وَإِذَا And when wa-idhā you are kunta among them fīhim and you lead fa-aqamta for them lahumu the prayer l-ṣalata then let stand faltaqum a group ṭāifatun of them min'hum with you maʿaka and let them take walyakhudhū their arms asliḥatahum Then when fa-idhā they have prostrated sajadū then let them be falyakūnū from min behind you warāikum and let come (forward) waltati a group ṭāifatun other ukh'rā (which has) not lam prayed yuṣallū and let them pray falyuṣallū with you maʿaka and let them take walyakhudhū their precautions ḥidh'rahum and their arms wa-asliḥatahum Wished wadda those who alladhīna disbelieved kafarū if law you neglect taghfulūna [about] ʿan your arms asliḥatikum and your baggage wa-amtiʿatikum so (that) they (can) assault fayamīlūna [upon] you ʿalaykum (in) an attack maylatan single wāḥidatan But (there is) no walā blame junāḥa upon you ʿalaykum if in was kāna with you bikum any trouble adhan (because) of min rain maṭarin or aw you are kuntum sick marḍā that an you lay down taḍaʿū your arms asliḥatakum but take wakhudhū your precautions ḥidh'rakum Indeed inna Allah l-laha has prepared aʿadda for the disbelievers lil'kāfirīna a punishment ʿadhāban humiliating muhīnan
And when you [i.e., the commander of an army] are among them and lead them in prayer,1 let a group of them stand [in prayer] with you and let them carry their arms. And when they have prostrated, let them be [in position] behind you and have the other group come forward which has not [yet] prayed and let them pray with you, taking precaution and carrying their arms. Those who disbelieve wish that you would neglect your weapons and your baggage so they could come down upon you in one [single] attack. But there is no blame upon you, if you are troubled by rain or are ill, for putting down your arms, but take precaution. Indeed, Allāh has prepared for the disbelievers a humiliating punishment.
فَإِذَا Then when fa-idhā you (have) finished qaḍaytumu the prayer l-ṣalata then remember fa-udh'kurū Allah l-laha standing qiyāman and sitting waquʿūdan and (lying) on waʿalā your sides junūbikum But when fa-idhā you are secure iṭ'manantum then establish fa-aqīmū the (regular) prayer l-ṣalata Indeed inna the prayer l-ṣalata is kānat on ʿalā the believers l-mu'minīna prescribed kitāban (at) fixed times mawqūtan
And when you have completed the prayer, remember Allāh standing, sitting, or [lying] on your sides. But when you become secure, re-establish [regular] prayer. Indeed, prayer has been decreed upon the believers a decree of specified times.
وَلَا And (do) not walā be weak tahinū in fī pursuit ib'tighāi (of) the people l-qawmi If in you are takūnū suffering talamūna then indeed, they fa-innahum are (also) suffering yalamūna like what kamā you are suffering talamūna while you (have) hope watarjūna from mina Allah l-lahi what mā not lā they hope yarjūna And is wakāna Allah l-lahu All-Knowing ʿalīman All-Wise ḥakīman
And do not weaken in pursuit of the enemy. If you should be suffering - so are they suffering as you are suffering, but you expect from Allāh that which they expect not. And Allāh is ever Knowing and Wise.
إِنَّآ Indeed innā We (have) sent down anzalnā to you ilayka the Book l-kitāba with the truth bil-ḥaqi so that you may judge litaḥkuma between bayna the people l-nāsi with what bimā has shown you arāka Allah l-lahu And (do) not walā be takun for the deceitful lil'khāinīna a pleader khaṣīman
Indeed, We have revealed to you, [O Muḥammad], the Book in truth so you may judge between the people by that which Allāh has shown you. And do not be for the deceitful an advocate.
