أَلَمْ Do not alam you see tara that anna Allah l-laha knows yaʿlamu whatever mā (is) in fī the heavens l-samāwāti and whatever wamā (is) in fī the earth l-arḍi Not mā there is yakūnu any min secret counsel najwā (of) three thalāthatin but illā He (is) huwa (the) fourth of them rābiʿuhum and not walā five khamsatin but illā He (is) huwa (the) sixth of them sādisuhum and not walā less adnā than min that dhālika and not walā more akthara but illā He huwa (is) with them maʿahum wherever ayna wherever mā they are kānū Then thumma He will inform them yunabbi-uhum of what bimā they did ʿamilū (on the) Day yawma (of) the Resurrection l-qiyāmati Indeed inna Allah l-laha of every bikulli thing shayin (is) All-Knower ʿalīmun
Have you not considered that Allāh knows what is in the heavens and what is on the earth? There are not three in a private conversation but that He is the fourth of them,1 nor are there five but that He is the sixth of them - and no less than that and no more except that He is with them [in knowledge] wherever they are. Then He will inform them of what they did, on the Day of Resurrection. Indeed Allāh is, of all things, Knowing.
أَلَمْ Do not alam you see tara [to] ilā those who alladhīna were forbidden nuhū from ʿani secret counsels l-najwā then thumma they return yaʿūdūna to what limā they were forbidden nuhū from [it] ʿanhu and they hold secret counsels wayatanājawna for sin bil-ith'mi and aggression wal-ʿud'wāni and disobedience wamaʿṣiyati (to) the Messenger l-rasūli And when wa-idhā they come to you jāūka they greet you ḥayyawka with what bimā not lam greets you yuḥayyika therewith bihi Allah l-lahu and they say wayaqūlūna among fī themselves anfusihim Why (does) not lawlā Allah punish us yuʿadhibunā Allah punish us l-lahu for what bimā we say naqūlu Sufficient (for) them ḥasbuhum (is) Hell jahannamu they will burn in it yaṣlawnahā and worst is fabi'sa the destination l-maṣīru
Have you not considered those who were forbidden from private conversation [i.e., ridicule and conspiracy] and then return to that which they were forbidden and converse among themselves about sin and aggression and disobedience to the Messenger? And when they come to you, they greet you with that [word] by which Allāh does not greet you1 and say among themselves, "Why does Allāh not punish us for what we say?" Sufficient for them is Hell, which they will [enter to] burn, and wretched is the destination.
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا O you who believe yāayyuhā O you who believe alladhīna O you who believe āmanū When idhā you hold secret counsel tanājaytum then (do) not falā hold secret counsel tatanājaw for sin bil-ith'mi and aggression wal-ʿud'wāni and disobedience wamaʿṣiyati (to) the Messenger l-rasūli but hold secret counsel watanājaw for righteousness bil-biri and piety wal-taqwā And fear wa-ittaqū Allah l-laha the One Who alladhī to Him ilayhi you will be gathered tuḥ'sharūna
O you who have believed, when you converse privately, do not converse about sin and aggression and disobedience to the Messenger but converse about righteousness and piety. And fear Allāh, to whom you will be gathered.
إِنَّمَا Only innamā the secret counsels l-najwā (are) from mina the Shaitaan l-shayṭāni that he may grieve liyaḥzuna those who alladhīna believe āmanū but not walaysa he (can) harm them biḍārrihim (in) anything shayan except illā by Allah's permission bi-idh'ni by Allah's permission l-lahi And upon waʿalā Allah l-lahi let put (their) trust falyatawakkali the believers l-mu'minūna
Private conversation is only from Satan that he may grieve those who have believed,1 but he will not harm them at all except by permission of Allāh. And upon Allāh let the believers rely.
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا O you who believe yāayyuhā O you who believe alladhīna O you who believe āmanū When idhā it is said qīla to you lakum Make room tafassaḥū in fī the assemblies l-majālisi then make room fa-if'saḥū Allah will make room yafsaḥi Allah will make room l-lahu for you lakum And when wa-idhā it is said qīla Rise up unshuzū then rise up fa-unshuzū Allah will raise yarfaʿi Allah will raise l-lahu those who alladhīna believe āmanū among you minkum and those who wa-alladhīna were given ūtū the knowledge l-ʿil'ma (in) degrees darajātin And Allah wal-lahu of what bimā you do taʿmalūna (is) All-Aware khabīrun
O you who have believed, when you are told, "Space yourselves" in assemblies, then make space; Allāh will make space for you.1 And when you are told, "Arise,"2 then arise; Allāh will raise those who have believed among you and those who were given knowledge, by degrees. And Allāh is Aware of what you do.
