(2) سورة البقرة

2. Al-Baqarah
Introduction to this Surat.
In the Name of Allâh, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.
1.
Alif-Lâm-Mîm. [These letters are one of the miracles of the Qur'ân and none but Allâh (Alone) knows
their meanings].
2.
This is the Book (the Qur'ân), whereof there is no doubt, a guidance to those who are Al-Muttaqûn
[the pious and righteous persons who fear Allâh much (abstain from all kinds of sins and evil deeds
which He has forbidden) and love Allâh much (perform all kinds of good deeds which He has
ordained)].
3.
Who believe in the Ghaib [] and perform As-Salât (Iqâmat-as-Salât), [] and spend out of what we
have provided for them [i.e. give Zakât [], spend on themselves, their parents, their children, their
wives, etc., and also give charity to the poor and also in Allâh's Cause - Jihâd, etc.].
4.
And who believe in (the Qur'ân and the Sunnah) [] which has been sent down (revealed) to you
(Muhammad Peace be upon him ) and in [the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel), etc.] which
were sent down before you and they believe with certainty in the Hereafter. (Resurrection,
recompense of their good and bad deeds, Paradise and Hell, etc.).
5.
They are on (true) guidance from their Lord, and they are the successful.
6.
Verily, those who disbelieve, it is the same to them whether you (O Muhammad Peace be upon
him ) warn them or do not warn them, they will not believe.
7.
Allâh has set a seal on their hearts and on their hearings, (i.e. they are closed from accepting Allâh's
Guidance), and on their eyes there is a covering. Theirs will be a great torment.
8.
And of mankind, there are some (hypocrites) who say: "We believe in Allâh and the Last Day" while
in fact they believe not.
9.
They (think to) deceive Allâh and those who believe, while they only deceive themselves, and
perceive (it) not!
10.
In their hearts is a disease (of doubt and hypocrisy) and Allâh has increased their disease. A painful
torment is theirs because they used to tell lies.
11.
And when it is said to them: "Make not mischief on the earth," they say: "We are only
peacemakers."
12.
Verily! They are the ones who make mischief, but they perceive not.
13.
And when it is said to them (hypocrites): "Believe as the people (followers of Muhammad Peace be
upon him , Al-Ansâr and Al-Muhajirûn) have believed," they say: "Shall we believe as the fools have
believed?" Verily, they are the fools, but they know not.
14.
And when they meet those who believe, they say: "We believe," but when they are alone with their
Shayâtin (devils - polytheists, hypocrites, etc.), they say: "Truly, we are with you; verily, we were but
mocking."
15.
Allâh mocks at them and gives them increase in their wrong-doings to wander blindly.
16.
These are they who have purchased error for guidance, so their commerce was profitless. And they
were not guided.
17.
Their likeness is as the likeness of one who kindled a fire; then, when it lighted all around him, Allâh
took away their light and left them in darkness. (So) they could not see.
18.
They are deaf, dumb, and blind, so they return not (to the Right Path).
19.
Or like a rainstorm from the sky, wherein is darkness, thunder, and lightning. They thrust their
fingers in their ears to keep out the stunning thunderclap for fear of death. But Allâh ever
encompasses the disbelievers (i.e. Allâh will gather them all together).
20.
The lightning almost snatches away their sight, whenever it flashes for them, they walk therein, and
when darkness covers them, they stand still. And if Allâh willed, He could have taken away their
hearing and their sight. Certainly, Allâh has power over all things.
21.
O mankind! Worship your Lord (Allâh), Who created you and those who were before you so that you
may become Al-Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2).
22.
Who has made the earth a resting place for you, and the sky as a canopy, and sent down water
(rain) from the sky and brought forth therewith fruits as a provision for you. Then do not set up rivals
unto Allâh (in worship) while you know (that He Alone has the right to be worshipped). []
23.
And if you (Arab pagans, Jews, and Christians) are in doubt concerning that which We have sent
down (i.e. the Qur'ân) to Our slave (Muhammad Peace be upon him ), then produce a Sûrah
(chapter) of the like thereof and call your witnesses (supporters and helpers) besides Allâh, if you
are truthful.
24.
But if you do it not, and you can never do it, then fear the Fire (Hell) whose fuel is men and stones,
prepared for the disbelievers.
25.
And give glad tidings to those who believe and do righteous good deeds, that for them will be
Gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise). Every time they will be provided with a fruit therefrom,
they will say: "This is what we were provided with before," and they will be given things in
resemblance (i.e. in the same form but different in taste) and they shall have therein Azwâjun
Mutahharatun [] (purified mates or wives), (having no menses, stools, urine, etc.) and they will abide
therein forever.
26.
Verily, Allâh is not ashamed to set forth a parable even of a mosquito or so much more when it is
bigger (or less when it is smaller) than it. And as for those who believe, they know that it is the Truth
from their Lord, but as for those who disbelieve, they say: "What did Allâh intend by this parable?"
By it He misleads many, and many He guides thereby. And He misleads thereby only those who are
Al-Fâsiqûn (the rebellious, disobedient to Allâh). []
27.
Those who break Allâh's Covenant after ratifying it, and sever what Allâh has ordered to be joined
(as regards Allâh's Religion of Islâmic Monotheism, and to practise its legal laws on the earth and
also as regards keeping good relations with kith and kin []), and do mischief on earth, it is they who
are the losers.
28.
How can you disbelieve in Allâh? Seeing that you were dead and He gave you life. Then He will give
you death, then again will bring you to life (on the Day of Resurrection) and then unto Him you will
return.
29.
He it is Who created for you all that is on earth. Then He Istawâ (rose over) towards the heaven and
made them seven heavens and He is the All-Knower of everything.
30.
And (remember) when your Lord said to the angels: "Verily, I am going to place (mankind)
generations after generations on earth." They said: "Will You place therein those who will make
mischief therein and shed blood, - while we glorify You with praises and thanks (Exalted be You
above all that they associate with You as partners) and sanctify You." He (Allâh) said: "I know that
which you do not know."
31.
And He taught Adam all the names (of everything) [], then He showed them to the angels and said,
"Tell Me the names of these if you are truthful."
32.
They (angels) said: "Glory be to You, we have no knowledge except what you have taught us. Verily,
it is You, the All-Knower, the All-Wise."
33.
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 Ghaib (unseen) in the heavens and the earth, and I know
what you reveal and what you have been concealing?"
34.
And (remember) when We said to the angels: "Prostrate yourselves before Adam.". And they
prostrated except Iblîs (Satan), he refused and was proud and was one of the disbelievers
(disobedient to Allâh).
35.
And We said: "O Adam! Dwell you and your wife in the Paradise and eat both of you freely with
pleasure and delight of things therein as wherever you will, but come not near this tree or you both
will be of the Zâlimûn (wrong-doers)."
36.
Then the Shaitân (Satan) made them slip therefrom (the Paradise), and got them out from that in
which they were. We said: "Get you down, all, with enmity between yourselves. On earth will be a
dwelling place for you and an enjoyment for a time."
37.
Then Adam received from his Lord Words []. And his Lord pardoned him (accepted his repentance).
Verily, He is the One Who forgives (accepts repentance), the Most Merciful.
38.
We said: "Get down all of you from this place (the Paradise), then whenever there comes to you
Guidance from Me, and whoever follows My Guidance, there shall be no fear on them, nor shall they
grieve.
39.
But those who disbelieve and belie Our Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations,
etc.) such are the dwellers of the Fire, they shall abide therein forever.
40.
O Children of Israel! Remember My Favour which I bestowed upon you, and fulfill (your obligations
to) My Covenant (with you) so that I fulfill (My Obligations to) your covenant (with Me), and fear none
but Me.
41.
And believe in what I have sent down (this Qur'ân), confirming that which is with you, [the Taurât
(Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)], and be not the first to disbelieve therein, and buy not with My
Verses [the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)] a small price (i.e. getting a small gain by selling
My Verses), and fear Me and Me Alone. (Tafsir At-Tabarî, Vol. I, Page 253).
42.
And mix not truth with falsehood, nor conceal the truth [i.e. Muhammad Peace be upon him is
Allâh's Messenger and his qualities are written in your Scriptures, the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel
(Gospel)] while you know (the truth) [].
43.
And perform As-Salât (Iqâmat-as-Salât), and give Zakât, and Irka' (i.e. bow down or submit
yourselves with obedience to Allâh) along with ArRaki'ûn. []
44.
Enjoin you Al-Birr (piety and righteousness and each and every act of obedience to Allâh) on the
people and you forget (to practise it) yourselves, [] while you recite the Scripture [the Taurât
(Torah)]! Have you then no sense?
45.
And seek help in patience and As-Salât (the prayer) and truly it is extremely heavy and hard except
for Al-Khâshi'ûn [i.e. the true believers in Allâh - those who obey Allâh with full submission, fear
much from His Punishment, and believe in His Promise (Paradise, etc.) and in His Warnings (Hell,
etc.)].
46.
(They are those) who are certain that they are going to meet their Lord, and that unto Him they are
going to return.
47.
O Children of Israel! Remember My Favour which I bestowed upon you and that I preferred you to
the 'Alamîn (mankind and jinns) (of your time period, in the past).
48.
And fear a Day (of Judgement) when a person shall not avail another, nor will intercession be
accepted from him nor will compensation be taken from him nor will they be helped.
49.
And (remember) when We delivered you from Fir'aun's (Pharaoh) people, who were afflicting you
with a horrible torment, killing your sons and sparing your women, and therein was a mighty trial
from your Lord.
50.
And (remember) when We separated the sea for you and saved you and drowned Fir'aun's
(Pharaoh) people while you were looking (at them, when the sea-water covered them).
51.
And (remember) when We appointed for Mûsa (Moses) forty nights, and (in his absence) you took
the calf (for worship), and you were Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong-doers, etc.).
52.
Then after that We forgave you so that you might be grateful.
53.
And (remember) when We gave Mûsa (Moses) the Scripture [the Taurât (Torah)] and the criterion
(of right and wrong) so that you may be guided aright.
54.
And (remember) when Mûsa (Moses) said to his people: "O my people! Verily, you have wronged
yourselves by worshipping the calf. So turn in repentance to your Creator and kill yourselves (the
innocent kill the wrongdoers among you), that will be better for you with your Lord." Then He
accepted your repentance. Truly, He is the One Who accepts repentance, the Most Merciful.
55.
And (remember) when you said: "O Mûsa (Moses)! We shall never believe in you till we see Allâh
plainly." But you were seized with a thunderbolt (lightning) while you were looking.
56.
Then We raised you up after your death, so that you might be grateful.
57.
And We shaded you with clouds and sent down on you Al-Manna [] and the quails, (saying): "Eat of
the good lawful things We have provided for you," (but they rebelled). And they did not wrong Us but
they wronged themselves.
58.
And (remember) when We said: "Enter this town (Jerusalem) and eat bountifully therein with
pleasure and delight wherever you wish, and enter the gate in prostration (or bowing with humility)
and say: 'Forgive us,' and We shall forgive you your sins and shall increase (reward) for the gooddoers."
59.
But those who did wrong changed the word from that which had been told to them for another, so
We sent upon the wrong-doers Rijzan (a punishment) [] from the heaven because of their rebelling
against Allâh's Obedience. (Tafsir At-Tabarî, Vol. I, Page 305).
60.
And (remember) when Mûsa (Moses) asked for water for his people, We said: "Strike the stone with
your stick." Then gushed forth therefrom twelve springs. Each (group of) people knew its own place
for water. "Eat and drink of that which Allâh has provided and do not act corruptly, making mischief
on the earth."
61.
And (remember) when you said, "O Mûsa (Moses)! We cannot endure one kind of food. So invoke
your Lord for us to bring forth for us of what the earth grows, its herbs, its cucumbers, its Fûm
(wheat or garlic), its lentils and its onions." He said, "Would you exchange that which is better for
that which is lower? Go you down to any town and you shall find what you want!" And they were
covered with humiliation and misery, and they drew on themselves the Wrath of Allâh. That was
because they used to disbelieve the Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations,
etc.) of Allâh and killed the Prophets wrongfully. That was because they disobeyed and used to
transgress the bounds (in their disobedience to Allâh, i.e. commit crimes and sins).
62.
Verily! Those who believe and those who are Jews and Christians, and Sabians, [] whoever believes
in Allâh and the Last Day and do righteous good deeds shall have their reward with their Lord, on
them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve [].
63.
And (O Children of Israel, remember) when We took your covenant and We raised above you the
Mount (saying): "Hold fast to that which We have given you, and remember that which is therein so
that you may become Al-Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2).
64.
Then after that you turned away. Had it not been for the Grace and Mercy of Allâh upon you, indeed
you would have been among the losers.
65.
And indeed you knew those amongst you who transgressed in the matter of the Sabbath (i.e.
Saturday). We said to them: "Be you monkeys, despised and rejected."
66.
So We made this punishment an example to their own and to succeeding generations and a lesson
to those who are Al-Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2).
67.
And (remember) when Mûsa (Moses) said to his people: "Verily, Allâh commands you that you
slaughter a cow." They said, "Do you make fun of us?" He said, "I take Allâh's Refuge from being
among Al-Jâhilûn (the ignorants or the foolish)."
68.
They said, "Call upon your Lord for us that He may make plain to us what it is!" He said, "He says,
'Verily, it is a cow neither too old nor too young, but (it is) between the two conditions', so do what
you are commanded."
69.
They said, "Call upon your Lord for us to make plain to us its colour." He said, "He says, 'It is a
yellow cow, bright in its colour, pleasing to the beholders.' "
70.
They said, "Call upon your Lord for us to make plain to us what it is. Verily to us all cows are alike,
And surely, if Allâh wills, we will be guided."
71.
He [Mûsa (Moses)] said, "He says, 'It is a cow neither trained to till the soil nor water the fields,
sound, having no other colour except bright yellow.' " They said, "Now you have brought the truth."
So they slaughtered it though they were near to not doing it.
72.
And (remember) when you killed a man and fell into dispute among yourselves as to the crime. But
Allâh brought forth that which you were hiding.
73.
So We said: "Strike him (the dead man) with a piece of it (the cow)." Thus Allâh brings the dead to
life and shows you His Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) so that you
may understand.
74.
Then, after that, your hearts were hardened and became as stones or even worse in hardness. And
indeed, there are stones out of which rivers gush forth, and indeed, there are of them (stones) which
split asunder so that water flows from them, and indeed, there are of them (stones) which fall down
for fear of Allâh. And Allâh is not unaware of what you do.
75.
Do you (faithful believers) covet that they will believe in your religion inspite of the fact that a party of
them (Jewish rabbis) used to hear the Word of Allâh [the Taurât (Torah)], then they used to change
it knowingly after they understood it?
76.
And when they (Jews) meet those who believe (Muslims), they say, "We believe", but when they
meet one another in private, they say, "Shall you (Jews) tell them (Muslims) what Allâh has revealed
to you [Jews, about the description and the qualities of Prophet Muhammad Peace be upon him ,
that which are written in the Taurât (Torah)] [], that they (Muslims) may argue with you (Jews) about
it before your Lord?" Have you (Jews) then no understanding?
77.
Know they (Jews) not that Allâh knows what they conceal and what they reveal?
78.
And there are among them (Jews) unlettered people, who know not the Book, but they trust upon
false desires and they but guess.
79.
Then woe to those who write the Book with their own hands and then say, "This is from Allâh," to
purchase with it a little price! Woe to them for what their hands have written and woe to them for
that they earn thereby.
80.
And they (Jews) say, "The Fire (i.e. Hell-fire on the Day of Resurrection) shall not touch us but for a
few numbered days." Say (O Muhammad Peace be upon him to them): "Have you taken a covenant
from Allâh, so that Allâh will not break His Covenant? Or is it that you say of Allâh what you know
not?"
81.
Yes! Whosoever earns evil and his sin has surrounded him, they are dwellers of the Fire (i.e. Hell);
they will dwell therein forever.
82.
And those who believe (in the Oneness of Allâh swt- Islâmic Monotheism) and do righteous good
deeds, they are dwellers of Paradise, they will dwell therein forever.
83.
And (remember) when We took a covenant from the Children of Israel, (saying): Worship none but
Allâh (Alone) and be dutiful and good to parents, and to kindred, and to orphans and Al-Masâkîn []
(the poor), [Tafsir At-Tabarî, Vol. 10, Page 158 (Verse 9:60)] and speak good to people [i.e. enjoin
righteousness and forbid evil, and say the truth about Muhammad Peace be upon him ], and
perform As-Salât (Iqâmat-as-Salât), and give Zakât. Then you slid back, except a few of you, while
you are backsliders. (Tafsir Al-Qurtubî, Vol. 2, Page 392).
84.
And (remember) when We took your covenant (saying): Shed not the blood of your people, nor turn
out your own people from their dwellings. Then, (this) you ratified and (to this) you bear witness.
85.
After this, it is you who kill one another and drive out a party of you from their homes, assist (their
enemies) against them, in sin and transgression. And if they come to you as captives, you ransom
them, although their expulsion was forbidden to you. Then do you believe in a part of the Scripture
and reject the rest? Then what is the recompense of those who do so among you, except disgrace
in the life of this world, and on the Day of Resurrection they shall be consigned to the most grievous
torment. And Allâh is not unaware of what you do.

[wahhab]

86.
Those are they who have bought the life of this world at the price of the Hereafter. Their torment
shall not be lightened nor shall they be helped.
87.
And indeed, We gave Mûsa (Moses) the Book and followed him up with a succession of
Messengers. And We gave 'Iesa (Jesus), the son of Maryam (Mary), clear signs and supported him
with Rûh-ul-Qudus [Jibrael (Gabriel) >>]. Is it that whenever there came to you a Messenger with
what you yourselves desired not, you grew arrogant? Some, you disbelieved and some, you killed.
88.
And they say, "Our hearts are wrapped (i.e. do not hear or understand Allâh's Word)." Nay, Allâh
has cursed them for their disbelief, so little is that which they believe.
89.
And when there came to them (the Jews), a Book (this Qur'ân) from Allâh confirming what is with
them [the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)], although aforetime they had invoked Allâh (for
coming of Muhammad Peace be upon him ) in order to gain victory over those who disbelieved,
then when there came to them that which they had recognised, they disbelieved in it. So let the
Curse of Allâh be on the disbelievers.
90.
How bad is that for which they have sold their ownselves, that they should disbelieve in that which
Allâh has revealed (the Qur'ân), grudging that Allâh should reveal of His Grace unto whom He will of
His slaves. So they have drawn on themselves wrath upon wrath. And for the disbelievers, there is
disgracing torment.
91.
And when it is said to them (the Jews), "Believe in what Allâh has sent down," they say, "We believe
in what was sent down to us." And they disbelieve in that which came after it, while it is the truth
confirming what is with them. Say (O Muhammad Peace be upon him to them): "Why then have you
killed the Prophets of Allâh aforetime, if you indeed have been believers?"
92.
And indeed Mûsa (Moses) came to you with clear proofs, yet you worshipped the calf after he left,
and you were Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong-doers).
93.
And (remember) when We took your covenant and We raised above you the Mount (saying), "Hold
firmly to what We have given you and hear (Our Word). They said, "We have heard and disobeyed."
And their hearts absorbed (the worship of) the calf because of their disbelief. Say: "Worst indeed is
that which your faith enjoins on you if you are believers."
94.
Say to (them): "If the home of the Hereafter with Allâh is indeed for you specially and not for others,
of mankind, then long for death if you are truthful."
95.
But they will never long for it because of what their hands have sent before them (i.e. what they
have done). And Allâh is All-Aware of the Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong-doers).
96.
And verily, you will find them (the Jews) the greediest of mankind for life and (even greedier) than
those who - ascribe partners to Allâh (and do not believe in Resurrection - Magians, pagans, and
idolaters, etc.). Everyone of them wishes that he could be given a life of a thousand years. But the
grant of such life will not save him even a little from (due) punishment. And Allâh is All-Seer of what
they do.
97.
Say (O Muhammad Peace be upon him ): "Whoever is an enemy to Jibrael (Gabriel) (let him die in
his fury), for indeed he has brought it (this Qur'ân) down to your heart by Allâh's Permission,
confirming what came before it [i.e. the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)] and guidance and
glad tidings for the believers.
98.
"Whoever is an enemy to Allâh, His Angels, His Messengers, Jibrael (Gabriel) and Mikael (Michael),
then verily, Allâh is an enemy to the disbelievers."
99.
And indeed We have sent down to you manifest Ayât (these Verses of the Qur'ân which inform in
detail about the news of the Jews and their secret intentions, etc.), and none disbelieve in them but
Fâsiqûn (those who rebel against Allâh's Command).
100.
Is it not (the case) that every time they make a covenant, some party among them throw it aside?
Nay! the truth is most of them believe not.
101.
And when there came to them a Messenger from Allâh (i.e. Muhammad Peace be upon him )
confirming what was with them, a party of those who were given the Scripture threw away the Book
of Allâh behind their backs as if they did not know!
102.
They followed what the Shayâtin (devils) gave out (falsely of the magic) in the lifetime of Sulaimân
(Solomon). Sulaimân did not disbelieve, but the Shayâtin (devils) disbelieved, teaching men magic
and such things that came down at Babylon to the two angels, Hârût and Mârût, but neither of these
two (angels) taught anyone (such things) till they had said, "We are only for trial, so disbelieve not
(by learning this magic from us)." And from these (angels) people learn that by which they cause
separation between man and his wife, but they could not thus harm anyone except by Allâh's Leave.
And they learn that which harms them and profits them not. And indeed they knew that the buyers of
it (magic) would have no share in the Hereafter. And how bad indeed was that for which they sold
their ownselves, if they but knew.
103.
And if they had believed, and guarded themselves from evil and kept their duty to Allâh, far better
would have been the reward from their Lord, if they but knew!
104.
O you who believe! Say not (to the Messenger Peace be upon him ) Râ'ina [] but say Unzurna (Do
make us understand) and hear. And for the disbelievers there is a painful torment. (See Verse 4:46)
105.
Neither those who disbelieve among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) nor Al-
Mushrikûn (the disbelievers in the Oneness of Allâh, idolaters, polytheists, pagans, etc.) like that
there should be sent down unto you any good from your Lord. But Allâh chooses for His Mercy
whom He wills. And Allâh is the Owner of Great Bounty.
106.
Whatever a Verse (revelation) do We abrogate or cause to be forgotten, We bring a better one or
similar to it. Know you not that Allâh is able to do all things?
107.
Know you not that it is Allâh to Whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth? And
besides Allâh you have neither any Walî (protector or guardian) nor any helper.
108.
Or do you want to ask your Messenger (Muhammad Peace be upon him ) as Mûsa (Moses) was
asked before (i.e. show us openly our Lord?) And he who changes Faith for disbelief, verily, he has
gone astray from the right way.
109.
Many of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) wish that if they could turn you away as
disbelievers after you have believed, out of envy from their ownselves, even, after the truth (that
Muhammad Peace be upon him is Allâh's Messenger) has become manifest unto them. But forgive
and overlook, till Allâh brings His Command. Verily, Allâh is Able to do all things.
110.
And perform As-Salât (Iqâmat-as-Salât), and give Zakât, and whatever of good (deeds that Allâh
loves) you send forth for yourselves before you, you shall find it with Allâh. Certainly, Allâh is All-
Seer of what you do.
111.
And they say, "None shall enter Paradise unless he be a Jew or a Christian." These are their own
desires. Say (O Muhammad Peace be upon him ), "Produce your proof if you are truthful."
112.
Yes, but whoever submits his face (himself) to Allâh (i.e. follows Allâh's Religion of Islâmic
Monotheism) and he is a Muhsin (good-doer i.e. performs good deeds totally for Allâh's sake only
without any show off or to gain praise or fame, etc., and in accordance with the Sunnah of Allâh's
Messenger Muhammad Peace be upon him ) then his reward is with his Lord (Allâh), on such shall
be no fear, nor shall they grieve. [See Tafsir Ibn Kathîr, Vol.1, Page 154].
113.
The Jews said that the Christians follow nothing (i.e. are not on the right religion); and the Christians
said that the Jews follow nothing (i.e. are not on the right religion); though they both recite the
Scripture. Like unto their word, said (the pagans) who know not. Allâh will judge between them on
the Day of Resurrection about that wherein they have been differing.
114.
And who is more unjust than those who forbid that Allâh's Name be glorified and mentioned much
(i.e. prayers and invocations, etc.) in Allâh's Mosques and strive for their ruin? It was not fitting that
such should themselves enter them (Allâh's Mosques) except in fear. For them there is disgrace in
this world, and they will have a great torment in the Hereafter.
115.
And to Allâh belong the east and the west, so wherever you turn yourselves or your faces there is
the Face of Allâh (and He is High above, over His Throne). Surely! Allâh is All-Sufficient for His
creatures' needs, All-Knowing.
116.
And they (Jews, Christians and pagans) say: Allâh has begotten a son (children or offspring). []
Glory be to Him (Exalted be He above all that they associate with Him). Nay, to Him belongs all that
is in the heavens and on earth, and all surrender with obedience (in worship) to Him.
117.
The Originator of the heavens and the earth. When He decrees a matter, He only says to it : "Be!" -
and it is.
118.
And those who have no knowledge say: "Why does not Allâh speak to us (face to face) or why does
not a sign come to us?" So said the people before them words of similar import. Their hearts are
alike, We have indeed made plain the signs for people who believe with certainty.
119.
Verily, We have sent you (O Muhammad Peace be upon him ) with the truth (Islâm), a bringer of
glad tidings (for those who believe in what you brought, that they will enter Paradise) and a warner
(for those who disbelieve in what you brought, they will enter the Hell-fire). [] And you will not be
asked about the dwellers of the blazing Fire.
120.
Never will the Jews nor the Christians be pleased with you (O Muhammad Peace be upon him ) till
you follow their religion. Say: "Verily, the Guidance of Allâh (i.e. Islâmic Monotheism) that is the
(only) Guidance. And if you (O Muhammad Peace be upon him ) were to follow their (Jews and
Christians) desires after what you have received of Knowledge (i.e. the Qur'ân), then you would
have against Allâh neither any Walî (protector or guardian) nor any helper.
121.
Those (who embraced Islâm from Banî Israel) to whom We gave the Book [the Taurât (Torah)] [or
those (Muhammad's Peace be upon him companions) to whom We have given the Book (the
Qur'ân)] recite it (i.e. obey its orders and follow its teachings) as it should be recited (i.e. followed),
they are the ones that believe therein. And whoso disbelieves in it (the Qur'ân), those are they who
are the losers. (Tafsir Al-Qurtubî. Vol. 2, Page 95).
122.
O Children of Israel! Remember My Favour which I bestowed upon you and that I preferred you to
the 'Alamîn (mankind and jinns) (of your time-period, in the past).
123.
And fear the Day (of Judgement) when no person shall avail another, nor shall compensation be
accepted from him, nor shall intercession be of use to him, nor shall they be helped.
124.
And (remember) when the Lord of Ibrâhim (Abraham) [i.e., Allâh] tried him with (certain)
Commands, which he fulfilled. He (Allâh) said (to him), "Verily, I am going to make you a leader
(Prophet) of mankind." [Ibrâhim (Abraham)] said, "And of my offspring (to make leaders)." (Allâh)
said, "My Covenant (Prophethood, etc.) includes not Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong-doers)."
125.
And (remember) when We made the House (the Ka'bah at Makkah) a place of resort for mankind
and a place of safety. And take you (people) the Maqâm (place) of Ibrâhim (Abraham) [or the stone
on which Ibrâhim (Abraham) >> stood while he was building the Ka'bah] as a place of prayer (for
some of your prayers, e.g. two Rak'at after the Tawâf of the Ka'bah at Makkah), and We
commanded Ibrâhim (Abraham) and Ismâ'il (Ishmael) that they should purify My House (the Ka'bah
at Makkah) for those who are circumambulating it, or staying (I'tikâf), or bowing or prostrating
themselves (there, in prayer).
126.
And (remember) when Ibrâhim (Abraham) said, "My Lord, make this city (Makkah) a place of
security and provide its people with fruits, such of them as believe in Allâh and the Last Day." He
(Allâh) answered: "As for him who disbelieves, I shall leave him in contentment for a while, then I
shall compel him to the torment of the Fire, and worst indeed is that destination!"
127.
And (remember) when Ibrâhim (Abraham) and (his son) Ismâ'il (Ishmael) were raising the
foundations of the House (the Ka'bah at Makkah), (saying), "Our Lord! Accept (this service) from us.
Verily! You are the All-Hearer, the All-Knower." []
128.
"Our Lord! And make us submissive unto You and of our offspring a nation submissive unto You,
and show us our Manâsik [] (all the ceremonies of pilgrimage - Hajj and 'Umrah, etc.), and accept
our repentance. Truly, You are the One Who accepts repentance, the Most Merciful.
129.
"Our Lord! Send amongst them a Messenger of their own (and indeed Allâh answered their
invocation by sending Muhammad Peace be upon him ), who shall recite unto them Your Verses
and instruct them in the Book (this Qur'ân) and Al-Hikmah (full knowledge of the Islâmic laws and
jurisprudence or wisdom or Prophethood, etc.), and sanctify them. Verily! You are the All-Mighty, the
All-Wise."
130.
And who turns away from the religion of Ibrâhim (Abraham) (i.e. Islâmic Monotheism) except him
who befools himself? Truly, We chose him in this world and verily, in the Hereafter he will be among
the righteous.
131.
When his Lord said to him, "Submit (i.e. be a Muslim)!" He said, "I have submitted myself (as a
Muslim) to the Lord of the 'Alamîn (mankind, jinns and all that exists)."
132.
And this (submission to Allâh, Islâm) was enjoined by Ibrâhim (Abraham) upon his sons and by
Ya'qûb (Jacob), (saying), "O my sons! Allâh has chosen for you the (true) religion, then die not
except in the Faith of Islâm (as Muslims - Islâmic Monotheism)."
133.
Or were you witnesses when death approached Ya'qûb (Jacob)? When he said unto his sons,
"What will you worship after me?" They said, "We shall worship your Ilâh [] (God - Allâh), the Ilâh
(God) of your fathers, Ibrâhim (Abraham), Ismâ'il (Ishmael), Ishâque (Isaac), One Ilâh (God), and to
Him we submit (in Islâm)."
134.
That was a nation who has passed away. They shall receive the reward of what they earned and
you of what you earn. And you will not be asked of what they used to do.
135.
And they say, "Be Jews or Christians, then you will be guided." Say (to them, O Muhammad Peace
be upon him ), "Nay, (We follow) only the religion of Ibrâhim (Abraham), Hanifa [Islâmic
Monotheism, i.e. to worship none but Allâh (Alone)], and he was not of Al-Mushrikûn (those who
worshipped others along with Allâh - see V.2:105)." []
136.
Say (O Muslims), "We believe in Allâh and that which has been sent down to us and that which has
been sent down to Ibrâhim (Abraham), Ismâ'il (Ishmael), Ishâque (Isaac), Ya'qûb (Jacob), and to Al-
Asbât [the twelve sons of Ya'qûb (Jacob)], and that which has been given to Mûsa (Moses) and
'Iesa (Jesus), and that which has been given to the Prophets from their Lord. We make no
distinction between any of them, and to Him we have submitted (in Islâm)."
137.
So if they believe in the like of that which you believe, then they are rightly guided, but if they turn
away, then they are only in opposition. So Allâh will suffice you against them. And He is the All-
Hearer, the All-Knower.
138.
[Our Sibghah (religion) is] the Sibghah (Religion) of Allâh (Islâm) and which Sibghah (religion) can
be better than Allâh's? And we are His worshippers. [Tafsir Ibn Kathîr.]
139.
Say (O Muhammad Peace be upon him to the Jews and Christians), "Dispute you with us about
Allâh while He is our Lord and your Lord? And we are to be rewarded for our deeds and you for your
deeds. [] And we are sincere to Him in worship and obedience (i.e. we worship Him Alone and none
else, and we obey His Orders)."
140.
Or say you that Ibrâhim (Abraham), Ismâ'il (Ishmael), Ishâque (Isaac), Ya'qûb (Jacob) and Al-Asbât
[the twelve sons of Ya'qûb (Jacob)] were Jews or Christians? Say, "Do you know better or does
Allâh (knows better… that they all were Muslims)? And who is more unjust than he who conceals
the testimony [i.e. to believe in Prophet Muhammad Peace be upon him when he comes, written in
their Books. (See Verse 7:157)] he has from Allâh? And Allâh is not unaware of what you do."
141.
That was a nation who has passed away. They shall receive the reward of what they earned, and
you of what you earn. And you will not be asked of what they used to do.
142.
The fools (pagans, hypocrites, and Jews) among the people will say, "What has turned them
(Muslims) from their Qiblah [prayer direction (towards Jerusalem)] to which they were used to face
in prayer." Say, (O Muhammad SAW) "To Allâh belong both, east and the west. He guides whom He
wills to a Straight Way."
143.
Thus We have made you [true Muslims - real believers of Islâmic Monotheism, true followers of
Prophet Muhammad SAW and his Sunnah (legal ways)], a Wasat (just) (and the best) nation, that
you be witnesses over mankind[] and the Messenger (Muhammad SAW) be a witness over you. And
We made the Qiblah (prayer direction towards Jerusalem) which you used to face, only to test those
who followed the Messenger (Muhammad SAW) from those who would turn on their heels (i.e.
disobey the Messenger). Indeed it was great (heavy) except for those whom Allâh guided. And Allâh
would never make your faith (prayers) to be lost (i.e. your prayers offered towards Jerusalem). Truly,
Allâh is full of kindness, the Most Merciful towards mankind.
144.
Verily! We have seen the turning of your (Muhammad's SAW) face towards the heaven. Surely, We
shall turn you to a Qiblah (prayer direction) that shall please you, so turn your face in the direction of
Al-Masjid- al-Harâm (at Makkah). And wheresoever you people are, turn your faces (in prayer) in
that direction. Certainly, the people who were given the Scriptures (i.e. Jews and the Christians)
know well that, that (your turning towards the direction of the Ka'bah at Makkah in prayers) is the
truth from their Lord. And Allâh is not unaware of what they do.
145.
And even if you were to bring to the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) all the Ayât
(proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.), they would not follow your Qiblah
(prayer direction), nor are you going to follow their Qiblah (prayer direction). And they will not follow
each other's Qiblah (prayer direction). Verily, if you follow their desires after that which you have
received of knowledge (from Allâh), then indeed you will be one of the Zâlimûn (polytheists, wrongdoers,
etc.).

[wahhab]

loves Al-
Muhsinûn[] (the good-doers).
196.
And perform properly (i.e. all the ceremonies according to the ways of Prophet Muhammad SAW),
the Hajj and 'Umrah (i.e. the pilgrimage to Makkah) for Allâh. But if you are prevented (from
completing them), sacrifice a Hady (animal, i.e. a sheep, a cow, or a camel, etc.) such as you can
afford, and do not shave your heads until the Hady reaches the place of sacrifice. And whosoever of
you is ill or has an ailment in his scalp (necessitating shaving), he must pay a Fidyah (ransom) of
either observing Saum (fasts) (three days) or giving Sadaqah (charity - feeding six poor persons) or
offering sacrifice (one sheep). Then if you are in safety and whosoever performs the 'Umrah in the
months of Hajj, before (performing) the Hajj, (i.e. Hajj-at-Tamattu' and Al-Qirân), he must slaughter
a Hady such as he can afford, but if he cannot afford it, he should observe Saum (fasts) three days
during the Hajj and seven days after his return (to his home), making ten days in all. This is for him
whose family is not present at Al-Masjid-al-Harâm (i.e. non-resident of Makkah). And fear Allâh
much and know that Allâh is Severe in punishment.[]
197.
The Hajj (pilgrimage) is (in) the well-known (lunar year) months (i.e. the 10th month, the 11th month
and the first ten days of the 12th month of the Islâmic calendar, i.e. two months and ten days). So
whosoever intends to perform Hajj[] therein by assuming Ihrâm), then he should not have sexual
relations (with his wife), nor commit sin, nor dispute unjustly during the Hajj. And whatever good you
do, (be sure) Allâh knows it. And take a provision (with you) for the journey, but the best provision is
At-Taqwa (piety, righteousness, etc.). So fear Me, O men of understanding!
198.
There is no sin on you if you seek the Bounty of your Lord (during pilgrimage by trading, etc.). Then
when you leave 'Arafât[], remember Allâh (by glorifying His Praises, i.e. prayers and invocations,
etc.) at the Mash'ar-il-Harâm.[] And remember Him (by invoking Allâh for all good, etc.) as He has
guided you, and verily, you were, before, of those who were astray.
199.
Then depart from the place whence all the people depart and ask Allâh for His Forgiveness. Truly,
Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most-Merciful.
200.
So when you have accomplished your Manasik [(i.e. Ihrâm, Tawâf of the Ka'bah and As-Safâ and
Al-Marwah), stay at 'Arafât, Muzdalifah and Mina, Ramy of Jamarât, (stoning of the specified pillars
in Mina) slaughtering of Hady (animal, etc.)]. Remember Allâh as you remember your forefathers or
with a far more remembrance. But of mankind there are some who say: "Our Lord! Give us (Your
Bounties) in this world!" and for such there will be no portion in the Hereafter.
201.
And of them there are some who say: "Our Lord! Give us in this world that which is good and in the
Hereafter that which is good, and save us from the torment of the Fire!"
202.
For them there will be alloted a share for what they have earned. And Allâh is Swift at reckoning.
203.
And remember Allâh during the appointed Days.[] But whosoever hastens to leave in two days,
there is no sin on him and whosoever stays on, there is no sin on him, if his aim is to do good and
obey Allâh (fear Him), and know that you will surely be gathered unto Him.
204.
And of mankind there is he whose speech may please you (O Muhammad SAW), in this worldly life,
and he calls Allâh to witness as to that which is in his heart, yet he is the most quarrelsome of the
opponents.[]
205.
And when he turns away (from you "O Muhammad SAW "), his effort in the land is to make mischief
therein and to destroy the crops and the cattle, and Allâh likes not mischief.
206.
And when it is said to him, "Fear Allâh", he is led by arrogance to (more) crime. So enough for him
is Hell, and worst indeed is that place to rest!
207.
And of mankind is he who would sell himself, seeking the Pleasure of Allâh. And Allâh is full of
Kindness to (His) slaves.
208.
O you who believe! Enter perfectly in Islâm (by obeying all the rules and regulations of the Islâmic
religion) and follow not the footsteps of Shaitân (Satan). Verily! He is to you a plain enemy.
209.
Then if you slide back after the clear signs (Prophet Muhammad SAW and this Qur'ân, and Islâm)
have come to you, then know that Allâh is All-Mighty, All-Wise.
210.
Do they then wait for anything other than that Allâh should come to them in the shadows of the
clouds and the angels? (Then) the case would be already judged. And to Allâh return all matters (for
decision).
211.
Ask the Children of Israel how many clear Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs,
revelations, etc.) We gave them. And whoever changes Allâh's Favour after it had come to him,
[e.g. renounces the Religion of Allâh (Islâm) and accepts Kufr (disbelief),] then surely, Allâh is
Severe in punishment.
212.
Beautified is the life of this world for those who disbelieve, and they mock at those who believe. But
those who obey Allâh's Orders and keep away from what He has forbidden, will be above them on
the Day of Resurrection. And Allâh gives (of His Bounty, Blessings, Favours, Honours, etc. on the
Day of Resurrection) to whom He wills without limit.
213.
Mankind were one community and Allâh sent Prophets with glad tidings and warnings, and with
them He sent the Scripture in truth to judge between people in matters wherein they differed. And
only those to whom (the Scripture) was given differed concerning it after clear proofs had come unto
them through hatred, one to another. Then Allâh by His Leave guided those who believed to the
truth of that wherein they differed. And Allâh guides whom He wills to a Straight Path.
214.
Or think you that you will enter Paradise without such (trials) as came to those who passed away
before you? They were afflicted with severe poverty and ailments and were so shaken that even the
Messenger and those who believed along with him said, "When (will come) the Help of Allâh?" Yes!
Certainly, the Help of Allâh is near!
215.
They ask you (O Muhammad SAW) what they should spend. Say: Whatever you spend of good must
be for parents and kindred and orphans and AlMasâkin (the poor) and the wayfarers, and whatever
you do of good deeds, truly, Allâh knows it well.
216.
Jihâd[] (holy fighting in Allâh's Cause) is ordained for you (Muslims) though you dislike it, and it may
be that you dislike a thing which is good for you and that you like a thing which is bad for you. Allâh
knows but you do not know.
217.
They ask you concerning fighting in the Sacred Months (i.e. 1st, 7th, 11th and 12th months of the
Islâmic calendar). Say, "Fighting therein is a great (transgression)[] but a greater (transgression)
with Allâh is to prevent mankind from following the Way of Allâh, to disbelieve in Him, to prevent
access to Al-Masjid-al-Harâm (at Makkah), and to drive out its inhabitants, and Al-Fitnah[] is worse
than killing. And they will never cease fighting you until they turn you back from your religion (Islâmic
Monotheism) if they can. And whosoever of you turns back from his religion and dies as a
disbeliever, then his deeds will be lost in this life and in the Hereafter, and they will be the dwellers
of the Fire. They will abide therein forever."
146.
Those to whom We gave the Scripture (Jews and Christians) recognise him (Muhammad SAW or the
Ka'bah at Makkah) as they recongise their sons. But verily, a party of them conceal the truth while
they know it - [i.e. the qualities of Muhammad SAW which are written in the Taurât (Torah) and the
Injeel (Gospel)][].
147.
(This is) the truth from your Lord. So be you not one of those who doubt.
148.
For every nation there is a direction to which they face (in their prayers). So hasten towards all that
is good. Wheresoever you may be, Allâh will bring you together (on the Day of Resurrection). Truly,
Allâh is Able to do all things.
149.
And from wheresoever you start forth (for prayers), turn your face in the direction of Al-Masjid-al-
Harâm (at Makkah), that is indeed the truth from your Lord. And Allâh is not unaware of what you
do.
150.
And from wheresoever you start forth (for prayers), turn your face in the direction of Al-Masjid-al-
Harâm (at Makkah), and wheresoever you are, turn your faces towards, it (when you pray) so that
men may have no argument against you except those of them that are wrong-doers, so fear them
not, but fear Me! - And so that I may complete My Blessings on you and that you may be guided.
151.
Similarly (to complete My Blessings on you) We have sent among you a Messenger (Muhammad
SAW) of your own, reciting to you Our Verses (the Qur'ân) and sanctifying you, and teaching you the
Book (the Qur'ân) and the Hikmah (i.e. Sunnah, Islâmic laws and Fiqh - jurisprudence), and
teaching you that which you used not to know.
152.
Therefore remember Me (by praying, glorifying, etc.).[] I will remember you, and be grateful to Me
(for My countless Favours on you) and never be ungrateful to Me.
153.
O you who believe! Seek help in patience and As-Salât (the prayer). Truly! Allâh is with As-Sâbirin
(the patient ones, etc.).
154.
And say not of those who are killed in the Way of Allâh, "They are dead." Nay, they are living, but
you perceive (it) not.
155.
And certainly, We shall test you with something of fear, hunger, loss of wealth, lives and fruits, but
give glad tidings to As-Sâbirin (the patient ones, etc.).
156.
Who, when afflicted with calamity, say: "Truly! To Allâh we belong and truly, to Him we shall return."
157.
They are those on whom are the Salawât (i.e. blessings, etc.) (i.e. who are blessed and will be
forgiven) from their Lord, and (they are those who) receive His Mercy, and it is they who are the
guided-ones.
158.
Verily! As-Safâ and Al-Marwah (two mountains in Makkah) are of the Symbols of Allâh. So it is not a
sin on him who perform Hajj or 'Umrah (pilgrimage) of the House (the Ka'bah at Makkah) to perform
the going (Tawâf) between them (As-Safâ and Al-Marwah).[] And whoever does good voluntarily,
then verily, Allâh is All-Recogniser, All-Knower.
159.
Verily, those who conceal the clear proofs, evidences and the guidance, which We have sent down,
after We have made it clear for the people in the Book, they are the ones cursed by Allâh and
cursed by the cursers.
160.
Except those who repent and do righteous deeds, and openly declare (the truth which they
concealed). These, I will accept their repentance. And I am the One Who accepts repentance, the
Most Merciful.
161.
Verily, those who disbelieve, and die while they are disbelievers, it is they on whom is the Curse of
Allâh and of the angels and of mankind, combined.
162.
They will abide therein (under the curse in Hell), their punishment will neither be lightened, nor will
they be reprieved.
163.
And your Ilâh (God) is One Ilâh (God - Allâh), Lâ ilâha illa Huwa (there is none who has the right to
be worshipped but He), the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.
164.
Verily! In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the alternation of night and day, and the
ships which sail through the sea with that which is of use to mankind, and the water (rain) which
Allâh sends down from the sky and makes the earth alive therewith after its death, and the moving
(living) creatures of all kinds that He has scattered therein, and in the veering of winds and clouds
which are held between the sky and the earth, are indeed Ayât (proofs, evidences, signs, etc.) for
people of understanding.
165.
And of mankind are some who take (for worship) others besides Allâh as rivals[] (to Allâh). They
love them as they love Allâh. But those who believe, love Allâh more (than anything else). If only,
those who do wrong could see, when they will see the torment, that all power belongs to Allâh and
that Allâh is Severe in punishment.
166.
When those who were followed, disown (declare themselves innocent of) those who followed
(them), and they see the torment, then all their relations will be cut off from them.
167.
And those who followed will say: "If only we had one more chance to return (to the worldly life), we
would disown (declare ourselves as innocent from) them as they have disowned (declared
themselves as innocent from) us." Thus Allâh will show them their deeds as regrets for them. And
they will never get out of the Fire .
168.
O mankind! Eat of that which is lawful and good on the earth, and follow not the footsteps of Shaitân
(Satan). Verily, he is to you an open enemy.
169.
[Shaitân (Satan)] commands you only what is evil and Fahshâ (sinful), and that you should say
against Allâh what you know not.
170.
When it is said to them: "Follow what Allâh has sent down." They say: "Nay! We shall follow what we
found our fathers following." (Would they do that!) Even though their fathers did not understand
anything nor were they guided?
171.
And the example of those who disbelieve, is as that of him who shouts to the (flock of sheep) that
hears nothing but calls and cries. (They are) deaf, dumb and blind. So they do not understand.
172.
O you who believe (in the Oneness of Allâh - Islâmic Monotheism)! Eat of the lawful things that We
have provided you[] with, and be grateful to Allâh, if it is indeed He Whom you worship.
173.
He has forbidden you only the Maytatah (dead animals), and blood, and the flesh of swine, and that
which is slaughtered as a scrifice for others than Allâh (or has been slaughtered for idols, etc., on
which Allâh's Name has not been mentioned while slaughtering). But if one is forced by necessity
without wilful disobedience nor transgressing due limits, then there is no sin on him. Truly, Allâh is
Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
174.
Verily, those who conceal what Allâh has sent down of the Book, and purchase a small gain
therewith (of worldly things), they eat into their bellies nothing but fire. Allâh will not speak to them
on the Day of Resurrection, nor purify them, and theirs will be a painful torment.
175.
Those are they who have purchased error at the price of Guidance, and torment at the price of
Forgiveness. So how bold they are (for evil deeds which will push them) to the Fire.
176.
That is because Allâh has sent down the Book (the Qur'ân) in truth. And verily, those who disputed
as regards the Book are far away in opposition.
177.
It is not Al-Birr (piety, righteousness, and each and every act of obedience to Allâh, etc.) that you
turn your faces towards east and (or) west (in prayers); but Al-Birr is (the quality of) the one who
believes in Allâh, the Last Day, the Angels, the Book, the Prophets[] and gives his wealth, in spite of
love for it, to the kinsfolk, to the orphans, and to Al-Masâkin (the poor), and to the wayfarer, and to
those who ask, and to set slaves free, performs As-Salât (Iqâmat-as-Salât), and gives the Zakât,
and who fulfill their covenant when they make it, and who are As-Sâbirin (the patient ones, etc.) in
extreme poverty and ailment (disease) and at the time of fighting (during the battles). Such are the
people of the truth and they are AlMuttaqûn (pious - see V.2:2).
178.
O you who believe! Al-Qisâs (the Law of Equality in punishment) is prescribed for you in case of
murder: the free for the free, the slave for the slave, and the female for the female. But if the killer is
forgiven by the brother (or the relatives, etc.) of the killed against blood money, then adhering to it
with fairness and payment of the blood money, to the heir should be made in fairness. This is an
alleviation and a mercy from your Lord. So after this whoever transgresses the limits (i.e. kills the
killer after taking the blood money), he shall have a painful torment.
179.
And there is (a saving of) life for you in Al-Qisâs (the Law of Equality in punishment), O men of
understanding, that you may become Al-Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2).
180.
It is prescribed for you, when death approaches any of you, if he leaves wealth, that he make a
bequest to parents and next of kin, according to reasonable manners. (This is) a duty upon Al-
Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2).
181.
Then whoever changes the bequest after hearing it, the sin shall be on those who make the change.
Truly, Allâh is All-Hearer, All-Knower.
182.
But he who fears from a testator some unjust act or wrong-doing, and thereupon he makes peace
between the parties concerned, there shall be no sin on him. Certainly, Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most
Merciful.
183.
O you who believe! Observing As-Saum (the fasting)[] is prescribed for you as it was prescribed for
those before you, that you may become Al-Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2).
184.
[Observing Saum (fasts)] for a fixed number of days, but if any of you is ill or on a journey, the same
number (should be made up) from other days. And as for those who can fast with difficulty, (e.g. an
old man, etc.), they have (a choice either to fast or) to feed a Miskîn (poor person) (for every day).
But whoever does good of his own accord, it is better for him. And that you fast, it is better for you if
only you know.[]
185.
The month of Ramadân in which was revealed the Qur'ân, a guidance for mankind and clear proofs
for the guidance and the criterion (between right and wrong). So whoever of you sights (the crescent
on the first night of) the month (of Ramadân i.e. is present at his home), he must observe Saum
(fasts) that month, and whoever is ill or on a journey, the same number [of days which one did not
observe Saum (fasts) must be made up] from other days. Allâh intends for you ease, and He does
not want to make things difficult for you. (He wants that you) must complete the same number (of
days), and that you must magnify Allâh [i.e. to say Takbîr (Allâhu-Akbar; Allâh is the Most Great) on
seeing the crescent of the months of Ramadân and Shawwâl] for having guided you so that you
may be grateful to Him.[]
186.
And when My slaves ask you (O Muhammad SAW) concerning Me, then (answer them), I am indeed
near (to them by My Knowledge). I respond to the invocations of the supplicant when he calls on Me
(without any mediator or intercessor). So let them obey Me and believe in Me, so that they may be
led aright.[]
187.
It is made lawful for you to have sexual relations with your wives on the night of As-Saum (the fasts).
They are Lîbas [i.e. body cover, or screen, or Sakan, (i.e. you enjoy the pleasure of living with her -
as in Verse 7:189) Tafsir At-Tabarî], for you and you are the same for them. Allâh knows that you
used to deceive yourselves, so He turned to you (accepted your repentance) and forgave you. So
now have sexual relations with them and seek that which Allâh has ordained for you (offspring), and
eat and drink until the white thread (light) of dawn appears to you distinct from the black thread
(darkness of night), then complete your Saum (fast) till the nightfall. And do not have sexual
relations with them (your wives) while you are in I'tikâf (i.e. confining oneself in a mosque for prayers
and invocations leaving the worldly activities) in the mosques. These are the limits (set) by Allâh, so
approach them not. Thus does Allâh make clear His Ayât (proofs, evidences, lessons, signs,
revelations, verses, laws, legal and illegal things, Allâh's set limits, orders, etc.) to mankind that they
may become Al-Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2).
188.
And eat up not one another's property unjustly (in any illegal way e.g. stealing, robbing, deceiving,
etc.), nor give bribery to the rulers (judges before presenting your cases) that you may knowingly eat
up a part of the property of others sinfully.
189.
They ask you (O Muhammad SAW) about the new moons. Say: These are signs to mark fixed
periods of time for mankind and for the pilgrimage. It is not Al-Birr (piety, righteousness, etc.) that
you enter the houses from the back but Al-Birr (is the quality of the one) who fears Allâh. So enter
houses through their proper doors, and fear Allâh that you may be successful.
190.
And fight in the Way of Allâh[] those who fight you, but transgress not the limits. Truly, Allâh likes not
the transgressors. [This Verse is the first one that was revealed in connection with Jihâd, but it was
supplemented by another (V.9:36)].
191.
And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. And
Al-Fitnah[] is worse than killing. And fight not with them at Al-Masjid-al-Harâm (the sanctuary at
Makkah),[] unless they (first) fight you there. But if they attack you, then kill them. Such is the
recompense of the disbelievers.
192.
But if they cease, then Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
193.
And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and worshipping of others along with Allâh)
and (all and every kind of) worship is for Allâh (Alone).[] But if they cease, let there be no
transgression except against Az-Zâlimûn (the polytheists, and wrong-doers, etc.)
194.
The sacred month is for the sacred month, and for the prohibited things, there is the Law of Equality
(Qisâs). Then whoever transgresses the prohibition against you, you transgress likewise against
him. And fear Allâh, and know that Allâh is with Al-Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2) .
195.
And spend in the Cause of Allâh (i.e. Jihâd of all kinds, etc.) and do not throw yourselves into
destruction (by not spending your wealth in the Cause of Allâh), and do good. Truly, Allâh

[wahhab]

218.
Verily, those who have believed, and those who have emigrated (for Allâh's Religion) and have
striven hard in the Way of Allâh, all these hope for Allâh's Mercy. And Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most-
Merciful.
219.
They ask you (O Muhammad SAW) concerning alcoholic drink and gambling.[] Say: "In them is a
great sin, and (some) benefit for men, but the sin of them is greater than their benefit." And they ask
you what they ought to spend. Say: "That which is beyond your needs." Thus Allâh makes clear to
you His Laws in order that you may give thought."[]
220.
In (to) this worldly life and in the Hereafter. And they ask you concerning orphans. Say: "The best
thing is to work honestly in their property, and if you mix your affairs with theirs, then they are your
brothers. And Allâh knows him who means mischief (e.g. to swallow their property) from him who
means good (e.g. to save their property). And if Allâh had wished, He could have put you into
difficulties. Truly, Allâh is All-Mighty, All-Wise."
221.
And do not marry Al-Mushrikât (idolatresses, etc.) till they believe (worship Allâh Alone). And indeed
a slave woman who believes is better than a (free) Mushrikah (idolatress, etc.), even though she
pleases you. And give not (your daughters) in marriage to Al-Mushrikûn[] till they believe (in Allâh
Alone) and verily, a believing slave is better than a (free) Mushrik (idolater, etc.), even though he
pleases you. Those (Al-Mushrikûn) invite you to the Fire, but Allâh invites (you) to Paradise and
Forgiveness by His Leave, and makes His Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs,
revelations, etc.) clear to mankind that they may remember.
222.
They ask you concerning menstruation. Say: that is an Adha (a harmful thing for a husband to have
a sexual intercourse with his wife while she is having her menses), therefore keep away from
women during menses and go not unto them till they have purified (from menses and have taken a
bath). And when they have purified themselves, then go in unto them as Allâh has ordained for you
(go in unto them in any manner as long as it is in their vagina). Truly, Allâh loves those who turn
unto Him in repentance and loves those who purify themselves (by taking a bath and cleaning and
washing thoroughly their private parts, bodies, for their prayers, etc.).
223.
Your wives are a tilth for you, so go to your tilth (have sexual relations with your wives in any manner
as long as it is in the vagina and not in the anus), when or how you will, and send (good deeds, or
ask Allâh to bestow upon you pious offspring) before you for your ownselves. And fear Allâh, and
know that you are to meet Him (in the Hereafter), and give good tidings to the believers (O
Muhammad SAW).
224.
And make not Allâh's (Name) an excuse in your oaths against your doing good and acting piously,
and making peace among mankind. And Allâh is All-Hearer, All-Knower (i.e. do not swear much and
if you have sworn against doing something good then give an expiation for the oath and do good).[]
225.
Allâh will not call you to account for that which is unintentional in your oaths, but He will call you to
account for that which your hearts have earned. And Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most-Forbearing.
226.
Those who take an oath[] not to have sexual relation with their wives must wait four months, then if
they return (change their idea in this period), verily, Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
227.
And if they decide upon divorce, then Allâh is All-Hearer, All-Knower.
228.
And divorced women shall wait (as regards their marriage) for three menstrual periods, and it is not
lawful for them to conceal what Allâh has created in their wombs, if they believe in Allâh and the
Last Day. And their husbands have the better right to take them back in that period, if they wish for
reconciliation. And they (women) have rights (over their husbands as regards living expenses, etc.)
similar (to those of their husbands) over them (as regards obedience and respect, etc.) to what is
reasonable, but men have a degree (of responsibility) over them. And Allâh is All-Mighty, All-Wise.
229.
The divorce is twice, after that, either you retain her on reasonable terms or release her with
kindness. And it is not lawful for you (men) to take back (from your wives) any of your Mahr (bridal
money given by the husband to his wife at the time of marriage) which you have given them, except
when both parties fear that they would be unable to keep the limits ordained by Allâh (e.g. to deal
with each other on a fair basis). Then if you fear that they would not be able to keep the limits
ordained by Allâh, then there is no sin on either of them if she gives back (the Mahr or a part of it)
for her Al-Khul' (divorce)[]. These are the limits ordained by Allâh, so do not transgress them. And
whoever transgresses the limits ordained by Allâh, then such are the Zâlimûn (wrong-doers, etc.).
230.
And if he has divorced her (the third time), then she is not lawful unto him thereafter until she has
married another husband. Then, if the other husband divorces her, it is no sin on both of them that
they reunite, provided they feel that they can keep the limits ordained by Allâh. These are the limits
of Allâh, which He makes plain for the people who have knowledge.
231.
And when you have divorced women and they have fulfilled the term of their prescribed period,
either take them back on reasonable basis or set them free on reasonable basis. But do not take
them back to hurt them, and whoever does that, then he has wronged himself. And treat not the
Verses (Laws) of Allâh as a jest, but remember Allâh's Favours on you (i.e. Islâm), and that which
He has sent down to you of the Book (i.e. the Qur'ân) and Al-Hikmah (the Prophet's Sunnah - legal
ways - Islâmic jurisprudence, etc.) whereby He instructs you. And fear Allâh, and know that Allâh is
All-Aware of everything.
232.
And when you have divorced women and they have fulfilled the term of their prescribed period, do
not prevent them from marrying their (former) husbands, if they mutually agree on reasonable basis.
This (instruction) is an admonition for him among you who believes in Allâh and the Last Day. That
is more virtuous and purer for you. Allâh knows and you know not.
233.
The mothers shall give suck to their children for two whole years, (that is) for those (parents) who
desire to complete the term of suckling, but the father of the child shall bear the cost of the mother's
food and clothing on a reasonable basis. No person shall have a burden laid on him greater than he
can bear. No mother shall be treated unfairly on account of her child, nor father on account of his
child. And on the (father's) heir is incumbent the like of that (which was incumbent on the father). If
they both decide on weaning, by mutual consent, and after due consultation, there is no sin on
them. And if you decide on a foster suckling-mother for your children, there is no sin on you,
provided you pay (the mother) what you agreed (to give her) on reasonable basis. And fear Allâh
and know that Allâh is All-Seer of what you do.
234.
And those of you who die and leave wives behind them, they (the wives) shall wait (as regards their
marriage) for four months and ten days, then when they have fulfilled their term, there is no sin on
you if they (the wives) dispose of themselves in a just and honourable manner (i.e. they can marry).
And Allâh is Well-Acquainted with what you do.
235.
And there is no sin on you if you make a hint of betrothal or conceal it in yourself, Allâh knows that
you will remember them, but do not make a promise of contract with them in secret except that you
speak an honourable saying according to the Islâmic law (e.g. you can say to her, "If one finds a
wife like you, he will be happy"). And do not consummate the marriage until the term prescribed is
fulfilled. And know that Allâh knows what is in your minds, so fear Him. And know that Allâh is Oft-
Forgiving, Most Forbearing.
236.
There is no sin on you, if you divorce women while yet you have not touched (had sexual relation
with) them, nor appointed unto them their Mahr (bridal money given by the husband to his wife at
the time of marriage). But bestow on them ( a suitable gif>t), the rich according to his means, and
the poor according to his means, a gif>t of reasonable amount is a duty on the doers of good.
237.
And if you divorce them before you have touched (had a sexual relation with) them, and you have
appointed unto them the Mahr (bridal money given by the husbands to his wife at the time of
marriage), then pay half of that (Mahr), unless they (the women) agree to forego it, or he (the
husband), in whose hands is the marriage tie, agrees to forego and give her full appointed Mahr.
And to forego and give (her the full Mahr) is nearer to At-Taqwa (piety, right-eousness, etc.). And do
not forget liberality between yourselves. Truly, Allâh is All-Seer of what you do.
238.
Guard strictly (five obligatory) AsSalawât (the prayers) especially the middle Salât (i.e. the best
prayer 'Asr).[] And stand before Allâh with obedience [and do not speak to others during the Salât
(prayers)].
239.
And if you fear (an enemy), perfrom Salât (pray) on foot or riding[]. And when you are in safety, offer
the Salât (prayer) in the manner He has taught you, which you knew not (before).
240.
And those of you who die and leave behind wives should bequeath for their wives a year's
maintenance and residence without turning them out, but if they (wives) leave, there is no sin on you
for that which they do of themselves, provided it is honourable (e.g. lawful marriage). And Allâh is
All-Mighty, All-Wise. [The order of this Verse has been cancelled (abrogated) by Verse 4:12].
241.
And for divorced women, maintenance (should be provided) on reasonable (scale). This is a duty on
Al-Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2).
242.
Thus Allâh makes clear His Ayât (Laws) to you, in order that you may understand.
243.
Did you (O Muhammad SAW) not think of those who went forth from their homes in thousands,
fearing death? Allâh said to them, "Die". And then He restored them to life. Truly, Allâh is full of
Bounty to mankind, but most men thank not.
244.
And fight in the Way of Allâh and know that Allâh is All-Hearer, All-Knower.
245.
Who is he that will lend to Allâh a goodly loan so that He may multiply it to him many times? And it is
Allâh that decreases or increases (your provisions), and unto Him you shall return.
246.
Have you not thought about the group of the Children of Israel after (the time of) Musâ (Moses)?
When they said to a Prophet of theirs, "Appoint for us a king and we will fight in Allâh's Way." He
said, "Would you then refrain from fighting, if fighting was prescribed for you?" They said, "Why
should we not fight in Allâh's Way while we have been driven out of our homes and our children
(families have been taken as captives)?" But when fighting was ordered for them, they turned away,
all except a few of them. And Allâh is All-Aware of the Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong-doers).
247.
And their Prophet (Samuel >>) said to them, "Indeed Allâh has appointed Talût (Saul) as a king over
you." They said, "How can he be a king over us when we are better fitted than him for the kingdom,
and he has not been given enough wealth." He said: "Verily, Allâh has chosen him above you and
has increased him abundantly in knowledge and stature. And Allâh grants His Kingdom to whom He
wills. And Allâh is All-Sufficient for His creatures' needs, All-Knower."
248.
And their Prophet (Samuel >>) said to them: Verily! The sign of His Kingdom is that there shall
come to you At-Tâbût (a wooden box), wherein is Sakinah[] (peace and reassurance) from your
Lord and a remnant of that which Musâ (Moses) and Hârûn (Aaron) left behind, carried by the
angels. Verily, in this is a sign for you if you are indeed believers.
249.
Then when Talût (Saul) set out with the army, he said: "Verily! Allâh will try you by a river. So
whoever drinks thereof, he is not of me, and whoever tastes it not, he is of me, except him who
takes (thereof) in the hollow of his hand." Yet, they drank thereof, all, except a few of them. So when
he had crossed it (the river), he and those who believed with him, they said: "We have no power this
day against Jalût (Goliath) and his hosts." But those who knew with certainty that they were to meet
their Lord, said: "How often a small group overcame a mighty host by Allâh's Leave?" And Allâh is
with As-Sâbirin (the patient ones, etc.).
250.
And when they advanced to meet Jalût (Goliath) and his forces, they invoked: "Our Lord! Pour forth
on us patience and make us victorious over the disbelieving people."
251.
So they routed them by Allâh's Leave and Dawûd (David) killed Jalût (Goliath), and Allâh gave him
[Dawûd (David)] the kingdom [after the death of Talût (Saul) and Samuel] and AlHikmah
(Prophethood)[], and taught him of that which He willed. And if Allâh did not check one set of people
by means of another, the earth would indeed be full of mischief. But Allâh is full of Bounty to the
'Alamîn (mankind, jinns and all that exists).
252.
These are the Verses of Allâh, We recite them to you (O Muhammad SAW) in truth, and surely, you
are one of the Messengers (of Allâh)[].
253.
Those Messengers! We preferred some to others; to some of them Allâh spoke (directly); others He
raised to degrees (of honour); and to 'Iesa (Jesus), the son of Maryam (Mary), We gave clear proofs
and evidences, and supported him with Rûh-ul-Qudus [Jibrael (Gabriel)]. If Allâh had willed,
succeeding generations would not have fought against each other, after clear Verses of Allâh had
come to them, but they differed - some of them believed and others disbelieved. If Allâh had willed,
they would not have fought against one another, but Allâh does what He likes.
254.
O you who believe! Spend of that with which We have provided for you, before a Day comes when
there will be no bargaining, nor friendship, nor intercession. And it is the disbelievers who are the
Zâlimûn (wrong-doers, etc.).
255.
Allâh! Lâ ilâha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), the Ever Living, the One Who
sustains and protects all that exists. Neither slumber, nor sleep overtake Him. To Him belongs
whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on earth. Who is he that can intercede with Him except
with His Permission? He knows what happens to them (His creatures) in this world, and what will
happen to them in the Hereafter . And they will never compass anything of His Knowledge except
that which He wills. His Kursî[] extends over the heavens and the earth, and He feels no fatigue in
guarding and preserving them. And He is the Most High, the Most Great. [This Verse 2:255 is called
Ayat-ul-Kursî.]
256.
There is no compulsion in religion. Verily, the Right Path has become distinct from the wrong path.
Whoever disbelieves in Tâghût[] and believes in Allâh, then he has grasped the most trustworthy
handhold that will never break. And Allâh is All-Hearer, All-Knower.
257.
Allâh is the Walî (Protector or Guardian) of those who believe. He brings them out from darkness
into light. But as for those who disbelieve, their Auliyâ (supporters and helpers) are Tâghût [false
deities and false leaders, etc.], they bring them out from light into darkness. Those are the dwellers
of the Fire, and they will abide therein forever.
258.
Have you not looked at him who disputed with Ibrâhim (Abraham) about his Lord (Allâh), because
Allâh had given him the kingdom? When Ibrâhim (Abraham) said (to him): "My Lord (Allâh) is He
Who gives life and causes death." He said, "I give life and cause death." Ibrâhim (Abraham) said,
"Verily! Allâh causes the sun to rise from the east; then cause it you to rise from the west." So the
disbeliever was utterly defeated. And Allâh guides not the people, who are Zâlimûn (wrong-doers,
etc.).
259.
Or like the one who passed by a town and it had tumbled over its roofs. He said: "Oh! How will Allâh
ever bring it to life after its death?" So Allâh caused him to die for a hundred years, then raised him
up (again). He said: "How long did you remain (dead)?" He (the man) said: "(Perhaps) I remained
(dead) a day or part of a day". He said: "Nay, you have remained (dead) for a hundred years, look at
your food and your drink, they show no change; and look at your donkey! And thus We have made
of you a sign for the people. Look at the bones, how We bring them together and clothe them with
flesh". When this was clearly shown to him, he said, "I know (now) that Allâh is Able to do all things."
260.
And (remember) when Ibrâhim (Abraham) said, "My Lord! Show me how You give life to the dead."
He (Allâh) said: "Do you not believe?" He [Ibrâhim (Abraham)] said: "Yes (I believe), but to be
stronger in Faith." He said: "Take four birds, then cause them to incline towards you (then slaughter
them, cut them into pieces), and then put a portion of them on every hill, and call them, they will
come to you in haste. And know that Allâh is All-Mighty, All-Wise."
261.
The likeness of those who spend their wealth in the Way of Allâh, is as the likeness of a grain (of
corn); it grows seven ears, and each ear has a hundred grains. Allâh gives manifold increase to
whom He pleases. And Allâh is All-Sufficient for His creatures' needs, All-Knower.
262.
Those who spend their wealth in the Cause of Allâh, and do not follow up their gif>ts with reminders
of their generosity or with injury, their reward is with their Lord. On them shall be no fear, nor shall
they grieve.
263.
Kind words and forgiving of faults are better than Sadaqah (charity) followed by injury. And Allâh is
Rich (Free of all wants) and He is Most-Forbearing.
264.
O you who believe! Do not render in vain your Sadaqah (charity) by reminders of your generosity or
by injury, like him who spends his wealth to be seen of men, and he does not believe in Allâh, nor in
the Last Day. His likeness is the likeness of a smooth rock on which is a little dust; on it falls heavy
rain which leaves it bare. They are not able to do anything with what they have earned. And Allâh
does not guide the disbelieving people.
265.
And the likeness of those who spend their wealth seeking Allâh's Pleasure while they in their
ownselves are sure and certain that Allâh will reward them (for their spending in His Cause), is the
likeness of a garden on a height; heavy rain falls on it and it doubles its yield of harvest. And if it
does not receive heavy rain, light rain suffices it. And Allâh is All-Seer of (knows well) what you do.
266.
Would any of you wish to have a garden with date-palms and vines, with rivers flowing underneath,
and all kinds of fruits for him therein, while he is striken with old age, and his children are weak (not
able to look after themselves), then it is struck with a fiery whirlwind, so that it is burnt? Thus does
Allâh make clear His Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses) to you that you may give thought[].
267.
O you who believe! Spend of the good things which you have (legally) earned, and of that which We
have produced from the earth for you, and do not aim at that which is bad to spend from it, (though)
you would not accept it save if you close your eyes and tolerate therein. And know that Allâh is Rich
(Free of all wants), and Worthy of all praise.

[wahhab]

268.
Shaitân (Satan) threatens you with poverty and orders you to commit Fahshâ (evil deeds, illegal
sexual intercourse, sins etc.); whereas Allâh promises you Forgiveness from Himself and Bounty,
and Allâh is All-Sufficient for His creatures' needs, All-Knower.
269.
He grants Hikmah[] to whom He pleases, and he, to whom Hikmah is granted, is indeed granted
abundant good. But none remember (will receive admonition) except men of understanding.
270.
And whatever you spend for spendings (e.g., in Sadaqah - charity, etc. for Allâh's Cause) or
whatever vow you make, be sure Allâh knows it all. And for the Zâlimûn (wrong-doers, etc.) there
are no helpers.
271.
If you disclose your Sadaqât (alms-giving), it is well, but if you conceal it, and give it to the poor, that
is better for you. (Allâh) will forgive you some of your sins. And Allâh is Well-Acquainted with what
you do.
272.
Not upon you (Muhammad SAW) is their guidance, but Allâh guides whom He wills. And whatever
you spend in good, it is for yourselves, when you spend not except seeking Allâh's Countenance.
And whatever you spend in good, it will be repaid to you in full, and you shall not be wronged.
273.
(Charity is) for Fuqarâ (the poor), who in Allâh's Cause are restricted (from travel), and cannot move
about in the land (for trade or work). The one who knows them not, thinks that they are rich because
of their modesty. You may know them by their mark, they do not beg of people at all.[] And whatever
you spend in good, surely Allâh knows it well.
274.
Those who spend their wealth (in Allâh's Cause) by night and day, in secret and in public, they shall
have their reward with their Lord. On them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.[]
275.
Those who eat Ribâ[] (usury) will not stand (on the Day of Resurrection) except like the standing of
a person beaten by Shaitân (Satan) leading him to insanity. That is because they say: "Trading is
only like Ribâ (usury)," whereas Allâh has permitted trading and forbidden Ribâ (usury). So
whosoever receives an admonition from his Lord and stops eating Ribâ (usury) shall not be
punished for the past; his case is for Allâh (to judge); but whoever returns [to Ribâ (usury)], such are
the dwellers of the Fire - they will abide therein.
276.
Allâh will destroy Ribâ (usury) and will give increase for Sadaqât (deeds of charity, alms, etc.) And
Allâh likes not the disbelievers, sinners.
277.
Truly those who believe, and do deeds of righteousness, and perform As-Salât (Iqâmat-as-Salât),
and give Zakât, they will have their reward with their Lord. On them shall be no fear, nor shall they
grieve.
278.
O you who believe! Be afraid of Allâh and give up what remains (due to you) from Ribâ (usury) (from
now onward), if you are (really) believers[].
279.
And if you do not do it, then take a notice of war from Allâh and His Messenger[] but if you repent,
you shall have your capital sums. Deal not unjustly (by asking more than your capital sums), and
you shall not be dealt with unjustly (by receiving less than your capital sums).
280.
And if the debtor is in a hard time (has no money), then grant him time till it is easy for him to repay,
but if you remit it by way of charity, that is better for you if you did but know.[]
281.
And be afraid of the Day when you shall be brought back to Allâh. Then every person shall be paid
what he earned, and they shall not be dealt with unjustly.
282.
O you who believe! When you contract a debt for a fixed period, write it down. Let a scribe write it
down in justice between you. Let not the scribe refuse to write as Allâh has taught him, so let him
write. Let him (the debtor) who incurs the liability dictate, and he must fear Allâh, his Lord, and
diminish not anything of what he owes. But if the debtor is of poor understanding, or weak, or is
unable himself to dictate, then let his guardian dictate in justice. And get two witnesses out of your
own men. And if there are not two men (available), then a man and two women, such as you agree
for witnesses, so that if one of them (two women) errs, the other can remind her. And the witnesses
should not refuse when they are called on (for evidence). You should not become weary to write it
(your contract), whether it be small or big, for its fixed term, that is more just with Allâh; more solid
as evidence, and more convenient to prevent doubts among yourselves, save when it is a present
trade which you carry out on the spot among yourselves, then there is no sin on you if you do not
write it down. But take witnesses whenever you make a commercial contract. Let neither scribe nor
witness suffer any harm, but if you do (such harm), it would be wickedness in you. So be afraid of
Allâh; and Allâh teaches you. And Allâh is the All-Knower of each and everything.
283.
And if you are on a journey and cannot find a scribe, then let there be a pledge taken (mortgaging)[];
then if one of you entrust the other, let the one who is entrusted discharge his trust (faithfully), and
let him be afraid of Allâh, his Lord. And conceal not the evidence for he, who hides it, surely his
heart is sinful. And Allâh is All-Knower of what you do.
284.
To Allâh belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on the earth, and whether you disclose
what is in your ownselves or conceal it, Allâh will call you to account for it. Then He forgives whom
He wills and punishes whom He wills. And Allâh is Able to do all things.
285.
. The Messenger (Muhammad SAW) believes in what has been sent down to him from his Lord, and
(so do) the believers. Each one believes in Allâh, His Angels, His Books, and His Messengers. They
say, "We make no distinction between one another of His Messengers" - and they say, "We hear,
and we obey. (We seek) Your Forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the return (of all)."
286.
Allâh burdens not a person beyond his scope. He gets reward for that (good) which he has earned,
and he is punished for that (evil) which he has earned. "Our Lord! Punish us not if we forget or fall
into error, our Lord! Lay not on us a burden like that which You did lay on those before us (Jews and
Christians); our Lord! Put not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Pardon us and
grant us Forgiveness. Have mercy on us. You are our Maulâ (Patron, Suppor-ter and Protector,
etc.) and give us victory over the disbelieving people.[]"

[wahhab]

(3) سورة آل عمران

3. Âl-'Imrân
Introduction to this Surat.
In the Name of Allâh, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.
1.
Alif-Lâm-Mîm. [These letters are one of the miracles of the Qur'ân, and none but Allâh (Alone)
knows their meanings].
2.
Allâh! Lâ ilahâ illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), the Ever Living, the One Who
sustains and protects all that exists.
3.
It is He Who has sent down the Book (the Qur'ân) to you (Muhammad SAW) with truth, confirming
what came before it. And he sent down the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel).
4.
Aforetime, as a guidance to mankind, And He sent down the criterion [of judgement between right
and wrong (this Qur'ân)]. Truly, those who disbelieve in the Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses,
lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) of Allâh, for them there is a severe torment; and Allâh is All-Mighty,
All-Able of Retribution.
5.
Truly, nothing is hidden from Allâh, in the earth or in the heavens.
6.
He it is Who shapes you in the wombs as He pleases. Lâ ilâha illa Huwa (none has the right to be
worshipped but He), the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.
7.
It is He Who has sent down to you (Muhammad SAW) the Book (this Qur'ân). In it are Verses that are
entirely clear, they are the foundations of the Book [and those are the Verses of Al-Ahkâm
(commandments, etc.), Al-Farâ'id (obligatory duties) and Al-Hudud (legal laws for the punishment of
thieves, adulterers, etc.)]; and others not entirely clear. So as for those in whose hearts there is a
deviation (from the truth) they follow that which is not entirely clear thereof, seeking Al-Fitnah
(polytheism and trials, etc.), and seeking for its hidden meanings, but none knows its hidden
meanings save Allâh. And those who are firmly grounded in knowledge say: "We believe in it; the
whole of it (clear and unclear Verses) are from our Lord." And none receive admonition except men
of understanding. (Tafsir At-Tabarî).
8.
(They say): "Our Lord! Let not our hearts deviate (from the truth) after You have guided us, and
grant us mercy from You. Truly, You are the Bestower."
9.
Our Lord! Verily, it is You Who will gather mankind together on the Day about which there is no
doubt. Verily, Allâh never breaks His Promise".
10.
Verily, those who disbelieve, neither their properties nor their offspring will avail them whatsoever
against Allâh; and it is they who will be fuel of the Fire.
11.
Like the behaviour of the people of Fir'aun (Pharaoh) and those before them; they belied Our Ayât
(proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.), so Allâh seized (destroyed) them for
their sins. And Allâh is Severe in punishment.
12.
Say (O Muhammad SAW) to those who disbelieve: "You will be defeated and gathered together to
Hell, and worst indeed is that place to rest."
13.
There has already been a sign for you (O Jews) in the two armies that met (in combat i.e. the battle
of Badr): One was fighting in the Cause of Allâh, and as for the other (they) were disbelievers. They
(the believers) saw them (the disbelievers) with their own eyes twice their number (although they
were thrice their number). And Allâh supports with His Victory whom He pleases. Verily, in this is a
lesson for those who understand. (See Verse 8:44). (Tafsir At-Tabarî)
14.
Beautified for men is the love of things they covet; women, children, much of gold and silver
(wealth), branded beautiful horses, cattle and well-tilled land. This is the pleasure of the present
world's life; but Allâh has the excellent return (Paradise with flowing rivers, etc.) with Him.
15.
Say: "Shall I inform you of things far better than those? For Al-Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2) there
are Gardens (Paradise) with their Lord, underneath which rivers flow. Therein (is their) eternal
(home) and Azwâjun Mutahharatun[] (purified mates or wives) [i.e. they will have no menses, urine,
or stool, etc.], And Allâh will be pleased with them. And Allâh is All-Seer of the (His) slaves".
16.
Those who say: "Our Lord! We have indeed believed, so forgive us our sins and save us from the
punishment of the Fire."
17.
(They are) those who are patient ones, those who are true (in Faith, words, and deeds), and
obedient with sincere devotion in worship to Allâh. Those who spend [give the Zakât and alms in the
Way of Allâh] and those who pray and beg Allâh's Pardon in the last hours of the night.
18.
Allâh bears witness that Lâ ilâha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), and the
angels, and those having knowledge (also give this witness); (He is always) maintaining His creation
in Justice. Lâ ilâh illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), the All-Mighty, the All-
Wise.
19.
Truly, the religion with Allâh is Islâm. Those who were given the Scripture (Jews and Christians) did
not differ except, out of mutual jealousy, after knowledge had come to them. And whoever
disbelieves in the Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, signs, revelations, etc.) of Allâh, then surely,
Allâh is Swift in calling to account.
20.
So if they dispute with you (Muhammad SAW) say: "I have submitted myself to Allâh (in Islâm), and
(so have) those who follow me." And say to those who were given the Scripture (Jews and
Christians) and to those who are illiterates (Arab pagans): "Do you (also) submit yourselves (to Allâh
in Islâm)?" If they do, they are rightly guided; but if they turn away, your duty is only to convey the
Message; and Allâh is All-Seer of (His ) slaves[].
21.
Verily! Those who disbelieve in the Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations,
etc.) of Allâh and kill the Prophets without right, and kill those men who order just dealings, …
announce to them a painful torment.
22.
They are those whose works will be lost in this world and in the Hereafter, and they will have no
helpers.
23.
Have you not seen those who have been given a portion of the Scripture? They are being invited to
the Book of Allâh to settle their dispute, then a party of them turn away, and they are averse.
24.
This is because they say: "The Fire shall not touch us but for a number of days." And that which
they used to invent regarding their religion has deceived them.
25.
How (will it be) when We gather them together on the Day about which there is no doubt (i.e. the
Day of Resurrection). And each person will be paid in full what he has earned? And they will not be
dealt with unjustly.
26.
Say (O Muhammad SAW): "O Allâh! Possessor of the kingdom, You give the kingdom to whom You
will, and You take the kingdom from whom You will, and You endue with honour whom You will, and
You humiliate whom You will. In Your Hand[] is the good. Verily, You are Able to do all things.
27.
You make the night to enter into the day, and You make the day to enter into the night (i.e. increase
and decrease in the hours of the night and the day during winter and summer), You bring the living
out of the dead, and You bring the dead out of the living. And You give wealth and sustenance to
whom You will, without limit (measure or account).
28.
Let not the believers take the disbelievers as Auliyâ (supporters, helpers, etc.) instead of the
believers, and whoever does that will never be helped by Allâh in any way, except if you indeed fear
a danger from them. And Allâh warns you against Himself (His Punishment)[], and to Allâh is the
final return.
29.
Say (O Muhammad SAW): "Whether you hide what is in your breasts or reveal it, Allâh knows it, and
He knows what is in the heavens and what is in the earth. And Allâh is Able to do all things."
30.
On the Day when every person will be confronted with all the good he has done, and all the evil he
has done, he will wish that there were a great distance between him and his evil. And Allâh warns
you against Himself (His Punishment) and Allâh is full of Kindness to the (His) slaves.
31.
Say (O Muhammad SAW to mankind): "If you (really) love Allâh then follow me (i.e. accept Islâmic
Monotheism, follow the Qur'ân and the Sunnah), Allâh will love you and forgive you of your sins. And
Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful."
32.
Say (O Muhammad SAW): "Obey Allâh and the Messenger (Muhammad SAW)." But if they turn away,
then Allâh does not like the disbelievers[].
33.
Allâh chose Adam, Nûh (Noah), the family of Ibrâhim (Abraham) and the family of 'Imrân above the
'Alamîn (mankind and jinns) (of their times).
34.
Offspring, one of the other, and Allâh is the All-Hearer, All-Knower.
35.
(Remember) when the wife of 'Imrân said: "O my Lord! I have vowed to You what (the child that) is
in my womb to be dedicated for Your services (free from all worldly work; to serve Your Place of
worship), so accept this, from me. Verily, You are the All-Hearer, the All-Knowing."
36.
Then when she delivered her [child Maryam (Mary)], she said: "O my Lord! I have delivered a
female child," - and Allâh knew better what she delivered, - "And the male is not like the female, and
I have named her Maryam[] (Mary), and I seek refuge with You (Allâh) for her and for her offspring
from Shaitan (Satan), the outcast."
37.
So her Lord (Allâh) accepted her with goodly acceptance. He made her grow in a good manner and
put her under the care of Zakariyâ (Zachariya). Every time he entered Al-Mihrâb[] to (visit) her , he
found her supplied with sustenance. He said: "O Maryam (Mary)! From where have you got this?"
She said, "This is from Allâh." Verily, Allâh provides sustenance to whom He wills, without limit."
38.
At that time Zakariyâ (Zachariya) invoked his Lord, saying: "O my Lord! Grant me from You, a good
offspring. You are indeed the All-Hearer of invocation."
39.
Then the angels called him, while he was standing in prayer in Al-Mihrâb (a praying place or a
private room), (saying): "Allâh gives you glad tidings of Yahya (John), confirming (believing in) the
Word from Allâh [i.e. the creation of 'Iesa (Jesus) >>, the Word from Allâh ("Be!" - and he was!)],
noble, keeping away from sexual relations with women, a Prophet, from among the righteous."
40.
He said: "O my Lord! How can I have a son when I am very old, and my wife is barren?" Allâh said:
"Thus Allâh does what He wills."
41.
He said: "O my Lord! Make a sign for me." Allâh said: "Your sign is that you shall not speak to
mankind for three days except with signals. And remember your Lord much (by praising Him again
and again), and glorify (Him) in the afternoon and in the morning.[]"
42.
And (remember) when the angels said: "O Maryam (Mary)! Verily, Allâh has chosen you, purified
you (from polytheism and disbelief), and chosen you above the women of the 'Alamîn (mankind and
jinns) (of her lifetime)."
43.
O Mary! "Submit yourself with obedience to your Lord (Allâh, by worshipping none but Him Alone)
and prostrate yourself, and Irkâ'i (bow down etc.) along with Ar-Râki'ûn (those who bow down etc.)."
44.
This is a part of the news of the Ghaib (unseen, i.e. the news of the past nations of which you have
no knowledge) which We inspire you with (O Muhammad SAW). You were not with them, when they
cast lots with their pens as to which of them should be charged with the care of Maryam (Mary); nor
were you with them when they disputed.
45.
(Remember) when the angels said: "O Maryam (Mary)! Verily, Allâh gives you the glad tidings of a
Word ["Be!" - and he was! i.e. 'Iesa (Jesus) the son of Maryam (Mary)] from Him, his name will be
the Messiah 'Iesa (Jesus), the son of Maryam (Mary), held in honour in this world and in the
Hereafter, and will be one of those who are near to Allâh."
46.
"He will speak to the people in the cradle[] and in manhood, and he will be one of the righteous."
47.
She said: "O my Lord! How shall I have a son when no man has touched me." He said: "So (it will
be) for Allâh creates what He wills. When He has decreed something, He says to it only: "Be!" and it
is.
48.
And He (Allâh) will teach him ['Iesa (Jesus)] the Book and Al-Hikmah (i.e. the Sunnah, the faultless
speech of the Prophets, wisdom, etc.), (and) the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel).
49.
And will make him ['Iesa (Jesus)] a Messenger to the Children of Israel (saying): "I have come to
you with a sign from your Lord, that I design for you out of clay, as it were, the figure of a bird, and
breathe into it, and it becomes a bird by Allâh's Leave; and I heal him who was born blind, and the
leper, and I bring the dead to life by Allâh's Leave. And I inform you of what you eat, and what you
store in your houses. Surely, therein is a sign for you, if you believe.
50.
And I have come confirming that which was before me of the Taurât (Torah), and to make lawful to
you part of what was forbidden to you, and I have come to you with a proof from your Lord. So fear
Allâh and obey me.
51.
Truly! Allâh is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him (Alone). This is the Straight Path.
52.
Then when 'Iesa (Jesus) came to know of their disbelief, he said: "Who will be my helpers in Allâh's
Cause?" Al-Hawâriûn (the disciples) said: "We are the helpers of Allâh; we believe in Allâh, and
bear witness that we are Muslims (i.e. we submit to Allâh)."
53.
Our Lord! We believe in what You have sent down, and we follow the Messenger ['Iesa (Jesus)]; so
write us down among those who bear witness (to the truth i.e. Lâ ilâha ill-Allâh - none has the right
to be worshipped but Allâh).
54.
And they (disbelievers) plotted [to kill 'Iesa (Jesus) >>], and Allâh planned too. And Allâh is the Best
of the planners.
55.
And (remember) when Allâh said: "O 'Iesa (Jesus)! I will take you and raise you to Myself and clear
you [of the forged statement that 'Iesa (Jesus) is Allâh's son] of those who disbelieve, and I will
make those who follow you (Monotheists, who worship none but Allâh) superior to those who
disbelieve [in the Oneness of Allâh, or disbelieve in some of His Messengers, e.g. Muhammad SAW,
'Iesa (Jesus), Mûsa (Moses), etc., or in His Holy Books, e.g. the Taurât (Torah), the Injeel (Gospel),
the Qur'ân] till the Day of Resurrection[]. Then you will return to Me and I will judge between you in
the matters in which you used to dispute."
56.
"As to those who disbelieve, I will punish them with a severe torment in this world and in the
Hereafter, and they will have no helpers."
57.
And as for those who believe (in the Oneness of Allâh) and do righteous good deeds, Allâh will pay
them their reward in full. And Allâh does not like the Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong-doers).
58.
This is what We recite to you (O Muhammad SAW) of the Verses and the Wise Reminder (i.e. the
Qur'ân).
59.
Verily, the likeness of 'Iesa (Jesus) before Allâh is the likeness of Adam. He created him from dust,
then (He) said to him: "Be!" - and he was.
60.
(This is) the truth from your Lord, so be not of those who doubt.

[wahhab]

61.
Then whoever disputes with you concerning him ['Iesa (Jesus)] after (all this) knowledge that has
come to you, [i.e. 'Iesa (Jesus)] being a slave of Allâh, and having no share in Divinity) say: (O
Muhammad SAW) "Come, let us call our sons and your sons, our women and your women, ourselves
and yourselves - then we pray and invoke (sincerely) the Curse of Allâh upon those who lie."
62.
Verily! This is the true narrative [about the story of 'Iesa (Jesus)], and, Lâ ilâha ill-Allâh (none has
the right to be worshipped but Allâh, the One and the Only True God, Who has neither a wife nor a
son). And indeed, Allâh is the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.
63.
And if they turn away (and do not accept these true proofs and evidences), then surely, Allâh is All-
Aware of those who do mischief.
64.
Say (O Muhammad SAW): "O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians): Come to a word that is
just between us and you, that we worship none but Allâh, and that we associate no partners with
Him, and that none of us shall take others as lords besides Allâh[]. Then, if they turn away, say:
"Bear witness that we are Muslims."
65.
O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians)! Why do you dispute about Ibrâhim (Abraham),
while the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel) were not revealed till after him? Have you then no
sense?
66.
Verily, you are those who have disputed about that of which you have knowledge. Why do you then
dispute concerning that which you have no knowledge? It is Allâh Who knows, and you know not.
67.
Ibrâhim (Abraham) was neither a Jew nor a Christian, but he was a true Muslim Hanifa (Islâmic
Monotheism - to worship none but Allâh Alone) and he was not of Al-Mushrikûn (See V.2:105)[].
68.
Verily, among mankind who have the best claim to Ibrâhim (Abraham) are those who followed him,
and this Prophet (Muhammad SAW) and those who have believed (Muslims). And Allâh is the Walî
(Protector and Helper) of the believers.
69.
A party of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) wish to lead you astray. But they shall
not lead astray anyone except themselves, and they perceive not.
70.
O people of the Scripture! (Jews and Christians): "Why do you disbelieve in the Ayât of Allâh, [the
Verses about Prophet Muhammad SAW present in the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)] while
you (yourselves) bear witness (to their truth)."
71.
O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians): "Why do you mix truth with falsehood and conceal
the truth while you know?"
72.
And a party of the people of the Scripture say: "Believe in the morning in that which is revealed to
the believers (Muslims), and reject it at the end of the day, so that they may turn back.
73.
And believe no one except the one who follows your religion. Say (O Muhammad SAW): "Verily! Right
guidance is the Guidance of Allâh" and do not believe that anyone can receive like that which you
have received (of Revelation) except when he follows your religion, otherwise they would engage
you in argument before your Lord. Say (O Muhammad SAW): "All the bounty is in the Hand[] of Allâh;
He grants to whom He wills. And Allâh is All-Sufficient for His creatures' needs, the All-Knower."
74.
He selects for His Mercy (Islâm and the Qur'ân with Prophethood) whom He wills and Allâh is the
Owner of Great Bounty.
75.
Among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) is he who, if entrusted with a Cantar (a
great amount of wealth, etc.), will readily pay it back; and among them there is he who, if entrusted
with a single silver coin, will not repay it unless you constantly stand demanding, because they say:
"There is no blame on us to betray and take the properties of the illiterates (Arabs)." But they tell a
lie against Allâh while they know it.
76.
Yes, whoever fulfils his pledge and fears Allâh much; verily, then Allâh loves those who are Al-
Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2).
77.
Verily, those who purchase a small gain at the cost of Allâh's Covenant and their oaths, they shall
have no portion in the Hereafter (Paradise). Neither will Allâh speak to them, nor look at them on the
Day of Resurrection, nor will He purify them, and they shall have a painful torment.
78.
And verily, among them is a party who distort the Book with their tongues (as they read), so that you
may think it is from the Book, but it is not from the Book, and they say: "This is from Allâh," but it is
not from Allâh; and they speak a lie against Allâh while they know it.
79.
It is not (possible) for any human being to whom Allâh has given the Book and Al-Hukma (the
knowledge and understanding of the laws of religion, etc.) and Prophethood to say to the people:
"Be my worshippers rather than Allâh's." On the contrary (he would say): "Be you Rabbaniyun
(learned men of religion who practise what they know and also preach others), because you are
teaching the Book, and you are studying it."
80.
Nor would he order you to take angels and Prophets for lords (gods)[]. Would he order you to
disbelieve after you have submitted to Allâh's Will? (Tafsir At-Tabarî).
81.
And (remember) when Allâh took the Covenant of the Prophets, saying: "Take whatever I gave you
from the Book and Hikmah (understanding of the Laws of Allâh, etc.), and afterwards there will
come to you a Messenger (Muhammad SAW) confirming what is with you; you must, then, believe in
him and help him." Allâh said: "Do you agree (to it) and will you take up My Covenant (which I
conclude with you)?" They said: "We agree." He said: "Then bear witness; and I am with you among
the witnesses (for this)."
82.
Then whoever turns away after this, they are the Fâsiqûn (rebellious: those who turn away from
Allâh's Obedience).
83.
Do they seek other than the religion of Allâh (the true Islâmic Monotheism worshipping none but
Allâh Alone), while to Him submitted all creatures in the heavens and the earth, willingly or
unwillingly. And to Him shall they all be returned.
84.
Say (O Muhammad SAW): "We believe in Allâh and in what has been sent down to us, and what was
sent down to Ibrâhim (Abraham), Ismâ'il (Ishmael), Ishâque (Isaac), Ya'qûb (Jacob) and Al-Asbât
[the twelve sons of Ya'qûb (Jacob)] and what was given to Mûsa (Moses), 'Iesa (Jesus) and the
Prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between one another among them and to Him
(Allâh) we have submitted (in Islâm)."
85.
And whoever seeks a religion other than Islâm, it will never be accepted of him, and in the Hereafter
he will be one of the losers[].
86.
How shall Allâh guide a people who disbelieved after their belief and after they bore witness that the
Messenger (Muhammad SAW) is true and after clear proofs had come unto them? And Allâh guides
not the people who are Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong-doers).
87.
They are those whose recompense is that on them (rests) the Curse of Allâh, of the angels, and of
all mankind.
88.
They will abide therein (Hell). Neither will their torment be lightened, nor will it be delayed or
postponed (for a while).
89.
Except for those who repent after that and do righteous deeds. Verily, Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most
Merciful.
90.
Verily, those who disbelieved after their Belief and then went on increasing in their disbelief (i.e.
disbelief in the Qur'ân and in Prophet Muhammad SAW) - never will their repentance be accepted
[because they repent only by their tongues and not from their hearts]. And they are those who are
astray.
91.
Verily, those who disbelieved, and died while they were disbelievers, the (whole) earth full of gold
will not be accepted from anyone of them even if they offered it as a ransom.[] For them is a painful
torment and they will have no helpers.
92.
By no means shall you attain Al-Birr (piety, righteousness, etc., it means here Allâh's Reward, i.e.
Paradise), unless you spend (in Allâh's Cause) of that which you love; and whatever of good you
spend, Allâh knows it well.
93.
All food was lawful to the Children of Israel, except what Israel made unlawful for himself before the
Taurât (Torah) was revealed. Say (O Muhammad SAW): "Bring here the Taurât (Torah) and recite it,
if you are truthful."
94.
Then after that, whosoever shall invent a lie against Allâh, … such shall indeed be the Zâlimûn
(disbelievers).
95.
Say (O Muhammad SAW): "Allâh has spoken the truth; follow the religion of Ibrâhim (Abraham)
Hanifa (Islâmic Monotheism, i.e. he used to worship Allâh Alone), and he was not of Al-
Mushrikûn." (See V.2:105)
96.
Verily, the first House (of worship) appointed for mankind was that at Bakkah (Makkah), full of
blessing, and a guidance for Al-'Alamîn (the mankind and jinns).
97.
In it are manifest signs (for example), the Maqâm (place) of Ibrâhim (Abraham); whosoever enters
it, he attains security. And Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah) to the House (Ka'bah) is a duty that mankind
owes to Allâh, those who can afford the expenses (for one's conveyance, provision and residence);
and whoever disbelieves [i.e. denies Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah), then he is a disbeliever of Allâh],
then Allâh stands not in need of any of the 'Alamîn (mankind and jinns)[].
98.
Say: "O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians)! Why do you reject the Ayât of Allâh (proofs,
evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) while Allâh is Witness to what you do?"
99.
Say: "O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians)! Why do you stop those who have believed,
from the Path of Allâh, seeking to make it seem crooked, while you (yourselves) are witnesses [to
Muhammad SAW as a Messenger of Allâh and Islâm (Allâh's Religion, i.e. to worship none but Him
Alone)]? And Allâh is not unaware of what you do."
100.
O you who believe! If you obey a group of those who were given the Scripture (Jews and
Christians), they would (indeed) render you disbelievers after you have believed!
101.
And how would you disbelieve, while unto you are recited the Verses of Allâh, and among you is His
Messenger (Muhammad SAW)? And whoever holds firmly to Allâh, (i.e. follows Islâm Allâh's Religion,
and obeys all that Allâh has ordered, practically), then he is indeed guided to a Right Path.
102.
O you who believe! Fear Allâh (by doing all that He has ordered and by abstaining from all that He
has forbidden) as He should be feared. [Obey Him, be thankful to Him, and remember Him always],
and die not except in a state of Islâm (as Muslims) with complete submission to Allâh.
103.
And hold fast, all of you together, to the Rope of Allâh (i.e. this Qur'ân), and be not divided among
yourselves[], and remember Allâh's Favour on you, for you were enemies one to another but He
joined your hearts together, so that, by His Grace, you became brethren (in Islâmic Faith), and you
were on the brink of a pit of Fire, and He saved you from it. Thus Allâh makes His Ayât (proofs,
evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.,) clear to you, that you may be guided.
104.
Let there arise out of you a group of people inviting to all that is good (Islâm), enjoining Al-Ma'rûf
(i.e. Islâmic Monotheism and all that Islâm orders one to do) and forbidding Al-Munkar (polytheism
and disbelief and all that Islâm has forbidden). And it is they who are the successful.
105.
And be not as those who divided and differed among themselves after the clear proofs had come to
them. It is they for whom there is an awful torment.
106.
On the Day (i.e. the Day of Resurrection) when some faces will become white and some faces will
become black; as for those whose faces will become black (to them will be said): "Did you reject
Faith after accepting it? Then taste the torment (in Hell) for rejecting Faith."
107.
And for those whose faces will become white, they will be in Allâh's Mercy (Paradise), therein they
shall dwell forever.
108.
These are the Verses of Allâh: We recite them to you (O Muhammad SAW) in truth, and Allâh wills
no injustice to the 'Alâmîn (mankind and jinns).
109.
And to Allâh belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. And all matters go back
(for decision) to Allâh.
110.
You [true believers in Islâmic Monotheism, and real followers of Prophet Muhammad SAW and his
Sunnah (legal ways, etc.)] are the best of peoples ever raised up for mankind; you enjoin Al-Ma'rûf
(i.e. Islâmic Monotheism and all that Islâm has ordained) and forbid Al-Munkar (polytheism, disbelief
and all that Islâm has forbidden), and you believe in Allâh[]. And had the people of the Scripture
(Jews and Christians) believed, it would have been better for them; among them are some who
have faith, but most of them are Al-Fâsiqûn (disobedient to Allâh - and rebellious against Allâh's
Command).
111.
They will do you no harm, barring a trifling annoyance; and if they fight against you, they will show
you their backs, and they will not be helped.

[wahhab]

112.
Indignity is put over them wherever they may be, except when under a covenant (of protection) from
Allâh, and from men; they have drawn on themselves the Wrath of Allâh, and destruction is put over
them. This is because they disbelieved in the Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs,
revelations, etc.) of Allâh and killed the Prophets without right. This is because they disobeyed
(Allâh) and used to transgress beyond bounds (in Allâh's disobedience, crimes and sins).
113.
Not all of them are alike; a party of the people of the Scripture stand for the right, they recite the
Verses of Allâh during the hours of the night, prostrating themselves in prayer.
114.
They believe in Allâh and the Last Day; they enjoin Al-Ma'rûf (Islâmic Monotheism, and following
Prophet Muhammad SAW) and forbid Al-Munkar (polytheism, disbelief and opposing Prophet
Muhammad SAW); and they hasten in (all) good works; and they are among the righteous.
115.
And whatever good they do, nothing will be rejected of them; for Allâh knows well those who are Al-
Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2).
116.
Surely, those who reject Faith (disbelieve in Muhammad SAW as being Allâh's Prophet and in all that
which he has brought from Allâh), neither their properties, nor their offspring will avail them aught
against Allâh. They are the dwellers of the Fire, therein they will abide[]. (Tafsir AtTabarî, Vol. 4,
Page 58).
117.
The likeness of what they spend in this world is the likeness of a wind which is extremely cold; it
struck the harvest of a people who did wrong aginst themselves and destroyed it, (i.e. the good
deed of a person is only accepted if he is a monotheist and believes in all the Prophets of Allâh,
including Christ >> and Muhammad SAW). Allâh wronged them not, but they wronged themselves.
118.
O you who believe! Take not as (your) Bitânah (advisors, consultants, protectors, helpers, friends,
etc.) those outside your religion (pagans, Jews, Christians, and hypocrites) since they will not fail to
do their best to corrupt you. They desire to harm you severely. Hatred has already appeared from
their mouths, but what their breasts conceal is far worse. Indeed We have made plain to you the
Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses) if you understand.
119.
Lo! You are the ones who love them but they love you not, and you believe in all the Scriptures [i.e.
you believe in the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel), while they disbelieve in your Book, the
Qur'ân]. And when they meet you, they say, "We believe". But when they are alone, they bite the tips
of their fingers at you in rage. Say: "Perish in your rage. Certainly, Allâh knows what is in the breasts
(all the secrets)."
120.
If a good befalls you, it grieves them, but if some evil overtakes you, they rejoice at it. But if you
remain patient and become Al-Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2), not the least harm will their cunning
do to you. Surely, Allâh surrounds all that they do.
121.
And (remember) when you (Muhammad SAW) left your household in the morning to post the
believers at their stations for the battle (of Uhud). And Allâh is All-Hearer, All-Knower.
122.
When two parties from among you were about to lose heart, but Allâh was their Walî (Supporter and
Protector). And in Allâh should the believers put their trust.
123.
And Allâh has already made you victorious at Badr, when you were a weak little force. So fear Allâh
much [abstain from all kinds of sins and evil deeds which He has forbidden and love Allâh much,
perform all kinds of good deeds which He has ordained] that you may be grateful.
124.
(Remember) when you (Muhammad SAW) said to the believers, "Is it not enough for you that your
Lord (Allâh) should help you with three thousand angels; sent down?"
125.
"Yes, if you hold on to patience and piety, and the enemy comes rushing at you; your Lord will help
you with five thousand angels having marks (of distinction)."
126.
Allâh made it not but as a message of good news for you and as an assurance to your hearts. And
there is no victory except from Allâh, the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.
127.
That He might cut off a part of those who disbelieve, or expose them to infamy, so that they retire
frustrated.
128.
Not for you (O Muhammad SAW, but for Allâh) is the decision; whether He turns in mercy to
(pardons) them or punishes them; verily, they are the Zâlimûn (polytheists, disobedients, and wrongdoers,
etc.).
129.
And to Allâh belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. He forgives whom He wills,
and punishes whom He wills. And Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
130.
O you who believe! Eat not Ribâ (usury)[] doubled and multiplied, but fear Allâh that you may be
successful.
131.
And fear the Fire, which is prepared for the disbelievers.
132.
And obey Allâh and the Messenger (Muhammad SAW) that you may obtain mercy.[]
133.
And march forth in the way (which leads to) forgiveness from your Lord, and for Paradise as wide as
are the heavens and the earth, prepared for Al-Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2).
134.
Those who spend [in Allâh's Cause - deeds of charity, alms, etc.] in prosperity and in adversity,[]
who repress anger,[] and who pardon men; verily, Allâh loves Al-Muhsinûn[] (the gooddoers).
135.
And those who, when they have committed Fahishah (illegal sexual intercourse etc.) or wronged
themselves with evil, remember Allâh and ask forgiveness for their sins; - and none can forgive sins
but Allâh - And do not persist in what (wrong) they have done, while they know.[]
136.
For such, the reward is Forgiveness from their Lord, and Gardens with rivers flowing underneath
(Paradise), wherein they shall abide forever. How excellent is this reward for the doers (who do
righteous deeds according to Allâh's Orders).
137.
Many similar ways (and mishaps of life) were faced by nations (believers and disbelievers) that have
passed away before you (as you have faced in the battle of Uhud), so travel through the earth, and
see what was the end of those who disbelieved (in the Oneness of Allâh, and disobeyed Him and
His Messengers).
138.
This (the Qur'ân) is a plain statement for mankind, a guidance and instruction to those who are Al-
Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2).
139.
So do not become weak (against your enemy), nor be sad, and you will be superior (in victory) if you
are indeed (true) believers.
140.
If a wound (and killing) has touched you, be sure a similar wound (and killing) has touched the
others. And so are the days (good and not so good), We give to men by turns, that Allâh may test
those who believe, and that He may take martyrs from among you. And Allâh likes not the Zâlimûn
(polytheists and wrongdoers).
141.
And that Allâh may test (or purify) the believers (from sins) and destroy the disbelievers.
142.
Do you think that you will enter Paradise before Allâh tests those of you who fought (in His Cause)
and (also) tests those who are As-Sâbirin (the patient ones, etc.)?
143.
You did indeed wish for death (AshShahâdah - martyrdom) before you met it. Now you have seen it
openly with your own eyes.
144.
Muhammad (SAW) is no more than a Messenger, and indeed (many) Messengers have passed away
before him. If he dies or is killed, will you then turn back on your heels (as disbelievers)? And he
who turns back on his heels, not the least harm will he do to Allâh, and Allâh will give reward to
those who are grateful.
145.
And no person can ever die except by Allâh's Leave and at an appointed term. And whoever desires
a reward in (this) world, We shall give him of it; and whoever desires a reward in the Hereafter, We
shall give him thereof. And We shall reward the grateful.
146.
And many a Prophet (i.e. many from amongst the Prophets) fought (in Allâh's Cause) and along
with him (fought) large bands of religious learned men. But they never lost heart for that which did
befall them in Allâh's Way, nor did they weaken nor degrade themselves. And Allâh loves As-Sâbirin
(the patient ones, etc.).
147.
And they said nothing but: "Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and our transgressions (in keeping our
duties to You), establish our feet firmly, and give us victory over the disbelieving folk."
148.
So Allâh gave them the reward of this world, and the excellent reward of the Hereafter. And Allâh
loves Al-Muhsinûn (the gooddoers - see the footnote of V.3:134).
149.
O you who believe! If you obey those who disbelieve, they will send you back on your heels, and you
will turn back (from Faith) as losers.[]
150.
Nay, Allâh is your Maulâ (Patron, Lord, Helper and Protector, etc.), and He is the Best of helpers.
151.
We shall cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve, because they joined others in worship
with Allâh, for which He had sent no authority; their abode will be the Fire and how evil is the abode
of the Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrongdoers).
152.
And Allâh did indeed fulfil His Promise to you when you were killing them (your enemy) with His
Permission; until (the moment) you lost your courage and fell to disputing about the order, and
disobeyed after He showed you (of the booty) which you love. Among you are some that desire this
world and some that desire the Hereafter. Then He made you flee from them (your enemy), that He
might test you. But surely, He forgave you, and Allâh is Most Gracious to the believers.
153.
(And remember) when you ran away (dreadfully) without even casting a side glance at anyone, and
the Messenger (Muhammad SAW) was in your rear calling you back. There did Allâh give you one
distress after another by way of requital to teach you not to grieve for that which had escaped you,
nor for that which had befallen you. And Allâh is WellAware of all that you do.
154.
Then after the distress, He sent down security for you. Slumber overtook a party of you, while
another party was thinking about themselves (as how to save their ownselves, ignoring the others
and the Prophet SAW) and thought wrongly of Allâh - the thought of ignorance. They said, "Have we
any part in the affair?" Say you (O Muhammad SAW): "Indeed the affair belongs wholly to Allâh."
They hide within themselves what they dare not reveal to you, saying: "If we had anything to do with
the affair, none of us would have been killed here." Say: "Even if you had remained in your homes,
those for whom death was decreed would certainly have gone forth to the place of their death," but
that Allâh might test what is in your breasts; and to Mahis[] that which was in your hearts (sins), and
Allâh is AllKnower of what is in (your) breasts.
155.
Those of you who turned back on the day the two hosts met (i.e. the battle of Uhud), it was Shaitân
(Satan) who caused them to backslide (run away from the battlefield) because of some (sins) they
had earned. But Allâh, indeed, has forgiven them. Surely, Allâh is OftForgiving, Most Forbearing.
156.
O you who believe! Be not like those who disbelieve (hypocrites) and who say to their brethren when
they travel through the earth or go out to fight: "If they had stayed with us, they would not have died
or been killed," so that Allâh may make it a cause of regret in their hearts. It is Allâh that gives life
and causes death. And Allâh is AllSeer of what you do.
157.
And if you are killed or die in the Way of Allâh, forgiveness and mercy from Allâh are far better than
all that they amass (of worldly wealths, etc.).
158.
And whether you die, or are killed, verily, unto Allâh you shall be gathered.
159.
And by the Mercy of Allâh, you dealt with them gently. And had you been severe and harshhearted,
they would have broken away from about you; so pass over (their faults), and ask (Allâh's)
Forgiveness for them; and consult them in the affairs. Then when you have taken a decision, put
your trust in Allâh, certainly, Allâh loves those who put their trust (in Him).
160.
If Allâh helps you, none can overcome you; and if He forsakes you, who is there after Him that can
help you? And in Allâh (Alone) let believers put their trust.
161.
It is not for any Prophet to take illegally a part of booty (Ghulul)[], and whosoever deceives his
companions as regards the booty, he shall bring forth on the Day of Resurrection that which he took
(illegally). Then every person shall be paid in full what he has earned, - and they shall not be dealt
with unjustly.
162.
Is then one who follows (seeks) the good Pleasure of Allâh (by not taking illegally a part of the
booty) like the one who draws on himself the Wrath of Allâh (by taking a part of the booty illegally -
Ghulul)? - his abode is Hell, - and worst, indeed is that destination!
163.
They are in varying grades with Allâh, and Allâh is AllSeer of what they do.
164.
Indeed Allâh conferred a great favour on the believers when He sent among them a Messenger
(Muhammad SAW) from among themselves, reciting unto them His Verses (the Qur'ân), and
purifying them (from sins by their following him), and instructing them (in) the Book (the Qur'ân) and
AlHikmah [the wisdom and the Sunnah of the Prophet SAW (i.e. his legal ways, statements, acts of
worship, etc.)], while before that they had been in manifest error.[]
165.
(What is the matter with you?) When a single disaster smites you, although you smote (your
enemies) with one twice as great, you say: "From where does this come to us?" Say (to them), "It is
from yourselves (because of your evil deeds)." And Allâh has power over all things.
166.
And what you suffered (of the disaster) on the day (of the battle of Uhud when) the two armies met,
was by the leave of Allâh, in order that He might test the believers.
167.
And that He might test the hypocrites, it was said to them: "Come, fight in the Way of Allâh or (at
least) defend yourselves." They said: "Had we known that fighting will take place, we would certainly
have followed you." They were that day, nearer to disbelief than to Faith, saying with their mouths
what was not in their hearts. And Allâh has full knowledge of what they conceal.
168.
(They are) the ones who said about their killed brethren while they themselves sat (at home): "If only
they had listened to us, they would not have been killed." Say: "Avert death from your ownselves, if
you speak the truth."
169.
Think not of those who are killed in the Way of Allâh as dead. Nay, they are alive, with their Lord,
and they have provision.
170.
They rejoice in what Allâh has bestowed upon them of His Bounty, rejoicing for the sake of those
who have not yet joined them, but are left behind (not yet martyred) that on them no fear shall come,
nor shall they grieve.
171.
They rejoice in a Grace and a Bounty from Allâh, and that Allâh will not waste the reward of the
believers.
172.
Those who answered (the Call of) Allâh and the Messenger (Muhammad SAW) after being wounded;
for those of them who did good deeds and feared Allâh, there is a great reward.
173.
Those (i.e. believers) unto whom the people (hypocrites) said, "Verily, the people (pagans) have
gathered against you (a great army), therefore, fear them." But it (only) increased them in Faith, and
they said: "Allâh (Alone) is Sufficient for us, and He is the Best Disposer of affairs (for us).[]"
174.
So they returned with Grace and Bounty from Allâh. No harm touched them; and they followed the
good Pleasure of Allâh. And Allâh is the Owner of Great Bounty.
175.
It is only Shaitân (Satan) that suggests to you the fear of his Auliyâ' [supporters and friends
(polytheists, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allâh and in His Messenger, Muhammad SAW)], so fear
them not, but fear Me, if you are (true) believers.
176.
And let not those grieve you (O Muhammad SAW) who rush with haste to disbelieve; verily, not the
least harm will they do to Allâh. It is Allâh's Will to give them no portion in the Hereafter. For them
there is a great torment.
177.
Verily, those who purchase disbelief at the price of Faith, not the least harm will they do to Allâh. For
them, there is a painful torment.
178.
And let not the disbelievers think that Our postponing of their punishment is good for them. We
postpone the punishment only so that they may increase in sinfulness. And for them is a disgracing
torment.
179.
Allâh will not leave the believers in the state in which you are now, until He distinguishes the wicked
from the good. Nor will Allâh disclose to you the secrets of the Ghaib (unseen), but Allâh chooses of
His Messengers whom He pleases. So believe in Allâh and His Messengers. And if you believe and
fear Allâh, then for you there is a great reward.
180.
And let not those who covetously withhold of that which Allâh has bestowed on them of His Bounty
(Wealth) think that it is good for them (and so they do not pay the obligatory Zakât). Nay, it will be
worse for them; the things which they covetously withheld shall be tied to their necks like a collar on
the Day of Resurrection[]. And to Allâh belongs the heritage of the heavens and the earth; and Allâh
is WellAcquainted with all that you do.
181.
Indeed, Allâh has heard the statement of those (Jews) who say: "Truly, Allâh is poor and we are
rich!" We shall record what they have said and their killing of the Prophets unjustly, and We shall
say: "Taste you the torment of the burning (Fire)."
182.
This is because of that (evil) which your hands have sent before you. And certainly, Allâh is never
unjust to (His) slaves.
183.
Those (Jews) who said: "Verily, Allâh has taken our promise not to believe in any Messenger unless
he brings to us an offering which the fire (from heaven) shall devour." Say: "Verily, there came to
you Messengers before me, with clear signs and even with what you speak of; why then did you kill
them, if you are truthful?"
184.
Then if they reject you (O Muhammad SAW), so were Messengers rejected before you, who came
with Al-Baiyinât (clear signs, proofs, evidences) and the Scripture and the Book of Enlightenment.

[wahhab]

185.
Everyone shall taste death. And only on the Day of Resurrection shall you be paid your wages in full.
And whoever is removed away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise, he indeed is successful. The
life of this world is only the enjoyment of deception (a deceiving thing).
186.
You shall certainly be tried and tested in your wealth and properties and in your personal selves, and
you shall certainly hear much that will grieve you from those who received the Scripture before you
(Jews and Christians) and from those who ascribe partners to Allâh, but if you persevere patiently,
and become Al-Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2) then verily, that will be a determining factor in all
affairs, and that is from the great matters, [which you must hold on with all your efforts].
187.
(And remember) when Allâh took a covenant from those who were given the Scripture (Jews and
Christians) to make it (the news of the coming of Prophet Muhammad SAW and the religious
knowledge) known and clear to mankind, and not to hide it, but they threw it away behind their
backs, and purchased with it some miserable gain! And indeed worst is that which they bought.
188.
Think not that those who rejoice in what they have done (or brought about), and love to be praised
for what they have not done,- think not you that they are rescued from the torment, and for them is a
painful torment.
189.
And to Allâh belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, and Allâh has power over all
things.
190.
Verily! In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the alternation of night and day, there are
indeed signs for men of understanding.
191.
Those who remember Allâh (always, and in prayers) standing, sitting, and lying down on their sides,
and think deeply about the creation of the heavens and the earth, (saying): "Our Lord! You have not
created (all) this without purpose, glory to You! (Exalted be You above all that they associate with
You as partners). Give us salvation from the torment of the Fire.
192.
"Our Lord! Verily, whom You admit to the Fire, indeed, You have disgraced him, and never will the
Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong-doers) find any helpers.
193.
"Our Lord! Verily, we have heard the call of one (Muhammad SAW) calling to Faith: 'Believe in your
Lord,' and we have believed. Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and remit from us our evil deeds, and
make us die in the state of righteousness along with Al-Abrâr (those who are obedient to Allâh and
follow strictly His Orders).
194.
"Our Lord! Grant us what You promised unto us through Your Messengers and disgrace us not on
the Day of Resurrection, for You never break (Your) Promise."
195.
So their Lord accepted of them (their supplication and answered them), "Never will I allow to be lost
the work of any of you, be he male or female. You are (members) one of another, so those who
emigrated and were driven out from their homes, and suffered harm in My Cause, and who fought,
and were killed (in My Cause), verily, I will remit from them their evil deeds and admit them into
Gardens under which rivers flow (in Paradise); a reward from Allâh, and with Allâh is the best of
rewards."
196.
Let not the free disposal (and affluence) of the disbelievers throughout the land deceive you.
197.
A brief enjoyment; then, their ultimate abode is Hell; and worst indeed is that place for rest.
198.
But, for those who fear their Lord, are Gardens under which rivers flow (in Paradise); therein are
they to dwell (for ever), an entertainment from Allâh; and that which is with Allâh is the Best for Al-
Abrâr (those who are obedient to Allâh and follow strictly His Orders).
199.
And there are, certainly, among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), those who
believe in Allâh and in that which has been revealed to you, and in that which has been revealed to
them, humbling themselves before Allâh. They do not sell the Verses of Allâh for a little price, for
them is a reward with their Lord. Surely, Allâh is Swift in account.
200.
O you who believe! Endure and be more patient (than your enemy), and guard your territory by
stationing army units permanently at the places from where the enemy can attack you, and fear
Allâh, so that you may be successful.

[wahhab]

(4) سورة النساء

4. An-Nisâ'
Introduction to this Surat.
In the Name of Allâh, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.
1.
O mankind! Be dutiful to your Lord, Who created you from a single person (Adam), and from him
(Adam) He created his wife [Hawwa (Eve)], and from them both He created many men and women
and fear Allâh through Whom you demand your mutual (rights), and (do not cut the relations of) the
wombs (kinship)[]. Surely, Allâh is Ever an AllWatcher over you.
2.
And give unto orphans their property and do not exchange (your) bad things for (their) good ones;
and devour not their substance (by adding it) to your substance. Surely, this is a great sin.[]
3.
And if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly with the orphangirls, then marry (other)
women of your choice, two or three, or four but if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly
(with them), then only one or (the captives and the slaves) that your right hands possess. That is
nearer to prevent you from doing injustice.
4.
And give to the women (whom you marry) their Mahr (obligatory bridal money given by the husband
to his wife at the time of marriage) with a good heart, but if they, of their own good pleasure, remit
any part of it to you, take it, and enjoy it without fear of any harm (as Allâh has made it lawful).
5.
And give not unto the foolish your property which Allâh has made a means of support for you[], but
feed and clothe them therewith, and speak to them words of kindness and justice.
6.
And try orphans (as regards their intelligence) until they reach the age of marriage; if then you find
sound judgement in them, release their property to them, but consume it not wastefully, and hastily
fearing that they should grow up, and whoever amongst guardians is rich, he should take no wages,
but if he is poor, let him have for himself what is just and reasonable (according to his work). And
when you release their property to them, take witness in their presence; and Allâh is AllSufficient in
taking account.
7.
There is a share for men and a share for women from what is left by parents and those nearest
related, whether, the property be small or large - a legal share.
8.
And when the relatives and the orphans and AlMasâkin (the poor) are present at the time of division,
give them out of the property, and speak to them words of kindness and justice.
9.
And let those (executors and guardians) have the same fear in their minds as they would have for
their own, if they had left weak offspring behind. So let them fear Allâh and speak right words.
10.
Verily, those who unjustly eat up the property of orphans, they eat up only a fire into their bellies,
and they will be burnt in the blazing Fire!
11.
Allâh commands you as regards your children's (inheritance); to the male, a portion equal to that of
two females; if (there are) only daughters, two or more, their share is two thirds of the inheritance; if
only one, her share is half. For parents, a sixth share of inheritance to each if the deceased left
children; if no children, and the parents are the (only) heirs, the mother has a third; if the deceased
left brothers or (sisters), the mother has a sixth. (The distribution in all cases is) after the payment of
legacies he may have bequeathed or debts. You know not which of them, whether your parents or
your children, are nearest to you in benefit, (these fixed shares) are ordained by Allâh. And Allâh is
Ever AllKnower, AllWise.
12.
In that which your wives leave, your share is a half if they have no child; but if they leave a child, you
get a fourth of that which they leave after payment of legacies that they may have bequeathed or
debts. In that which you leave, their (your wives) share is a fourth if you leave no child; but if you
leave a child, they get an eighth of that which you leave after payment of legacies that you may have
bequeathed or debts. If the man or woman whose inheritance is in question has left neither
ascendants nor descendants, but has left a brother or a sister, each one of the two gets a sixth; but
if more than two, they share in a third; after payment of lagacies he (or she) may have bequeathed
or debts, so that no loss is caused (to anyone). This is a Commandment from Allâh; and Allâh is
Ever AllKnowing, MostForbearing.
13.
These are the limits (set by) Allâh (or ordainments as regards laws of inheritance), and whosoever
obeys Allâh and His Messenger (Muhammad SAW) will be admitted to Gardens under which rivers
flow (in Paradise), to abide therein, and that will be the great success.
14.
And whosoever disobeys Allâh and His Messenger (Muhammad SAW), and transgresses His limits,
He will cast him into the Fire, to abide therein; and he shall have a disgraceful torment.
15.
And those of your women who commit illegal sexual intercourse, take the evidence of four
witnesses from amongst you against them; and if they testify, confine them (i.e. women) to houses
until death comes to them or Allâh ordains for them some (other) way.[]
16.
And the two persons (man and woman) among you who commit illegal sexual intercourse, punish
them both.[] And if they repent (promise Allâh that they will never repeat, i.e. commit illegal sexual
intercourse and other similar sins) and do righteous good deeds, leave them alone. Surely, Allâh is
Ever the One Who accepts repentance, (and He is) Most Merciful.
17.
Allâh accepts only the repentance of those who do evil in ignorance and foolishness and repent
soon afterwards; it is they to whom Allâh will forgive and Allâh is Ever AllKnower, AllWise.
18.
And of no effect is the repentance of those who continue to do evil deeds until death faces one of
them and he says: "Now I repent;" nor of those who die while they are disbelievers. For them We
have prepared a painful torment.
19.
O you who believe! You are forbidden to inherit women against their will, and you should not treat
them with harshness, that you may take away part of the Mahr[] you have given them, unless they
commit open illegal sexual intercourse. And live with them honourably. If you dislike them, it may be
that you dislike a thing and Allâh brings through it a great deal of good.
20.
But if you intend to replace a wife by another and you have given one of them a Cantar (of gold i.e. a
great amount) as Mahr, take not the least bit of it back; would you take it wrongfully without a right
and (with) a manifest sin?
21.
And how could you take it (back) while you have gone in unto each other, and they have taken from
you a firm and strong covenant?
22.
And marry not women whom your fathers married, except what has already passed; indeed it was
shameful and most hateful, and an evil way.
23.
Forbidden to you (for marriage) are: your mothers, your daughters, your sisters, your father's sisters,
your mother's sisters, your brother's daughters, your sister's daughters, your foster mother who
gave you suck, your foster milk suckling sisters, your wives' mothers, your step daughters under
your guardianship, born of your wives to whom you have gone in - but there is no sin on you if you
have not gone in them (to marry their daughters), - the wives of your sons who (spring) from your
own loins, and two sisters in wedlock at the same time, except for what has already passed; verily,
Allâh is OftForgiving, Most Merciful.
24.
Also (forbidden are) women already married, except those (captives and slaves) whom your right
hands possess. Thus has Allâh ordained for you. All others are lawful, provided you seek (them in
marriage) with Mahr (bridal money given by the husband to his wife at the time of marriage) from
your property, desiring chastity, not committing illegal sexual intercourse, so with those of whom you
have enjoyed sexual relations, give them their Mahr as prescribed; but if after a Mahr is prescribed,
you agree mutually (to give more), there is no sin on you. Surely, Allâh is Ever AllKnowing, AllWise.
25.
And whoever of you have not the means wherewith to wed free, believing women, they may wed
believing girls from among those (captives and slaves) whom your right hands possess, and Allâh
has full knowledge about your Faith, you are one from another. Wed them with the permission of
their own folk (guardians, Auliyâ' or masters) and give them their Mahr according to what is
reasonable; they (the above said captive and slave-girls) should be chaste, not adulterous, nor
taking boy-friends. And after they have been taken in wedlock, if they commit illegal sexual
intercourse, their punishment is half that for free (unmarried) women.[] This is for him among you
who is afraid of being harmed in his religion or in his body; but it is better for you that you practise
selfrestraint, and Allâh is OftForgiving, Most Merciful.
26.
Allâh wishes to make clear (what is lawful and what is unlawful) to you, and to show you the ways of
those before you, and accept your repentance, and Allâh is AllKnower, AllWise.
27.
Allâh wishes to accept your repentance, but those who follow their lusts, wish that you (believers)
should deviate tremendously away from the Right Path.
28.
Allâh wishes to lighten (the burden) for you; and man was created weak (cannot be patient to leave
sexual intercourse with woman).
29.
O you who believe! Eat not up your property among yourselves unjustly except it be a trade
amongst you, by mutual consent. And do not kill yourselves (nor kill one another). Surely, Allâh is
Most Merciful to you.[]
30.
And whoever commits that through aggression and injustice, We shall cast him into the Fire, and
that is easy for Allâh.
31.
If you avoid the great sins[] which you are forbidden to do, We shall remit from you your (small) sins,
and admit you to a Noble Entrance (i.e. Paradise).
32.
And wish not for the things in which Allâh has made some of you to excel others. For men there is
reward for what they have earned, (and likewise) for women there is reward for what they have
earned, and ask Allâh of His Bounty. Surely, Allâh is Ever AllKnower of everything.
33.
And to everyone, We have appointed heirs of that (property) left by parents and relatives. To those
also with whom you have made a pledge (brotherhood), give them their due portion (by Wasiya
wills, etc.). Truly, Allâh is Ever a Witness over all things.
34.
Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because Allâh has made one of them to excel
the other, and because they spend (to support them) from their means. Therefore the righteous
women are devoutly obedient (to Allâh and to their husbands), and guard in the husband's absence
what Allâh orders them to guard (e.g. their chastity, their husband's property, etc.). As to those
women on whose part you see illconduct, admonish them (first), (next), refuse to share their beds,
(and last) beat them (lightly, if it is useful), but if they return to obedience, seek not against them
means (of annoyance). Surely, Allâh is Ever Most High, Most Great.
35.
If you fear a breach between them twain (the man and his wife), appoint (two) arbitrators, one from
his family and the other from her's; if they both wish for peace, Allâh will cause their
reconciliation. Indeed Allâh is Ever AllKnower, WellAcquainted with all things.
36.
Worship Allâh and join none with Him in worship, and do good to parents, kinsfolk, orphans, Al-
Masâkin (the poor), the neighbour who is near of kin, the neighbour who is a stranger, the
companion by your side, the wayfarer (you meet), and those (slaves) whom your right hands
possess. Verily, Allâh does not like such as are proud and boastful;
37.
Those who are miserly and enjoin miserliness on other men and hide what Allâh has bestowed
upon them of His Bounties. And We have prepared for the disbelievers a disgraceful torment.[]
38.
And (also) those who spend of their substance to be seen of men, and believe not in Allâh and the
Last Day [they are the friends of Shaitân (Satan)], and whoever takes Shaitân (Satan) as an
intimate; then what a dreadful intimate he has!
39.
And what loss have they if they had believed in Allâh and in the Last Day, and they spend out of
what Allâh has given them for sustenance? And Allâh is Ever AllKnower of them.
40.
Surely! Allâh wrongs not even of the weight of an atom (or a small ant)[], but if there is any good
(done), He doubles it, and gives from Him a great reward.
41.
How (will it be) then, when We bring from each nation a witness and We bring you (O Muhammad
SAW) as a witness against these people?
42.
On that day those who disbelieved and disobeyed the Messenger (Muhammad SAW) will wish that
they were buried in the earth, but they will never be able to hide a single fact from Allâh.[]
43.
O you who believe! Approach not AsSalât (the prayer) when you are in a drunken state until you
know (the meaning) of what you utter, nor when you are in a state of Janâba, (i.e. in a state of
sexual impurity and have not yet taken a bath) except when travelling on the road (without enough
water, or just passing through a mosque), till you wash your whole body. And if you are ill, or on a
journey, or one of you comes after answering the call of nature, or you have been in contact with
women (by sexual relations) and you find no water, perform Tayammum with clean earth and rub
therewith your faces and hands (Tayammum)[]. Truly, Allâh is Ever OftPardoning, OftForgiving.
44.
Have you not seen those who were given a portion of the book (the Jews), purchasing the wrong
path, and wish that you should go astray from the Right Path.
45.
Allâh has full knowledge of your enemies, and Allâh is Sufficient as a Walî (Protector), and Allâh is
Sufficient as a Helper.
46.
Among those who are Jews, there are some who displace words from (their) right places and say:
"We hear your word (O Muhammad SAW ) and disobey," and "Hear and let you (O Muhammad SAW)
hear nothing." And Râ'ina[] with a twist of their tongues and as a mockery of the religion
(Islâm). And if only they had said: "We hear and obey", and "Do make us understand," it would have
been better for them, and more proper, but Allâh has cursed them for their disbelief, so they believe
not except a few.
47.
O you who have been given the Scripture (Jews and Christians)! Believe in what We have revealed
(to Muhammad SAW) confirming what is (already) with you, before We efface faces (by making them
like the back of necks; without nose, mouth, eyes, etc.) and turn them hindwards, or curse them as
We cursed the Sabbathbreakers.[] And the Commandment of Allâh is always executed.[]
48.
Verily, Allâh forgives not that partners should be set up with him in worship, but He forgives except
that (anything else) to whom He pleases, and whoever sets up partners with Allâh in worship, he
has indeed invented a tremendous sin.[]
49.
Have you not seen those who claim sanctity for themselves. Nay - but Allâh sanctifies whom He
pleases, and they will not be dealt with injustice even equal to the extent of a Fatilâ (A scalish thread
in the long slit of a datestone).

[wahhab]

50.
Look, how they invent a lie against Allâh, and enough is that as a manifest sin.
51.
Have you not seen those who were given a portion of the Scripture? They believe in Jibt and Tâghût
[] and say to the disbelievers that they are better guided as regards the way than the believers
(Muslims).
52.
They are those whom Allâh has cursed, and he whom Allâh curses, you will not find for him (any)
helper,
53.
Or have they a share in the dominion? Then in that case they would not give mankind even a Naqîra
(speck on the back of a date-stone).
54.
Or do they envy men (Muhammad SAW and his followers) for what Allâh has given them of His
Bounty? Then We had already given the family of Ibrâhim (Abraham) the Book and AlHikmah (As-
Sunnah - Divine Inspiration to those Prophets not written in the form of a book), and conferred upon
them a great kingdom.
55.
Of them were (some) who believed in him (Muhammad SAW), and of them were (some) who averted
their faces from him (Muhammad SAW); and enough is Hell for burning (them).[]
56.
Surely! Those who disbelieved in Our Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations,
etc.) We shall burn them in Fire. As often as their skins are roasted through, We shall change them
for other skins that they may taste the punishment. Truly, Allâh is Ever Most Powerful, AllWise.
57.
But those who believe (in the Oneness of Allâh - Islâmic Monotheism) and do deeds of
righteousness, We shall admit them to Gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise), abiding therein
forever. Therein they shall have Azwâjun Mutahharatun[] [purified mates or wives (having no
menses, stools, urine, etc.)] and We shall admit them to shades wide and ever deepening
(Paradise)[].
58.
Verily! Allâh commands that you should render back the trusts to those, to whom they are due; and
that when you judge between men, you judge with justice. Verily, how excellent is the teaching
which He (Allâh) gives you! Truly, Allâh is Ever AllHearer, AllSeer.
59.
O you who believe! Obey Allâh and obey the Messenger (Muhammad SAW), and those of you
(Muslims) who are in authority. (And) if you differ in anything amongst yourselves, refer it to Allâh
and His Messenger (SAW), if you believe in Allâh and in the Last Day. That is better and more
suitable for final determination.
60.
Have you seen those (hyprocrites) who claim that they believe in that which has been sent down to
you, and that which was sent down before you, and they wish to go for judgement (in their disputes)
to the Tâghût (false judges, etc.) while they have been ordered to reject them. But Shaitân (Satan)
wishes to lead them far astray.[]
61.
And when it is said to them: "Come to what Allâh has sent down and to the Messenger (Muhammad
SAW)," you (Muhammad SAW) see the hypocrites turn away from you (Muhammad SAW) with aversion.
62.
How then, when a catastrophe befalls them because of what their hands have sent forth, they come
to you swearing by Allâh, "We meant no more than goodwill and conciliation!"
63.
They (hypocrites) are those of whom Allâh knows what is in their hearts; so turn aside from them
(do not punish them) but admonish them, and speak to them an effective word (i.e. to believe in
Allâh, worship Him, obey Him, and be afraid of Him) to reach their innerselves.
64.
We sent no Messenger, but to be obeyed by Allâh's Leave. If they (hypocrites), when they had been
unjust to themselves, had come to you (Muhammad SAW) and begged Allâh's Forgiveness, and the
Messenger had begged forgiveness for them: indeed, they would have found Allâh All-Forgiving
(One Who accepts repentance), Most Merciful.
65.
But no, by your Lord, they can have no Faith, until they make you (O Muhammad SAW) judge in all
disputes between them, and find in themselves no resistance against your decisions, and accept
(them) with full submission.
66.
And if We had ordered them (saying), "Kill yourselves (i.e. the innnocent ones kill the guilty ones) or
leave your homes," very few of them would have done it; but if they had done what they were told, it
would have been better for them, and would have strengthened their (Faith);
67.
And indeed We should then have bestowed upon them a great reward from Ourselves.
68.
And indeed We should have guided them to a Straight Way.
69.
And whoso obeys Allâh and the Messenger (Muhammad SAW), then they will be in the company of
those on whom Allâh has bestowed His Grace, of the Prophets, the Siddiqûn (those followers of the
Prophets who were first and foremost to believe in them, like Abu Bakr AsSiddiq
radhiallahu'anhu), the martyrs, and the righteous. And how excellent these companions are!
70.
Such is the Bounty from Allâh, and Allâh is Sufficient as AllKnower.
71.
O you who believe! Take your precautions, and either go forth (on an expedition) in parties, or go
forth all together.
72.
There is certainly among you he who would linger behind (from fighting in Allâh's Cause). If a
misfortune befalls you, he says, "Indeed Allâh has favoured me in that I was not present among
them."
73.
But if a bounty (victory and booty) comes to you from Allâh, he would surely say - as if there had
never been ties of affection between you and him - "Oh! I wish I had been with them; then I would
have achieved a great success ( a good share of booty)."
74.
Let those (believers) who sell the life of this world for the Hereafter fight in the Cause of Allâh, and
whoso fights in the Cause of Allâh, and is killed or gets victory, We shall bestow on him a great
reward.
75.
And what is wrong with you that you fight not in the Cause of Allâh, and for those weak, illtreated
and oppressed among men, women, and children, whose cry is: "Our Lord! Rescue us from this
town whose people are oppressors; and raise for us from You one who will protect, and raise for us
from You one who will help."
76.
Those who believe, fight in the Cause of Allâh, and those who disbelieve, fight in the cause of
Tâghût (Satan, etc.).[] So fight you against the friends of Shaitân (Satan); Ever feeble indeed is the
plot of Shaitân (Satan).
77.
Have you not seen those who were told to hold back their hands (from fighting) and perform As-
Salât (IqâmatasSalât), and give Zakât, but when the fighting was ordained for them, behold! a
section of them fear men as they fear Allâh or even more. They say: "Our Lord! Why have you
ordained for us fighting? Would that you had granted us respite for a short period?" Say: "Short is
the enjoyment of this world. The Hereafter is (far) better for him who fears Allâh, and you shall not
be dealt with unjustly even equal to the Fatilâ (a scalish thread in the long slit of a datestone).
78.
"Wheresoever you may be, death will overtake you even if you are in fortresses built up strong and
high!" And if some good reaches them, they say, "This is from Allâh," but if some evil befalls them,
they say, "This is from you (O Muhammad SAW)." Say: "All things are from Allâh," so what is wrong
with these people that they fail to understand any word?
79.
Whatever of good reaches you, is from Allâh, but whatever of evil befalls you, is from yourself. And
We have sent you (O Muhammad SAW) as a Messenger to mankind, and Allâh is Sufficient as a
Witness.[]
80.
He who obeys the Messenger (Muhammad SAW), has indeed obeyed Allâh, but he who turns away,
then we have not sent you (O Muhammad SAW) as a watcher over them.[]
81.
They say: "We are obedient," but when they leave you (Muhammad SAW), a section of them spend
all night in planning other than what you say. But Allâh records their nightly (plots). So turn aside
from them (do not punish them), and put your trust in Allâh. And Allâh is Ever AllSufficient as a
Disposer of affairs.
82.
Do they not then consider the Qur'ân carefully? Had it been from other than Allâh, they would surely
have found therein much contradictions.
83.
When there comes to them some matter touching (public) safety or fear, they make it known
(among the people), if only they had referred it to the Messenger or to those charged with authority
among them, the proper investigators would have understood it from them (directly). Had it not been
for the Grace and Mercy of Allâh upon you, you would have followed Shaitân (Satan), save a few of
you.
84.
Then fight (O Muhammad SAW) in the Cause of Allâh, you are not tasked (held responsible) except
for yourself, and incite the believers (to fight along with you), it may be that Allâh will restrain the evil
might of the disbelievers. And Allâh is Stronger in Might and Stronger in punishing.
85.
Whosoever intercedes for a good cause will have the reward thereof, and whosoever intercedes for
an evil cause will have a share in its burden. And Allâh is Ever All-Able to do (and also an All-
Witness to) everything.
86.
When you are greeted with a greeting, greet in return with what is better than it, or (at least) return it
equally. Certainly, Allâh is Ever a Careful Account Taker of all things.[]
87.
Allâh! Lâ ilâha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He). Surely, He will gather you
together on the Day of Resurrection about which there is no doubt. And who is truer in statement
than Allâh?
88.
Then what is the matter with you that you are divided into two parties about the hypocrites? Allâh
has cast them back (to disbelief) because of what they have earned. Do you want to guide him
whom Allâh has made to go astray? And he whom Allâh has made to go astray, you will never find
for him any way (of guidance).
89.
They wish that you reject Faith, as they have rejected (Faith), and thus that you all become equal
(like one another). So take not Auliyâ' (protectors or friends) from them, till they emigrate in the Way
of Allâh (to Muhammad SAW). But if they turn back (from Islâm), take (hold) of them and kill them
wherever you find them, and take neither Auliyâ' (protectors or friends) nor helpers from them.
90.
Except those who join a group, between you and whom there is a treaty (of peace), or those who
approach you with their breasts restraining from fighting you as well as fighting their own
people. Had Allâh willed, indeed He would have given them power over you, and they would have
fought you. So if they withdraw from you, and fight not against you, and offer you peace, then Allâh
has opened no way for you against them.
91.
You will find others that wish to have security from you and security from their people. Every time
they are sent back to temptation, they yield thereto. If they withdraw not from you, nor offer you
peace, nor restrain their hands, take (hold) of them and kill them wherever you find them. In their
case, We have provided you with a clear warrant against them.
92.
It is not for a believer to kill a believer except (that it be) by mistake, and whosoever kills a believer
by mistake, (it is ordained that) he must set free a believing slave and a compensation (blood
money, i.e Diya) be given to the deceased's family, unless they remit it. If the deceased belonged to
a people at war with you and he was a believer; the freeing of a believing slave (is prescribed), and
if he belonged to a people with whom you have a treaty of mutual alliance, compensation (blood
money - Diya) must be paid to his family, and a believing slave must be freed. And whoso finds this
(the penance of freeing a slave) beyond his means, he must fast for two consecutive months in
order to seek repentance from Allâh. And Allâh is Ever AllKnowing, AllWise.
93.
And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell to abide therein, and the Wrath
and the Curse of Allâh are upon him, and a great punishment is prepared for him.[]
94.
O you who believe! When you go (to fight) in the Cause of Allâh, verify (the truth), and say not to
anyone who greets you (by embracing Islâm): "You are not a believer"; seeking the perishable
goods of the worldly life. There are much more profits and booties with Allâh. Even as he is now, so
were you yourselves before till Allâh conferred on you His Favours (i.e. guided you to Islâm),
therefore, be cautious in discrimination. Allâh is Ever WellAware of what you do.
95.
Not equal are those of the believers who sit (at home), except those who are disabled (by injury or
are blind or lame, etc.), and those who strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allâh with their wealth
and their lives. Allâh has preferred in grades those who strive hard and fight with their wealth and
their lives above those who sit (at home). Unto each, Allâh has promised good (Paradise), but Allâh
has preferred those who strive hard and fight, above those who sit (at home) by a huge reward;
96.
Degrees of (higher) grades from Him, and Forgiveness and Mercy. And Allâh is Ever OftForgiving,
Most Merciful.
97.
Verily! As for those whom the angels take (in death) while they are wronging themselves (as they
stayed among the disbelievers even though emigration was obligatory for them), they (angels) say
(to them): "In what (condition) were you?" They reply: "We were weak and oppressed on earth."
They (angels) say: "Was not the earth of Allâh spacious enough for you to emigrate therein?" Such
men will find their abode in Hell - What an evil destination![]
98.
Except the weak ones among men, women and children who cannot devise a plan, nor are they
able to direct their way.
99.
For these there is hope that Allâh will forgive them, and Allâh is Ever Oft Pardoning, Oft-Forgiving.
100.
He who emigrates (from his home) in the Cause of Allâh, will find on earth many dwelling places
and plenty to live by. And whosoever leaves his home as an emigrant unto Allâh and His
Messenger, and death overtakes him, his reward is then surely incumbent upon Allâh. And Allâh is
Ever OftForgiving, Most Merciful.
101.
And when you (Muslims) travel in the land, there is no sin on you if you shorten your Salât (prayer) if
you fear that the disbelievers may attack you, verily, the disbelievers are ever unto you open
enemies.
102.
When you (O Messenger Muhammad SAW) are among them, and lead them in As-Salât (the prayer),
let one party of them stand up [in Salât (prayer)] with you taking their arms with them; when they
finish their prostrations, let them take their positions in the rear and let the other party come up
which has not yet prayed, and let them pray with you taking all the precautions and bearing
arms. Those who disbelieve wish, if you were negligent of your arms and your baggage, to attack
you in a single rush, but there is no sin on you if you put away your arms because of the
inconvenience of rain or because you are ill, but take every precaution for yourselves. Verily, Allâh
has prepared a humiliating torment for the disbelievers.[]
103.
When you have finished As-Salât (the prayer - congregational), remember Allâh standing, sitting
down, and lying down on your sides, but when you are free from danger, perform As-Salât (Iqâmatas
Salât). Verily, the prayer is enjoined on the believers at fixed hours.
104.
And don't be weak in the pursuit of the enemy; if you are suffering (hardships) then surely, they (too)
are suffering (hardships) as you are suffering, but you have a hope from Allâh (for the reward,
i.e. Paradise) that for which they hope not, and Allâh is Ever AllKnowing, AllWise.
105.
Surely, We have sent down to you (O Muhammad SAW) the Book (this Qur'ân) in truth that you might
judge between men by that which Allâh has shown you (i.e. has taught you through Divine
Inspiration), so be not a pleader for the treacherous.
106.
And seek the Forgiveness of Allâh,[] certainly, Allâh is Ever OftForgiving, Most Merciful.
107.
And argue not on behalf of those who deceive themselves. Verily, Allâh does not like anyone who is
a betrayer of his trust, and indulges in crime.

[wahhab]

108.
They may hide (their crimes) from men, but they cannot hide (them) from Allâh, for He is with them
(by His Knowledge), when they plot by night in words that He does not approve, And Allâh ever
encompasses what they do.
109.
Lo! You are those who have argued for them in the life of this world, but who will argue for them on
the Day of Resurrection against Allâh, or who will then be their defender?
110.
And whoever does evil or wrongs himself but afterwards seeks Allâh's Forgiveness, he will find Allâh
OftForgiving, Most Merciful.
111.
And whoever earns sin, he earns it only against himself. And Allâh is Ever AllKnowing, AllWise.
112.
And whoever earns a fault or a sin and then throws it on to someone innocent, he has indeed
burdened himself with falsehood and a manifest sin.
113.
Had not the Grace of Allâh and His Mercy been upon you (O Muhammad SAW), a party of them
would certainly have made a decision to mislead you, but (in fact) they mislead none except their
own selves, and no harm can they do to you in the least. Allâh has sent down to you the Book (The
Qur'ân), and AlHikmah (Islâmic laws, knowledge of legal and illegal things i.e. the Prophet's Sunnah
- legal ways), and taught you that which you knew not. And Ever Great is the Grace of Allâh unto
you (O Muhammad SAW).
114.
There is no good in most of their secret talks save (in) him who orders Sadaqah (charity in Allâh's
Cause), or Ma'rûf (Islâmic Monotheism and all the good and righteous deeds which Allâh has
ordained), or conciliation between mankind, and he who does this, seeking the good Pleasure of
Allâh, We shall give him a great reward.
115.
And whoever contradicts and opposes the Messenger (Muhammad SAW) after the right path has
been shown clearly to him, and follows other than the believers' way. We shall keep him in the path
he has chosen, and burn him in Hell - what an evil destination.[]
116.
Verily! Allâh forgives not (the sin of) setting up partners in worship with Him, but He forgives whom
he pleases sins other than that, and whoever sets up partners in worship with Allâh, has indeed
strayed far away.
117.
They (all those who worship others than Allâh) invoke nothing but female deities besides Him
(Allâh), and they invoke nothing but Shaitân (Satan), a persistent rebel!
118.
Allâh cursed him. And he [Shaitân (Satan)] said: "I will take an appointed portion of your slaves;
119.
Verily, I will mislead them, and surely, I will arouse in them false desires; and certainly, I will order
them to slit the ears of cattle, and indeed I will order them to change the nature created by Allâh."
And whoever takes Shaitân (Satan) as a Walî (protector or helper) instead of Allâh, has surely
suffered a manifest loss.[]
120.
He [Shaitan (Satan)] makes promises to them, and arouses in them false desires; and Shaitan's
(Satan) promises are nothing but deceptions.
121.
The dwelling of such (people) is Hell, and they will find no way of escape from it.
122.
But those who believe (in the Oneness of Allâh - Islâmic Monotheism) and do deeds of
righteousness, We shall admit them to the Gardens under which rivers flow (i.e. in Paradise) to
dwell therein forever. Allâh's Promise is the Truth, and whose words can be truer than those of
Allâh? (Of course, none).
123.
It will not be in accordance with your desires (Muslims), nor those of the people of the Scripture
(Jews and Christians), whosoever works evil, will have the recompense thereof, and he will not find
any protector or helper besides Allâh.
124.
And whoever does righteous good deeds, male or female, and is a true believer in the Oneness of
Allâh (Muslim), such will enter Paradise and not the least injustice, even to the size of a Naqîra
(speck on the back of a datestone), will be done to them.
125.
And who can be better in religion than one who submits his face (himself) to Allâh (i.e. follows
Allâh's Religion of Islâmic Monotheism); and he is a Muhsin (a good-doer - see V.2:112). And
follows the religion of Ibrâhim[] (Abraham) Hanifa (Islâmic Monotheism - to worship none but Allâh
Alone). And Allâh did take Ibrâhim (Abraham) as a Khalil (an intimate friend).
126.
And to Allâh belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. And Allâh is Ever
Encompassing all things.
127.
They ask your legal instruction concerning women, say: Allâh instructs you about them, and about
what is recited unto you in the Book concerning the orphan girls whom you give not the prescribed
portions (as regards Mahr and inheritance) and yet whom you desire to marry, and (concerning) the
children who are weak and oppressed, and that you stand firm for justice to orphans. And whatever
good you do, Allâh is Ever AllAware of it.
128.
And if a woman fears cruelty or desertion on her husband's part, there is no sin on them both if they
make terms of peace between themselves; and making peace is better. And human inner-selves
are swayed by greed. But if you do good and keep away from evil, verily, Allâh is Ever Well-
Acquainted with what you do.
129.
You will never be able to do perfect justice between wives even if it is your ardent desire, so do not
incline too much to one of them (by giving her more of your time and provision) so as to leave the
other hanging (i.e. neither divorced nor married). And if you do justice, and do all that is right and
fear Allâh by keeping away from all that is wrong, then Allâh is Ever OftForgiving, Most Merciful.
130.
But if they separate (by divorce), Allâh will provide abundance for everyone of them from His
Bounty. And Allâh is Ever AllSufficient for His creatures' need, AllWise.
131.
And to Allâh belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. And verily, We have
recommended to the people of the Scripture before you, and to you (O Muslims) that you (all) fear
Allâh, and keep your duty to Him, But if you disbelieve, then unto Allâh belongs all that is in the
heavens and all that is in the earth, and Allâh is Ever Rich (Free of all wants), Worthy of all praise.
132.
And to Allâh belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. And Allâh is Ever All-
Sufficient as a Disposer of affairs.
133.
If He wills, He can take you away, O people, and bring others. And Allâh is Ever AllPotent over that.
134.
Whoever desires a reward in this life of the world, then with Allâh (Alone and none else) is the
reward of this worldly life and of the Hereafter. And Allâh is Ever AllHearer, AllSeer.
135.
O you who believe! Stand out firmly for justice, as witnesses to Allâh, even though it be against
yourselves, or your parents, or your kin, be he rich or poor, Allâh is a Better Protector to both (than
you). So follow not the lusts (of your hearts), lest you may avoid justice, and if you distort your
witness or refuse to give it, verily, Allâh is Ever WellAcquainted with what you do.[]
136.
O you who believe! Believe in Allâh, and His Messenger (Muhammad SAW), and the Book (the
Qur'ân) which He has sent down to His Messenger, and the Scripture which He sent down to those
before (him), and whosoever disbelieves in Allâh, His Angels, His Books, His Messengers, and the
Last Day, then indeed he has strayed far away.
137.
Verily, those who believe, then disbelieve, then believe (again), and (again) disbelieve, and go on
increasing in disbelief; Allâh will not forgive them, nor guide them on the (Right) Way.
138.
Give to the hypocrites[] the tidings that there is for them a painful torment.
139.
Those who take disbelievers for Auliyâ' (protectors or helpers or friends) instead of believers, do
they seek honour, power and glory with them? Verily, then to Allâh belongs all honour, power and
glory.
140.
And it has already been revealed to you in the Book (this Qur'ân) that when you hear the Verses of
Allâh being denied and mocked at, then sit not with them, until they engage in a talk other than that;
(but if you stayed with them) certainly in that case you would be like them. Surely, Allâh will collect
the hypocrites and disbelievers all together in Hell,
141.
Those (hyprocrites) who wait and watch about you; if you gain a victory from Allâh, they say: "Were
we not with you," but if the disbelievers gain a success, they say (to them): "Did we not gain mastery
over you and did we not protect you from the believers?" Allâh will judge between you (all) on the
Day of Resurrection. And never will Allâh grant to the disbelievers a way (to triumph) over the
believers.
142.
Verily, the hypocrites seek to deceive Allâh, but it is He Who deceives them.[] And when they stand
up for As-Salât (the prayer), they stand with laziness and to be seen of men, and they do not
remember Allâh but little.
143.
(They are) swaying between this and that, belonging neither to these nor to those, and he whom
Allâh sends astray, you will not find for him a way (to the truth - Islâm).
144.
O you who believe! Take not for Auliyâ' (protectors or helpers or friends) disbelievers instead of
believers. Do you wish to offer Allâh a manifest proof against yourselves?
145.
Verily, the hyprocrites will be in the lowest depths (grade) of the Fire; no helper will you find for
them.[]
146.
Except those who repent (from hypocrisy), do righteous good deeds, hold fast to Allâh, and purify
their religion for Allâh (by worshipping none but Allâh, and do good for Allâh's sake only, not to
show-off), then they will be with the believers. And Allâh will grant to the believers a great reward.
147.
Why should Allâh punish you if you have thanked (Him) and have believed in Him. And Allâh is Ever
AllAppreciative (of good), AllKnowing.
148.
Allâh does not like that the evil should be uttered in public except by him who has been
wronged. And Allâh is Ever AllHearer, AllKnower.
149.
Whether you (mankind) disclose (by good words of thanks) a good deed (done to you in the form of
a favour by someone), or conceal it, or pardon an evil, … verily, Allâh is Ever OftPardoning, All-
Powerful.
150.
Verily, those who disbelieve in Allâh and His Messengers and wish to make distinction between
Allâh and His Messengers (by believing in Allâh and disbelieving in His Messengers) saying, "We
believe in some but reject others," and wish to adopt a way in between.
151.
They are in truth disbelievers. And We have prepared for the disbelievers a humiliating torment.
152.
And those who believe in Allâh and His Messengers and make no distinction between any of them
(Messengers), We shall give them their rewards, and Allâh is Ever OftForgiving, Most Merciful.
153.
The people of the Scripture (Jews) ask you to cause a book to descend upon them from
heaven. Indeed they asked Mûsa (Moses) for even greater than that, when they said: "Show us
Allâh in public," but they were struck with thunder clap and lightning for their wickedness. Then they
worshipped the calf even after clear proofs, evidences, and signs had come to them. (Even) so We
forgave them. And We gave Mûsa (Moses) a clear proof of authority.
154.
And for their covenant, We raised over them the Mount and (on the other occasion) We said: "Enter
the gate prostrating (or bowing) with humility;" and We commanded them: "Transgress not (by doing
worldly works on) the Sabbath (Saturday)." And We took from them a firm covenant[].
155.
Because of their breaking the covenant, and of their rejecting the Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses,
lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) of Allâh, and of their killing the Prophets unjustly, and of their
saying: "Our hearts are wrapped (with coverings, i.e. we do not understand what the Messengers
say)" - nay, Allâh has set a seal upon their hearts because of their disbelief, so they believe not but
a little.
156.
And because of their (Jews) disbelief and uttering against Maryam (Mary >Ç > ) a grave false
charge (that she has committed illegal sexual intercourse);
157.
And because of their saying (in boast), "We killed Messiah 'Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), the
Messenger of Allâh," - but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but the resemblance of 'Iesa
(Jesus) was put over another man (and they killed that man), and those who differ therein are full of
doubts. They have no (certain) knowledge, they follow nothing but conjecture. For surely; they killed
him not [i.e. 'Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary) >>>]:
158.
But Allâh raised him ['Iesa (Jesus)] up (with his body and soul) unto Himself (and he >> is in the
heavens). And Allâh is Ever AllPowerful, AllWise.
159.
And there is none of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), but must believe in him ['Iesa
(Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), as only a Messenger of Allâh and a human being],[] before his ['Iesa
(Jesus) >> or a Jew's or a Christian's] death[] (at the time of the appearance of the angel of
death). And on the Day of Resurrection, he ['Iesa (Jesus)] will be a witness against them.
160.
For the wrongdoing of the Jews, We made unlawful to them certain good foods which has been
lawful to them, and for their hindering many from Allâh's Way;
161.
And their taking of Ribâ (usury) though they were forbidden from taking it and their devouring of
men's substance wrongfully (bribery, etc.). And We have prepared for the disbelievers among them
a painful torment.
162.
But those among them who are well-grounded in knowledge, and the believers, believe in what has
been sent down to you (Muhammad SAW) and what was sent down before you, and those who
perform AsSalât (Iqâmat-as-Salât), and give Zakât and believe in Allâh and in the Last Day, it is they
to whom We shall give a great reward.
163.
Verily, We have inspired you (O Muhammad SAW)[] as We inspired Nûh (Noah) and the Prophets
after him; We (also) inspired Ibrâhim (Abraham), Ismâ'il (Ishmael), Ishâque (Isaac), Ya'qûb (Jacob),
and AlAsbât [the twelve sons of Ya'qûb (Jacob)], 'Iesa (Jesus), Ayub (Job), Yûnus (Jonah), Hârûn
(Aaron), and Sulaimân (Solomon), and to Dawûd (David) We gave the Zabûr (Psalms).
164.
And Messengers We have mentioned to you before, and Messengers We have not mentioned to
you, - and to Mûsa (Moses) Allâh spoke directly.
165.
Messengers as bearers of good news as well as of warning in order that mankind should have no
plea against Allâh after the Messengers. And Allâh is Ever AllPowerful, AllWise.
166.
But Allâh bears witness to that which He has sent down (the Qur'ân) unto you (O Muhammad SAW),
He has sent it down with His Knowledge, and the angels bear witness. And Allâh is All-Sufficient as
a Witness.
167.
Verily, those who disbelieve [by concealing the truth about Prophet Muhammad SAW and his
message of true Islâmic Monotheism written with them in the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)]
and prevent (mankind) from the Path of Allâh (Islâmic Monotheism), they have certainly strayed far
away. (Tafsir Al-Qurtubî). (See V.7:157)
168.
Verily, those who disbelieve and did wrong [by concealing the truth about Prophet Muhammad SAW
and his message of true Islâmic Monotheism written with them in the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel
(Gospel)], Allâh will not forgive them, nor will He guide them to any way, - (Tafsir Al-Qurtubî).
169.
Except the way of Hell, to dwell therein forever, and this is ever easy for Allâh.
170.
O mankind! Verily, there has come to you the Messenger (Muhammad SAW) with the truth from your
Lord, so believe in him, it is better for you. But if you disbelieve, then certainly to Allâh belongs all
that is in the heavens and the earth. And Allâh is Ever AllKnowing, AllWise.
171.
O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians)! Do not exceed the limits in your religion, nor say of
Allâh aught but the truth. The Messiah 'Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), was (no more than) a
Messenger of Allâh and His Word, ("Be!" - and he was) which He bestowed on Maryam (Mary) and
a spirit (Rûh)[] created by Him; so believe in Allâh and His Messengers. Say not: "Three (trinity)!"
Cease! (it is) better for you. For Allâh is (the only) One Ilâh (God), Glory be to Him (Far Exalted is
He) above having a son. To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. And
Allâh is AllSufficient as a Disposer of affairs.[]
172.
The Messiah will never be proud to reject to be a slave to Allâh, nor the angels who are near (to
Allâh). And whosoever rejects His worship and is proud, then He will gather them all together unto
Himself.
173.
So, as for those who believed (in the Oneness of Allâh - Islâmic Monotheism) and did deeds of
righteousness, He will give their (due) rewards, and more out of His Bounty. But as for those who
refuse His worship and were proud, He will punish them with a painful torment . And they will not
find for themselves besides Allâh any protector or helper.
174.
O mankind! Verily, there has come to you a convincing proof (Prophet Muhammad SAW) from your
Lord, and We sent down to you a manifest light (this Qur'ân).
175.
So, as for those who believed in Allâh and held fast to Him, He will admit them to His Mercy and
Grace (i.e. Paradise), and guide them to Himself by a Straight Path.
176.
. They ask you for a legal verdict. Say: "Allâh directs (thus) about AlKalâlah (those who leave neither
descendants nor ascendants as heirs). If it is a man that dies, leaving a sister, but no child, she
shall have half the inheritance. If (such a deceased was) a woman, who left no child, her brother
takes her inheritance. If there are two sisters, they shall have two-thirds of the inheritance; if there
are brothers and sisters, the male will have twice the share of the female. (Thus) does Allâh makes
clear to you (His Law) lest you go astray. And Allâh is the All-Knower of everything."
