4:80

(He) whoobeysthe Messengerthen surelyhe obeyedﱆﱇAllahand whoeverturns away then notWe (have) sent youover them(as) a guardian(80)

Whoever obeys the Messenger has truly obeyed Allah. But whoever turns away, then ˹know that˺ We have not sent you ˹O Prophet˺ as a keeper over them.

4:81

And they say(We pledge) obedienceThen whenthey leavefromyouplan by nighta groupof themother thanthat whichﱚﱛyou sayBut Allahrecordswhatﱟﱠthey plan by nightSo turn (away)from themand put (your) trustinﱥﱦAllahAnd sufficientis Allah(as) a Trustee(81)

And they say, “We obey,” but when they leave you, a group of them would spend the night contradicting what they said. Allah records all their schemes. So turn away from them, and put your trust in Allah. And Allah is sufficient as a Trustee of Affairs.

4:82

Then (do) notthey ponderﱭﱮ(on) the QuranAnd ifit had (been)(of)fromother thanAllahsurely they (would have) foundin itcontradictionmuch(82)

Do they not then reflect on the Quran? Had it been from anyone other than Allah, they would have certainly found in it many inconsistencies.

4:83

And when they hear news of security or fear,1 they publicize it. Had they referred it to the Messenger or their authorities, those with sound judgment among them would have validated it. Had it not been for Allah’s grace and mercy, you would have followed Satan—except for a few.

4:84

So fight in the cause of Allah ˹O Prophet˺. You are accountable for none but yourself. And motivate the believers ˹to fight˺, so perhaps Allah will curb the disbelievers’ might. And Allah is far superior in might and in punishment.

4:85

Whoeverintercedes an intercessiongoodwill havefor hima shareﲼﲽof itand whoeverﲿintercedes an intercessionevilwill havefor hima portionﳅﳆof itAnd isAllahoneverythinga Keeper(85)

Whoever intercedes for a good cause will have a share in the reward, and whoever intercedes for an evil cause will have a share in the burden. And Allah is Watchful over all things.

4:86

And whenyou are greetedwith a greetingthen greetwith betterthan itorﳕﳖreturn itIndeedAllahisofeverythingan Accountant(86)

And when you are greeted, respond with a better greeting or at least similarly. Surely Allah is a ˹vigilant˺ Reckoner of all things.
