وَ لِیُمَحِّصَ اللّٰهُ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَ یَمْحَقَ الْكٰفِرِیْنَ۝۱۴۱

This is so that God may try the faithful and destroy the unbelievers.

اَمْ حَسِبْتُمْ اَنْ تَدْخُلُوا الْجَنَّةَ وَ لَمَّا یَعْلَمِ اللّٰهُ الَّذِیْنَ جٰهَدُوْا مِنْكُمْ وَ یَعْلَمَ الصّٰبِرِیْنَ۝۱۴۲

Do you think you will go to Paradise while God does not know who among you strive and persist?

وَ لَقَدْ كُنْتُمْ تَمَنَّوْنَ الْمَوْتَ مِنْ قَبْلِ اَنْ تَلْقَوْهُ ۪ فَقَدْ رَاَیْتُمُوْهُ وَ اَنْتُمْ تَنْظُرُوْنَ۠۝۱۴۳

You had wished to know death before you faced it (in battle); so now you have seen it before your own eyes.

وَ مَا مُحَمَّدٌ اِلَّا رَسُوْلٌ ۚ قَدْ خَلَتْ مِنْ قَبْلِهِ الرُّسُلُ ؕ اَفَاۡىِٕنْ مَّاتَ اَوْ قُتِلَ انْقَلَبْتُمْ عَلٰۤی اَعْقَابِكُمْ ؕ وَ مَنْ یَّنْقَلِبْ عَلٰی عَقِبَیْهِ فَلَنْ یَّضُرَّ اللّٰهَ شَیْـًٔا ؕ وَ سَیَجْزِی اللّٰهُ الشّٰكِرِیْنَ۝۱۴۴

Muhammad is only a messenger; and many a messenger has gone before him. So what if he dies or is killed! Will you turn back and go away in haste? But he who turns back and goes away in haste will do no harm to God. But God will reward those who give thanks (and are grateful).

وَ مَا كَانَ لِنَفْسٍ اَنْ تَمُوْتَ اِلَّا بِاِذْنِ اللّٰهِ كِتٰبًا مُّؤَجَّلًا ؕ وَ مَنْ یُّرِدْ ثَوَابَ الدُّنْیَا نُؤْتِهٖ مِنْهَا ۚ وَ مَنْ یُّرِدْ ثَوَابَ الْاٰخِرَةِ نُؤْتِهٖ مِنْهَا ؕ وَ سَنَجْزِی الشّٰكِرِیْنَ۝۱۴۵

No one can die before his appointed term except in accordance with the law of God. And to him who desires a reward in this world, We shall give it; and to him who desires a reward in the life to come, We shall do that. We shall certainly reward those who are grateful.

وَ كَاَیِّنْ مِّنْ نَّبِیٍّ قٰتَلَ ۙ مَعَهٗ رِبِّیُّوْنَ كَثِیْرٌ ۚ فَمَا وَ هَنُوْا لِمَاۤ اَصَابَهُمْ فِیْ سَبِیْلِ اللّٰهِ وَ مَا ضَعُفُوْا وَ مَا اسْتَكَانُوْا ؕ وَ اللّٰهُ یُحِبُّ الصّٰبِرِیْنَ۝۱۴۶

Many a seeker after God has fought in the way of God by the side of many an apostle, undaunted (by disaster), and did not disgrace themselves; -- verily God loves those who are steadfast.

وَ مَا كَانَ قَوْلَهُمْ اِلَّاۤ اَنْ قَالُوْا رَبَّنَا اغْفِرْ لَنَا ذُنُوْبَنَا وَ اِسْرَافَنَا فِیْۤ اَمْرِنَا وَ ثَبِّتْ اَقْدَامَنَا وَ انْصُرْنَا عَلَی الْقَوْمِ الْكٰفِرِیْنَ۝۱۴۷

Nor did they say aught but: "O our Lord, forgive us our sins and excesses in our acts, and steady our steps, and help us against unbelieving people."

فَاٰتٰىهُمُ اللّٰهُ ثَوَابَ الدُّنْیَا وَ حُسْنَ ثَوَابِ الْاٰخِرَةِ ؕ وَ اللّٰهُ یُحِبُّ الْمُحْسِنِیْنَ۠۝۱۴۸

So God rewarded them in this world, and a better reward awaits them in the next; for God loves those who do good.

یٰۤاَیُّهَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْۤا اِنْ تُطِیْعُوا الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا یَرُدُّوْكُمْ عَلٰۤی اَعْقَابِكُمْ فَتَنْقَلِبُوْا خٰسِرِیْنَ۝۱۴۹

O believers, if you listen to the infidels they will make you turn your backs, and you will be the losers.

بَلِ اللّٰهُ مَوْلٰىكُمْ ۚ وَ هُوَ خَیْرُ النّٰصِرِیْنَ۝۱۵۰

But God is your protector, and He is the best of helpers.
