been ties of affection between you and him - "Oh! I wish I had been with them; then I would have achieved a great success ( a good share of booty)."

74. Let those (believers) who sell the life of this world for the Hereafter fight in the Cause of Allh, and whoso fights in the Cause of Allh, and is killed or gets victory, We shall bestow on him a great reward.

75. And what is wrong with you that you fight not in the Cause of Allh, and for those weak, illtreated and oppressed among men, women, and children, whose cry is: "Our Lord! Rescue us from this town whose people are oppressors; and raise for us from You one who will protect, and raise for us from You one who will help."

76. Those who believe, fight in the Cause of Allh, and those who disbelieve, fight in the cause of Tght (Satan, etc.). So fight you against the friends of Shaitn (Satan); Ever feeble indeed is the plot of Shaitn (Satan).

77. Have you not seen those who were told to hold back their hands (from fighting) and perform As-Salt (IqmatasSalt), and give Zakt, but when the fighting was ordained for them, behold! a section of them fear men as they fear Allh or even more. They say: "Our Lord! Why have you ordained for us fighting? Would that you had granted us respite for a short period?" Say: "Short is the enjoyment of this world. The Hereafter is (far) better for him who fears Allh, and you shall not be dealt with unjustly even equal to the Fatil (a scalish thread in the long slit of a datestone).

78. "Wheresoever you may be, death will overtake you even if you are in fortresses built up strong and high!" And if some good reaches them, they say, "This is from Allh," but if some evil befalls them, they say, "This is from you (O Muhammad )." Say: "All things are from Allh," so what is wrong with these people that they fail to understand any word?

79. Whatever of good reaches you, is from Allh, but whatever of evil befalls you, is from yourself. And We have sent you (O Muhammad ) as a Messenger to mankind, and Allh is Sufficient as a Witness.

80. He who obeys the Messenger (Muhammad ), has indeed obeyed Allh, but he who turns away, then we have not sent you (O Muhammad ) as a watcher over them.

81. They say: "We are obedient," but when they leave you (Muhammad ), a section of them spend all night in planning other than what you say. But Allh records their nightly (plots). So turn aside from them (do not punish them), and put your trust in Allh. And Allh is Ever AllSufficient as a Disposer of affairs.

82. Do they not then consider the Qur'n carefully? Had it been from other than Allh, they would surely have found therein much contradictions.

83. When there comes to them some matter touching (public) safety or fear, they make it known (among the people), if only they had referred it to the Messenger or to those charged with authority among them, the proper investigators would have understood it from them (directly). Had it not been for the Grace and Mercy of Allh upon you, you would have followed Shaitn (Satan), save a few of you.

84. Then fight (O Muhammad ) in the Cause of Allh, you are not tasked (held responsible) except for yourself, and incite the believers (to fight along with you), it may be that Allh will restrain the evil might of the disbelievers. And Allh is Stronger in Might and Stronger in punishing. 

85. Whosoever intercedes for a good cause will have the reward thereof, and whosoever intercedes for an evil cause will have a share in its burden. And Allh is Ever All-Able to do (and also an All-Witness to) everything. 

86. When you are greeted with a greeting, greet in return with what is better than it, or (at least) return it equally. Certainly, Allh is Ever a Careful Account Taker of all things.

87. Allh! L ilha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He). Surely, He will gather you together on the Day of Resurrection about which there is no doubt. And who is truer in statement than Allh?

88.
