Know that one-fifth of the booty (spoils of war) is for Allah,His Rasool, close relatives of the Rasool, orphans, the needy andthe wayfarer, if you do believe in Allah and in what We revealedto Our servant on the day of distinction (between right andwrong), the day when two armies met in combat. Allah has powerover everything.
When you set forth to take the spoils of war, those who stayedbehind will say: "Let us come with you." They wish to changeAllah's decree. Tell them plainly: "You shall not come with us.Allah has already said this before." Then they will say: "Nay!But you are jealous of us." Whereas there is no question ofjealousy, but little do they understand such things.

A share of the spoils shall be given to the indigent Muhajirin(immigrants) who were driven out of their homes and theirpossessions, and are seeking Allah's grace and His good pleasureand who want to help Allah and His Rasool: such are indeed thetrue believers.
And of His signs, another one is that He created for you matesfrom among yourselves that you may find comfort with them, and Heplanted love and kindness in your hearts; surely there are signsin this for those who think about it.
And the earth, how it is spread out?
We also produce from it gardens with date-palms and vines, and Wecause springs to gush forth from it.
So that they may enjoy the fruits thereof. It was not their handsthat made all this; should they not then give thanks?
Do you not see how Allah sends down water from the sky whichpenetrates the earth and come out through springs? With it Hebrings forth a variety of crops with different colors, then theywither and you see them turning yellow, and then finally Hecrumbles them to dust. Surely, in this example, there is a lessonfor the people of understanding.
O believers! Avoid immoderate suspicion, for in some casessuspicion is a sin. Do not spy on one another, nor backbite oneanother (to say something about another behind ones back that ifone hears it, dislikes it). Would any of you like to eat theflesh of his dead brother? Surely you would abhor it. Fear Allah;for Allah is the Accepter of repentance, Merciful.
- as spendthrifts are the brethren of shaitan and shaitan is everungrateful to His Rabb.
Do not misappropriate one another's property unjustly, nor bribethe judges, in order to misappropriate a part of other people'sproperty, sinfully and knowingly.
O believers! Do not consume one another's wealth through unlawfulmeans; instead, do business with mutual consent; do not killyourselves by adopting unlawful means. Indeed Allah is Mercifulto you.
Anyone who commits such acts of aggression and injustice willsoon be thrown into hellfire, and this is very easy for Allah todo.
You shall give to your relatives their due and to the needy andto the wayfarers. You shall not be a spendthrift
During the prayer say: "Rabb! Make my entrance, the entrance withtruth and make my exit, the exit with truth and grant me asupporting authority from your presence;"
Likewise enjoin the believing women to lower their gaze and guardtheir modesty; not to display their beauty and ornaments exceptwhat normally appears thereof; let them draw their veils overtheir bosoms and not display their charms except to theirhusbands, their fathers, their fathers-in-law, their own sons,their stepsons, their own brothers, their nephews on eitherbrothers' or sisters' sides, their own womenfolk, their ownslaves, male attendants who lack sexual desires or small childrenwho have no carnal knowledge of women. Also enjoin them not tostrike their feet in order to draw attention to their hiddentrinkets. And O believers! Turn to Allah in repentance, all ofyou, about your past mistakes, so that you may attain salvation.
Let those women, during their waiting period ('Iddat), live whereyou yourselves live according to your means. You shall not harassthem so as to make life intolerable for them. If they arepregnant, maintain them until their delivery: and if, after that,they suckle your offspring, compensate them and settle the matterof compensation with mutual consultation and in all fairness. Butif you cannot bear with each other then let another woman sucklethe baby for you.
Let the rich man give according to his means, and the poor mangive according to what Allah has given him. Allah does not chargea man with more than He has given him; soon Allah may bring easeafter hardship.
who stand firm in their testimonies
For sure, in the creation of the heavens and the earth and thealternation of the night and the day there are signs for men ofunderstanding.
Those who remember Allah while standing, sitting, and lying ontheir sides, and meditate on the creation of the heavens and theearth. Then cry out:" Our Rabb! You have not created this invain. Glory to You! Save us from the punishment of Fire.
When you finish your Salah (prayers) remember Allah whether youare standing, sitting or reclining; then as soon as you are safe(out of danger) establish regular Salah in full. Surely Salah aremade obligatory for the believers at their prescribed times.
Can he who is obedient, pass the hours of night prostrating inworship or standing in adoration, fearing the hereafter and hopeto earn the Mercy of his Rabb, be compared to the man who doesnot? Are the knowledgeable and the ignorant equal? In fact, nonewill take heed except the people of understanding.
Guard your Salah (obligatory regular prayers) especially themiddle Salah and stand up with true devotion to Allah.
O Prophet say: "I am but a man like yourselves. It is revealed tome that your God is One God, therefore take the Right Way towardsHim and implore His forgiveness. Woe to the mushrikin (those whoassociate other gods with Allah);
As for those who say: "Our God is Allah," and then stay firm onit, the angels will descend on them, saying: "Let nothing fear orgrieve you. Rejoice for the good news of paradise that has beenpromised to you.
We are your protectors in this life and in the hereafter. Thereyou shall find all that your souls desire and all that you canask for:
A hospitable gift from the All-Forgiving, All-Merciful."
Do you not see how all who dwell in the heavens and the earth bowdown in worship to Allah, including the sun, the moon, the stars,the mountains, the trees, the animals, and a large number ofpeople, even a large number of those deserving the punishment. Hewho is humbled by Allah has none who can raise him to honor;surely Allah does what He pleases.
We have indeed decked the worldly heaven with beautiful stars
We have decorated the heaven of this world with lamps and We madethem as missiles for pelting the shaitans and thus prepared forthem the scourge of flames.
It is going to be fulfilled when the stars will lose their light,
when the stars will loose their luster;
when the stars will scatter;
and glorify Him in a part of the night, and also as the starsfade away.
He is the One Who has made the stars for you, so that you mightfind your way thereby in the darkness whether you are on the landor the sea. We have spelled out Our revelations very clearly forpeople of common sense.
He has subjected to your service the night and the day, the sunand the moon: and likewise the stars also serve you by Hiscommand: surely there are signs in this for people who use theircommon sense.
- such pious people the angels cause to die, saying: "Peace beupon you! Enter the paradise because of the good deeds you havedone."
O believers! Do not offer your Salah when you are drunk until youknow what you are saying; nor after seminal emission, except whenyou are travelling, unless you wash your whole body. If you aresick, or on a journey, or one of you has used the toilet, or hashad contact with women (sexual relation with wives) and can findno water, then make Tayammum: take some clean earth and rub yourfaces and hands with it. Allah is Lenient, Forgiving.
Give glad tidings to those who believe in this Book and do gooddeeds in accordance with its teachings for them there will beGardens beneath which rivers flow. Whenever they will be givenfruits to eat they will say: "This is similar to the one we usedto eat before on earth," for the fruits will resemble the fruitson the earth for their easy identification and enjoyment; and forthem there will be chaste virgin spouses, and they shall livetherein for ever.
O wives of the Prophet! You are not like the other women: if youfear Allah, then you should not be complaisant while talking tothe men who are not closely related to you, lest the one in whoseheart is a disease may thereby be encouraged, and speak usingsuitable good words.
Stay in your homes and do not display your finery as women usedto do in the days of ignorance (pre-Islamic days); establishSalah, pay Zakah, and obey Allah and His Rasool. O women of thehousehold of Rasool, Allah only intends to remove uncleanlinessfrom you and to purify you completely.
Muster against them all the military strength and cavalry thatyou can afford so that you may strike terror into the hearts ofthe enemy of Allah and of your, and others besides them who areunknown to you but known to Allah. Remember that whatever youwill spend in the cause of Allah, shall be paid back to you infull and you shall not be treated unjustly.
The unbelievers ask: "Why is not the Qur'an revealed to him allin a single revelation?" This method of slow, well arranged,piecemeal revelations is adopted to strengthen your heart.
The other reason for this method is that any time they come toyou with an argument, We reveal to you the Truth and properlyexplain it.
Those who will be dragged headlong into hell shall have an evilplace to dwell in, for they had lost the Way by taking an utterlywrong stand.
