فَإِذَا Then when ٱنسَلَخَ have passed ٱلْأَشْهُرُ the sacred months ٱلْحُرُمُ the sacred months فَٱقْتُلُوا۟ then kill ٱلْمُشْرِكِينَ the polytheists حَيْثُ wherever وَجَدتُّمُوهُمْ you find them وَخُذُوهُمْ and seize them وَٱحْصُرُوهُمْ and besiege them وَٱقْعُدُوا۟ and sit (in wait) لَهُمْ for them كُلَّ (at) every مَرْصَدٍۢ ۚ place of ambush فَإِن But if تَابُوا۟ they repent وَأَقَامُوا۟ and establish ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ the prayer وَءَاتَوُا۟ and give ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ the zakah فَخَلُّوا۟ then leave سَبِيلَهُمْ ۚ their way إِنَّ Indeed ٱللَّهَ Allah غَفُورٌۭ (is) Oft-Forgiving رَّحِيمٌۭ Most Merciful ٥
And when the inviolable months have passed, then kill the polytheists wherever you find them and capture them and besiege them and sit in wait for them at every place of ambush.

وَإِنْ And if أَحَدٌۭ anyone مِّنَ of ٱلْمُشْرِكِينَ the polytheists ٱسْتَجَارَكَ seek your protection فَأَجِرْهُ then grant him protection حَتَّىٰ until يَسْمَعَ he hears كَلَـٰمَ (the) Words of Allah ٱللَّهِ (the) Words of Allah ثُمَّ Then أَبْلِغْهُ escort him مَأْمَنَهُۥ ۚ (to) his place of safety ذَٰلِكَ That بِأَنَّهُمْ (is) because they قَوْمٌۭ (are) a people لَّا (who) do not know يَعْلَمُونَ (who) do not know ٦
