They ask you ˹O Prophet˺ regarding the spoils of war. Say, “Their distribution is decided by Allah and His Messenger. So be mindful of Allah, settle your affairs, and obey Allah and His Messenger if you are ˹true˺ believers.”

إِنَّمَا

ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنُونَ

ٱلَّذِينَ

إِذَا

ذُكِرَ

ٱللَّهُ

وَجِلَتۡ

قُلُوبُهُمۡ

وَإِذَا

تُلِيَتۡ

عَلَيۡهِمۡ

ءَايَٰتُهُۥ

زَادَتۡهُمۡ

إِيمَٰنٗا

وَعَلَىٰ

رَبِّهِمۡ

يَتَوَكَّلُونَ

لَكُمۡ

وَتَوَدُّونَ

أَنَّ

غَيۡرَ

ذَاتِ

ٱلشَّوۡكَةِ

تَكُونُ

لَكُمۡ

وَيُرِيدُ

ٱللَّهُ

أَن

يُحِقَّ

ٱلۡحَقَّ

بِكَلِمَٰتِهِۦ

وَيَقۡطَعَ

دَابِرَ

ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ

˹Remember, O believers,˺ when Allah promised ˹to give˺ you the upper hand over either target, you wished to capture the unarmed party.¹ But it was Allah’s Will to establish the truth by His Words and uproot the disbelievers;
