Secret

But do they not know that Allāh knows what they conceal and what they declare?

No good is there in much of their private conversation, except for those who enjoin charity or that which is right or conciliation between people. And whoever does that seeking means to the approval of Allāh - then We are going to give him a great reward.

So you see those in whose hearts is disease [i.e., hypocrisy] hastening into [association with] them, saying, "We are afraid a misfortune may strike us." But perhaps Allāh will bring conquest or a decision from Him, and they will become, over what they have been concealing within themselves, regretful.

And He is Allāh, [the only deity] in the heavens and the earth. He knows your secret and what you make public, and He knows that which you earn.

Did they not know that Allāh knows their secrets and their private conversations and that Allāh is the Knower of the unseen?

Unquestionably, they [i.e., the disbelievers] turn away their breasts to hide themselves from him. Unquestionably, [even] when they cover themselves in their clothing, He [i.e., Allāh] knows what they conceal and what they declare. Indeed, He is Knowing of that within the breasts.

It is the same [to Him] concerning you whether one conceals [his] speech or publicizes it and whether one is hidden by night or conspicuous [among others] by day.

And Allāh knows what you conceal and what you declare.

Assuredly, Allāh knows what they conceal and what they declare. Indeed, He does not like the arrogant.

And if you speak aloud - then indeed, He knows the secret and what is [even] more hidden.

Say, [O Muḥammad], "It has been revealed by He who knows [every] secret within the heavens and the earth. Indeed, He is ever Forgiving and Merciful."

So let not their speech grieve you. Indeed, We know what they conceal and what they declare.

Or do they think that We hear not their secrets and their private conversations? Yes, [We do], and Our messengers [i.e., angels] are with them recording.

That is because they said to those who disliked what Allāh sent down,¹ "We will obey you in part of the matter." And Allāh knows what they conceal.

He knows what is within the heavens and earth and knows what you conceal and what you declare. And Allāh is Knowing of that within the breasts.

And conceal your speech or publicize it; indeed, He is Knowing of that within the breasts.

The Day when secrets will be put on trial,¹
