Surah Al-Mumtahinah: Arabic, Transliteration & Translation

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ

1. 60:1

   يٰٓاَيُّهَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا لَا تَتَّخِذُوْا عَدُوِّيْ وَعَدُوَّكُمْ اَوْلِيَاۤءَ تُلْقُوْنَ اِلَيْهِمْ بِالْمَوَدَّةِ وَقَدْ كَفَرُوْا بِمَا جَاۤءَكُمْ مِّنَ الْحَقِّۚ يُخْرِجُوْنَ الرَّسُوْلَ وَاِيَّاكُمْ اَنْ تُؤْمِنُوْا بِاللّٰهِ رَبِّكُمْۗ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ خَرَجْتُمْ جِهَادًا فِيْ سَبِيْلِيْ وَابْتِغَاۤءَ مَرْضَاتِيْ تُسِرُّوْنَ اِلَيْهِمْ بِالْمَوَدَّةِ وَاَنَا۠ اَعْلَمُ بِمَآ اَخْفَيْتُمْ وَمَآ اَعْلَنْتُمْۗ وَمَنْ يَّفْعَلْهُ مِنْكُمْ فَقَدْ ضَلَّ سَوَاۤءَ السَّبِيْلِ

   Yaa ai-yuhaal-ladziina aamanuu laa tattakhidzuu 'aduu-wii wa'aduu-wakum auliyaa-a tulquuna ilaihim bil mawaddati waqad kafaruu bimaa jaa-akum minal haqqi yukhrijuunar-rasuula wa-ii-yaakum an tu'minuu billahi rabbikum in kuntum kharajtum jihaadan fii sabiilii waabtighaa-a mardhaatii tusirruuna ilaihim bil mawaddati wa-anaa a'lamu bimaa akhfaitum wamaa a'lantum waman yaf'alhu minkum faqad dhalla sawaa-assabiil(i)

   Believers, if you have left (your homes and) have come forth to struggle in My Way and to seek My good pleasure, do not make friends with My enemies and your enemies. You befriend them whereas they have spurned the Truth that has come to you; and (such is their enmity that) they expel the Messenger and yourselves for no other reason than that you believe in Allah, your Lord. You send to them messages of friendship in secrecy, although I know well whatever you do, be it secretly or publicly. And whosoever of you does so has indeed strayed far away from the Straight Path.

2. 60:2

   اِنْ يَّثْقَفُوْكُمْ يَكُوْنُوْا لَكُمْ اَعْدَاۤءً وَّيَبْسُطُوْٓا اِلَيْكُمْ اَيْدِيَهُمْ وَاَلْسِنَتَهُمْ بِالسُّوْۤءِ وَوَدُّوْا لَوْ تَكْفُرُوْنَۗ

   In yatsqafuukum yakuunuu lakum a'daa-an wayabsuthuu ilaikum aidiyahum wa-alsinatahum bissuu-i wawadduu lau takfuruun(a)

   If they could overcome you, they would act as your foes and would hurt you by their hands and tongues, and would love to see you become unbelievers.

3. 60:3

   لَنْ تَنْفَعَكُمْ اَرْحَامُكُمْ وَلَآ اَوْلَادُكُمْ ۛيَوْمَ الْقِيٰمَةِ ۛيَفْصِلُ بَيْنَكُمْۗ وَاللّٰهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ بَصِيْرٌ

   Lan tanfa'akum arhaamukum walaa aulaadukum yaumal qiyaamati yafshilu bainakum wallahu bimaa ta'maluuna bashiirun

   On the Day of Resurrection neither your blood-kindred nor your own offspring will avail you. (On that Day) He will separate you. Allah sees all that you do.

4. 60:4

   قَدْ كَانَتْ لَكُمْ اُسْوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ فِيْٓ اِبْرٰهِيْمَ وَالَّذِيْنَ مَعَهٗۚ اِذْ قَالُوْا لِقَوْمِهِمْ اِنَّا بُرَءٰۤؤُا مِنْكُمْ وَمِمَّا تَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ ۖ كَفَرْنَا بِكُمْ وَبَدَا بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَكُمُ الْعَدَاوَةُ وَالْبَغْضَاۤءُ اَبَدًا حَتّٰى تُؤْمِنُوْا بِاللّٰهِ وَحْدَهٗٓ اِلَّا قَوْلَ اِبْرٰهِيْمَ لِاَبِيْهِ لَاَسْتَغْفِرَنَّ لَكَ وَمَآ اَمْلِكُ لَكَ مِنَ اللّٰهِ مِنْ شَيْءٍۗ رَبَّنَا عَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْنَا وَاِلَيْكَ اَنَبْنَا وَاِلَيْكَ الْمَصِيْرُ

   Qad kaanat lakum uswatun hasanatun fii ibraahiima waal-ladziina ma'ahu idz qaaluuu liqaumihim innaa buraaa-u minkum wamimmaa ta'buduuna min duunillahi kafarnaa bikum wabadaa bainanaa wabainakumul 'adaawatu wal baghdhaa-u abadan hatta tu'minuu billahi wahdahu ilaa qaula ibraahiima abiihi astaghfiranna laka wamaa amliku laka minallahi min syai-in rabbanaa 'alaika tawakkalnaa wa-ilaika anabnaa wa-ilaikal mashiir(u)

   You have a good example in Abraham and his companions: they said to their people: “We totally dissociate ourselves from you, and from the deities that you worship instead of Allah. We renounce you and there has come to be enmity and hatred between us and you until you believe in Allah, the One True God.” (But you may not emulate) Abraham's saying to his father: “Certainly I will ask pardon for you, although I have no power over Allah to obtain anything on your behalf.” (And Abraham and his companions prayed): “Our Lord, in You have we put our trust, and to You have we turned, and to You is our ultimate return.

5. 60:5

   رَبَّنَا لَا تَجْعَلْنَا فِتْنَةً لِّلَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا وَاغْفِرْ لَنَا رَبَّنَاۚ اِنَّكَ اَنْتَ الْعَزِيْزُ الْحَكِيْمُ

   Rabbanaa laa taj'alnaa fitnatal(n)-lil-ladziina kafaruu waaghfir lanaa rabbanaa innaka antal 'aziizul hakiim(u)

   Our Lord, do not make us a test for the unbelievers, and forgive us, our Lord. Surely You are Most Mighty, Most Wise.”

6. 60:6

   لَقَدْ كَانَ لَكُمْ فِيْهِمْ اُسْوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ لِّمَنْ كَانَ يَرْجُو اللّٰهَ وَالْيَوْمَ الْاٰخِرَۗ وَمَنْ يَّتَوَلَّ فَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ هُوَ الْغَنِيُّ الْحَمِيْدُ ࣖ

   Laqad kaana lakum fiihim uswatun hasanatun liman kaana yarjuullaha wal yauma-aakhira waman yatawalla fa-innallaha huwal ghanii-yul hamiid(u)

   Indeed there is a good example for you in them; a good example for anyone who looks forward to Allah and the Last Day. As for him who turns away, Allah is All-Sufficient, Immensely Praiseworthy.

7. 60:7

   ۞ عَسَى اللّٰهُ اَنْ يَّجْعَلَ بَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَ الَّذِيْنَ عَادَيْتُمْ مِّنْهُمْ مَّوَدَّةًۗ وَاللّٰهُ قَدِيْرٌۗ وَاللّٰهُ غَفُوْرٌ رَّحِيْمٌ

   'Asallahu an yaj'ala bainakum wabainal-ladziina 'aadaitum minhum mawaddatan wallahu qadiirun wallahu ghafuurun rahiimun

   It may well be that Allah will implant love between you and those with whom you have had enmity. Allah is Most Powerful; and Allah is Most Forgiving, Most Compassionate.

8. 60:8

   لَا يَنْهٰىكُمُ اللّٰهُ عَنِ الَّذِيْنَ لَمْ يُقَاتِلُوْكُمْ فِى الدِّيْنِ وَلَمْ يُخْرِجُوْكُمْ مِّنْ دِيَارِكُمْ اَنْ تَبَرُّوْهُمْ وَتُقْسِطُوْٓا اِلَيْهِمْۗ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ يُحِبُّ الْمُقْسِطِيْنَ

   Laa yanhaakumullahu 'anil-ladziina lam yuqaatiluukum fiiddiini walam yukhrijuukum min diyaarikum an tabarruuhum watuqsithuu ilaihim innallaha yuhibbul muqsithiin(a)

   Allah does not forbid that you be kind and just to those who did not fight against you on account of religion, nor drove you out of your homes. Surely Allah loves those who are equitable.

9. 60:9

   اِنَّمَا يَنْهٰىكُمُ اللّٰهُ عَنِ الَّذِيْنَ قَاتَلُوْكُمْ فِى الدِّيْنِ وَاَخْرَجُوْكُمْ مِّنْ دِيَارِكُمْ وَظَاهَرُوْا عَلٰٓى اِخْرَاجِكُمْ اَنْ تَوَلَّوْهُمْۚ وَمَنْ يَّتَوَلَّهُمْ فَاُولٰۤىِٕكَ هُمُ الظّٰلِمُوْنَ

   Innamaa yanhaakumullahu 'anil-ladziina qaataluukum fiiddiini wa-akhrajuukum min diyaarikum wazhaaharuu 'ala ikhraajikum an tawallauhum waman yatawallahum fa-uula-ika humuzh-zhaalimuun(a)

   Allah only forbids you to be friends with those who have fought against you on account of religion and who have driven you out of your homes and have abetted in your expulsion. And any who make friends with them, they are the wrong-doers.

10. 60:10

    يٰٓاَيُّهَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْٓا اِذَا جَاۤءَكُمُ الْمُؤْمِنٰتُ مُهٰجِرٰتٍ فَامْتَحِنُوْهُنَّۗ اَللّٰهُ اَعْلَمُ بِاِيْمَانِهِنَّ فَاِنْ عَلِمْتُمُوْهُنَّ مُؤْمِنٰتٍ فَلَا تَرْجِعُوْهُنَّ اِلَى الْكُفَّارِۗ لَا هُنَّ حِلٌّ لَّهُمْ وَلَا هُمْ يَحِلُّوْنَ لَهُنَّۗ وَاٰتُوْهُمْ مَّآ اَنْفَقُوْاۗ وَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْكُمْ اَنْ تَنْكِحُوْهُنَّ اِذَآ اٰتَيْتُمُوْهُنَّ اُجُوْرَهُنَّۗ وَلَا تُمْسِكُوْا بِعِصَمِ الْكَوَافِرِ وَسْـَٔلُوْا مَآ اَنْفَقْتُمْ وَلْيَسْـَٔلُوْا مَآ اَنْفَقُوْاۗ ذٰلِكُمْ حُكْمُ اللّٰهِ ۗيَحْكُمُ بَيْنَكُمْۗ وَاللّٰهُ عَلِيْمٌ حَكِيْمٌ

    Yaa ai-yuhaal-ladziina aamanuu idzaa jaa-akumul mu'minaatu muhaajiraatin faamtahinuuhun-nallahu a'lamu biiimaanihinna fa-in 'alimtumuuhunna mu'minaatin falaa tarji'uuhunna ilal kuffaari laa hunna hillun lahum walaa hum yahilluuna lahunna waaatuuhum maa anfaquu walaa junaaha 'alaikum an tankihuuhunna idzaa aataitumuuhunna ujuurahunna walaa tumsikuu bi'ishamil kawaafiri waasaluu maa anfaqtum walyasaluu maa anfaquu dzalikum hukmullahi yahkumu bainakum wallahu 'aliimun hakiimun

    Believers, when believing women come to you as Emigrants (in the cause of faith), examine them. Allah fully knows (the truth) concerning their faith. And when you have ascertained them to be believing women, do not send them back to the unbelievers. Those women are no longer lawful to the unbelievers, nor are those unbelievers lawful to those (believing) women. Give their unbelieving husbands whatever they have spent (as bridal-dues); and there is no offence for you to marry those women if you give them their bridal-dues. Do not hold on to your marriages with unbelieving women: ask for the return of the bridal-due you gave to your unbelieving wives and the unbelievers may ask for the return of the bridal-due they had given to their believing wives. Such is Allah's command. He judges between you. Allah is All-Knowing, Most Wise.

11. 60:11

    وَاِنْ فَاتَكُمْ شَيْءٌ مِّنْ اَزْوَاجِكُمْ اِلَى الْكُفَّارِ فَعَاقَبْتُمْ فَاٰتُوا الَّذِيْنَ ذَهَبَتْ اَزْوَاجُهُمْ مِّثْلَ مَآ اَنْفَقُوْاۗ وَاتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ الَّذِيْٓ اَنْتُمْ بِهٖ مُؤْمِنُوْنَ

    Wa-in faatakum syayun min azwaajikum ilal kuffaari fa'aaqabtum faaatuul-ladziina dzahabat azwaajuhum mitsla maa anfaquu waattaquullahal-ladzii antum bihi mu'minuun(a)

    And if you fail to receive from the unbelievers a part of the bridal-due of your disbelieving wives, and then your turn comes, pay to those who have been left on the other side an amount the like of the bridal-due that they have paid. And have fear of Allah in Whom you believe.

12. 60:12

    يٰٓاَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ اِذَا جَاۤءَكَ الْمُؤْمِنٰتُ يُبَايِعْنَكَ عَلٰٓى اَنْ لَّا يُشْرِكْنَ بِاللّٰهِ شَيْـًٔا وَّلَا يَسْرِقْنَ وَلَا يَزْنِيْنَ وَلَا يَقْتُلْنَ اَوْلَادَهُنَّ وَلَا يَأْتِيْنَ بِبُهْتَانٍ يَّفْتَرِيْنَهٗ بَيْنَ اَيْدِيْهِنَّ وَاَرْجُلِهِنَّ وَلَا يَعْصِيْنَكَ فِيْ مَعْرُوْفٍ فَبَايِعْهُنَّ وَاسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُنَّ اللّٰهَ ۗاِنَّ اللّٰهَ غَفُوْرٌ رَّحِيْمٌ

    Yaa ai-yuhaannabii-yu idzaa jaa-akal mu'minaatu yubaayi'naka 'ala an laa yusyrikna billahi syai-an walaa yasriqna walaa yazniina walaa yaqtulna aulaadahunna walaa ya'tiina bibuhtaanin yaftariinahu baina aidiihinna wa-arjulihinna walaa ya'shiinaka fii ma'ruufin fabaayi'hunna waastaghfir lahunnallaha innallaha ghafuurun rahiimun

    O Prophet, when believing women come to you and pledge to you that they will not associate aught with Allah in His Divinity, that they will not steal, that they will not commit illicit sexual intercourse, that they will not kill their children, that they will not bring forth a calumny between their hands and feet, and that they will not disobey you in anything known to be good, then accept their allegiance and ask Allah to forgive them. Surely Allah is Most Forgiving, Most Compassionate.

13. 60:13

    يٰٓاَيُّهَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا لَا تَتَوَلَّوْا قَوْمًا غَضِبَ اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِمْ قَدْ يَىِٕسُوْا مِنَ الْاٰخِرَةِ كَمَا يَىِٕسَ الْكُفَّارُ مِنْ اَصْحٰبِ الْقُبُوْرِ ࣖ

    Yaa ai-yuhaal-ladziina aamanuu laa tatawallau qauman ghadhiballahu 'alaihim qad ya-isuu mina-aakhirati kamaa ya-isal kuffaaru min ashhaabil qubuur(i)

    Believers, do not make friends with those against whom Allah is wrathful and who are despaired of the Hereafter, as despaired as are the unbelievers lying in their graves.
