[48:2] For God will forgive all your past sins as well as your future ones and has completed His blessings upon you and will guide you to the straight path.
[48:4] He is the One who sent down tranquility into the hearts of the faithful in order to increase their faith. And to God belongs the armies of the vacua and matter. And God is All Knowledgeable, All Wise.
[48:5] For He will admit the faithful men and the faithful women into paradises with flowing streams beneath them, to abide therein forever, and remit their sins. And this, in the site of God, is a great victory.
[48:6] And He will punish the hypocrite men and the hypocrite women, and the men who set up partners for god and the women who set up partners for god, for they have harbored evil thoughts about God. Evil will encircle them and God's wrath will be upon them and He has cursed them and has promised them Gehenna, a miserable abode.
[48:10] Indeed those who pledged their allegiance to you are really pledging their allegiance to God, God's hand is above their hands. Therefore, whoever violates it, the violation is only detrimental to him. And whoever fulfills his covenant, God will soon give him a great recompense.
[48:11] The sedentary amongst the Arabs say to you; we are preoccupied with our jobs and our families, therefore, ask forgiveness for us. They utter with their tongues what is not in their hearts. Say; who then has any power in the least to protect you from God if He wills any harm for you or wills any benefit for you? However, God is All Cognizant of what you do.
[48:12] But, you thought that the messenger and the faithful would never come back to their families; and this was pleasing to your hearts, and you harbored evil thoughts, and you became wicked people.
[48:14] To God belongs the kingship of the vacua and matter. He forgives whomever He wills, and He punishes whomever He wills. And God is All Forgiving, All Merciful.
[48:15] The sedentary will say; when you come across any unexpected gain, let us follow you. They wish to change God's word. Say, you will not follow us in this manner, for God has said so previously. They will then say; you are jealous of us. On the contrary, they only have very little understanding.
[48:16] Say to the sedentary amongst the Arabs, that you will be asked to face a people who possess a great might, either you fight them or they make peace, therefore, if you obey, God will give you a wonderful recompense, but if you turn away like you turned away in the past, He will make you endure a painful suffering.
[48:17] There shall be no blame on the blind, nor is there any blame on the disabled, nor is there any blame on the ill. And anyone who obeys God and his messenger, He will admit him into paradises with flowing streams beneath them and anyone who turns away; He will make him suffer, a painful suffering.
[48:18] Indeed, God is pleased with the faithful who pledged allegiance to you under the tree. He knew what was in their hearts, therefore, He sent down upon them tranquility; and He rewarded them with an immediate victory;
[48:20] God has promised you many gains that you will acquire; He, therefore, has hastened this for you and He has withheld people’ hands from you, in order to serve as a sign for the faithful, and He guides you to a straight path.
[48:24] And He is the One who withheld their hands from you and your hands from them within Mecca after He granted you victory over them. And God is All Seer of what you do.
[48:25] They are the ones who remained unfaithful and barred you from the Sacred Mosque and even prevented your decreed offering to reach its destination. And there were faithful men and faithful women whom you did not know them and you were about to hurt them unknowingly, but God admits into His mercy whomever He wills. If they had been separate, We would have surely afflicted the unfaithful amongst them with a painful suffering.
[48:26] While those who remained unfaithful had disdain in their hearts, the disdain of ignorance; then God sent down His tranquility upon his messenger and upon the faithful, and He made them adhere to the word of righteousness, and they were more deserving of it and worthy of it. And God is All Knowledgeable of all things.
[48:27] Indeed God fulfilled His messenger's vision truthfully, that you shall enter the Sacred Mosque, God willing completely secure with heads shaved or a short haircut and you will have no fear. For He knew what you did not know, and besides that, He granted you an immediate victory.
[48:28] He is the One who has sent His messenger with guidance and the religion of truth, in order to overcome all religions. And God suffices as a witness -
[48:29] Muhammad is God's messenger. And those with him are stern against the unfaithful, and compassionate amongst themselves. You see them bowing and prostrating, seeking God's bounty and His approval. Their marks are on their faces because of repeated prostration. Such is their example in the Torah. And their example in the Gospel is like a plant that grows taller and stronger, pleasing the farmers and enraging the unfaithful. God has promised the faithful who lead a righteous life, forgiveness and a generous recompense.
