Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran
Surely those who pledge allegiance to you ˹O Prophet˺ are actually pledging allegiance to Allah. Allah’s
Hand is over theirs. Whoever breaks their pledge, it will only be to their own loss. And whoever fulfils their pledge to Allah, He will grant them a great reward.

Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran
Have you not ˹already˺ received the stories of those who were before you: the people of Noah, ’Âd, Thamûd, and those after them? Only Allah knows how many they were. Their messengers came to them with clear proofs, but they put their
hands over their mouths
1 and said, “We totally reject what you have been sent with, and we are certainly in alarming doubt about what you are inviting us to.”
56:9 - Al-Waqi'ah
Verse 9
وَأَصۡحَٰبُ

But they will never wish for that because of what their
hands have done.

except with their wives or those ˹bondwomen˺ in their possession,
1 for then they are free from blame,

Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran
If you fear you might fail to give orphan women their ˹due˺ rights ˹if you were to marry them˺, then marry other women of your choice—two, three, or four. But if you are afraid you will fail to maintain justice, then ˹content yourselves with˺ one
1 or those ˹bondwomen˺ in your possession.
2 This way you are less likely to commit injustice.

Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran
He is the One Who expelled the disbelievers of the People of the Book from their homes for ˹their˺ first banishment ˹ever˺. You never thought they would go. And they thought their strongholds would put them out of Allah’s reach. But ˹the decree of˺ Allah came upon them from where they never expected. And He cast horror into their hearts so they destroyed their houses with their own
hands and the
hands of the believers.
1 So take a lesson ˹from this˺, O people of insight!
