بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمْنِ الرَّحِيْمِ
Surah At-Tawbah (Al-Bara'at) has 129 verses and was revealed in Madinah. In Shi'a traditions, keeping this surah over one's head (like in a cap or Amama) is a safety from thieves and destruction of property by fire. Also, keeping this surah in one's possession ensures safety from the evil designs of enemies.
بَرَآءَةٌ مِنَ اللهِ وَرَسُوْلِهِ إِلَى الَّذِيْنَ عَاهَدْتُمْ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِيْنَ
A declaration of immunity from Allah and His Messenger to those of the polytheists with whom you made a treaty.
فَسِيحُوا فِي الْأَرْضِ أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّكُمْ غَيْرُ مُعْجِزِي اللَّهِ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ مُخْزِي الْكَافِرِينَ
So travel freely in the land for four months, and know that you cannot escape Allah and that Allah will disgrace the disbelievers.
لَقَدْ جَاءَكُمْ رَسُولٌ مِنْ أَنْفُسِكُمْ عَزِيزٌ عَلَيْهِ مَا عَنِتُّمْ حَرِصٌ عَلَيْكُمْ بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ رَءُوفٌ رَحِيمٌ
There has certainly come to you a Messenger from among yourselves. Grievous to him is what you suffer; he is concerned over you and to the believers is kind and merciful.
فَإِنْ تَوَلَّوْا فَقُلْ حَسْبِيَ اللَّهُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَهُوَ رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ
But if they turn away, say: Allah is sufficient for me. There is no god except Him. Upon Him I have relied, and He is the Lord of the Great Throne.
