يَسْـَٔلُونَكَ
They ask you
عَنِ
about
ٱلشَّهْرِ
the situation of
ٱلْحَرَامِ
the binding restriction,
قِتَالٍۢ
fighting
فِيهِ
in it.

Say,
قِتَالٌۭ
[Fighting

Inviolation,

its residents
مِنْهُ
from it
أَكْبَرُ

near
ٱللَّهِ
the One;
ۚ
وَٱلْفِتْنَةُ
and sedition is
أَكْبَرُ
bigger

they will hesitate that

فَيَمُتْ
then he died
وَهُوَ

They ask you about the situation of the binding restriction, fighting in it. Say, [Fighting in it is mighty; while stopping from way of the One, and denying about it, and (stopping from) the institute of Inviolation, and eviction of its residents from it is mightier near the One; and sedition is bigger than the killing; and not they will hesitate that they kill you until they turn you away from your governance system if they can; and whoever turns away from you all from His governance system then he died while he was a deniar then they will lose their deeds in this life and the forthcoming; and they are companions of the fire, they therein will be living.]

⦿
They question thee (O Muhammad) with regard to warfare in the sacred month. Say: Warfare therein is a great (transgression), but to turn (men) from the way of Allah, and to disbelieve in Him and in the Inviolable Place of Worship, and to expel His people thence, is a greater with Allah; for persecution is worse than killing. And they will not cease from fighting against you till they have made you renegades from your religion, if they can. And whoso becometh a renegade and dieth in his disbelief: such are they whose works have fallen both in the world and the Hereafter. Such are rightful owners of the Fire: they will abide therein.
- Pickthall, Marmaduke
⦿
They ask you concerning warfare in the holy month. Say, [It is an outrageous thing to fight in it, but to keep [people] from Allah]s way, and to be unfaithful to Him, and [to keep people from] the Holy Mosque, and to expel its people from it are more outrageous with Allah. And persecution is graver than killing. They will not cease fighting you until they turn you away from your religion, if they can. And whoever of you turns away from his religion and dies faithless—they are the ones whose works have failed in this world and the Hereafter. They shall be the inmates of the Fire, and they shall remain in it [forever].
- Qarai, Ali Quli
⦿
(Muhammad), they ask you about fighting in the sacred month. Tell them that it is a great sin. However, creating an obstacle in the way of God, disbelief in Him and the Sacred Mosque, and driving away the neighbors of the Sacred Mosque is an even greater sin in the sight of God: Disbelief in God is worse than committing murder. (The pagans) still try to fight you to make you give up your religion. The deeds in this life of those of you who give up their religion and who die disbelievers will be made void and in the life hereafter. These people will be the dwellers of Hell wherein they will remain forever.
- Sarwar, Muhammad
⦿
They ask you concerning the sacred month about fighting in it. Say: Fighting in it is a grave matter, and hindering (men) from Allah's way and denying Him, and (hindering men from) the Sacred Mosque and turning its people out of it, are still graver with Allah, and persecution is graver than slaughter; and they will not cease fighting with you until they turn you back from your religion, if they can; and whoever of you turns back from his religion, then he dies while an unbeliever-- these it is whose works shall go for nothing in this world and the hereafter, and they are the inmates of the fire; therein they shall abide.
- Shakir, Habib
⦿
They ask you about fighting in the sacred month. Say, [To fight [in a sacred month] is a grave matter; but barring people from the path of God, to deny Him, and expelling people from the Sacred Mosque are far graver in His sight; and persecution is worse than killing.] They will not stop fighting you until they make you renounce your faith, if they can. Whoever of you turns back from his faith and dies as a denier of the truth will have his deeds come to nothing in this world and the Hereafter, and he will be an inhabitant of the Fire, to abide therein forever.

پیغمبر یہ آپ سے محترم مہینوں کے جہاد کے بارے میں سوال کرتے ہیں تو آپ کہہ دیجئے کہ ان میں جنگ کرنا گناہ کبیرہ ہے اور راسِ خدا سے روکنا اور خدا اورمسجدالحرام کی حرمت کا انکار ہے اور اہلِ مسجد الحرام کا وہاںسے نکال دینا خدا کی نگاہ میں جنگ سے بھی بدتر گناہ ہے اور فتنہ تو قتل سے بھی بڑا جرم ہے--- اور یہ کفار برابر تم لوگوں سے جنگ کرتے رہیں گے یہاں تک کہ ان کے امکان میں ہو تو تم کو تمہارے دین سے پلٹا دیں. اور جو بھی اپنے دین سے پلٹ جائے گا اور کفر کی حالت میں مر جائے گا اس کے سارے اعمال برباد ہوجائیں گئے اور وہ جہنّمی ہوگا اور وہیں ہمیشہ رہے گا
- Jawadi, Zeeshan
⦿
لوگ پوچھتے ہیں ماہ حرام میں لڑنا کیسا ہے؟ کہو: اِس میں لڑ نا بہت برا ہے، مگر راہ خدا سے لوگوں کو روکنا اور اللہ سے کفر کرنا اور مسجد حرام کا راستہ خدا پرستوں پر بند کرنا اور حرم کے رہنے والوں کو وہاں سے نکالنا اللہ کے نزدیک اِس سے بھی زیادہ برا ہے اور فتنہ خونریزی سے شدید تر ہے وہ تو تم سے لڑے ہی جائیں گے حتیٰ کہ اگر اُن کا بس چلے، تو تمہیں اِس دین سے پھرا لے جائیں (اور یہ خوب سمجھ لو کہ) تم میں سے جو کوئی اس دین سے پھرے گا اور کفر کی حالت میں جان دے گا، اس کے اعمال دنیا اور آخرت دونوں میں ضائع ہو جائیں گے ایسے سب لوگ جہنمی ہیں اور ہمیشہ جہنم ہی میں رہیں گے
- Maududi, Abul A'ala
⦿
تم سے پوچھتے ہیں ماہ حرام میں لڑنے کا حکم تم فرماؤ اس میں لڑنا بڑا گناہ ہے اور اللہ کی راہ سے روکنا اور اس پر ایمان نہ لانا اور مسجد حرام سے روکنا، اور اس کے بسنے والوں کو نکال دینا اللہ کے نزدیک یہ گناہ اس سے بھی بڑے ہیں اور ان کا فساد قتل سے سخت تر ہے اور ہمیشہ تم سے لڑتے رہیں گے یہاں تک کہ تمہیں تمہارے دین سے پھیردیں اگر بن پڑے اور تم میں جو کوئی اپنے دین سے پھرے پھر کافر ہوکر مرے تو ان لوگوں کا کیا اکارت گیا دنیا میں اور آخرت میں اور وہ دوزخ والے ہیں انہیں اس میں ہمیشہ رہنا،
- Ahmed Raza
⦿
(مشرک) لوگ آپ سے حرمت والے مہینے میں جنگ کرنے کے متعلق سوال کرتے ہیں۔ کہہ دیجیے اس میں جنگ کرنا بڑا جرم ہے (مگر) خدا کی راہ سے روکنا، اور اس کا انکار کرنا اور مسجد (کی حرمت) کا انکار کرنا (اور لوگوں کو اس سے روکنا) اور اس کے باشندوں کو وہاں سے نکالنا۔ خدا کے نزدیک اس (جنگ) سے بھی بڑا جرم ہے۔ اور فتنہ گری قتل سے بھی زیادہ سنگین گناہ ہے۔ اور وہ لوگ برابر تم سے لڑتے رہیں گے یہاں تک کہ اگر ان کا بس چلے تو وہ تمہیں تمہارے دین سے ہی پلٹا دیں۔ (مگر یاد رکھو) کہ تم میں سے جو بھی اپنے دین سے پھر کر کفر کی حالت میں مرے گا۔ تو یہ وہ بدنصیب لوگ ہیں جن کے اعمال دنیا و آخرت میں رائیگاں ہو جائیں گے۔ یہی لوگ دوزخی ہیں جو ہمیشہ ہمیشہ اس میں رہیں گے۔

This website is a work of passion. It exists only for a couple of reasons:

1) I wanted to understand the Book without involving any second-party sources of guidance i.e. exegesis, or Asbab-e-Nuzul, or extra-Quranic ahadith, etc.
2) You must also know what the bare truth is, so we can work together.

Because the process must be transparent, the entire website is available for you to download. You can go through the code, and if you can make any improvements to this process, you are most welcome to. It is a humble request to update me regarding the improvements so I can also update myself.




Due Credits:

This website was possible by help of many people and forums who helped me to learn Arabic, Philosophy, Law, Psychology, and PHP and other Web scripts. To be honest, I do not even know the names of many but I did learn from them. Some of these people were already dead by the time I read their input.

The entire code of this website is available for the same reason, that what they taught me, I can only pay it forward.


The Arabic text of the Quran was obtained from Tanzil. The additional translations were also obtained from Tanzil from this link.

The social-sharing images of verses were obtained from Legacy Quran.com, and were then resized for proper social-media display.
