O you who believe! be not like those who disbelieve and say of their brethren when they travel in the earth or engage in fighting: Had they been with us, they would not have died and they would not have been slain; so Allah makes this to be an intense regret in their hearts; and Allah gives life and causes death and Allah sees what you do.

So when the truth came to them from Us they said: This is most surely clear enchantment!

And there is not a thing but with Us are the treasures of it, and We do not send it down but in a known measure.

Then they found one from among Our servants whom We had granted mercy from Us and whom We had taught knowledge from Ourselves.

Therefore We responded to him and took off what harm he had, and We gave him his family and the like of them with them: a mercy from Us and a reminder to the worshippers.

But (now) when the truth has come to them from Us, they say: Why is he not given the like of what was given to Musa? What! did they not disbelieve in what Musa was given before? They say: Two magicians backing up each other; and they say: Surely we are unbelievers in all.

And not your wealth nor your children, are the things which bring you near Us in station, but whoever believes and does good, these it is for whom is a double reward for what they do, and they shall be secure in the highest places.

And most surely he had a nearness to Us and an excellent resort.

And most surely they were with Us, of the elect, the best.

So when he brought to them the truth from Us, they said: Slay the sons of those who believe with him and keep their women alive; and the struggle of the unbelievers will only come to a state of perdition.

We know indeed what the earth diminishes of them, and with Us is a writing that preserves.

A favor from Us; thus do We reward him who gives thanks.
