بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

MERCIFUL, the ESPECIALLY MERCIFUL]
إِذَا جَاءَ
نَصْرُ اللَّهِ وَالْفَتْحُ
Pronunciation
Itha

Translation
When
the victory of Allah has come and the conquest,
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
When
the help of God, for His Prophet (s), against his enemies, comes together with
victory, the victory over Mecca,
وَرَأَيْتَ
النَّاسَ يَدْخُلُونَ فِي دِينِ اللَّهِ أَفْوَاجًا
Pronunciation
Waraayta
annasa yadkhuloonafee deeni Allahi afwaja
Translation
And
you see the people entering into the religion of Allah in multitudes,
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
and
you see people entering God’s religion, that is to say, Islam, in throngs, in
large droves, after they had been entering one by one — this was after the
conquest of Mecca, when the Arabs from all corners of the land came to him
willingly [in obedience to his command] —
فَسَبِّحْ
بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ وَاسْتَغْفِرْهُ ۚ إِنَّهُ كَانَ
تَوَّابًا
Pronunciation
Fasabbih
bihamdi rabbika wastaghfirhuinnahu kana tawwaba
Translation
Then
exalt [Him] with praise of your Lord and ask forgiveness of Him. Indeed, He is
ever Accepting of repentance.
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
then
glorify with praise of your Lord, that is, continuously praising Him, and seek
forgiveness from Him; for verily He is ever ready to relent. The Prophet (s),
after this sūra had been revealed, would frequently repeat the words
subhāna’Llāhi wa bi-hamdihi, ‘Glory and praise be to God’, and astaghfiru’Llāha
wa-atūbu ilayhi, ‘I seek forgiveness from God and I repent to Him’; with [the
revelation of] this [final sūra] he realised that his end was near. The victory
over Mecca was in Ramadān of year 8; the Prophet (s) passed away in Rabī‘ I of
the year 10.
