قُلْ
إِن
كَانَ
آبَاؤُكُمْ
وَأَبْنَاؤُكُمْ
وَإِخْوَانُكُمْ
وَأَزْوَاجُكُمْ
وَعَشِيرَتُكُمْ
وَأَمْوَالٌ
اقْتَرَفْتُمُوهَا
وَتِجَارَةٌ
تَخْشَوْنَ
كَسَادَهَا
وَمَسَاكِنُ
تَرْضَوْنَهَا
أَحَبَّ
إِلَيْكُم
مِّنَ
اللَّهِ
وَرَسُولِهِ
وَجِهَادٍ
فِي
سَبِيلِهِ
فَتَرَبَّصُوا
حَتَّى
يَأْتِيَ
اللَّهُ
بِأَمْرِهِ
وَاللَّهُ
لَا
يَهْدِي
الْقَوْمَ
الْفَاسِقِينَ

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 Allah, or His Messenger, or the striving in His cause;- then wait until Allah brings about His decision: and Allah guides not the rebellious.
— Abdullah Yusufali
Say, ‘If your fathers and your sons, your brethren, your spouses, and your kinsfolk, the possessions that you have acquired, the business you fear may suffer, and the dwellings you are fond of, are dearer to you than Allah and His Apostle and to waging jihad in His way, then wait until Allah issues His edict, and Allah does not guide the transgressing lot.
