قل ان كان اباؤكم وابناؤكم واخوانكم وازواجكم وعشيرتكم واموال اقترفتموها وتجارة تخشون كسادها ومساكن ترضونها احب اليكم من الله ورسوله وجهاد في سبيله فتربصوا حتى ياتي الله بامره والله لا يهدي القوم الفاسقين

Say; If it be that your fathers, Your sons, your brothers, Your mates, or your kindred; The wealth that ye have gained; The commerce in which ye fear A decline: or the dwellings In which ye delight— Are dearer to you than God, Or His Apostle, or the striving In His cause;—then wait Until God brings about His Decision: and God Guides not the rebellious.
