e (anything) for themselves in preference to him; this
is because there afflicts them not thirst or fatigue or hunger in
Allah's way, nor do they tread a path which enrages the unbelievers,
nor do they attain from the enemy what they attain, but a good work is
written down to them on account of it; surely Allah does not waste the
reward of the doers of good;

Y: Nor could they spend anything (for the cause) - small or great- nor
cut across a valley, but the deed is inscribed to their credit: that
Allah may requite their deed with the best (possible reward).

P: Nor spend they any spending, small or great, nor do they cross a
valley, but it is recorded for them, that Allah may repay them the best
of what they used to do.

S: Nor do they spend anything that may be spent, small or great, nor do
they traverse a valley, but it is written down to their credit, that
Allah may reward them with the best of what they have done.

that thus they (may learn) to guard themselves (against evil).

Y: O ye who believe! fight the unbelievers who gird you about, and let
them find firmness in you: and know that Allah is with those who fear
Him.

P: O ye who believe! Fight those of the disbelievers who are near to

those who keep their duty (unto Him).

S: O you who believe! fight those of the unbelievers who are near to you
and let them find in you hardness; and know that Allah is with those
