When it is said to them, “Come to Allah’s revelations and to the Messenger,” you see the hypocrites turn away from you stubbornly.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, The Clear Quran

4:62

فَكَيۡفَ

إِذَآ

أَصَٰبَتۡهُم

مُّصِيبَةُۢ

بِمَا

قَدَّمَتۡ

أَيۡدِيهِمۡ

ثُمَّ

جَآءُوكَ

يَحۡلِفُونَ

بِٱللَّهِ

إِنۡ

أَرَدۡنَآ

إِلَّآ

إِحۡسَٰنٗا

وَتَوۡفِيقًا

٦٢

How ˹horrible˺ will it be if a disaster strikes them because of what their hands have done, then they come to you swearing by Allah, “We intended nothing but goodwill and reconciliation.”

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, The Clear Quran

4:63

أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ

ٱلَّذِينَ

يَعۡلَمُ

ٱللَّهُ

مَا

فِي

قُلُوبِهِمۡ

فَأَعۡرِضۡ

عَنۡهُمۡ

وَعِظۡهُمۡ

وَقُل

لَّهُمۡ

فِيٓ

أَنفُسِهِمۡ

قَوۡلَۢا

بَلِيغٗا

٦٣

˹Only˺ Allah knows what is in their hearts. So turn away from them, caution them, and give them advice that will shake their very souls.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, The Clear Quran

4:64

وَمَآ

أَرۡسَلۡنَا

مِن

رَّسُولٍ

إِلَّا

لِيُطَاعَ

بِإِذۡنِ

ٱللَّهِۚ

وَلَوۡ

أَنَّهُمۡ

إِذ

ظَّلَمُوٓاْ

أَنفُسَهُمۡ

جَآءُوكَ

فَٱسۡتَغۡفَرُواْ

ٱللَّهَ

وَٱسۡتَغۡفَرَ

لَهُمُ

ٱلرَّسُولُ

لَوَجَدُواْ

ٱللَّهَ

تَوَّابٗا

رَّحِيمٗا

٦٤

We only sent messengers to be obeyed by Allah’s Will. If only those ˹hypocrites˺ came to you ˹O Prophet˺—after wronging themselves—seeking Allah’s forgiveness and the Messenger prayed for their forgiveness, they would have certainly found Allah ever Accepting of Repentance, Most Merciful.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, The Clear Quran

4:65

فَلَا

وَرَبِّكَ

لَا

يُؤۡمِنُونَ

حَتَّىٰ

يُحَكِّمُوكَ

فِيمَا

شَجَرَ

بَيۡنَهُمۡ

ثُمَّ

لَا

يَجِدُواْ

فِيٓ

أَنفُسِهِمۡ

حَرَجٗا

مِّمَّا

قَضَيۡتَ

وَيُسَلِّمُواْ

تَسۡلِيمٗا

٦٥

But no! By your Lord, they will never be ˹true˺ believers until they accept you ˹O Prophet˺ as the judge in their disputes, and find no resistance within themselves against your decision and submit wholeheartedly.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, The Clear Quran

4:66

وَلَوۡ

أَنَّا

كَتَبۡنَا

عَلَيۡهِمۡ

أَنِ

ٱقۡتُلُوٓاْ

أَنفُسَكُمۡ

أَوِ

ٱخۡرُجُواْ

مِن

دِيَٰرِكُم

مَّا

فَعَلُوهُ

إِلَّا

قَلِيلٞ

مِّنۡهُمۡۖ

وَلَوۡ

أَنَّهُمۡ

فَعَلُواْ

مَا

يُوعَظُونَ

بِهِۦ

لَكَانَ

خَيۡرٗا

لَّهُمۡ

وَأَشَدَّ

تَثۡبِيتٗا

٦٦

If We had commanded them to sacrifice themselves or abandon their homes, none would have obeyed except for a few. Had they done what they were advised to do,¹ it would have certainly been far better for them and more reassuring,

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, The Clear Quran

4:67

وَإِذٗا

لَّأٓتَيۡنَٰهُم

مِّن

لَّدُنَّآ

أَجۡرًا

عَظِيمٗا

صِرَٰطٗا

مُّسۡتَقِيمٗا

وَمَن

يُطِعِ

ٱلَّذِينَ

أَنۡعَمَ

ٱللَّهُ

عَلَيۡهِم

مِّنَ

ٱلنَّبِيِّـۧنَ

وَٱلصِّدِّيقِينَ

وَٱلشُّهَدَآءِ

وَٱلصَّٰلِحِينَۚ

وَحَسُنَ

أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ

رَفِيقٗا

٦٩

And whoever obeys Allah and the Messenger will be in the company of those blessed by Allah: the prophets, the people of truth, the martyrs, and the righteous—what honourable company!
