يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا O you yāayyuhā who alladhīna believe āmanū (Do) not lā take tattakhidhū My enemies ʿaduwwī and your enemies waʿaduwwakum (as) allies awliyāa offering tul'qūna them ilayhim love bil-mawadati while waqad they have disbelieved kafarū in what bimā came to you jāakum of mina the truth l-ḥaqi driving out yukh'rijūna the Messenger l-rasūla and yourselves wa-iyyākum because an you believe tu'minū in Allah bil-lahi your Lord rabbikum If in you kuntum come forth kharajtum (to) strive jihādan in fī My way sabīlī and (to) seek wa-ib'tighāa My Pleasure marḍātī You confide tusirrūna to them ilayhim love bil-mawadati but I Am wa-anā most knowing aʿlamu of what bimā you conceal akhfaytum and what wamā you declare aʿlantum And whoever waman does it yafʿalhu among you minkum then certainly faqad he has strayed ḍalla (from the) straight sawāa path l-sabīli
O you who have believed, do not take My enemies and your enemies as allies, extending to them affection while they have disbelieved in what came to you of the truth, having driven out the Prophet and yourselves [only] because you believe in Allāh, your Lord. If you have come out for jihād [i.e., fighting or striving] in My cause and seeking means to My approval, [take them not as friends]. You confide to them affection [i.e., instruction], but I am most knowing of what you have concealed and what you have declared. And whoever does it among you has certainly strayed from the soundness of the way.
إِن If in they gain dominance over you yathqafūkum they would be yakūnū to you lakum enemies aʿdāan and extend wayabsuṭū against you ilaykum their hands aydiyahum and their tongues wa-alsinatahum with evil bil-sūi and they desire wawaddū that law you would disbelieve takfurūna
If they gain dominance over you, they would be [i.e., behave] to you as enemies and extend against you their hands and their tongues with evil, and they wish you would disbelieve.
لَن Never lan will benefit you tanfaʿakum your relatives arḥāmukum and not walā your children awlādukum (on the) Day yawma (of) the Resurrection l-qiyāmati He will judge yafṣilu between you baynakum And Allah wal-lahu of what bimā you do taʿmalūna (is) All-Seer baṣīrun
Never will your relatives or your children benefit you; the Day of Resurrection He will judge between you. And Allāh, of what you do, is Seeing.
قَدْ Indeed qad (there) is kānat for you lakum an example us'watun good ḥasanatun in fī Ibrahim ib'rāhīma and those wa-alladhīna with him maʿahu when idh they said qālū to their people liqawmihim Indeed, we innā (are) disassociated buraāu from you minkum and from what wamimmā you worship taʿbudūna from min besides dūni Allah l-lahi We have denied kafarnā you bikum and has appeared wabadā between us baynanā and between you wabaynakumu enmity l-ʿadāwatu and hatred wal-baghḍāu forever abadan until ḥattā you believe tu'minū in Allah bil-lahi Alone waḥdahu Except illā (the) saying qawla (of) Ibrahim ib'rāhīma to his father li-abīhi Surely I ask forgiveness la-astaghfiranna for you laka but not wamā I have power amliku for you laka from mina Allah l-lahi of min anything shayin Our Lord rabbanā upon You ʿalayka we put our trust tawakkalnā and to You wa-ilayka we turn anabnā and to You wa-ilayka (is) the final return l-maṣīru
There has already been for you an excellent pattern in Abraham and those with him, when they said to their people, "Indeed, we are disassociated from you and from whatever you worship other than Allāh. We have denied you, and there has appeared between us and you animosity and hatred forever until you believe in Allāh alone" - except for the saying of Abraham to his father, "I will surely ask forgiveness for you, but I have not [power to do] for you anything against Allāh. Our Lord, upon You we have relied, and to You we have returned, and to You is the destination.
رَبَّنَا Our Lord rabbanā (do) not lā make us tajʿalnā a trial fit'natan for those who lilladhīna disbelieve kafarū and forgive wa-igh'fir us lanā our Lord rabbanā Indeed You innaka [You] anta (are) the All-Mighty l-ʿazīzu the All-Wise l-ḥakīmu
Our Lord, make us not [objects of] torment for the disbelievers and forgive us, our Lord. Indeed, it is You who is the Exalted in Might, the Wise."
