۞ وَإِن And if wa-in you are kuntum on ʿalā a journey safarin and not walam you find tajidū a scribe kātiban then pledge farihānun in hand maqbūḍatun Then if fa-in entrusts amina one of you baʿḍukum (to) another baʿḍan then let discharge falyu-addi the one who alladhī is entrusted u'tumina his trust amānatahu And let him fear walyattaqi Allah l-laha his Lord rabbahu And (do) not walā conceal taktumū the evidence l-shahādata And whoever waman conceals it yaktum'hā then indeed he fa-innahu (is) sinful āthimun his heart qalbuhu And Allah wal-lahu of what bimā you do taʿmalūna (is) All-Knower ʿalīmun
And if you are on a journey and cannot find a scribe, then a security deposit [should be] taken. And if one of you entrusts another, then let him who is entrusted discharge his trust [faithfully] and let him fear Allāh, his Lord. And do not conceal testimony, for whoever conceals it - his heart is indeed sinful, and Allāh is Knowing of what you do.
