رَحۡمَةٖ
مِّنَ
ٱللَّهِ
لِنتَ
لَهُمۡۖ
وَلَوۡ
كُنتَ

لَٱنفَضُّواْ
مِنۡ
حَوۡلِكَۖ
فَٱعۡفُ
عَنۡهُمۡ
وَٱسۡتَغۡفِرۡ
لَهُمۡ
وَشَاوِرۡهُمۡ
فِي
ٱلۡأَمۡرِۖ
فَإِذَا
عَزَمۡتَ
فَتَوَكَّلۡ
عَلَى
ٱللَّهِۚ
إِنَّ
ٱللَّهَ
يُحِبُّ
ٱلۡمُتَوَكِّلِينَ
١٥٩
It is out of Allah’s mercy that you ˹O Prophet˺ have been lenient with them. Had you been cruel or hard-hearted, they would have certainly abandoned you. So pardon them, ask Allah’s forgiveness for them, and consult with them in ˹conducting˺ matters. Once you make a decision, put your trust in Allah. Surely Allah loves those who trust in Him.
