Sura 9 At-Tawbah (The Repentance), ayah 3

  1. وَأَذَانٌ مِنَ اللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ إِلَى النَّاسِ يَوْمَ الْحَجِّ الْأَكْبَرِ أَنَّ اللَّهَ بَرِيءٌ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ ۙ وَرَسُولُهُ ۚ فَإِنْ تُبْتُمْ فَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لَكُمْ ۖ وَإِنْ تَوَلَّيْتُمْ فَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّكُمْ غَيْرُ مُعْجِزِي اللَّهِ ۗ وَبَشِّرِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ

    Translation by words

    وَأَذَٰنٌ
    And an announcement
    مِّنَ
    from Allah
    ٱللَّهِ
    from Allah
    وَرَسُولِهِۦٓ
    and His Messenger
    إِلَى
    to
    ٱلنَّاسِ
    the people
    يَوْمَ
    (on the) day
    ٱلْحَجِّ
    (of) the greater Pilgrimage
    ٱلْأَكْبَرِ
    (of) the greater Pilgrimage
    أَنَّ
    that
    ٱللَّهَ
    Allah
    بَرِىٓءٌ
    (is) free from obligations
    مِّنَ
    [of]
    ٱلْمُشْرِكِينَ
    (to) the polytheists,
    وَرَسُولُهُۥ
    and (so is) His Messenger.
    فَإِن
    So if
    تُبْتُمْ
    you repent,
    فَهُوَ
    then, it is
    خَيْرٌ
    best
    لَّكُمْ
    for you.
    وَإِن
    But if
    تَوَلَّيْتُمْ
    you turn away
    فَٱعْلَمُوٓا۟
    then know
    أَنَّكُمْ
    that you
    غَيْرُ
    (can) not
    مُعْجِزِى
    escape
    ٱللَّهِ
    Allah.
    وَبَشِّرِ
    And give glad tidings
    ٱلَّذِينَ
    (to) those who
    كَفَرُوا۟
    disbelieve
    بِعَذَابٍ
    of a punishment
    أَلِيمٍ
    painful.

    And (it is) an announcement from Allah and His Messenger to the people on the day of the greater pilgrimage that Allah is disassociated from the disbelievers, and (so is) His Messenger. So if you repent, that is best for you; but if you turn away - then know that you will not cause failure to Allah. And give tidings to those who disbelieve of a painful punishment.

    9:3
