| 48:2 | | that Allah may protect you from (every) sin of yours which you (could) send in advance and which you (could) leave behind and complete His favour on you and guide you on the right path, |

Say, “Then who can control anything for you against Allah, if He intends to harm you or intends to benefit you? No, Allah is informed of that which you do.” |
| 48:12 | | No, you expected that the messenger of Allah and the believers will never return to their people, and that was made fair seeming to your hearts, and you expected an evil expectation and you are a people who are lost. |
| 48:13 | | And whoever does not believe in Allah and His messenger, We have certainly prepared a blazing fire for (such) infidels. |
| 48:14 | | And Allah’s is the kingdom of the skies and the earth, He protectively forgives whom He wills and He punishes whom He wills and Allah is Protectively Forgiving, Merciful. |
| 48:15 | | When you proceed to take the booty (of war), those who were left behind will say, “Allow us to follow you.” They intend to change the word of Allah, say, “You will never follow us, thus has Allah said before.” Then they will say, “No, you are jealous of us.” No, they do not understand except a little. |

| 48:19 | | and much booty which they take, and Allah is Mighty, Wise. |
| 48:20 | | Allah promised you much booty which you will take, then He hastened this for you and held back the hands of men from you so that it may be a sign for the believers and (that) He may guide you on the straight path, |
| 48:21 | | and other (gains) on which you do not have power (right now), Allah has indeed encompassed them (for you) and Allah has power over everything, |
| 48:22 | | And if those who do not believe fight with you, they would certainly turn (their) backs, then they would not find any guardian or a helper. |
| 48:23 | | (This has been the) procedure of Allah which has passed earlier and you will never find a change in the procedure of Allah. |
| 48:24 | | And it was He Who had held back their hands from you and your hands from them in the interior of Mecca, after He had given you victory over them , and Allah is the Seer of what you do. |
| 48:25 | | Those were the persons who did not believe and turned you away from the Sacred Mosque and stopped the offering from reaching its destination. And had believing men and believing women not been there, whom you did not know and whom you would have trampled, then distress would have befallen you on account of them, unknowingly. (You were held back) so that Allah may make to enter into His mercy, whom He wills. Had they (the believers and infidels) been separated (one from another). We would have punished those who did not believe from among them, with a painful punishment. |
| 48:26 | | When those who did not believe, cherished in their hearts a rage and (that too) the rage of ignorance, then Allah sent down His tranquility on His messenger and on the believers, and made them stick to the statement of restrain, and they deserved it and were worthy of it, and Allah has knowledge of everything. |
| 48:27 | | Allah indeed made true, His messenger’s vision of reality, that if Allah wills, you will definitely enter the Sacred Mosque secure, (some) having your heads shaved while (others having their hair) reduced, (entering) without fear. So He knew that which you did not know, therefore He brought about a near victory (of Khaiber), besides that. |
| 48:28 | | He it is Who has sent His messenger with guidance and the religion of truth that He may make it prevail over every religion, and Allah is sufficient as a Witness. |
| 48:29 | | Muhammed is the messenger of Allah, and those with him are strong against the infidels and merciful among themselves. You see them bowing down, prostrating, seeking grace from Allah and (His) pleasure, their marks due to the effect of, prostrations are there in their faces. That is their likeness (mentioned) in the Torah and their likeness mentioned in the Injeel. (They are) like vegetation which (first) puts forth its sprout then it becomes firm then it becomes thick, then it stands balanced on its stem, pleasing the sowers, that He may make the infidels angry through them. Allah has promised those among them who believe and do righteous works, protective forgiveness and a great reward. |
