Sourate Al-Ma'ida (5) vowelled

In the name of God, the All-Benevolent, the Benevolent. O you who have believed! keep your engagements.i 1

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ أَوْفُوا۟ بِٱلْعُقُودِ

Lawful for you are the beasts of cattle, except what is recited to you — without permitting yourselves the [land] hunt, during the inviolable months.i 1

أُحِلَّتْ لَكُم بَهِيمَةُ ٱلْأَنْعَٰمِ إِلَّا مَا يُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْكُمْ غَيْرَ مُحِلِّى ٱلصَّيْدِ وَأَنتُمْ حُرُمٌ

God decides what He wills. 1

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَحْكُمُ مَا يُرِيدُ

O you who have believed! do not make licit the perceptible markers of God, nor the inviolable month, nor the voluntary offerings, nor the vow-bound offerings, nor those heading toward the Inviolable House, seeking a favor from their Guardian and a good pleasure.i 2

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَا تُحِلُّوا۟ شَعَٰٓئِرَ ٱللَّهِ وَلَا ٱلشَّهْرَ ٱلْحَرَامَ وَلَا ٱلْهَدْىَ وَلَا ٱلْقَلَٰٓئِدَ وَلَآ ءَآمِّينَ ٱلْبَيْتَ ٱلْحَرَامَ يَبْتَغُونَ فَضْلًۭا مِّن رَّبِّهِمْ وَرِضْوَٰنًۭا

And once these months have passed, hunt. 2

وَإِذَا حَلَلْتُمْ فَٱصْطَادُوا۟

And let not the hatred of a people, for having turned you away from the inviolable place of prostration, drive you to transgress. 2

وَلَا يَجْرِمَنَّكُمْ شَنَـَٔانُ قَوْمٍ أَن صَدُّوكُمْ عَنِ ٱلْمَسْجِدِ ٱلْحَرَامِ أَن تَعْتَدُوا۟

Help one another in righteousness and guardedness, 2

وَتَعَاوَنُوا۟ عَلَى ٱلْبِرِّ وَٱلتَّقْوَىٰ

and do not help one another in transgression and transgression. 2

وَلَا تَعَاوَنُوا۟ عَلَى ٱلْإِثْمِ وَٱلْعُدْوَٰنِ

Guard yourselves toward God: 2

وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ

God is severe in punishment. 2

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ شَدِيدُ ٱلْعِقَابِ

Forbidden to you are: the dead animal, blood, the flesh of swine, that which has been consecrated to other than God, the strangled animal, the animal on the brink of death, the animal in a declining state from illness, the animal dead from a blow of the horn, and what a wild beast has devoured — except what you have purified by fire — as well as the animal slaughtered in common whose shares are then drawn by lot with arrows.i 3

حُرِّمَتْ عَلَيْكُمُ ٱلْمَيْتَةُ وَٱلدَّمُ وَلَحْمُ ٱلْخِنزِيرِ وَمَآ أُهِلَّ لِغَيْرِ ٱللَّهِ بِهِۦ وَٱلْمُنْخَنِقَةُ وَٱلْمَوْقُوذَةُ وَٱلْمُتَرَدِّيَةُ وَٱلنَّطِيحَةُ وَمَآ أَكَلَ ٱلسَّبُعُ إِلَّا مَا ذَكَّيْتُمْ وَمَا ذُبِحَ عَلَى ٱلنُّصُبِ وَأَن تَسْتَقْسِمُوا۟ بِٱلْأَزْلَٰمِ

That is an overstepping.i 3

ذَٰلِكُمْ فِسْقٌ

Today, those who deny-disown despair of your Law; 3

ٱلْيَوْمَ يَئِسَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِن دِينِكُمْ

so do not fear them, but fear Me. 3

فَلَا تَخْشَوْهُمْ وَٱخْشَوْنِ

Today, I have perfected for you your Law, I have completed My blessing upon you, and I have approved for you being true to God alone as your Law. 3

ٱلْيَوْمَ أَكْمَلْتُ لَكُمْ دِينَكُمْ وَأَتْمَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ نِعْمَتِى وَرَضِيتُ لَكُمُ ٱلْإِسْلَٰمَ دِينًۭا

But whoever is compelled by hunger, without inclination to transgression — God is indeed Most-Forgiving, full of benevolence. 3

فَمَنِ ٱضْطُرَّ فِى مَخْمَصَةٍ غَيْرَ مُتَجَانِفٍۢ لِّإِثْمٍۢ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورٌۭ رَّحِيمٌۭ

They ask you: what is made lawful for them? 4

يَسْـَٔلُونَكَ مَاذَآ أُحِلَّ لَهُمْ

Say: "Lawful for you are the good things, as well as what you have taught your trained hunting animals, instructing them from what God has taught you. 4

قُلْ أُحِلَّ لَكُمُ ٱلطَّيِّبَٰتُ وَمَا عَلَّمْتُم مِّنَ ٱلْجَوَارِحِ مُكَلِّبِينَ تُعَلِّمُونَهُنَّ مِمَّا عَلَّمَكُمُ ٱللَّهُ

So eat of what they catch for you, and mention the name of God over it. 4

فَكُلُوا۟ مِمَّآ أَمْسَكْنَ عَلَيْكُمْ وَٱذْكُرُوا۟ ٱسْمَ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ

And guard yourselves toward God: 4

وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ

God is swift in reckoning." 4

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ سَرِيعُ ٱلْحِسَابِ

Today, the good things are made lawful for you. The food of those to whom the Scripture was given is lawful for you, and your food is lawful for them. And the contractually protected women among the believers, and the contractually protected women among those to whom the Scripture was given before you, [are lawful for you] when you give them their rewards, as men who bind themselves in contract, not in debauchery nor as takers of secret lovers.i 5

ٱلْيَوْمَ أُحِلَّ لَكُمُ ٱلطَّيِّبَٰتُ وَطَعَامُ ٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُوا۟ ٱلْكِتَٰبَ حِلٌّۭ لَّكُمْ وَطَعَامُكُمْ حِلٌّۭ لَّهُمْ وَٱلْمُحْصَنَٰتُ مِنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنَٰتِ وَٱلْمُحْصَنَٰتُ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُوا۟ ٱلْكِتَٰبَ مِن قَبْلِكُمْ إِذَآ ءَاتَيْتُمُوهُنَّ أُجُورَهُنَّ مُحْصِنِينَ غَيْرَ مُسَٰفِحِينَ وَلَا مُتَّخِذِىٓ أَخْدَانٍۢ

And whoever denies the faith, his deed collapses, and he will be, in the last life, among the losers. 5

وَمَن يَكْفُرْ بِٱلْإِيمَٰنِ فَقَدْ حَبِطَ عَمَلُهُۥ وَهُوَ فِى ٱلْءَاخِرَةِ مِنَ ٱلْخَٰسِرِينَ

O you who have believed! when you rise for the Contact, wash your faces and your hands up to the elbows, and wipe your heads with wet hands, 6

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ إِذَا قُمْتُمْ إِلَى ٱلصَّلَوٰةِ فَٱغْسِلُوا۟ وُجُوهَكُمْ وَأَيْدِيَكُمْ إِلَى ٱلْمَرَافِقِ وَٱمْسَحُوا۟ بِرُءُوسِكُمْ

and your feet up to the knees.i 6

وَأَرْجُلَكُمْ إِلَى ٱلْكَعْبَيْنِ

And if you have soiled yourselves [relieving a need], wash yourselves.i 6

وَإِن كُنتُمْ جُنُبًۭا فَٱطَّهَّرُوا۟

And if you are sick, or on a journey, or one of you has come from relieving himself, or you have known a woman in intimacy, and you find no water, then resort to clean earth, and wipe your faces and your hands with it.i 6

وَإِن كُنتُم مَّرْضَىٰٓ أَوْ عَلَىٰ سَفَرٍ أَوْ جَآءَ أَحَدٌۭ مِّنكُم مِّنَ ٱلْغَآئِطِ أَوْ لَٰمَسْتُمُ ٱلنِّسَآءَ فَلَمْ تَجِدُوا۟ مَآءًۭ فَتَيَمَّمُوا۟ صَعِيدًۭا طَيِّبًۭا فَٱمْسَحُوا۟ بِوُجُوهِكُمْ وَأَيْدِيكُم مِّنْهُ

God does not want to impose any hardship on you, 6

مَا يُرِيدُ ٱللَّهُ لِيَجْعَلَ عَلَيْكُم مِّنْ حَرَجٍۢ

but He wants to purify you, and to complete His blessing upon you, perhaps you will be grateful. 6

وَلَٰكِن يُرِيدُ لِيُطَهِّرَكُمْ وَلِيُتِمَّ نِعْمَتَهُۥ عَلَيْكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ

And remember God's blessing upon you, and His engagement, by which He bound you, when you said: "We have heard and we have obeyed." 7

وَٱذْكُرُوا۟ نِعْمَةَ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ وَمِيثَٰقَهُ ٱلَّذِى وَاثَقَكُم بِهِۦٓ إِذْ قُلْتُمْ سَمِعْنَا وَأَطَعْنَا

And guard yourselves toward God: 7

وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ

God knows perfectly what is in the chests. 7

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلِيمٌۢ بِذَاتِ ٱلصُّدُورِ

O you who have believed! be firm supporters for God, bearing witness with equity, 8

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ كُونُوا۟ قَوَّٰمِينَ لِلَّهِ شُهَدَآءَ بِٱلْقِسْطِ

and let not the hatred of a people drive you to not be equitable. 8

وَلَا يَجْرِمَنَّكُمْ شَنَـَٔانُ قَوْمٍ عَلَىٰٓ أَلَّا تَعْدِلُوا۟

Be equitable: it is closer to guardedness. 8

ٱعْدِلُوا۟ هُوَ أَقْرَبُ لِلتَّقْوَىٰ

And guard yourselves toward God: 8

وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ

God is well informed of what you do. 8

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ خَبِيرٌۢ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ

God has promised those who have believed and done righteous deeds: they will have a forgiveness and an immense reward. 9

وَعَدَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ لَهُم مَّغْفِرَةٌۭ وَأَجْرٌ عَظِيمٌۭ

And those who have denied-disowned and denied Our signs — those are the companions of the Blaze. 10

وَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ وَكَذَّبُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَآ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْجَحِيمِ

O you who have believed! remember God's blessing upon you, when a people had resolved to lay hands on you, and He held their hands back from you. 11

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ ٱذْكُرُوا۟ نِعْمَتَ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ إِذْ هَمَّ قَوْمٌ أَن يَبْسُطُوٓا۟ إِلَيْكُمْ أَيْدِيَهُمْ فَكَفَّ أَيْدِيَهُمْ عَنكُمْ

And guard yourselves toward God: 11

وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ

it is upon God that the believers should rely. 11

وَعَلَى ٱللَّهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ ٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ

God has indeed taken the engagement of the Children of Israel, and We raised up, among them, twelve leaders. 12

وَلَقَدْ أَخَذَ ٱللَّهُ مِيثَٰقَ بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ وَبَعَثْنَا مِنْهُمُ ٱثْنَىْ عَشَرَ نَقِيبًۭا

And God said: "I am with you. 12

وَقَالَ ٱللَّهُ إِنِّى مَعَكُمْ

If you maintain the Contact, give the purifying alms, believe in My messengers, support them, and make God a beautiful loan, I will certainly cover your evil deeds, and I will certainly admit you into gardens beneath which rivers flow. 12

لَئِنْ أَقَمْتُمُ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَءَاتَيْتُمُ ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ وَءَامَنتُم بِرُسُلِى وَعَزَّرْتُمُوهُمْ وَأَقْرَضْتُمُ ٱللَّهَ قَرْضًا حَسَنًۭا لَّأُكَفِّرَنَّ عَنكُمْ سَيِّـَٔاتِكُمْ وَلَأُدْخِلَنَّكُمْ جَنَّٰتٍۢ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَٰرُ

But whoever among you denies-disowns after that has strayed from the straight path." 12

فَمَن كَفَرَ بَعْدَ ذَٰلِكَ مِنكُمْ فَقَدْ ضَلَّ سَوَآءَ ٱلسَّبِيلِ

For having violated their engagement, We cursed them and made their cores hard: they displace words from their context, and have forgotten a part of what they had been reminded of. 13

فَبِمَا نَقْضِهِم مِّيثَٰقَهُمْ لَعَنَّٰهُمْ وَجَعَلْنَا قُلُوبَهُمْ قَٰسِيَةًۭ يُحَرِّفُونَ ٱلْكَلِمَ عَن مَّوَاضِعِهِۦ وَنَسُوا۟ حَظًّۭا مِّمَّا ذُكِّرُوا۟ بِهِۦ

And you will not cease to discover among them a betrayal, except a small number of them. 13

وَلَا تَزَالُ تَطَّلِعُ عَلَىٰ خَآئِنَةٍۢ مِّنْهُمْ إِلَّا قَلِيلًۭا مِّنْهُمْ

So forgive them and overlook: 13

فَٱعْفُ عَنْهُمْ وَٱصْفَحْ

God loves those who do good. 13

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُحِبُّ ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ

And among those who said: "We are the Helpers", We took their engagement, but they forgot a part of what they had been reminded of; We then stirred up among them enmity and hatred, until the Day of Appearance;i 14

وَمِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّا نَصَٰرَىٰٓ أَخَذْنَا مِيثَٰقَهُمْ فَنَسُوا۟ حَظًّۭا مِّمَّا ذُكِّرُوا۟ بِهِۦ فَأَغْرَيْنَا بَيْنَهُمُ ٱلْعَدَاوَةَ وَٱلْبَغْضَآءَ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ

and God will soon inform them of what they used to do. 14

وَسَوْفَ يُنَبِّئُهُمُ ٱللَّهُ بِمَا كَانُوا۟ يَصْنَعُونَ

O people of the Scripture! Our envoy has indeed come to you, making clear to you much of what you were hiding of the Scripture, and passing over much [else].i 15

يَٰٓأَهْلَ ٱلْكِتَٰبِ قَدْ جَآءَكُمْ رَسُولُنَا يُبَيِّنُ لَكُمْ كَثِيرًۭا مِّمَّا كُنتُمْ تُخْفُونَ مِنَ ٱلْكِتَٰبِ وَيَعْفُوا۟ عَن كَثِيرٍۢ

A light has indeed come to you from God, as well as a clear Scripture, by which God guides whoever follows His good pleasure toward the paths of peace,i 16

قَدْ جَآءَكُم مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ نُورٌۭ وَكِتَٰبٌۭ مُّبِينٌۭ يَهْدِى بِهِ ٱللَّهُ مَنِ ٱتَّبَعَ رِضْوَٰنَهُۥ سُبُلَ ٱلسَّلَٰمِ

and brings them out of the darknesses toward the light, with His permission, 16

وَيُخْرِجُهُم مِّنَ ٱلظُّلُمَٰتِ إِلَى ٱلنُّورِ بِإِذْنِهِۦ

and guides them to a straight path. 16

وَيَهْدِيهِمْ إِلَىٰ صِرَٰطٍۢ مُّسْتَقِيمٍۢ

They have indeed denied-disowned, those who said: "God, that is Al-Massih, son of Maryam."i 17

لَّقَدْ كَفَرَ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ ٱبْنُ مَرْيَمَ

Say: "Who then would hold any power against God, if He willed to destroy Al-Massih, son of Maryam, and his mother, and all those on the earth?" 17

قُلْ فَمَن يَمْلِكُ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ شَيْـًٔا إِنْ أَرَادَ أَن يُهْلِكَ ٱلْمَسِيحَ ٱبْنَ مَرْيَمَ وَأُمَّهُۥ وَمَن فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ جَمِيعًۭا

To God belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, and of what is between them. 17

وَلِلَّهِ مُلْكُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا

He creates what He wills. 17

يَخْلُقُ مَا يَشَآءُ

God has power over all things. 17

وَٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍۢ قَدِيرٌۭ

And the Reoriented and the Helpers said: "We are the sons of God and His beloved."i 18

وَقَالَتِ ٱلْيَهُودُ وَٱلنَّصَٰرَىٰ نَحْنُ أَبْنَٰٓؤُا۟ ٱللَّهِ وَأَحِبَّٰٓؤُهُۥ

Say: "Why then does He punish you for your offenses? 18

قُلْ فَلِمَ يُعَذِّبُكُم بِذُنُوبِكُم

You are rather humans, among those He created. 18

بَلْ أَنتُم بَشَرٌۭ مِّمَّنْ خَلَقَ

He forgives whom He wills, and He punishes whom He wills." 18

يَغْفِرُ لِمَن يَشَآءُ وَيُعَذِّبُ مَن يَشَآءُ

To God belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, and of what is between them, 18

وَلِلَّهِ مُلْكُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا

and to Him is the destination. 18

وَإِلَيْهِ ٱلْمَصِيرُ

O people of the Scripture! Our envoy has indeed come to you, making [the truth] clear after a break in envoys, lest you say: "No bearer of good tidings nor warner has come to us" — a bearer of good tidings and a warner has thus indeed come to you.i 19

يَٰٓأَهْلَ ٱلْكِتَٰبِ قَدْ جَآءَكُمْ رَسُولُنَا يُبَيِّنُ لَكُمْ عَلَىٰ فَتْرَةٍۢ مِّنَ ٱلرُّسُلِ أَن تَقُولُوا۟ مَا جَآءَنَا مِنۢ بَشِيرٍۢ وَلَا نَذِيرٍۢ فَقَدْ جَآءَكُم بَشِيرٌۭ وَنَذِيرٌۭ

God has power over all things. 19

وَٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍۢ قَدِيرٌۭ

And remember when Moussa said to his people: "O my people! remember God's blessing upon you, when He placed among you prophets, and made you kings,i 20

وَإِذْ قَالَ مُوسَىٰ لِقَوْمِهِۦ يَٰقَوْمِ ٱذْكُرُوا۟ نِعْمَةَ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ إِذْ جَعَلَ فِيكُمْ أَنۢبِيَآءَ وَجَعَلَكُم مُّلُوكًۭا

and gave you what He gave to none other among all beings.i 20

وَءَاتَىٰكُم مَّا لَمْ يُؤْتِ أَحَدًۭا مِّنَ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ

O my people! enter the sanctified land that God has destined for you, 21

يَٰقَوْمِ ٱدْخُلُوا۟ ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلْمُقَدَّسَةَ ٱلَّتِى كَتَبَ ٱللَّهُ لَكُمْ

and do not turn back, lest you be returned as losers." 21

وَلَا تَرْتَدُّوا۟ عَلَىٰٓ أَدْبَارِكُمْ فَتَنقَلِبُوا۟ خَٰسِرِينَ

They said: "O Moussa! there is there a people of tyrants,i 22

قَالُوا۟ يَٰمُوسَىٰٓ إِنَّ فِيهَا قَوْمًۭا جَبَّارِينَ

and we will not enter it until they have left it; 22

وَإِنَّا لَن نَّدْخُلَهَا حَتَّىٰ يَخْرُجُوا۟ مِنْهَا

if they leave it, then we will enter it." 22

فَإِن يَخْرُجُوا۟ مِنْهَا فَإِنَّا دَٰخِلُونَ

Two men, among those who feared [God], to whom God had granted His blessing, said: "Enter upon them by the gate; 23

قَالَ رَجُلَانِ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَخَافُونَ أَنْعَمَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمَا ٱدْخُلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْبَابَ

once you have entered it, you will certainly be the victors. 23

فَإِذَا دَخَلْتُمُوهُ فَإِنَّكُمْ غَٰلِبُونَ

And it is upon God that you should rely, if you are believers." 23

وَعَلَى ٱللَّهِ فَتَوَكَّلُوٓا۟ إِن كُنتُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ

They said: "O Moussa! we will never enter it, as long as they remain there; go, then, you and your Guardian, and fight, both of you; we, we will stay here, sitting."i 24

قَالُوا۟ يَٰمُوسَىٰٓ إِنَّا لَن نَّدْخُلَهَآ أَبَدًۭا مَّا دَامُوا۟ فِيهَا فَٱذْهَبْ أَنتَ وَرَبُّكَ فَقَٰتِلَآ إِنَّا هَٰهُنَا قَٰعِدُونَ

He said: "My Guardian, I hold power only over my own Selfi 25

قَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّى لَآ أَمْلِكُ إِلَّا نَفْسِى

and my brother; 25

وَأَخِى

so separate us from the people of the oversteppers." 25

فَٱفْرُقْ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ ٱلْقَوْمِ ٱلْفَٰسِقِينَ

He said: "It is, then, forbidden to them, forever,i 26

قَالَ فَإِنَّهَا مُحَرَّمَةٌ عَلَيْهِمْ

forty years, wandering on the earth.i 26

أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةًۭ يَتِيهُونَ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ

So do not grieve for the people of the oversteppers." 26

فَلَا تَأْسَ عَلَى ٱلْقَوْمِ ٱلْفَٰسِقِينَ

And recite to them, in truth, the information of the two sons of Adam, when each offered an offering: it was accepted from one, and was not accepted from the other.i 27

وَٱتْلُ عَلَيْهِمْ نَبَأَ ٱبْنَىْ ءَادَمَ بِٱلْحَقِّ إِذْ قَرَّبَا قُرْبَانًۭا فَتُقُبِّلَ مِنْ أَحَدِهِمَا وَلَمْ يُتَقَبَّلْ مِنَ ٱلْءَاخَرِ

The latter said: "I will certainly kill you." 27

قَالَ لَأَقْتُلَنَّكَ

The former said: "God accepts only from those who guard themselves. 27

قَالَ إِنَّمَا يَتَقَبَّلُ ٱللَّهُ مِنَ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ

If you stretch out your hand toward me to kill me, I will not stretch out my hand toward you to kill you; 28

لَئِنۢ بَسَطتَ إِلَىَّ يَدَكَ لِتَقْتُلَنِى مَآ أَنَا۠ بِبَاسِطٍۢ يَدِىَ إِلَيْكَ لِأَقْتُلَكَ

I fear God, Guardian of all beings. 28

إِنِّىٓ أَخَافُ ٱللَّهَ رَبَّ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ

I want you to return burdened with my transgression and yours, and to be among the companions of the Fire: 29

إِنِّىٓ أُرِيدُ أَن تَبُوٓأَ بِإِثْمِى وَإِثْمِكَ فَتَكُونَ مِنْ أَصْحَٰبِ ٱلنَّارِ

that is the reward of the unjust." 29

وَذَٰلِكَ جَزَٰٓؤُا۟ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ

But his own Self disposed him to the murder of his brother; he killed him, and thus became among the losers. 30

فَطَوَّعَتْ لَهُۥ نَفْسُهُۥ قَتْلَ أَخِيهِ فَقَتَلَهُۥ فَأَصْبَحَ مِنَ ٱلْخَٰسِرِينَ

God then sent a raven, which scratched the earth, to show him how to conceal his brother's nakedness. 31

فَبَعَثَ ٱللَّهُ غُرَابًۭا يَبْحَثُ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ لِيُرِيَهُۥ كَيْفَ يُوَٰرِى سَوْءَةَ أَخِيهِ

He said: "Woe to me! am I unable to be like this raven, and to conceal my brother's nakedness?" And he then became among those who regret. 32

قَالَ يَٰوَيْلَتَىٰٓ أَعَجَزْتُ أَنْ أَكُونَ مِثْلَ هَٰذَا ٱلْغُرَابِ فَأُوَٰرِىَ سَوْءَةَ أَخِى فَأَصْبَحَ مِنَ ٱلنَّٰدِمِينَ مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَٰلِكَ

That is why We prescribed for the Children of Israel that whoever kills a Self, without it being for [another] Self, or for corruption on the earth, it is as if he had killed all mankind together, 32

كَتَبْنَا عَلَىٰ بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ أَنَّهُۥ مَن قَتَلَ نَفْسًۢا بِغَيْرِ نَفْسٍ أَوْ فَسَادٍۢ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ فَكَأَنَّمَا قَتَلَ ٱلنَّاسَ جَمِيعًۭا

and whoever gives life to one [Self], it is as if he had given life to all mankind together. 32

وَمَنْ أَحْيَاهَا فَكَأَنَّمَآ أَحْيَا ٱلنَّاسَ جَمِيعًۭا

Our envoys indeed came to them with clear proofs; then many of them, after that, are indeed excessive on the earth. 32

وَلَقَدْ جَآءَتْهُمْ رُسُلُنَا بِٱلْبَيِّنَٰتِ ثُمَّ إِنَّ كَثِيرًۭا مِّنْهُم بَعْدَ ذَٰلِكَ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ لَمُسْرِفُونَ

The only reward of those who wage war against God and His Messenger, and strive to sow corruption on the earth, is that they be killed, or crucified, or have their hands and feet cut off on opposite sides, or be banished from the earth. 33

إِنَّمَا جَزَٰٓؤُا۟ ٱلَّذِينَ يُحَارِبُونَ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ وَيَسْعَوْنَ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ فَسَادًا أَن يُقَتَّلُوٓا۟ أَوْ يُصَلَّبُوٓا۟ أَوْ تُقَطَّعَ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَأَرْجُلُهُم مِّنْ خِلَٰفٍ أَوْ يُنفَوْا۟ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ

That is for them a humiliation in the present life, 33

ذَٰلِكَ لَهُمْ خِزْىٌۭ فِى ٱلدُّنْيَا

and they will have, in the last life, an immense punishment — except those who turn back [to God] before you have power over them; know then that God is Most-Forgiving, full of benevolence. 34

وَلَهُمْ فِى ٱلْءَاخِرَةِ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمٌ إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ تَابُوا۟ مِن قَبْلِ أَن تَقْدِرُوا۟ عَلَيْهِمْ فَٱعْلَمُوٓا۟ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورٌۭ رَّحِيمٌۭ

O you who have believed! guard yourselves toward God, seek toward Him the means [of nearness], and strive in His way, perhaps you will succeed. 35

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ ٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ وَٱبْتَغُوٓا۟ إِلَيْهِ ٱلْوَسِيلَةَ وَجَٰهِدُوا۟ فِى سَبِيلِهِۦ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ

Those who deny-disown, were they to possess all that is on earth, and its equivalent with it, to ransom themselves from the punishment of the Day of Appearance, it would not be accepted from them, 36

إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ لَوْ أَنَّ لَهُم مَّا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ جَمِيعًۭا وَمِثْلَهُۥ مَعَهُۥ لِيَفْتَدُوا۟ بِهِۦ مِنْ عَذَابِ يَوْمِ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ مَا تُقُبِّلَ مِنْهُمْ

and they will have a painful punishment. 36

وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌۭ

They will want to leave the Fire, but they will not leave it, 37

يُرِيدُونَ أَن يَخْرُجُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلنَّارِ وَمَا هُم بِخَٰرِجِينَ مِنْهَا

and they will have a lasting punishment. 37

وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌۭ مُّقِيمٌۭ

And as for the thief, male and female, stop their supports, as a reward for what they have earned, as an exemplary punishment from God.i 38

وَٱلسَّارِقُ وَٱلسَّارِقَةُ فَٱقْطَعُوٓا۟ أَيْدِيَهُمَا جَزَآءًۢ بِمَا كَسَبَا نَكَٰلًۭا مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ

God is All-Powerful, Wise. 38

وَٱللَّهُ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌۭ

But whoever turns back [to God] after his injustice, and reforms, God turns toward him with clemency. 39

فَمَن تَابَ مِنۢ بَعْدِ ظُلْمِهِۦ وَأَصْلَحَ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَتُوبُ عَلَيْهِ

God is indeed Most-Forgiving, full of benevolence. 39

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورٌۭ رَّحِيمٌ

Do you not know that to God belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth? 40

أَلَمْ تَعْلَمْ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَهُۥ مُلْكُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ

He punishes whom He wills, and He forgives whom He wills. 40

يُعَذِّبُ مَن يَشَآءُ وَيَغْفِرُ لِمَن يَشَآءُ

God has power over all things. 40

وَٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍۢ قَدِيرٌۭ

O messenger! let not those grieve you who hasten into denial-disowning, among those who say: "We have believed" with their mouths, without their cores having believed, 41

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلرَّسُولُ لَا يَحْزُنكَ ٱلَّذِينَ يُسَٰرِعُونَ فِى ٱلْكُفْرِ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوٓا۟ ءَامَنَّا بِأَفْوَٰهِهِمْ وَلَمْ تُؤْمِن قُلُوبُهُمْ

nor among the Reoriented, listeners to falsehood, listeners on behalf of another people who has not come to you. 41

وَمِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ هَادُوا۟ سَمَّٰعُونَ لِلْكَذِبِ سَمَّٰعُونَ لِقَوْمٍ ءَاخَرِينَ لَمْ يَأْتُوكَ

They displace words from their context, saying: "If you are given this, take it; and if you are not given it, beware." 41

يُحَرِّفُونَ ٱلْكَلِمَ مِنۢ بَعْدِ مَوَاضِعِهِۦ يَقُولُونَ إِنْ أُوتِيتُمْ هَٰذَا فَخُذُوهُ وَإِن لَّمْ تُؤْتَوْهُ فَٱحْذَرُوا۟

And whoever God wants to put to the trial, you hold nothing for him against God. 41

وَمَن يُرِدِ ٱللَّهُ فِتْنَتَهُۥ فَلَن تَمْلِكَ لَهُۥ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ شَيْـًٔا

Those are the ones whose cores God has not wanted to purify. 41

أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَمْ يُرِدِ ٱللَّهُ أَن يُطَهِّرَ قُلُوبَهُمْ

They have, in the present life, a humiliation, 41

لَهُمْ فِى ٱلدُّنْيَا خِزْىٌۭ

and they will have, in the last life, an immense punishment. 41

وَلَهُمْ فِى ٱلْءَاخِرَةِ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمٌۭ

Listeners to falsehood, devourers of illicit gain —i 42

سَمَّٰعُونَ لِلْكَذِبِ أَكَّٰلُونَ لِلسُّحْتِ

if they come to you, judge between them, then, or turn away from them; 42

فَإِن جَآءُوكَ فَٱحْكُم بَيْنَهُمْ أَوْ أَعْرِضْ عَنْهُمْ

and if you turn away from them, they cannot harm you at all. 42

وَإِن تُعْرِضْ عَنْهُمْ فَلَن يَضُرُّوكَ شَيْـًۭٔا

And if you judge, judge then between them with equity: 42

وَإِنْ حَكَمْتَ فَٱحْكُم بَيْنَهُم بِٱلْقِسْطِ

God loves the equitable. 42

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُحِبُّ ٱلْمُقْسِطِينَ

And how would they take you as judge, when they have the Tawrah, wherein is the judgment of God, and then they turn away from it? 43

وَكَيْفَ يُحَكِّمُونَكَ وَعِندَهُمُ ٱلتَّوْرَىٰةُ فِيهَا حُكْمُ ٱللَّهِ ثُمَّ يَتَوَلَّوْنَ مِنۢ بَعْدِ ذَٰلِكَ

These are not believers. 43

وَمَآ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ بِٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ

We indeed sent down the Tawrah, wherein is guidance and light; the prophets, who were true to God alone, judged by it the Reoriented, as did the spiritual masters and the rabbis, according to what they were entrusted to guard of God's Scripture, and they were witnesses to it.i 44

إِنَّآ أَنزَلْنَا ٱلتَّوْرَىٰةَ فِيهَا هُدًۭى وَنُورٌۭ يَحْكُمُ بِهَا ٱلنَّبِيُّونَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَسْلَمُوا۟ لِلَّذِينَ هَادُوا۟ وَٱلرَّبَّٰنِيُّونَ وَٱلْأَحْبَارُ بِمَا ٱسْتُحْفِظُوا۟ مِن كِتَٰبِ ٱللَّهِ وَكَانُوا۟ عَلَيْهِ شُهَدَآءَ

So do not fear people, but fear Me, 44

فَلَا تَخْشَوُا۟ ٱلنَّاسَ وَٱخْشَوْنِ

and do not buy, with My signs, a paltry price.i 44

وَلَا تَشْتَرُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِى ثَمَنًۭا قَلِيلًۭا

And those who do not judge according to what God has sent down — those are the deniers. 44

وَمَن لَّمْ يَحْكُم بِمَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْكَٰفِرُونَ

And We prescribed for them, in it: the Self in exchange for the Self, the eye in exchange for the eye, the nose in exchange for the nose, the ear in exchange for the ear, the tooth in exchange for the tooth, and for wounds, an investigation.i 45

وَكَتَبْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ فِيهَآ أَنَّ ٱلنَّفْسَ بِٱلنَّفْسِ وَٱلْعَيْنَ بِٱلْعَيْنِ وَٱلْأَنفَ بِٱلْأَنفِ وَٱلْأُذُنَ بِٱلْأُذُنِ وَٱلسِّنَّ بِٱلسِّنِّ وَٱلْجُرُوحَ قِصَاصٌۭ

But whoever forgoes it as charity, it serves as an expiation for him. 45

فَمَن تَصَدَّقَ بِهِۦ فَهُوَ كَفَّارَةٌۭ لَّهُۥ

And those who do not judge according to what God has sent down — those are the unjust. 45

وَمَن لَّمْ يَحْكُم بِمَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلظَّٰلِمُونَ

And We made Issa, son of Maryam, follow in their footsteps, confirming what, of the Tawrah, preceded him, 46

وَقَفَّيْنَا عَلَىٰٓ ءَاثَٰرِهِم بِعِيسَى ٱبْنِ مَرْيَمَ مُصَدِّقًۭا لِّمَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ مِنَ ٱلتَّوْرَىٰةِ

and We gave him the Injil, wherein is guidance and light, confirming what, of the Tawrah, preceded him, and a guidance and an admonition for those who guard themselves. 46

وَءَاتَيْنَٰهُ ٱلْإِنجِيلَ فِيهِ هُدًۭى وَنُورٌۭ وَمُصَدِّقًۭا لِّمَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ مِنَ ٱلتَّوْرَىٰةِ وَهُدًۭى وَمَوْعِظَةًۭ لِّلْمُتَّقِينَ

And let the people of the Injil judge according to what God sent down in it. 47

وَلْيَحْكُمْ أَهْلُ ٱلْإِنجِيلِ بِمَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ فِيهِ

And those who do not judge according to what God has sent down — those are the oversteppers. 47

وَمَن لَّمْ يَحْكُم بِمَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْفَٰسِقُونَ

And We have sent down to you the Scripture, in truth, confirming what, of the Scripture, preceded it, and prevailing over it.i 48

وَأَنزَلْنَآ إِلَيْكَ ٱلْكِتَٰبَ بِٱلْحَقِّ مُصَدِّقًۭا لِّمَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ مِنَ ٱلْكِتَٰبِ وَمُهَيْمِنًا عَلَيْهِ

Judge, then, between them according to what God has sent down, 48

فَٱحْكُم بَيْنَهُم بِمَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ

and do not follow their emotions, forsaking what has come to you of the truth. 48

وَلَا تَتَّبِعْ أَهْوَآءَهُمْ عَمَّا جَآءَكَ مِنَ ٱلْحَقِّ

To each of you, We have assigned a law and a way. 48

لِكُلٍّۢ جَعَلْنَا مِنكُمْ شِرْعَةًۭ وَمِنْهَاجًۭا

And had God willed, He would have made you one community; 48

وَلَوْ شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ لَجَعَلَكُمْ أُمَّةًۭ وَٰحِدَةًۭ

but [He did not], so as to try you in what He has given you. 48

وَلَٰكِن لِّيَبْلُوَكُمْ فِى مَآ ءَاتَىٰكُمْ

Race, then, to good deeds. 48

فَٱسْتَبِقُوا۟ ٱلْخَيْرَٰتِ

To God will be your return, all together, and He will inform you of what you used to differ over. 48

إِلَى ٱللَّهِ مَرْجِعُكُمْ جَمِيعًۭا فَيُنَبِّئُكُم بِمَا كُنتُمْ فِيهِ تَخْتَلِفُونَ

And: judge between them according to what God has sent down, 49

وَأَنِ ٱحْكُم بَيْنَهُم بِمَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ

and do not follow their emotions, 49

وَلَا تَتَّبِعْ أَهْوَآءَهُمْ

and be wary lest they turn you away from part of what God has sent down to you. 49

وَٱحْذَرْهُمْ أَن يَفْتِنُوكَ عَنۢ بَعْضِ مَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ إِلَيْكَ

And if they turn away, know then that God wants only to strike them for a part of their offenses. 49

فَإِن تَوَلَّوْا۟ فَٱعْلَمْ أَنَّمَا يُرِيدُ ٱللَّهُ أَن يُصِيبَهُم بِبَعْضِ ذُنُوبِهِمْ

And many people are indeed oversteppers. 49

وَإِنَّ كَثِيرًۭا مِّنَ ٱلنَّاسِ لَفَٰسِقُونَ

Would they then seek the judgment of the age of ignorance? 50

أَفَحُكْمَ ٱلْجَٰهِلِيَّةِ يَبْغُونَ

And who judges better than God, for a people who possess certainty? 50

وَمَنْ أَحْسَنُ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ حُكْمًۭا لِّقَوْمٍۢ يُوقِنُونَ

O you who have believed! do not take the Reoriented and the Helpers as allies: 51

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَا تَتَّخِذُوا۟ ٱلْيَهُودَ وَٱلنَّصَٰرَىٰٓ أَوْلِيَآءَ

they are allies of one another. 51

بَعْضُهُمْ أَوْلِيَآءُ بَعْضٍۢ

And whoever among you takes them as allies is then of them. 51

وَمَن يَتَوَلَّهُم مِّنكُمْ فَإِنَّهُۥ مِنْهُمْ

God does not guide the unjust people. 51

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يَهْدِى ٱلْقَوْمَ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ

You see those in whose cores is a sickness rushing among them, saying: "We fear that a setback may strike us"; 52

فَتَرَى ٱلَّذِينَ فِى قُلُوبِهِم مَّرَضٌۭ يُسَٰرِعُونَ فِيهِمْ يَقُولُونَ نَخْشَىٰٓ أَن تُصِيبَنَا دَآئِرَةٌۭ

it may then be that God brings the decisive judgment, or a command from Himself, and they find themselves, for what they hid within themselves, full of regret. 52

فَعَسَى ٱللَّهُ أَن يَأْتِىَ بِٱلْفَتْحِ أَوْ أَمْرٍۢ مِّنْ عِندِهِۦ فَيُصْبِحُوا۟ عَلَىٰ مَآ أَسَرُّوا۟ فِىٓ أَنفُسِهِمْ نَٰدِمِينَ

And those who have believed will say: "Are these the ones who swore by God, with the utmost strength of their oaths, to be indeed with you?" Their works have collapsed, and they have found themselves losers. 53

وَيَقُولُ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ أَهَٰٓؤُلَآءِ ٱلَّذِينَ أَقْسَمُوا۟ بِٱللَّهِ جَهْدَ أَيْمَٰنِهِمْ إِنَّهُمْ لَمَعَكُمْ حَبِطَتْ أَعْمَٰلُهُمْ فَأَصْبَحُوا۟ خَٰسِرِينَ

🖼 ورش قالون البزي قنبل

O you who have believed! whoever among you abandons his Law — God will bring a people whom He loves and who love Him, humble toward the believers, firm toward those who deny-disown, striving in the way of God, and fearing not the blame of any blamer.i 54

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ مَن يَرْتَدَّ مِنكُمْ عَن دِينِهِۦ فَسَوْفَ يَأْتِى ٱللَّهُ بِقَوْمٍۢ يُحِبُّهُمْ وَيُحِبُّونَهُۥٓ أَذِلَّةٍ عَلَى ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَعِزَّةٍ عَلَى ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ يُجَٰهِدُونَ فِى سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ وَلَا يَخَافُونَ لَوْمَةَ لَآئِمٍۢ

ورش قالون

That is the favor of God, which He grants to whom He wills. 54

ذَٰلِكَ فَضْلُ ٱللَّهِ يُؤْتِيهِ مَن يَشَآءُ

God is Vast, All-Knowing. 54

وَٱللَّهُ وَٰسِعٌ عَلِيمٌ

Your protector is only God, and His Messenger, and those who have believed, those who maintain the Contact and give the purifying alms, while bowing [in service]. 55

إِنَّمَا وَلِيُّكُمُ ٱللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُۥ وَٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ ٱلَّذِينَ يُقِيمُونَ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَيُؤْتُونَ ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ وَهُمْ رَٰكِعُونَ

And whoever takes as ally God, His Messenger, and those who have believed — the party of God, those are the victors. 56

وَمَن يَتَوَلَّ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ وَٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ فَإِنَّ حِزْبَ ٱللَّهِ هُمُ ٱلْغَٰلِبُونَ

O you who have believed! do not take as allies those who have made a mockery and a game of your Law, among those to whom the Scripture was given before you, and those who deny-disown.i 57

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَا تَتَّخِذُوا۟ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّخَذُوا۟ دِينَكُمْ هُزُوًۭا وَلَعِبًۭا مِّنَ ٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُوا۟ ٱلْكِتَٰبَ مِن قَبْلِكُمْ وَٱلْكُفَّارَ أَوْلِيَآءَ

And guard yourselves toward God, if you are believers. 57

وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ إِن كُنتُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ

And when you call to the Contact, they take it for mockery and play: 58

وَإِذَا نَادَيْتُمْ إِلَى ٱلصَّلَوٰةِ ٱتَّخَذُوهَا هُزُوًۭا وَلَعِبًۭا

that is because they are a people who do not reason. 58

ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ قَوْمٌۭ لَّا يَعْقِلُونَ

Say: "O people of the Scripture! do you reproach us for anything other than that we believed in God, in what has been revealed to us, and in what was revealed before, and that most of you are oversteppers?"i 59

قُلْ يَٰٓأَهْلَ ٱلْكِتَٰبِ هَلْ تَنقِمُونَ مِنَّآ إِلَّآ أَنْ ءَامَنَّا بِٱللَّهِ وَمَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيْنَا وَمَآ أُنزِلَ مِن قَبْلُ وَأَنَّ أَكْثَرَكُمْ فَٰسِقُونَ

Say: "Shall I inform you of a reward worse than that, with God? He whom God has cursed, with whom He was angered, and of whom He made apes and swine, and he who obeyed the Tyrant — 60

قُلْ هَلْ أُنَبِّئُكُم بِشَرٍّۢ مِّن ذَٰلِكَ مَثُوبَةً عِندَ ٱللَّهِ مَن لَّعَنَهُ ٱللَّهُ وَغَضِبَ عَلَيْهِ وَجَعَلَ مِنْهُمُ ٱلْقِرَدَةَ وَٱلْخَنَازِيرَ وَعَبَدَ ٱلطَّٰغُوتَ

those are the worst in position, and the most astray from the straight path." 60

أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ شَرٌّۭ مَّكَانًۭا وَأَضَلُّ عَن سَوَآءِ ٱلسَّبِيلِ

And when they come to you, they say: "We have believed" — while they entered with denial-disowning, and left with it [still]. 61

وَإِذَا جَآءُوكُمْ قَالُوٓا۟ ءَامَنَّا وَقَد دَّخَلُوا۟ بِٱلْكُفْرِ وَهُمْ قَدْ خَرَجُوا۟ بِهِۦ

God knows best what they were hiding. 61

وَٱللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا كَانُوا۟ يَكْتُمُونَ

And you see many of them rushing into transgression, transgression, and the consumption of illicit gain.i 62

وَتَرَىٰ كَثِيرًۭا مِّنْهُمْ يُسَٰرِعُونَ فِى ٱلْإِثْمِ وَٱلْعُدْوَٰنِ وَأَكْلِهِمُ ٱلسُّحْتَ

How evil is what they used to do! 62

لَبِئْسَ مَا كَانُوا۟ يَعْمَلُونَ

Why do the spiritual masters and the rabbis not forbid them from uttering transgressive speech and consuming illicit gain!i 63

لَوْلَا يَنْهَىٰهُمُ ٱلرَّبَّٰنِيُّونَ وَٱلْأَحْبَارُ عَن قَوْلِهِمُ ٱلْإِثْمَ وَأَكْلِهِمُ ٱلسُّحْتَ

How evil is what they used to fabricate! 63

لَبِئْسَ مَا كَانُوا۟ يَصْنَعُونَ

And the Reoriented said: "God's hand is chained." 64

وَقَالَتِ ٱلْيَهُودُ يَدُ ٱللَّهِ مَغْلُولَةٌ

May their hands be chained, and may they be cursed for what they have said! 64

غُلَّتْ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَلُعِنُوا۟ بِمَا قَالُوا۟

No, His two hands are wide open: He spends as He wills. 64

بَلْ يَدَاهُ مَبْسُوطَتَانِ يُنفِقُ كَيْفَ يَشَآءُ

And what has been sent down to you from your Guardian will certainly increase, among many of them, tyranny and denial-disowning. 64

وَلَيَزِيدَنَّ كَثِيرًۭا مِّنْهُم مَّآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيْكَ مِن رَّبِّكَ طُغْيَٰنًۭا وَكُفْرًۭا

And We have cast among them enmity and hatred, until the Day of Appearance. 64

وَأَلْقَيْنَا بَيْنَهُمُ ٱلْعَدَٰوَةَ وَٱلْبَغْضَآءَ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ

Every time they kindle a fire for war, God extinguishes it, 64

كُلَّمَآ أَوْقَدُوا۟ نَارًۭا لِّلْحَرْبِ أَطْفَأَهَا ٱللَّهُ

and they strive to sow corruption on the earth. 64

وَيَسْعَوْنَ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ فَسَادًۭا

God does not love those who sow corruption. 64

وَٱللَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ ٱلْمُفْسِدِينَ

And had the people of the Scripture believed and guarded themselves, We would indeed have effaced their evil deeds, and We would indeed have admitted them into the Gardens of blessing.i 65

وَلَوْ أَنَّ أَهْلَ ٱلْكِتَٰبِ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَٱتَّقَوْا۟ لَكَفَّرْنَا عَنْهُمْ سَيِّـَٔاتِهِمْ وَلَأَدْخَلْنَٰهُمْ جَنَّٰتِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ

And had they maintained the Tawrah, the Injil, and what was revealed to them from their Guardian, they would indeed have eaten of what is above them and of what is beneath their feet. 66

وَلَوْ أَنَّهُمْ أَقَامُوا۟ ٱلتَّوْرَىٰةَ وَٱلْإِنجِيلَ وَمَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيْهِم مِّن رَّبِّهِمْ لَأَكَلُوا۟ مِن فَوْقِهِمْ وَمِن تَحْتِ أَرْجُلِهِم

Among them, there is a moderate community, 66

مِّنْهُمْ أُمَّةٌۭ مُّقْتَصِدَةٌۭ

but many of them, how evil is what they do! 66

وَكَثِيرٌۭ مِّنْهُمْ سَآءَ مَا يَعْمَلُونَ

O messenger! convey what has been sent down to you from your Guardian, 67

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلرَّسُولُ بَلِّغْ مَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيْكَ مِن رَّبِّكَ

and if you do not do so, you will not have conveyed His message. 67

وَإِن لَّمْ تَفْعَلْ فَمَا بَلَّغْتَ رِسَالَتَهُۥ

ورش شعبة قالون

God protects you from people. 67

وَٱللَّهُ يَعْصِمُكَ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ

God does not guide the people who deny-disown. 67

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يَهْدِى ٱلْقَوْمَ ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ

Say: "O people of the Scripture! you stand on nothing, until you maintain the Tawrah, the Injil, and what has been revealed to you from your Guardian."i 68

قُلْ يَٰٓأَهْلَ ٱلْكِتَٰبِ لَسْتُمْ عَلَىٰ شَىْءٍ حَتَّىٰ تُقِيمُوا۟ ٱلتَّوْرَىٰةَ وَٱلْإِنجِيلَ وَمَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيْكُم مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ

And what has been sent down to you from your Guardian will certainly increase, among many of them, tyranny and denial-disowning. 68

وَلَيَزِيدَنَّ كَثِيرًۭا مِّنْهُم مَّآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيْكَ مِن رَّبِّكَ طُغْيَٰنًۭا وَكُفْرًۭا

So do not grieve for the people who deny-disown. 68

فَلَا تَأْسَ عَلَى ٱلْقَوْمِ ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ

Those who have believed, the Reoriented, the Aspirants, and the Helpers — whoever has believed in God and the Last Day, and done righteous work, no fear upon them, and they will not grieve. 69

إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَٱلَّذِينَ هَادُوا۟ وَٱلصَّٰبِـُٔونَ وَٱلنَّصَٰرَىٰ مَنْ ءَامَنَ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْءَاخِرِ وَعَمِلَ صَٰلِحًۭا فَلَا خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ

We indeed took the engagement of the Children of Israel, and We sent them messengers. 70

لَقَدْ أَخَذْنَا مِيثَٰقَ بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ وَأَرْسَلْنَآ إِلَيْهِمْ رُسُلًۭا

Every time a messenger brought them what their Self did not desire, they denied a group, and another group, they killed. 70

كُلَّمَا جَآءَهُمْ رَسُولٌۢ بِمَا لَا تَهْوَىٰٓ أَنفُسُهُمْ فَرِيقًۭا كَذَّبُوا۟ وَفَرِيقًۭا يَقْتُلُونَ

And they thought there would be no trial; they then became blind and deaf; then God turned toward them with clemency; then, again, they became blind and deaf, 71

وَحَسِبُوٓا۟ أَلَّا تَكُونَ فِتْنَةٌۭ فَعَمُوا۟ وَصَمُّوا۟ ثُمَّ تَابَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ ثُمَّ عَمُوا۟ وَصَمُّوا۟

many of them. 71

كَثِيرٌۭ مِّنْهُمْ

God sees perfectly what they do. 71

وَٱللَّهُ بَصِيرٌۢ بِمَا يَعْمَلُونَ

They have indeed denied-disowned, those who said: "God, that is Al-Massih, son of Maryam." 72

لَقَدْ كَفَرَ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ ٱبْنُ مَرْيَمَ

And Al-Massih said: "O children of Israel! obey God, my Guardian and your Guardian. 72

وَقَالَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ يَٰبَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ ٱعْبُدُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ رَبِّى وَرَبَّكُمْ

Whoever associates other deities with God, God indeed forbids him the Garden, and his refuge will be the Fire." 72

إِنَّهُۥ مَن يُشْرِكْ بِٱللَّهِ فَقَدْ حَرَّمَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ ٱلْجَنَّةَ وَمَأْوَىٰهُ ٱلنَّارُ

And the unjust have no helpers. 72

وَمَا لِلظَّٰلِمِينَ مِنْ أَنصَارٍۢ

They have indeed denied-disowned, those who said: "God is the third of three." 73

لَّقَدْ كَفَرَ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ ثَالِثُ ثَلَٰثَةٍۢ

But there is no deity except one deity. 73

وَمَا مِنْ إِلَٰهٍ إِلَّآ إِلَٰهٌۭ وَٰحِدٌۭ

And if they do not cease what they say, a painful punishment will certainly touch those among them who have denied-disowned. 73

وَإِن لَّمْ يَنتَهُوا۟ عَمَّا يَقُولُونَ لَيَمَسَّنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِنْهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ

Will they not then turn back to God, and ask His forgiveness? 74

أَفَلَا يَتُوبُونَ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ وَيَسْتَغْفِرُونَهُۥ

God is Most-Forgiving, full of benevolence. 74

وَٱللَّهُ غَفُورٌۭ رَّحِيمٌۭ

Al-Massih, son of Maryam, is only a messenger; messengers indeed passed before him, 75

مَّا ٱلْمَسِيحُ ٱبْنُ مَرْيَمَ إِلَّا رَسُولٌۭ قَدْ خَلَتْ مِن قَبْلِهِ ٱلرُّسُلُ

and his mother was a woman of truth; 75

وَأُمُّهُۥ صِدِّيقَةٌۭ

both of them ate food. 75

كَانَا يَأْكُلَانِ ٱلطَّعَامَ

Look how We detail the signs to them, then look how they are turned away! 75

ٱنظُرْ كَيْفَ نُبَيِّنُ لَهُمُ ٱلْءَايَٰتِ ثُمَّ ٱنظُرْ أَنَّىٰ يُؤْفَكُونَ

Say: "Do you obey, besides God, what holds for you neither harm nor benefit? 76

قُلْ أَتَعْبُدُونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مَا لَا يَمْلِكُ لَكُمْ ضَرًّۭا وَلَا نَفْعًۭا

But God is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing." 76

وَٱللَّهُ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ

Say: "O people of the Scripture! do not exceed bounds in your Law, beyond the truth,i 77

قُلْ يَٰٓأَهْلَ ٱلْكِتَٰبِ لَا تَغْلُوا۟ فِى دِينِكُمْ غَيْرَ ٱلْحَقِّ

and do not follow the emotions of a people who have already gone astray, led many astray, and strayed from the straight path." 77

وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوٓا۟ أَهْوَآءَ قَوْمٍۢ قَدْ ضَلُّوا۟ مِن قَبْلُ وَأَضَلُّوا۟ كَثِيرًۭا وَضَلُّوا۟ عَن سَوَآءِ ٱلسَّبِيلِ

They have been cursed, those among the Children of Israel who denied-disowned, by the mouth of Dawud and Issa, son of Maryam.i 78

لُعِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِنۢ بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ عَلَىٰ لِسَانِ دَاوُۥدَ وَعِيسَى ٱبْنِ مَرْيَمَ

That is because they disobeyed and transgressed. 78

ذَٰلِكَ بِمَا عَصَوا۟ وَّكَانُوا۟ يَعْتَدُونَ

They did not forbid one another a disavowed act which they committed: 79

كَانُوا۟ لَا يَتَنَاهَوْنَ عَن مُّنكَرٍۢ فَعَلُوهُ

how evil is what they used to do! 79

لَبِئْسَ مَا كَانُوا۟ يَفْعَلُونَ

You see many of them allying themselves with those who deny-disown: 80

تَرَىٰ كَثِيرًۭا مِّنْهُمْ يَتَوَلَّوْنَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟

how evil is what their Self has prepared for them! God was angered against them, and they abide eternally in the punishment. 80

لَبِئْسَ مَا قَدَّمَتْ لَهُمْ أَنفُسُهُمْ أَن سَخِطَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ وَفِى ٱلْعَذَابِ هُمْ خَٰلِدُونَ

And had they believed in God, in the prophet, and in what was revealed to him, they would not have taken them as allies; 81

وَلَوْ كَانُوا۟ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلنَّبِىِّ وَمَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيْهِ مَا ٱتَّخَذُوهُمْ أَوْلِيَآءَ

ورش قالون

but many of them are oversteppers. 81

وَلَٰكِنَّ كَثِيرًۭا مِّنْهُمْ فَٰسِقُونَ

You will certainly find that the most hostile of people toward those who have believed are the Reoriented and those who have associated, 82

لَتَجِدَنَّ أَشَدَّ ٱلنَّاسِ عَدَٰوَةًۭ لِّلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ ٱلْيَهُودَ وَٱلَّذِينَ أَشْرَكُوا۟

and you will certainly find that the closest in affection toward those who have believed are those who say: "We are the Helpers." 82

وَلَتَجِدَنَّ أَقْرَبَهُم مَّوَدَّةًۭ لِّلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّا نَصَٰرَىٰ

That is because there are, among them, priests and monks, and they are not arrogant. 82

ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّ مِنْهُمْ قِسِّيسِينَ وَرُهْبَانًۭا وَأَنَّهُمْ لَا يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ

And when they hear what has been revealed to the messenger, you see their eyes overflow with tears, for having recognized the truth; they say: "Our Guardian, we have believed; inscribe us, then, among the witnesses. 83

وَإِذَا سَمِعُوا۟ مَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَى ٱلرَّسُولِ تَرَىٰٓ أَعْيُنَهُمْ تَفِيضُ مِنَ ٱلدَّمْعِ مِمَّا عَرَفُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلْحَقِّ يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَآ ءَامَنَّا فَٱكْتُبْنَا مَعَ ٱلشَّٰهِدِينَ

And what reason would we have not to believe in God, and in what has come to us of the truth, when we long for our Guardian to admit us with the righteous people?" 84

وَمَا لَنَا لَا نُؤْمِنُ بِٱللَّهِ وَمَا جَآءَنَا مِنَ ٱلْحَقِّ وَنَطْمَعُ أَن يُدْخِلَنَا رَبُّنَا مَعَ ٱلْقَوْمِ ٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ

God then rewarded them, for what they said, with gardens beneath which rivers flow, wherein they will abide eternally. 85

فَأَثَٰبَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ بِمَا قَالُوا۟ جَنَّٰتٍۢ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَٰرُ خَٰلِدِينَ فِيهَا

That is the reward of those who do good. 85

وَذَٰلِكَ جَزَآءُ ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ

And those who have denied-disowned and denied Our signs — those are the companions of the Blaze. 86

وَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ وَكَذَّبُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَآ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْجَحِيمِ

O you who have believed! do not forbid the good things God has made lawful for you, and do not transgress: 87

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَا تُحَرِّمُوا۟ طَيِّبَٰتِ مَآ أَحَلَّ ٱللَّهُ لَكُمْ وَلَا تَعْتَدُوٓا۟

God does not love the transgressors. 87

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ ٱلْمُعْتَدِينَ

And eat of what God has provided you as sustenance, lawful and good, 88

وَكُلُوا۟ مِمَّا رَزَقَكُمُ ٱللَّهُ حَلَٰلًۭا طَيِّبًۭا

and guard yourselves toward God, in whom you believe. 88

وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ ٱلَّذِىٓ أَنتُم بِهِۦ مُؤْمِنُونَ

God will not hold you to account for the thoughtless in your oaths, 89

لَا يُؤَاخِذُكُمُ ٱللَّهُ بِٱللَّغْوِ فِىٓ أَيْمَٰنِكُمْ

but He will hold you to account for the oaths you have firmly concluded. 89

وَلَٰكِن يُؤَاخِذُكُم بِمَا عَقَّدتُّمُ ٱلْأَيْمَٰنَ

The expiation for it will be to feed ten destitute persons, of the best food with which you feed your families, or to clothe them, or to free a person from the burden of a debt;i 89

فَكَفَّٰرَتُهُۥٓ إِطْعَامُ عَشَرَةِ مَسَٰكِينَ مِنْ أَوْسَطِ مَا تُطْعِمُونَ أَهْلِيكُمْ أَوْ كِسْوَتُهُمْ أَوْ تَحْرِيرُ رَقَبَةٍۢ

and whoever does not find the means, then an abstention of three days. 89

فَمَن لَّمْ يَجِدْ فَصِيَامُ ثَلَٰثَةِ أَيَّامٍۢ

That is the expiation of your oaths, when you swear. 89

ذَٰلِكَ كَفَّٰرَةُ أَيْمَٰنِكُمْ إِذَا حَلَفْتُمْ

And keep your oaths. 89

وَٱحْفَظُوٓا۟ أَيْمَٰنَكُمْ

Thus does God make His signs clear to you, perhaps you will be grateful. 89

كَذَٰلِكَ يُبَيِّنُ ٱللَّهُ لَكُمْ ءَايَٰتِهِۦ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ

O you who have believed! the combination of wine and games of chance, as well as the sharing by lot of common goods, are nothing but a defilement, the work of the Diverter; avoid them, then, perhaps you will succeed.i 90

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ إِنَّمَا ٱلْخَمْرُ وَٱلْمَيْسِرُ وَٱلْأَنصَابُ وَٱلْأَزْلَٰمُ رِجْسٌۭ مِّنْ عَمَلِ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنِ فَٱجْتَنِبُوهُ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ

The Diverter wants only to cast, among you, by wine and games of chance, enmity and hatred, and to turn you away from the remembrance of God and from the Contact.i 91

إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنُ أَن يُوقِعَ بَيْنَكُمُ ٱلْعَدَٰوَةَ وَٱلْبَغْضَآءَ فِى ٱلْخَمْرِ وَٱلْمَيْسِرِ وَيَصُدَّكُمْ عَن ذِكْرِ ٱللَّهِ وَعَنِ ٱلصَّلَوٰةِ

Will you then cease? 91

فَهَلْ أَنتُم مُّنتَهُونَ

And obey God, and obey the messenger, and beware. 92

وَأَطِيعُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُوا۟ ٱلرَّسُولَ وَٱحْذَرُوا۟

But if you turn away, know then that only the clear transmission is incumbent upon Our messenger. 92

فَإِن تَوَلَّيْتُمْ فَٱعْلَمُوٓا۟ أَنَّمَا عَلَىٰ رَسُولِنَا ٱلْبَلَٰغُ ٱلْمُبِينُ

No blame upon those who have believed and done righteous deeds, for what they have tasted, so long as they guarded themselves, believed, and did righteous deeds, then guarded themselves and believed, then guarded themselves and did good.i 93

لَيْسَ عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ جُنَاحٌۭ فِيمَا طَعِمُوٓا۟ إِذَا مَا ٱتَّقَوا۟ وَّءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ ثُمَّ ٱتَّقَوا۟ وَّءَامَنُوا۟ ثُمَّ ٱتَّقَوا۟ وَّأَحْسَنُوا۟

God loves those who do good. 93

وَٱللَّهُ يُحِبُّ ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ

O you who have believed! God will certainly try you with some game that your hands and your spears will reach, so that God may know who fears Him without perceiving Him.i 94

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَيَبْلُوَنَّكُمُ ٱللَّهُ بِشَىْءٍۢ مِّنَ ٱلصَّيْدِ تَنَالُهُۥٓ أَيْدِيكُمْ وَرِمَاحُكُمْ لِيَعْلَمَ ٱللَّهُ مَن يَخَافُهُۥ بِٱلْغَيْبِ

Whoever transgresses after that will have a painful punishment. 94

فَمَنِ ٱعْتَدَىٰ بَعْدَ ذَٰلِكَ فَلَهُۥ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌۭ

O you who have believed! do not kill game during the inviolable months. 95

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَا تَقْتُلُوا۟ ٱلصَّيْدَ وَأَنتُمْ حُرُمٌۭ

And whoever among you kills it intentionally, an equivalent compensation in cattle, as two equitable [persons] among you shall decide, as an offering reaching the Ka'ba, or an expiation consisting of feeding the destitute, or the equivalent of that in abstention, so that he may taste the ill consequences of his deed.i 95

وَمَن قَتَلَهُۥ مِنكُم مُّتَعَمِّدًۭا فَجَزَآءٌۭ مِّثْلُ مَا قَتَلَ مِنَ ٱلنَّعَمِ يَحْكُمُ بِهِۦ ذَوَا عَدْلٍۢ مِّنكُمْ هَدْيًۢا بَٰلِغَ ٱلْكَعْبَةِ أَوْ كَفَّٰرَةٌۭ طَعَامُ مَسَٰكِينَ أَوْ عَدْلُ ذَٰلِكَ صِيَامًۭا لِّيَذُوقَ وَبَالَ أَمْرِهِۦ

God has forgiven what is past; 95

عَفَا ٱللَّهُ عَمَّا سَلَفَ

but whoever relapses, God will take vengeance upon him. 95

وَمَنْ عَادَ فَيَنتَقِمُ ٱللَّهُ مِنْهُ

God is All-Powerful, possessor of vengeance. 95

وَٱللَّهُ عَزِيزٌۭ ذُو ٱنتِقَامٍ

Lawful for you is made the game of the sea and its food, 96

أُحِلَّ لَكُمْ صَيْدُ ٱلْبَحْرِ وَطَعَامُهُۥ

as an enjoyment for you and for travelers; 96

مَتَٰعًۭا لَّكُمْ وَلِلسَّيَّارَةِ

but forbidden to you is the game of the land for as long as the inviolable months last. 96

وَحُرِّمَ عَلَيْكُمْ صَيْدُ ٱلْبَرِّ مَا دُمْتُمْ حُرُمًۭا

And guard yourselves toward God, to whom you will be gathered. 96

وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ ٱلَّذِىٓ إِلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُونَ

God has made the Ka'ba, the Inviolable House, a support [of stability] for mankind, as well as the inviolable month, the voluntary offerings, and the vow-bound offerings.i 97

جَعَلَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْكَعْبَةَ ٱلْبَيْتَ ٱلْحَرَامَ قِيَٰمًۭا لِّلنَّاسِ وَٱلشَّهْرَ ٱلْحَرَامَ وَٱلْهَدْىَ وَٱلْقَلَٰٓئِدَ

That, so that you may know that God knows what is in the heavens and what is on the earth, and that God is, of all things, All-Knowing. 97

ذَٰلِكَ لِتَعْلَمُوٓا۟ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَعْلَمُ مَا فِى ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَمَا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ بِكُلِّ شَىْءٍ عَلِيمٌ

Know that God is severe in punishment, and that God is Most-Forgiving, full of benevolence. 98

ٱعْلَمُوٓا۟ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ شَدِيدُ ٱلْعِقَابِ وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورٌۭ رَّحِيمٌۭ

Upon the messenger is incumbent only the transmission. 99

مَّا عَلَى ٱلرَّسُولِ إِلَّا ٱلْبَلَٰغُ

God knows what you show and what you hide. 99

وَٱللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ مَا تُبْدُونَ وَمَا تَكْتُمُونَ

Say: "The vile and the good are not equal, even if the abundance of the vile amazes you." 100

قُل لَّا يَسْتَوِى ٱلْخَبِيثُ وَٱلطَّيِّبُ وَلَوْ أَعْجَبَكَ كَثْرَةُ ٱلْخَبِيثِ

So guard yourselves toward God, O possessors of intelligence, perhaps you will succeed. 100

فَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ يَٰٓأُو۟لِى ٱلْأَلْبَٰبِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ

O you who have believed! do not ask about things which, if disclosed to you, would grieve you. 101

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَا تَسْـَٔلُوا۟ عَنْ أَشْيَآءَ إِن تُبْدَ لَكُمْ تَسُؤْكُمْ

And if you ask them while this Recitation is being revealed, they will be disclosed to you. God has passed over that. 101

وَإِن تَسْـَٔلُوا۟ عَنْهَا حِينَ يُنَزَّلُ ٱلْقُرْءَانُ تُبْدَ لَكُمْ عَفَا ٱللَّهُ عَنْهَا

God is Most-Forgiving, full of patience. 101

وَٱللَّهُ غَفُورٌ حَلِيمٌۭ

A people, before you, asked them, then became, because of them, a people who deny-disown. 102

قَدْ سَأَلَهَا قَوْمٌۭ مِّن قَبْلِكُمْ ثُمَّ أَصْبَحُوا۟ بِهَا كَٰفِرِينَ

God did not institute any bahira, sa'iba, wasila, or ham,i 103

مَا جَعَلَ ٱللَّهُ مِنۢ بَحِيرَةٍۢ وَلَا سَآئِبَةٍۢ وَلَا وَصِيلَةٍۢ وَلَا حَامٍۢ

but those who deny-disown invent the lie against God, and most of them do not reason. 103

وَلَٰكِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ يَفْتَرُونَ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ ٱلْكَذِبَ وَأَكْثَرُهُمْ لَا يَعْقِلُونَ

And when it is said to them: "Come to what God has sent down, and to the messenger", they say: "It suffices us what we found our ancestors upon." 104

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمْ تَعَالَوْا۟ إِلَىٰ مَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ وَإِلَى ٱلرَّسُولِ قَالُوا۟ حَسْبُنَا مَا وَجَدْنَا عَلَيْهِ ءَابَآءَنَآ

Is that so, even if their ancestors knew nothing, and were not rightly guided? 104

أَوَلَوْ كَانَ ءَابَآؤُهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ شَيْـًۭٔا وَلَا يَهْتَدُونَ

O you who have believed! look to yourselves: 105

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ عَلَيْكُمْ أَنفُسَكُمْ

he who strays cannot harm you, so long as you are rightly guided. 105

لَا يَضُرُّكُم مَّن ضَلَّ إِذَا ٱهْتَدَيْتُمْ

To God will be your return, all together, and He will inform you of what you used to do. 105

إِلَى ٱللَّهِ مَرْجِعُكُمْ جَمِيعًۭا فَيُنَبِّئُكُم بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ

O you who have believed! testimony between you, when death presents itself to one of you, at the time of the testament: two equitable [persons] among you, or two others, outside your circle, if you are traveling on the earth and the calamity of death strikes you.i 106

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ شَهَٰدَةُ بَيْنِكُمْ إِذَا حَضَرَ أَحَدَكُمُ ٱلْمَوْتُ حِينَ ٱلْوَصِيَّةِ ٱثْنَانِ ذَوَا عَدْلٍۢ مِّنكُمْ أَوْ ءَاخَرَانِ مِنْ غَيْرِكُمْ إِنْ أَنتُمْ ضَرَبْتُمْ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ فَأَصَٰبَتْكُم مُّصِيبَةُ ٱلْمَوْتِ

You will detain them both after the Contact, and they will both swear by God, if you have doubts: "We will not trade it for any price, even toward a relative, 106

تَحْبِسُونَهُمَا مِنۢ بَعْدِ ٱلصَّلَوٰةِ فَيُقْسِمَانِ بِٱللَّهِ إِنِ ٱرْتَبْتُمْ لَا نَشْتَرِى بِهِۦ ثَمَنًۭا وَلَوْ كَانَ ذَا قُرْبَىٰ

and we will not hide the testimony of God; we would then indeed be among the transgressors." 106

وَلَا نَكْتُمُ شَهَٰدَةَ ٱللَّهِ إِنَّآ إِذًۭا لَّمِنَ ٱلْءَاثِمِينَ

But if it is discovered that both have been guilty of a transgression, two others will take their place, from among those against whom the wrong was committed, the two nearest [heirs], and they will both swear 107

فَإِنْ عُثِرَ عَلَىٰٓ أَنَّهُمَا ٱسْتَحَقَّآ إِثْمًۭا فَـَٔاخَرَانِ يَقُومَانِ مَقَامَهُمَا مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱسْتَحَقَّ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْأَوْلَيَٰنِ فَيُقْسِمَانِ

شعبة

by God: "Our testimony is indeed more worthy than theirs, and we have not transgressed; 107

بِٱللَّهِ لَشَهَٰدَتُنَآ أَحَقُّ مِن شَهَٰدَتِهِمَا وَمَا ٱعْتَدَيْنَآ

we would then indeed be among the unjust." 107

إِنَّآ إِذًۭا لَّمِنَ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ

That is closer to their bringing testimony in its proper form, or their fearing that other oaths might be opposed to their oaths. 108

ذَٰلِكَ أَدْنَىٰٓ أَن يَأْتُوا۟ بِٱلشَّهَٰدَةِ عَلَىٰ وَجْهِهَآ أَوْ يَخَافُوٓا۟ أَن تُرَدَّ أَيْمَٰنٌۢ بَعْدَ أَيْمَٰنِهِمْ

And guard yourselves toward God, 108

وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ

and listen: 108

وَٱسْمَعُوا۟

God does not guide the people of the oversteppers. 108

وَٱللَّهُ لَا يَهْدِى ٱلْقَوْمَ ٱلْفَٰسِقِينَ

The day God gathers the messengers, and says: "What answer were you given?" 109

يَوْمَ يَجْمَعُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلرُّسُلَ فَيَقُولُ مَاذَآ أُجِبْتُمْ

They will say: "We have no knowledge of it; You are the great Knower of what escapes the senses."i 109

قَالُوا۟ لَا عِلْمَ لَنَآ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ عَلَّٰمُ ٱلْغُيُوبِ

remember when God will say: "O Issa, son of Maryam! remember My blessing upon you and upon your mother, when I reinforced you with the sacred Influx, you spoke to people in the cradle and in maturity,i 110

إِذْ قَالَ ٱللَّهُ يَٰعِيسَى ٱبْنَ مَرْيَمَ ٱذْكُرْ نِعْمَتِى عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَىٰ وَٰلِدَتِكَ إِذْ أَيَّدتُّكَ بِرُوحِ ٱلْقُدُسِ تُكَلِّمُ ٱلنَّاسَ فِى ٱلْمَهْدِ وَكَهْلًۭا

and when I taught you the Code, the wisdom, the Tawrah, and the Injil;i 110

وَإِذْ عَلَّمْتُكَ ٱلْكِتَٰبَ وَٱلْحِكْمَةَ وَٱلتَّوْرَىٰةَ وَٱلْإِنجِيلَ

and when you fashioned out of clay the form of a bird, with My permission, then breathed into it, and it became a bird, with My permission; 110

وَإِذْ تَخْلُقُ مِنَ ٱلطِّينِ كَهَيْـَٔةِ ٱلطَّيْرِ بِإِذْنِى فَتَنفُخُ فِيهَا فَتَكُونُ طَيْرًۢا بِإِذْنِى

ورش قالون

and you healed the born-blind and the leper, with My permission; 110

وَتُبْرِئُ ٱلْأَكْمَهَ وَٱلْأَبْرَصَ بِإِذْنِى

and when you brought forth the dead, with My permission; 110

وَإِذْ تُخْرِجُ ٱلْمَوْتَىٰ بِإِذْنِى

and when I restrained from you the Children of Israel, when you came to them with clear proofs, and those among them who denied-disowned said: "This is nothing but a manifest illusion." 110

وَإِذْ كَفَفْتُ بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ عَنكَ إِذْ جِئْتَهُم بِٱلْبَيِّنَٰتِ فَقَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِنْهُمْ إِنْ هَٰذَآ إِلَّا سِحْرٌۭ مُّبِينٌۭ

And when I revealed to the disciples: "Believe in Me and in My messenger";i 111

وَإِذْ أَوْحَيْتُ إِلَى ٱلْحَوَارِيِّـۧنَ أَنْ ءَامِنُوا۟ بِى وَبِرَسُولِى

they said: "We believe, and bear witness that we are true to God alone." 111

قَالُوٓا۟ ءَامَنَّا وَٱشْهَدْ بِأَنَّنَا مُسْلِمُونَ

remember when the disciples said: "O Issa, son of Maryam! can your Guardian send down to us a table from the sky?"i 112

إِذْ قَالَ ٱلْحَوَارِيُّونَ يَٰعِيسَى ٱبْنَ مَرْيَمَ هَلْ يَسْتَطِيعُ رَبُّكَ أَن يُنَزِّلَ عَلَيْنَا مَآئِدَةًۭ مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ

He said: "Guard yourselves toward God, if you are believers." 112

قَالَ ٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ إِن كُنتُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ

They said: "We want to eat from it, that our cores may find ease, that we may know you have told us the truth, and be witnesses to it." 113

قَالُوا۟ نُرِيدُ أَن نَّأْكُلَ مِنْهَا وَتَطْمَئِنَّ قُلُوبُنَا وَنَعْلَمَ أَن قَدْ صَدَقْتَنَا وَنَكُونَ عَلَيْهَا مِنَ ٱلشَّٰهِدِينَ

Issa, son of Maryam, said: "O God, our Guardian! send down to us a table from the sky, that it be for us a festival, for the first of us as for the last, and a sign from You;i 114

قَالَ عِيسَى ٱبْنُ مَرْيَمَ ٱللَّهُمَّ رَبَّنَآ أَنزِلْ عَلَيْنَا مَآئِدَةًۭ مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ تَكُونُ لَنَا عِيدًۭا لِّأَوَّلِنَا وَءَاخِرِنَا وَءَايَةًۭ مِّنكَ

and provide for us; 114

وَٱرْزُقْنَا

You are the best of providers." 114

وَأَنتَ خَيْرُ ٱلرَّٰزِقِينَ

God said: "I am sending it down to you; but whoever among you denies-disowns thereafter, I will punish him with a punishment with which I will punish none other among all beings." 115

قَالَ ٱللَّهُ إِنِّى مُنَزِّلُهَا عَلَيْكُمْ فَمَن يَكْفُرْ بَعْدُ مِنكُمْ فَإِنِّىٓ أُعَذِّبُهُۥ عَذَابًۭا لَّآ أُعَذِّبُهُۥٓ أَحَدًۭا مِّنَ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ

And remember when God will say: "O Issa, son of Maryam! was it you who said to the people: Take me, and my mother, as two deities besides God?"i 116

وَإِذْ قَالَ ٱللَّهُ يَٰعِيسَى ٱبْنَ مَرْيَمَ ءَأَنتَ قُلْتَ لِلنَّاسِ ٱتَّخِذُونِى وَأُمِّىَ إِلَٰهَيْنِ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ

He will say: "Glory be to You! it was not for me to say what is not my right. 116

قَالَ سُبْحَٰنَكَ مَا يَكُونُ لِىٓ أَنْ أَقُولَ مَا لَيْسَ لِى بِحَقٍّ

If I had said it, You would have known it. 116

إِن كُنتُ قُلْتُهُۥ فَقَدْ عَلِمْتَهُۥ

You know what is in my Self, and I do not know what is in Your Self. 116

تَعْلَمُ مَا فِى نَفْسِى وَلَآ أَعْلَمُ مَا فِى نَفْسِكَ

You are, You, the great Knower of what escapes the senses.i 116

إِنَّكَ أَنتَ عَلَّٰمُ ٱلْغُيُوبِ

I told them only what You ordered me: Obey God, my Guardian and your Guardian; 117

مَا قُلْتُ لَهُمْ إِلَّا مَآ أَمَرْتَنِى بِهِۦٓ أَنِ ٱعْبُدُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ رَبِّى وَرَبَّكُمْ

and I was a witness over them, as long as I remained among them; 117

وَكُنتُ عَلَيْهِمْ شَهِيدًۭا مَّا دُمْتُ فِيهِمْ

then, when You took me back to You, it was You who were the Observer over them. 117

فَلَمَّا تَوَفَّيْتَنِى كُنتَ أَنتَ ٱلرَّقِيبَ عَلَيْهِمْ

And You are, over all things, a witness. 117

وَأَنتَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍۢ شَهِيدٌ

If You punish them, they are Your obedient ones; 118

إِن تُعَذِّبْهُمْ فَإِنَّهُمْ عِبَادُكَ

and if You forgive them, You are, You, the All-Powerful, the Wise." 118

وَإِن تَغْفِرْ لَهُمْ فَإِنَّكَ أَنتَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْحَكِيمُ

God will say: "This is the day when truthfulness will benefit the truthful. 119

قَالَ ٱللَّهُ هَٰذَا يَوْمُ يَنفَعُ ٱلصَّٰدِقِينَ صِدْقُهُمْ

They have gardens beneath which rivers flow, wherein they will abide eternally, forever." 119

لَهُمْ جَنَّٰتٌۭ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَٰرُ خَٰلِدِينَ فِيهَآ أَبَدًۭا

God is satisfied with them, and they are satisfied with Him. 119

رَّضِىَ ٱللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ وَرَضُوا۟ عَنْهُ

That is the immense triumph. 119

ذَٰلِكَ ٱلْفَوْزُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ

To God belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, and of what is in them. 120

لِلَّهِ مُلْكُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا فِيهِنَّ

He has power over all things. 120

وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍۢ قَدِيرٌۢ
