Banu An-Nadir

You [believers] are more fearful within their breasts than Allāh. That is because they are a people who do not understand.

It is He who expelled the ones who disbelieved among the People of the Scripture¹ from their homes at the first gathering.² You did not think they would leave, and they thought that their fortresses would protect them from Allāh; but [the decree of] Allāh came upon them from where they had not expected, and He cast terror into their hearts [so] they destroyed their houses by their [own] hands and the hands of the believers. So take warning, O people of vision.

And if not that Allāh had decreed for them evacuation, He would have punished them in [this] world, and for them in the Hereafter is the punishment of the Fire.

That is because they opposed Allāh and His Messenger. And whoever opposes Allāh - then indeed, Allāh is severe in penalty.

Whatever you have cut down of [their] palm trees or left standing on their trunks - it was by permission of Allāh and so He would disgrace the defiantly disobedient.

And what Allāh restored [of property] to His Messenger from them - you did not spur for it [in an expedition] any horses or camels,¹ but Allāh gives His messengers power over whom He wills, and Allāh is over all things competent.

And [also for] those who were settled in the Home [i.e.,al-Madīnah] and [adopted] the faith before them.¹ They love those who emigrated to them and find not any want in their breasts of what they [i.e., the emigrants] were given but give [them] preference over themselves, even though they are in privation. And whoever is protected from the stinginess of his soul - it is those who will be the successful.
