Footnotes
1 - The Prophet (ﷺ) made this message known to all people, not concealing any of it from anyone or preferring any group over another.
But if they turn away, from this, say: 'I have proclaimed to you, I have notified you of [my declaration of] war [on you], all alike ('alaa ﷺaa' is a circumstantial qualifier referring to both the subject of the verb and the object) that is to say, you are [all] equal in having knowledge of this: I shall not proceed independently without [having first informed] you, in order for you to make preparations, although I do not know whether near or far is that which you have been promised', with respect to chastisement, or to the [Day of] Resurrection that comprises this [chastisement]; only God knows it.
