O’ you who believe, fear God (by doing all that is He has ordered and by abstaining from all that He has forbidden) as He should be feared (obey Him, be thankful to Him, and remember Him always) and do not die except (you are) in state of Islam (as a Muslim) (with complete submission to God). 

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آَمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللَّهَ حَقَّ تُقَاتِهِ وَلَا تَمُوتُنَّ إِلَّا وَأَنْتُمْ مُسْلِمُونَ (102)

And hold fast –all of you together- by the Rope which God (has stretches out for you) and be not divided (Unite) among yourselves; and remember with gratitude God’s favors on you, for you were enemies and He joined your hearts in love, so that by His Grace you became brethren; and you were on the brink of the pit of fire, and He saved you from it. Thus God make His Signs clear to you that you may be guided.    

وَاعْتَصِمُوا بِحَبْلِ اللَّهِ جَمِيعًا وَلَا تَفَرَّقُوا وَاذْكُرُوا نِعْمَةَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ إِذْ كُنْتُمْ أَعْدَاءً فَأَلَّفَ بَيْنَ قُلُوبِكُمْ فَأَصْبَحْتُمْ بِنِعْمَتِهِ إِخْوَانًا وَكُنْتُمْ عَلَى شَفَا حُفْرَةٍ مِنَ النَّارِ فَأَنْقَذَكُمْ مِنْهَا كَذَلِكَ يُبَيِّنُ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ آَيَاتِهِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَهْتَدُونَ (103)

And let there arise -out of you- a band of people inviting to all that is god, enjoining what is right and forbidding what is wrong; they are the ones to attain felicity.  

وَلْتَكُنْ مِنْكُمْ أُمَّةٌ يَدْعُونَ إِلَى الْخَيْرِ وَيَأْمُرُونَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَيَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَأُولَئِكَ هُمُ الْمُفْلِحُونَ (104)

And do not be like those who divided amongst themselves and fall into disputations, after receiving Clear Signs. It is for them is a dreadful penalty/an awful torment.  

وَلَا تَكُونُوا كَالَّذِينَ تَفَرَّقُوا وَاخْتَلَفُوا مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا جَاءَهُمُ الْبَيِّنَاتُ وَأُولَئِكَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمٌ (105)

In The Name of God Most Gracious Most Merciful

بِسْمِ اللَهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ

And make ready against them (all) your strength to utmost of your power, including steeds of war, to strike terror into the hearts of the enemies of God and your enemies, and others besides, whom you may not know, (but) whom God does know. And whatever you spend in the Cause of God shall be repaid to you, and you shall not be treated unjustly.    

وَأَعِدُّوا لَهُمْ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ مِنْ قُوَّةٍ وَمِنْ رِبَاطِ الْخَيْلِ تُرْهِبُونَ بِهِ عَدُوَّ اللَّهِ وَعَدُوَّكُمْ وَآَخَرِينَ مِنْ دُونِهِمْ لَا تَعْلَمُونَهُمُ اللَّهُ يَعْلَمُهُمْ وَمَا تُنْفِقُوا مِنْ شَيْءٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ يُوَفَّ إِلَيْكُمْ وَأَنْتُمْ لَا تُظْلَمُونَ (60)

But if the enemy inclines towards peace, you do also incline towards peace, and put your trust in God, for He is All-Hearer, All-Knower.   

وَإِنْ جَنَحُوا لِلسَّلْمِ فَاجْنَحْ لَهَا وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللَّهِ إِنَّهُ هُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ (61)

But should they intend to deceive you, verily, God is All-Sufficient for you. He is Who that has strengthened you with His aid and with (the company of) the believers.

وَإِنْ يُرِيدُوا أَنْ يَخْدَعُوكَ فَإِنَّ حَسْبَكَ اللَّهُ هُوَ الَّذِي أَيَّدَكَ بِنَصْرِهِ وَبِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ (62)

And (moreover- the believers) He has put affection between their hearts (united them). If you have spent all that in the earth you could not have united their hearts/produced that affection, but God has united them. Certainly He is All-Mighty, All-Wise. 

وَأَلَّفَ بَيْنَ قُلُوبِهِمْ لَوْ أَنْفَقْتَ مَا فِي الْأَرْضِ جَمِيعًا مَا أَلَّفْتَ بَيْنَ قُلُوبِهِمْ وَلَكِنَّ اللَّهَ أَلَّفَ بَيْنَهُمْ إِنَّهُ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ (63)

O’ Prophet (Muhammad PPBUH) God is Sufficient for you and for the believers who follow you.

يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ حَسْبُكَ اللَّهُ وَمَنِ اتَّبَعَكَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (64)

O’ Prophet (Muhammad PPBUH) rouse/urge the believers to the fight. If there are twenty steadfast /patient and preserved amongst you, they will vanquish two hundred; and if a hundred of you (steadfast persons), they will vanquish a thousand of the unbelievers, for those are people (the unbelievers) without understanding. 

يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ حَرِّضِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَى الْقِتَالِ إِنْ يَكُنْ مِنْكُمْ عِشْرُونَ صَابِرُونَ يَغْلِبُوا مِائَتَيْنِ وَإِنْ يَكُنْ مِنْكُمْ مِئَةٌ يَغْلِبُوا أَلْفًا مِنَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا بِأَنَّهُمْ قَوْمٌ لَا يَفْقَهُونَ (65)

In The Name of God Most Gracious Most Merciful

بِسْمِ اللَهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ

Alif, Lam, Meem. (These letters are one of the miracles of the Qur’an, and none but God (Alone) knows their meanings).

الم (1)

The Romans (Roman Empire) has been defeated.

غُلِبَتِ الرُّومُ (2)

In a land close by (nearest= Syria, Iraq, Jordan, and Palestine), and they after this defeat of theirs, will soon be victorious.

فِي أَدْنَى الْأَرْضِ وَهُمْ مِنْ بَعْدِ غَلَبِهِمْ سَيَغْلِبُونَ (3)

Within a few years (three to nine years), the decision of the matter –before (past) and after (future) - is only with God. And on that Day the believers shall rejoice.

فِي بِضْعِ سِنِينَ لِلَّهِ الْأَمْرُ مِنْ قَبْلُ وَمِنْ بَعْدُ وَيَوْمَئِذٍ يَفْرَحُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ (4)

With the help of God, He helps whom He Wills, and He is the Exalted-in-Might/All-Might, Most Merciful.

بِنَصْرِ اللَّهِ يَنْصُرُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الرَّحِيمُ (5)

(It is) the Promise of God, never does God depart/ fail His promise. But most of men don’t understand/don’t know.

وَعْدَ اللَّهِ لَا يُخْلِفُ اللَّهُ وَعْدَهُ وَلَكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ (6)

They know only the outer/exterior (appearing things) in life of this world, but for the End/the Hereafter, they are heedless.  

يَعْلَمُونَ ظَاهِرًا مِنَ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَهُمْ عَنِ الْآَخِرَةِ هُمْ غَافِلُونَ (7)

Do they not think deeply (in their own selves)/ reflect in their own minds about themselves? That God Created the heavens and earth, and all between them except by truth and an appointed term; yet there are truly many among men who deny the meeting with their Lord (at the Resurrection-Day).

أَوَلَمْ يَتَفَكَّرُوا فِي أَنْفُسِهِمْ مَا خَلَقَ اللَّهُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ وَأَجَلٍ مُسَمًّى وَإِنَّ كَثِيرًا مِنَ النَّاسِ بِلِقَاءِ رَبِّهِمْ لَكَافِرُونَ (8)

Do they not travel in the land/through the earth and see what the end of those who were before them was? They were superior to them in strength; they tilled the soil and populated it in greater numbers than these (pagans) have done; and there came to them their apostles with clear Signs /proofs (which they rejected, to their own destruction). It was not God who wronged them, but they have wronged themselves. 

أَوَلَمْ يَسِيرُوا فِي الْأَرْضِ فَيَنْظُرُوا كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ كَانُوا أَشَدَّ مِنْهُمْ قُوَّةً وَأَثَارُوا الْأَرْضَ وَعَمَرُوهَا أَكْثَرَ مِمَّا عَمَرُوهَا وَجَاءَتْهُمْ رُسُلُهُمْ بِالْبَيِّنَاتِ فَمَا كَانَ اللَّهُ لِيَظْلِمَهُمْ وَلَكِنْ كَانُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ يَظْلِمُونَ (9)

Then, in the long run, evil in the extreme was the end of those who did evil; because they denied/ rejected the Signs of God, and held them up to ridicule/made a mockery of them. 

ثُمَّ كَانَ عَاقِبَةَ الَّذِينَ أَسَاءُوا السُّوأَى أَنْ كَذَّبُوا بِآَيَاتِ اللَّهِ وَكَانُوا بِهَا يَسْتَهْزِئُونَ (10)
