بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّح۪يمِ
9:41 Go forth to war, whether light or heavy. Strive in the Way of Allah with your money and your lives. That is better for you, if you only knew.
9:42 "If it had been a near benefit and a journey of moderate length, they would have followed you, but the way seemed far to them. They will swear by Allah: "Had we been able, we would have gone out with you."Thus they ruin themselves. Allah knows that they are liars."
9:43 Allah has forgiven you: Why did you allow them before the truthful and the liars became clear to you?
9:44 Those who believe in Allah and the Last Day do not ask your permission (to escape) from striving with their money and their lives. Allah is All-Knowing of the righteous.
9:45 Only those who do not believe in Allah and the Last Day ask your permission. Their hearts are full of doubt. They are floundering in their doubts.
9:46 "Had they wished to go to war, they would have made preparations for it. But Allah did not want their contribution and made them half-hearted and unwilling. They were told, "Sit down with those who sit!"
9:47 If they had gone out with you, they would only have brought confusion among you, they would have sown discord and strife among you. And there are those among you who listen to them. Allah is well Knowing of the wrongdoers.
9:48 Even before, they had desired to create confusion and plotted against you. At last the truth came and Allah´s law prevailed in spite of them.
9:49 "Some of them say, "Allow me, do not put me in distress". They have already fallen into distress with this attitude; Hell encompasses the disbelievers."
9:50 "If good touches you, it grieves them, and if evil touches you, they say, "We had taken precautions beforehand,"and they turn away rejoicing."
9:51 "Say: "Nothing touches us except what Allah has written for us. He is our vicegerent, our Owner. Let those who believe put their trust in Allah."
9:52 "Say: "We hope for you that Allah will punish you either by His own hand or by ours, while for us you can only hope for one of the two good things (martyrdom or martyrdom). Wait in hope, and we are waiting in hope."
9:53 "Say: "Whether you help the poor voluntarily or involuntarily, it will not be accepted from you. For you are a people who have gone astray."
9:54 The only obstacle to their help being accepted is this: They have disbelieved in Allah and His messenger, they are only lazy in prayer and reluctant in charity.
9:55 Let not their money and their children impress you. Allah wants to punish them with them in the life of this world and that their souls should be disbelievers.
9:56 They swear by Allah that they are of you, but they are not of you, but they are a people who create discord.
9:57 Indeed, if they had found a refuge or a cave or a hole to enter, they would have turned to it in panic.
9:58 Some of them criticize you about the distribution of the alms; they are pleased when they are given it, but they are angry when they are not given it.
9:59 "They should be content with what Allah and His messenger have given them and say, "Allah is sufficient for us. Allah will give us from His bounty through His messenger. We desire only Allah."
9:60 Alms, as an obligation from Allah, should be given to the poor, to the needy, to those who labor, to sympathizers, for the freedom of slaves, to debtors, to the way of Allah, and to the wayfarers. Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise.
