شح نفسه فاوليك هم المفلحون
And those who came after them say: "Our Guardian, forgive us and our brothers who went ahead of us in faith, and put no rancor in our cores toward those who believe,
والذين جاو من بعدهم يقولون ربنا اغفر لنا ولاخوننا الذين سبقونا بالايمن ولا تجعل في قلوبنا غلا للذين امنوا
for, our Guardian, You are full of kindness, Benevolent."
ربنا انك روف رحيم
Have you not seen those who practiced hypocrisy saying to their brothers who, among the People of the Scripture, disowned: "If you are expelled, we will surely leave with you, and we will never defer to anyone against you; and if you are fought, we will surely help you."
الم تر الي الذين نافقوا يقولون لاخونهم الذين كفروا من اهل الكتب لين اخرجتم لنخرجن معكم ولا نطيع فيكم احدا ابدا وان قوتلتم لننصرنكم
And God testifies that they are surely liars.
والله يشهد انهم لكذبون
If they are expelled, they will not leave with them.
لين اخرجوا لا يخرجون معهم
And if they are fought, they will not help them.
ولين قوتلوا لا ينصرونهم
And even if they helped them, they would surely turn their backs, then not be helped.
ولين نصروهم ليولن الادبر ثم لا ينصرون
You inspire, in their chests, more reverence than God.
لانتم اشد رهبه في صدورهم من الله
That is because they are a people who do not understand.
ذلك بانهم قوم لا يفقهون
They will not fight you all together except in fortified cities, or from behind walls.
لا يقتلونكم جميعا الا في قري محصنه او من ورا جدر
Their violence among themselves is formidable.
باسهم بينهم شديد
You think them united, while their cores are divided.
تحسبهم جميعا وقلوبهم شتي
That is because they are a people who do not reason.
ذلك بانهم قوم لا يعقلون
They are like those shortly before them,
كمثل الذين من قبلهم قريبا
who tasted the baleful consequences of their conduct.
ذاقوا وبال امرهم
And they will have a painful punishment.
ولهم عذاب اليم
They are like the Diverter when he says to the human being: "Disown!" Then when he has disowned, he says: "I am indeed quit of you, I fear God, the Guardian of all beings."
كمثل الشيطن اذ قال للانسن اكفر فلما كفر قال اني بري منك اني اخاف الله رب العلمين
And the end of both was that they were in the Fire, abiding there eternally.
فكان عقبتهما انهما في النار خلدين فيها
And that is the recompense of the wrongdoers.
وذلك جزوا الظلمين
O you who have believed! Guard yourselves toward God, and let every Self consider what it has prepared for tomorrow.
يايها الذين امنوا اتقوا الله ولتنظر نفس ما قدمت لغد
And guard yourselves toward God,
واتقوا الله
for God is Intimately Acquainted with what you do.
ان الله خبير بما تعملون
And do not be like those who forgot God, so He made them forget themselves.
ولا تكونوا كالذين نسوا الله فانسيهم انفسهم
Those are the oversteppers.
اوليك هم الفسقون
The companions of the Fire and the companions of the Garden are not equal.
لا يستوي اصحب النار واصحب الجنه
The companions of the Garden are the triumphant.
اصحب الجنه هم الفايزون
Had We sent down this Recitation upon a mountain, you would have seen it become humble and split apart out of dread of God.
لو انزلنا هذا القران علي جبل لرايته خشعا متصدعا من خشيه الله
And these are the examples We multiply for mankind, perhaps they will reflect.
وتلك الامثل نضربها للناس لعلهم يتفكرون
He is God, there is no deity but Him.
هو الله الذي لا اله الا هو
The Knower of what escapes the senses and of what is witnessed.
علم الغيب والشهده
He is the All-Benevolent, the Benevolent.
هو الرحمن الرحيم
He is God, there is no deity but Him, the Sovereign, the Most Holy, the Peace, the Guarantor, the Prevailing, the All-Powerful, the Overpowering, the Supremely Great.
هو الله الذي لا اله الا هو الملك القدوس السلم المومن المهيمن العزيز الجبار المتكبر
Glory be to God, above what they associate with Him.
سبحن الله عما يشركون
He is God, the Creator, the Giver of existence, the Giver of form.
هو الله الخلق الباري المصور
To Him belong the most beautiful attributes.
له الاسما الحسني
All that is in the heavens and the earth glorifies Him.
يسبح له ما في السموت والارض
And He is the All-Powerful, the Wise.
وهو العزيز الحكيم
