Grammar Rules

Conjunction وَ (and)
وَإِن (And if) starts with وَ, the most common Arabic word — it means "and".
We add "and" to connect this to what came before.
Conditional (if/when)
وَإِن (And if) introduces a condition — "if this happens, then that happens".
We translate it as "if" or "when".

Sahih International

And if someone is in hardship, then [let there be] postponement until [a time of] ease. But if you give [from your right as] charity, then it is better for you, if you only knew.
