يا ايها الذين امنوا اذا ضربتم في سبيل الله فتبينوا ولا تقولوا لمن القى اليكم السلام لست مؤمنا تبتغون عرض الحياة الدنيا فعند الله مغانم كثيرة كذلك كنتم من قبل فمن الله عليكم فتبينوا ان الله كان بما تعملون خبيرا

O ye who believe! When ye go abroad In the cause of God, Investigate carefully, And say not to any one Who offers you a salutation: "Thou art none of a Believer!" Coveting the perishable goods Of this life: with God Are profits and spoils abundant. Even thus were ye yourselves Before, till God conferred On you His favours: therefore Carefully investigate. For God is well aware Of all that ye do.
