Three translations of the Koran (Al-Qur'an) side by side
Qur'an
004.094
Y: O ye who believe! When ye go abroad in the cause of Allah,
investigate carefully, and say not to any one who offers you a
salutation: "Thou art none of a believer!" Coveting the perishable
goods of this life: with Allah are profits and spoils abundant.
Even thus were ye yourselves before, till Allah conferred on you
His favours: Therefore carefully investigate. For Allah is well
aware of all that ye do.
P: O ye who believe! When ye go forth (to fight) in the way of Allah, be
careful to discriminate, and say not unto one who offereth you peace:
"Thou art not a believer," seeking the chance profits of this life (so
that ye may despoil him). With Allah are plenteous spoils. Even thus
(as he now is) were ye before; but Allah hath since then been gracious
unto you. Therefore take care to discriminate. Allah is ever Informed
of what ye do.
S: O you who believe! when you go to war in Allah's way, make
investigation, and do not say to any one who offers you peace: You are
not a believer. Do you seek goods of this world's life! But with Allah
there are abundant gains; you too were such before, then Allah
conferred a benefit on you; therefore make investigation; surely Allah
is aware of what you do.
004.095
Y: Not equal are those believers who sit (at home) and receive no hurt,
and those who strive and fight in the cause of Allah with their goods
and their persons. Allah hath granted a grade higher to those who
strive and fight with their goods and persons than to those who sit (at
home). Unto all (in Faith) Hath Allah promised good: But those who
strive and fight Hath He distinguished above those who sit (at home) by
a special reward,-
P: Those of the believers who sit still, other than those who have a
(disabling) hurt, are not on an equality with those who strive in the
way of Allah with their wealth and lives. Allah hath conferred on those
who strive with their wealth and lives a rank above the sedentary. Unto
each Allah hath promised good, but He hath bestowed on those who strive
a great reward above the sedentary;
S: The holders back from among the believers, not having any injury, and
those who strive hard in Allah's way with their property and their
persons are not equal; Allah has made the strivers with their property
and their persons to excel the holders back a (high) degree, and to
each (class) Allah has promised good; and Allah shall grant to the
strivers above the holders back a mighty reward:
004.096
Y: Ranks specially bestowed by Him, and Forgiveness and Mercy. For Allah
is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
P: Degrees of rank from Him, and forgiveness and mercy. Allah is ever
Forgiving, Merciful.
S: (High) degrees from Him and protection and mercy, and Allah is
Forgiving, Merciful.
