[58:12]
O ye who believe! When ye hold conference with
the messenger, offer an alms before your conference.
That is better and purer for you. But if ye cannot find (the wherewithal) then
lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
[58:13]
Fear ye to offer alms before your conference ? Then, when ye do it not and Allah hath forgiven
you, establish worship and pay the poor-due and obey Allah and His messenger.
And Allah is Aware of what ye do.
[58:14]
Hast thou not seen those who take for friends a
folk with whom Allah is wroth ? They are neither of
you nor of them, and they swear a false oath knowingly.
[58:15]
Allah hath prepared for them a dreadful doom.
Evil indeed is that which they are wont to do.
[58:16]
They make a shelter of their oaths and turn
(men) from the way of Allah; so theirs will be a shameful doom.
[58:17]
Their wealth and their children will avail them naught against Allah. Such are rightful owners of the
Fire; they will abide therein.
[58:18]
On the day when Allah will raise them all together,
then will they swear unto Him as they (now) swear unto you, and they will fancy
that they have some standing. Lo! is
it not they who are the liars ?
[58:19]
The devil hath engrossed them and so hath caused
them to forget remembrance of Allah. They are the devil’s party. Lo! is it not the devil’s party who will be the losers ?
[58:20]
Lo! those who oppose
Allah and His messenger, they will be among the lowest.
[58:21]
Allah hath decreed: Lo! I verily shall conquer, I and My messengers. Lo! Allah is Strong, Almighty.
