Blurb:

This sūra warns believers about secret alliances with the enemy. It also gives instructions on how to treat women who leave their husbands to join the believers, as well as what to do about the wives of believers who run off.



Erratum (Posted 12/02/2015 and to be corrected in next reprint):





Page 381, sura 60, verse 5 should read:





Our Lord, do not make us an (object of) persecution for those who disbelieve, but forgive us our Lord. Surely—You are the Mighty, the Wise
