Ayah 111 of 129

۞إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ ٱشۡتَرَىٰ مِنَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ أَنفُسَهُمۡ وَأَمۡوَٰلَهُم بِأَنَّ لَهُمُ ٱلۡجَنَّةَۚ يُقَٰتِلُونَ فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ فَيَقۡتُلُونَ وَيُقۡتَلُونَۖ وَعۡدًا عَلَيۡهِ حَقّٗا فِي ٱلتَّوۡرَىٰةِ وَٱلۡإِنجِيلِ وَٱلۡقُرۡءَانِۚ وَمَنۡ أَوۡفَىٰ بِعَهۡدِهِۦ مِنَ ٱللَّهِۚ فَٱسۡتَبۡشِرُواْ بِبَيۡعِكُمُ ٱلَّذِي بَايَعۡتُم بِهِۦۚ وَذَٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلۡفَوۡزُ ٱلۡعَظِيمُ,

Innal laahash taraa minal mu'mineena anfusahum wa amwaalahum bi anna lahumul jannah; yuqaatiloona fee sabeelil laahi fa yaqtuloona wa yuqtaloona wa'dan 'alaihi haqqan fit Tawraati wal Injeeli wal Qur'aaan; wa man awfaa bi'ahdihee minal laah; fastabshiroo bi bay'ikumul lazee baaya'tum bih; wa zaalika huwal fawzul 'azeem
111. Indeed, Allah has purchased [309] from the believers their lives and their wealth in exchange for Paradise [310]; they fight in the way of Allah, so they kill and are killed. It is a true promise upon Him in the Torah, the Gospel, and the Quran [311]. And who fulfills His promise better than Allah? So rejoice [312] in your transaction which you have made with Him. And that is the supreme triumph [313].

120.It was not proper for the inhabitants of Madina [336], and those around them [337], to remain sitting behind the Messenger of Allah, nor that they should consider their own lives more dear than his life. This is because whatever they face as thirst, distress, or hunger [340] in the way of Allah, or where they take a step in a place that enrages [341] the infidels, for all these things [342], a good deed is written [343] for them. Surely, Allah does not waste the reward of the doers of good [344].

Known as "The Immunity," Surah At-Tawbah is the 9th chapter of the Glorious Quran. It contains 129 ayat (verses) and was revealed in Medina after the Prophet (ﷺ) migrated there. This surah consists of two juz (parts). Verses 1 through 92 are in the 10th juz, and verses 93 to 129 are in the 11th juz.

This surah continues from the previous one, as it begins by calling an end to the numerous peace treaties broken by the pagans. The believers are encouraged to join the Prophet (ﷺ) in marching to Tabuk for battle during the summer of 9 A.H. / 631 C.E., and hypocrites—who make spurious excuses—are uncovered and refuted. Muslims are reminded of Allah's protection at the Battle of Uhud, when their defeat turned into a successful victory, as well as how He shielded His Messenger (ﷺ) during his journey to Medina. Throughout this surah, Allah's tolerance for repentance is continually emphasized, hence its title.
