Quote:
{48:4} It is He who sent down tranquility into the hearts of the believers that they would increase in faith along with their [present] faith. And to God belong the soldiers of the heavens and the earth, and ever is God Knowing and Wise.

Excellent translation.

Quote:
{48:5} [And] that He may admit the believing men and the believing women to gardens beneath which rivers flow to abide therein eternally and remove from them their misdeeds - and ever is that, in the sight of God, a great attainment -

I suggest,
{48:5} [And] that He may admit the believing men and the believing women to gardens flowing beneath which are rivers, staying eternally therein and expiate off of them their misdeeds - and ever is that, in the sight of God, a great win -

Quote:
{48:6} And [that] He may punish the hypocrite men and hypocrite women, and the polytheist men and polytheist women - those who assume about God an assumption of evil nature. Upon them is a misfortune of evil nature; and God has become angry with them and has cursed them and prepared for them Hell, and evil it is as a destination.

I suggest,
{48:6} And [that] He may torment the hypocrite men and hypocrite women, and the polytheist men and polytheist women - those assuming about God an assumption of ill. Upon them is the round of ill; and God has ired on them, cursed them and prepared for them Gehenna (Hell); such an ill destination.

Quote:
{48:7} And to God belong the soldiers of the heavens and the earth. And ever is God Exalted in Might and Wise.

I suggest,
{48:7} And to God belong the soldiers of the heavens and the earth. And ever is God Invincible and Wise.
