| 49:1 | | You who believe, do not put (your opinion) ahead of God and His messenger and be cautious of God. Indeed God hears all, knows all. |
| 49:2 | | You who believe, do not raise you voices above the prophet's voice and do not talk to him loudly as you talk loud to each other, that your works becomes useless while you do not realize |
| 49:3 | | Indeed those who lower their voices before God’s messenger, they are those whom God tested their hearts for self control (against unlawful desires and sins), they have forgiveness and a great reward |
| 49:4 | | Indeed those who call you from behind the rooms (and chambers), most of them do not understand |
| 49:5 | | And if they wait until you come out to them, that is better for them. God is forgiving and merciful |
| 49:6 | | You who believe, if a disobedient one comes to you with any news, then clarify it so that you do not harm some people ignorantly, and you become sorry about what you did |
| 49:7 | | And know that God’s messenger is among you. If he obeys you in most of the issues, you would certainly be in trouble, but God made you like the belief and He beautified it in your hearts, and He made you dislike the disbelief and the disobedience and the rebellion. They are the rightly guided ones |
| 49:8 | | A grace and a favor from God, and God is knowledgeable and wise |
| 49:9 | | If two groups of the believers fight, then make peace between them, and if one of them treated the other unjustly then fight the one who did injustice until it returns to God’s command, and if it returned then make peace between them fairly and be just. Indeed God loves those who are just |
| 49:10 | | Indeed the believers are brothers, so make peace between your brothers, and be cautious of God, that you may receive mercy |
| 49:11 | | You who believe, people should not ridicule other people, as perhaps they may be better than them, and women should not (ridicule) other women, as perhaps they may be better than them, and do not criticize (and find fault about) each other, and do not call (and offend each other) by nicknames, as after the belief (calling by) the bad name is disobedience, and whoever does not repent then they are the wrongdoers |
| 49:12 | | You who believe, avoid most of the suspicions, as indeed some suspicions are sin, and do not snoop, and do not defame/backbite each other, for would any one of you like to eat his dead brother’s flesh? You would hate it. And be cautious of God. Indeed God is acceptor of repentance and merciful |
| 49:13 | | People, indeed We created you from a male and a female, and We made you into races (and nations) and tribes so that you know each other. Indeed the more honorable of you before God are those of you having most self control (against unlawful desires and sins). Indeed God is knowledgeable and well informed |
| 49:14 | | The desert Arabs said: we believe. Say: you did not believe, but say we surrendered (to you, and not yet to God), while the belief has not yet entered your hearts. And if you obey God and His messenger, He would not reduce anything from your works. God is forgiving and merciful |
| 49:15 | | Indeed the believers are those who believed in God and His messenger, then they did not doubt and they tried hard with their possessions and their lives in God’s way. They are the truthful ones |
| 49:16 | | Say: do you inform God about your way of life while God knows whatever is in the skies and whatever is on the earth? And God knows everything |
| 49:17 | | They consider it a favor to you that they submitted, say: do not consider your submission as a favor to me, but God favored you to guide you to the belief, if you are truthful |
| 49:18 | | Indeed God knows the unseen (and secrets) of the skies and the earth. And God sees whatever you do |
