S:  And know that among you is Allah’s Messenger; should he obey you in many a matter, you would surely fall into distress, but Allah has endeared the faith to you and has made it seemly in your hearts, and He has made hateful to you unbelief and transgression and disobedience; these it is that are the followers of a right way.

049.008 Y:  A Grace and Favour from Allah; and Allah is full of Knowledge and Wisdom.

P:  (It is) a bounty and a grace from Allah; and Allah is Knower, Wise.

S:  By grace from Allah and as a favor; and Allah is Knowing, Wise.

049.009 Y:  If two parties among the Believers fall into a quarrel, make ye peace between them:  but if one of them transgresses beyond bounds against the other, then fight ye (all) against the one that transgresses until it complies with the command of Allah; but if it complies, then make peace between them with justice, and be fair:  for Allah loves those who are fair (and just).

P:  And if two parties of believers fall to fighting, then make peace between them.  And if one party of them doeth wrong to the other, fight ye that which doeth wrong till it return unto the ordinance of Allah; then, if it return, make peace between them justly, and act equitably.  Lo!  Allah loveth the equitable.

S:  And if two parties of the believers quarrel, make peace between them; but if one of them acts wrongfully towards the other, fight that which acts wrongfully until it returns to Allah’s command; then if it returns, make peace between them with justice and act equitably; surely Allah loves those who act equitably.

049.010 Y:  The Believers are but a single Brotherhood:  So make peace and reconciliation between your two (contending) brothers; and fear Allah, that ye may receive Mercy.

P:  The believers are naught else than brothers.  Therefore make peace between your brethren and observe your duty to Allah that haply ye may obtain mercy.

S:  The believers are but brethren, therefore make peace between your brethren and be careful of (your duty to) Allah that mercy may be had on you.

049.011 Y:  O ye who believe!  Let not some men among you laugh at others:  It may be that the (latter) are better than the (former):  Nor let some women laugh at others:  It may be that the (latter) are better than the (former):  Nor defame nor be sarcastic to each other, nor call each other by (offensive) nicknames:  Ill-seeming is a name connoting wickedness, (to be used of one) after he has believed:  And those who do not desist are (indeed) doing wrong.

P:  O ye who believe!  Let not a folk deride a folk who may be better than they (are), not let women (deride) women who may be better than they are; neither defame one another, nor insult one another by nicknames.  Bad is the name of lewdness after faith.  And whoso turneth not in repentance, such are evil-doers.

S:  O you who believe! let not (one) people laugh at (another) people perchance they may be better than they, nor let women (laugh) at (other) women, perchance they may be better than they; and do not find fault with your own people nor call one another by nicknames; evil is a bad name after faith, and whoever does not turn, these it is that are the unjust.
