O Prophet! When the believing women come to you, pledging to you that they will neither associate anything with Allah ˹in worship˺, nor steal, nor fornicate, nor kill their children, nor falsely attribute ˹illegitimate˺ children to their husbands, nor disobey you in what is right, then accept their pledge, and ask Allah to forgive them. Surely Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

O believers! Do not ally yourselves with a people Allah is displeased with. They already have no hope for the Hereafter, just like the disbelievers lying in ˹their˺ graves.

In the Name of Allah—the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful.

Whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth glorifies Allah. For He ˹alone˺ is the Almighty, All-Wise.

Surely Allah loves those who fight in His cause in ˹solid˺ ranks as if they were one concrete structure.

ﲩAnd whenﲪsaidﲫMusaﲬto his peopleﲭO my peopleﲮWhyﲯdo you hurt meﲰwhile certainlyﲱyou knowﲲthat I amﲳ(the) Messengerﲴ(of) Allahﲵﲶto youﲷThen whenﲸthey deviatedﲹ(was caused to) deviateﲺ(by) Allahﲻﲼtheir heartsﲽAnd Allahﲾ(does) notﲿguideﳀthe peopleﳁthe defiantly disobedientﳂ
˹Remember, O Prophet,˺ when Moses said to his people, “O my people! Why do you hurt me when you already know I am Allah’s messenger to you?” So when they ˹persistently˺ deviated, Allah caused their hearts to deviate. For Allah does not guide the rebellious people.
