يَسْـَٔلُونَكَ They ask you yasalūnaka about ʿani the month l-shahri [the] sacred l-ḥarāmi (concerning) fighting qitālin in it fīhi Say qul Fighting qitālun therein fīhi (is) a great (sin) kabīrun but hindering (people) waṣaddun from ʿan (the) way sabīli (of) Allah l-lahi and disbelief wakuf'run in Him bihi and (preventing access to) Al-Masjid wal-masjidi Al-Haraam l-ḥarāmi and driving out wa-ikh'rāju its people ahlihi from it min'hu (is) greater (sin) akbaru near ʿinda Allah l-lahi And [the] oppression wal-fit'natu (is) greater akbaru than mina [the] killing l-qatli And not walā they will cease yazālūna (to) fight with you yuqātilūnakum until ḥattā they turn you away yaruddūkum from ʿan your religion dīnikum if ini they are able is'taṭāʿū And whoever waman turns away yartadid among you minkum from ʿan his religion dīnihi then dies fayamut while he wahuwa (is) a disbeliever kāfirun for those fa-ulāika became worthless ḥabiṭat their deeds aʿmāluhum in fī the world l-dun'yā and the Hereafter wal-ākhirati And those wa-ulāika (are) companions aṣḥābu (of) the Fire l-nāri they hum in it fīhā (will) abide forever khālidūna
They ask you about the sacred month - about fighting therein. Say, "Fighting therein is great [sin], but averting [people] from the way of Allāh and disbelief in Him and [preventing access to] al-Masjid al-Ḥarām and the expulsion of its people therefrom are greater [evil] in the sight of Allāh. And fitnah is greater than killing." And they will continue to fight you until they turn you back from your religion if they are able. And whoever of you reverts from his religion [to disbelief] and dies while he is a disbeliever - for those, their deeds have become worthless in this world and the Hereafter, and those are the companions of the Fire; they will abide therein eternally.
إِنَّ Indeed inna those who alladhīna believed āmanū and those who wa-alladhīna emigrated hājarū and strove wajāhadū in fī (the) way sabīli (of) Allah l-lahi those ulāika they hope yarjūna (for) Mercy raḥmata (of) Allah l-lahi And Allah wal-lahu (is) Oft-Forgiving ghafūrun Most Merciful raḥīmun
Indeed, those who have believed and those who have emigrated and fought in the cause of Allāh - those expect the mercy of Allāh. And Allāh is Forgiving and Merciful.
