Chapter 16: AN-NAHL (THE BEE) - Translation

 
   

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ

the command of allah will surely come; do not seek to hasten it. highly exalted is he above that they associate with him. (1)

 

أَتَى أَمْرُ اللّهِ فَلاَ تَسْتَعْجِلُوهُ سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ ﴿1﴾

he sends down the angels with the spirit (gabriel) by his command to those of his worshipers whom he chooses, (saying:) 'warn, there is no god except me, therefore fear me. ' (2)

 

يُنَزِّلُ الْمَلآئِكَةَ بِالْرُّوحِ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ عَلَى مَن يَشَاءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهِ أَنْ أَنذِرُواْ أَنَّهُ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنَاْ فَاتَّقُونِ ﴿2﴾

he created the heavens and the earth with truth. exalted is he above what they associate (with him)! (3)

 

خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ بِالْحَقِّ تَعَالَى عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ ﴿3﴾

he created mankind from a sperm drop, yet he is a clear adversary. (4)

 

خَلَقَ الإِنسَانَ مِن نُّطْفَةٍ فَإِذَا هُوَ خَصِيمٌ مُّبِينٌ ﴿4﴾

and the cattle he created for you. in them, you have warmth and other uses, and of them you eat. (5)

 

وَالأَنْعَامَ خَلَقَهَا لَكُمْ فِيهَا دِفْءٌ وَمَنَافِعُ وَمِنْهَا تَأْكُلُونَ ﴿5﴾

in them there is beauty for you when you bring them home and when you lead them to pasture. (6)

 

وَلَكُمْ فِيهَا جَمَالٌ حِينَ تُرِيحُونَ وَحِينَ تَسْرَحُونَ ﴿6﴾

they carry your loads to a land which you could not otherwise reach except by painful toil to oneself. your lord is the clement, the most merciful. (7)

 

وَتَحْمِلُ أَثْقَالَكُمْ إِلَى بَلَدٍ لَّمْ تَكُونُواْ بَالِغِيهِ إِلاَّ بِشِقِّ الأَنفُسِ إِنَّ رَبَّكُمْ لَرَؤُوفٌ رَّحِيمٌ ﴿7﴾

(he has created for you) horses, mules, and donkeys, which you ride and as an adornment; and he creates what you do not know. (8)

 

وَالْخَيْلَ وَالْبِغَالَ وَالْحَمِيرَ لِتَرْكَبُوهَا وَزِينَةً وَيَخْلُقُ مَا لاَ تَعْلَمُونَ ﴿8﴾

it is for allah to show the way. some swerve from it, but had he willed, he would have guided all of you. (9)

 

وَعَلَى اللّهِ قَصْدُ السَّبِيلِ وَمِنْهَا جَآئِرٌ وَلَوْ شَاء لَهَدَاكُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ ﴿9﴾

it is he who sends down water from heaven, which provides drink for you and brings forth trees on which your herds feed. (10)

 

هُوَ الَّذِي أَنزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مَاءً لَّكُم مِّنْهُ شَرَابٌ وَمِنْهُ شَجَرٌ فِيهِ تُسِيمُونَ ﴿10﴾

and thereby he brings forth crops and olives, palms and vines, and all the fruits. surely, in this there is a sign for a nation who think. (11)

 

يُنبِتُ لَكُم بِهِ الزَّرْعَ وَالزَّيْتُونَ وَالنَّخِيلَ وَالأَعْنَابَ وَمِن كُلِّ الثَّمَرَاتِ إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لآيَةً لِّقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ ﴿11﴾

he has subjected to you the night, the day, the sun and the moon. the stars are subjected by his command. surely, in that there is a sign for a nation who understands. (12)

 

وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمُ اللَّيْلَ وَالْنَّهَارَ وَالشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ وَالْنُّجُومُ مُسَخَّرَاتٌ بِأَمْرِهِ إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لَآيَاتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَعْقِلُونَ ﴿12﴾

and what he has multiplied for you in the earth is of various hues; surely, in that there is a sign for a nation who remember. (13)

 

وَمَا ذَرَأَ لَكُمْ فِي الأَرْضِ مُخْتَلِفًا أَلْوَانُهُ إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لآيَةً لِّقَوْمٍ يَذَّكَّرُونَ ﴿13﴾

it is he who has subjected the sea to you, so that you eat of its soft flesh and bring up from it ornaments which you wear. and you see the ships plowing their course through it in order that you seek his bounty and give thanks. (14)

 

وَهُوَ الَّذِي سَخَّرَ الْبَحْرَ لِتَأْكُلُواْ مِنْهُ لَحْمًا طَرِيًّا وَتَسْتَخْرِجُواْ مِنْهُ حِلْيَةً تَلْبَسُونَهَا وَتَرَى الْفُلْكَ مَوَاخِرَ فِيهِ وَلِتَبْتَغُواْ مِن فَضْلِهِ وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ ﴿14﴾

he set firm mountains upon the earth lest it should shake with you; and rivers, and roads, in order that you are guided. (15)

 

وَأَلْقَى فِي الأَرْضِ رَوَاسِيَ أَن تَمِيدَ بِكُمْ وَأَنْهَارًا وَسُبُلًا لَّعَلَّكُمْ تَهْتَدُونَ ﴿15﴾

and waymarks; and by the star they are guided. (16)

 

وَعَلامَاتٍ وَبِالنَّجْمِ هُمْ يَهْتَدُونَ ﴿16﴾

is he who creates as he who does not create? will you not remember? (17)

 

أَفَمَن يَخْلُقُ كَمَن لاَّ يَخْلُقُ أَفَلا تَذَكَّرُونَ ﴿17﴾

if you count the favors of allah, you could not number them. indeed, allah is forgiving and the most merciful. (18)

 

وَإِن تَعُدُّواْ نِعْمَةَ اللّهِ لاَ تُحْصُوهَا إِنَّ اللّهَ لَغَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ ﴿18﴾

allah has knowledge of all that you hide and all that you reveal. (19)

 

وَاللّهُ يَعْلَمُ مَا تُسِرُّونَ وَمَا تُعْلِنُونَ ﴿19﴾

but those whom you invoke, other than allah do not create anything they are themselves created. (20)

 

وَالَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ مِن دُونِ اللّهِ لاَ يَخْلُقُونَ شَيْئًا وَهُمْ يُخْلَقُونَ ﴿20﴾

they are dead, not living; and they do not know when they will be raised (to life). (21)

 

أَمْواتٌ غَيْرُ أَحْيَاء وَمَا يَشْعُرُونَ أَيَّانَ يُبْعَثُونَ ﴿21﴾

your god is one god. those who do not believe in the everlasting life their hearts disbelieve, and are puffed up with pride. (22)

 

إِلَهُكُمْ إِلَهٌ وَاحِدٌ فَالَّذِينَ لاَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِالآخِرَةِ قُلُوبُهُم مُّنكِرَةٌ وَهُم مُّسْتَكْبِرُونَ ﴿22﴾

allah knows without doubt what they hide and what they make known. he does not love the proud. (23)

 

لاَ جَرَمَ أَنَّ اللّهَ يَعْلَمُ مَا يُسِرُّونَ وَمَا يُعْلِنُونَ إِنَّهُ لاَ يُحِبُّ الْمُسْتَكْبِرِينَ ﴿23﴾

and if they are asked: 'what has your lord revealed? ' they say: 'tales of the ancients, fairytales! ' (24)

 

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُم مَّاذَا أَنزَلَ رَبُّكُمْ قَالُواْ أَسَاطِيرُ الأَوَّلِينَ ﴿24﴾

they shall carry their sins completely on the day of resurrection, and some of the sins of those who were led astray by them without knowledge. evil is that which they sin. (25)

 

لِيَحْمِلُواْ أَوْزَارَهُمْ كَامِلَةً يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَمِنْ أَوْزَارِ الَّذِينَ يُضِلُّونَهُم بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ أَلاَ سَاء مَا يَزِرُونَ ﴿25﴾

those who have gone before them also plotted. then, allah came upon their building from the foundations, and the roof fell down on them from above them. and the punishment overthem from where they did not know. (26)

 

قَدْ مَكَرَ الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ فَأَتَى اللّهُ بُنْيَانَهُم مِّنَ الْقَوَاعِدِ فَخَرَّ عَلَيْهِمُ السَّقْفُ مِن فَوْقِهِمْ وَأَتَاهُمُ الْعَذَابُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لاَ يَشْعُرُونَ ﴿26﴾

he will degrade them on the day of resurrection. he will say: 'where are my partners, for whose sake you opposed? ' and those to whom knowledge has been given will say: 'degradation today and evil are on the unbelievers, (27)

 

ثُمَّ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يُخْزِيهِمْ وَيَقُولُ أَيْنَ شُرَكَآئِيَ الَّذِينَ كُنتُمْ تُشَاقُّونَ فِيهِمْ قَالَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُواْ الْعِلْمَ إِنَّ الْخِزْيَ الْيَوْمَ وَالْسُّوءَ عَلَى الْكَافِرِينَ ﴿27﴾

whom the angels take while they were still harming themselves. ' then they will offer submission, saying: 'we have done no evil! ' no, surely allah knows what you have done. (28)

 

الَّذِينَ تَتَوَفَّاهُمُ الْمَلائِكَةُ ظَالِمِي أَنفُسِهِمْ فَأَلْقَوُاْ السَّلَمَ مَا كُنَّا نَعْمَلُ مِن سُوءٍ بَلَى إِنَّ اللّهَ عَلِيمٌ بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ ﴿28﴾

enter the gates of gehenna (hell) to be in it for ever. evil is the lodging of the proud. (29)

 

فَادْخُلُواْ أَبْوَابَ جَهَنَّمَ خَالِدِينَ فِيهَا فَلَبِئْسَ مَثْوَى الْمُتَكَبِّرِينَ ﴿29﴾

it is said to the cautious: 'what has your lord revealed? ' they will reply: 'good! ' for those who did good in this world is goodness; indeed the lodging in the everlasting life is better an excellent dwelling for the cautious. (30)

 

وَقِيلَ لِلَّذِينَ اتَّقَوْاْ مَاذَا أَنزَلَ رَبُّكُمْ قَالُواْ خَيْرًا لِّلَّذِينَ أَحْسَنُواْ فِي هَذِهِ الدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةٌ وَلَدَارُ الآخِرَةِ خَيْرٌ وَلَنِعْمَ دَارُ الْمُتَّقِينَ ﴿30﴾

they shall enter the gardens of eden, under which rivers flow, and there they shall have all they desire. so allah recompenses the cautious, (31)

 

جَنَّاتُ عَدْنٍ يَدْخُلُونَهَا تَجْرِي مِن تَحْتِهَا الأَنْهَارُ لَهُمْ فِيهَا مَا يَشَآؤُونَ كَذَلِكَ يَجْزِي اللّهُ الْمُتَّقِينَ ﴿31﴾

whom the angels take while they are goodly, saying: 'peace be on you. enter paradise for what you were doing. ' (32)

 

الَّذِينَ تَتَوَفَّاهُمُ الْمَلآئِكَةُ طَيِّبِينَ يَقُولُونَ سَلامٌ عَلَيْكُمُ ادْخُلُواْ الْجَنَّةَ بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ ﴿32﴾

are they looking for the angels to come down or the order of your lord to come? as such did those who have gone before them. allah did not wrong them, but they wronged themselves, (33)

 

هَلْ يَنظُرُونَ إِلاَّ أَن تَأْتِيَهُمُ الْمَلائِكَةُ أَوْ يَأْتِيَ أَمْرُ رَبِّكَ كَذَلِكَ فَعَلَ الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ وَمَا ظَلَمَهُمُ اللّهُ وَلكِن كَانُواْ أَنفُسَهُمْ يَظْلِمُونَ ﴿33﴾

so the evil things which they did coiled around them, and they were encompassed by that they mocked. (34)

 

فَأَصَابَهُمْ سَيِّئَاتُ مَا عَمِلُواْ وَحَاقَ بِهِم مَّا كَانُواْ بِهِ يَسْتَهْزِئُونَ ﴿34﴾

the idolaters say: 'had allah willed, neither we nor our fathers would have worshipped anything other than him, nor would we have forbidden anything without him', as such did those before them. yet what should messengers do but give a clear deliverance? (35)

 

وَقَالَ الَّذِينَ أَشْرَكُواْ لَوْ شَاء اللّهُ مَا عَبَدْنَا مِن دُونِهِ مِن شَيْءٍ نَّحْنُ وَلا آبَاؤُنَا وَلاَ حَرَّمْنَا مِن دُونِهِ مِن شَيْءٍ كَذَلِكَ فَعَلَ الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ فَهَلْ عَلَى الرُّسُلِ إِلاَّ الْبَلاغُ الْمُبِينُ ﴿35﴾

we sent a messenger to every nation, saying: 'worship allah and avoid the idols. ' amongst them were some whom allah guided, and some justly disposed to error. travel in the land and see what was the end of those who belied (the revelation and the prophets)! (36)

 

وَلَقَدْ بَعَثْنَا فِي كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ رَّسُولًا أَنِ اعْبُدُواْ اللّهَ وَاجْتَنِبُواْ الطَّاغُوتَ فَمِنْهُم مَّنْ هَدَى اللّهُ وَمِنْهُم مَّنْ حَقَّتْ عَلَيْهِ الضَّلالَةُ فَسِيرُواْ فِي الأَرْضِ فَانظُرُواْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الْمُكَذِّبِينَ ﴿36﴾

though you are ever so eager to guide them, allah will not guide those who mislead (others). there shall be none to help them. (37)

 

إِن تَحْرِصْ عَلَى هُدَاهُمْ فَإِنَّ اللّهَ لاَ يَهْدِي مَن يُضِلُّ وَمَا لَهُم مِّن نَّاصِرِينَ ﴿37﴾

they solemnly swear by allah that allah will never raise the dead to life. no, surely the promise of allah is binding upon him, though most people do not know. (38)

 

وَأَقْسَمُواْ بِاللّهِ جَهْدَ أَيْمَانِهِمْ لاَ يَبْعَثُ اللّهُ مَن يَمُوتُ بَلَى وَعْدًا عَلَيْهِ حَقًّا وَلكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لاَ يَعْلَمُونَ ﴿38﴾

this is in order that he may make clear to them that which they differed upon, and in order that those who disbelieve might know that they were indeed lying. (39)

 

لِيُبَيِّنَ لَهُمُ الَّذِي يَخْتَلِفُونَ فِيهِ وَلِيَعْلَمَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُواْ كَاذِبِينَ ﴿39﴾

when we decree a thing, we only say: 'be, ' and it is. (40)

 

إِنَّمَا قَوْلُنَا لِشَيْءٍ إِذَا أَرَدْنَاهُ أَن نَّقُولَ لَهُ كُن فَيَكُونُ ﴿40﴾

and those who after they have been wronged emigrated for the cause of allah, we will lodge them with a good (life) in this world, but greater still is the wage of the everlasting life, if they but knew; (41)

 

وَالَّذِينَ هَاجَرُواْ فِي اللّهِ مِن بَعْدِ مَا ظُلِمُواْ لَنُبَوِّئَنَّهُمْ فِي الدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةً وَلَأَجْرُ الآخِرَةِ أَكْبَرُ لَوْ كَانُواْ يَعْلَمُونَ ﴿41﴾

such are those who are patient, and put their trust in their lord. (42)

 

الَّذِينَ صَبَرُواْ وَعَلَى رَبِّهِمْ يَتَوَكَّلُونَ ﴿42﴾

we never sent but men before you to whom we revealed, ask the people of the remembrance, if you do not know. (43)

 

وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَا مِن قَبْلِكَ إِلاَّ رِجَالًا نُّوحِي إِلَيْهِمْ فَاسْأَلُواْ أَهْلَ الذِّكْرِ إِن كُنتُمْ لاَ تَعْلَمُونَ ﴿43﴾

(we sent them) with clear signs and the psalms. and we sent down to you the remembrance so that you can make clear to people what has been sent down to them, in order that they reflect. (44)

 

بِالْبَيِّنَاتِ وَالزُّبُرِ وَأَنزَلْنَا إِلَيْكَ الذِّكْرَ لِتُبَيِّنَ لِلنَّاسِ مَا نُزِّلَ إِلَيْهِمْ وَلَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ ﴿44﴾

do those who do evil feel secure that allah will not make the earth to swallow them, or that the punishment will not fall upon them from where they do not know? (45)

 

أَفَأَمِنَ الَّذِينَ مَكَرُواْ السَّيِّئَاتِ أَن يَخْسِفَ اللّهُ بِهِمُ الأَرْضَ أَوْ يَأْتِيَهُمُ الْعَذَابُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لاَ يَشْعُرُونَ ﴿45﴾

or, that he will not seize them in their going to and fro, and they will not be able to frustrate him? (46)

 

أَوْ يَأْخُذَهُمْ فِي تَقَلُّبِهِمْ فَمَا هُم بِمُعْجِزِينَ ﴿46﴾

or, that he will not seize them, a little at a time and destroy them? indeed, your lord is clement, the most merciful. (47)

 

أَوْ يَأْخُذَهُمْ عَلَى تَخَوُّفٍ فَإِنَّ رَبَّكُمْ لَرؤُوفٌ رَّحِيمٌ ﴿47﴾

do they not see how every thing allah created casts its shadow right and left, prostrating itself before allah in all humility? (48)

 

أَوَ لَمْ يَرَوْاْ إِلَى مَا خَلَقَ اللّهُ مِن شَيْءٍ يَتَفَيَّأُ ظِلاَلُهُ عَنِ الْيَمِينِ وَالْشَّمَآئِلِ سُجَّدًا لِلّهِ وَهُمْ دَاخِرُونَ ﴿48﴾

everything in the heavens and every crawling creature on earth, and the angels prostrate to allah and they are not proud; (49)

 

وَلِلّهِ يَسْجُدُ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الأَرْضِ مِن دَآبَّةٍ وَالْمَلآئِكَةُ وَهُمْ لاَ يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ ﴿49﴾

they fear their lord from above them and do as they are commanded. (50)

 

يَخَافُونَ رَبَّهُم مِّن فَوْقِهِمْ وَيَفْعَلُونَ مَا يُؤْمَرُونَ ﴿50﴾

allah says: 'do not take to yourself two gods. he is only one god; so have awe of me. ' (51)

 

وَقَالَ اللّهُ لاَ تَتَّخِذُواْ إِلهَيْنِ اثْنَيْنِ إِنَّمَا هُوَ إِلهٌ وَاحِدٌ فَإيَّايَ فَارْهَبُونِ ﴿51﴾

to him belongs all that is in the heavens and the earth. his is the religion for ever. would you then fear any but allah? (52)

 

وَلَهُ مَا فِي الْسَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ وَلَهُ الدِّينُ وَاصِبًا أَفَغَيْرَ اللّهِ تَتَّقُونَ ﴿52﴾

whatever favor you have is from allah. whenever you are afflicted you groan to him. (53)

 

وَمَا بِكُم مِّن نِّعْمَةٍ فَمِنَ اللّهِ ثُمَّ إِذَا مَسَّكُمُ الضُّرُّ فَإِلَيْهِ تَجْأَرُونَ ﴿53﴾

when he removes your affliction then some of you set up associates to their lord (54)

 

ثُمَّ إِذَا كَشَفَ الضُّرَّ عَنكُمْ إِذَا فَرِيقٌ مِّنكُم بِرَبِّهِمْ يُشْرِكُونَ ﴿54﴾

that they may show ingratitude for what we gave them. so, take your pleasure, you shall soon know. (55)

 

لِيَكْفُرُواْ بِمَا آتَيْنَاهُمْ فَتَمَتَّعُواْ فَسَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ ﴿55﴾

they set aside a share of that which we have provided them for what they did not know. by allah, you shall be questioned about your forgeries! (56)

 

وَيَجْعَلُونَ لِمَا لاَ يَعْلَمُونَ نَصِيبًا مِّمَّا رَزَقْنَاهُمْ تَاللّهِ لَتُسْأَلُنَّ عَمَّا كُنتُمْ تَفْتَرُونَ ﴿56﴾

they ascribe daughters to allah exaltations to him! but they themselves would have what they desire! (57)

 

وَيَجْعَلُونَ لِلّهِ الْبَنَاتِ سُبْحَانَهُ وَلَهُم مَّا يَشْتَهُونَ ﴿57﴾

when good news of the birth of a female is given to any of them, his face grows dark and inwardly he chokes. (58)

 

وَإِذَا بُشِّرَ أَحَدُهُمْ بِالأُنثَى ظَلَّ وَجْهُهُ مُسْوَدًّا وَهُوَ كَظِيمٌ ﴿58﴾

because of the evil of the good news he hides himself from people, (pondering) whether he will keep her and be humiliated, or trample her into the dust. evil is their judgement! (59)

 

يَتَوَارَى مِنَ الْقَوْمِ مِن سُوءِ مَا بُشِّرَ بِهِ أَيُمْسِكُهُ عَلَى هُونٍ أَمْ يَدُسُّهُ فِي التُّرَابِ أَلاَ سَاء مَا يَحْكُمُونَ ﴿59﴾

those who do not believe in the everlasting life, theirs is the evil likeness; and for allah is the highest likeness. he is the mighty, the wise. (60)

 

لِلَّذِينَ لاَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِالآخِرَةِ مَثَلُ السَّوْءِ وَلِلّهِ الْمَثَلُ الأَعْلَىَ وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ ﴿60﴾

if allah punished people for their sins, he would not leave one creature that crawls on the earth. he reprieves them to an appointed term; when their term is come, they shall neither delay it by a single hour nor can they hasten it. (61)

 

وَلَوْ يُؤَاخِذُ اللّهُ النَّاسَ بِظُلْمِهِم مَّا تَرَكَ عَلَيْهَا مِن دَآبَّةٍ وَلَكِن يُؤَخِّرُهُمْ إلَى أَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى فَإِذَا جَاء أَجَلُهُمْ لاَ يَسْتَأْخِرُونَ سَاعَةً وَلاَ يَسْتَقْدِمُونَ ﴿61﴾

they ascribe to allah what they themselves dislike. their tongues utter falsehoods (when they say) the finest of wages shall be theirs. without doubt, the fire shall be theirs and they will be hastened to it. (62)

 

وَيَجْعَلُونَ لِلّهِ مَا يَكْرَهُونَ وَتَصِفُ أَلْسِنَتُهُمُ الْكَذِبَ أَنَّ لَهُمُ الْحُسْنَى لاَ جَرَمَ أَنَّ لَهُمُ الْنَّارَ وَأَنَّهُم مُّفْرَطُونَ ﴿62﴾

indeed, by allah, we have sent messengers before you to other nations. but satan made their deeds seem fair to them so that today he is their guardian, and a painful punishment awaits them. (63)

 

تَاللّهِ لَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا إِلَى أُمَمٍ مِّن قَبْلِكَ فَزَيَّنَ لَهُمُ الشَّيْطَانُ أَعْمَالَهُمْ فَهُوَ وَلِيُّهُمُ الْيَوْمَ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ ﴿63﴾

we have not revealed to you (prophet muhammad) the book except that you may clarify for them that upon which they differ, and as guidance and mercy to a nation who believe. (64)

 

وَمَا أَنزَلْنَا عَلَيْكَ الْكِتَابَ إِلاَّ لِتُبَيِّنَ لَهُمُ الَّذِي اخْتَلَفُواْ فِيهِ وَهُدًى وَرَحْمَةً لِّقَوْمٍ يُؤْمِنُونَ ﴿64﴾

allah sends down water from the sky with which he revives the earth after its death. surely, in this there is a sign for people who listen. (65)

 

وَاللّهُ أَنزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مَاءً فَأَحْيَا بِهِ الأَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَا إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لآيَةً لِّقَوْمٍ يَسْمَعُونَ ﴿65﴾

indeed, in the cattle there is a lesson for you. we give you to drink of that which is in their bellies, between the filth (bowels) and blood, pure milk, which is sweet to those who drink. (66)

 

وَإِنَّ لَكُمْ فِي الأَنْعَامِ لَعِبْرَةً نُّسْقِيكُم مِّمَّا فِي بُطُونِهِ مِن بَيْنِ فَرْثٍ وَدَمٍ لَّبَنًا خَالِصًا سَآئِغًا لِلشَّارِبِينَ ﴿66﴾

and the fruits of the palm and of the vine, from which you derive intoxicants and wholesome provisions. surely, in this there is a sign for nation who understand. (67)

 

وَمِن ثَمَرَاتِ النَّخِيلِ وَالأَعْنَابِ تَتَّخِذُونَ مِنْهُ سَكَرًا وَرِزْقًا حَسَنًا إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لآيَةً لِّقَوْمٍ يَعْقِلُونَ ﴿67﴾

your lord revealed to the bee: 'build your homes in the mountains, in the trees, and in what they are building. (68)

 

وَأَوْحَى رَبُّكَ إِلَى النَّحْلِ أَنِ اتَّخِذِي مِنَ الْجِبَالِ بُيُوتًا وَمِنَ الشَّجَرِ وَمِمَّا يَعْرِشُونَ ﴿68﴾

eat every kind of fruit, and follow the easy ways of your lord. ' from its belly comes forth a drink (honey) of many hues in which there is healing for people. surely, in this there is a sign for a nation who reflect. (69)

 

ثُمَّ كُلِي مِن كُلِّ الثَّمَرَاتِ فَاسْلُكِي سُبُلَ رَبِّكِ ذُلُلًا يَخْرُجُ مِن بُطُونِهَا شَرَابٌ مُّخْتَلِفٌ أَلْوَانُهُ فِيهِ شِفَاء لِلنَّاسِ إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لآيَةً لِّقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ ﴿69﴾

allah created you, and causes you to die. there are some of you who, after knowing something, will be kept back to the vilest state of life, knowing nothing. allah is the knowing, powerful. (70)

 

وَاللّهُ خَلَقَكُمْ ثُمَّ يَتَوَفَّاكُمْ وَمِنكُم مَّن يُرَدُّ إِلَى أَرْذَلِ الْعُمُرِ لِكَيْ لاَ يَعْلَمَ بَعْدَ عِلْمٍ شَيْئًا إِنَّ اللّهَ عَلِيمٌ قَدِيرٌ ﴿70﴾

in your provisions allah has preferred some of you above others. but, those who have been preferred do not give their provisions to those whom their right hand possess so that they might be equal therein. what, do they vainly disbelieve the favor of allah? (71)

 

وَاللّهُ فَضَّلَ بَعْضَكُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ فِي الْرِّزْقِ فَمَا الَّذِينَ فُضِّلُواْ بِرَآدِّي رِزْقِهِمْ عَلَى مَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَانُهُمْ فَهُمْ فِيهِ سَوَاء أَفَبِنِعْمَةِ اللّهِ يَجْحَدُونَ ﴿71﴾

allah has given you wives from among yourselves, and has given you and your wives, sons and grandsons and he has provided you with good things. what, do they believe in vanity; do they disbelieve in the favor of allah? (72)

 

وَاللّهُ جَعَلَ لَكُم مِّنْ أَنفُسِكُمْ أَزْوَاجًا وَجَعَلَ لَكُم مِّنْ أَزْوَاجِكُم بَنِينَ وَحَفَدَةً وَرَزَقَكُم مِّنَ الطَّيِّبَاتِ أَفَبِالْبَاطِلِ يُؤْمِنُونَ وَبِنِعْمَتِ اللّهِ هُمْ يَكْفُرُونَ ﴿72﴾

do they worship, other than allah, that which has no power to provide them with anything either from the heavens or earth, and can do nothing! (73)

 

وَيَعْبُدُونَ مِن دُونِ اللّهِ مَا لاَ يَمْلِكُ لَهُمْ رِزْقًا مِّنَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ شَيْئًا وَلاَ يَسْتَطِيعُونَ ﴿73﴾

therefore, do not strike parables for allah; allah knows, but you do not! (74)

 

فَلاَ تَضْرِبُواْ لِلّهِ الأَمْثَالَ إِنَّ اللّهَ يَعْلَمُ وَأَنتُمْ لاَ تَعْلَمُونَ ﴿74﴾

allah strikes a parable. a servant owned by his master, having no power over anything, and one to whom we have given from us a fine provision who spends it secretly and openly, are they equal? praise be to allah! no, most of them do not know! (75)

 

ضَرَبَ اللّهُ مَثَلًا عَبْدًا مَّمْلُوكًا لاَّ يَقْدِرُ عَلَى شَيْءٍ وَمَن رَّزَقْنَاهُ مِنَّا رِزْقًا حَسَنًا فَهُوَ يُنفِقُ مِنْهُ سِرًّا وَجَهْرًا هَلْ يَسْتَوُونَ الْحَمْدُ لِلّهِ بَلْ أَكْثَرُهُمْ لاَ يَعْلَمُونَ ﴿75﴾

and allah strikes a parable. two men, one is dumb and powerless, a burden to his master wherever he sends him he returns with no good. is he equal with one who orders justice and follows the straight path? (76)

 

وَضَرَبَ اللّهُ مَثَلًا رَّجُلَيْنِ أَحَدُهُمَا أَبْكَمُ لاَ يَقْدِرُ عَلَىَ شَيْءٍ وَهُوَ كَلٌّ عَلَى مَوْلاهُ أَيْنَمَا يُوَجِّههُّ لاَ يَأْتِ بِخَيْرٍ هَلْ يَسْتَوِي هُوَ وَمَن يَأْمُرُ بِالْعَدْلِ وَهُوَ عَلَى صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ ﴿76﴾

to allah belongs the unseen of the heavens and the earth. the matter of the final hour shall be like the twinkling of an eye, or even less. allah has power over all things. (77)

 

وَلِلّهِ غَيْبُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ وَمَا أَمْرُ السَّاعَةِ إِلاَّ كَلَمْحِ الْبَصَرِ أَوْ هُوَ أَقْرَبُ إِنَّ اللّهَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ ﴿77﴾

allah brought you out of your mothers' wombs, and gave you hearing, sight and hearts, in order that you be thankful. (78)

 

وَاللّهُ أَخْرَجَكُم مِّن بُطُونِ أُمَّهَاتِكُمْ لاَ تَعْلَمُونَ شَيْئًا وَجَعَلَ لَكُمُ الْسَّمْعَ وَالأَبْصَارَ وَالأَفْئِدَةَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ ﴿78﴾

have they not seen the birds that are subjected in the air of the heaven? nothing holds them except allah. surely, in this are signs for those who believe. (79)

 

أَلَمْ يَرَوْاْ إِلَى الطَّيْرِ مُسَخَّرَاتٍ فِي جَوِّ السَّمَاء مَا يُمْسِكُهُنَّ إِلاَّ اللّهُ إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لَآيَاتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يُؤْمِنُونَ ﴿79﴾

and it is allah who has given you houses in which to rest, and from the hides of cattle homes so they are light for you on the day you travel and on the day of settling; while from their wool, fur, and hair (he has given you) furnishing and enjoyment for a while. (80)

 

وَاللّهُ جَعَلَ لَكُم مِّن بُيُوتِكُمْ سَكَنًا وَجَعَلَ لَكُم مِّن جُلُودِ الأَنْعَامِ بُيُوتًا تَسْتَخِفُّونَهَا يَوْمَ ظَعْنِكُمْ وَيَوْمَ إِقَامَتِكُمْ وَمِنْ أَصْوَافِهَا وَأَوْبَارِهَا وَأَشْعَارِهَا أَثَاثًا وَمَتَاعًا إِلَى حِينٍ ﴿80﴾

from the things he created, allah has given you a covering shade, and he has made for you refuges in the mountains. he has given you garments to protect you from the heat, and garments to protect you from your own violence. as such it is that he perfects his favors upon you, in order that you submit. (81)

 

وَاللّهُ جَعَلَ لَكُم مِّمَّا خَلَقَ ظِلاَلًا وَجَعَلَ لَكُم مِّنَ الْجِبَالِ أَكْنَانًا وَجَعَلَ لَكُمْ سَرَابِيلَ تَقِيكُمُ الْحَرَّ وَسَرَابِيلَ تَقِيكُم بَأْسَكُمْ كَذَلِكَ يُتِمُّ نِعْمَتَهُ عَلَيْكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُسْلِمُونَ ﴿81﴾

but, if they turn away, your mission is only to give plain warning. (82)

 

فَإِن تَوَلَّوْاْ فَإِنَّمَا عَلَيْكَ الْبَلاَغُ الْمُبِينُ ﴿82﴾

they recognize the favors of allah, then they disbelieve them; most of them are unbelievers. (83)

 

يَعْرِفُونَ نِعْمَتَ اللّهِ ثُمَّ يُنكِرُونَهَا وَأَكْثَرُهُمُ الْكَافِرُونَ ﴿83﴾

on the day we shall raise up from every nation a witness, then permission will not be given to the unbelievers, nor shall they be allowed to make restitution. (84)

 

وَيَوْمَ نَبْعَثُ مِن كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ شَهِيدًا ثُمَّ لاَ يُؤْذَنُ لِلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ وَلاَ هُمْ يُسْتَعْتَبُونَ ﴿84﴾

and when the harmdoers see their punishment, it shall never be lightened, nor shall they ever be respited. (85)

 

وَإِذَا رَأى الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ الْعَذَابَ فَلاَ يُخَفَّفُ عَنْهُمْ وَلاَ هُمْ يُنظَرُونَ ﴿85﴾

and when the idolaters see their associates they will say: 'our lord, these are our associates on whom we called other than you. ' but they will throw back at them saying: 'surely, you are truly liars. ' (86)

 

وَإِذَا رَأى الَّذِينَ أَشْرَكُواْ شُرَكَاءهُمْ قَالُواْ رَبَّنَا هَؤُلاء شُرَكَآؤُنَا الَّذِينَ كُنَّا نَدْعُوْ مِن دُونِكَ فَألْقَوْا إِلَيْهِمُ الْقَوْلَ إِنَّكُمْ لَكَاذِبُونَ ﴿86﴾

on that day they shall offer to submit to allah, and what they forged will forsake them. (87)

 

وَأَلْقَوْاْ إِلَى اللّهِ يَوْمَئِذٍ السَّلَمَ وَضَلَّ عَنْهُم مَّا كَانُواْ يَفْتَرُونَ ﴿87﴾

those who disbelieve and bar others from the path of allah, we shall add punishment upon their punishment because they were corrupting. (88)

 

الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ وَصَدُّواْ عَن سَبِيلِ اللّهِ زِدْنَاهُمْ عَذَابًا فَوْقَ الْعَذَابِ بِمَا كَانُواْ يُفْسِدُونَ ﴿88﴾

and on that day we shall raise up from every nation a witness from their own against them, and we shall bring you (prophet muhammad) as a witness against those. and we have sent down to you the book making everything clear, as a guidance, and mercy, and glad tidings to those who submit. (89)

 

وَيَوْمَ نَبْعَثُ فِي كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ شَهِيدًا عَلَيْهِم مِّنْ أَنفُسِهِمْ وَجِئْنَا بِكَ شَهِيدًا عَلَى هَؤُلاء وَنَزَّلْنَا عَلَيْكَ الْكِتَابَ تِبْيَانًا لِّكُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَهُدًى وَرَحْمَةً وَبُشْرَى لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ ﴿89﴾

allah orders justice, and good deeds, and giving to one's kindred. he forbids indecency, dishonor and insolence. he admonishes you in order that you take heed. (90)

 

إِنَّ اللّهَ يَأْمُرُ بِالْعَدْلِ وَالإِحْسَانِ وَإِيتَاء ذِي الْقُرْبَى وَيَنْهَى عَنِ الْفَحْشَاء وَالْمُنكَرِ وَالْبَغْيِ يَعِظُكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ ﴿90﴾

fulfill the covenant of allah, when you make a covenant and do not break your oaths after they have been confirmed (by swearing in his name) for you make allah your surety. allah has knowledge of what you do. (91)

 

وَأَوْفُواْ بِعَهْدِ اللّهِ إِذَا عَاهَدتُّمْ وَلاَ تَنقُضُواْ الأَيْمَانَ بَعْدَ تَوْكِيدِهَا وَقَدْ جَعَلْتُمُ اللّهَ عَلَيْكُمْ كَفِيلًا إِنَّ اللّهَ يَعْلَمُ مَا تَفْعَلُونَ ﴿91﴾

do not be like the woman who breaks her thread, after it is firmly spun into fibers, by taking your oaths as mere mutual deceit, one nation being more numerous than the other. allah tries you with it. on the day of resurrection, he will clarify to you everything on which you were at variance. (92)

 

وَلاَ تَكُونُواْ كَالَّتِي نَقَضَتْ غَزْلَهَا مِن بَعْدِ قُوَّةٍ أَنكَاثًا تَتَّخِذُونَ أَيْمَانَكُمْ دَخَلًا بَيْنَكُمْ أَن تَكُونَ أُمَّةٌ هِيَ أَرْبَى مِنْ أُمَّةٍ إِنَّمَا يَبْلُوكُمُ اللّهُ بِهِ وَلَيُبَيِّنَنَّ لَكُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مَا كُنتُمْ فِيهِ تَخْتَلِفُونَ ﴿92﴾

had allah willed, he would have made you one nation. but he leads astray whomsoever he will and gives guidance to whomsoever he will. you shall be questioned about what you did. (93)

 

وَلَوْ شَاء اللّهُ لَجَعَلَكُمْ أُمَّةً وَاحِدَةً وَلكِن يُضِلُّ مَن يَشَاءُ وَيَهْدِي مَن يَشَاءُ وَلَتُسْأَلُنَّ عَمَّا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ ﴿93﴾

do not take oaths to deceive each other, lest your foot should slip after its firmness, lest you should taste evil, for you barred others from the path of allah, and lest a mighty punishment awaits you. (94)

 

وَلاَ تَتَّخِذُواْ أَيْمَانَكُمْ دَخَلًا بَيْنَكُمْ فَتَزِلَّ قَدَمٌ بَعْدَ ثُبُوتِهَا وَتَذُوقُواْ الْسُّوءَ بِمَا صَدَدتُّمْ عَن سَبِيلِ اللّهِ وَلَكُمْ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمٌ ﴿94﴾

do not sell the covenant of allah for a trifling price. what is with allah is better for you if you but knew. (95)

 

وَلاَ تَشْتَرُواْ بِعَهْدِ اللّهِ ثَمَنًا قَلِيلًا إِنَّمَا عِندَ اللّهِ هُوَ خَيْرٌ لَّكُمْ إِن كُنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ ﴿95﴾

that which you have is transitory, but that which is with allah endures. we shall reward the patient according to the best of their deeds, (96)

 

مَا عِندَكُمْ يَنفَدُ وَمَا عِندَ اللّهِ بَاقٍ وَلَنَجْزِيَنَّ الَّذِينَ صَبَرُواْ أَجْرَهُم بِأَحْسَنِ مَا كَانُواْ يَعْمَلُونَ ﴿96﴾

for whosoever does a righteous deed, be they believing men or women, we shall recompense them with their wage according to the best of their deeds. (97)

 

مَنْ عَمِلَ صَالِحًا مِّن ذَكَرٍ أَوْ أُنثَى وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ فَلَنُحْيِيَنَّهُ حَيَاةً طَيِّبَةً وَلَنَجْزِيَنَّهُمْ أَجْرَهُم بِأَحْسَنِ مَا كَانُواْ يَعْمَلُونَ ﴿97﴾

when you recite the koran, seek refuge in allah from the stoned satan: (98)

 

فَإِذَا قَرَأْتَ الْقُرْآنَ فَاسْتَعِذْ بِاللّهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ ﴿98﴾

he has no authority over the believers who put their trust in their lord. (99)

 

إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ لَهُ سُلْطَانٌ عَلَى الَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ وَعَلَى رَبِّهِمْ يَتَوَكَّلُونَ ﴿99﴾

he has authority over those who are guided by him, and those who ascribe associates to him (allah). (100)

 

إِنَّمَا سُلْطَانُهُ عَلَى الَّذِينَ يَتَوَلَّوْنَهُ وَالَّذِينَ هُم بِهِ مُشْرِكُونَ ﴿100﴾

when we exchange a verse for another and allah knows best what he is sending down they say: 'you are but a forger. ' no, most of them do not know. (101)

 

وَإِذَا بَدَّلْنَا آيَةً مَّكَانَ آيَةٍ وَاللّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُنَزِّلُ قَالُواْ إِنَّمَا أَنتَ مُفْتَرٍ بَلْ أَكْثَرُهُمْ لاَ يَعْلَمُونَ ﴿101﴾

say: 'the holy spirit (gabriel) brought it down from your lord in truth to confirm those who believe, and to give guidance and glad tidings to those who surrender. ' (102)

 

قُلْ نَزَّلَهُ رُوحُ الْقُدُسِ مِن رَّبِّكَ بِالْحَقِّ لِيُثَبِّتَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ وَهُدًى وَبُشْرَى لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ ﴿102﴾

we know very well that they say: 'a mortal teaches him. ' the tongue of him at whom they hint is a nonarab; and this is a clear arabic tongue. (103)

 

وَلَقَدْ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُمْ يَقُولُونَ إِنَّمَا يُعَلِّمُهُ بَشَرٌ لِّسَانُ الَّذِي يُلْحِدُونَ إِلَيْهِ أَعْجَمِيٌّ وَهَذَا لِسَانٌ عَرَبِيٌّ مُّبِينٌ ﴿103﴾

those who disbelieve in the verses of allah, allah does not guide them for them is a painful punishment. (104)

 

إِنَّ الَّذِينَ لاَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِآيَاتِ اللّهِ لاَ يَهْدِيهِمُ اللّهُ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ ﴿104﴾

none forge lies except those who disbelieve the verses of allah those, they are the liars. (105)

 

إِنَّمَا يَفْتَرِي الْكَذِبَ الَّذِينَ لاَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِآيَاتِ اللّهِ وَأُوْلئِكَ هُمُ الْكَاذِبُونَ ﴿105﴾

whosoever disbelieves in allah after believing except he who is forced while his heart remains in his belief but he who opens his chest for disbelief, shall receive the anger of allah and for such awaits a mighty punishment. (106)

 

مَن كَفَرَ بِاللّهِ مِن بَعْدِ إيمَانِهِ إِلاَّ مَنْ أُكْرِهَ وَقَلْبُهُ مُطْمَئِنٌّ بِالإِيمَانِ وَلَكِن مَّن شَرَحَ بِالْكُفْرِ صَدْرًا فَعَلَيْهِمْ غَضَبٌ مِّنَ اللّهِ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمٌ ﴿106﴾

that is because they loved this present life above the everlasting life. allah does not guide the unbelievers. (107)

 

ذَلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمُ اسْتَحَبُّواْ الْحَيَاةَ الْدُّنْيَا عَلَى الآخِرَةِ وَأَنَّ اللّهَ لاَ يَهْدِي الْقَوْمَ الْكَافِرِينَ ﴿107﴾

they are those whose hearts, hearing and sight are sealed by allah; they are the heedless. (108)

 

أُولَئِكَ الَّذِينَ طَبَعَ اللّهُ عَلَى قُلُوبِهِمْ وَسَمْعِهِمْ وَأَبْصَارِهِمْ وَأُولَئِكَ هُمُ الْغَافِلُونَ ﴿108﴾

in the everlasting life, they shall assuredly be the losers. (109)

 

لاَ جَرَمَ أَنَّهُمْ فِي الآخِرَةِ هُمُ الْخَاسِرونَ ﴿109﴾

then indeed your lord ? to those who emigrated, after they were persecuted, and then strove and were patient, surely, your lord is thereafter?forgiving, the most merciful. (110)

 

ثُمَّ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ لِلَّذِينَ هَاجَرُواْ مِن بَعْدِ مَا فُتِنُواْ ثُمَّ جَاهَدُواْ وَصَبَرُواْ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ مِن بَعْدِهَا لَغَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ ﴿110﴾

on the day when every soul will come pleading for itself and when every soul will be recompensed in full for what it did they shall not be wronged. (111)

 

يَوْمَ تَأْتِي كُلُّ نَفْسٍ تُجَادِلُ عَن نَّفْسِهَا وَتُوَفَّى كُلُّ نَفْسٍ مَّا عَمِلَتْ وَهُمْ لاَ يُظْلَمُونَ ﴿111﴾

allah strikes a parable of the village which was safe and peaceful. its provisions came in abundance from everywhere; but it was thankless for the favors of allah. therefore, for what they were doing, allah let it taste the garment of hunger and fear. (112)

 

وَضَرَبَ اللّهُ مَثَلًا قَرْيَةً كَانَتْ آمِنَةً مُّطْمَئِنَّةً يَأْتِيهَا رِزْقُهَا رَغَدًا مِّن كُلِّ مَكَانٍ فَكَفَرَتْ بِأَنْعُمِ اللّهِ فَأَذَاقَهَا اللّهُ لِبَاسَ الْجُوعِ وَالْخَوْفِ بِمَا كَانُواْ يَصْنَعُونَ ﴿112﴾

a messenger from their own was sent to them, but they belied him. so while they were harmdoers they were seized by the punishment. (113)

 

وَلَقَدْ جَاءهُمْ رَسُولٌ مِّنْهُمْ فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَأَخَذَهُمُ الْعَذَابُ وَهُمْ ظَالِمُونَ ﴿113﴾

eat of the lawful and good things with which allah has provided you and be thankful for the favors of allah if it is he you worship. (114)

 

فَكُلُواْ مِمَّا رَزَقَكُمُ اللّهُ حَلالًا طَيِّبًا وَاشْكُرُواْ نِعْمَتَ اللّهِ إِن كُنتُمْ إِيَّاهُ تَعْبُدُونَ ﴿114﴾

these things alone he has forbidden to you: what is already dead, blood, the flesh of swine, what has been offeredup to other than allah. but to whoever is forced to eat any of these, neither desiring nor wanting to transgress, allah is forgiving, merciful. (115)

 

إِنَّمَا حَرَّمَ عَلَيْكُمُ الْمَيْتَةَ وَالْدَّمَ وَلَحْمَ الْخَنزِيرِ وَمَآ أُهِلَّ لِغَيْرِ اللّهِ بِهِ فَمَنِ اضْطُرَّ غَيْرَ بَاغٍ وَلاَ عَادٍ فَإِنَّ اللّهَ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ ﴿115﴾

and do not say what your tongues falsely describe 'this is lawful, and that is forbidden, ' in order to forge a lie about allah. indeed, those who forge a lie about allah shall never prosper. (116)

 

وَلاَ تَقُولُواْ لِمَا تَصِفُ أَلْسِنَتُكُمُ الْكَذِبَ هَذَا حَلاَلٌ وَهَذَا حَرَامٌ لِّتَفْتَرُواْ عَلَى اللّهِ الْكَذِبَ إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَفْتَرُونَ عَلَى اللّهِ الْكَذِبَ لاَ يُفْلِحُونَ ﴿116﴾

brief (is their) enjoyment, after which a painful punishment awaits them. (117)

 

مَتَاعٌ قَلِيلٌ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ ﴿117﴾

we have forbidden the jews what we have already related to you. we did not wrong them, but they wronged themselves. (118)

 

وَعَلَى الَّذِينَ هَادُواْ حَرَّمْنَا مَا قَصَصْنَا عَلَيْكَ مِن قَبْلُ وَمَا ظَلَمْنَاهُمْ وَلَكِن كَانُواْ أَنفُسَهُمْ يَظْلِمُونَ ﴿118﴾

surely, your lord to those who commit evil through ignorance and afterwards repent, and mend their ways your lord thereafter is surely forgiving, merciful. (119)

 

ثُمَّ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ لِلَّذِينَ عَمِلُواْ السُّوءَ بِجَهَالَةٍ ثُمَّ تَابُواْ مِن بَعْدِ ذَلِكَ وَأَصْلَحُواْ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ مِن بَعْدِهَا لَغَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ ﴿119﴾

abraham was (equal to) a nation, obedient to allah, of pure faith and was not among the idolaters, (120)

 

إِنَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ كَانَ أُمَّةً قَانِتًا لِلّهِ حَنِيفًا وَلَمْ يَكُ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ ﴿120﴾

ever thankful for his favors. he chose him and he guided him to a straight path. (121)

 

شَاكِرًا لِّأَنْعُمِهِ اجْتَبَاهُ وَهَدَاهُ إِلَى صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ ﴿121﴾

we gave goodness to him in this world, and in the everlasting life he shall be amongst the righteous. (122)

 

وَآتَيْنَاهُ فِي الْدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةً وَإِنَّهُ فِي الآخِرَةِ لَمِنَ الصَّالِحِينَ ﴿122﴾

then, we revealed to you: 'follow the creed of abraham, he of pure faith, he was not among the idolaters. ' (123)

 

ثُمَّ أَوْحَيْنَا إِلَيْكَ أَنِ اتَّبِعْ مِلَّةَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَنِيفًا وَمَا كَانَ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ ﴿123﴾

the sabbath was ordained only for those who differed about it. on the day of resurrection, your lord will decide the differences that were between them. (124)

 

إِنَّمَا جُعِلَ السَّبْتُ عَلَى الَّذِينَ اخْتَلَفُواْ فِيهِ وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَيَحْكُمُ بَيْنَهُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فِيمَا كَانُواْ فِيهِ يَخْتَلِفُونَ ﴿124﴾

call to the path of your lord with wisdom and fine admonition. dispute with them in the best manner. your lord is well aware of those who have gone astray from his path and he is well aware of those who are guided. (125)

 

ادْعُ إِلِى سَبِيلِ رَبِّكَ بِالْحِكْمَةِ وَالْمَوْعِظَةِ الْحَسَنَةِ وَجَادِلْهُم بِالَّتِي هِيَ أَحْسَنُ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِمَن ضَلَّ عَن سَبِيلِهِ وَهُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِالْمُهْتَدِينَ ﴿125﴾

if you punish, let your punishment be proportionate to the punishment you received. but if you are patient, it is better for the patient. (126)

 

وَإِنْ عَاقَبْتُمْ فَعَاقِبُواْ بِمِثْلِ مَا عُوقِبْتُم بِهِ وَلَئِن صَبَرْتُمْ لَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لِّلصَّابِرينَ ﴿126﴾

be patient; yet your patience is only by the help of allah. do not grieve for them (the unbelievers), nor distress yourself because of their devising. (127)

 

وَاصْبِرْ وَمَا صَبْرُكَ إِلاَّ بِاللّهِ وَلاَ تَحْزَنْ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلاَ تَكُ فِي ضَيْقٍ مِّمَّا يَمْكُرُونَ ﴿127﴾

allah is with the cautious and those who do good. (128)

 

إِنَّ اللّهَ مَعَ الَّذِينَ اتَّقَواْ وَّالَّذِينَ هُم مُّحْسِنُونَ ﴿128﴾
