48.11 . Those of the wandering Arabs who were left behind will tell thee : Our possessions and our households occupied us , so ask forgiveness for us! They speak with their tongues that which is not in their hearts . Say : Who can avail you aught against Allah , if he intend you hurt or intend you profit? Nay , but Allah is ever Aware of what ye do .
48. 48.12 . Nay , but ye deemed that the messenger and the believers would never return to their own folk , and that was made fair seeming in your hearts , and ye did think an evil thought , and ye were worthless folk .
48. 48.13 . And as for him who believeth not in Allah and His messenger Lo! We have prepared a flame for disbelievers .
48. 48.14 . And Allah ' s is the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth . He forgiveth whom He will , and punisheth whom He will . And Allah is ever Forgiving , Merciful .
48. 48.15 . Those who were left behind will say , when ye set forth to capture booty : Let us go with you . They fain would change the verdict of Allah . Say ( unto them , O Muhammad ) : Ye shall not go with us . Thus hath Allah said beforehand . Then they will say : Ye are envious of us . Nay , but they understand not , save a little .
48. 48.16 . Say unto those of the wandering Arabs who were left behind : Ye will be called against a folk of mighty prowess , to fight them until they surrender ; and if ye obey , Allah will give you a fair reward ; but if ye turn away as ye did turn away before , He will punish you with a painful doom .
48. 48.17 . There is no blame for the blind , nor is there blame for the lame , nor is there blame for the sick ( that they go not forth to war ) . And whoso obeyeth Allah and His messenger , He will make him enter Gardens underneath which rivers flow ; and whoso turneth back , him will He punish with a painful doom .
48. 48.18 . Allah was well pleased with the believers when they swore allegiance unto thee beneath the tree , and He knew what was in their hearts , and He sent down peace of reassurance on them , and hath rewarded them with a near victory ;
48. 48.19 . And much booty that they will capture . Allah is ever Mighty , Wise .
48. 48.20 . Allah promiseth you much booty that ye will capture , and hath given you this in advance , and hath withheld men ' s hands from you , that it may be a token for the believers , and that He may guide you on a right path .
