Quran Chapter 8: Surah Al-Anfal (The Spoils of War) English Translation

Deskripsi

(8:1) They ask you concerning the spoils of war? Tell them: 'The spoils of war belong to Allah and the Messenger. So fear Allah, and set things right between you, and obey Allah and His Messenger if you are true believers.
