Tawbah (Repentance)
9:101

وَمِمَّنْ حَوْلَكُم مِّنَ ٱلْأَعْرَابِ مُنَٰفِقُونَ  ۖ وَمِنْ أَهْلِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ  ۖ مَرَدُواْ عَلَى ٱلنِّفَاقِ لَا تَعْلَمُهُمْ  ۖ نَحْنُ نَعْلَمُهُمْ  ۚ سَنُعَذِّبُهُم مَّرَّتَيْنِ ثُمَّ يُرَدُّونَ إِلَىٰ عَذَابٍ عَظِيمٍ

вəмиммəн həулəкум-минəль-ə'рōōби мунəəфиќуун, вəмин əhлиль-мəдиинəh, мəрōдуу 'əлəəн-нифəəќи лəə тə'лəмуhум, нəhну нə'лəмуhум, сəну'əз̃з̃ибуhум-мəррōтəйни c̃уммə йурōддуунə илəə 'əз̃əəбин 'əз̃ыым

There are hypocrites among the Bedouins around you and among the townspeople of Madinah, steeped in hypocrisy. You do not know them; We know them, and We will punish them twice, then they shall be consigned to a great punishment.

9:102

وَءَاخَرُونَ ٱعْتَرَفُواْ بِذُنُوبِهِمْ خَلَطُواْ عَمَلًا صَٰلِحًا وَءَاخَرَ سَيِّئًا عَسَى ٱللَّهُ أَن يَتُوبَ عَلَيْهِمْ  ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ

вə`əəхōруунə-'тəрōфуу биз̃унуубиhим хōлəтуу 'əмəлəн сōōлиhəу-вə`əəхōрō сəййи`əн 'əсəл-лаhу əй-йəтуубə 'əлэйhим, иннəл-лаhə ґōфуурур-рōhиим

[There are] others who have confessed to their sins, having mixed up righteous conduct with other that was evil. Maybe Allah will accept their repentance. Indeed Allah is all-forgiving, all-merciful.

9:103

خُذْ مِنْ أَمْوَٰلِهِمْ صَدَقَةً تُطَهِّرُهُمْ وَتُزَكِّيهِم بِهَا وَصَلِّ عَلَيْهِمْ  ۖ إِنَّ صَلَوٰتَكَ سَكَنٌ لَّهُمْ  ۗ وَٱللَّهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ

хуз̃ мин əмвəəлиhим сōдəќōтəн тутōhhируhум вəтузəккииhимм-биhəə вəсōлли 'əлэйhим, иннə сōлəəтəкə сəкəнуль-лəhум, вəл-лаhу сəмии'ун 'əлиим

Take charity from their possessions to cleanse them and purify them thereby, and bless them. Indeed your blessing is a comfort to them, and Allah is all-hearing, all-knowing.

9:104

أَلَمْ يَعْلَمُوٓاْ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ يَقْبَلُ ٱلتَّوْبَةَ عَنْ عِبَادِهِۦ وَيَأْخُذُ ٱلصَّدَقَٰتِ وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلتَّوَّابُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ

əлəм йə'лəмуу əннəл-лаhə hувə йəќбəлют-тəубəтə 'əн 'ибəəдиhи вəйə`хуз̃ус-сōдəќōōти вə`əннəл-лаhə hувəт-тəувəəбур-рōhиим

Do they not know that it is Allah who accepts the repentance of His servants and receives the charities, and that it is Allah who is the All-clement, the All-merciful?

9:105

وَقُلِ ٱعْمَلُواْ فَسَيَرَى ٱللَّهُ عَمَلَكُمْ وَرَسُولُهُۥ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ  ۖ وَسَتُرَدُّونَ إِلَىٰ عَٰلِمِ ٱلْغَيْبِ وَٱلشَّهَٰدَةِ فَيُنَبِّئُكُم بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ

вəќули-'мəлюю фəсəйəрōōл-лаhу 'əмəлəкум вəрōсуулюhу вəəльму`минуун, вəсəтурōддуунə илəə 'əəлимиль-ґōйби вəш-шəhəəдəти фəйунəбби`укумм-бимəə куŋŋтум тə'мəлююн

And say, ‘Go on working: Allah will see your conduct, and His Apostle and the faithful [as well], and you will be returned to the Knower of the sensible and the Unseen, and He will inform you concerning what you used to do.

9:106

وَءَاخَرُونَ مُرْجَوْنَ لِأَمْرِ ٱللَّهِ إِمَّا يُعَذِّبُهُمْ وَإِمَّا يَتُوبُ عَلَيْهِمْ  ۗ وَٱللَّهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ

вə`əəхōруунə мурджəунə ли`əмриль-лəhи иммəə йу'əз̃з̃ибуhум вə`иммəə йəтуубу 'əлэйhим, вəл-лаhу 'əлиимун həкиим

[There are] others waiting Allah’s edict: either He shall punish them, or turn to them clemently, and Allah is all-knowing, all-wise.

9:107

وَٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّخَذُواْ مَسْجِدًا ضِرَارًا وَكُفْرًا وَتَفْرِيقًۢا بَيْنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَإِرْصَادًا لِّمَنْ حَارَبَ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ مِن قَبْلُ  ۚ وَلَيَحْلِفُنَّ إِنْ أَرَدْنَآ إِلَّا ٱلْحُسْنَىٰ  ۖ وَٱللَّهُ يَشْهَدُ إِنَّهُمْ لَكَٰذِبُونَ

вəəльлəз̃иинə-ттəхōз̃уу мəсджидəн дырōōрōу-вəкуфрōу-вəтəфрииќōмм-бэйнəль-му`миниинə вə`ирсōōдəл-лимəн həəрōбəл-лаhə вəрōсуулəhу миŋŋ-ќōбль, вəлəйəhлифуннə ин əрōднəə ильлəəль-hуснəə, вəл-лаhу йəшhəду иннəhум лəкəəз̃ибуун

As for those who took to a mosque for sabotage and for defiance, and to cause division among the faithful, and for the purpose of ambush [used] by those who have fought Allah and His Apostle before—they will surely swear, ‘We desired nothing but good,’ and Allah bears witness that they are indeed liars.

9:108

لَا تَقُمْ فِيهِ أَبَدًا  ۚ لَّمَسْجِدٌ أُسِّسَ عَلَى ٱلتَّقْوَىٰ مِنْ أَوَّلِ يَوْمٍ أَحَقُّ أَن تَقُومَ فِيهِ  ۚ فِيهِ رِجَالٌ يُحِبُّونَ أَن يَتَطَهَّرُواْ  ۚ وَٱللَّهُ يُحِبُّ ٱلْمُطَّهِّرِينَ

лəə тəќум фииhи əбəдə, лəмəсджидун уссисə 'əлəəт-тəќвəə мин əувəли йəумин əhəќќу əŋŋ-тəќуумə фииh, фииhи риджəəлюй-йуhиббуунə əй-йəтəтōhhəруу, вəл-лаhу йуhиббуль-муттōhhириин

Do not stand in it ever! A mosque founded on Godwariness from the [very] first day is worthier that you stand in it [for prayer]. Therein are men who love to keep pure, and Allah loves those who keep pure.

9:109

أَفَمَنْ أَسَّسَ بُنْيَٰنَهُۥ عَلَىٰ تَقْوَىٰ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ وَرِضْوَٰنٍ خَيْرٌ أَم مَّنْ أَسَّسَ بُنْيَٰنَهُۥ عَلَىٰ شَفَا جُرُفٍ هَارٍ فَٱنْهَارَ بِهِۦ فِى نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ  ۗ وَٱللَّهُ لَا يَهْدِى ٱلْقَوْمَ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ

əфəмəн əссəсə бунйəəнəhу 'əлəə тəќвəə минəл-лаhи вəридвəəнин хōйрун əм-мəн əссəсə бунйəəнəhу 'əлəə шəфəə джуруфин həəрин фəəнhəəрō биhи фии нəəри джəhəннəм, вəл-лаhу лəə йəhдииль-ќōумəз̃-з̃ōōлимиин

Is he who founds his building on Godwariness and [the pursuit of Allah’s] pleasure better-off or he who founds his building on the brink of a collapsing bank which collapses with him into the fire of hell? Allah does not guide the wrongdoing lot.

9:110

لَا يَزَالُ بُنْيَٰنُهُمُ ٱلَّذِى بَنَوْاْ رِيبَةً فِى قُلُوبِهِمْ إِلَّآ أَن تَقَطَّعَ قُلُوبُهُمْ  ۗ وَٱللَّهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ

лəə йəзəəлю бунйəəнуhумуль-лəз̃ии бəнəу риибəтəн фии ќулююбиhим ильлəə əŋŋ-тəќōттō'ə ќулююбуhум, вəл-лаhу 'əлиимун həкиим

The building they have built will never cease to be [a source of] disquiet in their hearts until their hearts are cut into pieces, and Allah is all-knowing, all-wise.
