هُوَ He ٱلَّذِىٓ (is) the One Who أَخْرَجَ expelled ٱلَّذِينَ those who كَفَرُوا۟ disbelieved مِنْ from أَهْلِ (the) People ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ (of) the Scripture مِن from دِيَـٰرِهِمْ their homes لِأَوَّلِ at (the) first ٱلْحَشْرِ ۚ gathering مَا Not ظَنَنتُمْ you think أَن that يَخْرُجُوا۟ ۖ they would leave وَظَنُّوٓا۟ and they thought أَنَّهُم that [they] مَّانِعَتُهُمْ would defend them حُصُونُهُم their fortresses مِّنَ against ٱللَّهِ Allah فَأَتَىٰهُمُ But came to them ٱللَّهُ Allah مِنْ from حَيْثُ where لَمْ not يَحْتَسِبُوا۟ ۖ they expected وَقَذَفَ and He cast فِى into قُلُوبِهِمُ their hearts ٱلرُّعْبَ ۚ [the] terror يُخْرِبُونَ they destroyed بُيُوتَهُم their houses بِأَيْدِيهِمْ with their hands وَأَيْدِى and the hands ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ (of) the believers فَٱعْتَبِرُوا۟ So take a lesson يَـٰٓأُو۟لِى O those endowed ٱلْأَبْصَـٰرِ (with) insight ٢

It is He who expelled the ones who disbelieved among the People of the Scripture from their homes at the first gathering. You did not think they would leave, and they thought that their fortresses would protect them from Allāh; but [the decree of] Allāh came upon them from where they had not expected, and He cast terror into their hearts [so] they destroyed their houses by their [own] hands and the hands of the believers. So take warning, O people of vision.

وَلَوْلَآ And if not أَن [that] كَتَبَ (had) decreed ٱللَّهُ Allah عَلَيْهِمُ for them ٱلْجَلَآءَ the exile لَعَذَّبَهُمْ certainly He (would) have punished them فِى in ٱلدُّنْيَا ۖ the world وَلَهُمْ and for them فِى in ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ the Hereafter عَذَابُ (is) a punishment ٱلنَّارِ (of) the Fire ٣

And if not that Allāh had decreed for them evacuation, He would have punished them in [this] world, and for them in the Hereafter is the punishment of the Fire.

ذَٰلِكَ That بِأَنَّهُمْ (is) because [they] شَآقُّوا۟ they opposed ٱللَّهَ Allah وَرَسُولَهُۥ ۖ and His Messenger وَمَن And whoever يُشَآقِّ opposes ٱللَّهَ Allah فَإِنَّ then indeed ٱللَّهَ Allah شَدِيدُ (is) severe ٱلْعِقَابِ (in) penalty ٤

That is because they opposed Allāh and His Messenger. And whoever opposes Allāh - then indeed, Allāh is severe in penalty.

And what Allāh restored [of property] to His Messenger from them - you did not spur for it [in an expedition] any horses or camels, but Allāh gives His messengers power over whom He wills, and Allāh is over all things competent.

مَّآ What أَفَآءَ (was) restored ٱللَّهُ (by) Allah عَلَىٰ to رَسُولِهِۦ His Messenger مِنْ from أَهْلِ (the) people ٱلْقُرَىٰ (of) the towns فَلِلَّهِ (it is) for Allah وَلِلرَّسُولِ and His Messenger وَلِذِى and for those ٱلْقُرْبَىٰ (of) the kindred وَٱلْيَتَـٰمَىٰ and the orphans وَٱلْمَسَـٰكِينِ and the needy وَٱبْنِ and ٱلسَّبِيلِ the wayfarer كَىْ that لَا not يَكُونَ it becomes دُولَةًۢ a (perpetual) circulation بَيْنَ between ٱلْأَغْنِيَآءِ the rich مِنكُمْ ۚ among you وَمَآ And whatever ءَاتَىٰكُمُ gives you ٱلرَّسُولُ the Messenger فَخُذُوهُ take it وَمَا and whatever نَهَىٰكُمْ he forbids you عَنْهُ from it فَٱنتَهُوا۟ ۚ refrain وَٱتَّقُوا۟ And fear ٱللَّهَ ۖ Allah إِنَّ Indeed ٱللَّهَ Allah شَدِيدُ (is) severe ٱلْعِقَابِ (in) penalty ٧

And what Allāh restored to His Messenger from the people of the towns - it is for Allāh and for the Messenger and for [his] near relatives and orphans and the needy and the [stranded] traveler - so that it will not be a perpetual distribution among the rich from among you. And whatever the Messenger has given you - take; and what he has forbidden you - refrain from. And fear Allāh; indeed, Allāh is severe in penalty.

وَٱلَّذِينَ And those who تَبَوَّءُو settled ٱلدَّارَ (in) the home وَٱلْإِيمَـٰنَ and (accepted) faith مِن from قَبْلِهِمْ before them يُحِبُّونَ love مَنْ (those) who هَاجَرَ emigrated إِلَيْهِمْ to them وَلَا and not يَجِدُونَ they find فِى in صُدُورِهِمْ their breasts حَاجَةًۭ any want مِّمَّآ of what أُوتُوا۟ they were given وَيُؤْثِرُونَ but prefer عَلَىٰٓ over أَنفُسِهِمْ themselves وَلَوْ even though كَانَ was بِهِمْ with them خَصَاصَةٌۭ ۚ poverty وَمَن And whoever يُوقَ is saved شُحَّ (from) stinginess نَفْسِهِۦ (of) his soul فَأُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ then those هُمُ [they] ٱلْمُفْلِحُونَ (are) the successful ones ٩

And [also for] those who were settled in the Home [i.e.,al-Madīnah] and [adopted] the faith before them. They love those who emigrated to them and find not any want in their breasts of what they [i.e., the emigrants] were given but give [them] preference over themselves, even though they are in privation. And whoever is protected from the stinginess of his soul - it is those who will be the successful.

۞ أَلَمْ Do not تَرَ you see إِلَى [to] ٱلَّذِينَ those who نَافَقُوا۟ (were) hypocrites يَقُولُونَ saying لِإِخْوَٰنِهِمُ to their brothers ٱلَّذِينَ those who كَفَرُوا۟ disbelieved مِنْ among أَهْلِ the People ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ (of) the Scripture لَئِنْ If أُخْرِجْتُمْ you are expelled لَنَخْرُجَنَّ surely we will leave مَعَكُمْ with you وَلَا and not نُطِيعُ we will obey فِيكُمْ concerning you أَحَدًا anyone أَبَدًۭا ever وَإِن and if قُوتِلْتُمْ you are fought لَنَنصُرَنَّكُمْ certainly we will help you وَٱللَّهُ And Allah يَشْهَدُ bears witness إِنَّهُمْ that they لَكَـٰذِبُونَ (are) surely liars ١١

Have you not considered those who practice hypocrisy, saying to their brothers [i.e., associates] who have disbelieved among the People of the Scripture, "If you are expelled, we will surely leave with you, and we will not obey, in regard to you, anyone - ever; and if you are fought, we will surely aid you." But Allāh testifies that they are liars.
