58:7

Do notyou seethatAllahknowswhatever(is) inthe heavensand whatever(is) inﱋﱌthe earthNotthere isanysecret counsel(of) threebutHe (is)(the) fourth of themand notfivebutHe (is)(the) sixth of themand notlessthanthatand notmorebutHe(is) with themwhereverwhereverﱥﱦthey areThenHe will inform themof whatthey did(on the) Dayﱬﱭ(of) the ResurrectionIndeedAllahof everything(is) All-Knower(7)

Do you not see that Allah knows whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth? If three converse privately, He is their fourth. If five, He is their sixth. Whether fewer or more, He is with them1 wherever they may be. Then, on the Day of Judgment, He will inform them of what they have done. Surely Allah has ˹perfect˺ knowledge of all things.

58:8

Do notyou see[to]those whowere forbiddenfromsecret counselsthenthey returnto whatthey were forbiddenﱿfrom [it]and they hold secret counselsfor sinand aggressionand disobedienceﲄﲅ(to) the MessengerAnd whenthey come to youthey greet youwith whatnotgreets youtherewithAllahand they sayamongthemselvesWhy (does) notAllah punish usAllah punish usfor whatﲕﲖwe saySufficient (for) them(is) Hellﲙﲚthey will burn in itand worst isthe destination(8)

Have you not seen those who were forbidden from secret talks, yet they ˹always˺ return to what they were forbidden from, conspiring in sin, aggression, and disobedience to the Messenger? And when they come to you ˹O Prophet˺, they greet you not as Allah greets you,1 and say to one another, “Why does Allah not punish us for what we say?” Hell is enough for them—they will burn in it. And what an evil destination!

58:9

O you who believeO you who believeO you who believeWhenyou hold secret counselthen (do) nothold secret counselfor sinand aggressionand disobedience(to) the Messengerbut hold secret counselfor righteousnessﲫﲬand pietyAnd fearAllahthe One Whoto Himyou will be gathered(9)

O believers! When you converse privately, let it not be for sin, aggression, or disobedience to the Messenger, but let it be for goodness and righteousness. And fear Allah, to Whom you will ˹all˺ be gathered.

58:10

Onlythe secret counsels(are) fromthe Shaitaanthat he may grievethose whobelievebut nothe (can) harm them(in) anythingexceptby Allah's permissionﲿﳀby Allah's permissionAnd uponAllahlet put (their) trustthe believers(10)

Secret talks are only inspired by Satan to grieve the believers. Yet he cannot harm them whatsoever except by Allah’s Will. So in Allah let the believers put their trust.

58:11

O believers! When you are told to make room in gatherings, then do so. Allah will make room for you ˹in His grace˺. And if you are told to rise, then do so. Allah will elevate those of you who are faithful, and ˹raise˺ those gifted with knowledge in rank. And Allah is All-Aware of what you do.
