إِن
يَمْسَسْكُمْ
قَرْحٌ
فَقَدْ
مَسَّ
الْقَوْمَ
قَرْحٌ
مِّثْلُهُ
وَتِلْكَ
الْأَيَّامُ
نُدَاوِلُهَا
بَيْنَ
النَّاسِ
وَلِيَعْلَمَ
اللَّهُ
الَّذِينَ
آمَنُوا
وَيَتَّخِذَ
مِنكُمْ
شُهَدَاءَ
وَاللَّهُ
لَا
يُحِبُّ
الظَّالِمِينَ
ʾin yamsaskum qarḥun fa-qad massa l-qawma qarḥun mithluhū wa-tilka l-ʾayyāmu nudāwiluhā bayna n-nāsi wa-li-yaʿlama llāhu lladhīna ʾāmanū wa-yattakhidha minkum shuhadāʾa wa-llāhu lā yuḥibbu ẓ-ẓālimīna
If a wound hath touched you, be sure a similar wound hath touched the others. Such days (of varying fortunes) We give to men and men by turns: that Allah may know those that believe, and that He may take to Himself from your ranks Martyr-witnesses (to Truth). And Allah loveth not those that do wrong.
— Abdullah Yusufali
If wounds afflict you, like wounds have already afflicted those people; and We make such vicissitudes rotate among mankind, so that Allah may ascertain those who have faith, and that He may take martyrs from among you, and Allah does not like the wrongdoers.
