O you who believe! When you journey in the way of God, investigate, and do not say to him who offers you peace, "You are not a believer," aspiring for the goods of this world. With God are abundant riches. You yourselves were like this before, and God bestowed favor on you; so investigate. God is well aware of what you do.
What does "going out in God's way" mean in the Qur'an - is it about preaching tours?
In short
- The text says: when those who believe journey in the way of God they are to investigate, and not say to one who offers them peace that he is not a believer, where the renderings differ on whether the journey is to war (4:94); mobilize, light and heavy, and strive with your possessions and your lives in the cause of God, where the other four renderings speak of arms and fighting (9:41); and charity is for the poor who are restrained in the way of God and unable to travel in the land, where Rodwell and Sale have them taken up with fighting (2:273).
- The text does not say: that the words in the way of God mean a preaching tour.
- The rest comes from: outside the Qur'an. The practice readers ask about, known by the names Tablighi Jamaat, tabligh, going out, chilla and gasht, or a preaching trip, is named here and not described or judged.
Where the renderings split
4:94, Itani: "When you journey in the way of God"
4:94, Pickthall: "When ye go forth (to fight) in the way of Allah"
4:94, Palmer: "when ye are knocking about in the way of God"
4:94, Rodwell: "when ye go forth to the fight for the cause of God"
4:94, Sale: "when ye are on a march in defence of the true religion"
Key findingsEditorial
One finding for each passage this study carries, in the order the study reads them. Each is the reason that passage was signed into the study, in full and unedited - including, where the renderings disagree, the disagreement.
- 01 4:94 When you go forth, or journey, in the way of God, be discerning: the renderings name the going differently
- 02 9:41 Go forth, light and heavy, and strive with your wealth and your lives in the way of God
- 03 2:273 The poor who are restrained, or straitened, in the way of God and cannot travel in the land
In plain wordsEditorial written by the editors, not a translation
The words the question uses come together at 4:94, and the renderings split on what the going is. Itani has "When you journey in the way of God", and Palmer "when ye are knocking about in the way of God"; Pickthall adds "(to fight)", Rodwell has "go forth to the fight for the cause of God", and Sale "when ye are on a march in defence of the true religion".
At 9:41 the going out is joined to striving with wealth and lives: Pickthall has "Go forth, light-armed and heavy-armed, and strive with your wealth and your lives in the way of Allah!", and Sale has "Go forth to battle".
At 2:273 the way of God is the reason some cannot travel: Itani has "those who are restrained in the way of God, and unable to travel in the land".
In these verses the going out in the way of God is a march, a journey or a fight, as each translator renders it. No verse names a preaching tour.
Scope of this study
This platform shows the verse, its easy-read line, its translations, a plain-words reading, and each verse among its neighbours. It does not supply occasion of revelation, interpretation (tafsir) or history, and it never invents them.
What this rests on
Opens with 4:94, widening across 3 passages in all.
Easy-read
Easy-read is a simplified pronunciation, not authoritative — a rule-by-rule romanisation, not a reading. Each verse ends in its pause form, as it is said when you stop there. Pauses inside a verse and other tajwid rules are not shown. It is derived from the Tanzil Simple edition, while the Arabic above is the Uthmani edition; both are cleared, but they are not the same edition and their orthography differs.
The versesSource fact 3 passages, each with every cleared translation
3 passages, chosen for this question and signed as part of it. Each carries the reason it is here, and each renders in full: the Arabic, then every cleared translation of that verse under its translator's name.

O ye who believe! When ye go forth (to fight) in the way of Allah, be careful to discriminate, and say not unto one who offereth you peace: "Thou art not a believer," seeking the chance profits of this life (so that ye may despoil him). With Allah are plenteous spoils. Even thus (as he now is) were ye before; but Allah hath since then been gracious unto you. Therefore take care to discriminate. Allah is ever Informed of what ye do
O ye who believe! when ye are knocking about in the way of God be discerning, and do not say to him who offers you a salutation, 'Thou art no believer,' craving after the chances of this world's life, for with God are many spoils! So were ye aforetime, but God was gracious to you, be ye then discerning; verily, God of what ye do is well aware
O believers! when ye go forth to the fight for the cause of God, be discerning, and say not to every one who meeteth you with a greeting, "Thou art not a believer" in your greed after the chance good things of this present life! With God are abundant spoils. Such hath been your wont in times past; but god hath been gracious to you. Be discerning, then, for God well knoweth what ye do
O true believers, when ye are on a march in defence of the true religion, justly discern such as ye shall happen to meet, and say not unto him who saluteth you, thou art not a true believer; seeking the accidental goods of the present life; for with God is much spoil: Such have ye formerly been; but God hath been gracious unto you; therefore make a just discernment, for God is well acquainted with that which ye do

O besimtarë! Kur të dilni (për të luftuar) në rrugën e Allahut, shqyrtoni çdo gjë me kujdes e mos i thoni atij që ju përshëndet me selam: "Nuk je besimtar", duke kërkuar kështu pasurinë e kësaj bote, sepse tek Allahu ka begati të shumta. Ashtu ishit edhe ju më parë, por Allahu ju dha mirësi, andaj shqyrtoni çdo gjë me kujdes! Allahu e di mirë çfarë veproni.
হে মুমিনগণ! যখন তোমরা আল্লাহর রাস্তায় (জিহাদের জন্যে) বের হবে তখন যাচাই-বাছাই করে নিবে (কে তোমাদের বন্ধু, কে শত্রু)। আর যদি কেউ তোমাদের নিকট ইসলামকে প্রকাশ করে, পার্থিব জীবনের স্বার্থ হাসিলের আশায় তাকে বলবে না যে, ‘তুমি মু’মিন নও’।(৩৮) অথচ আল্লাহর কাছে রয়েছে প্রচুর গনীমত। তোমরাতো পূর্বে এর মতোই ছিলে।(৩৯) অতঃপর আল্লাহ তোমাদের প্রতি অনুগ্রহ করলেন। সুতরাং (কাউকে হত্যার আগে) তোমরা যাচাই-বাছাই করবে। নিশ্চয় তোমরা যা করো সে সম্পর্কে আল্লাহ সম্যক অবগত।

ჰეი, თქვენ, რომელთაც ირწმუნეთ! როდესაც ალლაჰის გზაზე გამოდიხართ, გაარჩიეთ (ისინი, ვისთანაც მიდიხართ და ვისაც ტოვებთ) და ნუ ეტყვით იმას, ვინც მშვიდობით მოგესალმებათ [ვისაც მორწმუნის ნიშნები აქვს და თქვენთან არ იბრძვის]: «შენ არ ხარ მორწმუნე» — (შეიძლება იგი მორწმუნე იყოს, რომელიც თავის რწმენას მალავს) — ამქვეყნიური ცხოვრების წარმავალი სიკეთეების მოპოვების სურვილით. რადგან ალლაჰთანაა უხვი ნადავლი. ასეთები იყავით თქვენც ადრე [თქვენი წარმართული ტომებისგან მალავდით თქვენს რწმენას], მაგრამ ალლაჰმა მოწყალება გაიღო თქვენზე. ამიტომ გაარჩიეთ (თქვენი მოქმედებები, რათა შეცდომით მორწმუნე არ მოკლათ). ჭეშმარიტად, ალლაჰმა უწყის ის, რასაც აკეთებთ.
O die ihr glaubt, wenn ihr auf dem Weg Allahs umherreist, dann vergewissert euch und sagt nicht zu einem, der euch den Friedensgruß (und Islam) entgegenbringt: „Du bist kein Gläubiger!“, wobei ihr nach den Glücksgütern des diesseitigen Lebens trachtet. Doch bei Allah ist Gutes in Fülle. So wart ihr zuvor (auch), aber dann hat Allah euch eine Wohltat erwiesen. Demnach vergewissert euch. Wahrlich, Allah ist kundig dessen, was ihr tut.
Ω, εσείς που πιστεύετε! Όταν πηγαίνετε να πολεμήσετε στο δρόμο του Αλλάχ, βεβαιωθείτε (ποιον πολεμάτε, για να μην σκοτώσετε έναν πιστό που κρύβει την πίστη του από τον άπιστο λαό του που σας πολεμάει). Και μην λέτε σ' αυτόν που σας δείχνει ότι είναι Μουσουλμάνος (και δεν σας πολεμάει μαζί με τον άπιστο λαό του): «Δεν είσαι πιστός (αλλά δείχνεις ότι είσαι πιστός για να προστατεύσεις τον εαυτό σου).», αναζητάτε μ' αυτό (να πάρετε τα χρήματά του ως λάφυρα, και) τα κέρδη της εγκόσμιας ζωής, ενώ ο Αλλάχ έχει άφθονα κέρδη. Ήσασταν πριν και εσείς έτσι (σαν αυτόν, κρύβατε την πίστη σας από τον λαό σας), αλλά ο Αλλάχ σας ευλόγησε (δίνοντάς σας δύναμη). Επομένως, βεβαιωθείτε, πράγματι, ο Αλλάχ για ό,τι κάνετε έχει απεριόριστη γνώση.
ऐ ईमान वालो! जब तुम अल्लाह के मार्ग में (जिहाद के लिए) निकलो, तो छानबीन[64] कर लिया करो। और जो तुम्हें सलाम[65] करे, उसे यह न कहो कि तुम ईमान वाले नहीं हो। तुम सांसारिक जीवन का सामान चाहते हो, तो अल्लाह के पास बहुत-सी ग़नीमतें हैं। पहले तुम भी ऐसे[66] ही थे, फिर अल्लाह ने तुमपर उपकार किया। अतः ठीक से छानबीन कर लिया करो। निःसंदेह अल्लाह तुम्हारे कर्मों से सूचित है।
O credenti, se andate in guerra per la causa di Allāh, siate chiari, e non dite a chi vi offre la pace: «Non sei credente!», desiderando il guadagno terreno, e da Allāh ci sono abbondanti beni. Così eravate una volta, e Allāh vi ha concesso molto della Sua grazia. Siate chiari: in verità Allāh di tutto ciò che fate è Conoscitore.
94. O jūs, kurie tikite! Kai jūs einate (kovoti) vardan Allaho, liudykite (tiesą) ir nesakykite niekam, kas sveikinasi su jumis (priimdami islamą): „Tu nesi tikintis.“, siekdami greitai gendančių šio žemiškojo gyvenimo daiktų. Daug daugiau naudos ir grobio yra pas Allahą. Vienodai, koks jis yra dabar, buvote jūs patys prieš tai, kol Allahas suteikė jums Savo Malones (t. y. atvedė jus į islamą), taigi būkite atsargūs diskriminuoti. Allahas yra Visada Gerai Žinantis apie tai, ką jūs darote.

О вы, которые уверовали! Когда вы выступаете по пути Аллаха, удостоверяйтесь и не говорите тому, кто приветствует вас миром: «Ты не являешься верующим», стремясь к преходящим благам мирской жизни; ведь у Аллаха — многочисленные трофеи. Такими были и вы прежде, но Аллах оказал вам милость; так удостоверяйтесь же. Воистину, Аллах всегда был [и пребудет] сведущим о том, что вы совершаете.
О ви који верујете, када кренете у бој на Аллаховом путу, све добро проверите и ономе ко вам назове поздрав мира немојте рећи: „Ти ниси верник!“ У жељи за пролазним добрима овосветског живота, јер код Аллаха су многа добра. Такви сте и ви били раније, па вам је Аллах даровао Своју милост. Зато, све добро проверите, а Аллах, заиста, добро зна оно што ви радите.

Troende! När ni rycker ut för Guds sak, var då noggranna i ert omdöme. Säg inte till den som [visar att han är muslim och] hälsar er med fredshälsningen: ”Du tror inte alls!”, i jakt på en världslig vinst. Hos Gud finns ju riklig vinning. Så var ni själva tidigare [muslimer i hemlighet], men Gud visade er sin nåd. Var därför noggranna. Gud är väl medveten om vad ni gör.

Zira Allah katında pek çok ganimetler vardır. Daha önceden siz de öyleydiniz de, Allah size ihsan etti. Öyleyse iyice araştırıp anlayın. Allah şüphesiz yaptıklarınızdan haberdardır.
اے ایمان والو! جب تم اللہ کی راه میں جا رہے ہو تو تحقیق کر لیا کرو اور جو تم سے سلام علیک کرے تو اسے یہ نہ کہہ دو کہ تو ایمان واﻻ نہیں[1] ۔ تم دنیاوی زندگی کے اسباب کی تلاش میں ہو تو اللہ تعالیٰ کے پاس بہت سی غنیمتیں ہیں[2]۔ پہلے تم بھی ایسے ہی تھے، پھر اللہ تعالیٰ نے تم پر احسان کیا لہٰذا تم ضرور تحقیق وتفتیش کر لیا کرو، بے شک اللہ تعالیٰ تمہارے اعمال سے باخبر ہے۔

Never should a believer kill another believer, unless by error. Anyone who kills a believer by error must set free a believing slave, and pay compensation to the victim's family, unless they remit it as charity. If the victim belonged to a people who are hostile to you, but is a believer, then the compensation is to free a believing slave. If he belonged to a people with whom you have a treaty, then compensation should be handed over to his family, and a believing slave set free. Anyone who lacks the means must fast for two consecutive months, by way of repentance to God. God is All-Knowing, Most Wise.
It is not for a believer to kill a believer unless (it be) by mistake. He who hath killed a believer by mistake must set free a believing slave, and pay the blood-money to the family of the slain, unless they remit it as a charity. If he (the victim) be of a people hostile unto you, and he is a believer, then (the penance is) to set free a believing slave. And if he cometh of a folk between whom and you there is a covenant, then the blood-money must be paid unto his folk and (also) a believing slave must be set free. And whoso hath not the wherewithal must fast two consecutive months. A penance from Allah. Allah is Knower, Wise
It is not for a believer to kill a believer save by mistake; and whosoever kills a believer by mistake then let him free a believing neck; and the blood-money must be paid to his people save what they shall remit as alms. But if he be from a tribe hostile to you and yet a believer, then let him free a believing neck. And if it be a tribe betwixt whom and you there is an alliance, then let the blood-money be paid to his friends, and let him free a believing neck; but he who cannot find the means, then let him fast for two consecutive months - a penance this from God, for God is knowing, wise
A believer killeth not a believer but by mischance: and whoso killeth a believer by mischance shall be bound to free a believer from slavery; and the blood-money shall be paid to the family of the slain, unless they convert it into alms. But if the slain believer be of a hostile people, then let him confer freedom on a slave who is a believer; and if he be of a people between whom and yourselves there is an alliance, then let the blood-money be paid to his family, and let him set free a slave who is a believer: and let him who hath not the means, fast two consecutive months. This is the penance enjoined by God; and God is Knowing, Wise
It is not lawful for a believer to kill a believer, unless it happen by mistake; and whoso killeth a believer by mistake, the penalty shall be the freeing of a believer from slavery, and a fine to be paid to the family of the deceased, unless they remit it as alms: And if the slain person be of a people at enmity with you, and be a true believer, the penalty shall be the freeing of a believer; but if he be of a people in confederacy with you, a fine to be paid to his family, and the freeing of a believer. And he who findeth not wherewith to do this, shall fast two months consecutively, as a penance enjoined from God; and God is knowing and wise

The translators word this verse differently
Whoever kills a believer deliberately, the penalty for him is Hell, where he will remain forever. And God will be angry with him, and will curse him, and will prepare for him a terrible punishment.
Whoso slayeth a believer of set purpose, his reward is hell for ever. Allah is wroth against him and He hath cursed him and prepared for him an awful doom
And whoso kills a believer purposely, his reward is hell, to dwell therein for aye; and God will be wrath with him, and curse him, and prepare for him a mighty woe
But whoever shall kill a believer of set purpose, his recompense shall be hell; for ever shall he abide in it; God shall be wrathful with him, and shall curse him, and shall get ready for him a great torment
But whoso killeth a believer designedly, his reward shall be hell; he shall remain therein for ever; and God shall be angry with him; and shall curse him, and shall prepare for him a great punishment

The translators word this verse differently
Not equal are the inactive among the believers-except the disabled-and the strivers in the cause of God with their possessions and their persons. God prefers the strivers with their possessions and their persons above the inactive, by a degree. But God has promised goodness to both. Yet God favors the strivers, over the inactive, with a great reward.
Those of the believers who sit still, other than those who have a (disabling) hurt, are not on an equality with those who strive in the way of Allah with their wealth and lives. Allah hath conferred on those who strive with their wealth and lives a rank above the sedentary. Unto each Allah hath promised good, but He hath bestowed on those who strive a great reward above the sedentary
Not alike are those of the believers who sit at home without harm, and those who are strenuous in God's way with their wealth and their persons. God hath preferred those who are strenuous with their wealth and their persons to those who sit still, by many degrees, and to each hath God promised good, but God hath preferred the strenuous for a mighty hire over those who sit still
Those believers who sit at home free from trouble, and those who do valiantly in the cause of God with their substance and their persons, shall not be treated alike. God hath assigned to those who contend earnestly with their persons and with their substance, a rank above those who sit at home. Goodly promises hath He made to all. But God hath assigned to the strenuous a rich recompense, above those who sit still at home
Those believers who sit still at home, not having any hurt, and those who employ their fortunes and their persons for the religion of God, shall not be held equal. God hath preferred those who employ their fortunes and their persons in that cause, to a degree of honour above those who sit at home: God hath indeed promised every one paradise, but God hath preferred those who fight for the faith before those who sit still

Rückt aus, (ob) leicht oder schwer, und müht euch mit eurem Besitz und eurer eigenen Person auf dem Weg Allahs ab. Dies ist besser für euch, wenn ihr (es) nur wisst.

Unless you mobilize, He will punish you most painfully, and will replace you with another people, and you will not harm Him at all. God has power over all things.
If ye go not forth He will afflict you with a painful doom, and will choose instead of you a folk other than you. Ye cannot harm Him at all. Allah is Able to do all things

If you do not help him, God has already helped him, when those who disbelieved expelled him, and he was the second of two in the cave. He said to his friend, "Do not worry, God is with us."

God is Mighty and Wise.
If ye help him not, still Allah helped him when those who disbelieve drove him forth, the second of two; when they two were in the cave, when he said unto his comrade: Grieve not. Lo!

It is for the poor; those who are restrained in the way of God, and unable to travel in the land. The unaware would think them rich, due to their dignity. You will recognize them by their features. They do not ask from people insistently. Whatever charity you give, God is aware of it.
Compare translations (4)
(Alms are) for the poor who are straitened for the cause of Allah, who cannot travel in the land (for trade). The unthinking man accounteth them wealthy because of their restraint. Thou shalt know them by their mark: They do not beg of men with importunity. And whatsoever good thing ye spend, lo! Allah knoweth it
unto the poor who are straitened in God's way, and cannot knock about in the earth. The ignorant think them to be rich because of their modesty; you will know them by their mark, they do not beg from men importunately; but what ye spend of good God knows
There are among you the poor, who being shut up to fighting for the cause of God, have it not in their power to strike out into the earth for riches. Those who know them not, think them rich because of their modesty. By this their token thou shalt know them - they ask not of men with importunity: and of whatever good thing ye shall give them in alms, of a truth God will take knowledge
unto the poor who are wholly employed in fighting for the religion of God, and cannot go to and fro in the earth; whom the ignorant man thinketh rich, because of their modesty: Thou shalt know them by this mark, they ask not men with importunity; and what good ye shall give in alms, verily God knoweth it

Αυτός που δεν γνωρίζει την κατάστασή τους, νομίζει ότι είναι πλούσιοι (δηλ. δεν έχουν ανάγκη ελεημοσύνης) λόγω της αποχής τους από το να ζητήσουν (ελεημοσύνη). Θα τους αναγνωρίσεις από τα σημάδια τους (στο σώμα και τα ρούχα τους που δείχνουν την ανάγκη τους), δεν ζητούν από τους ανθρώπους επίμονα. Και ό,τι καλό ξοδεύετε, πράγματι ο Αλλάχ το γνωρίζει καλά.
(यह दान) उन निर्धनों के लिए है, जो अल्लाह के मार्ग में रोके गए हैं, धरती में यात्रा नहीं कर सकते[182], अनजान उन्हें किसी के सामने हाथ फैलाने से बचने के कारण धनवान् समझता है, तुम उन्हें उनके लक्षणों से पहचान लोगे, वे लोगों के पीछे पड़कर नहीं माँगते। तथा तुम जो भी धन ख़र्च करोगे, तो निश्चय अल्लाह उसे भली-भाँति जानने वाला है।
Donate ai poveri che sono bloccati sul sentiero di Allāh, incapaci di muoversi in terra, che l’ignorante crede ricchi per la loro riservatezza; li riconoscerai dal loro aspetto: non mendicano con insistenza. E di ogni bene che donate, in verità Allāh di ciò è Sapiente.
273. (Labdara yra skirta) Fukara (vargingiesiems), kurie vardan Allaho yra apriboti (dėl keliavimo) ir negali judėti žemėje (dėl prekybos ar darbo). Tie, kurie jų nepažįsta, galvoja, kad jie – turtingi dėl jų kuklumo. Jūs galite atpažinti juos iš jų požymio – jie visiškai neprašinėja žmonių. [39] Ir visa, ką jūs išleisite teisingai, be abejonių, Allahas tai gerai žino.

[Ваши пожертвования] — для бедных, которые удержаны [нуждой] на пути Аллаха и не могут странствовать по земле. Незнающий [об их положении] считает их богатыми из-за их сдержанности. Ты узнаешь их по приметам — они не просят у людей настойчиво. И что бы вы ни израсходовали из добра — воистину, Аллах — знающий об этом.
То припада сиромасима који су изнемогли на Аллаховом путу, па не могу да путују по земљи; онај ко их не зна мисли да су имућни због њихове суздржаности. Познаћеш их по њиховом изгледу, јер они не досађују људима просећи. А за оно што од добара поделите, Аллах, заиста, добро зна.
Na wapewe mafakiri waliozuiliwa katika njia za Mwenyezi Mungu, wasioweza kusafiri katika nchi kutafuta riziki. Asiyewajua hali zao huwadhania kuwa ni matajiri kwa sababu ya kujizuia kwao. Utawatambua kwa alama zao; hawawang'ang'anilii watu kwa kuwaomba. Na chochote mnachotoa katika heri, basi hakika Mwenyezi Mungu anaijua.
[Ge] till de fattiga som för Guds skull hindrats från att röra sig fritt på jorden. Den som inte känner till [deras situation] tror att de har det gott ställt på grund av deras återhållsamhet [från att be om hjälp]. Du känner igen dem på deras kännetecken; de ber inte människor enträget. Gud har full vetskap om allt gott ni skänker.
(Sadakalar) Allah yolunda mahsur kalmış, kazanç için yeryüzünde dolaşamayan, çekingenliklerinden dolayı bilmeyenlerin onları zengin zannettikleri, senin de simalarından tanıdığın ısrarlı bir şekilde insanlardan istemeyen fakirler içindir. Hayır olarak ne harcarsanız, şüphesiz Allah onu hakkıyla bilir.
صدقات کے مستحق صرف وه غربا ہیں جو اللہ کی راه میں روک دیئے گئے، جو ملک میں چل پھر نہیں سکتے[1] نادان لوگ ان کی بے سوالی کی وجہ سے انہیں مالدار خیال کرتے ہیں، آپ ان کے چہرے دیکھ کر قیافہ سے انہیں پہچان لیں گے وه لوگوں سے چمٹ کر سوال نہیں کرتے[2]، تم جو کچھ مال خرچ کرو تو اللہ تعالیٰ اس کا جاننے واﻻ ہے۔

The translators word this verse differently
Their guidance is not your responsibility, but God guides whom He wills. Any charity you give is for your own good. Any charity you give shall be for the sake of God. Any charity you give will be repaid to you in full, and you will not be wronged.
The guiding of them is not thy duty (O Muhammad), but Allah guideth whom He will. And whatsoever good thing ye spend, it is for yourselves, when ye spend not save in search of Allah's Countenance; and whatsoever good thing ye spend, it will be repaid to you in full, and ye will not be wronged
Thou art not bound to guide them; but God guides whom He will; and whatever good ye expend it is for yourselves, and do not expend save craving for God's face. And what ye expend of good, it shall be repaid you, and ye shall not be wronged
Their guidance is not thine affair, O Muhammad; but God guideth whom he pleaseth. And the good that ye shall give in alms shall redound unto yourselves; and ye shall not give but as seeking the face of God; and whatever good thing ye shall have given in alms, shall be repaid you, and ye shall not be wronged
The direction of them belongeth not unto thee; but God directeth whom he pleaseth. The good that ye shall give in alms shall redound unto your selves; and ye shall not give unless out of desire of seeing the face of God. And what good thing ye shall give in alms, it shall be repaid you, and ye shall not be treated unjustly

The translators word this verse differently
Those who swallow usury will not rise, except as someone driven mad by Satan's touch. That is because they say, "Commerce is like usury." But God has permitted commerce, and has forbidden usury. Whoever, on receiving advice from his Lord, refrains, may keep his past earnings, and his case rests with God. But whoever resumes-these are the dwellers of the Fire, wherein they will abide forever.
Those who swallow usury cannot rise up save as he ariseth whom the devil hath prostrated by (his) touch. That is because they say: Trade is just like usury; whereas Allah permitteth trading and forbiddeth usury. He unto whom an admonition from his Lord cometh, and (he) refraineth (in obedience thereto), he shall keep (the profits of) that which is past, and his affair (henceforth) is with Allah. As for him who returneth (to usury) - Such are rightful owners of the Fire. They will abide therein
Those who devour usury shall not rise again, save as he riseth whom Satan hath paralysed with a touch; and that is because they say 'selling is only like usury,' but God has made selling lawful and usury unlawful; and he to whom the admonition from his Lord has come, if he desists, what has gone before is his: his matter is in God's hands. But whosoever returns (to usury) these are the fellows of the Fire, and they shall dwell therein for aye
They who swallow down usury, shall arise in the resurrection only as he ariseth whom Satan hath infected by his touch. This, for that they say, "Selling is only the like of usury:" and yet God hath allowed selling, and forbidden usury. He then who when this warning shall come to him from his Lord, abstaineth, shall have pardon for the past, and his lot shall be with God. But they who return to usury, shall be given over to the fire; therein shall they abide for ever
They who devour usury shall not arise from the dead, but as he ariseth whom Satan hath infected by a touch: This shall happen to them because they say. Truly selling is but as usury: And yet God hath permitted selling and forbidden usury. He therefore who when there cometh unto him an admonition from his Lord, abstaineth from usury for the future, shall have what is past forgiven him, and his affair belongeth unto God. But whoever returneth to usury, they shall be the companions of hell fire, they shall continue therein for ever
What this study rests on, and what it refusessigned with it2 of the 2 paragraphs signed with this study
The selection above and this account of it are part of what was signed. Where the renderings disagree it says so; where the question runs past what has cleared the rights audit it says that too.
The question asks what going out in God's way means in the Qur'an, and whether it is about preaching tours. The probe for going forth and going out returns 77 rows at 39 verses; those not carried here speak of leaving a place, of battle, or of the dead going forth, and none of a preaching tour.
The verses on fighting are not read here; this study reads only the words the question uses.
