اِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُونَ الَّذٖینَ اٰمَنُوا بِاللّٰهِ وَرَسُولِهٖ وَاِذَا كَانُوا مَعَهُ عَلٰٓى اَمْرٍ جَامِعٍ لَمْ یَذْهَبُوا حَتّٰى یَسْتَاْذِنُوهُؕ اِنَّ الَّذٖینَ یَسْتَاْذِنُونَكَ اُو𐻾لٰٓئِكَ الَّذٖینَ یُؤْمِنُونَ بِاللّٰهِ وَرَسُولِهٖۚ فَاِذَا اسْتَاْذَنُوكَ لِبَعْضِ شَاْنِهِمْ فَاْذَنْ لِمَنْ شِئْتَ مِنْهُمْ وَاسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُمُ اللّٰهَؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ غَفُورٌ رَحٖیمٌ

Translations

The believers are only those who believe in Allah and His Messenger and, when they are [meeting] with him for a matter of common interest, do not depart until they have asked his permission. Indeed, those who ask your permission, [O Muhammad] - those are the ones who believe in Allah and His Messenger. So when they ask your permission for something of their affairs, then give permission to whom you will among them and ask forgiveness for them of Allah. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful

Saheeh International

They only are the true believers who believe in Allah and His messenger and, when they are with him on some common errand, go not away until they have asked leave of him. Lo! those who ask leave of thee, those are they who believe in Allah and His messenger. So, if they ask thy leave for some affair of theirs, give leave to whom thou wilt of them, and ask for them forgiveness of Allah. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful
