Surah Al-Hashr (الحشر)

The Exile · Medinan · 24 ayahs · Juz 28

• 59:1

  سَبَّحَ لِلَّهِ مَا فِى ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَمَا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ ۖ وَهُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْحَكِيمُ

  Whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on earth (even though many things appear to be non-living to man) glorifies (celebrates the pureness of) Allaah. He is the Mighty, the Wise.

• 59:2

  هُوَ ٱلَّذِىٓ أَخْرَجَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِنْ أَهْلِ ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ مِن دِيَـٰرِهِمْ لِأَوَّلِ ٱلْحَشْرِ ۚ مَا ظَنَنتُمْ أَن يَخْرُجُوا۟ ۖ وَظَنُّوٓا۟ أَنَّهُم مَّانِعَتُهُمْ حُصُونُهُم مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ فَأَتَىٰهُمُ ٱللَّهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَمْ يَحْتَسِبُوا۟ ۖ وَقَذَفَ فِى قُلُوبِهِمُ ٱلرُّعْبَ ۚ يُخْرِبُونَ بُيُوتَهُم بِأَيْدِيهِمْ وَأَيْدِى ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَٱعْتَبِرُوا۟ يَـٰٓأُو۟لِى ٱلْأَبْصَـٰرِ

  It was He who removed (expelled) the Kuffaar from among the People of the Book (the Jewish Banu Nadheer tribe) from their homes (in Madinah) for the first exile (when they attempted to assassinate Rasulullaah ﷺ. After being banished from Madinah, they proceeded to live in Khaybar). You (Muslims) never thought that they (the Jews) would emerge (from their fortresses to surrender) and they thought that their fortresses would save them from Allaah, but Allaah's grasp came to them from where they never expected. (Being well-equipped and wealthy, the Jews did not expect that they would be defeated by the Muslims who were not as wealthy or as well-equipped as them.) Allaah cast terror (for the Muslims) into their hearts (the hearts of the Jews) and (when they prepared to leave Madinah,) they uprooted (took down) their homes with their own hands (to take with them as much as they could carry) and with the hands of the Mu'mineen (who assisted them to leave). So take heed, O people with insight! (Keep in mind that those who oppose Allaah and Rasulullaah ﷺ are humiliated even in this world.)

• 59:3

  وَلَوْلَآ أَن كَتَبَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْجَلَآءَ لَعَذَّبَهُمْ فِى ٱلدُّنْيَا ۖ وَلَهُمْ فِى ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ عَذَابُ ٱلنَّارِ

  If Allaah had not decreed the exile for them, He would certainly have punished them in this world (by having them executed). And in the Aakhirah, theirs shall be the punishment of the Fire (of Jahannam which will not be reduced).

• 59:4

  ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ شَآقُّوا۟ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ ۖ وَمَن يُشَآقِّ ٱللَّهَ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ شَدِيدُ ٱلْعِقَابِ

  This (punishment in both worlds) is (deserved) because they opposed (openly) Allaah and His Rasool ﷺ, Whoever opposes Allaah and His Rasool ﷺ, then (he should know that) verily Allaah punishes very severely.

• 59:5

  مَا قَطَعْتُم مِّن لِّينَةٍ أَوْ تَرَكْتُمُوهَا قَآئِمَةً عَلَىٰٓ أُصُولِهَا فَبِإِذْنِ ٱللَّهِ وَلِيُخْزِىَ ٱلْفَـٰسِقِينَ

  (Referring to the date plantations of the Banu Nadheer that the Muslims destroyed to break the morale of the Jews for them to surrender, Allaah says,) Every date palm that you (Muslims) cut (and burnt) or left standing on its roots was by Allaah's permission and to humiliate the sinners. (It was done by Allaah's command and not merely to destroy property.)

• 59:6

  وَمَآ أَفَآءَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ رَسُولِهِۦ مِنْهُمْ فَمَآ أَوْجَفْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ خَيْلٍ وَلَا رِكَابٍ وَلَـٰكِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُسَلِّطُ رُسُلَهُۥ عَلَىٰ مَن يَشَآءُ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَدِيرٌ

  You (Muslims) neither ran your horses nor your camels for the booty (wealth) that Allaah gave to His Rasool ﷺ (You won the battle without much travelling and without a fight.) (It is the practice of Allaah that) Allaah grants His Rusul authority over whoever He pleases (even without a fight). Allaah has power over everything.

• 59:7

  مَّآ أَفَآءَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ رَسُولِهِۦ مِنْ أَهْلِ ٱلْقُرَىٰ فَلِلَّهِ وَلِلرَّسُولِ وَلِذِى ٱلْقُرْبَىٰ وَٱلْيَتَـٰمَىٰ وَٱلْمَسَـٰكِينِ وَٱبْنِ ٱلسَّبِيلِ كَىْ لَا يَكُونَ دُولَةًۢ بَيْنَ ٱلْأَغْنِيَآءِ مِنكُمْ ۚ وَمَآ ءَاتَىٰكُمُ ٱلرَّسُولُ فَخُذُوهُ وَمَا نَهَىٰكُمْ عَنْهُ فَٱنتَهُوا۟ ۚ وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ ۖ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ شَدِيدُ ٱلْعِقَابِ

  The booty (wealth) that Allaah granted His Rasool ﷺ (without a battle being fought) from the people of the villages is for Allaah (to be distributed as Allaah pleases), for the (needs of the) Rasool ﷺ, for the relatives (of Rasulullaah ﷺ), for the orphans, for the poor and for the travellers so that this wealth may not remain as horded riches with the wealthy among you. (By distributing it in this manner, the wealth is circulated among people so that all may benefit). Hold fast to what (commands) the Rasool ﷺ gives you and refrain from what (actions) He prevents you (because whatever he instructs you is from Allaah). Fear (disobeying) Allaah, for Allaah punishes very severely.
