Surah An-Nisaa · Ayah 94·Madanī

94

ٱلَّذِينَ إِذَا فِى وَلَا لِمَنْ إِلَيْكُمُ كَذَٰلِكَ مِّن عَلَيْكُمْ إِنَّ بِمَا ﴿٩٤﴾

Translation

Saheeh International

O you who have believed, when you go forth [to fight] in the cause of Allah, investigate; and do not say to one who gives you [a greeting of] peace "You are not a believer," aspiring for the goods of worldly life; for with Allah are many acquisitions. You [yourselves] were like that before; then Allah conferred His favor upon you, so investigate. Indeed Allah is ever, with what you do, Acquainted.
