Surah Al Hashr With English Translations

سَبَّحَ لِلّٰهِ مَا فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَ مَا فِی الْاَرْضِۚ-وَ هُوَ الْعَزِیْزُ الْحَكِیْمُ(1)

Whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth glorifies Allah. And He is the Almighty, the All-Wise. (1)

هُوَ الَّذِیْۤ اَخْرَجَ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا مِنْ اَهْلِ الْكِتٰبِ مِنْ دِیَارِهِمْ لِاَوَّلِ الْحَشْرِﳳ-مَا ظَنَنْتُمْ اَنْ یَّخْرُجُوْا وَ ظَنُّوْۤا اَنَّهُمْ مَّانِعَتُهُمْ حُصُوْنُهُمْ مِّنَ اللّٰهِ فَاَتٰىهُمُ اللّٰهُ مِنْ حَیْثُ لَمْ یَحْتَسِبُوْاۗ-وَ قَذَفَ فِیْ قُلُوْبِهِمُ الرُّعْبَ یُخْرِبُوْنَ بُیُوْتَهُمْ بِاَیْدِیْهِمْ وَ اَیْدِی الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَۗ-فَاعْتَبِرُوْا یٰۤاُولِی الْاَبْصَارِ(2)

He is the One Who drove out the disbelievers among the People of the Book from their homes at the first gathering. You did not think they would leave, and they thought their fortresses would protect them from Allah. But Allah came at them from where they did not expect, and cast terror into their hearts. They destroyed their own homes with their own hands and the hands of the believers. So take heed, O people of insight! (2)

وَ لَوْ لَاۤ اَنْ كَتَبَ اللّٰهُ عَلَیْهِمُ الْجَلَآءَ لَعَذَّبَهُمْ فِی الدُّنْیَاؕ-وَ لَهُمْ فِی الْاٰخِرَةِ عَذَابُ النَّارِ(3)

Had Allah not decreed exile for them, He would have certainly punished them in this world. And in the Hereafter they will suffer the punishment of the Fire. (3)

ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّهُمْ شَآقُّوا اللّٰهَ وَ رَسُوْلَهٗۚ-وَ مَنْ یُّشَآقِّ اللّٰهَ فَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ شَدِیْدُ الْعِقَابِ(4)

That is because they defied Allah and His Messenger. And whoever defies Allah, then Allah is surely severe in punishment. (4)

مَا قَطَعْتُمْ مِّنْ لِّیْنَةٍ اَوْ تَرَكْتُمُوْهَا قَآىٕمَةً عَلٰۤى اُصُوْلِهَا فَبِاِذْنِ اللّٰهِ وَ لِیُخْزِیَ الْفٰسِقِیْنَ(5)

Whatever palm trees you cut down or left standing on their roots, it was by Allah’s Will, so that He might disgrace the rebellious. (5)

وَ مَاۤ اَفَآءَ اللّٰهُ عَلٰى رَسُوْلِهٖ مِنْهُمْ فَمَاۤ اَوْجَفْتُمْ عَلَیْهِ مِنْ خَیْلٍ وَّ لَا رِكَابٍ وَّ لٰكِنَّ اللّٰهَ یُسَلِّطُ رُسُلَهٗ عَلٰى مَنْ یَّشَآءُؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَیْءٍ قَدِیْرٌ(6)

As for the gains Allah has turned over to His Messenger from them—you did not even spur any horse or camel for such gains. But Allah gives authority to His messengers over whoever He wills. For Allah is Most Capable of everything. (6)

مَاۤ اَفَآءَ اللّٰهُ عَلٰى رَسُوْلِهٖ مِنْ اَهْلِ الْقُرٰى فَلِلّٰهِ وَ لِلرَّسُوْلِ وَ لِذِی الْقُرْبٰى وَ الْیَتٰمٰى وَ الْمَسٰكِیْنِ وَ ابْنِ السَّبِیْلِۙ- كَیْ لَا یَكُوْنَ دُوْلَةًۢ بَیْنَ الْاَغْنِیَآءِ مِنْكُمْؕ-وَ مَاۤ اٰتٰىكُمُ الرَّسُوْلُ فَخُذُوْهُۚ-وَ مَا نَهٰىكُمْ عَنْهُ فَانْتَهُوْاۚ-وَ اتَّقُوا اللّٰهَؕ-اِنَّ اللّٰهَ شَدِیْدُ الْعِقَابِﭥ(7)

Whatever Allah has restored to His Messenger from the people of the towns, it is for Allah, the Messenger, his relatives, the orphans, the poor, and the stranded traveler—so that wealth may not merely circulate among your rich. Whatever the Messenger gives you, take it. And whatever he forbids you from, leave it. And fear Allah. Surely Allah is severe in punishment. (7)

لِلْفُقَرَآءِ الْمُهٰجِرِیْنَ الَّذِیْنَ اُخْرِجُوْا مِنْ دِیَارِهِمْ وَ اَمْوَالِهِمْ یَبْتَغُوْنَ فَضْلًا مِّنَ اللّٰهِ وَ رِضْوَانًا وَّ یَنْصُرُوْنَ اللّٰهَ وَ رَسُوْلَهٗؕ-اُولٰٓىٕكَ هُمُ الصّٰدِقُوْنَ(8)

˹The spoils are also˺ for the poor emigrants who were driven out of their homes and wealth, seeking Allah’s bounty and pleasure, and standing up for Allah and His Messenger. It is they who are true ˹in faith˺. (8)

وَ الَّذِیْنَ تَبَوَّؤُ الدَّارَ وَ الْاِیْمَانَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ یُحِبُّوْنَ مَنْ هَاجَرَ اِلَیْهِمْ وَ لَا یَجِدُوْنَ فِیْ صُدُوْرِهِمْ حَاجَةً مِّمَّاۤ اُوْتُوْا وَ یُؤْثِرُوْنَ عَلٰۤى اَنْفُسِهِمْ وَ لَوْ كَانَ بِهِمْ خَصَاصَةٌ ﳴ وَ مَنْ یُّوْقَ شُحَّ نَفْسِهٖ فَاُولٰٓىٕكَ هُمُ الْمُفْلِحُوْنَ(9)

As for those who had settled in the city and ˹embraced˺ the faith before ˹the arrival of˺ the emigrants, they love whoever immigrates to them, never having a desire in their hearts for whatever ˹of the gains˺ is given to the emigrants. They give ˹the emigrants˺ preference over themselves even though they may be in need. And whoever is saved from the selfishness of their own souls, it is they who are ˹truly˺ successful. (9)

وَ الَّذِیْنَ جَآءُوْ مِنْۢ بَعْدِهِمْ یَقُوْلُوْنَ رَبَّنَا اغْفِرْ لَنَا وَ لِاِخْوَانِنَا الَّذِیْنَ سَبَقُوْنَا بِالْاِیْمَانِ وَ لَا تَجْعَلْ فِیْ قُلُوْبِنَا غِلًّا لِّلَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا رَبَّنَاۤ اِنَّكَ رَءُوْفٌ رَّحِیْمٌ(10)

And ˹there is˺ those who came after them, praying, “Our Lord! Forgive us and our fellow believers who preceded us in faith, and leave no resentment in our hearts towards the believers. Our Lord! Indeed, You are Ever Gracious, Most Merciful.” (10)

اَلَمْ تَرَ اِلَى الَّذِیْنَ نَافَقُوْا یَقُوْلُوْنَ لِاِخْوَانِهِمُ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا مِنْ اَهْلِ الْكِتٰبِ لَىٕنْ اُخْرِجْتُمْ لَنَخْرُجَنَّ مَعَكُمْ وَ لَا نُطِیْعُ فِیْكُمْ اَحَدًا اَبَدًاۙ-وَّ اِنْ قُوْتِلْتُمْ لَنَنْصُرَنَّكُمْؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ یَشْهَدُ اِنَّهُمْ لَكٰذِبُوْنَ(11)

Have you ˹O Prophet˺ not seen the hypocrites who say to their fellow disbelievers from the People of the Book, “If you are expelled, we will certainly leave with you, and we will never obey anyone against you. And if you are fought against, we will surely help you.” But Allah bears witness that they are truly liars. (11)

لَىٕنْ اُخْرِجُوْا لَا یَخْرُجُوْنَ مَعَهُمْۚ-وَ لَىٕنْ قُوْتِلُوْا لَا یَنْصُرُوْنَهُمْۚ-وَ لَىٕنْ نَّصَرُوْهُمْ لَیُوَلُّنَّ الْاَدْبَارَ۫-ثُمَّ لَا یُنْصَرُوْنَ(12)

If those ˹disbelievers˺ were expelled, the hypocrites would never leave with them. And if they were fought against, the hypocrites would never help them. And even if they did, they would certainly flee, then the hypocrites would never be helped. (12)

لَاۤ اَنْتُمْ اَشَدُّ رَهْبَةً فِیْ صُدُوْرِهِمْ مِّنَ اللّٰهِؕ-ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّهُمْ قَوْمٌ لَّا یَفْقَهُوْنَ(13)

It is not you ˹believers˺ that they fear, but it is Allah they dread—if only they had ˹true˺ understanding. (13)

لَا یُقَاتِلُوْنَكُمْ جَمِیْعًا اِلَّا فِیْ قُرًى مُّحَصَّنَةٍ اَوْ مِنْ وَّرَآءِ جُدُرٍؕ-بَاْسُهُمْ بَیْنَهُمْ شَدِیْدٌؕ-تَحْسَبُهُمْ جَمِیْعًا وَّ قُلُوْبُهُمْ شَتّٰىؕ-ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّهُمْ قَوْمٌ لَّا یَعْقِلُوْنَ(14)

They will never fight you all together except within fortified strongholds or from behind walls. There is much hostility between them. You think they are united, but their hearts are divided. That is because they are a people who do not reason. (14)

كَمَثَلِ الَّذِیْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ قَرِیْبًا ذَاقُوْا وَبَالَ اَمْرِهِمْۚ-وَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ اَلِیْمٌ(15)

Like those ˹hypocrites˺ shortly before them, they have already tasted the evil consequences of their doings. And they will suffer a painful punishment. (15)

كَمَثَلِ الشَّیْطٰنِ اِذْ قَالَ لِلْاِنْسَانِ اكْفُرْۚ-فَلَمَّا كَفَرَ قَالَ اِنِّیْ بَرِیْٓءٌ مِّنْكَ اِنِّیْۤ اَخَافُ اللّٰهَ رَبَّ الْعٰلَمِیْنَ(16)

They are like Satan who says to a human, “Disbelieve!” But when they disbelieve, he says, “I have absolutely nothing to do with you. I truly fear Allah—the Lord of all worlds.” (16)

فَكَانَ عَاقِبَتَهُمَاۤ اَنَّهُمَا فِی النَّارِ خَالِدَیْنِ فِیْهَاؕ-وَ ذٰلِكَ جَزٰٓؤُا الظّٰلِمِیْنَ(17)

So the fate of both will be the Fire, staying there forever. That is the reward of the wrongdoers. (17)

یٰۤاَیُّهَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ وَ لْتَنْظُرْ نَفْسٌ مَّا قَدَّمَتْ لِغَدٍۚ-وَ اتَّقُوا اللّٰهَؕ-اِنَّ اللّٰهَ خَبِیْرٌۢ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ(18)

O believers! Be mindful of Allah and let every soul look to what ˹deeds˺ it has sent forth for tomorrow. And fear Allah, ˹for˺ certainly Allah is All-Aware of what you do. (18)

وَ لَا تَكُوْنُوْا كَالَّذِیْنَ نَسُوا اللّٰهَ فَاَنْسٰىهُمْ اَنْفُسَهُمْؕ-اُولٰٓىٕكَ هُمُ الْفٰسِقُوْنَ(19)

And do not be like those who forgot Allah, so He made them forget themselves. It is they who are the rebellious. (19)

لَا یَسْتَوِیْۤ اَصْحٰبُ النَّارِ وَ اَصْحٰبُ الْجَنَّةِؕ-اَصْحٰبُ الْجَنَّةِ هُمُ الْفَآىٕزُوْنَ(20)

The people of the Fire and the people of Paradise are not equal. It is the people of Paradise who are the victorious. (20)

لَوْ اَنْزَلْنَا هٰذَا الْقُرْاٰنَ عَلٰى جَبَلٍ لَّرَاَیْتَهٗ خَاشِعًا مُّتَصَدِّعًا مِّنْ خَشْیَةِ اللّٰهِؕ-وَ تِلْكَ الْاَمْثَالُ نَضْرِبُهَا لِلنَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمْ یَتَفَكَّرُوْنَ(21)

Had We sent down this Quran upon a mountain, you would have certainly seen it humbled and torn apart in awe of Allah. We set forth such comparisons for people, ˹so˺ perhaps they may reflect. (21)

هُوَ اللّٰهُ الَّذِیْ لَاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا هُوَۚ-عٰلِمُ الْغَیْبِ وَ الشَّهَادَةِۚ-هُوَ الرَّحْمٰنُ الرَّحِیْمُ(22)

He is Allah—there is no god ˹worthy of worship˺ except Him. Knower of the seen and unseen. He is the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful. (22)

هُوَ اللّٰهُ الَّذِیْ لَاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا هُوَۚ-اَلْمَلِكُ الْقُدُّوْسُ السَّلٰمُ الْمُؤْمِنُ الْمُهَیْمِنُ الْعَزِیْزُ الْجَبَّارُ الْمُتَكَبِّرُؕ-سُبْحٰنَ اللّٰهِ عَمَّا یُشْرِكُوْنَ(23)

He is Allah—there is no god except Him: the King, the Most Holy, the All-Perfect, the Source of Serenity, the Watcher ˹of all˺, the Almighty, the Supreme in Might,1 the Majestic. Glorified is Allah far above what they associate ˹with Him˺! (23)

هُوَ اللّٰهُ الْخَالِقُ الْبَارِئُ الْمُصَوِّرُ لَهُ الْاَسْمَآءُ الْحُسْنٰىؕ-یُسَبِّحُ لَهٗ مَا فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَ الْاَرْضِۚ-وَ هُوَ الْعَزِیْزُ الْحَكِیْمُ(24)

He is Allah: the Creator, the Inventor, the Shaper. He ˹alone˺ has the Most Beautiful Names. Whatever is in the heavens and the earth ˹constantly˺ glorifies Him. And He is the Almighty, All-Wise. (24)
