Three translations of the Koran (Al-Qur'an) side by side
Qur'an
In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.
008.001
Y: They ask thee concerning (things taken as) spoils of war. Say:
"(such) spoils are at the disposal of Allah and the Messenger: So fear
Allah, and keep straight the relations between yourselves: Obey Allah
and His Messenger, if ye do believe."
P: They ask thee (O Muhammad) of the spoils of war. Say: The spoils of
war belong to Allah and the messenger, so keep your duty to Allah, and
adjust the matter of your difference, and obey Allah and His messenger,
if ye are (true) believers.
S: They ask you about the windfalls. Say: The windfalls are for Allah
and the Messenger. So be careful of (your duty to) Allah and set aright
matters of your difference, and obey Allah and His Messenger if you are
believers.
008.002
Y: For, Believers are those who, when Allah is mentioned, feel a tremor
in their hearts, and when they hear His signs rehearsed, find their
faith strengthened, and put (all) their trust in their Lord;
P: They only are the (true) believers whose hearts feel fear when Allah
is mentioned, and when His revelations are recited unto them they
increase their faith, and who trust in their Lord;
S: Those only are believers whose hearts become full of fear when Allah
is mentioned, and when His communications are recited to them they
increase them in faith, and in their Lord do they trust.
008.003
Y: Who establish regular prayers and spend (freely) out of the gifts We
have given them for sustenance:
P: Who establish worship and spend of that We have bestowed on them.
S: Those who keep up prayer and spend (benevolently) out of what We have
given them.
008.004
Y: Such in truth are the believers: they have grades of dignity with
their Lord, and forgiveness, and generous sustenance:
P: Those are they who are in truth believers. For them are grades (of
honour) with their Lord, and pardon, and a bountiful provision.
S: These are the believers in truth; they shall have from their Lord
exalted grades and forgiveness and an honorable sustenance.
008.005
Y: Just as thy Lord ordered thee out of thy house in truth, even though
a party among the Believers disliked it,
P: Even as thy Lord caused thee (Muhammad) to go forth from thy home
with the Truth, and lo! a party of the believers were averse (to it).
S: Even as your Lord caused you to go forth from your house with the
truth, though a party of the believers were surely averse;
008.006
Y: Disputing with thee concerning the truth after it was made manifest,
as if they were being driven to death and they (actually) saw it.
P: Disputing with thee of the Truth after it had been made manifest, as
if they were being driven to death visible.
S: They disputed with you about the truth after it had become clear,
(and they went forth) as if they were being driven to death while they
saw (it).
