وَإِن And if نَّكَثُوٓا۟ they break أَيْمَـٰنَهُم their oaths مِّنۢ after بَعْدِ after عَهْدِهِمْ their treaty وَطَعَنُوا۟ and defame فِى [in] دِينِكُمْ your religion فَقَـٰتِلُوٓا۟ then fight أَئِمَّةَ the leaders ٱلْكُفْرِ ۙ (of) [the] disbelief إِنَّهُمْ indeed, they لَآ no أَيْمَـٰنَ oaths لَهُمْ for them لَعَلَّهُمْ so that they may يَنتَهُونَ cease ١٢

أَلَا Will not تُقَـٰتِلُونَ you fight قَوْمًۭا a people نَّكَثُوٓا۟ who broke أَيْمَـٰنَهُمْ their oaths وَهَمُّوا۟ and determined بِإِخْرَاجِ to drive out ٱلرَّسُولِ the Messenger وَهُم and they بَدَءُوكُمْ began (to attack) you أَوَّلَ first مَرَّةٍ ۚ time أَتَخْشَوْنَهُمْ ۚ Do you fear them فَٱللَّهُ But Allah أَحَقُّ (has) more right أَن that تَخْشَوْهُ you should fear Him إِن if كُنتُم you are مُّؤْمِنِينَ believers ١٣

قَـٰتِلُوهُمْ Fight them يُعَذِّبْهُمُ Allah will punish them ٱللَّهُ Allah will punish them بِأَيْدِيكُمْ by your hands وَيُخْزِهِمْ and disgrace them وَيَنصُرْكُمْ and give you victory عَلَيْهِمْ over them وَيَشْفِ and will heal صُدُورَ (the) breasts قَوْمٍۢ (of) a people مُّؤْمِنِينَ (who are) believers ١٤

وَيُذْهِبْ And remove غَيْظَ (the) anger قُلُوبِهِمْ ۗ (of) their hearts وَيَتُوبُ And Allah accepts repentance ٱللَّهُ And Allah accepts repentance عَلَىٰ of مَن whom يَشَآءُ ۗ He wills وَٱللَّهُ And Allah عَلِيمٌ (is) All-Knower حَكِيمٌ All-Wise ١٥

أَمْ Or حَسِبْتُمْ (do) you think أَن that تُتْرَكُوا۟ you would be left وَلَمَّا while not يَعْلَمِ Allah made evident ٱللَّهُ Allah made evident ٱلَّذِينَ those who جَـٰهَدُوا۟ strive مِنكُمْ among you وَلَمْ and not يَتَّخِذُوا۟ take مِن besides Allah دُونِ besides Allah ٱللَّهِ besides Allah وَلَا and not رَسُولِهِۦ His Messenger وَلَا and not ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ the believers وَلِيجَةًۭ ۚ (as) intimates وَٱللَّهُ And Allah خَبِيرٌۢ (is) All-Aware بِمَا of what تَعْمَلُونَ you do ١٦

مَا (It) is not كَانَ (It) is not لِلْمُشْرِكِينَ for the polytheists أَن that يَعْمُرُوا۟ they maintain مَسَـٰجِدَ (the) masajid of Allah ٱللَّهِ (the) masajid of Allah شَـٰهِدِينَ (while) witnessing عَلَىٰٓ against أَنفُسِهِم themselves بِٱلْكُفْرِ ۚ [with] disbelief أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ (For) those حَبِطَتْ worthless أَعْمَـٰلُهُمْ (are) their deeds وَفِى and in ٱلنَّارِ the Fire هُمْ they خَـٰلِدُونَ (will) abide forever ١٧

إِنَّمَا Only يَعْمُرُ will maintain مَسَـٰجِدَ (the) masajid of Allah ٱللَّهِ (the) masajid of Allah مَنْ (the one) who ءَامَنَ believes بِٱللَّهِ in Allah وَٱلْيَوْمِ and the Day ٱلْـَٔاخِرِ the Last وَأَقَامَ and establishes ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ the prayer وَءَاتَى and gives ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ the zakah وَلَمْ and not يَخْشَ fear إِلَّا except ٱللَّهَ ۖ Allah فَعَسَىٰٓ Then perhaps أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ those أَن [that] يَكُونُوا۟ they are مِنَ of ٱلْمُهْتَدِينَ the guided ones ١٨
