Have you ˹O Prophet˺ not seen the hypocrites who say to their fellow disbelievers from the People of the Book,¹ “If you are expelled, we will certainly leave with you, and We will never obey anyone against you. And if you are fought against, we will surely help you.”? But Allah bears witness that they are truly liars.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, The Clear Quran

59:12

لَئِنۡ

أُخۡرِجُواْ

لَا

يَخۡرُجُونَ

مَعَهُمۡ

وَلَئِن

قُوتِلُواْ

لَا

يَنصُرُونَهُمۡ

وَلَئِن

نَّصَرُوهُمۡ

لَيُوَلُّنَّ

ٱلۡأَدۡبَٰرَ

ثُمَّ

لَا

يُنصَرُونَ

١٢

Indeed, if they are expelled, the hypocrites will never leave with them. And if they are fought against, the hypocrites will never help them. And even if the hypocrites did so, they would certainly flee, then the disbelievers would be left with no help.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, The Clear Quran

59:13

لَأَنتُمۡ

أَشَدُّ

رَهۡبَةٗ

فِي

صُدُورِهِم

مِّنَ

ٱللَّهِۚ

ذَٰلِكَ

بِأَنَّهُمۡ

قَوۡمٞ

لَّا

يَفۡقَهُونَ

١٣

Indeed, there is more fear in their hearts for you ˹believers˺ than for Allah. That is because they are a people who do not comprehend.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, The Clear Quran

59:14

لَا

يُقَٰتِلُونَكُمۡ

جَمِيعًا

إِلَّا

فِي

قُرٗى

مُّحَصَّنَةٍ

أَوۡ

مِن

وَرَآءِ

جُدُرِۭۚ

بَأۡسُهُم

بَيۡنَهُمۡ

شَدِيدٞۚ

تَحۡسَبُهُمۡ

جَمِيعٗا

وَقُلُوبُهُمۡ

شَتَّىٰۚ

ذَٰلِكَ

بِأَنَّهُمۡ

قَوۡمٞ

لَّا

يَعۡقِلُونَ

١٤

Even united, they would not ˹dare˺ fight against you except ˹from˺ within fortified strongholds or from behind walls. Their malice for each other is intense: you think they are united, yet their hearts are divided. That is because they are a people with no ˹real˺ understanding.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, The Clear Quran

59:15

كَمَثَلِ

ٱلَّذِينَ

مِن

قَبۡلِهِمۡ

قَرِيبٗاۖ

ذَاقُواْ

وَبَالَ

أَمۡرِهِمۡ

وَلَهُمۡ

عَذَابٌ

أَلِيمٞ

١٥

They are ˹both just˺ like those who recently went down before them:¹ they tasted the evil consequences of their doings. And they will suffer a painful punishment.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, The Clear Quran

59:16

كَمَثَلِ

ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنِ

إِذۡ

قَالَ

لِلۡإِنسَٰنِ

ٱكۡفُرۡ

فَلَمَّا

كَفَرَ

قَالَ

إِنِّي

بَرِيٓءٞ

مِّنكَ

إِنِّيٓ

أَخَافُ

ٱللَّهَ

رَبَّ

ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ

١٦

˹They are˺ like Satan when he lures someone to disbelieve. Then after they have done so, he will say ˹on Judgment Day˺, “I have absolutely nothing to do with you. I truly fear Allah—the Lord of all worlds.”¹

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, The Clear Quran

59:17

فَكَانَ

عَٰقِبَتَهُمَآ

أَنَّهُمَا

فِي

ٱلنَّارِ

خَٰلِدَيۡنِ

فِيهَاۚ

وَذَٰلِكَ

جَزَٰٓؤُاْ

ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ

١٧

So they will both end up in the Fire, staying there forever. That is the reward of the wrongdoers.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, The Clear Quran

59:18

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا

ٱلَّذِينَ

ءَامَنُواْ

ٱتَّقُواْ

ٱللَّهَ

وَلۡتَنظُرۡ

نَفۡسٞ

مَّا

قَدَّمَتۡ

لِغَدٖۖ

وَٱتَّقُواْ

ٱللَّهَۚ

إِنَّ

ٱللَّهَ

خَبِيرُۢ

بِمَا

تَعۡمَلُونَ

١٨

O believers! Be mindful of Allah and let every soul look to what ˹deeds˺ it has sent forth for tomorrow.¹ And fear Allah, ˹for˺ certainly Allah is All-Aware of what you do.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, The Clear Quran
