ذَٰلِكَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبُ لَا رَيۡبَ ۛ فِيهِ ۛ هُدࣰى لِّلۡمُتَّقِينَ﴿٢﴾
Thalika alkitabu la rayba feehi hudan lilmuttaqeena
This is the Book about which there is no doubt, a guidance for those conscious of Allāh -
ٱلَّذِينَ يُؤۡمِنُونَ بِٱلۡغَيۡبِ وَ يُقِيمُونَ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَ مِمَّا رَزَقۡنَٰهُمۡ يُنفِقُونَ﴿٣﴾
Allatheena yuminoona bialghaybi wayuqeemoona alssalata wamimma razaqnahum yunfiqoona
Who believe in the unseen, establish prayer, and spend out of what We have provided for them,
وَ ٱلَّذِينَ يُؤۡمِنُونَ بِمَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيۡكَ وَ مَآ أُنزِلَ مِن قَبۡلِكَ وَ بِٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ هُمۡ يُوقِنُونَ﴿٤﴾
Waallatheena yuminoona bima onzila ilayka wama onzila min qablika wabialakhirati hum yooqinoona
And who believe in what has been revealed to you, [O Muḥammad], and what was revealed before you, and of the Hereafter they are certain [in faith].
أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ عَلَىٰ هُدࣰى مِّن رَّبِّهِمۡ ۖ وَ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلۡمُفۡلِحُونَ﴿٥﴾
Olaika ʿala hudan min rabbihim waolaika humu almuflihoona
Those are upon [right] guidance from their Lord, and it is those who are the successful.
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ سَوَآءٌ عَلَيۡهِمۡ ءَأَنذَرۡتَهُمۡ أَمۡ لَمۡ تُنذِرۡهُمۡ لَا يُؤۡمِنُونَ﴿٦﴾
Inna allatheena kafaroo sawaon ʿalayhim aanthartahum am lam tunthirhum la yuminoona
Indeed, those who disbelieve - it is all the same for them whether you warn them or do not warn them - they will not believe.
خَتَمَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِمۡ وَ عَلَىٰ سَمۡعِهِمۡ ۖ وَ عَلَىٰٓ أَبۡصَٰرِهِمۡ غِشَٰوَةࣱ ۖ وَ لَهُمۡ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمࣱ﴿٧﴾
Khatama Allahu ʿala quloobihim waʿala samʿihim waʿala absarihim ghishawatun walahum ʿathabun ʿatheemun
Allāh has set a seal upon their hearts and upon their hearing, and over their vision is a veil. And for them is a great punishment.
وَ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن يَقُولُ ءَامَنَّا بِٱللَّهِ وَ بِٱلۡيَوۡمِ ٱلۡأٓخِرِ وَ مَا هُم بِمُؤۡمِنِينَ﴿٨﴾
Wamina alnnasi man yaqoolu amanna biAllahi wabialyawmi alakhiri wama hum bimumineena
And of the people are some who say, "We believe in Allāh and the Last Day," but they are not believers.
يُخَٰدِعُونَ ٱللَّهَ وَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَ مَا يَخۡدَعُونَ إِلَّآ أَنفُسَهُمۡ وَ مَا يَشۡعُرُونَ﴿٩﴾
Yukhadiʿoona Allaha waallatheena amanoo wama yakhdaʿoona illa anfusahum wama yashʿuroona
They [think to] deceive Allāh and those who believe, but they deceive not except themselves and perceive [it] not.
فِي قُلُوبِهِم مَّرَضࣱ فَزَادَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ مَرَضࣰا ۖ وَ لَهُمۡ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمُۢ بِمَا كَانُواْ يَكۡذِبُونَ﴿١٠﴾
Fee quloobihim maradun fazadahumu Allahu maradan walahum ʿathabun aleemun bima kanoo yakthiboona
In their hearts is disease, so Allāh has increased their disease; and for them is a painful punishment because they [habitually] used to lie.
وَ إِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمۡ لَا تُفۡسِدُواْ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّمَا نَحۡنُ مُصۡلِحُونَ﴿١١﴾
Waitha qeela lahum la tufsidoo fee alardi qaloo innama nahnu muslihoona
And when it is said to them, "Do not cause corruption on the earth," they say, "We are but reformers."
أَلَآ إِنَّهُمۡ هُمُ ٱلۡمُفۡسِدُونَ وَ لَٰكِن لَّا يَشۡعُرُونَ﴿١٢﴾
Ala innahum humu almufsidoona walakin la yashʿuroona
Unquestionably, it is they who are the corrupters, but they perceive [it] not.
وَ إِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمۡ ءَامِنُواْ كَمَآ ءَامَنَ ٱلنَّاسُ قَالُوٓاْ أَنُؤۡمِنُ كَمَآ ءَامَنَ ٱلسُّفَهَآءُ ۗ أَلَآ إِنَّهُمۡ هُمُ ٱلسُّفَهَآءُ وَ لَٰكِن لَّا يَعۡلَمُونَ﴿١٣﴾
Waitha qeela lahum aminoo kama amana alnnasu qaloo anuminu kama amana alssufahao ala innahum humu alssufahao walakin la yaʿlamoona
And when it is said to them, "Believe as the people have believed," they say, "Should we believe as the foolish have believed?" Unquestionably, it is they who are the foolish, but they know [it] not.
وَ إِذَا لَقُواْ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ قَالُوٓاْ ءَامَنَّا وَ إِذَا خَلَوۡاْ إِلَىٰ شَيَٰطِينِهِمۡ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّا مَعَكُمۡ إِنَّمَا نَحۡنُ مُسۡتَهۡزِءُونَ﴿١٤﴾
Waitha laqoo allatheena amanoo qaloo amanna waitha khalaw ila shayateenihim qaloo inna maʿakum innama nahnu mustahzioona
And when they meet those who believe, they say, "We believe"; but when they are alone with their evil ones, they say, "Indeed, we are with you; we were only mockers."
ٱللَّهُ يَسۡتَهۡزِئُ بِهِمۡ وَ يَمُدُّهُمۡ فِي طُغۡيَٰنِهِمۡ يَعۡمَهُونَ﴿١٥﴾
Allahu yastahzio bihim wayamudduhum fee tughyanihim yaʿmahoona
[But] Allāh mocks them and prolongs them in their transgression [while] they wander blindly.
أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱشۡتَرَوُاْ ٱلضَّلَٰلَةَ بِٱلۡهُدَىٰ فَمَا رَبِحَت تِّجَٰرَتُهُمۡ وَ مَا كَانُواْ مُهۡتَدِينَ﴿١٦﴾
Olaika allatheena ishtarawoo alddalalata bialhuda fama rabihat tijaratuhum wama kanoo muhtadeena
Those are the ones who have purchased error [in exchange] for guidance, so their transaction has brought no profit, nor were they guided.
مَثَلُهُمۡ كَمَثَلِ ٱلَّذِي ٱسۡتَوۡقَدَ نَارࣰا فَلَمَّآ أَضَآءَتۡ مَا حَوۡلَهُۥ ذَهَبَ ٱللَّهُ بِنُورِهِمۡ وَ تَرَكَهُمۡ فِي ظُلُمَٰتࣲ لَّا يُبۡصِرُونَ﴿١٧﴾
Mathaluhum kamathali allathee istawqada naran falamma adaat ma hawlahu thahaba Allahu binoorihim watarakahum fee thulumatin la yubsiroona
Their example is that of one who kindled a fire, but when it illuminated what was around him, Allāh took away their light and left them in darkness [so] they could not see.
صُمُّۢ بُكۡمٌ عُمۡيࣱ فَهُمۡ لَا يَرۡجِعُونَ﴿١٨﴾
Summun bukmun ʿumyun fahum la yarjiʿoona
Deaf, dumb and blind - so they will not return [to the right path].
أَوۡ كَصَيِّبࣲ مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ فِيهِ ظُلُمَٰتࣱ وَ رَعۡدࣱ وَ بَرۡقࣱ يَجۡعَلُونَ أَصَٰبِعَهُمۡ فِيٓ ءَاذَانِهِم مِّنَ ٱلصَّوَٰعِقِ حَذَرَ ٱلۡمَوۡتِ ۚ وَ ٱللَّهُ مُحِيطُۢ بِٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ﴿١٩﴾
Aw kasayyibin mina alssamai feehi thulumatun waraʿdun wabarqun yajʿaloona asabiʿahum fee athanihim mina alssawaʿiqi hathara almawti waAllahu muheetun bialkafireena
Or [it is] like a rainstorm from the sky within which is darkness, thunder and lightning. They put their fingers in their ears against the thunderclaps in dread of death. But Allāh is encompassing of the disbelievers.
يَكَادُ ٱلۡبَرۡقُ يَخۡطَفُ أَبۡصَٰرَهُمۡ ۖ كُلَّمَآ أَضَآءَ لَهُم مَّشَوۡاْ فِيهِ وَ إِذَآ أَظۡلَمَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ قَامُواْ ۚ وَ لَوۡ شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ لَذَهَبَ بِسَمۡعِهِمۡ وَ أَبۡصَٰرِهِمۡ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيۡءࣲ قَدِيرࣱ﴿٢٠﴾
Yakadu albarqu yakhtafu absarahum kullama adaa lahum mashaw feehi waitha athlama ʿalayhim qamoo walaw shaa Allahu lathahaba bisamʿihim waabsarihim inna Allaha ʿala kulli shayin qadeerun
The lightning almost snatches away their sight. Every time it lights [the way] for them, they walk therein; but when darkness comes over them, they stand [still]. And if Allāh had willed, He could have taken away their hearing and their sight. Indeed, Allāh is over all things competent.
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاسُ ٱعۡبُدُواْ رَبَّكُمُ ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَكُمۡ وَ ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِكُمۡ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَتَّقُونَ﴿٢١﴾
Ya ayyuha alnnasu oʿbudoo rabbakumu allathee khalaqakum waallatheena min qablikum laʿallakum tattaqoona
O mankind, worship your Lord, who created you and those before you, that you may become righteous -
ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلۡأَرۡضَ فِرَٰشࣰا وَ ٱلسَّمَآءَ بِنَآءࣰ وَ أَنزَلَ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءࣰ فَأَخۡرَجَ بِهِۦ مِنَ ٱلثَّمَرَٰتِ رِزۡقࣰا لَّكُمۡ ۖ فَلَا تَجۡعَلُواْ لِلَّهِ أَندَادࣰا وَ أَنتُمۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ﴿٢٢﴾
Allathee jaʿala lakumu alarda firashan waalssamaa binaan waanzala mina alssamai maan faakhraja bihi mina alththamarati rizqan lakum fala tajʿaloo lillahi andadan waantum taʿlamoona
[He] who made for you the earth a bed [spread out] and the sky a ceiling and sent down from the sky, rain and brought forth thereby fruits as provision for you. So do not attribute to Allāh equals while you know [that there is nothing similar to Him].
وَ إِن كُنتُمۡ فِي رَيۡبࣲ مِّمَّا نَزَّلۡنَا عَلَىٰ عَبۡدِنَا فَأۡتُواْ بِسُورَةࣲ مِّن مِّثۡلِهِۦ وَ ٱدۡعُواْ شُهَدَآءَكُم مِّن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ إِن كُنتُمۡ صَٰدِقِينَ﴿٢٣﴾
Wain kuntum fee raybin mimma nazzalna ʿala ʿabdina fatoo bisooratin min mithlihi waodʿoo shuhadaakum min dooni Allahi in kuntum sadiqeena
And if you are in doubt about what We have sent down [i.e., the Qur’ān] upon Our Servant [i.e., Prophet Muḥammad (ﷺ)], then produce a sūrah the like thereof and call upon your witnesses [i.e., supporters] other than Allāh, if you should be truthful.
فَإِن لَّمۡ تَفۡعَلُواْ وَ لَن تَفۡعَلُواْ فَٱتَّقُواْ ٱلنَّارَ ٱلَّتِي وَقُودُهَا ٱلنَّاسُ وَ ٱلۡحِجَارَةُ ۖ أُعِدَّتۡ لِلۡكَٰفِرِينَ﴿٢٤﴾
Fain lam tafʿaloo walan tafʿaloo faittaqoo alnnara allatee waqooduha alnnasu waalhijaratu oʿiddat lilkafireena
But if you do not - and you will never be able to - then fear the Fire, whose fuel is people and stones, prepared for the disbelievers.
وَ بَشِّرِ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَ عَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ أَنَّ لَهُمۡ جَنَّٰتࣲ تَجۡرِي مِن تَحۡتِهَا ٱلۡأَنۡهَٰرُ ۖ كُلَّمَا رُزِقُواْ مِنۡهَا مِن ثَمَرَةࣲ رِّزۡقࣰا قَالُواْ هَٰذَا ٱلَّذِي رُزِقۡنَا مِن قَبۡلُ ۖ وَ أُتُواْ بِهِۦ مُتَشَٰبِهࣰا ۖ وَ لَهُمۡ فِيهَآ أَزۡوَٰجࣱ مُّطَهَّرَةࣱ ۖ وَ هُمۡ فِيهَا خَٰلِدُونَ﴿٢٥﴾
Wabashshiri allatheena amanoo waʿamiloo alssalihati anna lahum jannatin tajree min tahtiha alanharu kullama ruziqoo minha min thamaratin rizqan qaloo hatha allathee ruziqna min qablu waotoo bihi mutashabihan walahum feeha azwajun mutahharatun wahum feeha khalidoona
And give good tidings to those who believe and do righteous deeds that they will have gardens [in Paradise] beneath which rivers flow. Whenever they are provided with a provision of fruit therefrom, they will say, "This is what we were provided with before." And it is given to them in likeness. And they will have therein purified spouses, and they will abide therein eternally.
إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يَسۡتَحۡيِۦٓ أَن يَضۡرِبَ مَثَلࣰا مَّا بَعُوضَةࣰ فَمَا فَوۡقَهَا ۚ فَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ فَيَعۡلَمُونَ أَنَّهُ ٱلۡحَقُّ مِن رَّبِّهِمۡ ۖ وَ أَمَّا ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ فَيَقُولُونَ مَاذَآ أَرَادَ ٱللَّهُ بِهَٰذَا مَثَلࣰا ۘ يُضِلُّ بِهِۦ كَثِيرࣰا وَ يَهۡدِي بِهِۦ كَثِيرࣰا ۚ وَ مَا يُضِلُّ بِهِۦٓ إِلَّا ٱلۡفَٰسِقِينَ﴿٢٦﴾
Inna Allaha la yastahyee an yadriba mathalan ma baʿoodatan fama fawqaha faamma allatheena amanoo fayaʿlamoona annahu alhaqqu min rabbihim waamma allatheena kafaroo fayaqooloona matha arada Allahu bihatha mathalan yudillu bihi katheeran wayahdee bihi katheeran wama yudillu bihi illa alfasiqeena
Indeed, Allāh is not timid to present an example - that of a mosquito or what is smaller than it. And those who have believed know that it is the truth from their Lord. But as for those who disbelieve, they say, "What did Allāh intend by this as an example?" He misleads many thereby and guides many thereby. And He misleads not except the defiantly disobedient,
ٱلَّذِينَ يَنقُضُونَ عَهۡدَ ٱللَّهِ مِنۢ بَعۡدِ مِيثَٰقِهِۦ وَ يَقۡطَعُونَ مَآ أَمَرَ ٱللَّهُ بِهِۦٓ أَن يُوصَلَ وَ يُفۡسِدُونَ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ ۚ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلۡخَٰسِرُونَ﴿٢٧﴾
Allatheena yanqudoona ʿahda Allahi min baʿdi meethaqihi wayaqtaʿoona ma amara Allahu bihi an yoosala wayufsidoona fee alardi olaika humu alkhasiroona
Who break the covenant of Allāh after contracting it and sever that which Allāh has ordered to be joined and cause corruption on earth. It is those who are the losers.
كَيۡفَ تَكۡفُرُونَ بِٱللَّهِ وَ كُنتُمۡ أَمۡوَٰتࣰا فَأَحۡيَٰكُمۡ ۖ ثُمَّ يُمِيتُكُمۡ ثُمَّ يُحۡيِيكُمۡ ثُمَّ إِلَيۡهِ تُرۡجَعُونَ﴿٢٨﴾
Kayfa takfuroona biAllahi wakuntum amwatan faahyakum thumma yumeetukum thumma yuhyeekum thumma ilayhi turjaʿoona
How can you disbelieve in Allāh when you were lifeless and He brought you to life; then He will cause you to die, then He will bring you [back] to life, and then to Him you will be returned.
هُوَ ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَ لَكُم مَّا فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ جَمِيعࣰا ثُمَّ ٱسۡتَوَىٰٓ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَآءِ فَسَوَّىٰهُنَّ سَبۡعَ سَمَٰوَٰتࣲ ۚ وَ هُوَ بِكُلِّ شَيۡءٍ عَلِيمࣱ﴿٢٩﴾
Huwa allathee khalaqa lakum ma fee alardi jameeʿan thumma istawa ila alssamai fasawwahunna sabʿa samawatin wahuwa bikulli shayin ʿaleemun
It is He who created for you all of that which is on the earth. Then He directed Himself to the heaven, [His being above all creation], and made them seven heavens, and He is Knowing of all things.
وَ إِذۡ قَالَ رَبُّكَ لِلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةِ إِنِّي جَاعِلࣱ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ خَلِيفَةࣰ ۖ قَالُوٓاْ أَتَجۡعَلُ فِيهَا مَن يُفۡسِدُ فِيهَا وَ يَسۡفِكُ ٱلدِّمَآءَ وَ نَحۡنُ نُسَبِّحُ بِحَمۡدِكَ وَ نُقَدِّسُ لَكَ ۖ قَالَ إِنِّيٓ أَعۡلَمُ مَا لَا تَعۡلَمُونَ﴿٣٠﴾
Waith qala rabbuka lilmalaikati innee jaʿilun fee alardi khaleefatan qaloo atajʿalu feeha man yufsidu feeha wayasfiku alddimaa wanahnu nusabbihu bihamdika wanuqaddisu laka qala innee aʿlamu ma la taʿlamoona
And [mention, O Muḥammad], when your Lord said to the angels, "Indeed, I will make upon the earth a successive authority." They said, "Will You place upon it one who causes corruption therein and sheds blood, while we exalt You with praise and declare Your perfection?" He [Allāh] said, "Indeed, I know that which you do not know."
وَ عَلَّمَ ءَادَمَ ٱلۡأَسۡمَآءَ كُلَّهَا ثُمَّ عَرَضَهُمۡ عَلَى ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةِ فَقَالَ أَنۢبِـُٔونِي بِأَسۡمَآءِ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ إِن كُنتُمۡ صَٰدِقِينَ﴿٣١﴾
Waʿallama adama alasmaa kullaha thumma ʿaradahum ʿala almalaikati faqala anbioonee biasmai haolai in kuntum sadiqeena
And He taught Adam the names - all of them. Then He showed them to the angels and said, "Inform Me of the names of these, if you are truthful."
قَالُواْ سُبۡحَٰنَكَ لَا عِلۡمَ لَنَآ إِلَّا مَا عَلَّمۡتَنَآ ۖ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ ٱلۡعَلِيمُ ٱلۡحَكِيمُ﴿٣٢﴾
Qaloo subhanaka la ʿilma lana illa ma ʿallamtana innaka anta alʿaleemu alhakeemu
They said, "Exalted are You; we have no knowledge except what You have taught us. Indeed, it is You who is the Knowing, the Wise."
قَالَ يَٰٓـَٔادَمُ أَنۢبِئۡهُم بِأَسۡمَآئِهِمۡ ۖ فَلَمَّآ أَنۢبَأَهُم بِأَسۡمَآئِهِمۡ قَالَ أَلَمۡ أَقُل لَّكُمۡ إِنِّيٓ أَعۡلَمُ غَيۡبَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَ ٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَ أَعۡلَمُ مَا تُبۡدُونَ وَ مَا كُنتُمۡ تَكۡتُمُونَ﴿٣٣﴾
Qala ya adamu anbihum biasmaihim falamma anbaahum biasmaihim qala alam aqul lakum innee aʿlamu ghayba alssamawati waalardi waaʿlamu ma tubdoona wama kuntum taktumoona
He said, "O Adam, inform them of their names." And when he had informed them of their names, He said, "Did I not tell you that I know the unseen [aspects] of the heavens and the earth? And I know what you reveal and what you have concealed."
وَ إِذۡ قُلۡنَا لِلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةِ ٱسۡجُدُواْ لِأٓدَمَ فَسَجَدُوٓاْ إِلَّآ إِبۡلِيسَ أَبَىٰ وَ ٱسۡتَكۡبَرَ وَ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ﴿٣٤﴾
Waith qulna lilmalaikati osjudoo liadama fasajadoo illa ibleesa aba waistakbara wakana mina alkafireena
And [mention] when We said to the angels, "Prostrate before Adam"; so they prostrated, except for Iblees. He refused and was arrogant and became of the disbelievers.
وَ قُلۡنَا يَٰٓـَٔادَمُ ٱسۡكُنۡ أَنتَ وَ زَوۡجُكَ ٱلۡجَنَّةَ وَ كُلَا مِنۡهَا رَغَدًا حَيۡثُ شِئۡتُمَا وَ لَا تَقۡرَبَا هَٰذِهِ ٱلشَّجَرَةَ فَتَكُونَا مِنَ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ﴿٣٥﴾
Waqulna ya adamu oskun anta wazawjuka aljannata wakula minha raghadan haythu shituma wala taqraba hathihi alshshajarata fatakoona mina alththalimeena
And We said, "O Adam, dwell, you and your wife, in Paradise and eat therefrom in [ease and] abundance from wherever you will. But do not approach this tree, lest you be among the wrongdoers."
فَأَزَلَّهُمَا ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنُ عَنۡهَا فَأَخۡرَجَهُمَا مِمَّا كَانَا فِيهِ ۖ وَ قُلۡنَا ٱهۡبِطُواْ بَعۡضُكُمۡ لِبَعۡضٍ عَدُوࣱّ ۖ وَ لَكُمۡ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ مُسۡتَقَرࣱّ وَ مَتَٰعٌ إِلَىٰ حِينࣲ﴿٣٦﴾
Faazallahuma alshshaytanu ʿanha faakhrajahuma mimma kana feehi waqulna ihbitoo baʿdukum libaʿdin ʿaduwwun walakum fee alardi mustaqarrun wamataʿun ila heenin
But Satan caused them to slip out of it and removed them from that [condition] in which they had been. And We said, "Go down, [all of you], as enemies to one another, and you will have upon the earth a place of settlement and provision for a time."
فَتَلَقَّىٰٓ ءَادَمُ مِن رَّبِّهِۦ كَلِمَٰتࣲ فَتَابَ عَلَيۡهِ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلتَّوَّابُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ﴿٣٧﴾
Fatalaqqa adamu min rabbihi kalimatin fataba ʿalayhi innahu huwa alttawwabu alrraheemu
Then Adam received from his Lord [some] words, and He accepted his repentance. Indeed, it is He who is the Accepting of Repentance, the Merciful.
قُلۡنَا ٱهۡبِطُواْ مِنۡهَا جَمِيعࣰا ۖ فَإِمَّا يَأۡتِيَنَّكُم مِّنِّي هُدࣰى فَمَن تَبِعَ هُدَايَ فَلَا خَوۡفٌ عَلَيۡهِمۡ وَ لَا هُمۡ يَحۡزَنُونَ﴿٣٨﴾
Qulna ihbitoo minha jameeʿan faimma yatiyannakum minnee hudan faman tabiʿa hudaya fala khawfun ʿalayhim wala hum yahzanoona
We said, "Go down from it, all of you. And when guidance comes to you from Me, whoever follows My guidance - there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve.
وَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ وَ كَذَّبُواْ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَآ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ أَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلنَّارِ ۖ هُمۡ فِيهَا خَٰلِدُونَ﴿٣٩﴾
Waallatheena kafaroo wakaththaboo biayatina olaika ashabu alnnari hum feeha khalidoona
And those who disbelieve and deny Our signs - those will be companions of the Fire; they will abide therein eternally."
يَٰبَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ ٱذۡكُرُواْ نِعۡمَتِيَ ٱلَّتِيٓ أَنۡعَمۡتُ عَلَيۡكُمۡ وَ أَوۡفُواْ بِعَهۡدِيٓ أُوفِ بِعَهۡدِكُمۡ وَ إِيَّٰيَ فَٱرۡهَبُونِ﴿٤٠﴾
Ya banee israeela othkuroo niʿmatiya allatee anʿamtu ʿalaykum waawfoo biʿahdee oofi biʿahdikum waiyyaya fairhabooni
O Children of Israel, remember My favor which I have bestowed upon you and fulfill My covenant [upon you] that I will fulfill your covenant [from Me], and be afraid of [only] Me.
وَ ءَامِنُواْ بِمَآ أَنزَلۡتُ مُصَدِّقࣰا لِّمَا مَعَكُمۡ وَ لَا تَكُونُوٓاْ أَوَّلَ كَافِرِۭ بِهِۦ ۖ وَ لَا تَشۡتَرُواْ بِـَٔايَٰتِي ثَمَنࣰا قَلِيلࣰا وَ إِيَّٰيَ فَٱتَّقُونِ﴿٤١﴾
Waaminoo bima anzaltu musaddiqan lima maʿakum wala takoonoo awwala kafirin bihi wala tashtaroo biayatee thamanan qaleelan waiyyaya faittaqooni
And believe in what I have sent down confirming that which is [already] with you, and be not the first to disbelieve in it. And do not exchange My signs for a small price, and fear [only] Me.
وَ لَا تَلۡبِسُواْ ٱلۡحَقَّ بِٱلۡبَٰطِلِ وَ تَكۡتُمُواْ ٱلۡحَقَّ وَ أَنتُمۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ﴿٤٢﴾
Wala talbisoo alhaqqa bialbatili wataktumoo alhaqqa waantum taʿlamoona
And do not mix the truth with falsehood or conceal the truth while you know [it].
وَ أَقِيمُواْ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَ ءَاتُواْ ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ وَ ٱرۡكَعُواْ مَعَ ٱلرَّٰكِعِينَ﴿٤٣﴾
Waaqeemoo alssalata waatoo alzzakata wairkaʿoo maʿa alrrakiʿeena
And establish prayer and give zakāh and bow with those who bow [in worship and obedience].
أَتَأۡمُرُونَ ٱلنَّاسَ بِٱلۡبِرِّ وَ تَنسَوۡنَ أَنفُسَكُمۡ وَ أَنتُمۡ تَتۡلُونَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ ۚ أَفَلَا تَعۡقِلُونَ﴿٤٤﴾
Atamuroona alnnasa bialbirri watansawna anfusakum waantum tatloona alkitaba afala taʿqiloona
Do you order righteousness of the people and forget yourselves while you recite the Scripture? Then will you not reason?
وَ ٱسۡتَعِينُواْ بِٱلصَّبۡرِ وَ ٱلصَّلَوٰةِ ۚ وَ إِنَّهَا لَكَبِيرَةٌ إِلَّا عَلَى ٱلۡخَٰشِعِينَ﴿٤٥﴾
Waistaʿeenoo bialssabri waalssalati wainnaha lakabeeratun illa ʿala alkhashiʿeena
And seek help through patience and prayer; and indeed, it is difficult except for the humbly submissive [to Allāh]
ٱلَّذِينَ يَظُنُّونَ أَنَّهُم مُّلَٰقُواْ رَبِّهِمۡ وَ أَنَّهُمۡ إِلَيۡهِ رَٰجِعُونَ﴿٤٦﴾
Allatheena yathunnoona annahum mulaqoo rabbihim waannahum ilayhi rajiʿoona
Who are certain that they will meet their Lord and that they will return to Him.
يَٰبَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ ٱذۡكُرُواْ نِعۡمَتِيَ ٱلَّتِيٓ أَنۡعَمۡتُ عَلَيۡكُمۡ وَ أَنِّي فَضَّلۡتُكُمۡ عَلَى ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ﴿٤٧﴾
Ya banee israeela othkuroo niʿmatiya allatee anʿamtu ʿalaykum waannee faddaltukum ʿala alʿalameena
O Children of Israel, remember My favor that I have bestowed upon you and that I preferred you over the worlds [i.e., peoples].
وَ ٱتَّقُواْ يَوۡمࣰا لَّا تَجۡزِي نَفۡسٌ عَن نَّفۡسࣲ شَيۡـࣰٔا وَ لَا يُقۡبَلُ مِنۡهَا شَفَٰعَةࣱ وَ لَا يُؤۡخَذُ مِنۡهَا عَدۡلࣱ وَ لَا هُمۡ يُنصَرُونَ﴿٤٨﴾
Waittaqoo yawman la tajzee nafsun ʿan nafsin shayan wala yuqbalu minha shafaʿatun wala yukhathu minha ʿadlun wala hum yunsaroona
And fear a Day when no soul will suffice for another soul at all, nor will intercession be accepted from it, nor will compensation be taken from it, nor will they be aided.
وَ إِذۡ نَجَّيۡنَٰكُم مِّنۡ ءَالِ فِرۡعَوۡنَ يَسُومُونَكُمۡ سُوٓءَ ٱلۡعَذَابِ يُذَبِّحُونَ أَبۡنَآءَكُمۡ وَ يَسۡتَحۡيُونَ نِسَآءَكُمۡ ۚ وَ فِي ذَٰلِكُم بَلَآءࣱ مِّن رَّبِّكُمۡ عَظِيمࣱ﴿٤٩﴾
Waith najjaynakum min ali firʿawna yasoomoonakum sooa alʿathabi yuthabbihoona abnaakum wayastahyoona nisaakum wafee thalikum balaon min rabbikum ʿatheemun
And [recall] when We saved you [i.e., your forefathers] from the people of Pharaoh, who afflicted you with the worst torment, slaughtering your [newborn] sons and keeping your females alive. And in that was a great trial from your Lord.
وَ إِذۡ فَرَقۡنَا بِكُمُ ٱلۡبَحۡرَ فَأَنجَيۡنَٰكُمۡ وَ أَغۡرَقۡنَآ ءَالَ فِرۡعَوۡنَ وَ أَنتُمۡ تَنظُرُونَ﴿٥٠﴾
Waith faraqna bikumu albahra faanjaynakum waaghraqna ala firʿawna waantum tanthuroona
And [recall] when We parted the sea for you and saved you and drowned the people of Pharaoh while you were looking on.
وَ إِذۡ وَٰعَدۡنَا مُوسَىٰٓ أَرۡبَعِينَ لَيۡلَةࣰ ثُمَّ ٱتَّخَذۡتُمُ ٱلۡعِجۡلَ مِنۢ بَعۡدِهِۦ وَ أَنتُمۡ ظَٰلِمُونَ﴿٥١﴾
Waith waʿadna moosa arbaʿeena laylatan thumma ittakhathtumu alʿijla min baʿdihi waantum thalimoona
And [recall] when We made an appointment with Moses for forty nights. Then you took [for worship] the calf after him [i.e., his departure], while you were wrongdoers.
ثُمَّ عَفَوۡنَا عَنكُم مِّنۢ بَعۡدِ ذَٰلِكَ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَشۡكُرُونَ﴿٥٢﴾
Thumma ʿafawna ʿankum min baʿdi thalika laʿallakum tashkuroona
Then We forgave you after that so perhaps you would be grateful.
وَ إِذۡ ءَاتَيۡنَا مُوسَى ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ وَ ٱلۡفُرۡقَانَ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَهۡتَدُونَ﴿٥٣﴾
Waith atayna moosa alkitaba waalfurqana laʿallakum tahtadoona
And [recall] when We gave Moses the Scripture and criterion that perhaps you would be guided.
وَ إِذۡ قَالَ مُوسَىٰ لِقَوۡمِهِۦ يَٰقَوۡمِ إِنَّكُمۡ ظَلَمۡتُمۡ أَنفُسَكُم بِٱتِّخَاذِكُمُ ٱلۡعِجۡلَ فَتُوبُوٓاْ إِلَىٰ بَارِئِكُمۡ فَٱقۡتُلُوٓاْ أَنفُسَكُمۡ ذَٰلِكُمۡ خَيۡرࣱ لَّكُمۡ عِندَ بَارِئِكُمۡ فَتَابَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلتَّوَّابُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ﴿٥٤﴾
Waith qala moosa liqawmihi ya qawmi innakum thalamtum anfusakum biittikhathikumu alʿijla fatooboo ila bariikum faoqtuloo anfusakum thalikum khayrun lakum ʿinda bariikum fataba ʿalaykum innahu huwa alttawwabu alrraheemu
And [recall] when Moses said to his people, "O my people, indeed you have wronged yourselves by your taking of the calf [for worship]. So repent to your Creator and kill yourselves [i.e., the guilty among you]. That is best for [all of] you in the sight of your Creator." Then He accepted your repentance; indeed, He is the Accepting of Repentance, the Merciful.
وَ إِذۡ قُلۡتُمۡ يَٰمُوسَىٰ لَن نُّؤۡمِنَ لَكَ حَتَّىٰ نَرَى ٱللَّهَ جَهۡرَةࣰ فَأَخَذَتۡكُمُ ٱلصَّٰعِقَةُ وَ أَنتُمۡ تَنظُرُونَ﴿٥٥﴾
Waith qultum ya moosa lan numina laka hatta nara Allaha jahratan faakhathatkumu alssaʿiqatu waantum tanthuroona
And [recall] when you said, "O Moses, we will never believe you until we see Allāh outright"; so the thunderbolt took you while you were looking on.
ثُمَّ بَعَثۡنَٰكُم مِّنۢ بَعۡدِ مَوۡتِكُمۡ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَشۡكُرُونَ﴿٥٦﴾
Thumma baʿathnakum min baʿdi mawtikum laʿallakum tashkuroona
Then We revived you after your death that perhaps you would be grateful.
وَ ظَلَّلۡنَا عَلَيۡكُمُ ٱلۡغَمَامَ وَ أَنزَلۡنَا عَلَيۡكُمُ ٱلۡمَنَّ وَ ٱلسَّلۡوَىٰ ۖ كُلُواْ مِن طَيِّبَٰتِ مَا رَزَقۡنَٰكُمۡ ۚ وَ مَا ظَلَمُونَا وَ لَٰكِن كَانُوٓاْ أَنفُسَهُمۡ يَظۡلِمُونَ﴿٥٧﴾
Wathallalna ʿalaykumu alghamama waanzalna ʿalaykumu almanna waalssalwa kuloo min tayyibati ma razaqnakum wama thalamoona walakin kanoo anfusahum yathlimoona
And We shaded you with clouds and sent down to you manna and quails, [saying], "Eat from the good things with which We have provided you." And they wronged Us not - but they were [only] wronging themselves.
وَ إِذۡ قُلۡنَا ٱدۡخُلُواْ هَٰذِهِ ٱلۡقَرۡيَةَ فَكُلُواْ مِنۡهَا حَيۡثُ شِئۡتُمۡ رَغَدࣰا وَ ٱدۡخُلُواْ ٱلۡبَابَ سُجَّدࣰا وَ قُولُواْ حِطَّةࣱ نَّغۡفِرۡ لَكُمۡ خَطَٰيَٰكُمۡ ۚ وَ سَنَزِيدُ ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ﴿٥٨﴾
Waith qulna odkhuloo hathihi alqaryata fakuloo minha haythu shitum raghadan waodkhuloo albaba sujjadan waqooloo hittatun naghfir lakum khatayakum wasanazeedu almuhsineena
And [recall] when We said, "Enter this city [i.e., Jerusalem] and eat from it wherever you will in [ease and] abundance, and enter the gate bowing humbly and say, 'Relieve us of our burdens [i.e., sins].' We will [then] forgive your sins for you, and We will increase the doers of good [in goodness and reward]."
فَبَدَّلَ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ قَوۡلًا غَيۡرَ ٱلَّذِي قِيلَ لَهُمۡ فَأَنزَلۡنَا عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ رِجۡزࣰا مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ بِمَا كَانُواْ يَفۡسُقُونَ﴿٥٩﴾
Fabaddala allatheena thalamoo qawlan ghayra allathee qeela lahum faanzalna ʿala allatheena thalamoo rijzan mina alssamai bima kanoo yafsuqoona
But those who wronged changed [those words] to a statement other than that which had been said to them, so We sent down upon those who wronged a punishment [i.e., plague] from the sky because they were defiantly disobeying.
وَ إِذِ ٱسۡتَسۡقَىٰ مُوسَىٰ لِقَوۡمِهِۦ فَقُلۡنَا ٱضۡرِب بِّعَصَاكَ ٱلۡحَجَرَ ۖ فَٱنفَجَرَتۡ مِنۡهُ ٱثۡنَتَا عَشۡرَةَ عَيۡنࣰا ۖ قَدۡ عَلِمَ كُلُّ أُنَاسࣲ مَّشۡرَبَهُمۡ ۖ كُلُواْ وَ ٱشۡرَبُواْ مِن رِّزۡقِ ٱللَّهِ وَ لَا تَعۡثَوۡاْ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ مُفۡسِدِينَ﴿٦٠﴾
Waithi istasqa moosa liqawmihi faqulna idrib biʿasaka alhajara fainfajarat minhu ithnata ʿashrata ʿaynan qad ʿalima kullu onasin mashrabahum kuloo waishraboo min rizqi Allahi wala taʿthaw fee alardi mufsideena
And [recall] when Moses prayed for water for his people, so We said, "Strike with your staff the stone." And there gushed forth from it twelve springs, and every people [i.e., tribe] knew its watering place. "Eat and drink from the provision of Allāh, and do not commit abuse on the earth, spreading corruption."
وَ إِذۡ قُلۡتُمۡ يَٰمُوسَىٰ لَن نَّصۡبِرَ عَلَىٰ طَعَامࣲ وَٰحِدࣲ فَٱدۡعُ لَنَا رَبَّكَ يُخۡرِجۡ لَنَا مِمَّا تُنۢبِتُ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ مِنۢ بَقۡلِهَا وَ قِثَّآئِهَا وَ فُومِهَا وَ عَدَسِهَا وَ بَصَلِهَا ۖ قَالَ أَتَسۡتَبۡدِلُونَ ٱلَّذِي هُوَ أَدۡنَىٰ بِٱلَّذِي هُوَ خَيۡرٌ ۚ ٱهۡبِطُواْ مِصۡرࣰا فَإِنَّ لَكُم مَّا سَأَلۡتُمۡ ۗ وَ ضُرِبَتۡ عَلَيۡهِمُ ٱلذِّلَّةُ وَ ٱلۡمَسۡكَنَةُ وَ بَآءُو بِغَضَبࣲ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمۡ كَانُواْ يَكۡفُرُونَ بِـَٔايَٰتِ ٱللَّهِ وَ يَقۡتُلُونَ ٱلنَّبِيِّـۧنَ بِغَيۡرِ ٱلۡحَقِّ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ بِمَا عَصَواْ وَّ كَانُواْ يَعۡتَدُونَ﴿٦١﴾
Waith qultum ya moosa lan nasbira ʿala taʿamin wahidin faodʿu lana rabbaka yukhrij lana mimma tunbitu alardu min baqliha waqiththaiha wafoomiha waʿadasiha wabasaliha qala atastabdiloona allathee huwa adna biallathee huwa khayrun ihbitoo misran fainna lakum ma saaltum waduribat ʿalayhimu alththillatu waalmaskanatu wabaoo bighadabin mina Allahi thalika biannahum kanoo yakfuroona biayati Allahi wayaqtuloona alnnabiyyeena bighayri alhaqqi thalika bima ʿasaw wakanoo yaʿtadoona
And [recall] when you said, "O Moses, we can never endure one [kind of] food. So call upon your Lord to bring forth for us from the earth its green herbs and its cucumbers and its garlic and its lentils and its onions." [Moses] said, "Would you exchange what is better for what is less? Go into [any] settlement and indeed, you will have what you have asked." And they were covered with humiliation and poverty and returned with anger from Allāh [upon them]. That was because they [repeatedly] disbelieved in the signs of Allāh and killed the prophets without right. That was because they disobeyed and were [habitually] transgressing.
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَ ٱلَّذِينَ هَادُواْ وَ ٱلنَّصَٰرَىٰ وَ ٱلصَّٰبِـِٔينَ مَنۡ ءَامَنَ بِٱللَّهِ وَ ٱلۡيَوۡمِ ٱلۡأٓخِرِ وَ عَمِلَ صَٰلِحࣰا فَلَهُمۡ أَجۡرُهُمۡ عِندَ رَبِّهِمۡ وَ لَا خَوۡفٌ عَلَيۡهِمۡ وَ لَا هُمۡ يَحۡزَنُونَ﴿٦٢﴾
Inna allatheena amanoo waallatheena hadoo waalnnasara waalssabieena man amana biAllahi waalyawmi alakhiri waʿamila salihan falahum ajruhum ʿinda rabbihim wala khawfun ʿalayhim wala hum yahzanoona
Indeed, those who believed and those who were Jews or Christians or Sabeans [before Prophet Muḥammad (ﷺ)] - those [among them] who believed in Allāh and the Last Day and did righteousness - will have their reward with their Lord, and no fear will there be concerning them, nor will they grieve.
وَ إِذۡ أَخَذۡنَا مِيثَٰقَكُمۡ وَ رَفَعۡنَا فَوۡقَكُمُ ٱلطُّورَ خُذُواْ مَآ ءَاتَيۡنَٰكُم بِقُوَّةࣲ وَ ٱذۡكُرُواْ مَا فِيهِ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَتَّقُونَ﴿٦٣﴾
Waith akhathna meethaqakum warafaʿna fawqakumu alttoora khuthoo ma ataynakum biquwwatin waothkuroo ma feehi laʿallakum tattaqoona
And [recall] when We took your covenant, [O Children of Israel, to abide by the Torah] and We raised over you the mount, [saying], "Take what We have given you with determination and remember what is in it that perhaps you may become righteous."
ثُمَّ تَوَلَّيۡتُم مِّنۢ بَعۡدِ ذَٰلِكَ ۖ فَلَوۡلَا فَضۡلُ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيۡكُمۡ وَ رَحۡمَتُهُۥ لَكُنتُم مِّنَ ٱلۡخَٰسِرِينَ﴿٦٤﴾
Thumma tawallaytum min baʿdi thalika falawla fadlu Allahi ʿalaykum warahmatuhu lakuntum mina alkhasireena
Then you turned away after that. And if not for the favor of Allāh upon you and His mercy, you would have been among the losers.
وَ لَقَدۡ عَلِمۡتُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱعۡتَدَوۡاْ مِنكُمۡ فِي ٱلسَّبۡتِ فَقُلۡنَا لَهُمۡ كُونُواْ قِرَدَةً خَٰسِـِٔينَ﴿٦٥﴾
Walaqad ʿalimtumu allatheena iʿtadaw minkum fee alssabti faqulna lahum koonoo qiradatan khasieena
And you had already known about those who transgressed among you concerning the sabbath, and We said to them, "Be apes, despised."
فَجَعَلۡنَٰهَا نَكَٰلࣰا لِّمَا بَيۡنَ يَدَيۡهَا وَ مَا خَلۡفَهَا وَ مَوۡعِظَةࣰ لِّلۡمُتَّقِينَ﴿٦٦﴾
Fajaʿalnaha nakalan lima bayna yadayha wama khalfaha wamawʿithatan lilmuttaqeena
And We made it a deterrent punishment for those who were present and those who succeeded [them] and a lesson for those who fear Allāh.
وَ إِذۡ قَالَ مُوسَىٰ لِقَوۡمِهِۦٓ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَأۡمُرُكُمۡ أَن تَذۡبَحُواْ بَقَرَةࣰ ۖ قَالُوٓاْ أَتَتَّخِذُنَا هُزُوࣰا ۖ قَالَ أَعُوذُ بِٱللَّهِ أَنۡ أَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلۡجَٰهِلِينَ﴿٦٧﴾
Waith qala moosa liqawmihi inna Allaha yamurukum an tathbahoo baqaratan qaloo atattakhithuna huzuwan qala aʿoothu biAllahi an akoona mina aljahileena
And [recall] when Moses said to his people, "Indeed, Allāh commands you to slaughter a cow." They said, "Do you take us in ridicule?" He said, "I seek refuge in Allāh from being among the ignorant."
قَالُواْ ٱدۡعُ لَنَا رَبَّكَ يُبَيِّن لَّنَا مَا هِيَ ۚ قَالَ إِنَّهُۥ يَقُولُ إِنَّهَا بَقَرَةࣱ لَّا فَارِضࣱ وَ لَا بِكۡرٌ عَوَانُۢ بَيۡنَ ذَٰلِكَ ۖ فَٱفۡعَلُواْ مَا تُؤۡمَرُونَ﴿٦٨﴾
Qaloo odʿu lana rabbaka yubayyin lana ma hiya qala innahu yaqoolu innaha baqaratun la faridun wala bikrun ʿawanun bayna thalika faifʿaloo ma tumaroona
They said, "Call upon your Lord to make clear to us what it is." [Moses] said, "[Allāh] says, 'It is a cow which is neither old nor virgin, but median between that,' so do what you are commanded."
قَالُواْ ٱدۡعُ لَنَا رَبَّكَ يُبَيِّن لَّنَا مَا لَوۡنُهَا ۚ قَالَ إِنَّهُۥ يَقُولُ إِنَّهَا بَقَرَةࣱ صَفۡرَآءُ فَاقِعࣱ لَّوۡنُهَا تَسُرُّ ٱلنَّٰظِرِينَ﴿٦٩﴾
Qaloo odʿu lana rabbaka yubayyin lana ma lawnuha qala innahu yaqoolu innaha baqaratun safrao faqiʿun lawnuha tasurru alnnathireena
They said, "Call upon your Lord to show us what is her color." He said, "He says, 'It is a yellow cow, bright in color - pleasing to the observers.'"
قَالُواْ ٱدۡعُ لَنَا رَبَّكَ يُبَيِّن لَّنَا مَا هِيَ إِنَّ ٱلۡبَقَرَ تَشَٰبَهَ عَلَيۡنَا وَ إِنَّآ إِن شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ لَمُهۡتَدُونَ﴿٧٠﴾
Qaloo odʿu lana rabbaka yubayyin lana ma hiya inna albaqara tashabaha ʿalayna wainna in shaa Allahu lamuhtadoona
They said, "Call upon your Lord to make clear to us what it is. Indeed, [all] cows look alike to us. And indeed we, if Allāh wills, will be guided."
قَالَ إِنَّهُۥ يَقُولُ إِنَّهَا بَقَرَةࣱ لَّا ذَلُولࣱ تُثِيرُ ٱلۡأَرۡضَ وَ لَا تَسۡقِي ٱلۡحَرۡثَ مُسَلَّمَةࣱ لَّا شِيَةَ فِيهَا ۚ قَالُواْ ٱلۡـَٰٔنَ جِئۡتَ بِٱلۡحَقِّ ۚ فَذَبَحُوهَا وَ مَا كَادُواْ يَفۡعَلُونَ﴿٧١﴾
Qala innahu yaqoolu innaha baqaratun la thaloolun tutheeru alarda wala tasqee alhartha musallamatun la shiyata feeha qaloo alana jita bialhaqqi fathabahooha wama kadoo yafʿaloona
He said, "He says, 'It is a cow neither trained to plow the earth nor to irrigate the field, one free from fault with no spot upon her.'" They said, "Now you have come with the truth." So they slaughtered her, but they could hardly do it.
وَ إِذۡ قَتَلۡتُمۡ نَفۡسࣰا فَٱدَّٰرَٰءۡتُمۡ فِيهَا ۖ وَ ٱللَّهُ مُخۡرِجࣱ مَّا كُنتُمۡ تَكۡتُمُونَ﴿٧٢﴾
Waith qataltum nafsan faiddaratum feeha waAllahu mukhrijun ma kuntum taktumoona
And [recall] when you slew a man and disputed over it, but Allāh was to bring out that which you were concealing.
فَقُلۡنَا ٱضۡرِبُوهُ بِبَعۡضِهَا ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ يُحۡيِ ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡمَوۡتَىٰ وَ يُرِيكُمۡ ءَايَٰتِهِۦ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَعۡقِلُونَ﴿٧٣﴾
Faqulna idriboohu bibaʿdiha kathalika yuhyee Allahu almawta wayureekum ayatihi laʿallakum taʿqiloona
So We said, "Strike him [i.e., the slain man] with part of it." Thus does Allāh bring the dead to life, and He shows you His signs that you might reason.
ثُمَّ قَسَتۡ قُلُوبُكُم مِّنۢ بَعۡدِ ذَٰلِكَ فَهِيَ كَٱلۡحِجَارَةِ أَوۡ أَشَدُّ قَسۡوَةࣰ ۚ وَ إِنَّ مِنَ ٱلۡحِجَارَةِ لَمَا يَتَفَجَّرُ مِنۡهُ ٱلۡأَنۡهَٰرُ ۚ وَ إِنَّ مِنۡهَا لَمَا يَشَّقَّقُ فَيَخۡرُجُ مِنۡهُ ٱلۡمَآءُ ۚ وَ إِنَّ مِنۡهَا لَمَا يَهۡبِطُ مِنۡ خَشۡيَةِ ٱللَّهِ ۗ وَ مَا ٱللَّهُ بِغَٰفِلٍ عَمَّا تَعۡمَلُونَ﴿٧٤﴾
Thumma qasat quloobukum min baʿdi thalika fahiya kaalhijarati aw ashaddu qaswatan wainna mina alhijarati lama yatafajjaru minhu alanharu wainna minha lama yashshaqqaqu fayakhruju minhu almao wainna minha lama yahbitu min khashyati Allahi wama Allahu bighafilin ʿamma taʿmaloona
Then your hearts became hardened after that, being like stones or even harder. For indeed, there are stones from which rivers burst forth, and there are some of them that split open and water comes out, and there are some of them that fall down for fear of Allāh. And Allāh is not unaware of what you do.
أَفَتَطۡمَعُونَ أَن يُؤۡمِنُواْ لَكُمۡ وَ قَدۡ كَانَ فَرِيقࣱ مِّنۡهُمۡ يَسۡمَعُونَ كَلَٰمَ ٱللَّهِ ثُمَّ يُحَرِّفُونَهُۥ مِنۢ بَعۡدِ مَا عَقَلُوهُ وَ هُمۡ يَعۡلَمُونَ﴿٧٥﴾
Afatatmaʿoona an yuminoo lakum waqad kana fareequn minhum yasmaʿoona kalama Allahi thumma yuharrifoonahu min baʿdi ma ʿaqaloohu wahum yaʿlamoona
Do you covet [the hope, O believers], that they would believe for you while a party of them used to hear the words of Allāh and then distort it [i.e., the Torah] after they had understood it while they were knowing?
وَ إِذَا لَقُواْ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ قَالُوٓاْ ءَامَنَّا وَ إِذَا خَلَا بَعۡضُهُمۡ إِلَىٰ بَعۡضࣲ قَالُوٓاْ أَتُحَدِّثُونَهُم بِمَا فَتَحَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيۡكُمۡ لِيُحَآجُّوكُم بِهِۦ عِندَ رَبِّكُمۡ ۚ أَفَلَا تَعۡقِلُونَ﴿٧٦﴾
Waitha laqoo allatheena amanoo qaloo amanna waitha khala baʿduhum ila baʿdin qaloo atuhaddithoonahum bima fataha Allahu ʿalaykum liyuhajjookum bihi ʿinda rabbikum afala taʿqiloona
And when they meet those who believe, they say, "We have believed"; but when they are alone with one another, they say, "Do you talk to them about what Allāh has revealed to you so they can argue with you about it before your Lord?" Then will you not reason?
أَوَلَا يَعۡلَمُونَ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَعۡلَمُ مَا يُسِرُّونَ وَ مَا يُعۡلِنُونَ﴿٧٧﴾
Awala yaʿlamoona anna Allaha yaʿlamu ma yusirroona wama yuʿlinoona
But do they not know that Allāh knows what they conceal and what they declare?
وَ مِنۡهُمۡ أُمِّيُّونَ لَا يَعۡلَمُونَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ إِلَّآ أَمَانِيَّ وَ إِنۡ هُمۡ إِلَّا يَظُنُّونَ﴿٧٨﴾
Waminhum ommiyyoona la yaʿlamoona alkitaba illa amaniyya wain hum illa yathunnoona
And among them are unlettered ones who do not know the Scripture except [indulgement in] wishful thinking, but they are only assuming.
فَوَيۡلࣱ لِّلَّذِينَ يَكۡتُبُونَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ بِأَيۡدِيهِمۡ ثُمَّ يَقُولُونَ هَٰذَا مِنۡ عِندِ ٱللَّهِ لِيَشۡتَرُواْ بِهِۦ ثَمَنࣰا قَلِيلࣰا ۖ فَوَيۡلࣱ لَّهُم مِّمَّا كَتَبَتۡ أَيۡدِيهِمۡ وَ وَيۡلࣱ لَّهُم مِّمَّا يَكۡسِبُونَ﴿٧٩﴾
Fawaylun lillatheena yaktuboona alkitaba biaydeehim thumma yaqooloona hatha min ʿindi Allahi liyashtaroo bihi thamanan qaleelan fawaylun lahum mimma katabat aydeehim wawaylun lahum mimma yaksiboona
So woe to those who write the "scripture" with their own hands, then say, "This is from Allāh," in order to exchange it for a small price. Woe to them for what their hands have written and woe to them for what they earn.
وَ قَالُواْ لَن تَمَسَّنَا ٱلنَّارُ إِلَّآ أَيَّامࣰا مَّعۡدُودَةࣰ ۚ قُلۡ أَتَّخَذۡتُمۡ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ عَهۡدࣰا فَلَن يُخۡلِفَ ٱللَّهُ عَهۡدَهُۥٓ ۖ أَمۡ تَقُولُونَ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ مَا لَا تَعۡلَمُونَ﴿٨٠﴾
Waqaloo lan tamassana alnnaru illa ayyaman maʿdoodatan qul attakhathtum ʿinda Allahi ʿahdan falan yukhlifa Allahu ʿahdahu am taqooloona ʿala Allahi ma la taʿlamoona
And they say, "Never will the Fire touch us, except for [a few] numbered days." Say, "Have you taken a covenant with Allāh? For Allāh will never break His covenant. Or do you say about Allāh that which you do not know?"
بَلَىٰ ۚ مَن كَسَبَ سَيِّئَةࣰ وَ أَحَٰطَتۡ بِهِۦ خَطِيٓـَٔتُهُۥ فَأُوْلَٰٓئِكَ أَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلنَّارِ ۖ هُمۡ فِيهَا خَٰلِدُونَ﴿٨١﴾
Bala man kasaba sayyiatan waahatat bihi khateeatuhu faolaika ashabu alnnari hum feeha khalidoona
Yes, [on the contrary], whoever earns evil and his sin has encompassed him - those are the companions of the Fire; they will abide therein eternally.
وَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَ عَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ أَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلۡجَنَّةِ ۖ هُمۡ فِيهَا خَٰلِدُونَ﴿٨٢﴾
Waallatheena amanoo waʿamiloo alssalihati olaika ashabu aljannati hum feeha khalidoona
But they who believe and do righteous deeds - those are the companions of Paradise; they will abide therein eternally.
وَ إِذۡ أَخَذۡنَا مِيثَٰقَ بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ لَا تَعۡبُدُونَ إِلَّا ٱللَّهَ وَ بِٱلۡوَٰلِدَيۡنِ إِحۡسَانࣰا وَ ذِي ٱلۡقُرۡبَىٰ وَ ٱلۡيَتَٰمَىٰ وَ ٱلۡمَسَٰكِينِ وَ قُولُواْ لِلنَّاسِ حُسۡنࣰا وَ أَقِيمُواْ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَ ءَاتُواْ ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ ثُمَّ تَوَلَّيۡتُمۡ إِلَّا قَلِيلࣰا مِّنكُمۡ وَ أَنتُم مُّعۡرِضُونَ﴿٨٣﴾

And [recall] when We took the covenant from the Children of Israel, [enjoining upon them], "Do not worship except Allāh; and to parents do good and to relatives, orphans, and the needy. And speak to people good [words] and establish prayer and give zakāh." Then you turned away, except a few of you, and you were refusing.
وَ إِذۡ أَخَذۡنَا مِيثَٰقَكُمۡ لَا تَسۡفِكُونَ دِمَآءَكُمۡ وَ لَا تُخۡرِجُونَ أَنفُسَكُم مِّن دِيَٰرِكُمۡ ثُمَّ أَقۡرَرۡتُمۡ وَ أَنتُمۡ تَشۡهَدُونَ﴿٨٤﴾
Waith akhathna meethaqakum la tasfikoona dimaakum wala tukhrijoona anfusakum min diyarikum thumma aqrartum waantum tashhadoona
And [recall] when We took your covenant, [saying], "Do not shed your [i.e., each other's] blood or evict one another from your homes." Then you acknowledged [this] while you were witnessing.
ثُمَّ أَنتُمۡ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ تَقۡتُلُونَ أَنفُسَكُمۡ وَ تُخۡرِجُونَ فَرِيقࣰا مِّنكُم مِّن دِيَٰرِهِمۡ تَظَٰهَرُونَ عَلَيۡهِم بِٱلۡإِثۡمِ وَ ٱلۡعُدۡوَٰنِ وَ إِن يَأۡتُوكُمۡ أُسَٰرَىٰ تُفَٰدُوهُمۡ وَ هُوَ مُحَرَّمٌ عَلَيۡكُمۡ إِخۡرَاجُهُمۡ ۚ أَفَتُؤۡمِنُونَ بِبَعۡضِ ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ وَ تَكۡفُرُونَ بِبَعۡضࣲ ۚ فَمَا جَزَآءُ مَن يَفۡعَلُ ذَٰلِكَ مِنكُمۡ إِلَّا خِزۡيࣱ فِي ٱلۡحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنۡيَا ۖ وَ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِ يُرَدُّونَ إِلَىٰٓ أَشَدِّ ٱلۡعَذَابِ ۗ وَ مَا ٱللَّهُ بِغَٰفِلٍ عَمَّا تَعۡمَلُونَ﴿٨٥﴾
Thumma antum haolai taqtuloona anfusakum watukhrijoona fareeqan minkum min diyarihim tathaharoona ʿalayhim bialithmi waalʿudwani wain yatookum osara tufadoohum wahuwa muharramun ʿalaykum ikhrajuhum afatuminoona bibaʿdi alkitabi watakfuroona bibaʿdin fama jazao man yafʿalu thalika minkum illa khizyun fee alhayati alddunya wayawma alqiyamati yuraddoona ila ashaddi alʿathabi wama Allahu bighafilin ʿamma taʿmaloona
Then, you are those [same ones who are] killing one another and evicting a party of your people from their homes, cooperating against them in sin and aggression. And if they come to you as captives, you ransom them, although their eviction was forbidden to you. So do you believe in part of the Scripture and disbelieve in part? Then what is the recompense for those who do that among you except disgrace in worldly life; and on the Day of Resurrection they will be sent back to the severest of punishment. And Allāh is not unaware of what you do.
أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱشۡتَرَوُاْ ٱلۡحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنۡيَا بِٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ ۖ فَلَا يُخَفَّفُ عَنۡهُمُ ٱلۡعَذَابُ وَ لَا هُمۡ يُنصَرُونَ﴿٨٦﴾
Olaika allatheena ishtarawoo alhayata alddunya bialakhirati fala yukhaffafu ʿanhumu alʿathabu wala hum yunsaroona
Those are the ones who have bought the life of this world [in exchange] for the Hereafter, so the punishment will not be lightened for them, nor will they be aided.
وَ لَقَدۡ ءَاتَيۡنَا مُوسَى ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ وَ قَفَّيۡنَا مِنۢ بَعۡدِهِۦ بِٱلرُّسُلِ ۖ وَ ءَاتَيۡنَا عِيسَى ٱبۡنَ مَرۡيَمَ ٱلۡبَيِّنَٰتِ وَ أَيَّدۡنَٰهُ بِرُوحِ ٱلۡقُدُسِ ۗ أَفَكُلَّمَا جَآءَكُمۡ رَسُولُۢ بِمَا لَا تَهۡوَىٰٓ أَنفُسُكُمُ ٱسۡتَكۡبَرۡتُمۡ فَفَرِيقࣰا كَذَّبۡتُمۡ وَ فَرِيقࣰا تَقۡتُلُونَ﴿٨٧﴾

And We did certainly give Moses the Scripture [i.e., the Torah] and followed up after him with messengers. And We gave Jesus, the son of Mary, clear proofs and supported him with the Pure Spirit [i.e., the angel Gabriel]. But is it [not] that every time a messenger came to you, [O Children of Israel], with what your souls did not desire, you were arrogant? And a party [of messengers] you denied and another party you killed.
وَ قَالُواْ قُلُوبُنَا غُلۡفُۢ ۚ بَل لَّعَنَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ بِكُفۡرِهِمۡ فَقَلِيلࣰا مَّا يُؤۡمِنُونَ﴿٨٨﴾
Waqaloo quloobuna ghulfun bal laʿanahumu Allahu bikufrihim faqaleelan ma yuminoona
And they said, "Our hearts are wrapped." But, [in fact], Allāh has cursed them for their disbelief, so little is it that they believe.
وَ لَمَّا جَآءَهُمۡ كِتَٰبࣱ مِّنۡ عِندِ ٱللَّهِ مُصَدِّقࣱ لِّمَا مَعَهُمۡ وَ كَانُواْ مِن قَبۡلُ يَسۡتَفۡتِحُونَ عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ فَلَمَّا جَآءَهُم مَّا عَرَفُواْ كَفَرُواْ بِهِۦ ۚ فَلَعۡنَةُ ٱللَّهِ عَلَى ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ﴿٨٩﴾
Walamma jaahum kitabun min ʿindi Allahi musaddiqun lima maʿahum wakanoo min qablu yastaftihoona ʿala allatheena kafaroo falamma jaahum ma ʿarafoo kafaroo bihi falaʿnatu Allahi ʿala alkafireena
And when there came to them a Book [i.e., the Qur’ān] from Allāh confirming that which was with them - although before they used to pray for victory against those who disbelieved - but [then] when there came to them that which they recognized, they disbelieved in it; so the curse of Allāh will be upon the disbelievers.
بِئۡسَمَا ٱشۡتَرَوۡاْ بِهِۦٓ أَنفُسَهُمۡ أَن يَكۡفُرُواْ بِمَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ بَغۡيًا أَن يُنَزِّلَ ٱللَّهُ مِن فَضۡلِهِۦ عَلَىٰ مَن يَشَآءُ مِنۡ عِبَادِهِۦ ۖ فَبَآءُو بِغَضَبٍ عَلَىٰ غَضَبࣲ ۚ وَ لِلۡكَٰفِرِينَ عَذَابࣱ مُّهِينࣱ﴿٩٠﴾
Bisama ishtaraw bihi anfusahum an yakfuroo bima anzala Allahu baghyan an yunazzila Allahu min fadlihi ʿala man yashao min ʿibadihi fabaoo bighadabin ʿala ghadabin walilkafireena ʿathabun muheenun
How wretched is that for which they sold themselves - that they would disbelieve in what Allāh has revealed through [their] outrage that Allāh would send down His favor upon whom He wills from among His servants. So they returned having [earned] wrath upon wrath. And for the disbelievers is a humiliating punishment.
وَ إِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمۡ ءَامِنُواْ بِمَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ قَالُواْ نُؤۡمِنُ بِمَآ أُنزِلَ عَلَيۡنَا وَ يَكۡفُرُونَ بِمَا وَرَآءَهُۥ وَ هُوَ ٱلۡحَقُّ مُصَدِّقࣰا لِّمَا مَعَهُمۡ ۗ قُلۡ فَلِمَ تَقۡتُلُونَ أَنۢبِيَآءَ ٱللَّهِ مِن قَبۡلُ إِن كُنتُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ﴿٩١﴾
Waitha qeela lahum aminoo bima anzala Allahu qaloo numinu bima onzila ʿalayna wayakfuroona bima waraahu wahuwa alhaqqu musaddiqan lima maʿahum qul falima taqtuloona anbiyaa Allahi min qablu in kuntum mumineena
And when it is said to them, "Believe in what Allāh has revealed," they say, "We believe [only] in what was revealed to us." And they disbelieve in what came after it, while it is the truth confirming that which is with them. Say, "Then why did you kill the prophets of Allāh before, if you are [indeed] believers?"
وَ لَقَدۡ جَآءَكُم مُّوسَىٰ بِٱلۡبَيِّنَٰتِ ثُمَّ ٱتَّخَذۡتُمُ ٱلۡعِجۡلَ مِنۢ بَعۡدِهِۦ وَ أَنتُمۡ ظَٰلِمُونَ﴿٩٢﴾
Walaqad jaakum moosa bialbayyinati thumma ittakhathtumu alʿijla min baʿdihi waantum thalimoona
And Moses had certainly brought you clear proofs. Then you took the calf [in worship] after that, while you were wrongdoers.
وَ إِذۡ أَخَذۡنَا مِيثَٰقَكُمۡ وَ رَفَعۡنَا فَوۡقَكُمُ ٱلطُّورَ خُذُواْ مَآ ءَاتَيۡنَٰكُم بِقُوَّةࣲ وَ ٱسۡمَعُواْ ۖ قَالُواْ سَمِعۡنَا وَ عَصَيۡنَا وَ أُشۡرِبُواْ فِي قُلُوبِهِمُ ٱلۡعِجۡلَ بِكُفۡرِهِمۡ ۚ قُلۡ بِئۡسَمَا يَأۡمُرُكُم بِهِۦٓ إِيمَٰنُكُمۡ إِن كُنتُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ﴿٩٣﴾
Waith akhathna meethaqakum warafaʿna fawqakumu alttoora khuthoo ma ataynakum biquwwatin waismaʿoo qaloo samiʿna waʿasayna waoshriboo fee quloobihimu alʿijla bikufrihim qul bisama yamurukum bihi eemanukum in kuntum mumineena
And [recall] when We took your covenant and raised over you the mount, [saying], "Take what We have given you with determination and listen." They said [instead], "We hear and disobey." And their hearts absorbed [the worship of] the calf because of their disbelief. Say, "How wretched is that which your faith enjoins upon you, if you should be believers."
قُلۡ إِن كَانَتۡ لَكُمُ ٱلدَّارُ ٱلۡأٓخِرَةُ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ خَالِصَةࣰ مِّن دُونِ ٱلنَّاسِ فَتَمَنَّوُاْ ٱلۡمَوۡتَ إِن كُنتُمۡ صَٰدِقِينَ﴿٩٤﴾
Qul in kanat lakumu alddaru alakhiratu ʿinda Allahi khalisatan min dooni alnnasi fatamannawoo almawta in kuntum sadiqeena
Say, [O Muḥammad], "If the home of the Hereafter with Allāh is for you alone and not the [other] people, then wish for death, if you should be truthful."
وَ لَن يَتَمَنَّوۡهُ أَبَدَۢا بِمَا قَدَّمَتۡ أَيۡدِيهِمۡ ۚ وَ ٱللَّهُ عَلِيمُۢ بِٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ﴿٩٥﴾
Walan yatamannawhu abadan bima qaddamat aydeehim waAllahu ʿaleemun bialththalimeena
But never will they wish for it, ever, because of what their hands have put forth. And Allāh is Knowing of the wrongdoers.
وَ لَتَجِدَنَّهُمۡ أَحۡرَصَ ٱلنَّاسِ عَلَىٰ حَيَوٰةࣲ وَ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَشۡرَكُواْ ۚ يَوَدُّ أَحَدُهُمۡ لَوۡ يُعَمَّرُ أَلۡفَ سَنَةࣲ وَ مَا هُوَ بِمُزَحۡزِحِهِۦ مِنَ ٱلۡعَذَابِ أَن يُعَمَّرَ ۗ وَ ٱللَّهُ بَصِيرُۢ بِمَا يَعۡمَلُونَ﴿٩٦﴾
Walatajidannahum ahrasa alnnasi ʿala hayatin wamina allatheena ashrakoo yawaddu ahaduhum law yuʿammaru alfa sanatin wama huwa bimuzahzihihi mina alʿathabi an yuʿammara waAllahu baseerun bima yaʿmaloona
And you will surely find them the most greedy of people for life - [even] more than those who associate others with Allāh. One of them wishes that he could be granted life a thousand years, but it would not remove him in the least from the [coming] punishment that he should be granted life. And Allāh is Seeing of what they do.
قُلۡ مَن كَانَ عَدُوࣰّا لِّـجِبۡرِيلَ فَإِنَّهُۥ نَزَّلَهُۥ عَلَىٰ قَلۡبِكَ بِإِذۡنِ ٱللَّهِ مُصَدِّقࣰا لِّمَا بَيۡنَ يَدَيۡهِ وَ هُدࣰى وَ بُشۡرَىٰ لِلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ﴿٩٧﴾
Qul man kana ʿaduwwan lijibreela fainnahu nazzalahu ʿala qalbika biithni Allahi musaddiqan lima bayna yadayhi wahudan wabushra lilmumineena
Say, "Whoever is an enemy to Gabriel - it is [none but] he who has brought it [i.e., the Qur’ān] down upon your heart, [O Muḥammad], by permission of Allāh, confirming that which was before it and as guidance and good tidings for the believers."
مَن كَانَ عَدُوࣰّا لِّلَّهِ وَ مَلَٰٓئِكَتِهِۦ وَ رُسُلِهِۦ وَ جِبۡرِيلَ وَ مِيكَىٰلَ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَدُوࣱّ لِّلۡكَٰفِرِينَ﴿٩٨﴾
Man kana ʿaduwwan lillahi wamalaikatihi warusulihi wajibreela wameekala fainna Allaha ʿaduwwun lilkafireena
Whoever is an enemy to Allāh and His angels and His messengers and Gabriel and Michael - then indeed, Allāh is an enemy to the disbelievers.
وَ لَقَدۡ أَنزَلۡنَآ إِلَيۡكَ ءَايَٰتِۭ بَيِّنَٰتࣲ ۖ وَ مَا يَكۡفُرُ بِهَآ إِلَّا ٱلۡفَٰسِقُونَ﴿٩٩﴾
Walaqad anzalna ilayka ayatin bayyinatin wama yakfuru biha illa alfasiqoona
And We have certainly revealed to you verses [which are] clear proofs, and no one would deny them except the defiantly disobedient.
أَوَكُلَّمَا عَٰهَدُواْ عَهۡدࣰا نَّبَذَهُۥ فَرِيقࣱ مِّنۡهُم ۚ بَلۡ أَكۡثَرُهُمۡ لَا يُؤۡمِنُونَ﴿١٠٠﴾
Awakullama ʿahadoo ʿahdan nabathahu fareequn minhum bal aktharuhum la yuminoona
Is it not [true] that every time they took a covenant a party of them threw it away? But, [in fact], most of them do not believe.
وَ لَمَّا جَآءَهُمۡ رَسُولࣱ مِّنۡ عِندِ ٱللَّهِ مُصَدِّقࣱ لِّمَا مَعَهُمۡ نَبَذَ فَرِيقࣱ مِّنَ ٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُواْ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ كِتَٰبَ ٱللَّهِ وَرَآءَ ظُهُورِهِمۡ كَأَنَّهُمۡ لَا يَعۡلَمُونَ﴿١٠١﴾
Walamma jaahum rasoolun min ʿindi Allahi musaddiqun lima maʿahum nabatha fareequn mina allatheena ootoo alkitaba kitaba Allahi waraa thuhoorihim kaannahum la yaʿlamoona
And when a messenger from Allāh came to them confirming that which was with them, a party of those who had been given the Scripture threw the Scripture of Allāh [i.e., the Torah] behind their backs as if they did not know [what it contained].
وَ ٱتَّبَعُواْ مَا تَتۡلُواْ ٱلشَّيَٰطِينُ عَلَىٰ مُلۡكِ سُلَيۡمَٰنَ ۖ وَ مَا كَفَرَ سُلَيۡمَٰنُ وَ لَٰكِنَّ ٱلشَّيَٰطِينَ كَفَرُواْ يُعَلِّمُونَ ٱلنَّاسَ ٱلسِّحۡرَ وَ مَآ أُنزِلَ عَلَى ٱلۡمَلَكَيۡنِ بِبَابِلَ هَٰرُوتَ وَ مَٰرُوتَ ۚ وَ مَا يُعَلِّمَانِ مِنۡ أَحَدٍ حَتَّىٰ يَقُولَآ إِنَّمَا نَحۡنُ فِتۡنَةࣱ فَلَا تَكۡفُرۡ ۖ فَيَتَعَلَّمُونَ مِنۡهُمَا مَا يُفَرِّقُونَ بِهِۦ بَيۡنَ ٱلۡمَرۡءِ وَ زَوۡجِهِۦ ۚ وَ مَا هُم بِضَآرِّينَ بِهِۦ مِنۡ أَحَدٍ إِلَّا بِإِذۡنِ ٱللَّهِ ۚ وَ يَتَعَلَّمُونَ مَا يَضُرُّهُمۡ وَ لَا يَنفَعُهُمۡ ۚ وَ لَقَدۡ عَلِمُواْ لَمَنِ ٱشۡتَرَىٰهُ مَا لَهُۥ فِي ٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ مِنۡ خَلَٰقࣲ ۚ وَ لَبِئۡسَ مَا شَرَوۡاْ بِهِۦٓ أَنفُسَهُمۡ ۚ لَوۡ كَانُواْ يَعۡلَمُونَ﴿١٠٢﴾
Waittabaʿoo ma tatloo alshshayateenu ʿala mulki sulaymana wama kafara sulaymanu walakinna alshshayateena kafaroo yuʿallimoona alnnasa alssihra wama onzila ʿala almalakayni bibabila haroota wamaroota wama yuʿallimani min ahadin hatta yaqoola innama nahnu fitnatun fala takfur fayataʿallamoona minhuma ma yufarriqoona bihi bayna almari wazawjihi wama hum bidarreena bihi min ahadin illa biithni Allahi wayataʿallamoona ma yadurruhum wala yanfaʿuhum walaqad ʿalimoo lamani ishtarahu ma lahu fee alakhirati min khalaqin walabisa ma sharaw bihi anfusahum law kanoo yaʿlamoona
And they followed [instead] what the devils had recited during the reign of Solomon. It was not Solomon who disbelieved, but the devils disbelieved, teaching people magic and that which was revealed to the two angels at Babylon, Hārūt and Mārūt. But they [i.e., the two angels] do not teach anyone unless they say, "We are a trial, so do not disbelieve [by practicing magic]." And [yet] they learn from them that by which they cause separation between a man and his wife. But they do not harm anyone through it except by permission of Allāh. And they [i.e., people] learn what harms them and does not benefit them. But they [i.e., the Children of Israel] certainly knew that whoever purchased it [i.e., magic] would not have in the Hereafter any share. And wretched is that for which they sold themselves, if they only knew.
وَ لَوۡ أَنَّهُمۡ ءَامَنُواْ وَ ٱتَّقَوۡاْ لَمَثُوبَةࣱ مِّنۡ عِندِ ٱللَّهِ خَيۡرࣱ ۚ لَّوۡ كَانُواْ يَعۡلَمُونَ﴿١٠٣﴾
Walaw annahum amanoo waittaqaw lamathoobatun min ʿindi Allahi khayrun law kanoo yaʿlamoona
And if they had believed and feared Allāh, then the reward from Allāh would have been [far] better, if they only knew.
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ لَا تَقُولُواْ رَٰعِنَا وَ قُولُواْ ٱنظُرۡنَا وَ ٱسۡمَعُواْ ۗ وَ لِلۡكَٰفِرِينَ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمࣱ﴿١٠٤﴾
Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo la taqooloo raʿina waqooloo onthurna waismaʿoo walilkafireena ʿathabun aleemun
O you who have believed, say not [to Allāh's Messenger], "Rāʿinā" but say, "Unẓurnā" and listen. And for the disbelievers is a painful punishment.
مَّا يَوَدُّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ مِنۡ أَهۡلِ ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ وَ لَا ٱلۡمُشۡرِكِينَ أَن يُنَزَّلَ عَلَيۡكُم مِّنۡ خَيۡرࣲ مِّن رَّبِّكُمۡ ۚ وَ ٱللَّهُ يَخۡتَصُّ بِرَحۡمَتِهِۦ مَن يَشَآءُ ۚ وَ ٱللَّهُ ذُو ٱلۡفَضۡلِ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ﴿١٠٥﴾
Ma yawaddu allatheena kafaroo min ahli alkitabi wala almushrikeena an yunazzala ʿalaykum min khayrin min rabbikum waAllahu yakhtassu birahmatihi man yashao waAllahu thoo alfadli alʿatheemi
Neither those who disbelieve from the People of the Scripture [i.e., the Jews and Christians] nor the polytheists wish that any good should be sent down to you from your Lord. But Allāh selects for His mercy whom He wills, and Allāh is the possessor of great bounty.
مَا نَنسَخۡ مِنۡ ءَايَةٍ أَوۡ نُنسِهَا نَأۡتِ بِخَيۡرࣲ مِّنۡهَآ أَوۡ مِثۡلِهَآ ۗ أَلَمۡ تَعۡلَمۡ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيۡءࣲ قَدِيرٌ﴿١٠٦﴾
Ma nansakh min ayatin aw nunsiha nati bikhayrin minha aw mithliha alam taʿlam anna Allaha ʿala kulli shayin qadeerun
We do not abrogate a verse or cause it to be forgotten except that We bring forth [one] better than it or similar to it. Do you not know that Allāh is over all things competent?
أَلَمۡ تَعۡلَمۡ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَهُۥ مُلۡكُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَ ٱلۡأَرۡضِ ۗ وَ مَا لَكُم مِّن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مِن وَلِيࣲّ وَ لَا نَصِيرٍ﴿١٠٧﴾
Alam taʿlam anna Allaha lahu mulku alssamawati waalardi wama lakum min dooni Allahi min waliyyin wala naseerin
Do you not know that to Allāh belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and [that] you have not besides Allāh any protector or any helper?
أَمۡ تُرِيدُونَ أَن تَسۡـَٔلُواْ رَسُولَكُمۡ كَمَا سُئِلَ مُوسَىٰ مِن قَبۡلُ ۗ وَ مَن يَتَبَدَّلِ ٱلۡكُفۡرَ بِٱلۡإِيمَٰنِ فَقَدۡ ضَلَّ سَوَآءَ ٱلسَّبِيلِ﴿١٠٨﴾
Am tureedoona an tasaloo rasoolakum kama suila moosa min qablu waman yatabaddali alkufra bialeemani faqad dalla sawaa alssabeeli
Or do you intend to ask your Messenger as Moses was asked before? And whoever exchanges faith for disbelief has certainly strayed from the soundness of the way.
وَدَّ كَثِيرࣱ مِّنۡ أَهۡلِ ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ لَوۡ يَرُدُّونَكُم مِّنۢ بَعۡدِ إِيمَٰنِكُمۡ كُفَّارًا حَسَدࣰا مِّنۡ عِندِ أَنفُسِهِم مِّنۢ بَعۡدِ مَا تَبَيَّنَ لَهُمُ ٱلۡحَقُّ ۖ فَٱعۡفُواْ وَ ٱصۡفَحُواْ حَتَّىٰ يَأۡتِيَ ٱللَّهُ بِأَمۡرِهِۦٓ ۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيۡءࣲ قَدِيرࣱ﴿١٠٩﴾
Wadda katheerun min ahli alkitabi law yaruddoonakum min baʿdi eemanikum kuffaran hasadan min ʿindi anfusihim min baʿdi ma tabayyana lahumu alhaqqu faoʿfoo waisfahoo hatta yatiya Allahu biamrihi inna Allaha ʿala kulli shayin qadeerun
Many of the People of the Scripture wish they could turn you back to disbelief after you have believed, out of envy from themselves [even] after the truth has become clear to them. So pardon and overlook until Allāh delivers His command. Indeed, Allāh is over all things competent.
وَ أَقِيمُواْ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَ ءَاتُواْ ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ ۚ وَ مَا تُقَدِّمُواْ لِأَنفُسِكُم مِّنۡ خَيۡرࣲ تَجِدُوهُ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ ۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُونَ بَصِيرࣱ﴿١١٠﴾
Waaqeemoo alssalata waatoo alzzakata wama tuqaddimoo lianfusikum min khayrin tajidoohu ʿinda Allahi inna Allaha bima taʿmaloona baseerun
And establish prayer and give zakāh, and whatever good you put forward for yourselves - you will find it with Allāh. Indeed Allāh, of what you do, is Seeing.
وَ قَالُواْ لَن يَدۡخُلَ ٱلۡجَنَّةَ إِلَّا مَن كَانَ هُودًا أَوۡ نَصَٰرَىٰ ۗ تِلۡكَ أَمَانِيُّهُمۡ ۗ قُلۡ هَاتُواْ بُرۡهَٰنَكُمۡ إِن كُنتُمۡ صَٰدِقِينَ﴿١١١﴾
Waqaloo lan yadkhula aljannata illa man kana hoodan aw nasara tilka amaniyyuhum qul hatoo burhanakum in kuntum sadiqeena
And they say, "None will enter Paradise except one who is a Jew or a Christian." That is [merely] their wishful thinking. Say, "Produce your proof, if you should be truthful."
بَلَىٰ ۚ مَنۡ أَسۡلَمَ وَجۡهَهُۥ لِلَّهِ وَ هُوَ مُحۡسِنࣱ فَلَهُۥٓ أَجۡرُهُۥ عِندَ رَبِّهِۦ وَ لَا خَوۡفٌ عَلَيۡهِمۡ وَ لَا هُمۡ يَحۡزَنُونَ﴿١١٢﴾
Bala man aslama wajhahu lillahi wahuwa muhsinun falahu ajruhu ʿinda rabbihi wala khawfun ʿalayhim wala hum yahzanoona
Yes, [on the contrary], whoever submits his face [i.e., self] in Islām to Allāh while being a doer of good will have his reward with his Lord. And no fear will there be concerning them, nor will they grieve.
وَ قَالَتِ ٱلۡيَهُودُ لَيۡسَتِ ٱلنَّصَٰرَىٰ عَلَىٰ شَيۡءࣲ وَ قَالَتِ ٱلنَّصَٰرَىٰ لَيۡسَتِ ٱلۡيَهُودُ عَلَىٰ شَيۡءࣲ وَ هُمۡ يَتۡلُونَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ ۗ كَذَٰلِكَ قَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَعۡلَمُونَ مِثۡلَ قَوۡلِهِمۡ ۚ فَٱللَّهُ يَحۡكُمُ بَيۡنَهُمۡ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِ فِيمَا كَانُواْ فِيهِ يَخۡتَلِفُونَ﴿١١٣﴾
Waqalati alyahoodu laysati alnnasara ʿala shayin waqalati alnnasara laysati alyahoodu ʿala shayin wahum yatloona alkitaba kathalika qala allatheena la yaʿlamoona mithla qawlihim faAllahu yahkumu baynahum yawma alqiyamati feema kanoo feehi yakhtalifoona
The Jews say, "The Christians have nothing [true] to stand on," and the Christians say, "The Jews have nothing to stand on," although they [both] recite the Scripture. Thus do those who know not [i.e., the polytheists] speak the same as their words. But Allāh will judge between them on the Day of Resurrection concerning that over which they used to differ.
وَ مَنۡ أَظۡلَمُ مِمَّن مَّنَعَ مَسَٰجِدَ ٱللَّهِ أَن يُذۡكَرَ فِيهَا ٱسۡمُهُۥ وَ سَعَىٰ فِي خَرَابِهَآ ۚ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ مَا كَانَ لَهُمۡ أَن يَدۡخُلُوهَآ إِلَّا خَآئِفِينَ ۚ لَهُمۡ فِي ٱلدُّنۡيَا خِزۡيࣱ وَ لَهُمۡ فِي ٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمࣱ﴿١١٤﴾
Waman athlamu mimman manaʿa masajida Allahi an yuthkara feeha ismuhu wasaʿa fee kharabiha olaika ma kana lahum an yadkhulooha illa khaifeena lahum fee alddunya khizyun walahum fee alakhirati ʿathabun ʿatheemun
And who are more unjust than those who prevent the name of Allāh from being mentioned [i.e., praised] in His mosques and strive toward their destruction. It is not for them to enter them except in fear. For them in this world is disgrace, and they will have in the Hereafter a great punishment.
وَ لِلَّهِ ٱلۡمَشۡرِقُ وَ ٱلۡمَغۡرِبُ ۚ فَأَيۡنَمَا تُوَلُّواْ فَثَمَّ وَجۡهُ ٱللَّهِ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ وَٰسِعٌ عَلِيمࣱ﴿١١٥﴾
Walillahi almashriqu waalmaghribu faaynama tuwalloo fathamma wajhu Allahi inna Allaha wasiʿun ʿaleemun
And to Allāh belongs the east and the west. So wherever you [might] turn, there is the Face of Allāh. Indeed, Allāh is all-Encompassing and Knowing.
وَ قَالُواْ ٱتَّخَذَ ٱللَّهُ وَلَدࣰا ۗ سُبۡحَٰنَهُۥ ۖ بَل لَّهُۥ مَا فِي ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَ ٱلۡأَرۡضِ ۖ كُلࣱّ لَّهُۥ قَٰنِتُونَ﴿١١٦﴾
Waqaloo itakhatha Allahu waladan subhanahu bal lahu ma fee alssamawati waalardi kullun lahu qanitoona
They say, "Allāh has taken a son." Exalted is He! Rather, to Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and the earth. All are devoutly obedient to Him,
بَدِيعُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَ ٱلۡأَرۡضِ ۖ وَ إِذَا قَضَىٰٓ أَمۡرࣰا فَإِنَّمَا يَقُولُ لَهُۥ كُن فَيَكُونُ﴿١١٧﴾
Badeeʿu alssamawati waalardi waitha qada amran fainnama yaqoolu lahu kun fayakoonu
Originator of the heavens and the earth. When He decrees a matter, He only says to it, "Be," and it is.
وَ قَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَعۡلَمُونَ لَوۡلَا يُكَلِّمُنَا ٱللَّهُ أَوۡ تَأۡتِينَآ ءَايَةࣱ ۗ كَذَٰلِكَ قَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِهِم مِّثۡلَ قَوۡلِهِمۡ ۘ تَشَٰبَهَتۡ قُلُوبُهُمۡ ۗ قَدۡ بَيَّنَّا ٱلۡأٓيَٰتِ لِقَوۡمࣲ يُوقِنُونَ﴿١١٨﴾
Waqala allatheena la yaʿlamoona lawla yukallimuna Allahu aw tateena ayatun kathalika qala allatheena min qablihim mithla qawlihim tashabahat quloobuhum qad bayyanna alayati liqawmin yooqinoona
Those who do not know say, "Why does Allāh not speak to us or there come to us a sign?" Thus spoke those before them like their words. Their hearts resemble each other. We have shown clearly the signs to a people who are certain [in faith].
إِنَّآ أَرۡسَلۡنَٰكَ بِٱلۡحَقِّ بَشِيرࣰا وَ نَذِيرࣰا ۖ وَ لَا تُسۡـَٔلُ عَنۡ أَصۡحَٰبِ ٱلۡجَحِيمِ﴿١١٩﴾
Inna arsalnaka bialhaqqi basheeran wanatheeran wala tusalu Aaan ashabi aljaheemi
Indeed, We have sent you, [O Muḥammad], with the truth as a bringer of good tidings and a warner, and you will not be asked about the companions of Hellfire.
وَ لَن تَرۡضَىٰ عَنكَ ٱلۡيَهُودُ وَ لَا ٱلنَّصَٰرَىٰ حَتَّىٰ تَتَّبِعَ مِلَّتَهُمۡ ۗ قُلۡ إِنَّ هُدَى ٱللَّهِ هُوَ ٱلۡهُدَىٰ ۗ وَ لَئِنِ ٱتَّبَعۡتَ أَهۡوَآءَهُم بَعۡدَ ٱلَّذِي جَآءَكَ مِنَ ٱلۡعِلۡمِ مَا لَكَ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ مِن وَلِيࣲّ وَ لَا نَصِيرٍ﴿١٢٠﴾
Walan tarda ʿanka alyahoodu wala alnnasara hatta tattabiʿa millatahum qul inna huda Allahi huwa alhuda walaini ittabaʿta ahwaahum baʿda allathee jaaka mina alʿilmi ma laka mina Allahi min waliyyin wala naseerin
And never will the Jews and the Christians approve of you until you follow their religion. Say, "Indeed, the guidance of Allāh is the [only] guidance." If you were to follow their desires after what has come to you of knowledge, you would have against Allāh no protector or helper.
ٱلَّذِينَ ءَاتَيۡنَٰهُمُ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ يَتۡلُونَهُۥ حَقَّ تِلَاوَتِهِۦٓ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ يُؤۡمِنُونَ بِهِۦ ۗ وَ مَن يَكۡفُرۡ بِهِۦ فَأُوْلَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلۡخَٰسِرُونَ﴿١٢١﴾
Allatheena ataynahumu alkitaba yatloonahu haqqa tilawatihi olaika yuminoona bihi waman yakfur bihi faolaika humu alkhasiroona
Those to whom We have given the Book recite it with its true recital. They [are the ones who] believe in it. And whoever disbelieves in it - it is they who are the losers.
يَٰبَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ ٱذۡكُرُواْ نِعۡمَتِيَ ٱلَّتِيٓ أَنۡعَمۡتُ عَلَيۡكُمۡ وَ أَنِّي فَضَّلۡتُكُمۡ عَلَى ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ﴿١٢٢﴾
Ya banee israeela othkuroo niʿmatiya allatee anʿamtu ʿalaykum waannee faddaltukum ʿala alʿalameena
O Children of Israel, remember My favor which I have bestowed upon you and that I preferred you over the worlds.
وَ ٱتَّقُواْ يَوۡمࣰا لَّا تَجۡزِي نَفۡسٌ عَن نَّفۡسࣲ شَيۡـࣰٔا وَ لَا يُقۡبَلُ مِنۡهَا عَدۡلࣱ وَ لَا تَنفَعُهَا شَفَٰعَةࣱ وَ لَا هُمۡ يُنصَرُونَ﴿١٢٣﴾
Waittaqoo yawman la tajzee nafsun ʿan nafsin shayan wala yuqbalu minha ʿadlun wala tanfaʿuha shafaʿatun wala hum yunsaroona
And fear a Day when no soul will suffice for another soul at all, and no compensation will be accepted from it, nor will any intercession benefit it, nor will they be aided.
وَ إِذِ ٱبۡتَلَىٰٓ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمَ رَبُّهُۥ بِكَلِمَٰتࣲ فَأَتَمَّهُنَّ ۖ قَالَ إِنِّي جَاعِلُكَ لِلنَّاسِ إِمَامࣰا ۖ قَالَ وَ مِن ذُرِّيَّتِي ۖ قَالَ لَا يَنَالُ عَهۡدِي ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ﴿١٢٤﴾
Waithi ibtala ibraheema rabbuhu bikalimatin faatammahunna qala innee jaʿiluka lilnnasi imaman qala wamin thurriyyatee qala la yanalu ʿahdee alththalimeena
And [mention, O Muḥammad], when Abraham was tried by his Lord with words [i.e., commands] and he fulfilled them. [Allāh] said, "Indeed, I will make you a leader for the people." [Abraham] said, "And of my descendants?" [Allāh] said, "My covenant does not include the wrongdoers."
وَ إِذۡ جَعَلۡنَا ٱلۡبَيۡتَ مَثَابَةࣰ لِّلنَّاسِ وَ أَمۡنࣰا وَ ٱتَّخِذُواْ مِن مَّقَامِ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمَ مُصَلࣰّى ۖ وَ عَهِدۡنَآ إِلَىٰٓ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمَ وَ إِسۡمَٰعِيلَ أَن طَهِّرَا بَيۡتِيَ لِلطَّآئِفِينَ وَ ٱلۡعَٰكِفِينَ وَ ٱلرُّكَّعِ ٱلسُّجُودِ﴿١٢٥﴾

And [mention] when We made the House [i.e., the Kaʿbah] a place of return for the people and [a place of] security. And take, [O believers], from the standing place of Abraham a place of prayer. And We charged Abraham and Ishmael, [saying], "Purify My House for those who perform ṭawāf and those who are staying [there] for worship and those who bow and prostrate [in prayer]."
وَ إِذۡ قَالَ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمُ رَبِّ ٱجۡعَلۡ هَٰذَا بَلَدًا ءَامِنࣰا وَ ٱرۡزُقۡ أَهۡلَهُۥ مِنَ ٱلثَّمَرَٰتِ مَنۡ ءَامَنَ مِنۡهُم بِٱللَّهِ وَ ٱلۡيَوۡمِ ٱلۡأٓخِرِ ۚ قَالَ وَ مَن كَفَرَ فَأُمَتِّعُهُۥ قَلِيلࣰا ثُمَّ أَضۡطَرُّهُۥٓ إِلَىٰ عَذَابِ ٱلنَّارِ ۖ وَ بِئۡسَ ٱلۡمَصِيرُ﴿١٢٦﴾

And [mention] when Abraham said, "My Lord, make this a secure city and provide its people with fruits - whoever of them believes in Allāh and the Last Day." [Allāh] said, "And whoever disbelieves - I will grant him enjoyment for a little; then I will force him to the punishment of the Fire, and wretched is the destination."
وَ إِذۡ يَرۡفَعُ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمُ ٱلۡقَوَاعِدَ مِنَ ٱلۡبَيۡتِ وَ إِسۡمَٰعِيلُ رَبَّنَا تَقَبَّلۡ مِنَّآ ۖ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلۡعَلِيمُ﴿١٢٧﴾
Waith yarfaʿu ibraheemu alqawaʿida mina albayti waismaʿeelu rabbana taqabbal minna innaka anta alssameeʿu alʿaleemu
And [mention] when Abraham was raising the foundations of the House and [with him] Ishmael, [saying], "Our Lord, accept [this] from us. Indeed, You are the Hearing, the Knowing.
رَبَّنَا وَ ٱجۡعَلۡنَا مُسۡلِمَيۡنِ لَكَ وَ مِن ذُرِّيَّتِنَآ أُمَّةࣰ مُّسۡلِمَةࣰ لَّكَ وَ أَرِنَا مَنَاسِكَنَا وَ تُبۡ عَلَيۡنَآ ۖ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ ٱلتَّوَّابُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ﴿١٢٨﴾
Rabbana waijʿalna muslimayni laka wamin thurriyyatina ommatan muslimatan laka waarina manasikana watub ʿalayna innaka anta alttawwabu alrraheemu
Our Lord, and make us Muslims [in submission] to You and from our descendants a Muslim nation [in submission] to You. And show us our rites [of worship] and accept our repentance. Indeed, You are the Accepting of Repentance, the Merciful.
رَبَّنَا وَ ٱبۡعَثۡ فِيهِمۡ رَسُولࣰا مِّنۡهُمۡ يَتۡلُواْ عَلَيۡهِمۡ ءَايَٰتِكَ وَ يُعَلِّمُهُمُ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ وَ ٱلۡحِكۡمَةَ وَ يُزَكِّيهِمۡ ۖ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلۡحَكِيمُ﴿١٢٩﴾
Rabbana waibʿath feehim rasoolan minhum yatloo ʿalayhim ayatika wayuʿallimuhumu alkitaba waalhikmata wayuzakkeehim innaka anta alʿazeezu alhakeemu
Our Lord, and send among them a messenger from themselves who will recite to them Your verses and teach them the Book and wisdom and purify them. Indeed, You are the Exalted in Might, the Wise."
وَ مَن يَرۡغَبُ عَن مِّلَّةِ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمَ إِلَّا مَن سَفِهَ نَفۡسَهُۥ ۚ وَ لَقَدِ ٱصۡطَفَيۡنَٰهُ فِي ٱلدُّنۡيَا ۖ وَ إِنَّهُۥ فِي ٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ لَمِنَ ٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ﴿١٣٠﴾
Waman yarghabu ʿan millati ibraheema illa man safiha nafsahu walaqadi istafaynahu fee alddunya wainnahu fee alakhirati lamina alssaliheena
And who would be averse to the religion of Abraham except one who makes a fool of himself. And We had chosen him in this world, and indeed he, in the Hereafter, will be among the righteous.
إِذۡ قَالَ لَهُۥ رَبُّهُۥٓ أَسۡلِمۡ ۖ قَالَ أَسۡلَمۡتُ لِرَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ﴿١٣١﴾
Ith qala lahu rabbuhu aslim qala aslamtu lirabbi alʿalameena
When his Lord said to him, "Submit," he said, "I have submitted [in Islām] to the Lord of the worlds."
وَ وَصَّىٰ بِهَآ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمُ بَنِيهِ وَ يَعۡقُوبُ يَٰبَنِيَّ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ ٱصۡطَفَىٰ لَكُمُ ٱلدِّينَ فَلَا تَمُوتُنَّ إِلَّا وَ أَنتُم مُّسۡلِمُونَ﴿١٣٢﴾
Wawassa biha ibraheemu baneehi wayaʿqoobu ya baniyya inna Allaha istafa lakumu alddeena fala tamootunna illa waantum muslimoona
And Abraham instructed his sons [to do the same] and [so did] Jacob, [saying], "O my sons, indeed Allāh has chosen for you this religion, so do not die except while you are Muslims."
أَمۡ كُنتُمۡ شُهَدَآءَ إِذۡ حَضَرَ يَعۡقُوبَ ٱلۡمَوۡتُ إِذۡ قَالَ لِبَنِيهِ مَا تَعۡبُدُونَ مِنۢ بَعۡدِي ۖ قَالُواْ نَعۡبُدُ إِلَٰهَكَ وَ إِلَٰهَ ءَابَآئِكَ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمَ وَ إِسۡمَٰعِيلَ وَ إِسۡحَٰقَ إِلَٰهࣰا وَٰحِدࣰا وَ نَحۡنُ لَهُۥ مُسۡلِمُونَ﴿١٣٣﴾

Or were you witnesses when death approached Jacob, when he said to his sons, "What will you worship after me?" They said, "We will worship your God and the God of your fathers, Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac - one God. And we are Muslims [in submission] to Him."
تِلۡكَ أُمَّةࣱ قَدۡ خَلَتۡ ۖ لَهَا مَا كَسَبَتۡ وَ لَكُم مَّا كَسَبۡتُمۡ ۖ وَ لَا تُسۡـَٔلُونَ عَمَّا كَانُواْ يَعۡمَلُونَ﴿١٣٤﴾
Tilka ommatun qad khalat laha ma kasabat walakum ma kasabtum wala tusaloona ʿamma kano yaʿmaloona
That was a nation which has passed on. It will have [the consequence of] what it earned, and you will have what you have earned. And you will not be asked about what they used to do.
وَ قَالُواْ كُونُواْ هُودًا أَوۡ نَصَٰرَىٰ تَهۡتَدُواْ ۗ قُلۡ بَلۡ مِلَّةَ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمَ حَنِيفࣰا ۖ وَ مَا كَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُشۡرِكِينَ﴿١٣٥﴾
Waqaloo koonoo hoodan aw nasara tahtadoo qul bal millata ibraheema haneefan wama kana mina almushrikeena
They say, "Be Jews or Christians [so] you will be guided." Say, "Rather, [we follow] the religion of Abraham, inclining toward truth, and he was not of the polytheists."
قُولُوٓاْ ءَامَنَّا بِٱللَّهِ وَ مَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيۡنَا وَ مَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَىٰٓ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمَ وَ إِسۡمَٰعِيلَ وَ إِسۡحَٰقَ وَ يَعۡقُوبَ وَ ٱلۡأَسۡبَاطِ وَ مَآ أُوتِيَ مُوسَىٰ وَ عِيسَىٰ وَ مَآ أُوتِيَ ٱلنَّبِيُّونَ مِن رَّبِّهِمۡ لَا نُفَرِّقُ بَيۡنَ أَحَدࣲ مِّنۡهُمۡ وَ نَحۡنُ لَهُۥ مُسۡلِمُونَ﴿١٣٦﴾

Say, [O believers], "We have believed in Allāh and what has been revealed to us and what has been revealed to Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob and the Descendants [al-Asbāṭ] and what was given to Moses and Jesus and what was given to the prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and we are Muslims [in submission] to Him."
فَإِنۡ ءَامَنُواْ بِمِثۡلِ مَآ ءَامَنتُم بِهِۦ فَقَدِ ٱهۡتَدَواْ ۖ وَّ إِن تَوَلَّوۡاْ فَإِنَّمَا هُمۡ فِي شِقَاقࣲ ۖ فَسَيَكۡفِيكَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ ۚ وَ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلۡعَلِيمُ﴿١٣٧﴾
Fain amanoo bimithli ma amantum bihi faqadi ihtadaw wain tawallaw fainnama hum fee shiqaqin fasayakfeekahumu Allahu wahuwa alssameeʿu alʿaleemu
So if they believe in the same as you believe in, then they have been [rightly] guided; but if they turn away, they are only in dissension, and Allāh will be sufficient for you against them. And He is the Hearing, the Knowing.
صِبۡغَةَ ٱللَّهِ وَ مَنۡ أَحۡسَنُ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ صِبۡغَةࣰ ۖ وَ نَحۡنُ لَهُۥ عَٰبِدُونَ﴿١٣٨﴾
Sibghata Allahi waman ahsanu mina Allahi sibghatan wanahnu lahu ʿabidoona
[And say, "Ours is] the religion of Allāh. And who is better than Allāh in [ordaining] religion? And we are worshippers of Him."
قُلۡ أَتُحَآجُّونَنَا فِي ٱللَّهِ وَ هُوَ رَبُّنَا وَ رَبُّكُمۡ وَ لَنَآ أَعۡمَٰلُنَا وَ لَكُمۡ أَعۡمَٰلُكُمۡ وَ نَحۡنُ لَهُۥ مُخۡلِصُونَ﴿١٣٩﴾
Qul atuhajjoonana fee Allahi wahuwa rabbuna warabbukum walana aʿmaluna walakum aʿmalukum wanahnu lahu mukhlisoona
Say, [O Muḥammad], "Do you argue with us about Allāh while He is our Lord and your Lord? For us are our deeds, and for you are your deeds. And we are sincere [in deed and intention] to Him."
أَمۡ تَقُولُونَ إِنَّ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمَ وَ إِسۡمَٰعِيلَ وَ إِسۡحَٰقَ وَ يَعۡقُوبَ وَ ٱلۡأَسۡبَاطَ كَانُواْ هُودًا أَوۡ نَصَٰرَىٰ ۗ قُلۡ ءَأَنتُمۡ أَعۡلَمُ أَمِ ٱللَّهُ ۗ وَ مَنۡ أَظۡلَمُ مِمَّن كَتَمَ شَهَٰدَةً عِندَهُۥ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ ۗ وَ مَا ٱللَّهُ بِغَٰفِلٍ عَمَّا تَعۡمَلُونَ﴿١٤٠﴾

Or do you say that Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob and the Descendants were Jews or Christians? Say, "Are you more knowing or is Allāh?" And who is more unjust than one who conceals a testimony he has from Allāh? And Allāh is not unaware of what you do.
تِلۡكَ أُمَّةࣱ قَدۡ خَلَتۡ ۖ لَهَا مَا كَسَبَتۡ وَ لَكُم مَّا كَسَبۡتُمۡ ۖ وَ لَا تُسۡـَٔلُونَ عَمَّا كَانُواْ يَعۡمَلُونَ﴿١٤١﴾
Tilka ommatun qad khalat laha ma kasabat walakum ma kasabtum wala tusaloona ʿamma kanoo yaʿmaloona
That is a nation which has passed on. It will have [the consequence of] what it earned, and you will have what you have earned. And you will not be asked about what they used to do.
سَيَقُولُ ٱلسُّفَهَآءُ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَا وَلَّىٰهُمۡ عَن قِبۡلَتِهِمُ ٱلَّتِي كَانُواْ عَلَيۡهَا ۚ قُل لِّلَّهِ ٱلۡمَشۡرِقُ وَ ٱلۡمَغۡرِبُ ۚ يَهۡدِي مَن يَشَآءُ إِلَىٰ صِرَٰطࣲ مُّسۡتَقِيمࣲ﴿١٤٢﴾
Sayaqoolu alssufahao mina alnnasi ma wallahum ʿan qiblatihimu allatee kanoo ʿalayha qul lillahi almashriqu waalmaghribu yahdee man yashao ila siratin mustaqeemin
The foolish among the people will say, "What has turned them away from their qiblah, which they used to face?" Say, "To Allāh belongs the east and the west. He guides whom He wills to a straight path."
وَ كَذَٰلِكَ جَعَلۡنَٰكُمۡ أُمَّةࣰ وَسَطࣰا لِّتَكُونُواْ شُهَدَآءَ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ وَ يَكُونَ ٱلرَّسُولُ عَلَيۡكُمۡ شَهِيدࣰا ۗ وَ مَا جَعَلۡنَا ٱلۡقِبۡلَةَ ٱلَّتِي كُنتَ عَلَيۡهَآ إِلَّا لِنَعۡلَمَ مَن يَتَّبِعُ ٱلرَّسُولَ مِمَّن يَنقَلِبُ عَلَىٰ عَقِبَيۡهِ ۚ وَ إِن كَانَتۡ لَكَبِيرَةً إِلَّا عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ هَدَى ٱللَّهُ ۗ وَ مَا كَانَ ٱللَّهُ لِيُضِيعَ إِيمَٰنَكُمۡ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ بِٱلنَّاسِ لَرَءُوفࣱ رَّحِيمࣱ﴿١٤٣﴾
Wakathalika jaʿalnakum ommatan wasatan litakoonoo shuhadaa ʿala alnnasi wayakoona alrrasoolu ʿalaykum shaheedan wama jaʿalna alqiblata allatee kunta ʿalayha illa linaʿlama man yattabiʿu alrrasoola mimman yanqalibu ʿala ʿaqibayhi wain kanat lakabeeratan illa ʿala allatheena hada Allahu wama kana Allahu liyudeeʿa eemanakum inna Allaha bialnnasi laraoofun raheemun
And thus We have made you a median [i.e., just] community that you will be witnesses over the people and the Messenger will be a witness over you. And We did not make the qiblah which you used to face except that We might make evident who would follow the Messenger from who would turn back on his heels. And indeed, it is difficult except for those whom Allāh has guided. And never would Allāh have caused you to lose your faith [i.e., your previous prayers]. Indeed Allāh is, to the people, Kind and Merciful.
قَدۡ نَرَىٰ تَقَلُّبَ وَجۡهِكَ فِي ٱلسَّمَآءِ ۖ فَلَنُوَلِّيَنَّكَ قِبۡلَةࣰ تَرۡضَىٰهَا ۚ فَوَلِّ وَجۡهَكَ شَطۡرَ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ ۚ وَ حَيۡثُ مَا كُنتُمۡ فَوَلُّواْ وُجُوهَكُمۡ شَطۡرَهُۥ ۗ وَ إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُواْ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ لَيَعۡلَمُونَ أَنَّهُ ٱلۡحَقُّ مِن رَّبِّهِمۡ ۗ وَ مَا ٱللَّهُ بِغَٰفِلٍ عَمَّا يَعۡمَلُونَ﴿١٤٤﴾
Qad nara taqalluba wajhika fee alssamai falanuwalliyannaka qiblatan tardaha fawalli wajhaka shatra almasjidi alharami wahaythu ma kuntum fawalloo wujoohakum shatrahu wainna allatheena ootoo alkitaba layaʿlamoona annahu alhaqqu min rabbihim wama Allahu bighafilin ʿamma yaʿmaloona
We have certainly seen the turning of your face, [O Muḥammad], toward the heaven, and We will surely turn you to a qiblah with which you will be pleased. So turn your face [i.e., yourself] toward al-Masjid al-Ḥarām. And wherever you [believers] are, turn your faces [i.e., yourselves] toward it [in prayer]. Indeed, those who have been given the Scripture [i.e., the Jews and the Christians] well know that it is the truth from their Lord. And Allāh is not unaware of what they do.
وَ لَئِنۡ أَتَيۡتَ ٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُواْ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ بِكُلِّ ءَايَةࣲ مَّا تَبِعُواْ قِبۡلَتَكَ ۚ وَ مَآ أَنتَ بِتَابِعࣲ قِبۡلَتَهُمۡ ۚ وَ مَا بَعۡضُهُم بِتَابِعࣲ قِبۡلَةَ بَعۡضࣲ ۚ وَ لَئِنِ ٱتَّبَعۡتَ أَهۡوَآءَهُم مِّنۢ بَعۡدِ مَا جَآءَكَ مِنَ ٱلۡعِلۡمِ إِنَّكَ إِذࣰا لَّمِنَ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ﴿١٤٥﴾
Walain atayta allatheena ootoo alkitaba bikulli ayatin ma tabiʿoo qiblataka wama anta bitabiʿin qiblatahum wama baʿduhum bitabiʿin qiblata baʿdin walaini ittabaʿta ahwaahum min baʿdi ma jaaka mina alʿilmi innaka ithan lamina alththalimeena
And if you brought to those who were given the Scripture every sign, they would not follow your qiblah. Nor will you be a follower of their qiblah. Nor would they be followers of one another's qiblah. So if you were to follow their desires after what has come to you of knowledge, indeed, you would then be among the wrongdoers.
ٱلَّذِينَ ءَاتَيۡنَٰهُمُ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ يَعۡرِفُونَهُۥ كَمَا يَعۡرِفُونَ أَبۡنَآءَهُمۡ ۖ وَ إِنَّ فَرِيقࣰا مِّنۡهُمۡ لَيَكۡتُمُونَ ٱلۡحَقَّ وَ هُمۡ يَعۡلَمُونَ﴿١٤٦﴾
Allatheena ataynahumu alkitaba yaʿrifoonahu kama yaʿrifoona abnaahum wainna fareeqan minhum layaktumoona alhaqqa wahum yaʿlamoona
Those to whom We gave the Scripture know him [i.e., Prophet Muḥammad (ﷺ)] as they know their own sons. But indeed, a party of them conceal the truth while they know [it].
ٱلۡحَقُّ مِن رَّبِّكَ فَلَا تَكُونَنَّ مِنَ ٱلۡمُمۡتَرِينَ﴿١٤٧﴾
Alhaqqu min rabbika fala takoonanna mina almumtareena
The truth is from your Lord, so never be among the doubters.
وَ لِكُلࣲّ وِجۡهَةٌ هُوَ مُوَلِّيهَا ۖ فَٱسۡتَبِقُواْ ٱلۡخَيۡرَٰتِ ۚ أَيۡنَ مَا تَكُونُواْ يَأۡتِ بِكُمُ ٱللَّهُ جَمِيعًا ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيۡءࣲ قَدِيرࣱ﴿١٤٨﴾
Walikullin wijhatun huwa muwalleeha faistabiqoo alkhayrati ayna ma takoonoo yati bikumu Allahu jameeʿan inna Allaha ʿala kulli shayin qadeerun
For each [religious following] is a [prayer] direction toward which it faces. So race to [all that is] good. Wherever you may be, Allāh will bring you forth [for judgement] all together. Indeed, Allāh is over all things competent.
وَ مِنۡ حَيۡثُ خَرَجۡتَ فَوَلِّ وَجۡهَكَ شَطۡرَ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ ۖ وَ إِنَّهُۥ لَلۡحَقُّ مِن رَّبِّكَ ۗ وَ مَا ٱللَّهُ بِغَٰفِلٍ عَمَّا تَعۡمَلُونَ﴿١٤٩﴾
Wamin haythu kharajta fawalli wajhaka shatra almasjidi alharami wainnahu lalhaqqu min rabbika wama Allahu bighafilin ʿamma taʿmaloona
So from wherever you go out [for prayer, O Muḥammad], turn your face toward al-Masjid al-Ḥarām, and indeed, it is the truth from your Lord. And Allāh is not unaware of what you do.
وَ مِنۡ حَيۡثُ خَرَجۡتَ فَوَلِّ وَجۡهَكَ شَطۡرَ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ ۚ وَ حَيۡثُ مَا كُنتُمۡ فَوَلُّواْ وُجُوهَكُمۡ شَطۡرَهُۥ لِئَلَّا يَكُونَ لِلنَّاسِ عَلَيۡكُمۡ حُجَّةٌ إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ مِنۡهُمۡ فَلَا تَخۡشَوۡهُمۡ وَ ٱخۡشَوۡنِي وَ لِأُتِمَّ نِعۡمَتِي عَلَيۡكُمۡ وَ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَهۡتَدُونَ﴿١٥٠﴾
Wamin haythu kharajta fawalli wajhaka shatra almasjidi alharami wahaythu ma kuntum fawalloo wujoohakum shatrahu lialla yakoona lilnnasi ʿalaykum hujjatun illa allatheena thalamoo minhum fala takhshawhum waikhshawnee waliotimma niʿmatee ʿalaykum walaʿallakum tahtadoona
And from wherever you go out [for prayer], turn your face toward al-Masjid al-Ḥarām. And wherever you [believers] may be, turn your faces toward it in order that the people will not have any argument against you, except for those of them who commit wrong; so fear them not but fear Me. And [it is] so I may complete My favor upon you and that you may be guided,
كَمَآ أَرۡسَلۡنَا فِيكُمۡ رَسُولࣰا مِّنكُمۡ يَتۡلُواْ عَلَيۡكُمۡ ءَايَٰتِنَا وَ يُزَكِّيكُمۡ وَ يُعَلِّمُكُمُ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ وَ ٱلۡحِكۡمَةَ وَ يُعَلِّمُكُم مَّا لَمۡ تَكُونُواْ تَعۡلَمُونَ﴿١٥١﴾
Kama arsalna feekum rasoolan minkum yatloo ʿalaykum ayatina wayuzakkeekum wayuʿallimukumu alkitaba waalhikmata wayuʿallimukum ma lam takoonoo taʿlamoona
Just as We have sent among you a messenger from yourselves reciting to you Our verses and purifying you and teaching you the Book and wisdom and teaching you that which you did not know.
فَٱذۡكُرُونِيٓ أَذۡكُرۡكُمۡ وَ ٱشۡكُرُواْ لِي وَ لَا تَكۡفُرُونِ﴿١٥٢﴾
Faothkuroonee athkurkum waoshkuroo lee wala takfurooni
So remember Me; I will remember you. And be grateful to Me and do not deny Me.
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ ٱسۡتَعِينُواْ بِٱلصَّبۡرِ وَ ٱلصَّلَوٰةِ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ مَعَ ٱلصَّٰبِرِينَ﴿١٥٣﴾
Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo istaʿeenoo bialssabri waalssalati inna Allaha maʿa alssabireena
O you who have believed, seek help through patience and prayer. Indeed, Allāh is with the patient.
وَ لَا تَقُولُواْ لِمَن يُقۡتَلُ فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ أَمۡوَٰتُۢ ۚ بَلۡ أَحۡيَآءࣱ وَ لَٰكِن لَّا تَشۡعُرُونَ﴿١٥٤﴾
Wala taqooloo liman yuqtalu fee sabeeli Allahi amwatun bal ahyaon walakin la tashʿuroona
And do not say about those who are killed in the way of Allāh, "They are dead." Rather, they are alive, but you perceive [it] not.
وَ لَنَبۡلُوَنَّكُم بِشَيۡءࣲ مِّنَ ٱلۡخَوۡفِ وَ ٱلۡجُوعِ وَ نَقۡصࣲ مِّنَ ٱلۡأَمۡوَٰلِ وَ ٱلۡأَنفُسِ وَ ٱلثَّمَرَٰتِ ۗ وَ بَشِّرِ ٱلصَّٰبِرِينَ﴿١٥٥﴾
Walanabluwannakum bishayin mina alkhawfi waaljooʿi wanaqsin mina alamwali waalanfusi waalththamarati wabashshiri alssabireena
And We will surely test you with something of fear and hunger and a loss of wealth and lives and fruits, but give good tidings to the patient,
ٱلَّذِينَ إِذَآ أَصَٰبَتۡهُم مُّصِيبَةࣱ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَ إِنَّآ إِلَيۡهِ رَٰجِعُونَ﴿١٥٦﴾
Allatheena itha asabathum museebatun qaloo inna lillahi wainna ilayhi rajiʿoona
Who, when disaster strikes them, say, "Indeed we belong to Allāh, and indeed to Him we will return."
أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ صَلَوَٰتࣱ مِّن رَّبِّهِمۡ وَ رَحۡمَةࣱ ۖ وَ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلۡمُهۡتَدُونَ﴿١٥٧﴾
Olaika ʿalayhim salawatun min rabbihim warahmatun waolaika humu almuhtadoona
Those are the ones upon whom are blessings from their Lord and mercy. And it is those who are the [rightly] guided.
إِنَّ ٱلصَّفَا وَ ٱلۡمَرۡوَةَ مِن شَعَآئِرِ ٱللَّهِ ۖ فَمَنۡ حَجَّ ٱلۡبَيۡتَ أَوِ ٱعۡتَمَرَ فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيۡهِ أَن يَطَّوَّفَ بِهِمَا ۚ وَ مَن تَطَوَّعَ خَيۡرࣰا فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ شَاكِرٌ عَلِيمٌ﴿١٥٨﴾
Inna alssafa waalmarwata min shaʿairi Allahi faman hajja albayta awi iʿtamara fala junaha ʿalayhi an yattawwafa bihima waman tatawwaʿa khayran fainna Allaha shakirun ʿaleemun
Indeed, aṣ-Ṣafā and al-Marwah are among the symbols of Allāh. So whoever makes ḥajj [pilgrimage] to the House or performs ʿumrah - there is no blame upon him for walking between them. And whoever volunteers good - then indeed, Allāh is Appreciative and Knowing.
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَكۡتُمُونَ مَآ أَنزَلۡنَا مِنَ ٱلۡبَيِّنَٰتِ وَ ٱلۡهُدَىٰ مِنۢ بَعۡدِ مَا بَيَّنَّٰهُ لِلنَّاسِ فِي ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ يَلۡعَنُهُمُ ٱللَّهُ وَ يَلۡعَنُهُمُ ٱللَّٰعِنُونَ﴿١٥٩﴾
Inna allatheena yaktumoona ma anzalna mina albayyinati waalhuda min baʿdi ma bayyannahu lilnnasi fee alkitabi olaika yalʿanuhumu Allahu wayalʿanuhumu allaʿinoona
Indeed, those who conceal what We sent down of clear proofs and guidance after We made it clear for the people in the Scripture - those are cursed by Allāh and cursed by those who curse,
إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ تَابُواْ وَ أَصۡلَحُواْ وَ بَيَّنُواْ فَأُوْلَٰٓئِكَ أَتُوبُ عَلَيۡهِمۡ وَ أَنَا ٱلتَّوَّابُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ﴿١٦٠﴾
Illa allatheena taboo waaslahoo wabayyanoo faolaika atoobu ʿalayhim waana alttawwabu alrraheemu
Except for those who repent and correct themselves and make evident [what they concealed]. Those - I will accept their repentance, and I am the Accepting of Repentance, the Merciful.
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ وَ مَاتُواْ وَ هُمۡ كُفَّارٌ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ لَعۡنَةُ ٱللَّهِ وَ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةِ وَ ٱلنَّاسِ أَجۡمَعِينَ﴿١٦١﴾
Inna allatheena kafaroo wamatoo wahum kuffarun olaika ʿalayhim laʿnatu Allahi waalmalaikati waalnnasi ajmaʿeena
Indeed, those who disbelieve and die while they are disbelievers - upon them will be the curse of Allāh and of the angels and the people, all together,
خَٰلِدِينَ فِيهَا لَا يُخَفَّفُ عَنۡهُمُ ٱلۡعَذَابُ وَ لَا هُمۡ يُنظَرُونَ﴿١٦٢﴾
Khalideena feeha la yukhaffafu ʿanhumu alʿathabu wala hum yuntharoona
Abiding eternally therein. The punishment will not be lightened for them, nor will they be reprieved.
وَ إِلَٰهُكُمۡ إِلَٰهࣱ وَٰحِدࣱ ۖ لَّآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ﴿١٦٣﴾
Wailahukum ilahun wahidun la ilaha illa huwa alrrahmanu alrraheemu
And your god is one God. There is no deity [worthy of worship] except Him, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful.
إِنَّ فِي خَلۡقِ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَ ٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَ ٱخۡتِلَٰفِ ٱلَّيۡلِ وَ ٱلنَّهَارِ وَ ٱلۡفُلۡكِ ٱلَّتِي تَجۡرِي فِي ٱلۡبَحۡرِ بِمَا يَنفَعُ ٱلنَّاسَ وَ مَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مِن مَّآءࣲ فَأَحۡيَا بِهِ ٱلۡأَرۡضَ بَعۡدَ مَوۡتِهَا وَ بَثَّ فِيهَا مِن كُلِّ دَآبَّةࣲ وَ تَصۡرِيفِ ٱلرِّيَٰحِ وَ ٱلسَّحَابِ ٱلۡمُسَخَّرِ بَيۡنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَ ٱلۡأَرۡضِ لَأٓيَٰتࣲ لِّقَوۡمࣲ يَعۡقِلُونَ﴿١٦٤﴾

Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the alternation of the night and the day, and the [great] ships which sail through the sea with that which benefits people, and what Allāh has sent down from the heavens of rain, giving life thereby to the earth after its lifelessness and dispersing therein every [kind of] moving creature, and [His] directing of the winds and the clouds controlled between the heaven and earth are signs for a people who use reason.
وَ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن يَتَّخِذُ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ أَندَادࣰا يُحِبُّونَهُمۡ كَحُبِّ ٱللَّهِ ۖ وَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ أَشَدُّ حُبࣰّا لِّلَّهِ ۗ وَ لَوۡ يَرَى ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوٓاْ إِذۡ يَرَوۡنَ ٱلۡعَذَابَ أَنَّ ٱلۡقُوَّةَ لِلَّهِ جَمِيعࣰا وَ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ شَدِيدُ ٱلۡعَذَابِ﴿١٦٥﴾

And [yet], among the people are those who take other than Allāh as equals [to Him]. They love them as they [should] love Allāh. But those who believe are stronger in love for Allāh. And if only they who have wronged would consider [that] when they see the punishment, [they will be certain] that all power belongs to Allāh and that Allāh is severe in punishment.
إِذۡ تَبَرَّأَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتُّبِعُواْ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّبَعُواْ وَ رَأَوُاْ ٱلۡعَذَابَ وَ تَقَطَّعَتۡ بِهِمُ ٱلۡأَسۡبَابُ﴿١٦٦﴾
Ith tabarraa allatheena ittubiʿoo mina allatheena ittabaʿoo waraawoo alʿathaba wataqattaʿat bihimu alasbabu
[And they should consider that] when those who have been followed disassociate themselves from those who followed [them], and they [all] see the punishment, and cut off from them are the ties [of relationship],
وَ قَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّبَعُواْ لَوۡ أَنَّ لَنَا كَرَّةࣰ فَنَتَبَرَّأَ مِنۡهُمۡ كَمَا تَبَرَّءُواْ مِنَّا ۗ كَذَٰلِكَ يُرِيهِمُ ٱللَّهُ أَعۡمَٰلَهُمۡ حَسَرَٰتٍ عَلَيۡهِمۡ ۖ وَ مَا هُم بِخَٰرِجِينَ مِنَ ٱلنَّارِ﴿١٦٧﴾
Waqala allatheena ittabaʿoo law anna lana karratan fanatabarraa minhum kama tabarraoo minna kathalika yureehimu Allahu aʿmalahum hasaratin ʿalayhim wama hum bikharijeena mina alnnari
Those who followed will say, "If only we had another turn [at worldly life] so we could disassociate ourselves from them as they have disassociated themselves from us." Thus will Allāh show them their deeds as regrets upon them. And they are never to emerge from the Fire.
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاسُ كُلُواْ مِمَّا فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ حَلَٰلࣰا طَيِّبࣰا وَ لَا تَتَّبِعُواْ خُطُوَٰتِ ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنِ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ لَكُمۡ عَدُوࣱّ مُّبِينٌ﴿١٦٨﴾
Ya ayyuha alnnasu kuloo mimma fee alardi halalan tayyiban wala tattabiʿoo khutuwati alshshaytani innahu lakum ʿaduwwun mubeenun
O mankind, eat from whatever is on earth [that is] lawful and good and do not follow the footsteps of Satan. Indeed, he is to you a clear enemy.
إِنَّمَا يَأۡمُرُكُم بِٱلسُّوٓءِ وَ ٱلۡفَحۡشَآءِ وَ أَن تَقُولُواْ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ مَا لَا تَعۡلَمُونَ﴿١٦٩﴾
Innama yamurukum bialssooi waalfahshai waan taqooloo ʿala Allahi ma la taʿlamoona
He only orders you to evil and immorality and to say about Allāh what you do not know.
وَ إِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ ٱتَّبِعُواْ مَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ قَالُواْ بَلۡ نَتَّبِعُ مَآ أَلۡفَيۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ ءَابَآءَنَآ ۚ أَوَلَوۡ كَانَ ءَابَآؤُهُمۡ لَا يَعۡقِلُونَ شَيۡـࣰٔا وَ لَا يَهۡتَدُونَ﴿١٧٠﴾
Waitha qeela lahumu ittabiʿoo ma anzala Allahu qaloo bal nattabiʿu ma alfayna ʿalayhi abaana awalaw kana abaohum la yaʿqiloona shayan wala yahtadoona
And when it is said to them, "Follow what Allāh has revealed," they say, "Rather, we will follow that which we found our fathers doing." Even though their fathers understood nothing, nor were they guided?
وَ مَثَلُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ كَمَثَلِ ٱلَّذِي يَنۡعِقُ بِمَا لَا يَسۡمَعُ إِلَّا دُعَآءࣰ وَ نِدَآءࣰ ۚ صُمُّۢ بُكۡمٌ عُمۡيࣱ فَهُمۡ لَا يَعۡقِلُونَ﴿١٧١﴾
Wamathalu allatheena kafaroo kamathali allathee yanʿiqu bima la yasmaʿu illa duʿaan wanidaan summun bukmun ʿumyun fahum la yaʿqiloona
The example of those who disbelieve is like that of one who shouts at what hears nothing but calls and cries [i.e., cattle or sheep] - deaf, dumb and blind, so they do not understand.
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ كُلُواْ مِن طَيِّبَٰتِ مَا رَزَقۡنَٰكُمۡ وَ ٱشۡكُرُواْ لِلَّهِ إِن كُنتُمۡ إِيَّاهُ تَعۡبُدُونَ﴿١٧٢﴾
Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo kuloo min tayyibati ma razaqnakum waoshkuroo lillahi in kuntum iyyahu taʿbudoona
O you who have believed, eat from the good [i.e., lawful] things which We have provided for you and be grateful to Allāh if it is [indeed] Him that you worship.
إِنَّمَا حَرَّمَ عَلَيۡكُمُ ٱلۡمَيۡتَةَ وَ ٱلدَّمَ وَ لَحۡمَ ٱلۡخِنزِيرِ وَ مَآ أُهِلَّ بِهِۦ لِغَيۡرِ ٱللَّهِ ۖ فَمَنِ ٱضۡطُرَّ غَيۡرَ بَاغࣲ وَ لَا عَادࣲ فَلَآ إِثۡمَ عَلَيۡهِ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورࣱ رَّحِيمٌ﴿١٧٣﴾

He has only forbidden to you dead animals, blood, the flesh of swine, and that which has been dedicated to other than Allāh. But whoever is forced [by necessity], neither desiring [it] nor transgressing [its limit], there is no sin upon him. Indeed, Allāh is Forgiving and Merciful.
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَكۡتُمُونَ مَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ مِنَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ وَ يَشۡتَرُونَ بِهِۦ ثَمَنࣰا قَلِيلًا أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ مَا يَأۡكُلُونَ فِي بُطُونِهِمۡ إِلَّا ٱلنَّارَ وَ لَا يُكَلِّمُهُمُ ٱللَّهُ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِ وَ لَا يُزَكِّيهِمۡ وَ لَهُمۡ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ﴿١٧٤﴾

Indeed, they who conceal what Allāh has sent down of the Book and exchange it for a small price - those consume not into their bellies except the Fire. And Allāh will not speak to them on the Day of Resurrection, nor will He purify them. And they will have a painful punishment.
أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱشۡتَرَوُاْ ٱلضَّلَٰلَةَ بِٱلۡهُدَىٰ وَ ٱلۡعَذَابَ بِٱلۡمَغۡفِرَةِ ۚ فَمَآ أَصۡبَرَهُمۡ عَلَى ٱلنَّارِ﴿١٧٥﴾
Olaika allatheena ishtarawoo alddalalata bialhuda waalʿathaba bialmaghfirati fama asbarahum ʿala alnnari
Those are the ones who have exchanged guidance for error and forgiveness for punishment. How patient they are for [i.e., in pursuit of] the Fire!
ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ نَزَّلَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ بِٱلۡحَقِّ ۗ وَ إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱخۡتَلَفُواْ فِي ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ لَفِي شِقَاقِۭ بَعِيدࣲ﴿١٧٦﴾
Thalika bianna Allaha nazzala alkitaba bialhaqqi wainna allatheena ikhtalafoo fee alkitabi lafee shiqaqin baʿeedin
That is [deserved by them] because Allāh has sent down the Book in truth. And indeed, those who differ over the Book are in extreme dissension.
لَّيۡسَ ٱلۡبِرَّ أَن تُوَلُّواْ وُجُوهَكُمۡ قِبَلَ ٱلۡمَشۡرِقِ وَ ٱلۡمَغۡرِبِ وَ لَٰكِنَّ ٱلۡبِرَّ مَنۡ ءَامَنَ بِٱللَّهِ وَ ٱلۡيَوۡمِ ٱلۡأٓخِرِ وَ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةِ وَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ وَ ٱلنَّبِيِّـۧنَ وَ ءَاتَى ٱلۡمَالَ عَلَىٰ حُبِّهِۦ ذَوِي ٱلۡقُرۡبَىٰ وَ ٱلۡيَتَٰمَىٰ وَ ٱلۡمَسَٰكِينَ وَ ٱبۡنَ ٱلسَّبِيلِ وَ ٱلسَّآئِلِينَ وَ فِي ٱلرِّقَابِ وَ أَقَامَ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَ ءَاتَى ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ وَ ٱلۡمُوفُونَ بِعَهۡدِهِمۡ إِذَا عَٰهَدُواْ ۖ وَ ٱلصَّٰبِرِينَ فِي ٱلۡبَأۡسَآءِ وَ ٱلضَّرَّآءِ وَ حِينَ ٱلۡبَأۡسِ ۗ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ صَدَقُواْ ۖ وَ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلۡمُتَّقُونَ﴿١٧٧﴾

Righteousness is not that you turn your faces toward the east or the west, but [true] righteousness is [in] one who believes in Allāh, the Last Day, the angels, the Book, and the prophets and gives wealth, in spite of love for it, to relatives, orphans, the needy, the traveler, those who ask [for help], and for freeing slaves; [and who] establishes prayer and gives zakāh; [those who] fulfill their promise when they promise; and [those who] are patient in poverty and hardship and during battle. Those are the ones who have been true, and it is those who are the righteous.
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ كُتِبَ عَلَيۡكُمُ ٱلۡقِصَاصُ فِي ٱلۡقَتۡلَى ۖ ٱلۡحُرُّ بِٱلۡحُرِّ وَ ٱلۡعَبۡدُ بِٱلۡعَبۡدِ وَ ٱلۡأُنثَىٰ بِٱلۡأُنثَىٰ ۚ فَمَنۡ عُفِيَ لَهُۥ مِنۡ أَخِيهِ شَيۡءࣱ فَٱتِّبَاعُۢ بِٱلۡمَعۡرُوفِ وَ أَدَآءٌ إِلَيۡهِ بِإِحۡسَٰنࣲ ۗ ذَٰلِكَ تَخۡفِيفࣱ مِّن رَّبِّكُمۡ وَ رَحۡمَةࣱ ۗ فَمَنِ ٱعۡتَدَىٰ بَعۡدَ ذَٰلِكَ فَلَهُۥ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمࣱ﴿١٧٨﴾

O you who have believed, prescribed for you is legal retribution for those murdered - the free for the free, the slave for the slave, and the female for the female. But whoever overlooks from his brother [i.e., the killer] anything, then there should be a suitable follow-up and payment to him [i.e., the deceased's heir or legal representative] with good conduct. This is an alleviation from your Lord and a mercy. But whoever transgresses after that will have a painful punishment.
وَ لَكُمۡ فِي ٱلۡقِصَاصِ حَيَوٰةࣱ يَٰٓأُوْلِي ٱلۡأَلۡبَٰبِ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَتَّقُونَ﴿١٧٩﴾
Walakum fee alqisasi hayatun ya olee alalbabi laʿallakum tattaqoona
And there is for you in legal retribution [saving of] life, O you [people] of understanding, that you may become righteous.
كُتِبَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ إِذَا حَضَرَ أَحَدَكُمُ ٱلۡمَوۡتُ إِن تَرَكَ خَيۡرًا ٱلۡوَصِيَّةُ لِلۡوَٰلِدَيۡنِ وَ ٱلۡأَقۡرَبِينَ بِٱلۡمَعۡرُوفِ ۖ حَقًّا عَلَى ٱلۡمُتَّقِينَ﴿١٨٠﴾
Kutiba ʿalaykum itha hadara ahadakumu almawtu in taraka khayran alwasiyyatu lilwalidayni waalaqrabeena bialmaʿroofi haqqan ʿala almuttaqeena
Prescribed for you when death approaches [any] one of you if he leaves wealth [is that he should make] a bequest for the parents and near relatives according to what is acceptable - a duty upon the righteous.
فَمَنۢ بَدَّلَهُۥ بَعۡدَ مَا سَمِعَهُۥ فَإِنَّمَآ إِثۡمُهُۥ عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ يُبَدِّلُونَهُۥٓ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمࣱ﴿١٨١﴾
Faman baddalahu baʿdama samiʿahu fainnama ithmuhu ʿala allatheena yubaddiloonahu inna Allaha sameeʿun ʿaleemun
Then whoever alters it [i.e., the bequest] after he has heard it - the sin is only upon those who have altered it. Indeed, Allāh is Hearing and Knowing.
فَمَنۡ خَافَ مِن مُّوصࣲ جَنَفًا أَوۡ إِثۡمࣰا فَأَصۡلَحَ بَيۡنَهُمۡ فَلَآ إِثۡمَ عَلَيۡهِ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورࣱ رَّحِيمࣱ﴿١٨٢﴾
Faman khafa min moosin janafan aw ithman faaslaha baynahum fala ithma ʿalayhi inna Allaha ghafoorun raheemun
But if one fears from the bequeather [some] error or sin and corrects that which is between them [i.e., the concerned parties], there is no sin upon him. Indeed, Allāh is Forgiving and Merciful.
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ كُتِبَ عَلَيۡكُمُ ٱلصِّيَامُ كَمَا كُتِبَ عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِكُمۡ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَتَّقُونَ﴿١٨٣﴾
Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo kutiba ʿalaykumu alssiyamu kama kutiba ʿala allatheena min qablikum laʿallakum tattaqoona
O you who have believed, decreed upon you is fasting as it was decreed upon those before you that you may become righteous -
أَيَّامࣰا مَّعۡدُودَٰتࣲ ۚ فَمَن كَانَ مِنكُم مَّرِيضًا أَوۡ عَلَىٰ سَفَرࣲ فَعِدَّةࣱ مِّنۡ أَيَّامٍ أُخَرَ ۚ وَ عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ يُطِيقُونَهُۥ فِدۡيَةࣱ طَعَامُ مِسۡكِينࣲ ۖ فَمَن تَطَوَّعَ خَيۡرࣰا فَهُوَ خَيۡرࣱ لَّهُۥ ۚ وَ أَن تَصُومُواْ خَيۡرࣱ لَّكُمۡ إِن كُنتُمۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ﴿١٨٤﴾
Ayyaman maʿdoodatin faman kana minkum mareedan aw ʿala safarin faʿiddatun min ayyamin okhara waʿala allatheena yuteeqoonahu fidyatun taʿamu miskeenin faman tatawwaʿa khayran fahuwa khayrun lahu waan tasoomoo khayrun lakum in kuntum taʿlamoona
[Fasting for] a limited number of days. So whoever among you is ill or on a journey [during them] - then an equal number of other days [are to be made up]. And upon those who are able [to fast, but with hardship] - a ransom [as substitute] of feeding a poor person [each day]. And whoever volunteers good [i.e., excess] - it is better for him. But to fast is best for you, if you only knew.
شَهۡرُ رَمَضَانَ ٱلَّذِيٓ أُنزِلَ فِيهِ ٱلۡقُرۡءَانُ هُدࣰى لِّلنَّاسِ وَ بَيِّنَٰتࣲ مِّنَ ٱلۡهُدَىٰ وَ ٱلۡفُرۡقَانِ ۚ فَمَن شَهِدَ مِنكُمُ ٱلشَّهۡرَ فَلۡيَصُمۡهُ ۖ وَ مَن كَانَ مَرِيضًا أَوۡ عَلَىٰ سَفَرࣲ فَعِدَّةࣱ مِّنۡ أَيَّامٍ أُخَرَ ۗ يُرِيدُ ٱللَّهُ بِكُمُ ٱلۡيُسۡرَ وَ لَا يُرِيدُ بِكُمُ ٱلۡعُسۡرَ وَ لِتُكۡمِلُواْ ٱلۡعِدَّةَ وَ لِتُكَبِّرُواْ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ مَا هَدَىٰكُمۡ وَ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَشۡكُرُونَ﴿١٨٥﴾

The month of Ramaḍān [is that] in which was revealed the Qur’ān, a guidance for the people and clear proofs of guidance and criterion. So whoever sights [the crescent of] the month, let him fast it; and whoever is ill or on a journey - then an equal number of other days. Allāh intends for you ease and does not intend for you hardship and [wants] for you to complete the period and to glorify Allāh for that [to] which He has guided you; and perhaps you will be grateful.
وَ إِذَا سَأَلَكَ عِبَادِي عَنِّي فَإِنِّي قَرِيبٌ ۖ أُجِيبُ دَعۡوَةَ ٱلدَّاعِ إِذَا دَعَانِ ۖ فَلۡيَسۡتَجِيبُواْ لِي وَ لۡيُؤۡمِنُواْ بِي لَعَلَّهُمۡ يَرۡشُدُونَ﴿١٨٦﴾
Waitha saalaka ʿibadee ʿannee fainnee qareebun ojeebu daʿwata alddaʿi itha daʿani falyastajeeboo lee walyuminoo bee laʿallahum yarshudoona
And when My servants ask you, [O Muḥammad], concerning Me - indeed I am near. I respond to the invocation of the supplicant when he calls upon Me. So let them respond to Me [by obedience] and believe in Me that they may be [rightly] guided.
أُحِلَّ لَكُمۡ لَيۡلَةَ ٱلصِّيَامِ ٱلرَّفَثُ إِلَىٰ نِسَآئِكُمۡ ۚ هُنَّ لِبَاسࣱ لَّكُمۡ وَ أَنتُمۡ لِبَاسࣱ لَّهُنَّ ۗ عَلِمَ ٱللَّهُ أَنَّكُمۡ كُنتُمۡ تَخۡتَانُونَ أَنفُسَكُمۡ فَتَابَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ وَ عَفَا عَنكُمۡ ۖ فَٱلۡـَٰٔنَ بَٰشِرُوهُنَّ وَ ٱبۡتَغُواْ مَا كَتَبَ ٱللَّهُ لَكُمۡ ۚ وَ كُلُواْ وَ ٱشۡرَبُواْ حَتَّىٰ يَتَبَيَّنَ لَكُمُ ٱلۡخَيۡطُ ٱلۡأَبۡيَضُ مِنَ ٱلۡخَيۡطِ ٱلۡأَسۡوَدِ مِنَ ٱلۡفَجۡرِ ۖ ثُمَّ أَتِمُّواْ ٱلصِّيَامَ إِلَى ٱلَّيۡلِ ۚ وَ لَا تُبَٰشِرُوهُنَّ وَ أَنتُمۡ عَٰكِفُونَ فِي ٱلۡمَسَٰجِدِ ۗ تِلۡكَ حُدُودُ ٱللَّهِ فَلَا تَقۡرَبُوهَا ۗ كَذَٰلِكَ يُبَيِّنُ ٱللَّهُ ءَايَٰتِهِۦ لِلنَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمۡ يَتَّقُونَ﴿١٨٧﴾
Ohilla lakum laylata alssiyami alrrafathu ila nisaikum hunna libasun lakum waantum libasun lahunna ʿalima Allahu annakum kuntum takhtanoona anfusakum fataba ʿalaykum waʿafa ʿankum faalana bashiroohunna waibtaghoo ma kataba Allahu lakum wakuloo waishraboo hatta yatabayyana lakumu alkhaytu alabyadu mina alkhayti alaswadi mina alfajri thumma atimmoo alssiyama ila allayli wala tubashiroohunna waantum ʿakifoona fee almasajidi tilka hudoodu Allahi fala taqrabooha kathalika yubayyinu Allahu ayatihi lilnnasi laʿallahum yattaqoona
It has been made permissible for you the night preceding fasting to go to your wives [for sexual relations]. They are a clothing for you and you are a clothing for them. Allāh knows that you used to deceive yourselves, so He accepted your repentance and forgave you. So now, have relations with them and seek that which Allāh has decreed for you [i.e., offspring]. And eat and drink until the white thread of dawn becomes distinct to you from the black thread [of night]. Then complete the fast until the night [i.e., sunset]. And do not have relations with them as long as you are staying for worship in the mosques. These are the limits [set by] Allāh, so do not approach them. Thus does Allāh make clear His verses [i.e., ordinances] to the people that they may become righteous.
وَ لَا تَأۡكُلُوٓاْ أَمۡوَٰلَكُم بَيۡنَكُم بِٱلۡبَٰطِلِ وَ تُدۡلُواْ بِهَآ إِلَى ٱلۡحُكَّامِ لِتَأۡكُلُواْ فَرِيقࣰا مِّنۡ أَمۡوَٰلِ ٱلنَّاسِ بِٱلۡإِثۡمِ وَ أَنتُمۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ﴿١٨٨﴾
Wala takuloo amwalakum baynakum bialbatili watudloo biha ila alhukkami litakuloo fareeqan min amwali alnnasi bialithmi waantum taʿlamoona
And do not consume one another's wealth unjustly or send it [in bribery] to the rulers in order that [they might aid] you [to] consume a portion of the wealth of the people in sin, while you know [it is unlawful].
يَسۡـَٔلُونَكَ عَنِ ٱلۡأَهِلَّةِ ۖ قُلۡ هِيَ مَوَٰقِيتُ لِلنَّاسِ وَ ٱلۡحَجِّ ۗ وَ لَيۡسَ ٱلۡبِرُّ بِأَن تَأۡتُواْ ٱلۡبُيُوتَ مِن ظُهُورِهَا وَ لَٰكِنَّ ٱلۡبِرَّ مَنِ ٱتَّقَىٰ ۗ وَ أۡتُواْ ٱلۡبُيُوتَ مِنۡ أَبۡوَٰبِهَا ۚ وَ ٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تُفۡلِحُونَ﴿١٨٩﴾

They ask you, [O Muḥammad], about the crescent moons. Say, "They are measurements of time for the people and for ḥajj [pilgrimage]." And it is not righteousness to enter houses from the back, but righteousness is [in] one who fears Allāh. And enter houses from their doors. And fear Allāh that you may succeed.
وَ قَٰتِلُواْ فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلَّذِينَ يُقَٰتِلُونَكُمۡ وَ لَا تَعۡتَدُوٓاْ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ ٱلۡمُعۡتَدِينَ﴿١٩٠﴾
Waqatiloo fee sabeeli Allahi allatheena yuqatiloonakum wala taʿtadoo inna Allaha la yuhibbu almuʿtadeena
Fight in the way of Allāh those who fight against you but do not transgress. Indeed, Allāh does not like transgressors.
وَ ٱقۡتُلُوهُمۡ حَيۡثُ ثَقِفۡتُمُوهُمۡ وَ أَخۡرِجُوهُم مِّنۡ حَيۡثُ أَخۡرَجُوكُمۡ ۚ وَ ٱلۡفِتۡنَةُ أَشَدُّ مِنَ ٱلۡقَتۡلِ ۚ وَ لَا تُقَٰتِلُوهُمۡ عِندَ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ حَتَّىٰ يُقَٰتِلُوكُمۡ فِيهِ ۖ فَإِن قَٰتَلُوكُمۡ فَٱقۡتُلُوهُمۡ ۗ كَذَٰلِكَ جَزَآءُ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ﴿١٩١﴾

And kill them [in battle] wherever you overtake them and expel them from wherever they have expelled you, and fitnah is worse than killing. And do not fight them at al-Masjid al-Ḥarām until they fight you there. But if they fight you, then kill them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers.
فَإِنِ ٱنتَهَوۡاْ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورࣱ رَّحِيمࣱ﴿١٩٢﴾

And if they cease, then indeed, Allāh is Forgiving and Merciful.
وَ قَٰتِلُوهُمۡ حَتَّىٰ لَا تَكُونَ فِتۡنَةࣱ وَ يَكُونَ ٱلدِّينُ لِلَّهِ ۖ فَإِنِ ٱنتَهَوۡاْ فَلَا عُدۡوَٰنَ إِلَّا عَلَى ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ﴿١٩٣﴾
Waqatiloohum hatta la takoona fitnatun wayakoona alddeenu lillahi faini intahaw fala ʿudwana illa ʿala alththalimeena
Fight them until there is no [more] fitnah and [until] religion [i.e., worship] is [acknowledged to be] for Allāh. But if they cease, then there is to be no aggression [i.e., assault] except against the oppressors.
ٱلشَّهۡرُ ٱلۡحَرَامُ بِٱلشَّهۡرِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ وَ ٱلۡحُرُمَٰتُ قِصَاصࣱ ۚ فَمَنِ ٱعۡتَدَىٰ عَلَيۡكُمۡ فَٱعۡتَدُواْ عَلَيۡهِ بِمِثۡلِ مَا ٱعۡتَدَىٰ عَلَيۡكُمۡ ۚ وَ ٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَ ٱعۡلَمُوٓاْ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ مَعَ ٱلۡمُتَّقِينَ﴿١٩٤﴾

[Battle in] the sacred month is for [aggression committed in] the sacred month, and for [all] violations is legal retribution. So whoever has assaulted you, then assault him in the same way that he has assaulted you. And fear Allāh and know that Allāh is with those who fear Him.
وَ أَنفِقُواْ فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ وَ لَا تُلۡقُواْ بِأَيۡدِيكُمۡ إِلَى ٱلتَّهۡلُكَةِ وَ أَحۡسِنُوٓاْ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُحِبُّ ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ﴿١٩٥﴾
Waanfiqoo fee sabeeli Allahi wala tulqoo biaydeekum ila alttahlukati waahsinoo inna Allaha yuhibbu almuhsineena
And spend in the way of Allāh and do not throw [yourselves] with your [own] hands into destruction [by refraining]. And do good; indeed, Allāh loves the doers of good.
وَ أَتِمُّواْ ٱلۡحَجَّ وَ ٱلۡعُمۡرَةَ لِلَّهِ ۚ فَإِنۡ أُحۡصِرۡتُمۡ فَمَا ٱسۡتَيۡسَرَ مِنَ ٱلۡهَدۡيِ ۖ وَ لَا تَحۡلِقُواْ رُءُوسَكُمۡ حَتَّىٰ يَبۡلُغَ ٱلۡهَدۡيُ مَحِلَّهُۥ ۚ فَمَن كَانَ مِنكُم مَّرِيضًا أَوۡ بِهِۦٓ أَذࣰى مِّن رَّأۡسِهِۦ فَفِدۡيَةࣱ مِّن صِيَامٍ أَوۡ صَدَقَةٍ أَوۡ نُسُكࣲ ۚ فَإِذَآ أَمِنتُمۡ فَمَن تَمَتَّعَ بِٱلۡعُمۡرَةِ إِلَى ٱلۡحَجِّ فَمَا ٱسۡتَيۡسَرَ مِنَ ٱلۡهَدۡيِ ۚ فَمَن لَّمۡ يَجِدۡ فَصِيَامُ ثَلَٰثَةِ أَيَّامࣲ فِي ٱلۡحَجِّ وَ سَبۡعَةٍ إِذَا رَجَعۡتُمۡ ۗ تِلۡكَ عَشَرَةࣱ كَامِلَةࣱ ۗ ذَٰلِكَ لِمَن لَّمۡ يَكُنۡ أَهۡلُهُۥ حَاضِرِي ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ ۚ وَ ٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَ ٱعۡلَمُوٓاْ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ شَدِيدُ ٱلۡعِقَابِ﴿١٩٦﴾

And complete the ḥajj and ʿumrah for Allāh. But if you are prevented, then [offer] what can be obtained with ease of sacrificial animals. And do not shave your heads until the sacrificial animal has reached its place of slaughter. And whoever among you is ill or has an ailment of the head [making shaving necessary must offer] a ransom of fasting [three days] or charity or sacrifice. And when you are secure, then whoever performs ʿumrah [during the ḥajj months] followed by ḥajj [offers] what can be obtained with ease of sacrificial animals. And whoever cannot find [or afford such an animal] - then a fast of three days during ḥajj and of seven when you have returned [home]. Those are ten complete [days]. This is for those whose family is not in the area of al-Masjid al-Ḥarām. And fear Allāh and know that Allāh is severe in penalty.

Ḥajj is [during] well-known months, so whoever has made ḥajj obligatory upon himself therein [by entering the state of iḥrām], there is [to be for him] no sexual relations and no disobedience and no disputing during ḥajj. And whatever good you do - Allāh knows it. And take provisions, but indeed, the best provision is fear of Allāh. And fear Me, O you of understanding.
لَيۡسَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ جُنَاحٌ أَن تَبۡتَغُواْ فَضۡلࣰا مِّن رَّبِّكُمۡ ۚ فَإِذَآ أَفَضۡتُم مِّنۡ عَرَفَٰتࣲ فَٱذۡكُرُواْ ٱللَّهَ عِندَ ٱلۡمَشۡعَرِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ ۖ وَ ٱذۡكُرُوهُ كَمَا هَدَىٰكُمۡ وَ إِن كُنتُم مِّن قَبۡلِهِۦ لَمِنَ ٱلضَّآلِّينَ﴿١٩٨﴾
Laysa ʿalaykum junahun an tabtaghoo fadlan min rabbikum faitha afadtum min ʿarafatin faothkuroo Allaha ʿinda almashʿari alharami waothkuroohu kama hadakum wain kuntum min qablihi lamina alddalleena
There is no blame upon you for seeking bounty from your Lord [during ḥajj]. But when you depart from ʿArafāt, remember Allāh at al-Mashʿar al-Ḥarām. And remember Him, as He has guided you, for indeed, you were before that among those astray.
ثُمَّ أَفِيضُواْ مِنۡ حَيۡثُ أَفَاضَ ٱلنَّاسُ وَ ٱسۡتَغۡفِرُواْ ٱللَّهَ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورࣱ رَّحِيمࣱ﴿١٩٩﴾
Thumma afeedoo min haythu afada alnnasu waistaghfiroo Allaha inna Allaha ghafoorun raheemun
Then depart from the place from where [all] the people depart and ask forgiveness of Allāh. Indeed, Allāh is Forgiving and Merciful.
فَإِذَا قَضَيۡتُم مَّنَٰسِكَكُمۡ فَٱذۡكُرُواْ ٱللَّهَ كَذِكۡرِكُمۡ ءَابَآءَكُمۡ أَوۡ أَشَدَّ ذِكۡرࣰا ۗ فَمِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن يَقُولُ رَبَّنَآ ءَاتِنَا فِي ٱلدُّنۡيَا وَ مَا لَهُۥ فِي ٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ مِنۡ خَلَٰقࣲ﴿٢٠٠﴾
Faitha qadaytum manasikakum faothkuroo Allaha kathikrikum abaakum aw ashadda thikran famina alnnasi man yaqoolu rabbana atina fee alddunya wama lahu fee alakhirati min khalaqin
And when you have completed your rites, remember Allāh like your [previous] remembrance of your fathers or with [much] greater remembrance. And among the people is he who says, "Our Lord, give us in this world," and he will have in the Hereafter no share.
وَ مِنۡهُم مَّن يَقُولُ رَبَّنَآ ءَاتِنَا فِي ٱلدُّنۡيَا حَسَنَةࣰ وَ فِي ٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ حَسَنَةࣰ وَ قِنَا عَذَابَ ٱلنَّارِ﴿٢٠١﴾
Waminhum man yaqoolu rabbana atina fee alddunya hasanatan wafee alakhirati hasanatan waqina ʿathaba alnnari
But among them is he who says, "Our Lord, give us in this world [that which is] good and in the Hereafter [that which is] good and protect us from the punishment of the Fire."
أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ لَهُمۡ نَصِيبࣱ مِّمَّا كَسَبُواْ ۚ وَ ٱللَّهُ سَرِيعُ ٱلۡحِسَابِ﴿٢٠٢﴾
Olaika lahum naseebun mimma kasaboo waAllahu sareeʿu alhisabi
Those will have a share of what they have earned, and Allāh is swift in account.
وَ ٱذۡكُرُواْ ٱللَّهَ فِيٓ أَيَّامࣲ مَّعۡدُودَٰتࣲ ۚ فَمَن تَعَجَّلَ فِي يَوۡمَيۡنِ فَلَآ إِثۡمَ عَلَيۡهِ وَ مَن تَأَخَّرَ فَلَآ إِثۡمَ عَلَيۡهِ ۖ لِمَنِ ٱتَّقَىٰ ۗ وَ ٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَ ٱعۡلَمُوٓاْ أَنَّكُمۡ إِلَيۡهِ تُحۡشَرُونَ﴿٢٠٣﴾
Waothkuroo Allaha fee ayyamin maʿdoodatin faman taʿajjala fee yawmayni fala ithma ʿalayhi waman taakhkhara fala ithma ʿalayhi limani ittaqa waittaqoo Allaha waiʿlamoo annakum ilayhi tuhsharoona
And remember Allāh during [specific] numbered days. Then whoever hastens [his departure] in two days - there is no sin upon him; and whoever delays [until the third] - there is no sin upon him - for him who fears Allāh. And fear Allāh and know that unto Him you will be gathered.
وَ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن يُعۡجِبُكَ قَوۡلُهُۥ فِي ٱلۡحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنۡيَا وَ يُشۡهِدُ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ مَا فِي قَلۡبِهِۦ وَ هُوَ أَلَدُّ ٱلۡخِصَامِ﴿٢٠٤﴾
Wamina alnnasi man yuʿjibuka qawluhu fee alhayati alddunya wayushhidu Allaha ʿala ma fee qalbihi wahuwa aladdu alkhisami
And of the people is he whose speech pleases you in worldly life, and he calls Allāh to witness as to what is in his heart, yet he is the fiercest of opponents.
وَ إِذَا تَوَلَّىٰ سَعَىٰ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ لِيُفۡسِدَ فِيهَا وَ يُهۡلِكَ ٱلۡحَرۡثَ وَ ٱلنَّسۡلَ ۚ وَ ٱللَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ ٱلۡفَسَادَ﴿٢٠٥﴾
Waitha tawalla saʿa fee alardi liyufsida feeha wayuhlika alhartha waalnnasla waAllahu la yuhibbu alfasada
And when he goes away, he strives throughout the land to cause corruption therein and destroy crops and animals. And Allāh does not like corruption.
وَ إِذَا قِيلَ لَهُ ٱتَّقِ ٱللَّهَ أَخَذَتۡهُ ٱلۡعِزَّةُ بِٱلۡإِثۡمِ ۚ فَحَسۡبُهُۥ جَهَنَّمُ ۖ وَ لَبِئۡسَ ٱلۡمِهَادُ﴿٢٠٦﴾
Waitha qeela lahu ittaqi Allaha akhathathu alʿizzatu bialithmi fahasbuhu jahannamu walabisa almihadu
And when it is said to him, "Fear Allāh," pride in the sin takes hold of him. Sufficient for him is Hellfire, and how wretched is the resting place.
وَ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن يَشۡرِي نَفۡسَهُ ٱبۡتِغَآءَ مَرۡضَاتِ ٱللَّهِ ۚ وَ ٱللَّهُ رَءُوفُۢ بِٱلۡعِبَادِ﴿٢٠٧﴾
Wamina alnnasi man yashree nafsahu ibtighaa mardati Allahi waAllahu raoofun bialʿibadi
And of the people is he who sells himself, seeking means to the approval of Allāh. And Allāh is Kind to [His] servants.
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ ٱدۡخُلُواْ فِي ٱلسِّلۡمِ كَآفَّةࣰ وَ لَا تَتَّبِعُواْ خُطُوَٰتِ ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنِ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ لَكُمۡ عَدُوࣱّ مُّبِينࣱ﴿٢٠٨﴾
Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo odkhuloo fee alssilmi kaffatan wala tattabiʿoo khutuwati alshshaytani innahu lakum ʿaduwwun mubeenun
O you who have believed, enter into Islām completely [and perfectly] and do not follow the footsteps of Satan. Indeed, he is to you a clear enemy.
فَإِن زَلَلۡتُم مِّنۢ بَعۡدِ مَا جَآءَتۡكُمُ ٱلۡبَيِّنَٰتُ فَٱعۡلَمُوٓاْ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ﴿٢٠٩﴾
Fain zalaltum min baʿdi ma jaatkumu albayyinatu faiʿlamoo anna Allaha ʿazeezun hakeemun
But if you slip [i.e., deviate] after clear proofs have come to you, then know that Allāh is Exalted in Might and Wise.
هَلۡ يَنظُرُونَ إِلَّآ أَن يَأۡتِيَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ فِي ظُلَلࣲ مِّنَ ٱلۡغَمَامِ وَ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ وَ قُضِيَ ٱلۡأَمۡرُ ۚ وَ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ تُرۡجَعُ ٱلۡأُمُورُ﴿٢١٠﴾
Hal yanthuroona illa an yatiyahumu Allahu fee thulalin mina alghamami waalmalaikatu waqudiya alamru waila Allahi turjaʿu alomooru
Do they await but that Allāh should come to them in covers of clouds and the angels [as well] and the matter is [then] decided? And to Allāh [all] matters are returned.
سَلۡ بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ كَمۡ ءَاتَيۡنَٰهُم مِّنۡ ءَايَةِۭ بَيِّنَةࣲ ۗ وَ مَن يُبَدِّلۡ نِعۡمَةَ ٱللَّهِ مِنۢ بَعۡدِ مَا جَآءَتۡهُ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ شَدِيدُ ٱلۡعِقَابِ﴿٢١١﴾
Sal banee israeela kam ataynahum min ayatin bayyinatin waman yubaddil niʿmata Allahi min baʿdi ma jaathu fainna Allaha shadeedu alʿiqabi
Ask the Children of Israel how many a sign of evidence We have given them. And whoever exchanges the favor of Allāh [for disbelief] after it has come to him - then indeed, Allāh is severe in penalty.
زُيِّنَ لِلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ ٱلۡحَيَوٰةُ ٱلدُّنۡيَا وَ يَسۡخَرُونَ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ ۘ وَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّقَوۡاْ فَوۡقَهُمۡ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِ ۗ وَ ٱللَّهُ يَرۡزُقُ مَن يَشَآءُ بِغَيۡرِ حِسَابࣲ﴿٢١٢﴾
Zuyyina lillatheena kafaroo alhayatu alddunya wayaskharoona mina allatheena amanoo waallatheena ittaqaw fawqahum yawma alqiyamati waAllahu yarzuqu man yashao bighayri hisabin
Beautified for those who disbelieve is the life of this world, and they ridicule those who believe. But those who fear Allāh are above them on the Day of Resurrection. And Allāh gives provision to whom He wills without account.
كَانَ ٱلنَّاسُ أُمَّةࣰ وَٰحِدَةࣰ فَبَعَثَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلنَّبِيِّـۧنَ مُبَشِّرِينَ وَ مُنذِرِينَ وَ أَنزَلَ مَعَهُمُ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ بِٱلۡحَقِّ لِيَحۡكُمَ بَيۡنَ ٱلنَّاسِ فِيمَا ٱخۡتَلَفُواْ فِيهِ ۚ وَ مَا ٱخۡتَلَفَ فِيهِ إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُوهُ مِنۢ بَعۡدِ مَا جَآءَتۡهُمُ ٱلۡبَيِّنَٰتُ بَغۡيَۢا بَيۡنَهُمۡ ۖ فَهَدَى ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ لِمَا ٱخۡتَلَفُواْ فِيهِ مِنَ ٱلۡحَقِّ بِإِذۡنِهِۦ ۗ وَ ٱللَّهُ يَهۡدِي مَن يَشَآءُ إِلَىٰ صِرَٰطࣲ مُّسۡتَقِيمٍ﴿٢١٣﴾

Mankind was [of] one religion [before their deviation]; then Allāh sent the prophets as bringers of good tidings and warners and sent down with them the Scripture in truth to judge between the people concerning that in which they differed. And none differed over it [i.e., the Scripture] except those who were given it - after the clear proofs came to them - out of jealous animosity among themselves. And Allāh guided those who believed to the truth concerning that over which they had differed, by His permission. And Allāh guides whom He wills to a straight path.
أَمۡ حَسِبۡتُمۡ أَن تَدۡخُلُواْ ٱلۡجَنَّةَ وَ لَمَّا يَأۡتِكُم مَّثَلُ ٱلَّذِينَ خَلَوۡاْ مِن قَبۡلِكُم ۖ مَّسَّتۡهُمُ ٱلۡبَأۡسَآءُ وَ ٱلضَّرَّآءُ وَ زُلۡزِلُواْ حَتَّىٰ يَقُولَ ٱلرَّسُولُ وَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ مَعَهُۥ مَتَىٰ نَصۡرُ ٱللَّهِ ۗ أَلَآ إِنَّ نَصۡرَ ٱللَّهِ قَرِيبࣱ﴿٢١٤﴾

Or do you think that you will enter Paradise while such [trial] has not yet come to you as came to those who passed on before you? They were touched by poverty and hardship and were shaken until [even their] messenger and those who believed with him said, "When is the help of Allāh?" Unquestionably, the help of Allāh is near.
يَسۡـَٔلُونَكَ مَاذَا يُنفِقُونَ ۖ قُلۡ مَآ أَنفَقۡتُم مِّنۡ خَيۡرࣲ فَلِلۡوَٰلِدَيۡنِ وَ ٱلۡأَقۡرَبِينَ وَ ٱلۡيَتَٰمَىٰ وَ ٱلۡمَسَٰكِينِ وَ ٱبۡنِ ٱلسَّبِيلِ ۗ وَ مَا تَفۡعَلُواْ مِنۡ خَيۡرࣲ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ بِهِۦ عَلِيمࣱ﴿٢١٥﴾

They ask you, [O Muḥammad], what they should spend. Say, "Whatever you spend of good is [to be] for parents and relatives and orphans and the needy and the traveler. And whatever you do of good - indeed, Allāh is Knowing of it."
كُتِبَ عَلَيۡكُمُ ٱلۡقِتَالُ وَ هُوَ كُرۡهࣱ لَّكُمۡ ۖ وَ عَسَىٰٓ أَن تَكۡرَهُواْ شَيۡـࣰٔا وَ هُوَ خَيۡرࣱ لَّكُمۡ ۖ وَ عَسَىٰٓ أَن تُحِبُّواْ شَيۡـࣰٔا وَ هُوَ شَرࣱّ لَّكُمۡ ۚ وَ ٱللَّهُ يَعۡلَمُ وَ أَنتُمۡ لَا تَعۡلَمُونَ﴿٢١٦﴾

Battle has been enjoined upon you while it is hateful to you. But perhaps you hate a thing and it is good for you; and perhaps you love a thing and it is bad for you. And Allāh knows, while you know not.
يَسۡـَٔلُونَكَ عَنِ ٱلشَّهۡرِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ قِتَالࣲ فِيهِ ۖ قُلۡ قِتَالࣱ فِيهِ كَبِيرࣱ ۚ وَ صَدٌّ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ وَ كُفۡرُۢ بِهِۦ وَ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ وَ إِخۡرَاجُ أَهۡلِهِۦ مِنۡهُ أَكۡبَرُ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ ۚ وَ ٱلۡفِتۡنَةُ أَكۡبَرُ مِنَ ٱلۡقَتۡلِ ۗ وَ لَا يَزَالُونَ يُقَٰتِلُونَكُمۡ حَتَّىٰ يَرُدُّوكُمۡ عَن دِينِكُمۡ إِنِ ٱسۡتَطَٰعُواْ ۚ وَ مَن يَرۡتَدِدۡ مِنكُمۡ عَن دِينِهِۦ فَيَمُتۡ وَ هُوَ كَافِرࣱ فَأُوْلَٰٓئِكَ حَبِطَتۡ أَعۡمَٰلُهُمۡ فِي ٱلدُّنۡيَا وَ ٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ ۖ وَ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ أَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلنَّارِ ۖ هُمۡ فِيهَا خَٰلِدُونَ﴿٢١٧﴾

They ask you about the sacred month - about fighting therein. Say, "Fighting therein is great [sin], but averting [people] from the way of Allāh and disbelief in Him and [preventing access to] al-Masjid al-Ḥarām and the expulsion of its people therefrom are greater [evil] in the sight of Allāh. And fitnah is greater than killing." And they will continue to fight you until they turn you back from your religion if they are able. And whoever of you reverts from his religion [to disbelief] and dies while he is a disbeliever - for those, their deeds have become worthless in this world and the Hereafter, and those are the companions of the Fire; they will abide therein eternally.
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَ ٱلَّذِينَ هَاجَرُواْ وَ جَٰهَدُواْ فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ يَرۡجُونَ رَحۡمَتَ ٱللَّهِ ۚ وَ ٱللَّهُ غَفُورࣱ رَّحِيمࣱ﴿٢١٨﴾
Inna allatheena amanoo waallatheena hajaroo wajahadoo fee sabeeli Allahi olaika yarjoona rahmata Allahi waAllahu ghafoorun raheemun
Indeed, those who have believed and those who have emigrated and fought in the cause of Allāh - those expect the mercy of Allāh. And Allāh is Forgiving and Merciful.
يَسۡـَٔلُونَكَ عَنِ ٱلۡخَمۡرِ وَ ٱلۡمَيۡسِرِ ۖ قُلۡ فِيهِمَآ إِثۡمࣱ كَبِيرࣱ وَ مَنَٰفِعُ لِلنَّاسِ وَ إِثۡمُهُمَآ أَكۡبَرُ مِن نَّفۡعِهِمَا ۗ وَ يَسۡـَٔلُونَكَ مَاذَا يُنفِقُونَ ۖ قُلِ ٱلۡعَفۡوَ ۗ كَذَٰلِكَ يُبَيِّنُ ٱللَّهُ لَكُمُ ٱلۡأٓيَٰتِ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَتَفَكَّرُونَ﴿٢١٩﴾

They ask you about wine and gambling. Say, "In them is great sin and [yet, some] benefit for people. But their sin is greater than their benefit." And they ask you what they should spend. Say, "The excess [beyond needs]." Thus Allāh makes clear to you the verses [of revelation] that you might give thought
فِي ٱلدُّنۡيَا وَ ٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ ۗ وَ يَسۡـَٔلُونَكَ عَنِ ٱلۡيَتَٰمَىٰ ۖ قُلۡ إِصۡلَاحࣱ لَّهُمۡ خَيۡرࣱ ۖ وَ إِن تُخَالِطُوهُمۡ فَإِخۡوَٰنُكُمۡ ۚ وَ ٱللَّهُ يَعۡلَمُ ٱلۡمُفۡسِدَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُصۡلِحِ ۚ وَ لَوۡ شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ لَأَعۡنَتَكُمۡ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمࣱ﴿٢٢٠﴾

To this world and the Hereafter. And they ask you about orphans. Say, "Improvement for them is best. And if you mix your affairs with theirs - they are your brothers. And Allāh knows the corrupter from the amender. And if Allāh had willed, He could have put you in difficulty. Indeed, Allāh is Exalted in Might and Wise."
وَ لَا تَنكِحُواْ ٱلۡمُشۡرِكَٰتِ حَتَّىٰ يُؤۡمِنَّ ۚ وَ لَأَمَةࣱ مُّؤۡمِنَةٌ خَيۡرࣱ مِّن مُّشۡرِكَةࣲ وَ لَوۡ أَعۡجَبَتۡكُمۡ ۗ وَ لَا تُنكِحُواْ ٱلۡمُشۡرِكِينَ حَتَّىٰ يُؤۡمِنُواْ ۚ وَ لَعَبۡدࣱ مُّؤۡمِنٌ خَيۡرࣱ مِّن مُّشۡرِكࣲ وَ لَوۡ أَعۡجَبَكُمۡ ۗ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ يَدۡعُونَ إِلَى ٱلنَّارِ ۖ وَ ٱللَّهُ يَدۡعُوٓاْ إِلَى ٱلۡجَنَّةِ وَ ٱلۡمَغۡفِرَةِ بِإِذۡنِهِۦ ۖ وَ يُبَيِّنُ ءَايَٰتِهِۦ لِلنَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمۡ يَتَذَكَّرُونَ﴿٢٢١﴾

And do not marry polytheistic women until they believe. And a believing slave woman is better than a polytheist, even though she might please you. And do not marry polytheistic men [to your women] until they believe. And a believing slave is better than a polytheist, even though he might please you. Those invite [you] to the Fire, but Allāh invites to Paradise and to forgiveness, by His permission. And He makes clear His verses [i.e., ordinances] to the people that perhaps they may remember.
وَ يَسۡـَٔلُونَكَ عَنِ ٱلۡمَحِيضِ ۖ قُلۡ هُوَ أَذࣰى فَٱعۡتَزِلُواْ ٱلنِّسَآءَ فِي ٱلۡمَحِيضِ وَ لَا تَقۡرَبُوهُنَّ حَتَّىٰ يَطۡهُرۡنَ ۖ فَإِذَا تَطَهَّرۡنَ فَأۡتُوهُنَّ مِنۡ حَيۡثُ أَمَرَكُمُ ٱللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُحِبُّ ٱلتَّوَّٰبِينَ وَ يُحِبُّ ٱلۡمُتَطَهِّرِينَ﴿٢٢٢﴾

And they ask you about menstruation. Say, "It is harm, so keep away from wives during menstruation. And do not approach them until they are pure. And when they have purified themselves, then come to them from where Allāh has ordained for you. Indeed, Allāh loves those who are constantly repentant and loves those who purify themselves."
نِسَآؤُكُمۡ حَرۡثࣱ لَّكُمۡ فَأۡتُواْ حَرۡثَكُمۡ أَنَّىٰ شِئۡتُمۡ ۖ وَ قَدِّمُواْ لِأَنفُسِكُمۡ ۚ وَ ٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَ ٱعۡلَمُوٓاْ أَنَّكُم مُّلَٰقُوهُ ۗ وَ بَشِّرِ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ﴿٢٢٣﴾
Nisaokum harthun lakum fatoo harthakum anna shitum waqaddimoo lianfusikum waittaqoo Allaha waiʿlamoo annakum mulaqoohu wabashshiri almumineena
Your wives are a place of cultivation [i.e., sowing of seed] for you, so come to your place of cultivation however you wish and put forth [righteousness] for yourselves. And fear Allāh and know that you will meet Him. And give good tidings to the believers.
وَ لَا تَجۡعَلُواْ ٱللَّهَ عُرۡضَةࣰ لِّأَيۡمَٰنِكُمۡ أَن تَبَرُّواْ وَ تَتَّقُواْ وَ تُصۡلِحُواْ بَيۡنَ ٱلنَّاسِ ۚ وَ ٱللَّهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمࣱ﴿٢٢٤﴾

And do not make [your oath by] Allāh an excuse against being righteous and fearing Allāh and making peace among people. And Allāh is Hearing and Knowing.
لَّا يُؤَاخِذُكُمُ ٱللَّهُ بِٱللَّغۡوِ فِيٓ أَيۡمَٰنِكُمۡ وَ لَٰكِن يُؤَاخِذُكُم بِمَا كَسَبَتۡ قُلُوبُكُمۡ ۗ وَ ٱللَّهُ غَفُورٌ حَلِيمࣱ﴿٢٢٥﴾
La yuakhithukumu Allahu biallaghwi fee aymanikum walakin yuakhithukum bima kasabat quloobukum waAllahu ghafoorun haleemun
Allāh does not impose blame upon you for what is unintentional in your oaths, but He imposes blame upon you for what your hearts have earned. And Allāh is Forgiving and Forbearing.
لِّلَّذِينَ يُؤۡلُونَ مِن نِّسَآئِهِمۡ تَرَبُّصُ أَرۡبَعَةِ أَشۡهُرࣲ ۖ فَإِن فَآءُو فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورࣱ رَّحِيمࣱ﴿٢٢٦﴾
Lillatheena yuloona min nisaihim tarabbusu arbaʿati ashhurin fain faoo fainna Allaha ghafoorun raheemun
For those who swear not to have sexual relations with their wives is a waiting time of four months, but if they return [to normal relations] - then indeed, Allāh is Forgiving and Merciful.
وَ إِنۡ عَزَمُواْ ٱلطَّلَٰقَ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمࣱ﴿٢٢٧﴾

And if they decide on divorce - then indeed, Allāh is Hearing and Knowing.

Divorced women remain in waiting [i.e., do not remarry] for three periods, and it is not lawful for them to conceal what Allāh has created in their wombs if they believe in Allāh and the Last Day. And their husbands have more right to take them back in this [period] if they want reconciliation. And due to them [i.e., the wives] is similar to what is expected of them, according to what is reasonable. But the men [i.e., husbands] have a degree over them [in responsibility and authority]. And Allāh is Exalted in Might and Wise.

Divorce is twice. Then [after that], either keep [her] in an acceptable manner or release [her] with good treatment. And it is not lawful for you to take anything of what you have given them unless both fear that they will not be able to keep [within] the limits of Allāh. But if you fear that they will not keep [within] the limits of Allāh, then there is no blame upon either of them concerning that by which she ransoms herself. These are the limits of Allāh, so do not transgress them. And whoever transgresses the limits of Allāh - it is those who are the wrongdoers [i.e., the unjust].
فَإِن طَلَّقَهَا فَلَا تَحِلُّ لَهُۥ مِنۢ بَعۡدُ حَتَّىٰ تَنكِحَ زَوۡجًا غَيۡرَهُۥ ۗ فَإِن طَلَّقَهَا فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيۡهِمَآ أَن يَتَرَاجَعَآ إِن ظَنَّآ أَن يُقِيمَا حُدُودَ ٱللَّهِ ۗ وَ تِلۡكَ حُدُودُ ٱللَّهِ يُبَيِّنُهَا لِقَوۡمࣲ يَعۡلَمُونَ﴿٢٣٠﴾

And if he has divorced her [for the third time], then she is not lawful to him afterward until [after] she marries a husband other than him. And if he [i.e., the latter husband] divorces her [or dies], there is no blame upon them [i.e., the woman and her former husband] for returning to each other if they think that they can keep [within] the limits of Allāh. These are the limits of Allāh, which He makes clear to a people who know [i.e.,understand].
وَ إِذَا طَلَّقۡتُمُ ٱلنِّسَآءَ فَبَلَغۡنَ أَجَلَهُنَّ فَأَمۡسِكُوهُنَّ بِمَعۡرُوفٍ أَوۡ سَرِّحُوهُنَّ بِمَعۡرُوفࣲ ۚ وَ لَا تُمۡسِكُوهُنَّ ضِرَارࣰا لِّتَعۡتَدُواْ ۚ وَ مَن يَفۡعَلۡ ذَٰلِكَ فَقَدۡ ظَلَمَ نَفۡسَهُۥ ۚ وَ لَا تَتَّخِذُوٓاْ ءَايَٰتِ ٱللَّهِ هُزُوࣰا ۚ وَ ٱذۡكُرُواْ نِعۡمَتَ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيۡكُمۡ وَ مَآ أَنزَلَ عَلَيۡكُم مِّنَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ وَ ٱلۡحِكۡمَةِ يَعِظُكُم بِهِۦ ۚ وَ ٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَ ٱعۡلَمُوٓاْ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ بِكُلِّ شَيۡءٍ عَلِيمࣱ﴿٢٣١﴾

And when you divorce women and they have [nearly] fulfilled their term, either retain them according to acceptable terms or release them according to acceptable terms, and do not keep them, intending harm, to transgress [against them]. And whoever does that has certainly wronged himself. And do not take the verses of Allāh in jest. And remember the favor of Allāh upon you and what has been revealed to you of the Book [i.e., the Qur’ān] and wisdom [i.e., the Prophet's sunnah] by which He instructs you. And fear Allāh and know that Allāh is Knowing of all things.
وَ إِذَا طَلَّقۡتُمُ ٱلنِّسَآءَ فَبَلَغۡنَ أَجَلَهُنَّ فَلَا تَعۡضُلُوهُنَّ أَن يَنكِحۡنَ أَزۡوَٰجَهُنَّ إِذَا تَرَٰضَوۡاْ بَيۡنَهُم بِٱلۡمَعۡرُوفِ ۗ ذَٰلِكَ يُوعَظُ بِهِۦ مَن كَانَ مِنكُمۡ يُؤۡمِنُ بِٱللَّهِ وَ ٱلۡيَوۡمِ ٱلۡأٓخِرِ ۗ ذَٰلِكُمۡ أَزۡكَىٰ لَكُمۡ وَ أَطۡهَرُ ۚ وَ ٱللَّهُ يَعۡلَمُ وَ أَنتُمۡ لَا تَعۡلَمُونَ﴿٢٣٢﴾

And when you divorce women and they have fulfilled their term, do not prevent them from remarrying their [former] husbands if they [i.e., all parties] agree among themselves on an acceptable basis. That is instructed to whoever of you believes in Allāh and the Last Day. That is better for you and purer, and Allāh knows and you know not.

Mothers may nurse [i.e., breastfeed] their children two complete years for whoever wishes to complete the nursing [period]. Upon the father is their [i.e., the mothers'] provision and their clothing according to what is acceptable. No person is charged with more than his capacity. No mother should be harmed through her child, and no father through his child. And upon the [father's] heir is [a duty] like that [of the father]. And if they both desire weaning through mutual consent from both of them and consultation, there is no blame upon either of them. And if you wish to have your children nursed by a substitute, there is no blame upon you as long as you give payment according to what is acceptable. And fear Allāh and know that Allāh is Seeing of what you do.

And those who are taken in death among you and leave wives behind - they, [the wives, shall] wait four months and ten [days]. And when they have fulfilled their term, then there is no blame upon you for what they do with themselves in an acceptable manner. And Allāh is [fully] Aware of what you do.

There is no blame upon you for that to which you [indirectly] allude concerning a proposal to women or for what you conceal within yourselves. Allāh knows that you will have them in mind. But do not promise them secretly except for saying a proper saying. And do not determine to undertake a marriage contract until the decreed period reaches its end. And know that Allāh knows what is within yourselves, so beware of Him. And know that Allāh is Forgiving and Forbearing.

There is no blame upon you if you divorce women you have not touched nor specified for them an obligation. But give them [a gift of] compensation - the wealthy according to his capability and the poor according to his capability - a provision according to what is acceptable, a duty upon the doers of good.
وَ إِن طَلَّقۡتُمُوهُنَّ مِن قَبۡلِ أَن تَمَسُّوهُنَّ وَ قَدۡ فَرَضۡتُمۡ لَهُنَّ فَرِيضَةࣰ فَنِصۡفُ مَا فَرَضۡتُمۡ إِلَّآ أَن يَعۡفُونَ أَوۡ يَعۡفُوَاْ ٱلَّذِي بِيَدِهِۦ عُقۡدَةُ ٱلنِّكَاحِ ۚ وَ أَن تَعۡفُوٓاْ أَقۡرَبُ لِلتَّقۡوَىٰ ۚ وَ لَا تَنسَوُاْ ٱلۡفَضۡلَ بَيۡنَكُمۡ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُونَ بَصِيرٌ﴿٢٣٧﴾

And if you divorce them before you have touched them and you have already specified for them an obligation, then [give] half of what you specified - unless they forego the right or the one in whose hand is the marriage contract foregoes it. And to forego it is nearer to righteousness. And do not forget graciousness between you. Indeed Allāh, of whatever you do, is Seeing.

Maintain with care the [obligatory] prayers and [in particular] the middle [i.e., ʿaṣr] prayer and stand before Allāh, devoutly obedient.
فَإِنۡ خِفۡتُمۡ فَرِجَالًا أَوۡ رُكۡبَانࣰا ۖ فَإِذَآ أَمِنتُمۡ فَٱذۡكُرُواْ ٱللَّهَ كَمَا عَلَّمَكُم مَّا لَمۡ تَكُونُواْ تَعۡلَمُونَ﴿٢٣٩﴾

And if you fear [an enemy, then pray] on foot or riding. But when you are secure, then remember Allāh [in prayer], as He has taught you that which you did not [previously] know.
وَ ٱلَّذِينَ يُتَوَفَّوۡنَ مِنكُمۡ وَ يَذَرُونَ أَزۡوَٰجࣰا وَصِيَّةࣰ لِّأَزۡوَٰجِهِم مَّتَٰعًا إِلَى ٱلۡحَوۡلِ غَيۡرَ إِخۡرَاجࣲ ۚ فَإِنۡ خَرَجۡنَ فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ فِي مَا فَعَلۡنَ فِيٓ أَنفُسِهِنَّ مِن مَّعۡرُوفࣲ ۗ وَ ٱللَّهُ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمࣱ﴿٢٤٠﴾

And those who are taken in death among you and leave wives behind - for their wives is a bequest: maintenance for one year without turning [them] out. But if they leave [of their own accord], then there is no blame upon you for what they do with themselves in an acceptable way. And Allāh is Exalted in Might and Wise.

And for divorced women is a provision according to what is acceptable - a duty upon the righteous.

Thus does Allāh make clear to you His verses [i.e., laws] that you might use reason.
أَلَمۡ تَرَ إِلَى ٱلَّذِينَ خَرَجُواْ مِن دِيَٰرِهِمۡ وَ هُمۡ أُلُوفٌ حَذَرَ ٱلۡمَوۡتِ فَقَالَ لَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ مُوتُواْ ثُمَّ أَحۡيَٰهُمۡ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَذُو فَضۡلٍ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ وَ لَٰكِنَّ أَكۡثَرَ ٱلنَّاسِ لَا يَشۡكُرُونَ﴿٢٤٣﴾

Have you not considered those who left their homes in many thousands, fearing death? Allāh said to them, "Die"; then He restored them to life. And Allāh is the possessor of bounty for the people, but most of the people do not show gratitude.
وَ قَٰتِلُواْ فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ وَ ٱعۡلَمُوٓاْ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمࣱ﴿٢٤٤﴾

And fight in the cause of Allāh and know that Allāh is Hearing and Knowing.

Man tha allathee yuqridu Allaha qardan hasanan fayudaʿifahu lahu adʿafan katheeratan waAllahu yaqbidu wayabsutu wailayhi turjaʿoona
Who is it that would loan Allāh a goodly loan so He may multiply it for him many times over? And it is Allāh who withholds and grants abundance, and to Him you will be returned.
أَلَمۡ تَرَ إِلَى ٱلۡمَلَإِ مِنۢ بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ مِنۢ بَعۡدِ مُوسَىٰٓ إِذۡ قَالُواْ لِنَبِيࣲّ لَّهُمُ ٱبۡعَثۡ لَنَا مَلِكࣰا نُّقَٰتِلۡ فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ ۖ قَالَ هَلۡ عَسَيۡتُمۡ إِن كُتِبَ عَلَيۡكُمُ ٱلۡقِتَالُ أَلَّا تُقَٰتِلُواْ ۖ قَالُواْ وَ مَا لَنَآ أَلَّا نُقَٰتِلَ فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ وَ قَدۡ أُخۡرِجۡنَا مِن دِيَٰرِنَا وَ أَبۡنَآئِنَا ۖ فَلَمَّا كُتِبَ عَلَيۡهِمُ ٱلۡقِتَالُ تَوَلَّوۡاْ إِلَّا قَلِيلࣰا مِّنۡهُمۡ ۚ وَ ٱللَّهُ عَلِيمُۢ بِٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ﴿٢٤٦﴾

Have you not considered the assembly of the Children of Israel after [the time of] Moses when they said to a prophet of theirs, "Send to us a king, and we will fight in the way of Allāh"? He said, "Would you perhaps refrain from fighting if battle was prescribed for you?" They said, "And why should we not fight in the cause of Allāh when we have been driven out from our homes and from our children?" But when battle was prescribed for them, they turned away, except for a few of them. And Allāh is Knowing of the wrongdoers.
وَ قَالَ لَهُمۡ نَبِيُّهُمۡ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ قَدۡ بَعَثَ لَكُمۡ طَالُوتَ مَلِكࣰا ۚ قَالُوٓاْ أَنَّىٰ يَكُونُ لَهُ ٱلۡمُلۡكُ عَلَيۡنَا وَ نَحۡنُ أَحَقُّ بِٱلۡمُلۡكِ مِنۡهُ وَ لَمۡ يُؤۡتَ سَعَةࣰ مِّنَ ٱلۡمَالِ ۚ قَالَ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ ٱصۡطَفَىٰهُ عَلَيۡكُمۡ وَ زَادَهُۥ بَسۡطَةࣰ فِي ٱلۡعِلۡمِ وَ ٱلۡجِسۡمِ ۖ وَ ٱللَّهُ يُؤۡتِي مُلۡكَهُۥ مَن يَشَآءُ ۚ وَ ٱللَّهُ وَٰسِعٌ عَلِيمࣱ﴿٢٤٧﴾

And their prophet said to them, "Indeed, Allāh has sent to you Saul as a king." They said, "How can he have kingship over us while we are more worthy of kingship than him and he has not been given any measure of wealth?" He said, "Indeed, Allāh has chosen him over you and has increased him abundantly in knowledge and stature. And Allāh gives His sovereignty to whom He wills. And Allāh is all-Encompassing [in favor] and Knowing."
وَ قَالَ لَهُمۡ نَبِيُّهُمۡ إِنَّ ءَايَةَ مُلۡكِهِۦٓ أَن يَأۡتِيَكُمُ ٱلتَّابُوتُ فِيهِ سَكِينَةࣱ مِّن رَّبِّكُمۡ وَ بَقِيَّةࣱ مِّمَّا تَرَكَ ءَالُ مُوسَىٰ وَ ءَالُ هَٰرُونَ تَحۡمِلُهُ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ ۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةࣰ لَّكُمۡ إِن كُنتُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ﴿٢٤٨﴾

And their prophet said to them, "Indeed, a sign of his kingship is that the chest will come to you in which is assurance from your Lord and a remnant of what the family of Moses and the family of Aaron had left, carried by the angels. Indeed in that is a sign for you, if you are believers."
فَلَمَّا فَصَلَ طَالُوتُ بِٱلۡجُنُودِ قَالَ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ مُبۡتَلِيكُم بِنَهَرࣲ فَمَن شَرِبَ مِنۡهُ فَلَيۡسَ مِنِّي وَ مَن لَّمۡ يَطۡعَمۡهُ فَإِنَّهُۥ مِنِّيٓ إِلَّا مَنِ ٱغۡتَرَفَ غُرۡفَةَۢ بِيَدِهِۦ ۚ فَشَرِبُواْ مِنۡهُ إِلَّا قَلِيلࣰا مِّنۡهُمۡ ۚ فَلَمَّا جَاوَزَهُۥ هُوَ وَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ مَعَهُۥ قَالُواْ لَا طَاقَةَ لَنَا ٱلۡيَوۡمَ بِجَالُوتَ وَ جُنُودِهِۦ ۚ قَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَظُنُّونَ أَنَّهُم مُّلَٰقُواْ ٱللَّهِ كَم مِّن فِئَةࣲ قَلِيلَةٍ غَلَبَتۡ فِئَةࣰ كَثِيرَةَۢ بِإِذۡنِ ٱللَّهِ ۗ وَ ٱللَّهُ مَعَ ٱلصَّٰبِرِينَ﴿٢٤٩﴾

And when Saul went forth with the soldiers, he said, "Indeed, Allāh will be testing you with a river. So whoever drinks from it is not of me, and whoever does not taste it is indeed of me, excepting one who takes [from it] in the hollow of his hand." But they drank from it, except a [very] few of them. Then when he had crossed it along with those who believed with him, they said, "There is no power for us today against Goliath and his soldiers." But those who were certain that they would meet Allāh said, "How many a small company has overcome a large company by permission of Allāh. And Allāh is with the patient."
وَ لَمَّا بَرَزُواْ لِجَالُوتَ وَ جُنُودِهِۦ قَالُواْ رَبَّنَآ أَفۡرِغۡ عَلَيۡنَا صَبۡرࣰا وَ ثَبِّتۡ أَقۡدَامَنَا وَ ٱنصُرۡنَا عَلَى ٱلۡقَوۡمِ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ﴿٢٥٠﴾
Walamma barazoo lijaloota wajunoodihi qaloo rabbana afrigh ʿalayna sabran wathabbit aqdamana waonsurna ʿala alqawmi alkafireena
And when they went forth to [face] Goliath and his soldiers, they said, "Our Lord, pour upon us patience and plant firmly our feet and give us victory over the disbelieving people."
فَهَزَمُوهُم بِإِذۡنِ ٱللَّهِ وَ قَتَلَ دَاوُۥدُ جَالُوتَ وَ ءَاتَىٰهُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡمُلۡكَ وَ ٱلۡحِكۡمَةَ وَ عَلَّمَهُۥ مِمَّا يَشَآءُ ۗ وَ لَوۡلَا دَفۡعُ ٱللَّهِ ٱلنَّاسَ بَعۡضَهُم بِبَعۡضࣲ لَّفَسَدَتِ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ وَ لَٰكِنَّ ٱللَّهَ ذُو فَضۡلٍ عَلَى ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ﴿٢٥١﴾

So they defeated them by permission of Allāh, and David killed Goliath, and Allāh gave him the kingship and wisdom [i.e., prophethood] and taught him from that which He willed. And if it were not for Allāh checking [some] people by means of others, the earth would have been corrupted, but Allāh is the possessor of bounty for the worlds.
تِلۡكَ ءَايَٰتُ ٱللَّهِ نَتۡلُوهَا عَلَيۡكَ بِٱلۡحَقِّ ۚ وَ إِنَّكَ لَمِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ﴿٢٥٢﴾
Tilka ayatu Allahi natlooha ʿalayka bialhaqqi wainnaka lamina almursaleena
These are the verses of Allāh which We recite to you, [O Muḥammad], in truth. And indeed, you are from among the messengers.
تِلۡكَ ٱلرُّسُلُ فَضَّلۡنَا بَعۡضَهُمۡ عَلَىٰ بَعۡضࣲ ۘ مِّنۡهُم مَّن كَلَّمَ ٱللَّهُ ۖ وَ رَفَعَ بَعۡضَهُمۡ دَرَجَٰتࣲ ۚ وَ ءَاتَيۡنَا عِيسَى ٱبۡنَ مَرۡيَمَ ٱلۡبَيِّنَٰتِ وَ أَيَّدۡنَٰهُ بِرُوحِ ٱلۡقُدُسِ ۗ وَ لَوۡ شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ مَا ٱقۡتَتَلَ ٱلَّذِينَ مِنۢ بَعۡدِهِم مِّنۢ بَعۡدِ مَا جَآءَتۡهُمُ ٱلۡبَيِّنَٰتُ وَ لَٰكِنِ ٱخۡتَلَفُواْ فَمِنۡهُم مَّنۡ ءَامَنَ وَ مِنۡهُم مَّن كَفَرَ ۚ وَ لَوۡ شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ مَا ٱقۡتَتَلُواْ وَ لَٰكِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَفۡعَلُ مَا يُرِيدُ﴿٢٥٣﴾

Those messengers - some of them We caused to exceed others. Among them were those to whom Allāh spoke, and He raised some of them in degree. And We gave Jesus, the son of Mary, clear proofs, and We supported him with the Pure Spirit [i.e., Gabriel]. If Allāh had willed, those [generations] succeeding them would not have fought each other after the clear proofs had come to them. But they differed, and some of them believed and some of them disbelieved. And if Allāh had willed, they would not have fought each other, but Allāh does what He intends.
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ أَنفِقُواْ مِمَّا رَزَقۡنَٰكُم مِّن قَبۡلِ أَن يَأۡتِيَ يَوۡمࣱ لَّا بَيۡعࣱ فِيهِ وَ لَا خُلَّةࣱ وَ لَا شَفَٰعَةࣱ ۗ وَ ٱلۡكَٰفِرُونَ هُمُ ٱلظَّٰلِمُونَ﴿٢٥٤﴾
Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo anfiqoo mimma razaqnakum min qabli an yatiya yawmun la bayʿun feehi wala khullatun wala shafaʿatun waalkafiroona humu alththalimoona
O you who have believed, spend from that which We have provided for you before there comes a Day in which there is no exchange [i.e., ransom] and no friendship and no intercession. And the disbelievers - they are the wrongdoers.
ٱللَّهُ لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ٱلۡحَيُّ ٱلۡقَيُّومُ ۚ لَا تَأۡخُذُهُۥ سِنَةࣱ وَ لَا نَوۡمࣱ ۚ لَّهُۥ مَا فِي ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَ مَا فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ ۗ مَن ذَا ٱلَّذِي يَشۡفَعُ عِندَهُۥٓ إِلَّا بِإِذۡنِهِۦ ۚ يَعۡلَمُ مَا بَيۡنَ أَيۡدِيهِمۡ وَ مَا خَلۡفَهُمۡ ۖ وَ لَا يُحِيطُونَ بِشَيۡءࣲ مِّنۡ عِلۡمِهِۦٓ إِلَّا بِمَا شَآءَ ۚ وَسِعَ كُرۡسِيُّهُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَ ٱلۡأَرۡضَ ۖ وَ لَا يَـُٔودُهُۥ حِفۡظُهُمَا ۚ وَ هُوَ ٱلۡعَلِيُّ ٱلۡعَظِيمُ﴿٢٥٥﴾

Allāh - there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Self-Sustaining. Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what He wills. His Kursī extends over the heavens and the earth, and their preservation tires Him not. And He is the Most High, the Most Great.
لَآ إِكۡرَاهَ فِي ٱلدِّينِ ۖ قَد تَّبَيَّنَ ٱلرُّشۡدُ مِنَ ٱلۡغَيِّ ۚ فَمَن يَكۡفُرۡ بِٱلطَّٰغُوتِ وَ يُؤۡمِنۢ بِٱللَّهِ فَقَدِ ٱسۡتَمۡسَكَ بِٱلۡعُرۡوَةِ ٱلۡوُثۡقَىٰ لَا ٱنفِصَامَ لَهَا ۗ وَ ٱللَّهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ﴿٢٥٦﴾

There shall be no compulsion in [acceptance of] the religion. The right course has become distinct from the wrong. So whoever disbelieves in ṭāghūt and believes in Allāh has grasped the most trustworthy handhold with no break in it. And Allāh is Hearing and Knowing.
ٱللَّهُ وَلِيُّ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ يُخۡرِجُهُم مِّنَ ٱلظُّلُمَٰتِ إِلَى ٱلنُّورِ ۖ وَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓاْ أَوۡلِيَآؤُهُمُ ٱلطَّٰغُوتُ يُخۡرِجُونَهُم مِّنَ ٱلنُّورِ إِلَى ٱلظُّلُمَٰتِ ۗ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ أَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلنَّارِ ۖ هُمۡ فِيهَا خَٰلِدُونَ﴿٢٥٧﴾
Allahu waliyyu allatheena amanoo yukhrijuhum mina alththulumati ila alnnoori waallatheena kafaroo awliyaohumu alttaghootu yukhrijoonahum mina alnnoori ila alththulumati olaika ashabu alnnari hum feeha khalidoona
Allāh is the Ally of those who believe. He brings them out from darknesses into the light. And those who disbelieve - their allies are ṭāghūt. They take them out of the light into darknesses. Those are the companions of the Fire; they will abide eternally therein.
أَلَمۡ تَرَ إِلَى ٱلَّذِي حَآجَّ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمَ فِي رَبِّهِۦٓ أَنۡ ءَاتَىٰهُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡمُلۡكَ إِذۡ قَالَ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمُ رَبِّيَ ٱلَّذِي يُحۡيِۦ وَ يُمِيتُ قَالَ أَنَا۠ أُحۡيِۦ وَ أُمِيتُ ۖ قَالَ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمُ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَأۡتِي بِٱلشَّمۡسِ مِنَ ٱلۡمَشۡرِقِ فَأۡتِ بِهَا مِنَ ٱلۡمَغۡرِبِ فَبُهِتَ ٱلَّذِي كَفَرَ ۗ وَ ٱللَّهُ لَا يَهۡدِي ٱلۡقَوۡمَ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ﴿٢٥٨﴾

Have you not considered the one who argued with Abraham about his Lord [merely] because Allāh had given him kingship? When Abraham said, "My Lord is the one who gives life and causes death," he said, "I give life and cause death." Abraham said, "Indeed, Allāh brings up the sun from the east, so bring it up from the west." So the disbeliever was overwhelmed [by astonishment], and Allāh does not guide the wrongdoing people.
أَوۡ كَٱلَّذِي مَرَّ عَلَىٰ قَرۡيَةࣲ وَ هِيَ خَاوِيَةٌ عَلَىٰ عُرُوشِهَا قَالَ أَنَّىٰ يُحۡيِۦ هَٰذِهِ ٱللَّهُ بَعۡدَ مَوۡتِهَا ۖ فَأَمَاتَهُ ٱللَّهُ مِاْئَةَ عَامࣲ ثُمَّ بَعَثَهُۥ ۖ قَالَ كَمۡ لَبِثۡتَ ۖ قَالَ لَبِثۡتُ يَوۡمًا أَوۡ بَعۡضَ يَوۡمࣲ ۖ قَالَ بَل لَّبِثۡتَ مِاْئَةَ عَامࣲ فَٱنظُرۡ إِلَىٰ طَعَامِكَ وَ شَرَابِكَ لَمۡ يَتَسَنَّهۡ ۖ وَ ٱنظُرۡ إِلَىٰ حِمَارِكَ وَ لِنَجۡعَلَكَ ءَايَةࣰ لِّلنَّاسِ ۖ وَ ٱنظُرۡ إِلَى ٱلۡعِظَامِ كَيۡفَ نُنشِزُهَا ثُمَّ نَكۡسُوهَا لَحۡمࣰا ۚ فَلَمَّا تَبَيَّنَ لَهُۥ قَالَ أَعۡلَمُ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيۡءࣲ قَدِيرࣱ﴿٢٥٩﴾

Or [consider such an example] as the one who passed by a township which had fallen into ruin. He said, "How will Allāh bring this to life after its death?" So Allāh caused him to die for a hundred years; then He revived him. He said, "How long have you remained?" He [the man] said, "I have remained a day or part of a day." He said, "Rather, you have remained one hundred years. Look at your food and your drink; it has not changed with time. And look at your donkey; and We will make you a sign for the people. And look at the bones [of this donkey] - how We raise them and then We cover them with flesh." And when it became clear to him, he said, "I know that Allāh is over all things competent."
وَ إِذۡ قَالَ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمُ رَبِّ أَرِنِي كَيۡفَ تُحۡيِ ٱلۡمَوۡتَىٰ ۖ قَالَ أَوَلَمۡ تُؤۡمِن ۖ قَالَ بَلَىٰ وَ لَٰكِن لِّيَطۡمَئِنَّ قَلۡبِي ۖ قَالَ فَخُذۡ أَرۡبَعَةࣰ مِّنَ ٱلطَّيۡرِ فَصُرۡهُنَّ إِلَيۡكَ ثُمَّ ٱجۡعَلۡ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ جَبَلࣲ مِّنۡهُنَّ جُزۡءࣰا ثُمَّ ٱدۡعُهُنَّ يَأۡتِينَكَ سَعۡيࣰا ۚ وَ ٱعۡلَمۡ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمࣱ﴿٢٦٠﴾

And [mention] when Abraham said, "My Lord, show me how You give life to the dead." [Allāh] said, "Have you not believed?" He said, "Yes, but [I ask] only that my heart may be satisfied." [Allāh] said, "Take four birds and commit them to yourself. Then [after slaughtering them] put on each hill a portion of them; then call them - they will come [flying] to you in haste. And know that Allāh is Exalted in Might and Wise."
مَّثَلُ ٱلَّذِينَ يُنفِقُونَ أَمۡوَٰلَهُمۡ فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ كَمَثَلِ حَبَّةٍ أَنۢبَتَتۡ سَبۡعَ سَنَابِلَ فِي كُلِّ سُنۢبُلَةࣲ مِّاْئَةُ حَبَّةࣲ ۗ وَ ٱللَّهُ يُضَٰعِفُ لِمَن يَشَآءُ ۚ وَ ٱللَّهُ وَٰسِعٌ عَلِيمٌ﴿٢٦١﴾

The example of those who spend their wealth in the way of Allāh is like a seed [of grain] which grows seven spikes; in each spike is a hundred grains. And Allāh multiplies [His reward] for whom He wills. And Allāh is all-Encompassing and Knowing.
ٱلَّذِينَ يُنفِقُونَ أَمۡوَٰلَهُمۡ فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ ثُمَّ لَا يُتۡبِعُونَ مَآ أَنفَقُواْ مَنࣰّا وَ لَآ أَذࣰى لَّهُمۡ أَجۡرُهُمۡ عِندَ رَبِّهِمۡ وَ لَا خَوۡفٌ عَلَيۡهِمۡ وَ لَا هُمۡ يَحۡزَنُونَ﴿٢٦٢﴾
Allatheena yunfiqoona amwalahum fee sabeeli Allahi thumma la yutbiʿoona ma anfaqoo mannan wala athan lahum ajruhum ʿinda rabbihim wala khawfun ʿalayhim wala hum yahzanoona
Those who spend their wealth in the way of Allāh and then do not follow up what they have spent with reminders [of it] or [other] injury will have their reward with their Lord, and there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve.
قَوۡلࣱ مَّعۡرُوفࣱ وَ مَغۡفِرَةٌ خَيۡرࣱ مِّن صَدَقَةࣲ يَتۡبَعُهَآ أَذࣰى ۗ وَ ٱللَّهُ غَنِيٌّ حَلِيمࣱ﴿٢٦٣﴾
Qawlun maʿroofun wamaghfiratun khayrun min sadaqatin yatbaʿuha athan waAllahu ghaniyyun haleemun
Kind speech and forgiveness are better than charity followed by injury. And Allāh is Free of need and Forbearing.
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ لَا تُبۡطِلُواْ صَدَقَٰتِكُم بِٱلۡمَنِّ وَ ٱلۡأَذَىٰ كَٱلَّذِي يُنفِقُ مَالَهُۥ رِئَآءَ ٱلنَّاسِ وَ لَا يُؤۡمِنُ بِٱللَّهِ وَ ٱلۡيَوۡمِ ٱلۡأٓخِرِ ۖ فَمَثَلُهُۥ كَمَثَلِ صَفۡوَانٍ عَلَيۡهِ تُرَابࣱ فَأَصَابَهُۥ وَابِلࣱ فَتَرَكَهُۥ صَلۡدࣰا ۖ لَّا يَقۡدِرُونَ عَلَىٰ شَيۡءࣲ مِّمَّا كَسَبُواْ ۗ وَ ٱللَّهُ لَا يَهۡدِي ٱلۡقَوۡمَ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ﴿٢٦٤﴾
Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo la tubtiloo sadaqatikum bialmanni waalatha kaallathee yunfiqu malahu riaa alnnasi wala yuminu biAllahi waalyawmi alakhiri famathaluhu kamathali safwanin ʿalayhi turabun faasabahu wabilun fatarakahu saldan la yaqdiroona ʿala shayin mimma kasaboo waAllahu la yahdee alqawma alkafireena
O you who have believed, do not invalidate your charities with reminders [of it] or injury as does one who spends his wealth [only] to be seen by the people and does not believe in Allāh and the Last Day. His example is like that of a [large] smooth stone upon which is dust and is hit by a downpour that leaves it bare. They are unable [to keep] anything of what they have earned. And Allāh does not guide the disbelieving people.
وَ مَثَلُ ٱلَّذِينَ يُنفِقُونَ أَمۡوَٰلَهُمُ ٱبۡتِغَآءَ مَرۡضَاتِ ٱللَّهِ وَ تَثۡبِيتࣰا مِّنۡ أَنفُسِهِمۡ كَمَثَلِ جَنَّةِۭ بِرَبۡوَةٍ أَصَابَهَا وَابِلࣱ فَـَٔاتَتۡ أُكُلَهَا ضِعۡفَيۡنِ فَإِن لَّمۡ يُصِبۡهَا وَابِلࣱ فَطَلࣱّ ۗ وَ ٱللَّهُ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُونَ بَصِيرٌ﴿٢٦٥﴾

And the example of those who spend their wealth seeking means to the approval of Allāh and assuring [reward for] themselves is like a garden on high ground which is hit by a downpour - so it yields its fruits in double. And [even] if it is not hit by a downpour, then a drizzle [is sufficient]. And Allāh, of what you do, is Seeing.
أَيَوَدُّ أَحَدُكُمۡ أَن تَكُونَ لَهُۥ جَنَّةࣱ مِّن نَّخِيلࣲ وَ أَعۡنَابࣲ تَجۡرِي مِن تَحۡتِهَا ٱلۡأَنۡهَٰرُ لَهُۥ فِيهَا مِن كُلِّ ٱلثَّمَرَٰتِ وَ أَصَابَهُ ٱلۡكِبَرُ وَ لَهُۥ ذُرِّيَّةࣱ ضُعَفَآءُ فَأَصَابَهَآ إِعۡصَارࣱ فِيهِ نَارࣱ فَٱحۡتَرَقَتۡ ۗ كَذَٰلِكَ يُبَيِّنُ ٱللَّهُ لَكُمُ ٱلۡأٓيَٰتِ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَتَفَكَّرُونَ﴿٢٦٦﴾
Ayawaddu ahadukum an takoona lahu jannatun min nakheelin waaʿnabin tajree min tahtiha alanharu lahu feeha min kulli alththamarati waasabahu alkibaru walahu thurriyyatun duʿafao faasabaha iʿsarun feehi narun faihtaraqat kathalika yubayyinu Allahu lakumu alayati laʿallakum tatafakkaroona
Would one of you like to have a garden of palm trees and grapevines underneath which rivers flow in which he has from every fruit? But he is afflicted with old age and has weak [i.e., immature] offspring, and it is hit by a whirlwind containing fire and is burned. Thus does Allāh make clear to you [His] verses that you might give thought.
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ أَنفِقُواْ مِن طَيِّبَٰتِ مَا كَسَبۡتُمۡ وَ مِمَّآ أَخۡرَجۡنَا لَكُم مِّنَ ٱلۡأَرۡضِ ۖ وَ لَا تَيَمَّمُواْ ٱلۡخَبِيثَ مِنۡهُ تُنفِقُونَ وَ لَسۡتُم بِـَٔاخِذِيهِ إِلَّآ أَن تُغۡمِضُواْ فِيهِ ۚ وَ ٱعۡلَمُوٓاْ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَنِيٌّ حَمِيدٌ﴿٢٦٧﴾
Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo anfiqoo min tayyibati ma kasabtum wamimma akhrajna lakum mina alardi wala tayammamoo alkhabeetha minhu tunfiqoona walastum biakhitheehi illa an tughmidoo feehi waiʿlamoo anna Allaha ghaniyyun hameedun
O you who have believed, spend from the good things which you have earned and from that which We have produced for you from the earth. And do not aim toward the defective therefrom, spending [from that] while you would not take it [yourself] except with closed eyes. And know that Allāh is Free of need and Praiseworthy.
ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنُ يَعِدُكُمُ ٱلۡفَقۡرَ وَ يَأۡمُرُكُم بِٱلۡفَحۡشَآءِ ۖ وَ ٱللَّهُ يَعِدُكُم مَّغۡفِرَةࣰ مِّنۡهُ وَ فَضۡلࣰا ۗ وَ ٱللَّهُ وَٰسِعٌ عَلِيمࣱ﴿٢٦٨﴾
Alshshaytanu yaʿidukumu alfaqra wayamurukum bialfahshai waAllahu yaʿidukum maghfiratan minhu wafadlan waAllahu wasiʿun ʿaleemun
Satan threatens you with poverty and orders you to immorality, while Allāh promises you forgiveness from Him and bounty. And Allāh is all-Encompassing and Knowing.
يُؤۡتِي ٱلۡحِكۡمَةَ مَن يَشَآءُ ۚ وَ مَن يُؤۡتَ ٱلۡحِكۡمَةَ فَقَدۡ أُوتِيَ خَيۡرࣰا كَثِيرࣰا ۗ وَ مَا يَذَّكَّرُ إِلَّآ أُوْلُواْ ٱلۡأَلۡبَٰبِ﴿٢٦٩﴾
Yutee alhikmata man yashao waman yuta alhikmata faqad ootiya khayran katheeran wama yaththakkaru illa oloo alalbabi
He gives wisdom to whom He wills, and whoever has been given wisdom has certainly been given much good. And none will remember except those of understanding.
وَ مَآ أَنفَقۡتُم مِّن نَّفَقَةٍ أَوۡ نَذَرۡتُم مِّن نَّذۡرࣲ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَعۡلَمُهُۥ ۗ وَ مَا لِلظَّٰلِمِينَ مِنۡ أَنصَارٍ﴿٢٧٠﴾
Wama anfaqtum min nafaqatin aw nathartum min nathrin fainna Allaha yaʿlamuhu wama lilththalimeena min ansarin
And whatever you spend of expenditures or make of vows - indeed, Allāh knows of it. And for the wrongdoers there are no helpers.
إِن تُبۡدُواْ ٱلصَّدَقَٰتِ فَنِعِمَّا هِيَ ۖ وَ إِن تُخۡفُوهَا وَ تُؤۡتُوهَا ٱلۡفُقَرَآءَ فَهُوَ خَيۡرࣱ لَّكُمۡ ۚ وَ يُكَفِّرُ عَنكُم مِّن سَيِّـَٔاتِكُمۡ ۗ وَ ٱللَّهُ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُونَ خَبِيرࣱ﴿٢٧١﴾
In tubdoo alssadaqati faniʿimma hiya wain tukhfooha watutooha alfuqaraa fahuwa khayrun lakum wayukaffiru ʿankum min sayyiatikum waAllahu bima taʿmaloona khabeerun
If you disclose your charitable expenditures, they are good; but if you conceal them and give them to the poor, it is better for you, and He will remove from you some of your misdeeds [thereby]. And Allāh, of what you do, is [fully] Aware.
لَّيۡسَ عَلَيۡكَ هُدَىٰهُمۡ وَ لَٰكِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَهۡدِي مَن يَشَآءُ ۗ وَ مَا تُنفِقُواْ مِنۡ خَيۡرࣲ فَلِأَنفُسِكُمۡ ۚ وَ مَا تُنفِقُونَ إِلَّا ٱبۡتِغَآءَ وَجۡهِ ٱللَّهِ ۚ وَ مَا تُنفِقُواْ مِنۡ خَيۡرࣲ يُوَفَّ إِلَيۡكُمۡ وَ أَنتُمۡ لَا تُظۡلَمُونَ﴿٢٧٢﴾
Laysa ʿalayka hudahum walakinna Allaha yahdee man yashao wama tunfiqoo min khayrin falianfusikum wama tunfiqoona illa ibtighaa wajhi Allahi wama tunfiqoo min khayrin yuwaffa ilaykum waantum la tuthlamoona
Not upon you, [O Muḥammad], is [responsibility for] their guidance, but Allāh guides whom He wills. And whatever good you [believers] spend is for yourselves, and you do not spend except seeking the face [i.e., approval] of Allāh. And whatever you spend of good - it will be fully repaid to you, and you will not be wronged.
لِلۡفُقَرَآءِ ٱلَّذِينَ أُحۡصِرُواْ فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ لَا يَسۡتَطِيعُونَ ضَرۡبࣰا فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ يَحۡسَبُهُمُ ٱلۡجَاهِلُ أَغۡنِيَآءَ مِنَ ٱلتَّعَفُّفِ تَعۡرِفُهُم بِسِيمَٰهُمۡ لَا يَسۡـَٔلُونَ ٱلنَّاسَ إِلۡحَافࣰا ۗ وَ مَا تُنفِقُواْ مِنۡ خَيۡرࣲ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ بِهِۦ عَلِيمٌ﴿٢٧٣﴾
Lilfuqarai allatheena ohsiroo fee sabeeli Allahi la yastateeʿoona darban fee alardi yahsabuhumu aljahilu aghniyaa mina alttaʿaffufi taʿrifuhum biseemahum la yasaloona alnnasa ilhafan wama tunfiqoo min khayrin fainna Allaha bihi ʿaleemun
[Charity is] for the poor who have been restricted for the cause of Allāh, unable to move about in the land. An ignorant [person] would think them self-sufficient because of their restraint, but you will know them by their [characteristic] sign. They do not ask people persistently [or at all]. And whatever you spend of good - indeed, Allāh is Knowing of it.
ٱلَّذِينَ يُنفِقُونَ أَمۡوَٰلَهُم بِٱلَّيۡلِ وَ ٱلنَّهَارِ سِرࣰّا وَ عَلَانِيَةࣰ فَلَهُمۡ أَجۡرُهُمۡ عِندَ رَبِّهِمۡ وَ لَا خَوۡفٌ عَلَيۡهِمۡ وَ لَا هُمۡ يَحۡزَنُونَ﴿٢٧٤﴾
Allatheena yunfiqoona amwalahum biallayli waalnnahari sirran waʿalaniyatan falahum ajruhum ʿinda rabbihim wala khawfun ʿalayhim wala hum yahzanoona
Those who spend their wealth [in Allāh's way] by night and by day, secretly and publicly - they will have their reward with their Lord. And no fear will there be concerning them, nor will they grieve.
ٱلَّذِينَ يَأۡكُلُونَ ٱلرِّبَوٰاْ لَا يَقُومُونَ إِلَّا كَمَا يَقُومُ ٱلَّذِي يَتَخَبَّطُهُ ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنُ مِنَ ٱلۡمَسِّ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمۡ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّمَا ٱلۡبَيۡعُ مِثۡلُ ٱلرِّبَوٰاْ ۗ وَ أَحَلَّ ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡبَيۡعَ وَ حَرَّمَ ٱلرِّبَوٰاْ ۚ فَمَن جَآءَهُۥ مَوۡعِظَةࣱ مِّن رَّبِّهِۦ فَٱنتَهَىٰ فَلَهُۥ مَا سَلَفَ وَ أَمۡرُهُۥٓ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ ۖ وَ مَنۡ عَادَ فَأُوْلَٰٓئِكَ أَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلنَّارِ ۖ هُمۡ فِيهَا خَٰلِدُونَ﴿٢٧٥﴾
Allatheena yakuloona alrriba la yaqoomoona illa kama yaqoomu allathee yatakhabbatuhu alshshaytanu mina almassi thalika biannahum qaloo innama albayʿu mithlu alrriba waahalla Allahu albayʿa waharrama alrriba faman jaahu mawʿithatun min rabbihi faintaha falahu ma salafa waamruhu ila Allahi waman ʿada faolaika ashabu alnnari hum feeha khalidoona
Those who consume interest cannot stand [on the Day of Resurrection] except as one stands who is being beaten by Satan into insanity. That is because they say, "Trade is [just] like interest." But Allāh has permitted trade and has forbidden interest. So whoever has received an admonition from his Lord and desists may have what is past, and his affair rests with Allāh. But whoever returns [to dealing in interest or usury] - those are the companions of the Fire; they will abide eternally therein.
يَمۡحَقُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلرِّبَوٰاْ وَ يُرۡبِي ٱلصَّدَقَٰتِ ۗ وَ ٱللَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ كُلَّ كَفَّارٍ أَثِيمٍ﴿٢٧٦﴾
Yamhaqu Allahu alrriba wayurbee alssadaqati waAllahu la yuhibbu kulla kaffarin atheemin
Allāh destroys interest and gives increase for charities. And Allāh does not like every sinning disbeliever.
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَ عَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ وَ أَقَامُواْ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَ ءَاتَوُاْ ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ لَهُمۡ أَجۡرُهُمۡ عِندَ رَبِّهِمۡ وَ لَا خَوۡفٌ عَلَيۡهِمۡ وَ لَا هُمۡ يَحۡزَنُونَ﴿٢٧٧﴾
Inna allatheena amanoo waʿamiloo alssalihati waaqamoo alssalata waatawoo alzzakata lahum ajruhum ʿinda rabbihim wala khawfun ʿalayhim wala hum yahzanoona
Indeed, those who believe and do righteous deeds and establish prayer and give zakāh will have their reward with their Lord, and there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve.
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ ٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَ ذَرُواْ مَا بَقِيَ مِنَ ٱلرِّبَوٰٓاْ إِن كُنتُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ﴿٢٧٨﴾
Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo ittaqoo Allaha watharoo ma baqiya mina alrriba in kuntum mumineena
O you who have believed, fear Allāh and give up what remains [due to you] of interest, if you should be believers.
فَإِن لَّمۡ تَفۡعَلُواْ فَأۡذَنُواْ بِحَرۡبࣲ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ وَ رَسُولِهِۦ ۖ وَ إِن تُبۡتُمۡ فَلَكُمۡ رُءُوسُ أَمۡوَٰلِكُمۡ لَا تَظۡلِمُونَ وَ لَا تُظۡلَمُونَ﴿٢٧٩﴾
Fain lam tafʿaloo fathanoo biharbin mina Allahi warasoolihi wain tubtum falakum ruoosu amwalikum la tathlimoona wala tuthlamoona
And if you do not, then be informed of a war [against you] from Allāh and His Messenger. But if you repent, you may have your principal - [thus] you do no wrong, nor are you wronged.
وَ إِن كَانَ ذُو عُسۡرَةࣲ فَنَظِرَةٌ إِلَىٰ مَيۡسَرَةࣲ ۚ وَ أَن تَصَدَّقُواْ خَيۡرࣱ لَّكُمۡ إِن كُنتُمۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ﴿٢٨٠﴾
Wain kana thoo ʿusratin fanathiratun ila maysaratin waan tasaddaqoo khayrun lakum in kuntum taʿlamoona
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.
وَ ٱتَّقُواْ يَوۡمࣰا تُرۡجَعُونَ فِيهِ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ ۖ ثُمَّ تُوَفَّىٰ كُلُّ نَفۡسࣲ مَّا كَسَبَتۡ وَ هُمۡ لَا يُظۡلَمُونَ﴿٢٨١﴾
Waittaqoo yawman turjaʿoona feehi ila Allahi thumma tuwaffa kullu nafsin ma kasabat wahum la yuthlamoona
And fear a Day when you will be returned to Allāh. Then every soul will be compensated for what it earned, and they will not be wronged [i.e., treated unjustly].

O you who have believed, when you contract a debt for a specified term, write it down. And let a scribe write [it] between you in justice. Let no scribe refuse to write as Allāh has taught him. So let him write and let the one who has the obligation [i.e., the debtor] dictate. And let him fear Allāh, his Lord, and not leave anything out of it. But if the one who has the obligation is of limited understanding or weak or unable to dictate himself, then let his guardian dictate in justice. And bring to witness two witnesses from among your men. And if there are not two men [available], then a man and two women from those whom you accept as witnesses - so that if one of them [i.e., the women] errs, then the other can remind her. And let not the witnesses refuse when they are called upon. And do not be [too] weary to write it, whether it is small or large, for its [specified] term. That is more just in the sight of Allāh and stronger as evidence and more likely to prevent doubt between you, except when it is an immediate transaction which you conduct among yourselves. For [then] there is no blame upon you if you do not write it. And take witnesses when you conclude a contract. Let no scribe be harmed or any witness. For if you do so, indeed, it is [grave] disobedience in you. And fear Allāh. And Allāh teaches you. And Allāh is Knowing of all things.

And if you are on a journey and cannot find a scribe, then a security deposit [should be] taken. And if one of you entrusts another, then let him who is entrusted discharge his trust [faithfully] and let him fear Allāh, his Lord. And do not conceal testimony, for whoever conceals it - his heart is indeed sinful, and Allāh is Knowing of what you do.

To Allāh belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth. Whether you show what is within yourselves or conceal it, Allāh will bring you to account for it. Then He will forgive whom He wills and punish whom He wills, and Allāh is over all things competent.

The Messenger has believed in what was revealed to him from his Lord, and [so have] the believers. All of them have believed in Allāh and His angels and His books and His messengers, [saying], "We make no distinction between any of His messengers." And they say, "We hear and we obey. [We seek] Your forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the [final] destination."
لَا يُكَلِّفُ ٱللَّهُ نَفۡسًا إِلَّا وُسۡعَهَا ۚ لَهَا مَا كَسَبَتۡ وَ عَلَيۡهَا مَا ٱكۡتَسَبَتۡ ۗ رَبَّنَا لَا تُؤَاخِذۡنَآ إِن نَّسِينَآ أَوۡ أَخۡطَأۡنَا ۚ رَبَّنَا وَ لَا تَحۡمِلۡ عَلَيۡنَآ إِصۡرࣰا كَمَا حَمَلۡتَهُۥ عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِنَا ۚ رَبَّنَا وَ لَا تُحَمِّلۡنَا مَا لَا طَاقَةَ لَنَا بِهِۦ ۖ وَ ٱعۡفُ عَنَّا وَ ٱغۡفِرۡ لَنَا وَ ٱرۡحَمۡنَآ ۚ أَنتَ مَوۡلَىٰنَا فَٱنصُرۡنَا عَلَى ٱلۡقَوۡمِ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ﴿٢٨٦﴾

Allāh does not charge a soul except [with that within] its capacity. It will have [the consequence of] what [good] it has gained, and it will bear [the consequence of] what [evil] it has earned. "Our Lord, do not impose blame upon us if we have forgotten or erred. Our Lord, and lay not upon us a burden like that which You laid upon those before us. Our Lord, and burden us not with that which we have no ability to bear. And pardon us; and forgive us; and have mercy upon us. You are our protector, so give us victory over the disbelieving people."

About this surah
Name
Why the name Al-Baqarah?
Al-Baqarah (The Cow) has been so named from the story of the Cow occurring in this Surah (67-73). It has not, however, been used as a title to indicate the subject of the Surah. It will, therefore, be as wrong to translate the name Al-Baqarah into "The Cow" or "The Heifer" as to translate any English name, say, Mr. Baker, Mr. Rice, Mr. Wolf, etc., into their equivalents in other languages or vice versa, because this would imply that the Surah dealt with the subject of "The Cow". Many more Surahs of the Quran have been named in the same way because no comprehensive words exist in Arabic (in spite of their richness) to denote the wide scope of the subject discussed in them. As a matter of fact, all human languages suffer from the same limitation.
Sequence
Though it is a Madani Surah, it follows naturally a Makki Surah Al- Fatihah, which ended with the prayer: "Show us the straight way." It begins with the answer to that prayer, "This is the Book (that)...is guidance..."
The greater part of Al-Baqarah was revealed during the first two years of the Holy Prophet's life at Al-Madinah. The smaller part which was revealed at a later period has been included in this Surah because its contents are closely related to those dealt with in this Surah. For instance, the verses prohibiting interest were revealed during the last period of the Holy prophet's life but have been inserted in this Surah. For the same reason, the last two verses (284-286) of this Surah which were revealed at Makkah before the migration of the Holy Prophet to AI-Madinah have also been included in it.
Historical Background
In order to understand the meaning of this Surah, we should know its historical background:
- At Makkah, the Quran generally addressed the mushrik Quraish who were ignorant of Islam, but at Al-Madinah it was also concerned with the Jews who were acquainted with the creed of the Unity of Allah, Prophethood, Revelation, the Hereafter, and angels. They also professed to believe in the law which was revealed by Allah to their Prophet Moses (Allah's peace be upon him), and in principle, their way was the same (Islam) that was being taught by Prophet Muhammad (Allah's peace be upon him). But they had strayed away from it during the centuries of degeneration and had adopted many un-Islamic creeds, rites, and customs of which there was no mention and for which there was no sanction in the Torah. Not only this, they had tampered with the Torah by inserting their own explanations and interpretations into its text. They had distorted even that part of the Word of God which had remained intact in their Scriptures and taken out of it the real spirit of true religion and were now clinging to a lifeless frame of rituals. Consequently, their beliefs, their morals, and their conduct had gone to the lowest depths of degeneration. The pity is that they were not only satisfied with their condition but loved to cling to it. Besides this, they had no intention or inclination to accept any kind of reform. So they became bitter enemies of those who came to teach them the Right Way and did their worst to defeat every such effort. Though they were originally Muslims, they had swerved from the real Islam and made innovations and alterations in it and had fallen victims to hair splitting and sectarianism. They had forgotten and forsaken Allah and begun to serve mammon. So much so that they had even given up their original name "Muslim" and adopted the name "Jew" instead, and made religion the sole monopoly of the children of Israel.
- This was their religious condition when the Holy Prophet went to Al-Madinah and invited the Jews to the true religion. That is why more than one-third of this Surah has been addressed to the children of Israel. A critical review of their history, their moral degeneration, and their religious perversions have been made; side by side with this the high standard of morality and the fundamental principles of the pure religion have been put forward in order to bring out clearly the nature of the degeneration of the community of a prophet when it goes astray and to draw clear lines of demarcation between real piety and formalism, and the essentials and non-essentials of the true religion.
- At Makkah, Islam was mainly concerned with the propagation of its fundamental principles and the moral training of its followers. But after the migration of the Holy Prophet to Al-Madinah, where Muslims had come to settle from all over Arabia and where a tiny Islamic State had been set up with the help of the Ansar (local supporters), naturally, the Quran had to turn its attention to the social, cultural, economic, political and legal problems as well. This accounts for the difference between the themes of the surahs revealed at Makkah and those at Al-Madinah. Accordingly about half of this Surah deals with those principles and regulations which are essential for the integration and solidarity of a community and for the solution of its problems.
- After the migration to Al-Madinah, the struggle between Islam and un-Islam had also entered a new phase. Before this, the Believers, who propagated Islam among their own clans and tribes, had to face their opponents at their own risk. But the conditions had changed at Al-Madinah, where Muslims from all parts of Arabia had come and settled as one community and had established an independent city-state. Here it became a struggle for the survival of the Community itself, for the whole of non- Muslim Arabia was bent upon and united in crushing it totally. Hence the following instructions, upon which depended not only its success but its very survival, were revealed in this Surah:
- The Community should work with the utmost zeal to propagate its ideology and win over to its side the greatest possible number of people.
- It should so expose its opponents as to leave no room for doubt in the mind of any sensible person that they were adhering to an absolutely wrong position.
- It should infuse in its members (the majority of whom were homeless and indigent and surrounded on all sides by enemies) that courage and fortitude which is so indispensable to their very existence in the adverse circumstances in which they were struggling and to prepare them to face these boldly.
- It should also keep them ready and prepared to meet any armed menace, which might come from any side to suppress and crush their ideology, and to oppose it tooth and nail without minding the overwhelming numerical strength and the material resources of its enemies
- It should also create in them that courage that is needed for the eradication of evil ways and for the establishment of the Islamic Way instead.
- That is why Allah has revealed in this Surah such instructions as may help achieve all the above-mentioned objects.
- During this period, a new type of "Muslims," munafiqin (hypocrites), had begun to appear. Though signs of duplicity had been noticed during the last days at Makkah, they took a different shape at Al-Madinah. At Makkah, there were some people who professed Islam to be true but were not prepared to abide by the consequences of this profession and to sacrifice their worldly interests and relations and bear the afflictions which inevitably follow the acceptance of this creed. But at Al-Madinah different kinds of munafiqin (hypocrites) began to appear. There were some who had entered the Islamic fold merely to harm it from within. There were others who were surrounded by Muslims and, therefore, had become "Muslims" to safeguard their worldly interests. They, therefore, continued to have relations with the enemies so that if the latter became successful, their interests should remain secure. There were still others who had no strong conviction of the truth of Islam but had embraced it along with their clans. Lastly, there were those who were intellectually convinced of the truth of Islam but did not have enough moral courage to give up their former traditions, superstitions, and personal ambitions and live up to the Islamic moral standards and make sacrifices in its way.
- At the time of the revelation of Al-Baqarah, all sorts of hypocrites had begun to appear. Allah has, therefore, briefly pointed out their characteristics here. Afterward, when their evil characteristics and mischievous deeds became manifest, Allah sent detailed instructions about them.
Theme: Guidance
This Surah is an invitation to the Divine Guidance and all the stories, incidents, etc., revolve around this central theme. As this Surah has particularly been addressed to the Jews, many historical events have been cited from their own traditions to admonish and advise them that their own good lies in accepting the Guidance revealed to the Holy Prophet. They should, therefore, be the first to accept it because it was basically the same that was revealed to Prophet Moses (Allah's peace be upon him).
Topics and their Interconnection
These introductory verses declare the Quran to be the Book of Guidance, enunciate the articles of the Faith -- belief in Allah, Prophethood, and Life-after-death; divide mankind into three main groups with regard to its acceptance or rejection -- Believers, disbelievers, and hypocrites. 1-20
Allah invites mankind to accept the Guidance voluntarily and to submit to Him, the Lord and the Creator of the Universe and to believe in the Quran, His Guidance, and in the Life-after-death. 21 - 29
The story of the appointment of Adam as Allah's Vicegerent on Earth, of his life in the Garden, of his falling a prey to the temptations of Satan, of his repentance and its acceptance, has been related to show to mankind (Adam's offspring), that the only right thing for them is to accept and follow the Guidance. This story also shows that the Guidance of Islam is the same that was given to Adam and that it is the original religion of mankind. 30-39
In this portion invitation to the Guidance has particularly been extended to the children of Israel and their past and present attitude has been criticized to show that the cause of their degradation was their deviation from the Guidance. 40 - 120
The Jews have been exhorted to follow Prophet Muhammad (Allah's peace be upon him) who had come with the same Guidance and who was a descendant and follower of Prophet Abraham whom they highly honored as their ancestor, and professed to follow as a prophet. The story of the building of the Kaabah by him has been mentioned because it was going to be made the qiblah of the Muslim Community. 121-141
In this portion, the declaration of the change of qiblah from the Temple (Jerusalem) to the Kaabah (Makkah) has been made as a symbol of the change of leadership from the children of Israel to the Muslim Community, which has also been fore-warned to guard against those transgressions against the Guidance that had led to the deposition of the Jews. 142-152
In this portion, practical measures have been prescribed to enable the Muslims to discharge the heavy responsibilities of the leadership that had been entrusted to them for the promulgation of Guidance. Salat, Fast, Zakat, Haj, and Jihad have been prescribed for the moral training of the Ummat. The Believers have been exhorted to obey authority, to be just, to fulfill pledges, to observe treaties, to spend wealth, etc., in the way of Allah. Laws, rules, and regulations have been laid down for their organization, cohesion, and conduct of day-to-day life and for the solution of social, economic, political, and international problems; on the other hand, drinking, gambling, lending money on interest, etc., have been prohibited to keep the Ummat safe from disintegration. In between these, the basic articles of the Faith have been reiterated at suitable places, for these alone can enable and support one to stick to the Guidance. 153-251
These verses serve as an introduction to the prohibition of lending money on interest. The true conception of Allah, Revelation, and Life-after-death has been emphasized to keep alive the sense of accountability. The stories of Prophet Abraham (Allah's peace be upon him) and of the one who woke up after a sleep of hundred years have been related to show that Allah is All-Powerful and is able to raise the dead and call them to account. The Believers, therefore, should keep this fact in view and refrain from taking an interest in money. 252-260
The theme of 153-251 has been resumed and the Believers have been exhorted to spend in the way of Allah in order to please Him alone. In contrast to this, they have been warned against the evils of lending money on interest. Instructions have also been given for the honest conduct of day-to-day business transactions. 261-283
The basic articles of the Faith have been recapitulated here at the end of the Surah, just as they were enunciated at its beginning. Then the Surah ends with a prayer which the Muslim Community needed very much at that time when they were encountering untold hardships in the propagation of the Guidance. 284-286
