[ Holy Quran – Chapter : 33 - Surat : Al-Ahzab ( The Confederates ) – Verses : 1 - 73 ]
In the name of Allah the Almighty God , the Most Beneficent , the Most Merciful .
O Prophet (Muhammad SAW)! Keep your duty to Allâh, and obey not the
disbelievers and the hypocrites (i.e., do not follow their advice). Verily,
Allâh is Ever All¬Knower, All¬Wise. (1) And
follow that which is revealed to you from your Lord. Verily, Allâh is
Well¬Acquainted with what you do. (2) And put your trust in Allâh, and
Sufficient is Allâh as a Wakîl (Trustee, or Disposer of affairs). (3) Allâh has
not made for any man two hearts inside his body. Neither has He made your wives
whom you declare to be like your mothers' backs, your real mothers. [Az¬Zihâr
is the saying of a husband to his wife, "You
are to me like the back of my mother" i.e. You are unlawful for me to
approach.][], nor has He made your adopted sons your real sons. That is but
your saying with your mouths. But Allâh says the truth, and He guides to the
(Right) Way. (4) Call them (adopted sons) by (the names of) their fathers, that
is more just with Allâh. But if you know not their
father's (names, call them) your brothers in faith and Mawâlîkum (your freed
slaves). And there is no sin on you concerning that in which you
made a mistake, except in regard to what your hearts deliberately intend. And
Allâh is Ever Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
(5) The Prophet is closer to the believers than their ownselves[],
and his wives are their (believers') mothers (as regards respect and marriage).
And blood relations among each other have closer personal ties in the Decree of
Allâh (regarding inheritance) than (the brotherhood of) the believers and the
Muhajirûn (emigrants from Makkah), except that you do kindness to those
brothers (when the Prophet SAW joined them in brotherhood ties). This has been
written in the (Allâh's Book of Divine) Decrees (Al¬Lauh Al¬Mahfûz)." (6)
And (remember) when We took from the
Prophets their covenant, and from you (O Muhammad SAW), and from Nûh (Noah),
Ibrâhim (Abraham), Mûsa (Moses), and 'Īsā (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary). We
took from them a strong covenant.[] (7) That He may
ask the truthful (Allâh's Messengers and His Prophets) about their truth (i.e.
the conveyance of Allâh's Message that which they were charged with). And He
has prepared for the disbelievers a painful torment (Hell-fire). (8) O you who
believe! Remember Allâh's Favour to you, when there came against you hosts, and
We sent against them a wind and forces that you saw not [i.e. troops of angels
during the battle of Al¬Ahzâb (the Confederates)]. And Allâh is Ever All¬Seer of what you do. (9) When they came upon
you from above you and from below you, and when the eyes grew wild and the
hearts reached to the throats, and you were harbouring doubts about Allâh. (10)
There, the believers were tried and shaken with a mighty shaking. (11) And when
the hypocrites and those in whose hearts is a disease (of doubts) said:
"Allâh and His Messenger (SAW) promised us nothing but delusion!" (12)
And when a party of them said: "O people of Yathrib (Al¬Madinah)! There is
no stand (possible) for you (against the enemy attack!) Therefore go
back!" And a band of them ask for permission of the Prophet ( SAW) saying: "Truly, our homes lie open (to the
enemy)." And they lay not open. They but wished to flee. (13) And if the
enemy had entered from all sides (of the city), and they had been exhorted to
Al¬Fitnah (i.e. to renegade from Islâm to polytheism) they would surely have
committed it and would have hesitated thereupon but little. (14) And indeed
they had already made a covenant with Allâh not to turn their backs, and a
covenant with Allâh must be answered for. (15)Say (O Muhammad SAW to these
hypocrites who ask your permission to run away from you): "Flight will not
avail you if you flee from death or killing, and then you will enjoy no more
than a little while!" (16) Say: "Who is he who can protect you from
Allâh if He intends to harm you, or intends mercy on you?" And they will
not find, besides Allâh, for themselves any Walî (protector, supporter) or any
helper. (17) Allâh already knows those among you who keep back (men) from
fighting in Allâh's Cause, and those who say to their brethren "Come here
towards us," while they (themselves) come not to the battle except a little. (18) Being miserly towards you (as
regards help and aid in Allâh's Cause). Then when fear comes, you will see them
looking to you, their eyes revolving like (those of) one over whom hovers
death, but when the fear departs, they will smite you with sharp tongues,
miserly towards (spending anything in any) good (and only covetous of booty and
wealth). Such have not believed. Therefore Allâh makes their deeds fruitless,
and that is ever easy for Allâh. (19) They think that Al¬Ahzâb (the
Confederates) have not yet withdrawn, and if Al¬Ahzâb (the Confederates) should
come (again), they would wish they were in the deserts (wandering) among the
bedouins, seeking news about you (from a far place); and if they (happen) to be
among you, they would not fight but little. (20) Indeed in the Messenger of
Allâh (Muhammad SAW) you have a good example to follow for him who hopes for
(the Meeting with) Allâh and the Last Day and remembers Allâh much. (21) And
when the believers saw Al¬Ahzâb (the Confederates), they said: "This is
what Allâh and His Messenger (Muhammad SAW) had promised us, and Allâh and His
Messenger (Muhammad SAW) had spoken the truth, And it
only added to their faith and to their submissiveness (to Allâh). (22)Among the
believers are men who have been true to their covenant with Allâh [i.e. they
have gone out for Jihâd (holy fighting), and showed not their backs to the
disbelievers], of them some have fulfilled their obligations (i.e. have been
martyred), and some of them are still waiting, but they have never changed
[i.e.they never proved treacherous to their covenant which they concluded with
Allâh] in the least[] (23) That Allâh may reward the men of truth for their
truth (i.e. for their patience at the accomplishment of that which they
covenanted with Allâh), and punish the hypocrites if He wills or accept their
repentance by turning to them (in Mercy). Verily, Allâh is Oft¬Forgiving, Most
Merciful. (24) And Allâh drove back those who disbelieved in their rage, they gained no advantage (booty). Allâh sufficed
for the believers in the fighting (by sending against the disbelievers a severe
wind and troops of angels). And Allâh is Ever All¬Strong,
All¬Mighty. (25) And those of the people of the Scripture who backed them (the
disbelievers) Allâh brought them down from their forts and cast terror into
their hearts, (so that) a group (of them) you killed, and a group (of them) you
made captives. (26) And He caused you to inherit their lands, and their houses,
and their riches, and a land which you had not trodden (before). And Allâh is
Able to do all things. (27) O Prophet (Muhammad SAW)! Say to your wives: If you
desire the life of this world, and its glitter, then come!
I will make a provision for you and set you free in a handsome manner (divorce).[] (28) But if you desire Allâh and His Messenger, and the
home of the Hereafter, then verily, Allâh has prepared for Al¬Muhsinât
(good¬doers) amongst you an enormous reward. (29) O wives of the Prophet!
Whoever of you commits an open illegal sexual intercourse, the torment for her
will be doubled, and that is ever easy for Allâh. (30)And whosoever of you is
obedient to Allâh and His Messenger SAW , and
does righteous good deeds, We shall give her, her reward twice over, and We
have prepared for her Rizqan Karim (a noble provision -Paradise). (31) O wives
of the Prophet! You are not like any other women. If you keep your duty (to
Allâh), then be not soft in speech, lest he in whose heart is a disease (of
hypocrisy, or evil desire for adultery) should be moved with desire, but speak
in an honourable manner. (32) And stay in your houses, and do not display
yourselves like that of the times of ignorance, and perform As-Salât
(Iqamât¬as¬Salât), and give Zakât and obey Allâh and His Messenger. Allâh
wishes only to remove Ar¬Rijs (evil deeds and sins) from you, O members of the
family (of the Prophet SAW), and to purify you with a thorough purification. (33)
And remember (O you the members of the Prophet's family, the Graces of your
Lord), that which is recited in your houses of the Verses of Allâh and
Al¬Hikmah (i.e. Prophet's Sunnah - legal ways, so give your thanks to Allâh and
glorify His Praises for this Qur'an and the Sunnah). Verily, Allâh is Ever Most
Courteous, Well¬Acquainted with all things. (34) Verily, the Muslims (those who
submit to Allâh in Islâm) men and women, the believers men and women (who
believe in Islâmic Monotheism), the men and the women who are obedient (to
Allâh), the men and women who are truthful (in their speech and deeds), the men
and the women who are patient (in performing all the duties which Allâh has
ordered and in abstaining from all that Allâh has forbidden), the men and the
women who are humble (before their Lord Allâh), the men and the women who give
Sadaqât (i.e. Zakât, and alms), the men and the women who observe Saum (fast)
(the obligatory fasting during the month of Ramadân, and the optional Nawâfil
fasting), the men and the women who guard their chastity (from illegal sexual
acts) and the men and the women who remember Allâh much with their hearts and
tongues. Allâh has prepared for them forgiveness and a great reward
(i.e. Paradise). (35)It is not for a believer, man or woman, when Allâh
and His Messenger have decreed a matter that they should have any option in
their decision. And whoever disobeys Allâh and His Messenger, he has indeed
strayed in to a plain error. (36) And (remember) when you said to him (Zaid bin
Hârithah radhiallahu'anhu the freed¬slave of the Prophet SAW) on whom Allâh has
bestowed Grace (by guiding him to Islâm) and you (O Muhammad SAW too) have done
favour (by manumitting him) "Keep your wife to yourself, and fear
Allâh." But you did hide in yourself (i.e. what Allâh has already made
known to you that He will give her to you in marriage) that which Allâh will
make manifest, you did fear the people (i.e., their saying that Muhammad SAW
married the divorced wife of his manumitted slave) whereas Allâh had a better
right that you should fear Him. So when Zaid had accomplished his desire from
her (i.e. divorced her), We gave her to you in marriage, so that (in future) there
may be no difficulty to the believers in respect of (the marriage of) the wives
of their adopted sons when the latter have no desire to keep them (i.e. they
have divorced them). And Allâh's Command must be fulfilled. (37) There is no
blame on the Prophet (SAW) in that which Allâh has made legal for him.That has
been Allâh's Way with those who have passed away of (the Prophets of) old. And
the Command of Allâh is a decree determined. (38) Those who convey the Message
of Allâh and fear Him, and fear none save Allâh. And Sufficient is Allâh as a
Reckoner. (39) Muhammad (SAW) is not the father of any of your men, but he is
the Messenger of Allâh and the last (end) of the Prophets[]. And Allâh is Ever
All¬Aware of everything. (40) O you who believe! Remember Allâh with much
remembrance. (41) And glorify His Praises morning and afternoon [the early
morning (Fajr) and 'Asr prayers]. (42) He it is Who sends Salât (His blessings)
on you, and His angels too (ask Allâh to bless and forgive you), that He may
bring you out from darkness (of disbelief and polytheism) into light (of Belief
and Islâmic Monotheism). And He is Ever Most Merciful to the believers. (43)Their
greeting on the Day they shall meet Him will be "Salâm: Peace (i.e. the
angels will say to them: Salâmu 'Alaikum)!" And He has prepared for them a
generous reward (i.e. Paradise). (44) O Prophet (MuhammadSAW )! Verily, We
have sent you as witness, and a bearer of glad tidings, and a warner, (45) And
as one who invites to Allâh [Islâmic Monotheism, i.e. to worship none but Allâh
(Alone)] by His Leave, and as a lamp spreading light (through your instructions
from the Qur'ân and the Sunnah the legal ways of the Prophet SAW [] ). (46) And
announce to the believers (in the Oneness of Allâh and in His Messenger Muhammad
SAW) the glad tidings, that they will have from Allâh a Great Bounty. (47) And
obey not the disbelievers and the hypocrites, and harm them not (in revenge for
their harming you till you are ordered). And put your trust in Allâh, and
Sufficient is Allâh as a Wakîl (Trustee, or Disposer of affairs). [Tafsir
At-Qurtubi] (48) O you who believe! When you marry believing women, and then
divorce them before you have sexual intercourse with them, no 'Iddah [divorce
prescribed period, see (V.65:4)] have you to count in respect of them. So give
them a present, and set them free (i.e. divorce), in a handsome manner. (49) O
Prophet (Muhammad SAW)! Verily, We have made lawful to you your wives, to whom
you have paid their Mahr (bridal money given by the husband to his wife at the
time of marriage), and those (slaves) whom your right hand possesses - whom
Allâh has given to you, and the daughters of your 'Ammat (paternal uncles) and
the daughters of your 'Amm (paternal aunts) and the daughters of your Khâlat
(maternal uncles) and the daughters of your Khâl (maternal aunts) who migrated
(from Makkah) with you, and a believing woman if she offers herself to the
Prophet, and the Prophet wishes to marry her; a privilege for you only, not for
the (rest of) the believers. Indeed We know what We have enjoined upon them
about their wives and those (slaves) whom their right hands possess, - in order
that there should be no difficulty on you. And Allâh is Ever Oft¬Forgiving,
Most Merciful. (50)You (O Muhammad SAW) can postpone (the turn of) whom you
will of them (your wives), and you may receive whom you will. And whomsoever
you desire of those whom you have set aside (her turn temporarily), it is no
sin on you (to receive her again), that is better that they may be comforted and
not grieved, and may all be pleased with what you give them. Allâh knows what
is in your hearts. And Allâh is Ever All¬Knowing, Most Forbearing. (51) It is
not lawful for you (to marry other) women after this, nor to change them for
other wives even though their beauty attracts you, except those (slaves) whom
your right hand possesses. And Allâh is Ever a Watcher over all things. (52) O
you who believe! Enter not the Prophet's houses, unless permission is given to
you for a meal, (and then) not (so early as) to wait for its preparation. But
when you are invited, enter, and when you have taken your meal, disperse,
without sitting for a talk. Verily, such (behaviour) annoys the Prophet, and he
is shy of (asking) you (to go), but Allâh is not shy of (telling you) the
truth. And when you ask (his wives) for anything you want, ask them from behind
a screen, that is purer for your hearts and for their hearts. And it is not
(right) for you that you should annoy Allâh's Messenger, nor that you should
ever marry his wives after him (his death). Verily! With Allâh that shall be an
enormity (53) Whether you reveal anything or conceal it, verily, Allâh is Ever
All¬Knower of everything. (54)It is no sin on them (the Prophet's wives, if
they appear unveiled) before their fathers, or their sons, or their brothers,
or their brother's sons, or the sons of their sisters, or their own (believing)
women, or their (female) slaves, And coradies
keep your duty to Allâh. Verily, Allâh is Ever All¬Witness over everything. (55)
Allâh sends His Salât (Graces, Honours, Blessings, Mercy) on the Prophet
(Muhammad SAW) and also His angels (ask Allâh to bless and forgive him). O you
who believe! Send your Salât[] on (ask Allâh to bless) him (Muhammad SAW), and
(you should) greet (salute) him with the Islâmic way of greeting (salutation
i.e. As¬Salâmu 'Alaikum). (56) Verily, those who annoy Allâh and His Messenger
(SAW)[] Allâh has cursed them in this world, and in the Hereafter, and has
prepared for them a humiliating torment. (57) And those who annoy believing men
and women undeservedly, they bear (on themselves) the crime of slander and
plain sin. (58) O Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of
the believers to draw their cloaks (veils) all over their bodies (i.e.screen themselves
completely except the eyes or one eye to see the way). That will be better,
that they should be known (as free respectable women) so as not to be annoyed.
And Allâh is Ever Oft¬Forgiving, Most Merciful[] (59) If the hypocrites, and
those in whose hearts is a disease (evil desire for adultery), and those who
spread false news among the people in Al¬Madinah, stop not, We shall certainly
let you overpower them; then they will not be able to stay in it as your
neighbours but a little while. (60) Accursed, they shall be seized wherever
found and killed with a (terrible) slaughter. (61) That was the Way of Allâh in
the case of those who passed away of old, and you will not find any change in
the Way of Allâh. (62) People ask you concerning the Hour, say: "The
knowledge of it is with Allâh only. What do you know? It may be that the Hour
is near!" (63) Verily, Allâh has cursed the disbelievers, and has prepared
for them a flaming Fire (Hell). (64)Wherein they will abide
for ever, and they will find neither a Walî (a protector) nor a helper. (65)
On the Day when their faces will be turned over in the Fire, they will say:
"Oh, would that we had obeyed Allâh and obeyed the Messenger (Muhammad
SAW)." (66) And they will say: "Our Lord! Verily, we obeyed our
chiefs and our great ones, and they misled us from the (Right) Way. (67) Our
Lord! Give them double torment and curse them with a mighty curse!" (68) O
you who believe! Be not like those who annoyed Mûsa (Moses), but Allâh cleared
him of that which they alleged, and he was honourable before Allâh[] (69) O you
who believe! Keep your duty to Allâh and fear Him, and speak (always) the
truth. (70) He will direct you to do righteous good deeds and will forgive you
your sins. And whosoever obeys Allâh and His Messenger (SAW) he has indeed
achieved a great achievement (i.e. he will be saved from the Hell-fire and will
be admitted to Paradise). (71) Truly, We did offer Al¬Amânah (the trust or
moral responsibility or honesty and all the duties which Allâh has ordained) to
the heavens and the earth, and the mountains, but they declined to bear it and
were afraid of it (i.e. afraid of Allâh's Torment). But man bore it. Verily, he
was unjust (to himself) and ignorant (of its results).[] (72) So that Allâh
will punish the hypocrites, men and women, and the men and women who are
Al¬Mushrikûn (polytheists, idolaters, pagans, disbelievers in the Oneness of
Allâh, and His Messenger Muhammad SAW ). And Allâh will pardon (accept the
repentance of) the true believers of the Islâmic Monotheism, men and women. And
Allâh is Ever Oft¬Forgiving, Most Merciful. (73)
