8.61 . And if they incline to peace , incline thou also to it , and trust in Allah . Lo! He is the Hearer , the Knower .

8.62 . And if they would deceive thee , then lo! Allah is sufficient for thee . He it is Who supporteth thee with His help and with the believers ,

8.63 . And ( as for the believers ) hath attuned their hearts . If thou hadst spent all that is in the earth thou couldst not have attuned their hearts , but Allah hath attuned them . Lo! He is Mighty , Wise .

8.64 . O Prophet! Allah is sufficient for thee and those who follow thee of the believers .

8.65 . O Prophet! Exhort the believers to fight . If there be of you twenty steadfast they shall overcome two hundred , and if there be of you a hundred steadfast they shall overcome a thousand of those who disbelieve , because they ( the disbelievers ) are a folk without intelligence .

8.66 . Now . hath Allah lightened your burden , for He knoweth that there is weakness in you . So if there be of you a steadfast hundred they shall overcome two hundred , and if there be of you a thousand ( steadfast ) they shall overcome two thousand by permission of Allah . Allah is with the steadfast .

8.67 . It is not for any Prophet to have captives until he hath made slaughter in the land . Ye desire the lure of this world and Allah desireth ( for you ) the Hereafter , and Allah is Mighty , Wise .

8.68 . Had it not been for an ordinance of Allah which had gone before , an awful doom had come upon you on account of what ye took .

8.69 . Now enjoy what ye have won , as lawful and good , and keep your duty to Allah . Lo! Allah is Forgiving , Merciful .

8.70 . O Prophet , Say unto those captives who are in your hands : If Allah knoweth any good in your hearts He will give you better than that which hath been taken from you , and will forgive you . Lo! Allah is Forgiving , Merciful .

8.71 . And if they would betray thee , they betrayed Allah before , and He gave ( thee ) power over them . Allah is knower , Wise .

8.72 . Lo! those who believed and left their homes and strove with their wealth and their lives for the cause of Allah , and those who took them in and helped them ; these are protecting friends one of another . And those who believed but did not leave their homes , ye have no duty to protect them till they leave their homes ; but if they seek help from you in the matter of religion then it is your duty to help ( them ) except against a folk between whom and you there is a treaty . Allah is Seer of what ye do .

8.73 . And those who disbelieve are protectors one of another If ye do not so , there will be confusion in the land , and great corruption .

8.74 . Those who believed and left their homes and strove for the cause of Allah , and those who took them in and helped them these are the believers in truth . For them is pardon , and a bountiful provision .

8.75 . And those who afterwards believed and left their homes and strove along with you , they are of you ; and those who are akin are nearer one to another in the ordinance of Allah . Lo! Allah is Knower of all things .
