يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِن جَاءَكُمْ فَاسِقٌ بِنَبَإٍ فَتَبَيَّنُوا أَن تُصِيبُوا قَوْمًا بِجَهَالَةٍ فَتُصْبِحُوا عَلَىٰ مَا فَعَلْتُمْ نَادِمِينَ ٦

O you who believe! If a rebellious evil person comes to you with a news, verify it, lest you harm people in ignorance, and afterwards you become regretful to what you have done.

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِن

O you who believe!

جَاءَكُمْ فَاسِقٌ بِنَبَإٍ فَتَبَيَّنُوا

If a rebellious evil person comes to you with a news,

أَن

verify it,

تُصِيبُوا قَوْمًا بِجَهَالَةٍ فَتُصْبِحُوا

lest you harm people in ignorance,

عَلَىٰ مَا فَعَلْتُمْ نَادِمِينَ

and afterwards you become regretful to what you have done.

وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ فِيكُمْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ۚ لَوْ يُطِيعُكُمْ فِي كَثِيرٍ مِّنَ الْأَمْرِ لَعَنِتُّمْ وَلَٰكِنَّ اللَّهَ حَبَّبَ إِلَيْكُمُ الْإِيمَانَ وَزَيَّنَهُ فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ وَكَرَّهَ إِلَيْكُمُ الْكُفْرَ وَالْفُسُوقَ وَالْعِصْيَانَ ۚ أُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الرَّاشِدُونَ ٧

And know that, among you there is the Messenger of Allah (SAW). If he were to obey you (i.e. follow your opinions and desires) in much of the matter, you would surely be in trouble, but Allah has endeared the Faith to you and has beautified it in your hearts, and has made disbelief, wickedness and disobedience (to Allah and His Messenger SAW) hateful to you. These! They are the rightly guided ones,

وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ فِيكُمْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ۚ

لَعَنِتُّمْ

you would surely be in trouble,

وَلَٰكِنَّ اللَّهَ حَبَّبَ إِلَيْكُمُ الْإِيمَانَ

but Allah has endeared the Faith to you

وَزَيَّنَهُ فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ

and has beautified it in your hearts,

وَكَرَّهَ إِلَيْكُمُ الْكُفْرَ وَالْفُسُوقَ وَالْعِصْيَانَ ۚ

and has made disbelief, wickedness and disobedience (to Allah and His Messenger SAW) hateful to you.

أُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الرَّاشِدُونَ

These! They are the rightly guided ones.

فَضْلًا مِّنَ اللَّهِ وَنِعْمَةً ۚ وَاللَّهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ ٨
