بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

They ask you [Prophet] about [distributing] the battle gains. Say, ‘That is a matter for God and His Messenger, so be mindful of God and make things right between you. Obey God and His Messenger if you are true believers:

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

8:2

true believers are those whose hearts tremble with awe when God is mentioned, whose faith increases when His revelations are recited to them, who put their trust in their Lord,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

8:3

who keep up the prayer and give to others out of what We provide for them.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

8:4

Those are the ones who truly believe. They have high standing with their Lord, forgiveness, and generous provision.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

8:5

For it was your Lord who made you [Prophet] venture from your home for a true purpose––though a group of the believers disliked it

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

8:6

and argued with you about the truth after it had been made clear, as if they were being driven towards a death they could see with their own eyes.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

8:7

Remember how God promised you [believers] that one of the two enemy groups would fall to you: you wanted the unarmed group to be yours, but it was God’s will to establish the truth according to His Word and to finish off the disbelievers––

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

8:8

to prove the Truth to be true, and the false to be false, much as the guilty might dislike it.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

8:9

When you begged your Lord for help, He answered you, ‘I will reinforce you with a thousand angels in succession.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem
