قُلْ إِن كَانَ ءَابَآؤُكُمْ وَأَبْنَآؤُكُمْ وَإِخْوَٰنُكُمْ وَأَزْوَٰجُكُمْ وَعَشِيرَتُكُمْ وَأَمْوَٰلٌ ٱقْتَرَفْتُمُوهَا وَتِجَٰرَةٌۭ تَخْشَوْنَ كَسَادَهَا وَمَسَٰكِنُ تَرْضَوْنَهَآ أَحَبَّ إِلَيْكُم مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِۦ وَجِهَادٍۢ فِى سَبِيلِهِۦ فَتَرَبَّصُوا۟ حَتَّىٰ يَأْتِىَ ٱللَّهُ بِأَمْرِهِۦ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ لَا يَهْدِى ٱلْقَوْمَ ٱلْفَٰسِقِينَ
How to read it
Qul' 'in kāna 'ābā'ukum' wa'ab'nā'ukum' wa'ikh'wānukum' wa'az'wājukum' waʻashīratukum' wa'am'wālun (i)q'taraf'tumūhā watijāratun takh'shaw'na kassādahā wamassākinu tar'ḍaw'nahā 'aḥabba 'ilay'kum mmina -llahi warassūlihī wajihādin fī sabīlihī fatarabbaṣū ḥattā ya''tiya -llahu bi'am'rihī . wa-llahu lā yah'dī l-qaw'ma l-fāssiqīna
Say: If it be that your fathers, your sons, your brothers, your mates, or your kindred; the wealth that ye have gained; the commerce in which ye fear a decline: or the dwellings in which ye delight - are dearer to you than Allah, or His Messenger, or the striving in His cause;- then wait until Allah brings about His decision: and Allah guides not the rebellious.
Translation: Abdullah Yusuf Ali
