on the right path.
54. And when Moses said to his people, “O my people, you have done” injustice to your souls by taking the Calf, turn

Creator, so He accepted your penitence. Surely, He is alone the most Relenting, Merciful.

prostrating and saying, ‘forgive our sins, We shall forgive your sins end it is possible that more be given to the
right doers.
59. Then the unjust changed the words besides that which had been told, so We sent down upon them a scourge
from heaven, in lieu of their disobedience.
60. And when Moses asked water for his people, then We said, “Strike this rock with your staff,” atone, there
gushed forth twelve springs therefrom. Each group knew its drinking place. Eat and drink of what Allah has
provided and do not wander in the earth raising mischief.
61. And when you said, “O Moses, we will not remain content with one food, pray then to your Lord, that He bring
forth for us of what the earth grows, some vegetables and cucumbers and wheat and lentils and onions,” said,
“Do you demand inferior things in exchange for the superior?” Well get down in Egypt or in any city, there you
shall get that which you demanded, and humiliation and poverty were stamped upon them and drew in the
wrath of Allah. This was in lieu of their refusal of the Signs of Allah and slaying the prophets unjustly. This was
due to their disobedience and transgression.
62. Surely, those who believe, and the Jews and the Christians and the Sabians, whoever have faith with true
hearts in Allah and in the Last day and do good deeds, their reward is with their Lord, and there shall he no
fear for them nor any grief.
63. And when We took a covenant from you and raised high above you the Mount Toor, hold firmly to what We
give you, and remember what is therein, in the hope that you may become God-fearing.
64. Then you turned back thereafter, so if there had been no Grace of Allah and His mercy upon you, then you
would have been among the losers.
65. And, undoubtedly, you surely know, those among you who rebelled in the matter of Saturday (Sabbath). So
We said to them, “Be Apes, despised.”
66. Thus, We made this event of that town a warning to those of the present and to those after them and a lesson
to the God-fearing.
67. And when Moses said to his people, “Allah commands you to slaughter a cow”. They said, “You make us a
laughingstock”. He said, “Refuge of Allah, that I will be among the ignorant”.
68. They said, “Pray to your Lord that He tells us, what kind of the cow, is,” he said, “Says He, she is a cow,
neither old nor immature, but in between both”, so do what you are commanded.
69. They said, “Pray to your Lord that He tells us what her colour is,” he said, ‘Says He, she is a yellow cow, whose colour is intensely deep, delightful to the beholders.
70. They said, “Pray to Your Lord that He explain clearly to us, what kind of cow is that. Certainly, we have become
dubious about cows, and if Allah wills, we shall get the guidance.
71. (Moses) said, “Says He, that she is a cow, no service is taken from her nor she ploughs the earth, nor water
the filth, unblemished in which there is no spot. They said, “Now you brought the truth, then they slaughtered her
and were not willing to slaughter.
72. And when you shed blood, then began accusing for it each other and Allah was to disclose what you were
hiding.
73. Then We said, “Strike with a part of that cow to the slain. Allah thus will give life to the dead and shows you
His Signs, so that you may understand.
74. Then, thereafter your hearts hardened, then they are like stones, but harder than these; and of stones there
are some from which rivers gush forth and some are those which split, then water comes therefrom and there
are some who fall down for fear of Allah, and Allah is not unmindful of your doings.
75. Then O Muslims! Do you covet that the Jews would believe you? And one group of them was that which used
to hear the words of Allah, then used to pervert it knowingly after having understood it.
76. And when they meet Muslims, they say, ‘We accepted the faith’, and when they are alone among themselves,
then they say, “Do you explain to Muslims that knowledge which Allah disclosed to you, that they thereby
argue with you before your Lord. Have you no wisdom?
77. Do they not know that Allah knows all that they conceal and all that they disclose?
78. And some of them are illiterate and do not know the Book, but oral reading or their own false notions and they
are in mere supposition.
79. Then there is woe for them who write the Book with their own hands and then say, “This is from Allah”, so that
they may gain a small price in lieu of it. Then there is woe for them for the writings of their own hands and woe
to them for such earning.
80. And they said, “The fire shall not touch us except for numbered days”, Say then, have you taken a promise
from Allah, then Allah, will never break His Promise. Or you say about Allah that which you do not know.
81. Aye, why not, who so earns vice and his sin encompasses him, he is one among the people of the hell, they
have to remain therein forever.
82. And those, who accepted faith and did good works. They are the people of Paradise. They have to remain
therein forever.
83. And when We took a covenant from the children of Israel that worship none save Allah and do good to parents
and to kindred, and orphans and the needy and speak well to people and establish prayer and pay the poor-due (Zakat); then you turned back, except a few among you and you are back-sliders.
84. And when We took a covenant from you, that shed no blood of your own and turn not out your own people
from your own towns, then you affirmed it and you are witnesses.
85. Then it is you who began slaying your own people and turn out a group of your own people from their
homeland, provides help to (their opponents) against them in sin and transgression, and if they come to you as
captives, you ransom them, and their expulsion is unlawful for you. Do you then have faith in some
commandments of God and refuse some others? Then whose of you do such, what is the reward of it, save
disgrace in the world, and on the day of Resurrection, they shall be driven towards severest torment, and Allah
is not unaware of your doings.
86. These are the people who purchased the life of the world for the life of Hereafter, so neither the torment shall
be lightened from over them nor they shall be helped.
87. And verily, We gave Moses the Book and after him send Messengers one after another, repeatedly, and gave
clear signs to Jesus son of Mary and helped him with the Holy Spirit. Then, do you grow arrogant; when any
Messenger came to you with what your soul desires not? So believe you a group of them (Prophets) and slay
another group.
88. The Jews said, “Our hearts are wrapped with covers, Nay Allah cursed them because of their blasphemy, so
little of them accept faith.
89. And when there came to them, that Book (Quran) of Allah, which confirms the Book (Taurat) with them, and
before that they were asking for victory over the infidels by means of the same prophet. Then, when came to
them that known and recognised one, they rejected him. So Allah’s curse on those who reject.
90. They sold their souls, for what a miserable price that they deny what Allah has sent down, with this jealousy
that, Allah of His grace sends revelation on whomsoever of His devotees He pleases. Thus they became worthy
of wrath upon wrath and there is humiliating torment for the infidels.
91. And when it is said to them, “Have faith in what Allah has sent down,” then they say, ‘We have faith in what
has been sent down to us and reject the rest, though it is the truth confirming what is with them. Say you,
 
 
‘why did you then kill former prophets, if you had faith upon your Book’?
92. And assuredly, Moses came to you with clear signs, then after that, you made the calf a god and you were
unjust.
93. And recall, when We took a covenant from you and raised above your heads the mountain Tur, hold what We
give to you with firmness and listen. They said, ‘We heard and did not accept,’ and the calf was permeating in
their hearts because of their infidelity. Say then! ‘What a vile command is given to you by your faith, if at all
you have faith’.
94. Say you: ‘if the last home near Allah be for you solely, not for others, then well long for death, if you are
truthful.
95. And they will never long for it ever, because of their evil deeds, which they have done before, and Allah knows
the unjust well.
96. And undoubtedly, you will find them that they are necessarily most covetous of life even more than of all the
people. And of idolaters, one is desirous of having a life of thousand years, and that will not keep him away
from the torment, even being granted such life. And Allah is seeing their doings.
97. Say you, ‘whoever be the enemy of Jibril- then he (Jibril) caused to descend on your heart this Quran by the
Command of Allah, Confirming the former Books, and there is guidance and glad tidings to Muslims’.
98. Whoever be the enemy of Allah and His angels and His Messengers and Jibril and Mikael, then Allah is the
enemy of infidels.
99. And undoubtedly, We sent down towards you manifest Signs; and none would be denying them but the
disobedients.
100. And is it that whenever they enter into a covenant, one party of them throws it out’ Nay; most of them have no
faith?
101. And when came to them a Messenger from Allah confirming their Books. A party of the people of the Book
threw away the Book of Allah behind their backs, as if they had no knowledge.
102. And they followed that which was being recited by the devils in the reign of Suleman and Suleman did not
disbelieve, yes; the devils disbelieved. They teach magic to people and that (Magic) which was sent down unto
the two angels Harut & Marut in Babel. But both did teach nothing to anyone till they did not say this, “We are
nothing but trial”, then do not therefore lose your faith. They learnt that from them by which they might cause
separation between man and his wife, and they can not harm anyone, but by the command of Allah. And they
learn that which will harm them, and will not profit. And undoubtedly, they know that one who took this trade,
has no share in the hereafter and undoubtedly, what the evil thing is that for which they sold their souls, had
they known!
103. And if they had accepted faith and kept themselves aloof from sins, then there is better reward from Allah, had
they known.
104. O Men of faith do not say. Raina, but say humbly, respected Sir. “Look upon us” and from very beginning listen
carefully, and for the disbeliveers is a grievous torment.
105. Those who are infidels, whether people of the book or idolaters, do not desire that any good should be sent
down to you from your Lord and Allah chooses for His Mercy, whomsoever He pleases, and Allah is of
Exceeding Bounty.
106. When any verse We abrogate or cause to be forgotten, then shall bring one better or the like thereof. Do you
not know that Allah can do all and every thing?
107. Do you not know that the sovereignty of heavens and earth is only for Allah and beside Allah, you have neither
any supporter nor helper?
108. Do you wish to question your Messenger as Moses was questioned before and whoever exchanges faith for
unbelief, he rightly has gone astray from the right path?
109. Many of the people of the Book desired, had you been turned back towards infidelity after faith! Out of sheer
envy of their hearts, after it that the truth has become manifest unto them, so leave them and overlook, till
Allah brings His command. Undoubtedly Allah is powerful over every thing.
110. And keep up the prayer and pay Zakat (poor due) and whatever good you shall send forth for your souls, you
shall find it with Allah. Undoubtedly Allah is seeing your doings.
111. And the people of the Book spoke, ‘None shall enter paradise, but he who be a Jew or Christian. These are
their vain desires. Say, you ‘Bring your proof, if you are truthful’.
112. Yes, why not, who submitted his face for Allah and is the doer of good, then his reward is with his Lord and
they have neither any fear nor any grief.
113. And the Jews spoke, ‘`The Christians are nothing,” and Christians spoke; “The Jews are nothing,” though they
read the Book. Even thus the illiterates said the like of their saying. Then Allah will judge between them on the
Day of Judgement regarding that wherein they are disputing.
 
 
114. Who is more unjust than he who prevents the mosques of Allah from being mentioned the name of Allah, and
strives to ruin them, it was not proper for them to enter the mosques but with fear. For them, there is disgrace
in the world and for them, there is great torment in the hereafter.
115. And east and west all is for Allah, then whichever side you turn your face there is the face of Allah (The mercy
of Allah inclined towards you). Undoubtedly Allah is all Embracing, all Knowing.
116. And they say ‘Allah has taken unto Himself a son’, sanctity is for Him. Nay, whatever is in the heavens and is in
the earth is His possession. All are unto Him subservient.
117. The Originator of the heavens and the earth, and when He decrees any thing, then says to it only, ‘Be and it
becomes at once.”
118. And the illiterates spoke, ‘Why Allah speaks not to us or any sign is being given to us. Likewise said those
before them, similar to their saying. The hearts of these people and of those are alike. Undoubtedly, We
manifested the signs for the persons of firm faith.
119. Assuredly, We have sent you with the truth; bearer of glad tidings and a Warner and you shall not be
questioned about the inmates of Hell.
120. And never the Jews and Christians will be pleased with you unless you follow their Din (creed). Say then! ‘The
guidance of Allah is the only guidance’, (O listener who he may be) if you become follower of their desires,
after the knowledge that has come to you, then no one will be your protector from Allah and no helper.
121. Those who have been given the Book by Us, they recite it as it ought to be, they alone have faith unto it and
those who disbelieve it, they alone are the losers.
122. O Children of Yaqoob! Remember My favour which I bestowed upon you and that I exalted you above all
people of that period.
123. And fear the day when no soul shall be a substitute for another and nor it shall be freed for any compensation,
and nor any intercession will profit the infidels and nor will they be helped.
124. And when his Lord tested Ibrahim with certain words then he fulfilled them. Said He “I am to make you leader
of the people,” submitted he” and from my off springs”. Said He, “My covenant does not reach to the unjust”.
125. And recall! When We made this house a place of assembly for the people and a place of safety, and make the
station of Ibrahim a place of prayer and We enjoined strictly upon Ibrahim and Ismail to purify well My house
for those who go around it and those who stay therein for devotion and those who bow down and prostrate.
126. And when Ibrahim submitted “O my Lord make this City a region of peace and feed the inhabitants of it with
varied fruits to such of them who believe in Allah and the Last Day,’ said He, “and who became unbeliever, to
him also I will give a little to use, and then shall force him towards the torment of the hell and that is an evil
place of return.
127. And when Ibrahim was raising the foundations of this house and Ismail (too) praying, O Our Lord accept from
us, undoubtedly, You alone Hear and Know’.
128. ‘O Our Lord! Make us submissive to You and of our offspring a nation submissive to You, tell us our ways of
worship, and turn to us with Your mercy. Surely, You alone are most Relenting and Merciful.
129. ‘O Our Lord, and send in them a messenger from among themselves, who may recite to them Your signs and
teach them Your Book and wise knowledge and may purify them well. Surely, You are alone the Predominant,
the Wise.
130. And who will turn his face from the religion of Ibrahim, save one who is a foolish in heart, and undoubtedly,
We necessarily, chose him in the world and surely he is among the people having ability to gain Our special
proximity in the hereafter.
131. When his Lord said to him, “Surrender”, submitted he, ‘I surrendered to Him, Who is the Lord of all the worlds’.
132. And Ibrahim left the legacy of the same religion to his sons and Yaqoob too; that ‘O my sons, surely Allah has
chosen this religion for you, therefore die not, but as Muslim.
133. On the contrary, some of you were present, when death came to Yaqoob, when he said to his sons, ‘whom you
will worship after me’, said they ‘we shall worship He Who is your God and of your fathers Ibrahim and Ismail
and Ishaque, the one God and to Him we have submitted ourselves’.
134. This is a community that has passed away, for them what they earned and for you are what you earn and you
shall not be questioned for their deeds.
135. And the people of the book spoke, ‘Be Jews or Christians, you will get guidance’. Say you, ‘on the contrary, we
take the religion of Ibrahim who was away from every falls-hood and was not among the polytheists’.
136. Say like this, ‘we believe in Allah and what has been sent down towards us and what was sent down on
Ibrahim and Ismail and Ishaque and Yaqoob and on his son and what was given to Moses and Christ and what
was given to the rest of the prophets from their Lord: we do not differentiate between any of them in the
matter of faith and we have submitted ourselves to Allah.
137. Then if they believe too, as you have believed then they are guided, and if they turn back their faces, then they
 
 
are but in total schism. So, O beloved, prophet! Soon Allah will suffice you on behalf of them. He is alone
Hearing and Knowing.
138. We took the dye of Allah and whose dye is better than Allah and We worship Him alone.
139. Say you! ‘Do you dispute about Allah, though He is our Lord and yours too; and our doings are with us and
your doings with you, and we belong totally to Him alone.
140. On the contrary, you say like this, that Ibrahim, and Ismail and Ishaque and Yaqoob and his sons were Jews or
Christians; say then, ‘have you more knowledge or Allah,’ and who is more unjust than he who conceals’ the
testimony and Allah is not unmindful of your doings.
141. That is a community that has passed away, for them is their earning and for you is your earning and you shall
not be questioned of their works.
142. Now the fools will say: ‘who has turned the Muslims from their Qibla on which they had been? Say you: ‘East
and West all belong to Allah; He guides whom He likes to the right path.
143. And thus We made you exalted among all nations that you may be witnesses to the people and this Messenger
your guard and witness. And O, beloved! We had not made that Qibla upon which you had been before, but to
see who follows the Messenger and who turns back upon his heals. And verily, indeed it was hard, but to those
who were guided by Allah. And it does not behave Allah that He might waste your faith: Verily Allah is very
Kind and Merciful to human beings.
144. We are seeing the turning of your face towards heaven repeatedly; necessarily then We will turn you towards
that Qibla which pleases you. Turn your face towards the sacred mosque (Kaaba) just now; and O Muslims!
Turn your faces towards the same, whenever you be. And those who; have been given the Book know
necessarily, that this is the truth from their Lord, and Allah is not unaware of their doings.
145. And even if you should, bring every sign to those people of the Book, they would not follow your Qibla: And
you follow not their Qibla, and they are not followers of each other Qibla among themselves too. And (O
listener, whoever he may be) if you should follow their desires after the knowledge that has been given to you,
then at that time, you shall surely be of the transgressors.
146. Those whom We gave the Book recognise this prophet as a man recognises his sons and no doubt, a group of
them conceal the truth knowingly.
147. (O Listener) If it is the truth from your Lord (or the truth is that which is from your Lord) then beware! Doubt
not.
148. And there is a direction of inclination for everyone towards which, he turns his face; then desire that you may
surpass others in good deeds. Wherever you be, Allah will bring you all together. No doubt, Allah has the
power to do all that He wills.
149. And from where so ever you come forth turn your face towards the sacred Mosque (Kaaba) and that is
necessarily, the truth from your Lord and Allah is not unaware of your doings.
150. And O beloved! When so-ever you come forth turn your face towards the sacred Mosque (Kaaba) And O
Muslims! Turn your faces towards the same, wherever you be, so that people may have no argument against
you, but those among them who do injustice, so fear them not and fear Me. And it is for this that I may perfect
My favour upon you and that you may be rightly guided.
151. As We sent in you Messenger from among you, that he recites Our signs to you and purifies you and teaches
you the Book and mature knowledge and teaches you that which you did not know.
152. Therefore remember Me, I shall remember you, and accept My right and do not be ungrateful to Me.
153. O Believers! Seek help with patience and prayer; no doubt, Allah is with the Patients.
154. And say not those who are killed in the path of Allah as dead; but they are alive yes, you are unaware.
155. And necessarily, We shall put you to test with something of fear and hunger and with some loss of wealth and
lives and fruits; and give glad tidings to the patient.
156. That when any calamity comes to them, then they say “We are belongings of Allah and we are to return to Him
alone.”
157. These are the people on whom are the benediction from their Lord and mercy; and they are only on the
guidance.
158. No doubt, Safa and Marwa are among the symbols of Allah, then whose makes pilgrimage to this House or
performs “Umra”, there is no sin for him that he may go round both, and who so does any good voluntarily,
then Allah is Appreciating and All-knowing.
159. No doubt, those who conceal what We have sent down of clear signs and guidance after that We have made it
clear in the Book for the people, on them there is the curse of Allah and the curse of those who curse.
160. But those who repent and amend and make manifest then I shall accept their repentance and I am the only
Relenting Merciful.
161. No doubt, those who disbelieved and died as disbelievers on them are the curse of Allah and of Angels and of men combined.
162. They will never remain in it, neither the torment shall be lightened from them nor shall they be granted
respite.
163. And your God is one God, there is no God but He most Gracious and Merciful.
164. Verily, the creation of heavens and earth and coming of night and day alternately, and the boat that sails in the
river for the benefit of the people, and that which Allah sends down of water from heaven, and revives the
dead earth thereby and scatters all kinds of beast therein, and the change of winds and the cloud that is
obedient between heaven and earth, in all of them, necessarily there are signs for the wise people.
165. And some people set some other deities of worship other than Allah that they love them as they are to love
Allah and the believers love not anyone equal to that of Allah. And what would be the condition, if the
transgressors see the time when the torments would come before their eyes because all power belongs to
Allah and because the torment of Allah is severe.
166. When those who were followed would be disgusted with their followers and would see the torment and all their
ties shall be cut asunder.
167. And the followers will say, ‘Would that for us there were a return (in the world) then We would have broken
with them as they have broken with us. Thus will Allah show them their works as anguish for them, and they
are not to come out from the Fire.
168. O, Mankind! Eat of whatever is in earth lawful clean and follow not the steps of the Devil, no doubt, he is your
open enemy.
169. He will only command you to evil and indecency and that you should say of Allah what you do not know.
170. And when it is said to them, ‘follow what Allah has sent down, they say, ‘Nay We shall follow that whereon we
found our fathers, what! Even if their fathers had no sense at all and no guidance?
171. And the saying of disbeliveers is like him who calls unto that who hears nothing except a shout and cry; deaf,
dumb, blind, so they have no sense.
172. O, believers! Eat our good things provided to you, and be grateful to Allah, if it is He whom you worship.
173. He has only made unlawful to you the Carrion, and blood and the flesh of swine and the animal that has been
slaughtered by calling a name other than Allah. But he who is driven by necessity, eat neither desiring not,
exceeding the need then there is no sin on him, no doubt, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.
174. Those who conceal the Book sent down by Allah and in exchange of it accept mean price; they fill-in their
bellies with fire only and Allah will not talk to them on the Day of Resurrection and nor will He purify them and
for them is painful torment.
175. Those are they who purchased error in exchange of guidance and torment for forgiveness. Then to what
degree is their endurance for fire.
176. This is because Allah sent down the Book with truth, and no doubt, those who began to put difference in the
Book, they are necessarily, brawlers of highest degree.
177. The real righteousness is not this that you turn your face towards East or West; yes, the real virtue is this that
one has faith in Allah and the Last day and the angels and the Book and the Prophets and gives his dear wealth
for love of Allah to kindred and orphans and the needy and the wayfarer and the beggars and for redeeming
necks, and establishes prayer and pays poor due (Zakat); and the performer of their promises when make
promise and the patients in tribulation and adversity and at time of crusade;-These are they, who proved truth
of their talks and they are only God-fearing.
178. O, believers: It is obligatory upon you to take retaliation of the blood of those who are killed innocently, the.
Free for free and the slave for slave and woman for woman. Then as for him who is forgiven something by his
brother, there should be demand for payment with kindness and the payment be made satisfactorily well. This
is to ease your burden from your Lord and a mercy upon you. Then after this one who transgresses for him
there is painful torment.
179. And there is life for you in retaliating for blood, O men of understanding! So that you may save yourselves.
180. Made obligatory on you that when death approaches any of you, if he leaves some property, then he should
make a will for his parents and near relatives according to usage. This is an obligation on those who fear God.
181. Then who so changes the will after hearing, the sin thereof is only on those who change it. No doubt, Allah
knows and hears.
182. Then who feared, that the testator has done certain injustice or sin, then he made peace between them, there
is no sin for him no doubt Allah is Forgiving Merciful.
183. O Believers! Fasting have been made obligatory upon you as were made obligatory upon those before you, so
that you may become pious.
184. The days are counted. Then who so among you is ill or on a journey then same number of fasting in other
days, and those who have no strength, they should give in ransom meal to a needy: then who so does more
 
 
good voluntarily, then that is better for him, and fasting is better for you if you know.
185. The month of Ramzan in which Quran was sent down, the direction for the people and guidance and clear
signs of judgement; that whoso of you finds this month, necessarily, he should fast in it, and whoso is ill or on
a journey then same number of fasting in other days; Allah desires facility for you and desires not hardship and
for this, that you should complete the counting and speak of the Greatness of Allah, as He guided you and so
that you may be grateful.
186. And O beloved, when My bondsmen ask you about Me, then I am indeed near, accept the call of the caller
when he calls upon Me; then they should obey My Commands and believe in Me, so that they may get the way.
187. It was made lawful for you to go near your women in the nights of fasting. They are your garments and you
are their garments. Allah know that you used to put your souls in defalcation, then He accepted your
repentance and pardoned you; then now copulate (Intercourse) with them and seek what Allah has written in
your destiny and eat and drink until white thread becomes distinct to you from the black thread at the dawn;
then complete the fasts till coming of night, and do not touch the women when you remain in the mosques, for
devotion. These are the limits of Allah, do not approach them. Allah thus describes His Signs to the people, so
that they may become pious.
188. And do not eat up unjustly the property of each other among yourselves and nor’ convey their cases to the
authorities for devouring unlawfully some portion of the property of the people knowingly.
189. They ask you about the new moons. Say you, ‘They are the signs of time for the people and pilgrimage (Haj).
And it is no virtue that you enter your houses by the backs thereof, yes, the virtue is piety, so come in houses
by their doors and fear Allah in the hope that you may get prosperity.
190. And fight in the way of Allah, those who fight against you and do not transgress, Allah does not love the
transgressors.
191. And kill the infidels wherever you find and turn them out from the place where from they turned you out; and
their mischief is more grievous than killing. And if they fight them near the sacred mosque unless they fight
you therein, and they fight against you then kill, them. This is the only punishment of infidels.
192. Then if they desist, then no doubt, Allah is Forgiving Merciful.
193. And fight them until there is no mischief and be there worship of one Allah, then if they desist, there is no
violence save against oppressors.
194. There is forbidden month in exchange of forbidden month and elegant manner in exchange of elegant manner
Whoso does violence against you, do violence against him in the same measure as he did, and remain tearing
Allah and know that Allah is with the God-fearing.
195. And spend in the way of Allah, and cast not yourself in destruction with your hand and be good-doers; no
doubt! Good doers are the beloveds of Allah.
196. And fulfil the Haj and Umra for Allah. Then if you are prevented, send sacrifice which you may get easily and
shave not your heads, unless the sacrifice reaches its destination; Then whoso is ill of you or there is some
ailment in his head, then he should keep fast in exchange or give alms or sacrifice, then when you are at ease,
then whoso takes advantage by combining Umra with Haj, on him there is sacrifice which may be obtained
easily. Then whoso cannot afford. He should fast for three days during Haj and seven days when he returns
back home, these are ten days complete. This Command is for him who is not the dweller of Mecca and
remains fearing to Allah and knows that the torment of Allah is severe.
197. The months of Haj are known; then whoso determines to perform Haj in these months, then there should be
no mention of Copulation before women nor any sin nor quarrelling with anyone till the time of Haj; and
whatever good you do, Allah knows it. And take necessary provision with you, the best provision is piety and
remain fearing Me, O Men of under standing!
198. There is no sin unto you that you seek the bounty of your Lord. Then when you return back from ‘Arafat’
remembers Allah near Mashhare-Haram (Qazah Mountain) and remembers Him as He guided you and no
doubt, you had gone astray before.
199. Then the thing is this that O Men of Quraish, you also return back from the same place whence the people
return back and seek forgiveness from Allah: no doubt Allah is Forgiving Merciful.
200. Then when you have completed the acts of Haj, remember Allah as you used to remember your fathers, but
more than that, and some one says like this, ‘O our Lord give us in the world and there is no share of him in
the Hereafter.
201. And someone says like this, ‘O our Lord give us good in the world and give us good in the Hereafter and save
us from the torment of the Hell
202. To such people there is share from their earning and Allah is swift at reckoning.
203. And remember Allah during Numbered days. Then whoso hastens to leave in two days; there is no sin unto him
and whoso stays behind, then on him is no sin for the God fearing, and remain fearing God and know that you
 
 
have to be raised unto Him.
204. And some one of men is he whose talk seems pleasing to you and bring Allah as a witness on what is in his
heart, while he is the greatest disputer.
205. And when he turns his back then wanders spreading mischief in the land and destroys the crops and lives and
Allah agrees not with the mist chief.
206. And when it is said to him, ‘fear Allah’ then he becomes more persistence in sin, to such the hell is enough and
that is necessarily, a very bad bed.
207. And some one of men sells his life in seeking the pleasure of Allah and Allah is Merciful over his bondmen.
208. O People of Faith! enter into Islam as a whole and do not follow the footsteps of Satan (devil); no doubt, he is
your open enemy.
209. And even after this, that clear commands have come unto you, you slip, then know that Allah is Mighty, Wise.
210. What they are waiting for but for this that the torment of Allah should come in the coverings of clouds and the
angels should come down and the affairs be completed and to Allah are all affairs returned.
211. Ask children of Israel, how many clear signs We gave them and whoso changes the favour of Allah after it has
come, then no doubt, the torment of Allah is severe.
212. The life of the world has been decorated in the eyes of infidels and they laugh at Muslims and those who fear
would be above them on the Day of Resurrection; and God bestows without counting whomsoever He pleases.
213. People were on one religion thereafter Allah sent prophets giving good tidings and warning and sent down with
them the true Book that it should judge between people in their differences. And only those differed in the
Book to whom it was given after clear commands had come to them, through refraction among themselves.
Then Allah showed the truth to the believers in which they were quarrelling by His Command, and Allah shows
the straight path whomsoever He pleases.
214. Do you imagine that you will enter Paradise, and yet the incidents like of your forerunners did not come unto
you? The affliction and adversity reached to them and they were badly shaken until the messenger and
believers along with him said, ‘when will come the help of Allah Listen: no doubt, the help of Allah is nigh.
215. They ask you what they should spend. Say: whatever wealth you spend in good, then that is for parents and
near relatives and orphans and the needy and the wayfarer. And whatsoever good you do, no doubt: Allah
knows it.
216. It was made obligatory upon you, to fight in the path of God and though it is disliked by you, and it may
happen that any thing may be disliked by you and that may be in your favour, and it may happen that anything
may be liked by you and that may not be in your favour, and Allah knows and you do not know.
217. They ask you the precept for fighting in the sacred month. Say you: ‘Fighting therein is a great sin; but to
prohibit from the way of Allah, and not to have faith in Him and to prevent from the sacred Mosque (Haram)
and to oust its dwellers, are greater sins than it with Allah; and their mischief is more grievous than killing. And
they will remain fighting against you always, until they turn you back from your faith, if they can. And whoso
among you turns back from his faith, then dies as an infidel, then their works shall go in vain in the world and
in the Hereafter, and they are the people of Hell and will abide in it.
218. Those who believed and those who left their home and hearth for Allah and fought in the way of Allah, they
are the aspirants of the mercy of Allah and Allah is Forgiving Merciful.
219. They ask you the precept of wine and gambling. Say you, ‘in both there is great sin and also some worldly
profit for the people but their sin is greater than their profit and ask you what they ought to spend, say you,
‘that which is saved after your needs’. Thus, Allah explains to you His Signs so that you may do after reflecting,
220. The works of the world and the Hereafter. And they ask you, the precept about orphans. Say you, ‘To do good
to them is better, and if you intermix your and their expenses then they are your brothers; and Allah knows
well the mischief-maker from the reformer. And had Allah so willed, He would have put you into hardship, no
doubt, Allah is Mighty, Wise.
221. And marry not idolaters until they accept faith and no doubt, a Muslim bondman is better than an idolater is
though she may please you. And give not in marriage to idolaters until they accept faith, and no doubt, a
Muslim bondman is better than an idolater, though he may please you. They call towards Hell and Allah call
towards Heaven and forgiveness by His Command and explain His Signs for the people so that they may accept
admonition.
222. And they ask you the precept about menstruation. Say you: – that is a pollution, so keep away from women
during menstruation and do not approach them until they are roach them until they are clean. Then when they
are clean, go in unto them whence Allah has commanded you. No doubt, Allah likes the constant repentance
and likes cleansers.
223. Your women are tilths for you, then come in your tilth as you will, and do first the work for your good, and
remain fearing Allah and know that you are to meet Him. And O beloved! Give glad tidings to the believers.
 
 
224. And make not Allah the target of your oaths that you may take oath for not doing good and nor fearing Allah
and nor making peace between men; and Allah Hears, Knows.
225. Allah does not call you to account for your such oaths as they come out from your tongs unintentionally, yes,
He calls you to account for what your hearts have done, and Allah is Forgiving, For” bearing.
226. For those who swear off from going to their wives is an awaiting of four months; hence if they go back in this
period, then Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
227. And if you decide firmly to divorce, then Allah Hears, Knows.
228. And divorced women should keep their souls away till three menstruations, and it is not lawful to them that
they conceal what Allah has created in their wombs. If they have faith in Allah and the Last Day. And their
husbands have the right to take them back during that period provided they will to rejoin. And the women have
rights similar to those over them according to law, and men have superiority over them and Allah is Dominant,
Wise.
229. This divorce is for two times only; then is to retain with good or to release with kindness, and it is not allowed
to you to take back something of what you have given to the women, but if both fear that they could not keep
the limits of Allah. Then, if you fear that the Twain shall not remain just on the same limits then there is no sin
on them for that with which the woman ransoms herself. These are the limits of Allah, do not transgress them,
and whoso transgresses the limits of Allah, then they are the oppressors.
230. Then if she is divorced for the third time, then that women will not be lawful to him, until she lives with another
husband, then if that second one divorces her, then there is no sin on the twain if they come together again, if
they think that they will observe the limits of Allah, and these are the limits of Allah. He explains them for the
learned.
231. And when you divorce women and their period are completed, then, till that time either retain them kindly or
release them kindly, but there should not be retention to hurt them so that you may transgress the limit and
whoso does this, he wrongs his own soul, and do not make jest of the signs of Allah and remember the favour
of Allah upon you and the Book and Wisdom which He has sent down to you for admonishing you, and remain
fearing Allah and know that Allah knows all things.
232. And when you divorce women and their period are completed, then O guardians of women! Prevent them not
from marrying their husbands, when they agree among themselves according to law. This counsel is given to
him who among you have faith in Allah and the Last Day. This is cleaner and purer for you, and Allah knows
and you do not know.
233. And mothers should suckle their children for complete two years, for him who intends to complete the period of
suckling, and to whom the child belongs, on him there is feeding and clothing of the women according to
convention. No soul shall be burdened but within his capacity, the mother should not be made to suffer
because of her child and nor father because of his child or (the mother should not make the child to suffer, and
nor father to his child, and the same is incumbent on the father’s heir. Then if the mother and father both try
to wean by mutual consent and consultation, there is no sin on them; and if you wish that your children should
be suckled by nurses, then too there is no blame on you, provided what was agreed to pay is paid by you with
kindness, and remain fearing Allah and know that Allah is seeing your works.
234. And those of you who die and leave behind wives, they should keep themselves apart for a period of four
months and ten days, then when they complete their period, then O guardians! There is no blame on you in
anything, which the women do with regard to themselves according to law. And Allah is aware what you do.
235. And there is no sin on, you regarding this, that you sent offer of marriage to women by giving obscure hint or
hold it in your hearts. Allah knows that now you will remember them. Yes, make not with them secret contract,
but say that much only which is known in law. And do not resolve wedding-tie until the written term reaches to
its period and know that Allah knows what is in your heart, then fear him and know that Allah is Forgiving,
Forbearing
236. There is no any demand against you if you divorce the women while you have not touched them or have fixed
any dower. And give them something to carry on with the men of resources according to his means and the
poor according to his means some” thing to carry on with, this is incumbent on the well doers.
237. And if you divorced women without touching them and for them you had already fixed some dower, then what
much was agreed half of it is incumbent but if the women forgo something or he gives more in whose hand is
the tied of the marriage, and O men your giving more is nearer to’ piety. And do not forget doing good to each
other among! Your selves. No doubt, Allah is seeing your works.
238. Watch over all your prayers and the middle prayer and stand before Allah with devotion.
239. And if you are in fear then, on foot or riding, as you can, then when you are secure remember Allah as He
taught you that which you did not know.
240. And those of you who die and leave behind them wives, they should bequeath for their women to provide them
 
 
maintenance for a year without turning them out; then if they themselves leave, you are not accountable
regarding any proper thing which they did in their matters and Allah is Dominant, Wise.
241. And for a divorced woman too there is proper maintenance, it is incumbent on the God fearing
242. Thus Allah explains His signs for you so that you may understand.
243. O beloved! Had you not seen those who came out from their homes and they were in thousands for fear of
death? Then Allah said to them. “Die” and thereafter made them alive. No doubt, Allah is Gracious to people
but most of the people are ungrateful.
244. And fight in the way of Allah and know that Allah Hears Knows.
245. Is there any who should give a goodly loan to Allah so that Allah may increase many times for him. And Allah
scants and amplifies, and you are to return unto Him.
246. O Beloved! Did you not see a group of the children of Israel after Moosa? When they spoke to a prophet of
theirs, ‘raise for us a king that we may fight in the way of Allah’. The prophet told, ‘Are your style like this that
if the fighting is made obligatory on you, thereafter you may not fight’? Spoke they, ‘what happened to us that
we should not fight in the way of Allah whereas we have been driven away from our homeland and from our
Children? But when fighting was made obligatory! On them, they turned their faces but a few of them, and
Allah knows very well the, unjust.
247. And their prophet said to them. ‘Verily Allah has sent Talut as your king.’ Spoke they ‘How can there be
kingship of him over us, whereas we are more entitled for the kingship than he, and nor he has been given
abundance of wealth too’. Said the prophet “Allah has chosen him over you, and has increased him abundantly
in knowledge and body, and Allah gives His kingdom to whom He will and Allah is All-Embracing All-knowing.
248. And their prophet said to them: ‘the sign of his king ship is that there would come to you an ark in which there
is ranquility of hearts from your Lord, and there are something left of the relics of the respectable Moosa and
the respectable Haroon, the angels raising it would bring. No doubt, in it there is great sign for you if you
believe
249. When Talut aparted taking the armies from the City spoke he: ‘no doubt Allah is to test you with a stream.
Then whoso drinks he is not mine, and whose drinks not, he is mine, but he who takes a sip with his hand,
then all drank of it except a few of them. Again when Talut and the Muslim with him went across the stream
spoke, ‘we have no power against Jalut and his armies’. Those who were sure to meet Allah spoke, ‘that often
a small party has triumphed over a large party by Allah’s Command, and Allah is with the steadfast.
250. Again when they came across Jalut and his armies, they submitted: ‘O our Lord pour forth steadfastness upon
us and make our steps firm, and help us against disbelieving people.
251. Then they routed them by the Command of Allah and Daud slew Jalut and Allah gave him Kingdom and
wisdom and taught him what He pleased. And if Allah would not repel some of them by some others among
people, then necessarily the earth, would have been ruined, but Allah is Munificent to entire, world.
252. These are the verses of. Allah, that O beloved! We recite correctly to you and you are no doubt one of the
Messengers.
253. These are messengers! That in them We caused one to excel upon the other: to some of them Allah spoke:
and some one is he who was raised high in degrees over-all, and We gave clear signs to Isa son of Marium and
aided him with holy spirit and had Allah so willed, then those who came after them would not have fought
among themselves after the clear signs had come to them. But they differed, some of them remained faithful
and some became disbeliveers and if Allah so willed, they would not have fought; but Allah does whatever He
desires.
254. O Believers! Spend in the way of Allah out of what We have given you before coming of the Day in which there
is neither trafficking not friendship and nor intercession for infidels and the infidels are themselves the persons
unjust.
255. Allah is; none is to be worshiped save Him, He is Himself Alive and Sustainer of others. Slumber seizes Him not,
nor sleep. To Him belongs whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever in the earth. Who is he that would
intercede with Him save by His leave. Knows He what is before them and what is behind them and they get
nothing of His knowledge save what He desires. The heaven and earth are contained in His Throne and their
guarding is not a burden for Him and He is the only Exalted, the Supreme.
256. There is no compulsion in religion; no doubt the virtuous path has become clearly distinct from the erring; then
whoso does not accept devil and believes in Allah, he grasped a very firm knot which is never to open and Allah
Hears and Knows.
257. Allah is the Protector of Muslims; brings them out from darkness towards light and the supporters of infidels
are devils, and they bring them forth from light towards darkness. They are the people of hell, they are to
abide therein.
258. O Beloved (Prophet)! Had you not seen him who quarrelled with Ibrahim about his Lord because Allah gave
 
 
him Kingdom? When Ibrahim said, my Lord is He who gives life and causes death, said he, ‘I give life and
cause death’. Ibrahim said, ‘Well, Allah brings sun from East: bring it you from the West. ‘Thereupon the
infidels were confounded and Allah guides not the unjust people.
259. Or like him who passed by a town and it was laid down fallen upon its roofs. Spoke he, ‘How Allah shall give
life to it after its death. Then Allah kept him died for a hundred years; then gave him life. Said, He! ‘How long
you stayed here, submitted he ‘I would have stayed a full day or a little less.’ He said, ‘No you have passed a
hundred years, and look at your food and drink; they are not stinked as yet and look at your ass whose bones
even are not safe. And this is that We may make you a sign for the people. And look at these bones how, We
set them up, then cover them with flesh. When this matter became clear to him, said, ‘I know very well that
Allah is Potent over all things.
260. And when Ibrahim submitted, ‘O my Lord, show me how You shall give life to the dead.’ Said He, ‘do you not
believe.’ Submitted he, ‘why not, but I like that my heart may be at rest. ‘Said He, ‘then well, taking four birds,
make them familiar to you, then put a part of each of them on each hill, thereafter call them they will come to
you running with their feet. And know that Allah is Mighty, Wise.
261. The example of those who spend their wealth in the way of Allah is like that of a grain which caused to grow
seven ears and in each ear one hundred grains and Allah may increase more than that for whomsoever He
pleases; and Allah is Bountiful, All-knowing.
262. Those who spend their wealth in the way of Allah, then after spending neither boast of favours conferred nor
injure, their reward is with their Lord, and they shall have no fear, nor any grief.
263. To speak kind word and to forgive is better than that; charity followed by injury. And Allah is above want,
Clement.
264. O Believers! Void not your charities by boasting of your favours conferred and injuring, like him who spent his
wealth for showing to people and believes not in Allah and Last Day. Then the example of him is like that of a
smooth rock on which is dust of earth; now a heavy rain fell upon it leaving it a bare stone. They shall have no
control on anything of what they have earned and Allah guides not the infidels.
265. And the example of those who spend their wealth in seeking the pleasure of Allah and for strengthening their
hearts is like that garden which is on an elevated ground; a heavy rain fell upon it then it brought forth its
fruits two fold; again if a heavy rain reaches it not, then dew suffices. And Allah is seeing what you do.
266. Would any one of you like it that he would have a garden of dates and grapes beneath which rivers would have
been flowing; for him, there is every kind of fruit in it, and old age came to him and he has weak children, then
came a whirlwind on it in which there was fire, so it was burnt? Thus Allah explains to you His signs, so that
you may ponder.
267. O Believers! Give something of your pure earnings and of what We produce from the earth for you; and intend
not to give especially vile of it, whereas if you get of it, you will not accept unless you close your eyes in it. And
know that Allah is free of all wants, Praiseworthy.
268. The devil dreads you of destitution and commands you of lewdness, and Allah promises you forgiveness and
abundance. And Allah is All-Embracing All-Knowing.
269. Allah grants wisdom to whom He pleases and he who got wisdom indeed got abundant good; and none
accepts counsel but men of under” standing.
270. And whatsoever you spend or vows Allah knows it and the unjust have no helpers.
271. If you give charity openly then what a good thing it is; and if you give to beggars hidingly it is better for you
than every thing, and He will remove some of your sins. And Allah is Aware of what you do.
272. To guide them is not your responsibility; yes Allah guides whomsoever He pleases. And whatsoever good thing
you give it is for your own good, and it is not proper for you to spend but for seeking pleasure of Allah and
whatever of wealth you give, you will get back in full and you shall not be wronged.
273. For those beggars who are detained in the way of Allah, they cannot move about in the earth. The ignorant
man thinks them wealthy because of their restraint. You shall recognise them from their faces; they do not beg
of men importunately. And whatever you give in charity Allah knows it.
274. Those who spend their wealth (in charity) in the night and in the day secretly and openly. They have their
reward with their Lord. There is neither any fear nor any grief to them.
275. Those who devour interest shall not stand on the Day of judgement, but like the standing of one whom the evil
spirit has by touching made mad. This is because they said ‘The trade too is like interest,’ and Allah made trade
lawful and made interest unlawful. So he, who received admonition from his Lord and refrained, then whatever
he took before is lawful to him, and his affair is with Allah. And now whoever shall commit such. Fault, they are
men of hell, they will live therein for longer period.
276. Allah destroys interest and increases charity and Allah loves not any ungrateful big sinner.
277. No doubt, those who accepted faith and did good deeds and established prayer and paid the Zakat, (poor-due)
 
 
their reward is with their Lord and there is neither any fear nor any grief to them.
278. O Believers! Fear Allah and leave what remains of interest if you are Muslims.
279. But if you do not do like this, then be sure of war from Allah and the Messenger of Allah. And if you repent
then take your principal sums, neither you wrong anyone nor be wronged yourselves.
280. And if the debtor is a man in hardship then give him time till it is easy, and to remit the debt fully is better for
you if you know.
281. And fear the day in which you shall be made to return to Allah and shall every soul be paid in full what it has
earned and they shall not be wronged.
282. O Believers! When you enter the transaction of any debt for a fixed period, then write it down. And a scribe
should write between you justly, and the scribe should not refuse to write as he has been taught by Allah, then
he should write and let him on whom. The liability falls dictate and fear Allah Who is his Lord and leaves not
behind something out of the liability. Then again he on whom liability falls be of low understanding or be weak
or be unable to dictate; then let his guardian dictate justly. And make two witnesses from among your men,
then if two men be not available then a man and two women such witnesses, as you like, so that either of the
two women errs in memory, then the other may remind to that one. And when the witnesses are called, they
should not refuse to come. And do not take it as a burden, the liability be it small or big, write it down along
with its fixed period. It is juster in the sight of Allah, in it the evidence will be more suitable and it is nearer to it
that you may not be in doubt; save a ready merchandise which you give or take from hand to hand, there is no
sin on you if you write it not. And when you trade, make witnesses. And neither any scribe be harmed nor the
witness (or neither the scribe do harm nor the witness). And if you do such then it would be your
insubordination. And fear Allah and Allah teaches you and Allah knows everything.
283. And if you are on a journey, and you find not a scribe then let there be pledge with possession. And if in
between you one entrusts the other, then let he whom he trusted deliver his trust and fear Allah Who is his
Lord and conceal not evidence; and whosoever would conceal evidence, then his heart is sinful from inside,
and Allah knows your deeds.
284. To Allah belongs what” ever is in the heaven and whatever is in the earth; and if you disclose whatever is in
your heart or keep it hidden, Allah will call you to account for it; then He will forgive whomsoever He pleases
and punish whomsoever He pleases, and Allah is Potent over everything.
285. The Messenger believed in that which was sent down to him from his Lord and the believers all accepted Allah
and His angels and His Books and His messengers saying this, ‘that we do not differentiate in the matter of
having faith in any of His messengers’ and submitted that we heard and obeyed. Let there be your forgiveness,
O our Lord! And to you is our return.
286. Allah places no burden on any soul but to the extent of his strength whatever good it earned is useful for it
and whatever bad it earned is a loss for it. O our Lord! Catch not us if we forget or miss the mark! O our Lord!
And place not a heavy burden on us as you had placed on those before us. O our Lord! But not that burden on
us of which we have no strength to bear! And pardon us and forgive and have mercy on us. You are our
Master; then help us against the infidels.

guidance of Allah. That may be given to any one the like of that was given to you’, or anyone might argue you

pay it back to you, and in them there is someone, with whom if you keep in trust a single dinar then he will not

should say to people, ‘Be my bondmen leaving Allah; Yes he will say this, ‘Be men of Allah because you teach

wisdom then comes to you the Messenger confirming your Books, then assuredly you shall believe in him and
assuredly you help him. He said, ‘do you agree, and do you accept My heavy responsibility on it. All submitted
‘We did affirm, He said, ‘then be witness against one another and I am myself among witnesses with you.
82. Now whoso turns away after this, then they are the dis-obedients.

down to Ibrahim and Ismail and Ishaque and Yaqoob and his children and that which was given to Moosa and
Isa and prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them in believing and to Him we
have bowed down our necks.

world he shall be among the losers.
86. How Allah shall wish to guide such a people who disbelieved after believing and had borne witness that the
Messenger is true and to whom had come clear signs? And Allah guides not a people unjust.
87. Their meed is this that on them there is curse of Allah, and of angels and of men, all together.
88. They should abide thereunder. Neither the torment shall be lightened from over them and nor shall they be
respited.
89. But those who repented thereafter and amended themselves, then necessarily, Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

accepted and these are they who have gone astray.

94. Then after that, whose forges lie against Allah, those are the persons unjust.
95. Say you, ‘Allah is true therefore follow the religion of Ibraham Who was separate from every falsehood, and
was not of the polytheists.

blessing and a guide of all world.
97. Therein are clear sighs; the place where Ibraham stood and whosoever enters it, is in security. And for the
sake of Allah, the people is to perform pilgrimage to this House, who could find a way thither. And who denies,
then Allah is independent of entire world.
98. Say you, ‘O people of Book! Why not you accept the signs of Allah while your works are before Allah.
99. Say you, ‘O people of the Book! Why do you hinder those who accepted the faith from the path of Allah, you
desire to crook it and you are yourself witness thereof? And Allah is not unaware of your doings.
100. ‘O believers! If you obey some of the people of the Book, then they would render you infidels after your belief.
101. And how would you commit infidelity, (whereas) to you are recited the signs of Allah; and in your midst has
come the Messenger of Allah? And he who sought the support of Allah has been directed to a straight path.
102. ‘O believers! Fear Allah, as rightly He is to be feared, and do not die ever save as Muslims.
103. And hold fast, all together, by the rope of Allah, and be not divided among themselves. And remember Allah’s
favour upon you. Remember when there was enmity among you, He joined your hearts together then, by His
grace, you became brothers together and you were upon the brink of a pit of Fire, then He rescued you from
it; Thus Allah explains to you His signs; that haply you may act guidance.
104. And let there be such a group among you, that they may call towards goodness and command what is just and
forbid evil. And the very same attained to their goals.
105. And be not like those who were divided (in sections) and disagreed among themselves, after this that bright
signs had come to them and for them there is mighty torment.
106. On the day when some faces shall be white, and some black. Then those whose faces: have been blackened,
(they will be told) ‘did you become infidels after accepting faith? Then now taste the torment, the recompense
of your infidelity.
107. And as for those, whose faces are whitened, they are under the mercy of Allah; they shall abide in it.
108. These are the signs of Allah that We recite unto you correctly, and Allah intends not injustice to the people of
the worlds.

matters.
 
 
110. You are the best among all those nations appeared unto mankind, you command! To good, and forbid evil, and
keep faith unto Allah. Had the people of the Book believed, then it was good for them. Some of them are
Muslims and most of them are infidels.
111. They will not harm you save annoying; and if they fight with you, they will turn their backs from you, then
again they will not be helped.
112. Ignominy has been pitched on them, wherever they are, they shill get no security save a rope from Allah and a
rope from men, (they may get protection). They became worthy of the wrath of Allah and on them destitution
have been pitched. This is because they used to reject the signs of Allah and slay the prophets unjustly. This is
because they were disobedient and transgressors.
113. All are not alike. Among the people of the Book some are those who stand right, recite the signs of Allah in the
hours of night and prostrate.
114. They believe in Allah and the Last Day and command good and forbid evil and run for good works, and they
are righteous.
115. And those who will do good, their rights shall not be denied and Allah knows the God fearing.
116. Those who became infidels, their riches and children shall not avail them at all against Allah and they are the
men of hell and shall abide therein.
117. The example of that which they spend in the life of this world is like a wind in which there is intense cold; that
strikes the harvest of such a nation which wronged themselves, therefore it destroyed that, and Allah wronged
them not, but yes, they wrong unto their own souls.
118. ‘O believers! Do not make strangers as your confidants; they leave no stone unturned in harming you. They
yearn for what distresses you: Hostility appeared from their utterances and what they have concealed in their
breasts is yet greater. We have made you hear Our signs clearly, if you have wisdom.
119. Behold, it is you who love them, and they love you not. Though you believe in all the Books. And when they
meet you, they say, ‘we accepted faith’, and when they are alone, then they bite their fingertips at you out of
wrath. Say you, die in your passion’ Allah knows well the thoughts of the hearts.
120. Anything good befall you it vexes them; and an evil be fall you, then they are happy at it, and if you have
patience. And fear Allah, then their guile will not hurt you at all. Verily, their all doings are under the’
circumference of Allah.
121. And remember O beloved! When you came out from your house in the morning, I am assigning to the Muslims
their positions for battle. And Allah is All-Hearing All-Knowing.
122. When two of your groups intended Cowardice, but Allah is their supporter, and upon Allah should the Muslims
rely.
123. And verily, Allah did help you at Badr, when you were resourceless. So fear Allah that perhaps you may be
thankful.
124. When O beloved! You did say to Muslim ‘Is it not enough for you that your Lord should assist you by sending
down three thousand angels?
125. Yes, why not, if you have patience and fear God, and the infidels came upon you instantly, then your Lord will
send five thousand angels with marks for your help.
126. And this victory Allah did not make, save for pleasing you and so that your hearts might get rest with it, there
is no help except from Allah, the Dominant, the Wise.
127. In order that He might cut a portion of the infidels or abase them, so that they may go back dis-appointed.
128. This matter is not in your hand, whether He shows His graciousness to them for repent fence or torment them,
for they are unjust.
129. And to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth. He Forgives whomsoever and
torments whomsoever He pleases; and Allah is For giving Merciful.
130. ‘O believers! Devour not interest, doubled and redoubled; and fear Allah, in the hope that you may get
prosperity.
131. And Ward off the Fire which is already prepared for the infidels.
132. And remain obedient to Allah and Messenger, in the hope that you be shown mercy.
133. And run towards the forgiveness of your Lord and to such a paradise whose width covers all heavens and earth
is already prepared for those who are pious.
134. Those who spend in the path of Allah in prosperity and adversity and who restrain anger and who pardon men.
And virtuous people are dear to Allah.
135. And those who, when they have committed indecency or wronged their own souls, beg forgiveness for their
sins remembering Allah, and who forgives sins save Allah? And do not persist knowingly in what they have
done.
136. For such the recompense is their ‘Lord’s forgiveness and Gardens with rivers flowing underneath, they shall
 
 
remain for ever therein, and what an excellent reward is for workers.
137. Some systems have already been experimented, before you, then see, going through the earth, how was the
end of the beliers! (Who did deny)?
138. This is to state to people and to guide and is admonition to those who are pious.
139. And be not sluggish and neither be grieved, you are the very same who shall overcome if you have faith.
140. If any distress has come to you, then they too have already received a similar distress. These are the days in
which we have fixed turns for the people and that is because Allah may make one to distinguish the believes
and may assign some of you the position of martyrs. And Allah loves not the unjust.
141. And so that Allah may purify the Muslims and wipe out the infidels.
142. Are you in this supposition that you shall enter the paradise and yet Allah has not tested your warriors and
neither has experimented the steadfast?
143. And you used to long for death before meeting it, so now you have seen it with your eyes.
144. And Muhammad is only a Messenger. There have been many other messengers before him. Will you then, if he
departs or be slain, turn back on your heels? And he, who will turn back on his heels, shall not harm Allah at
all. And very soon Allah will recompense the thankful.
145. And no soul can die save by the leave of God – the time of all is already recorded. And whoso desires the
reward of the world, We gave to him of this, and he who desires the reward of the Hereafter, We give to him
of this, And it is very soon, We may recompense the thankful.
146. And many a prophet fought, with them there were many god-men, they fell not sluggish with the miseries they
faced in the path of Allah, and neither became weak nor gave in. And the steadfast are dear to Allah.
147. They did say nothing save this prayer, ‘O Our Lord! Forgive our sins and our excesses that we committed in our
affairs, and make firm our steps and help us against these disbelieving people.
148. So Allah gave them the reward of the world, and goodness of the reward of Hereafter. And the good-doers are
dear to Allah.
149. ‘O believers! If you follow the line of infidels, then they will turn you upon your heels, and you will be back
after losing.
150. Whereas Allah is your Patron; and He is the best Helper.
151. Soon We shall cast terror in the hearts of infidels, because they associated partners with Allah for which He
sent down not any understanding and their abode is Fire, and what is the evil abode of the unjust.
152. And verily, Allah did prove the truth of His promise to you when you were killing the infidels by His leave, until
when you showed weakness and quarrelled about the order and Dis-obeyed after He had shown you the thing
you desired for. Of you some one desired the world and of you some one desired the Hereafter, then He
turned your faces from them that He might; test you; and no doubt, He forgive you and Allah is Bounteous
over Muslims.
153. When you were going up and did not look back towards anyone and Our Messenger was calling you in another
group, therefore He gave you, sorrow in recompense for a sorrow, and forgave in order that you might not
grieve for what sent out of your hand and what befell you. And Allah is informed of your doings
154. Then after sorrow, He sent down to you slumber that had surrounded a party of you, and another party was
anxious about themselves, suspected of Allah unjustly; like the suspicion of Ignorance. They say, ‘Have we any
power in this affair’? Say you, ‘entire authority is of Allah. They conceal in their hearts that they reveal not unto
you; they say, ‘if we had any power, then we would not have been killed here.” Say you, ‘If you had been in
your houses, even then those for whom killing was already written would have gone forth to the place of their
slaughter; and in order that Allah might test the feelings of your breasts, and whatever is in your hearts might
purge it. Allah knows the thoughts of your hearts.
155. No doubt, those of you who turned back on the day when two armies met. It was Satan who made them slip
because of their certain actions, and surely Allah forgave them. Verily, Allah is Forgiving, Gentle.
156. ‘O believers! Be not like those infidels who told about their brothers when went on journey or on holy war; that
had they been with us, they would not have died and not been slain, in order that Allah may make it a cause of
regret in their hearts. And Allah gives life and causes death and Allah is seeing your works.
157. And undoubtedly, if you are slain in the way of Allah or die, then the forgiveness of Allah and His mercy are
better than their entire wealth.
158. And if you die or be slain, certainly you are to gather towards Allah.
159. Then, it is of the mercy of Allah that O beloved! You became gentle for them and if you had been hot headed,
hard hearted, then they certainly would have dispersed from your circle, so pardon them and intercede for
them and consult them in the affairs; and when you have made up your mind for any thing, then put your trust
in Allah. Undoubtedly the trustful are dear to Allah.
160. If Allah helps you, then none can overcome you; and He forsakes you, then who is such that can help you
 
 
again. And Muslim should have trust unto Allah alone.
161. It cannot be thought about any prophet that he hides away something and whatever he hides away, he shall
come with his hidden thing on the Day of Resurrection; then every soul shall be paid in full what it has earned,
and there shall be no injustice unto them.
162. Will then he who follows the pleasure of Allah be like him who has earned the wrath of Allah and his abode is
hell? And what a bad place of returns it is.
163. They are according to their ranks near Allah and Allah sees their works.
164. Undoubtedly, Allah did a great favour to the Muslims that in them from among themselves sent a Messenger
who recites unto them His signs and purifies them and teaches them the Book and wisdom, and necessarily
before that they were certainly in apparent error.
165. What! When any calamity reaches you, though double of which you had caused to reach (to them), you began
to say, “Whence it came”. Say you; ‘It is from your own side’. Undoubtedly Allah can do everything.
166. And that calamity which befell you on the day the two armies had met was by Allah’s leave, and thus He might
make known the believers.
167. And that He might make one to distinguish the hypocrites and it was said to them, “come, fight in the way of
Allah or drive out the enemy”. They said, “If we knew fighting, then certainly we would have sided you.” And
they on that day were nearer to apparent infidelity than to expressed faith. They say with their mouths, what is
not in their hearts. And Allah knows what they are concealing.
168. Those who said about their brothers and while them selves remained behind, ‘Had they obeyed us, they would
not have been killed.’ Say you, ‘then avert your own death if you are truthful.’
169. And those who have been slain in the way of Allah never think of them as dead; but they are alive with their
Lord, get their subsistence.
170. They are happy because of that which Allah has bestowed upon them of His Bounty and are rejoicing for their
successors who have not yet joined them that on them there is not any fear, nor any grief.
171. They rejoice at the favour of Allah and His bounty, and that Allah wastes not the reward of Muslims.
172. Those who responded to the call of Allah and Messenger after the wound had smitten them There is great
reward for their righteous and reverent people.
173. Those to whom people said, ‘the people have gathered against you, ‘therefore fear them; but this increased
their faith and said, ‘Allah is sufficient for us and what an excellent Disposer of Affairs.
174. Hence, they returned with a favour from Allah and His Bounty, no evil touched them and followed the pleasure
of Allah. And Allah is of great, Bounty.
175. It is only the Satan that threatens you of his friends: so fear them not and fear Me if you have faith.
176. And (O beloved) you grieve not of them at all, who run after infidelity, they will not harm Allah at all. And Allah
intends not to assign any position for them in the Hereafter and for them, there is great torment.
177. Those who purchased infidelity for faith will not harm Allah at all, and for them is the painful torment.
178. And let never the unbelievers suppose that the respite, We grant them is some thing good for them. Certainly,
We grant them respite only because they may further increase in sin. And for them is the degrading torment.
179. Allah is not to leave the Muslims in the present state of affairs in which you are, until He separates unpure from
the pure. (Wicked from the good) And it is not befitting to the dignity of Allah that O general people! He let you
know the unseen. Yes, Allah chooses from amongst His messengers whom He pleases. Then believe in Allah
and His messengers. And if you accept faith and fear, then there is great reward for you.
180. And let not those who are niggardly with respect to what Allah has given them out of His bounty think that it is
good for them; on the contrary it is bad for them. Soon that for which they were niggardly shall be their
necklace on the Day of Resurrection. And only Allah is the Heir of heavens and earth and Allah is aware of your
doings.
181. Undoubtedly Allah heard those who said, “Allah is needy and we are rich.” Now We shall put their sayings and
their slaying of the prophets unjustly in writing; and We shall say, ‘taste the torment of the fire.’
182. This is the compensation of what your hands have sent forth. And Allah does not oppress their bondsmen.
183. Those who say, ‘Allah has covenanted with us that we believe not in any messenger until he brings an order of
such sacrifice which the fire consumes; say you, ‘Many messengers came to you before me bearing clear signs
and with this order which you speak of, then why did you kill them, if you are truthful?
184. Then O beloved! If they belie you even, so the messengers before you, who had come bearing clear signs and
the scriptures and the shining Book have already been belied.
185. Every soul is to taste the death; and you will get your compensation in full only on the Day of Resurrection.
Whosoever is saved from the Fire and made to enter into Paradise, attained to his goal. And the life of this
world is but the goods of deception.
186. Undoubtedly, you shall certainly be tested in your property and in your lives. And undoubtedly, you shall
 
 
certainly hear a good deal of bad things from the people of the Book before you and from idolaters. But if you
endure and guard yourselves (against evils), then it is the work of strong determination.
187. And remember when Allah took a covenant from those who were given the Book that, ‘you shall necessarily
make it known to the people and congeal it not, but they threw it behind their backs, and took a mean price in
Exchange of it, then how an evil Purchasing it is!
188. Never think of those who rejoice on their doings and wish that they may be praised without doing. Never think
of such people away from the torment and for them is the painful torment.
189. And to Allah belongs the kingdom of the heavens and earth; and Allah is Potent over every thing.
190. Undoubtedly, in the creation of heavens and earth and in the mutual alternation of night and day, there are
signs for men of understanding.
191. Who remember Allah standing and sitting and lying on their sides, and contemplate in the creation of heavens
and earth; (saying) “O our Lord! You have not made it invain, Hallowed be You, You save us from the torment
of the Hell.
192. ‘O our Lord! Verily whomsoever you cause to enter the Hell, him You have surely humiliated, and the unjust
have no helpers.
193. ‘O our Lord! We heard a proclaimer that he calls for believing, that believe unto your Lord; then we believed. O
our Lord! Forgive us our sins and wipe off us our evils and cause us to die along with the righteous.
194. ‘O our Lord! And give us that what You have promised to us through Your Messengers; and disgrace us not on
the Day of Resurrection. Undoubtedly You do not break the promise.
195. Then their Lord heard their prayer that I certainly waste not the labour of any worker from amongst you, be a
male or female, you are one among yourselves. Hence those who emigrated and were driven out from their
homes, and were tortured in My way and fought and were killed. I shall surely wipe out all their sins and shall
surely cause them to enter into the gardens beneath which flow rivers, a reward from Allah. And with Allah
only there is good reward.
196. ‘O Listener! Let not deceive you the strutting about of the infidels in the cities.
197. A brief enjoyment; their abode is the Hell and what an evil bed!
198. But those who fear their Lord, for them there are gardens beneath which flow rivers. They shall abide therein;
an entertainment from Allah and that, which is with Allah, is still better for the righteous.
199. And undoubtedly, some among the men of the Book are such that they believe in Allah and in what has been
sent to you and what have been sent down to them, their hearts are bent towards Allah, do not accept mean
price for the signs of Allah. These are those whose reward is with their Lord; and Allah is swift in taking
account.
200. ‘O believers! Be patient, and excel in patience with the enemies and guard Islamic country on the border and
remain fearing Allah that haply you may be successful.

Revealed at: Madinah
Total Verses: 176

ALLAH in the name of The Most Affectionate, the Merciful.

1. ‘O people! Fear your Lord Who created you from a single soul and made its mate from within it, and from that
pair spread many men and women and fear Allah in Whose name you ask for (your rights) and pay attention to
the ties of relationship. Undoubtedly. Allah is watching you all time.
2. And give the orphans their property and do not exchange dirty for the clean and consume not their property
mixing it with your property. Undoubtedly, it is a great sin.
3. And if you apprehend that you will not be able to do justice to orphan girls, then marry such other women as
seem good to you, two, three, four, but if you are afraid that you will not be able to keep two wives on equal
terms, then marry one only or captives whom you own. This is nearer to keeping you away from doing
injustice.
4. And give the women their dowries willingly. But if they, of their own pleasure of heart remit something of it to
 
 
you, then consume it with taste and pleasure.
5. And give not to the unwise their property you have, which Allah has made a means of your living and feed
them therewith and clothe them and speak to them good words.
6. And remain testing the orphans, until they are able to marry; then if you find them of right understanding,
deliver to them their property and consume it not in extravagance and in such haste that they should not reach
their maturity. And whose is not needy, let him abstain and whoso is needy, let him consume it with equity. But
when you deliver them their property, then take witnesses against them. And Allah is sufficient in taking
account.
7. For men there is share in what their parents and relatives have left behind, and for women there is share in
what their parents and relatives have left behind, be the bequest little or be it much, it is a share estimated,
determined.
8. But if at the time of division, the relatives and the orphans and the needy come, then give them too something
therefrom and speak to them good words.
9. And let those fears, who if they had to leave behind them weak offspring, would have been afraid for them, so
they should be afraid of Allah and speak the upright speech.
10. Those who consume the property of orphans unjustly, they fill in their belies with fire only, and they shall soon
enter into the flaming fire.
11. Allah commands you concerning your children, the share of male is equal to the share of two females; then if
there be daughters only, though more than two, then for them is two third of what is left, and if there be only
one daughter, for her is one half. And for each of the parents of the deceased is one sixth of what is left, if
there be a child of the deceased, but if he has no child and leaves parents, then for the mother is one third;
but if there be his many sisters and brothers, then for the mother is one sixth, after any bequest which has
been made and debts. Your fathers and your sons, you know not which of them will be more profitable to you.
This is fixed proportion from Allah. Undoubtedly Allah is All Knowing, Wise.
12. And for you is one-half of what is left by your wives, if they have no issue (child) but if they have issue (child),
then you have one fourth of what they leave after (paying) any bequest made by them and the debts. And for
the women is one fourth of what you leave if you have no issue (child); but if you have issue (child), then for
them is one-eight of what you leave after (paying) any bequest made by you and the debts. And if the heritage
of any such male or female who leave behind nothing, neither parents nor children is to be divided and from
mother side he or she has brother or sister, then for each one of them is one sixth. Then if the sister and
brother be more than one, then all are sharer in one-third, after (payment of the bequest of the deceased and
debts in which the deceased would not have caused any harm. This is an injunction from Allah and Allah is All
Knowing, Gentle.
13. These are the limits of Allah and whoso obeys Allah and His Messenger; Allah will make him enter Gardens
beneath which flow rivers will abide therein. And this is the great success.
14. And whose disobeys Allah and His Messenger and transgresses His all limits; Allah will cause him to enter the
Fire, in which he will abide and for him is degrading torment.
15. And those of your women who commit adultery; take the evidence of four males specially from amongst you
against them; then again if they give evidence then confine those women to the houses until death take them
or Allah envisages some way for them.
16. And those males, female of you commit such act, torture them, then again if they repent and amend, then
leave them alone. Undoubtedly Allah is most Relenting, Merciful.
17. The repentance whose acceptance has been under taken by Allah with His own Grace is only for those who do
evil ignorantly and then again repent soon after. To wards such people Allah turns with His Mercy; and Allah is
Knowing, Wise.
18. And that repentance is not neither of those who continue in doing evil until when death comes to anyone of
them, he says, ‘now I repent’ nor for those who die as infidels. For them We have prepared a painful torment.
19. ‘O believers! It is not lawful for you to be heir of the women forcibly, and prevent them not with this design
that you may take away part of what you had given them as dower except in this shape that they commit an
act of flagrant indecency and treat with them fairly; then if you dislike them, it is likelihood that you may dislike
a thing and wherein Allah has placed much good.
20. And if you desire to change one wife for another and you have already given her a heap of treasure; then take
not anything thereof. Will you take it by slander and with manifest sin?
21. How you shall take it when each of you has already become unveiled before one another and they have taken
from you a most firm covenant?
22. And do not marry those women whom your fathers have married, except what has already passed.
Undoubtedly, that is an act of indecency and wrath and an evil way.
 
 
23. Forbidden to you are your mothers, and your daughters and sisters and your father’s sisters and mother’s
sisters and your brother’s daughters and your sister’s daughters, and your mothers who have given suck to you
and your foster sisters and the mothers of your wives and daughters (your step daughters) who are in your
care from the wives with whom you had intercourse but if you had not intercourse with them, then there is no
harm in their daughters, and the wives of your sons who are of your loins and to have two sisters together
except what has already passed. Undoubtedly. Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
24. And forbidden to you are the women having husbands save the women of infidels who come in your
possession. This is the prescription of Allah unto you and the remaining besides those are lawful for you; so
that you seek them in exchange of your properties bringing them in bondage (through marriage) and not
desiring for lust. Therefore, as to those women whom you wish to marry, give them their fixed dowries. And
there is no sin in what you mutually agree! Upon after fixation. Undoubtedly, Allah is Knowing, Wise.
25. And amongst you one who cannot marry free believing women due to insufficient means; then let him marry
such of the believing handmaids who are the possession of your hands. And Allah knows your faith very well
the one of you is from the other, therefore, marry them with the leave of their masters and give them their
dowries according to convention bringing them into bondage (through marriage), not desiring for lust, and nor
making lovers; when they come under bondage and again commit any act of indecency, then on them the
punishment is half of that, for free women. This is for him who of you are afraid of adultery and it is better for
you to have patience. And Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
26. Allah desires to explain to you His commandments and to tell you the ways of those before you and to turn to
you with His Mercy. And Allah is Knowing, Wise.
27. And Allah desires to turn to you with His Mercy, and those who follow their lust desire that you should stray far
away from the right path.
28. Allah desires to lighten unto you, and man has been created weak.
29. ‘O believers! Consume not unjustly the property of one another among yourselves except it be a trade by your
mutual consent. And kill not yourselves. Undoubtedly, Allah is Merciful to you.
30. And whosoever shall do so with excessiveness and injustice, then We shall make him enter into Fire soon: and
that is easy for Allah.
31. If you keep away from major sins that are forbidden to you, then We will forgive your other sins and make you
enter a place of honour.
32. And covet not that whereby Allah has made one of you excel over the other. For men there is share from their
earning, and for women there is share from their earning. And ask Allah for His Grace. Undoubtedly, Allah
knows every thing.
33. And for every one We have made heirs of the property that is left by parents and relations, and those with
whom you have sworn compact give to them their share, undoubtedly every thing is before Allah.
34. Men are incharge over women, because Allah has made one of them excel over another, and because men
have expended their wealth over them, so the virtuous women are submissive, they keep watch in the absence
of husband as Allah commanded to watch. And as to those women whose disobedience you fear, then
admonish them and sleep apart from them, and beat them (lightly), then if they come under your command,
then seek not any way of excess against them. Undoubtedly, Allah is Exalted, Great.
35. And if you fear a dispute between husband and wife, then appoint an arbiter from the side of the family of man
and an arbiter from the side of the family of woman, if these two will desire reconciliation, then Allah will cause
unity between them. Undoubtedly, Allah is knowing, Aware.

His bounty. And We have prepared for the infidels a degrading torment.

and whose companion has become Satan, then what an evil companion is he?
39. And what was the harm, if they would have faith in Allah and the Last Day and spent out of what Allah has
given them? And Allah knows them.
40. Allah does not do injustice even to the weight of an atom, and if there be a good deed, He doubles it and gives
from Himself immense reward.
41. Then how shall it be, when We bring up a witness from every nation, and O beloved Muhammad! We will bring
you as a witness and a guardian against all those.
42. ‘On that day those who disbelieved and dis-obeyed the Messenger would wish that if the earth were levelled
after burying them in it, and they could not be able to conceal; anything from Allah.
 
 
43. ‘O believers! Approach not prayer while you are intoxicated, until you have so much sense that what you say,
you understand, nor when you are unclean without taking a bath except when you are travelling; and if you
are ailing, or on a journey, or any one of you comes from privy, or you have touched women and you do not
find water, then take some pure earth and wipe there with your faces and your hands. Undoubtedly, Allah is
Pardoning, Forgiving.
44. Have you not seen those who were given a portion of t he Book? They buy error and intend that you too may
lose the way.
45. And Allah knows well your enemies. And Allah is sufficient as Guardian, and Allah is sufficient as Helper.
46. Some of the Jews pervert words from their places; and say, ‘We have heard and we disobey, and hear you,
continue not making us hear, ‘and say RAINA twisting their tongues and taunting in Faith. And if they say that
we have heard and obeyed, and sir hear our talks and sir look at us, it would have been better for them and
more upright. But Allah has cursed them for their infidelity, so they believe not, save a little.
47. ‘O people of the Book! Believe in what We have sent down confirming the Book with you, before We deface
some faces and turn them on their backs or curse them as We cursed the people of the Sabt (Saturday). And
the decree of Allah is bound to be carried out.
48. Undoubtedly, Allah forgives not that infidelity be done with Him and whatever is less than infidelity forgives
whomsoever He pleases, And whoso associates partners with Allah has forged a great sin.
49. Have you not observed those who declare themselves to be pure? Nay, It is Allah Who purifies whomsoever He
pleases, and they shall not be wronged a single date-thread.
50. Behold, how they are forging lie against Allah. And that in itself a sufficient sin.
51. Have you not observed those who were given a portion of the Book, believes in idols and demons (Satan) and
say about infidels, ‘these are more guided on the way than Muslims.
52. These are they whom Allah has cursed. And he whom Allah curses, you shall never find for him any helper.
53. Have they some share in the kingdom? It is so then they would not give mankind a speck.
54. Or do they envy the people for what Allah has given them out of His bounty? Then We gave the Book and
wisdom to the children of Abraham and granted them a great kingdom.
55. Then some of them believed in him and some others fumed faces from him and sufficient is Hell, as blazing
fire.
56. Those who have rejected Our signs, We shall soon cause them to enter Fire. Whenever their skins shall be fully
burnt up, We shall change them with other skins, that they may taste the torment. Undoubtedly, Allah is
Dominant Wise.
57. And those who believed and did good deeds, We shall soon make them enter Gardens beneath which rivers
flow they shall abide therein for ever. For them there are pure wives, And We cause them to enter a place
where there shall be shade only shade.
58. Undoubtedly, Allah commends you to pay back the trusts to their owners, and that when you judge amongst
people, judge with justice. Undoubtedly how well Allah admonishes you, verily Allah Hears Sees.
59. ‘O believers! Obey Allah and Obey the messenger, and those who have power of command amongst you, then
again if there may arise any difference amongst you, refers it to Allah and His messenger, if you have faith in
Allah and the Last Day. This is better, and its end is best.
60. Have you not observed those, who claim that they believe in what has been sent down to you, and what has
been send down before you? Then they wish to make the devil their arbiter, whereas they were commanded to
reject him wholly. And Satan desires to lead them far astray.
61. And when it is said to them! Come towards the Book sent down by Allah and the messenger then you shall see
that the hypocrites turn away from you averting their faces.
62. How shall it be, when any affliction befalls them, for what their hands have sent forth? Then O beloved! They
come to you swearing by Allah that our object was kindness and concord only.
63. Allah knows what is in their hearts then overlook them, and admonish them and say to them convincing words
concerning their affairs.
64. And We have not sent any messenger, but that he should be obeyed by Allah’s will. And if when they do
injustice unto their souls, then O beloved! They should come to you and then beg forgiveness of Allah and the
messenger should intercede for them then surely, they would find Allah Most Relenting, Merciful.
65. Then O beloved! By your Lord, they shall not be Muslims until they make you judge in all disputes among
themselves, then they find not any impediment in their hearts concerning whatever you decide, and accept
from the eve of their hearts.
66. And if We had made it obligatory on them; that ‘kill yourselves and go out leaving your hearth and home, then
only a few of them would have done so; and if they do of what they are advised, then it was better for them
and stronger in establishing faith.
 
 
67. And if it had been so then We would have certainly given them a great reward from ourselves.
68. And We would surely have guided them to the straight path.
69. And he who obeys Allah and His messenger then he will get the company of those who have been blessed by,
Allah, viz. the prophets, and the truthful, and martyrs and the righteous, and what good companions are they.

71. ‘O believers! Take precaution, then march forth towards enemies in bits or go forth all together.
72. And among you some one is he, who will indeed tarry behind, then if any calamity comes to you he says, It
was Allah’s favour on me that I was not present with them.
73. And if you get bounty of Allah, then he would certainly say, as if there was no friendship between you and him,
If I would have gained a great gain.
74. Then let them fight in the way of Allah who sell the worldly life for the Hereafter; and whoso fights in the way
of Allah, then he is slain or be He victorious then soon We shall give him a great reward.
75. And what happened to you that you fight not in the way of Allah, and for the weak men and women and
children who are praying, ‘O our Lord! Take us out of this town whose people are unjust and give us any
defender from Yourself and give us any helper from Yourself.
76. The believers fight in the way of Allah and the infidels fight in the way of the devil, then fight against the
friends of Satan’s undoubtedly, the Satan’s strategy is weak.
77. Have you not observed those to whom it was said ‘restrain your hands, and establish prayer and pay the
specified charity (Zakat), then when fighting was made obligatory on them, then some of them began to fear
people as they should fear Allah or even more than that, And said they ‘O our Lord! Why have you prescribed
fighting on us, You, would have allowed us to live for a short period’. Say you ‘the enjoyment of the world is
little and the Hereafter is better for the god fear, and you shall not be wronged a single thread (a least).
78. Wherever you may be, death will overtake you, though if you be in strong forts. And if some good reaches
them, then they say, ‘this is from Allah and if some bad reaches them, then they say, ‘This has come from you.
Say you, ‘All is from Allah. Then what happened to them, they seem not to understand anything.
79. ‘O Listener! Whatsoever good reaches to you is from Allah, and whatsoever bad reaches to you is from
yourself. And O beloved! We have sent you, as a Messenger to all mankind and Allah is sufficient Witness.
80. Whoso obeys the messenger, has indeed obeyed Allah, and whoso turns away his face, then We have not sent
you to save them.
81. And they say, ‘We have obeyed, but when they go forth from your presence, then a group of them makes plan
in the night against what they had said; and Allah writes down their night plan, then O beloved! You overlook
them and trust in Allah. And sufficient is Allah as a Disposer of affairs.
82. Then do they not ponder in Quran and if it had been from other than Allah, then they would surely have found
therein much discrepancy?
83. And when there comes to them any matter of satisfaction or of fear, they spread it about, and if they had
referred it towards the Messenger and their men of authority, then surely they would have known its reality
from those who investigate and can draw conclusion. And if there had not been the grace of Allah and His
Mercy upon you, then surely you would have followed the devil save a few of you.
84. Then O beloved! Fight in the way of Allah, you shall not be taxed except for yourself and persuade the Muslims
it is likelihood that Allah would withhold the fierceness of infidels. And the force of Allah is strongest and His
torment hardest.
85. Whoso makes a good intercession, there is a share in it for him and whoso makes an evil intercession, and
there is a share in it for him. And Allah has power over everything.
86. And when you are greeted with any word of greeting then, greet him back with a better word than it or return
the same. Undoubtedly, Allah is Reckoner of everything.
87. Allah is beside whom there is none to be worshiped. And He will certainly gather you on the Day of
Resurrection of which there is no doubt. And who is more truthful in his word than Allah.
88. And what has happened to you that you are divided into two parties regarding hypocrites? And Allah has upset
them for their deeds. Do you desire to guide him whom Allah has led? Astray? And whom Allah leads astray
you shall never find a way for him.
89. They wish that you should also become dis-believers as they became disbeliveers, so that you may all become
equals, then take not anyone of them as your friend unless they leave their homes and ‘hearths in the way of
Allah again if they turn faces, then seize them and kill them where ever you find them and take not any of
them as friends or helpers.
90. Except those who are connected with such a people between whom and you there is a pact, or they come to
you because their hearts have no strength to fight against you or fight their own people. And if Allah had so
pleased, He would certainly have given them control over you, then they would have surely fought with you. So
 
 
if they keep aloof from you and fight you not, and make you an offer of peace, then Allah has opened no way
for you against them.
91. Now you will find some such other who desire, that they may be safe from you and may be safe from their
people too, whenever their people turn them towards mischief they fall head long into it then if they do not
keep aloof from you and nor offer you peace and withhold not their hands, seize them and kill them whereever you find. And these are against whom We have given you clear authority.
92. And it is not befitting Muslims to shed the blood of Muslim save by a mischance and he who kills any Muslim
unknowingly, then he has to free a Muslim slave and blood compensation to be paid to the family of the
deceased but that they forego. Then if he is from a people who is your enemy and he is himself a Muslim then
there is only the freeing of a Muslim slave, and if he is from a people between whom and you there is a pact,
then the blood compensation be delivered to his family and the freeing of a slave Muslims, but whose hand
does not reach to this (Finds no means to free a slave Muslim) then he should fast for two consecutive months
this is his repentance near Allah. And Allah is knowing. Wise.
93. And whoso kills a Muslim wilfully, then his recompense is Hell, abiding therein for a long time and Allah’s wrath
is upon him and has cursed him and has prepared for him a great torment.
94. ‘O believers! When you march forth for a crusade then make proper investigation and he who greets you, say
not to him, ‘you are not Muslim, you seek the goods of living world, then with Allah there are spoils abundant.
You too were such before, and then Allah conferred His favour on you; so you are duty bound to investigate.
Undoubtedly, Allah is aware of what you do.
95. Those Muslims who sit aloof from the fighting without excuse and those who strive in the way of Allah with
their wealth and lives are not equal Allah has exalted in rank those who strive with their wealth and lives over
those who sit aloof. And Allah has promised good to all And Allah has preferred the strivers over the sitters by
a great reward.
96. From Him, ranks and forgiveness and mercy. And Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
97. Those whose souls are taken out by angels while they were wronging themselves the angels say to them, ‘what
were you in’? They say ‘We were weak in the land.’ they say ‘Was not Allah’s earth spacious so that you might
have emigrated in it? Then the abode of such people is Hell. And an evil returning place is that.
98. Except those who are suppressed, men and women and children who are unable to devise a plan or of finding
any way.
99. Then it is likelihood that as for such Allah will pardon. And Allah is Pardoning. Forgiving
100. And he who will come out leaving his home and hearth in the way of Allah will find abundant place and space
in the earth. And he who comes out from his home, emigrating cowards Allah and messenger, then death
overtakes him, then his reward lies on Allah And Allah is Forgiving. Merciful.
101. And when you journey in the land, there is no sin of you that you offer your some prayer by shortening it, if
you fear that the infidels will afflict you. Undoubtedly, the infidels are your open enemies.
102. And O beloved! (Prophet) when you are amidst them, then lead them in prayer, then let a party of them be
with you and let them take their arms, then when they have finished their prostrations, then moving from there
they should go to your rear; and now let other party who had not participated in the prayer at that time, come
and be your follower in the prayer and let them also take their means of protection and weapons; the infidels
wish that in case you become negligent of your arms and your baggage, then once they may fall upon you.
And there is no fault upon you, if you are in trouble due to rain or you are sick that you put aside your arms,
but you carry your means of protection with you. Undoubtedly, Allah has prepared for the infidels a degrading
torment.
103. Then when you have finished your prayer, remember Allah, standing, sitting and dying or your sides; then
when you are secure, establish prayer as usual; undoubtedly, the prayer is a fixed time obligation on Muslims.
104. And slacken not in seeking infidels, if you are troubled; and you hope from Allah what they hope not. And Allah
is knowing, Wise.
105. ‘O beloved! (Prophet) undoubtedly, We have sent down to you the Book with truth that you may judge
amongst people as you are shown by Allah. And quarrel not from the side of deceivers.
106. And seek forgiveness of Allah. Undoubtedly Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
107. And dispute not for those who deceive their souls. Undoubtedly, Allah loves not any big deceitful sinner.
108. They hide from men, but hide not from Allah and Allah is with them when they design in their hearts that thing
which is disliked by Allah. And Allah has encompassed their doings.
109. (Do you hear?) it is you who have contended on behalf of them in the life of this world; then who will contend
on behalf of them with Allah on the Day of Judgement or who will be their pleader.
110. And whoso does evil or wrongs his own soul, thereafter seeks forgiveness of Allah shall find Allah Forgiving, s
Merciful.
 
 
111. And whoso earns sin, then his earning is against his own soul only. And Allah is knowing and Wise.
112. And whoso earns, a fault or sin, then casts it upon any innocent, certainly he has borne a calumny and a clear
sin.
113. And O beloved! (Prophet) If there had not been the grace and mercy of Allah upon you, then some people of
them had wished to defraud you. And they are misleading themselves only and they will not hurt you in
anything. And Allah has sent down to you the Book and Wisdom and has taught to you what you did not know
and great is the grace of Allah upon you.
114. There is no good in most of their counsels but whoso commands charity or good things or making peace
amongst people. And whoso does this for seeking the approvals of Allah, We shall soon give him a great
reward.
115. And whoso opposes the Messenger after the right way has become clear and follows a way other than the way
of Muslims, We shall leave him on his own conditions and shall cause him to enter Hell; and what is an evil
place of returning.
116. Allah forgives not that anyone be associated with Him as partner but whatever is below that He forgives to
whomsoever He pleases. And whoso associates with Him any partner has indeed strayed far away.
117. These polytheists worship not besides Allah but some females and worship not but a rebel Satan (devil).
118. Whom Allah has cursed. And he said, ‘I swear, I will certainly take some fixed portion of Your bondmen.
119. I swear, I will certainly lead them astray and certainly I will excite in them desires and will certainly say to them
that they would cut the ears of cattle and will certainly bid to them that they would alter the creation of Allah.
And he, who takes Satan for a friend beside Allah, has suffered a manifest loss.
120. Satan makes them promises and stirs in them desires, ‘and Satan makes them not promises but deception.
121. Their destination is Hell; they will not find a place to escape therefrom.
122. And those who believed and did good deeds, soon We shall cause them to enter gardens beneath which flow
rivers abiding therein for ever. Promise of Allah is true and whoso word is more truthful than Allah.
123. Neither the work depends on your wishful thinking, nor on the desires of the people of the Book, whoso will do
evil shall be requited thereof and he shall not find, besides Allah any protector or helper.
124. And whose will do some good deeds, may be a male or female and be a Muslim, then they shell enter Paradise,
and they shall not be wronged a bit.
125. And whose religion is; better than he who submits his face to Allah and he is a doer of good and follows the
faith of Ibraham who was separate from every falsehood? And Allah took Ibraham for His fast friend.
126. And to Allah belongs all that is in the heavens, and all at is in the earth. And over every thing Allah has control.
127. And they ask you your verdict concerning women. Say them, Allah gives verdict to you concerning them and
that which is recited to you in Quran concerning the orphan girls whom you give not what is prescribed for
them, and turn your faces from marrying them, and concerning the weak children, and concerning this that you
maintain justice towards orphans. And whatever good you do, then Allah is aware of it.
128. And if any woman be afraid of high-handedness or disregard from her husband, then there is no sin on them
that they may reconcile among themselves and reconciliation is best. And the hearts are entangled into
greediness. And if you do good and be god- fearing then Allah is aware of your doings.
129. And it would never be possible for you that you keep women on equal footing, how ever much you may desire
it then this should not be the case that you should incline wholly towards one side so that you leave other
candling in the midst. And if you do good and be god fearing then undoubtedly, Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
130. And if they both separate, then Allah will make each of you independent from the other out of His bounty And
Allah is Bountiful Wise.
131. And to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth. And undoubtedly, Allah has
enjoined those who were given the Book before you and you too that remain fearing Allah. But if you commit
infidelity then undoubtedly, to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth. And Allah
is Carefree All-Praised.
132. And to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth. And Allah is sufficient as real
Doer.

or of your relations. Against whom you be a witness, he be a rich or be a poor, in any case Allah has more
power than any one over them, therefore follow not passion lest you may be far away from justice; and if you
distort or turn your face, then Allah is aware of your doings.
136. ‘O believers! Keep faith in Allah and His Messenger and the Book which He has sent down upon His Messenger
 
 
and the Book which has been sent down before. And who denies Allah and His angels and His Books and His
Messengers and the Last Day, then certainly he strayed far way.
137. Undoubtedly, those who accepted faith, then became infidels, then again accepted faith, then became infidels
then after increased in infidelity, Allah will never forgive them nor will show them the way.
138. Give tidings to the hypocrites that for them is the painful torment.
139. Those who take infidels for friends instead of Muslims, Do they seek honour with them then all honour is for
Allah.
140. And undoubtedly Allah has already sent down to you in the Book that, when you hear the signs of Allah being
denied and is being ridiculed, then sit not with them until they engage in some other conversation, otherwise
you would be like them too. Undoubtedly, Allah will gather hypocrites and infidels all in Hell.
141. Those who use to watch your position, then if you get victory from Allah, they say, ‘Were We not with you, and
if the infidels had a share, then they say to them, ‘Had we not control over you?’ and we protected you from
the Muslims. Then Allah will decide between you all on the Day of Judgement. And Allah will not make a way
for the infidels against Muslims.
142. Undoubtedly, the hypocrites are likely to deceive Allah in their own conjecture and it is He who will kill them
making them negligent, and when they stand up for prayer they stand up with a defeated soul (lazily) making a
show to the people and remember not Allah but little.
143. They are wavering in the midst neither of this side nor of that. And whom Allah leads astray, you shall not then
find a way for him.
144. ‘O believers! Take not infidels for friends except Muslims. Do you wish that you may provide clear proof for
Allah against you?
145. Undoubtedly, the hypocrites are in the lowest section of the Hell, and you shall never get any helper for them.
146. But those who repented, and mended (themselves) and, hold fast by the rope of Allah and made their religion
purely; for Allah, then these are with the Muslims. And soon Allah will give a great reward to Muslims.

Aware.

‘some we believe and other some we deny,’ and desire to envisage a way between believing and disbelieving.
151. They are the infidels in truth and We have already prepared a degrading torment for the infidels.
152. And those who have believed in Allah and in all of His Messengers and have made no distinction between any
of them in believing to them, soon Allah will give their reward and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
153. ‘O beloved! (Prophet) The people of the Book ask you to bring down a book upon them from heaven but they
have already asked Moses a greater thing than this, for said. “Show us Allah openly”. Then thunder overtook
them for their sins. Then they took the calf after clear signs had come to them. But We pardoned even that
and We gave Moses a clear dominance
154. Then We raised the Tur (Mountain) over them for taking convenant with them and said to them, ‘enter the
gate prostrating”, and said to them. ‘Transgress not in the matter of Sabbath’ (Saturday of the Jews) and We
took from them a firm convenant.
155. Then! We cursed them because of their breaking the convenant and that they denied the signs of Allah, and
slaying unjustly the prophets and for their saying there are covers on our hearts’. But Allah has sealed their
hearts because of their infidelity. So that they do not accept faith but little of them.
156. And for this that they committed infidelity and raised a tremendous calumny over Marium.
157. And for their saying. We slew the Messiah. Jesus son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah’, Whereas they slew him
not and neither crucified him, but one was made like him for them. And those who are differing about him,
certainly, they are in doubt regarding’ him. They have not the least knowledge about it, but merely following a
conjecture, and undoubtedly, they slew him’ not.
158. But Allah raised him up towards Himself, and Allah is Dominant, Wise.
159. There is not any one of the people of the Book, who will not believe in him before his death, and he will be a
witness against them on the Day of judgement.
160. Then on account of great injustice of the Jews, We made unlawful for them some of those pure things that
were lawful for them, and because of that, they kept away many from the way of Allah.
161. And because they took usury whereas they were prohibited from it, and they consumed people’s wealth
unjustly, and those of them who became infidels, We have prepared a painful torment for them.
162. Yes, but those of them who are firm in knowledge and believe, they believe in that which (O beloved prophet)
has been sent down to you and that which was sent down before you, and the establishers of prayer and giver
 
 
of poor due (Zakat) and the believers in Allah and the Last Day, to such, We shall soon give a great reward.
163. Undoubtedly, O beloved Prophet! We have sent to you the revelation as We sent revelation to Nuh and the
Prophets after him, and We sent revelation to Abraham, and Ismail and Ishaque and Yaqoob and his children
and Issa and Ayub and Yunus and Haroon and Suleman. And We gave to Daud the Book Zaboor (Psalms).
164. And to Messengers whom We have already mentioned to you before and to those messengers whom We have
not mentioned to you. And Allah infects spoke to Moosa.
165. The Messengers bearing good tidings and warning, so that mankind might not have any excuse against Allah
after the Messengers. And Allah is Dominant, Wise.
166. But O beloved Prophet! Allah is witness to that what He has sent down to you, He has sent it down with His
knowledge and the angels are witnesses, And Allah is Sufficient as a witness.
167. Those who committed infidelity and kept others away from the way of Allah, undoubtedly they strayed far
away.
168. Undoubtedly, who committed infidelity and transgressed. Allah will never forgive them, nor will show them any
way.
169. But the way of the hell, that they will abide therein for ever. And this is easy for Allah.
170. ‘O people! The Messenger has come to you with truth from your Lord, then believes in him for your own good.
And if you commit infidelity, then undoubtedly, to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and in the earth.
And Allah is knowing, Wise.
171. ‘O people of the Book! Exceed not in your religion, and do not say of Allah any thing but truth. The Messiah
Issa son of Marium is only the Messenger of Allah and His word that was sent to Mary and a spirit from Him.
Then believe in Allah and His Messengers and do not say, ‘three’. Refrain for your own good. Allah is the only
one God. Far is it from His Holiness that He should have a son. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and
whatever is in the earth. And Allah is Sufficient, as real Doer.
172. Messiah scorns not to be a bondman of Allah nor do the near one angel. And whoso scorns from His bondage
and is proud, then soon He will gather them all towards Himself.
173. Then those who accepted faith and did good deeds, after paying them their wages in full, He will give them
more out of His Grace, and those who were scornful and proud, He will give them a painful torment. And they
will not find for themselves beside Allah any supporter or helper.
174. ‘O people! Undoubtedly, a manifest argument has come to you from Allah and We have sent down to you a
manifest light.
175. Then those who believed in Allah and hold His rope firmly, then soon Allah will cause them to enter His Mercy
and Grace and will show them straight way towards Himself.
176. ‘O beloved Prophet! They ask you for a decree. Say you, “Allah decrees to you in respect of a person who
leaves neither father nor child that if a man dies and has no child and he has a sister then his sister has half in
his heritage and the man will be the heir of his sister, if the sister has no child. Then if there are two sisters
then they have two-third in the heritage and if there are brother, sister, males and females both, then the
share of male is equal to the shares of two women. Allah explains for you clearly so that you may not go
astray. And Allah knows every thing.

pilgrim’s garb, then you may hunt. And let not the enmity of any people, as they had prevented you from the

by any wild animal, but those which you have properly slaughtered and that which has been slaughtered at any
altar and the division by casting lots with arrows. This is an act of sin. This day the infidels are despaired of
your religion then fear them not, but fear Me. This day I have perfected your religion for you and completed

remove your sins and surely shall cause you to enter into the Gardens beneath which flow rivers then after that

words of Allah from their places and have forgotten a good portion of those admonitions, which were given to
them, and you shall always continue to be told of one or the other of their treachery, save a few of them, so
pardon them, and overlook them. Undoubtedly, Allah loves the benefactors.
14. And those who claimed that we are Christians, We took convenant from them, they too have forgotten a good
portion of those admonitions which were given to them, so We have caused enmity and hatred among
themselves till the Day of Judgement. And soon Allah will tell them, what they used to do.
15. ‘O people of the Book! Undoubtedly, Our Messenger has come to you who makes clear to you much of that
which you had hidden in the Book and pardons much. Undoubtedly, there has come to you from Allah a light

22. They said, ‘O Moses! Therein there are most powerful people, and we shall never enter it until they go forth
from it, yes, if they go forth from there, then we shall go there.
23. Two men of those who feared Allah whom Allah had favoured said, ‘enter the gate forcibly against them, if you
enter the gate then there is only yours, victory, and put your trust in Allah only, if you believe.

over these disobedients.

was accepted from one and was not accepted from the other. Ho said, I swear that I shall kill you’. The other

to kill you, I fear Allah, the Lord of all the Worlds.

is the punishment of unjust.

his brother. He said, ‘Oh woe is me! I could not be able even like this raven so that I may hide the corpse of
my brother, then he remained repenting.
32. On account of this. We wrote for the children of Israel that whosoever killed a soul not to retaliate for a soul,
nor for creating disorder in the land, then it is as if he had killed all mankinds. And whoso gave life to one soul,
then it is as if he had given life to all mankinds. And undoubtedly, Our Messengers came to them with clear
proofs then undoubtedly, many of them after that commit excess in the land.
33. The only recompense of those who fight against Allah and His Messenger and wander about in the land making
mischief is this that they all should he slain or he crucified or their hands of one side and the feet of the other
side be cut off or be sent far away from the land This is their disgrace in the world and in the Hereafter for

and listen very well to other people who have not come to you. They change the words of Allah from their
 
 
places, and say, If you get this command, then accept it, and if you get not this, then be on your guard.’ And

they whose hearts Allah intended not to purify To them there is disgrace in the world, and to them there is
great torment in the Hereafter.
42. They are habitual listeners of lies, great devourers of the things forbidden. So if they come to you, then judge
between them or turn your face from them, and if you will turn your face from them, they shall not harm you
at all. And if you judge between them then judge with justice. Undoubtedly, Allah likes the just.
43. And how they will wish judgement from you while they have Taurah with them wherein is Allah’s judgement
then thereafter they turn away their faces from it. And they are not to believe.
44. Undoubtedly, We have sent down Taurah, wherein is the guidance and light. According to it the Jews were
ordered by Our obedient prophets and men of reaming and, jurists for it was desired from them to preserve
the Book of Allah and they were witnesses to it, then fear not people, but fear Me and do not accept mean
price for Our Signs. And whoso judges not according to what Allah has sent down, they are the persons who
are infidels
45. And We made obligatory on them in Taurah, a life for a life, and an eye for an eye, and a nose for a nose and
an ear for an ear and a tooth for a tooth, and in injuries there is equitable retaliation. Then whoso
recompenses with happy heart then that shall be expiation for his sin. And whoso judges not according to what
Allah has sent down, then they are the persons unjust.
46. And We brought Isa son of Marium following those prophets on their footsteps, confirming Taurah that had
come before him, and We gave him Injeel wherein is guidance and light and confirms Taurah that had come
before it, and guidance and admonition to the duty-bound.
47. And let the people of Injeel judge by what Allah has revealed in it, and whoso judges not by what Allah has
sent down, then it is they who are the transgressors.
48. And O beloved Prophet! We have sent down to you the true Book confirming the Books preceding it and as a
protector and witness over them. So judge you between them according to what Allah has sent down and O
listener! Do not follow their desires leaving the truth that has come to you, We ordained a law and way for all
of you, and if Allah had willed, He would have made you all a single people, but He desires to test you in what
He has given you. So desire to excel in good deeds. You are all to return towards Allah, and then He shall tell
you regarding what you used to dispute.
49. And that O Muslim! Judge according to what Allah has sent down and follow not their desires and be on guard
against them lest they cause to slip you from any command that has come to you Then if they turn their faces
then know that Allah wishes to give them punishment for some of their sins. And no doubt, many men are
disobedient.
50. Do they seek the judgement of the days of ignorance? And who is better in judgement than Allah for a people
of firm faith?
51. ‘O believer! Do not take the Jews and Christians as friends, they are friends of each other among themselves,
and whoso of you makes them his friends, then he is one of them. Undoubtedly Allah guides not the people
unjust.
52. Now, you will see those in whose hearts is a disease run towards the Jews and Christians saying, ‘We fear lest
a misfortune befall us’. Then it’ is near that Allah may bring a, victory, or any Commandment from Himself,
then they will remain regretting on what they had concealed in their hearts.
53. And the believers say. ‘Are they the same who swore by Allah in their Oaths with full strength that they were
with you’? Their works were all destroyed. Then they were left in loss.
54. ‘O believers! Whoso of you will turn back from his religion, then soon Allah shall bring such people that they
will be dear to Allah and Allah will be dear to them, humble towards the Muslims, and stern towards the
infidels. They will fight in the way of Allah and will not fear the reproach of any reproacher This is the bounty of
Allah, He gives it whom He pleases. And Allah is All-embracing, All Knowing.
55. Only Allah is your friend and His Messenger and the believers that they establish the prayer and pay the poordue and are bowed down before Allah.
56. And whoso takes Allah and His Messenger and Muslims as his fiends, then undoubtedly, the party of Allah only
is dominant.
57. ‘O believers! Do not take any of them as your friend who has made your religion a mockery and a play-thing
those who were given the Book before you and the infidels, and remain fearing Allah if you believe.
58. And when you call for prayer, they make it a mockery and a play-thing. That is because they are wholly unwise
people.
59. Say you ‘O people of the Book! What seemed you bad of us, only this that we believe in Allah and what has
been sent down to us and what was sent down before, and that most of you are dis-obedients.
 
 
60. Say you, ‘shall I tell you about those who are in a worse condition with Allah than this? Those whom Allah has
cursed and on them has caused anger and of whom He has made apes and swine and worshippers of devil
(Satan). Their destination is worse and they are astrayed farther from the right path.
61. And when they come to you, they say, ‘We are Muslims,’ while they were infidel; when they came and infidels
too when they departed. And Allah knows well what they are concealing.
62. And you will see many of them run towards sin and transgression and eating what is forbidden. Undoubtedly
they are practising evil things
63. Why their clergymen and priests do not forbid then from uttering sinful words and eating of things forbidden”
Undoubtedly. They are performing evil things.
64. The Jews have said, the hand of Allah is tied up, their own hands he tied up and there be curse of Allah on
them for their uttering, but His hands are wide open. He gives how He pleases, And O beloved Prophet! What
has been sent down to you from your Lord will increase many of them in wickedness and infidelity. And We
have cast among them enmity and hatred till the Day of Judgement. Whenever they kindle the fire of war,
Allah extinguishes it and run about in the land for mischief. And Allah loves not the mischief mongers.
65. And had the people of the Book believed and been duty-bound. Then indeed We would have removed their
sins and We would surely have caused them to enter gardens of Bliss.
66. And had they maintained Taurah and Injeel and what has been sent down to them from their Lord, then they
would have received subsistence from above and from beneath their feet. A party among them is moderate
and most of them are doing most evil things.
67. ‘O Messenger! Communicate that which has been sent down to you from your Lord. And if it is not so, then you
have not conveyed His any message. And Allah will guard you from the people. Undoubtedly, Allah gives not
way to the infidels.
68. Say you, ‘O people of the Book! You are nothing until you establish Taurah and Injeel and what has been sent
down to you from your Lord. And undoubtedly, O beloved Prophet! What has been sent down to you from your
Lord, will increase many of them in wickedness and infidelity, then grieve not for the infidels.
69. Undoubtedly, those who call themselves Muslims and in the same way the Jews and worshipers of stars
(Sabaeans) and Christians, whoso of them believes with true heart in Allah and the Last Day and works good,
then on them neither there is any fear nor any grief.
70. Undoubtedly, We took a covenant from the children of Israel, and We sent Messengers to them. Whenever any
Messenger came with those things which their soul did not desire, they belied a party (of them) and another
they slain.
71. And they imagine, that there shall be no punishment, (for them) then they became blind and deaf, then again
Allah accepted their repentance, yet again most of them became blind and deaf. And Allah is seeing their
works.
72. Undoubtedly, those are infidels, who say, “Masih son of Maryam is the very Allah’. And whereas Masih had said
‘O children of lsrail worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord Undoubtedly, whoso. Associates anyone with Allah,
then Allah has forbidden paradise to him and his abode is Hell. And there is no helper of unjust.
73. Undoubtedly, those are infidels who say, ‘Allah is third of the three Gods, and there is no God but the one God.
And if they desist not from what they say, then a painful torment shall surely befall to those who will die as
infidels.
74. Then why they do not turn towards Allah and ask His Forgiveness? And Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
75. The Messiah son of Mary was not but a Messenger, many Messengers passed away before him. And his mother
is a truthful woman. Both used to take food. See how clear signs We explain for them, then see how they are
turned away.
76. Say you, ‘Do you worship beside Allah, that which is neither master of your loss nor of profit. And Allah is the
Hearing, the knowing.
77. ‘O people of the Book! Exceed not the limits in your religion unjustly, and follow not the desires of a people
who have already gone astray and caused many to go astray and have strayed away from the right path.
78. Cursed were those who committed infidelity from amongst the children of Israel by the tongue of Daud and Isa
son of Maryam. This reward because of their dis-obedience and transgression.
79. Whatever bad they did they did not prohibit one other among themselves. Necessarily, they used to do evil
things
80. You will see many of them befriend infidels. What an evil thing they have sent forth for themselves that Allah’s
Wrath fell upon them and they shall dwell in torment forever.
81. And if they had believed in Allah and this prophet and what has been sent down to him, then they would not
have taken the infidels as friends but, many of them are disobedients.
82. You shall surely find the Jews and polytheist the bitterest enemies of Muslims, and surely you shall find the
 
 
nearest in friendship to Muslims, those who used to say, “we are Christians.” That is because among them are
men of learning and monks and they are not proud.
83. And when they hear what has been sent down towards the Messenger, then see, their eyes are overflowing
tears because they have recognised the truth they say, ‘O our Lord we have accepted faith, then write us down
among the witnesses of truth.
84. And what happened to us that we should not have faith in Allah and the truth that has come to us and we long
that our Lord would cause us to enter with the righteous people.
85. Therefore, Allah on account of what they say gave them gardens beneath which rivers flow, they will abide
therein. This is the recompense of the righteous.
86. And those who committed infidelity and belied Our signs are the people of Hell.
87. ‘O believers! Make not unlawful the pure things, which Allah has made lawful for you and cross not the limit.
Undoubtedly, Allah likes not those who cross the limit.
88. And eat what Allah has provided you lawful and pure. And fear Allah in Whom you believe.
89. Allah holds not you responsible for oaths taken by misunderstanding, but He holds you responsible for oaths
which you made binding then the expiation of such oaths is the feeding of ten needy people with average food
with which you feed your family members, or clothing them or the freeing of a slave then whoso finds not
anything of these, then for him is the fasting of three days. This is the expiation of your oaths when you have
sworn. And guard your oaths. Similarly Allah explains His signs to you so that you may be grateful.
90. ‘O believers! Wine and gambling and idols and divining arrows are only unclean things, a work of devil (Satan)
then save yourselves from them, so that you may prosper.
91. The devil (Satan) desires only to put hatred and enmity among you in regard to wine and gambling and to bar
you from the remembrance of Allah and from prayer, will you then desist?
92. And obey Allah and obey the Messenger and be careful then if you turn back, know then that the responsibility
over Our Messenger is only to deliver the message clearly.
93. On those who believed and did righteous work there is no sin for what they have eaten when they fear and
keep faith and do righteous work, again fear and keep faith, then again fear and remain righteous And Allah
loves the, righteous.
94. ‘O believers! Allah shall surely test you with some such game which your hands and lances may reach in order
that Allah may make known those who fear Him without seeing, then after this who so crosses the limit, for
him is a painful punishment.
95. ‘O believers! Kill not game while you are in a pilgrim garb. And who so amongst you kills it intentionally, then;
his compensation is that he should give a like animal from amongst the cattle as judged by two just persons
among you, this offering reaching to the Kaaba, or as an expiation, feeding of some needy persons or its
equivalent in, fasting, so that he may taste the enormity of his deed. Allah has pardoned what happened in the
past. And who so will do now Allah will take retribution from him. And Allah is Dominant Lord of Retribution.
96. Lawful is to you the game of the sea and its eating for the benefit of you and the travellers and forbidden to
you is the game of the land, so long you are in pilgrim garb. And fear Allah towards Whom you are to rise.
97. Allah made Kaaba the sacred House as an establishment for the people, and so the sacred month and the
offerings of the sacred House and the animals with the marks hanging in the neck. That is so that you may
believe that Allah knows what is in the heavens and what is in the earth and that Allah knows everything.
98. Know that the torment of Allah is severe and Allah is Forgiving. Merciful.
99. Nothing is on the Messenger but communicating the Message. And Allah knows what you disclose and what
you hide.
100. Say you, ‘the dirty and clean are not equal, even though the abundance of the dirty may please you, then
remain fearing Allah,O men of understanding! So that you may get prosperity.
101. ‘O believers! ask not such things which if disclosed to you, may displease you; and if you will ask while the
Quran is descending then they would be disclosed to you. Allah has already pardoned them. And Allah is
Forgiving, Forbearing.
102. A people before you asked them, then became rejecters therein.
103. Allah has not appointed any ‘Bahira’ and nor ‘Saiba’ and nor ‘Wasila’ and nor ‘Hami’ (names of sacred animals
she camels and she goats of the time of Pagans) but yes, the infidels fabricate the lie against Allah. And most
of them are perfectly unwise.
104. And when it is said to them, ‘come to what Allah has sent down and to the Messenger’, they say,’ enough for
us is that wherein we found, our fathers, what! Even though their fathers knew nothing nor were guided.
105. ‘O believers! Take care of yourselves. He, who has gone astray, will not harm you when you are on the right
way. Towards Allah is the return of you all, then He will tell you what you were doing.
106. ‘O believers! The evidence among yourselves when death approaches any of you at the time of making a will is
 
 
of two jut persons from among you or two of the others, when you be on journey in the land, and the calamity
of death befall you, Detain them both after prayer, they should swear by Allah if you are in any doubt, that we
shall not purchase any wealth in exchange of the oath, even though he may be a near relation, and will not
hide the testimony of Allah if we do so, we are surely among the sinners.
107. Then if it is known that they became guilty of any sin, then two others should stand in their place from
amongst those nearer to the deceased whose right has been injured by this sin (by this false evidence), then
they should swear by Allah that our evidence is more upright than the evidence of those two, and we crossed
not the limit, if it be so then we should be of the unjust.
108. It is nearer that they may give the evidence as it should be or fear that some oaths may be rebutted after their
oaths. And fear Allah and listen to His commands. And Allah gives not the way to the dis-obedients.
109. The day when Allah will gather the Messengers, then will say, ‘what answer was made to you,’ they will submit,
‘We have no knowledge, it is You only the Knower of all things unseen.
110. When Allah will say, ‘O Issa son of Maryam, remember My favour upon you and your mother, when I aided you
with holy spirit, then you spoke to people in the cradle and in the grown up age, and when I taught you the
Book and wisdom and Taurah and Injeel, and when you make of clay a figure like a bird by My command then
you breathe into it, then it begins to fly by My command, and you cure the born blind and the leper by My
command, and you bring forth alive the dead by My command, and when I restrained the children of Israel
from you when you came to them taking clear signs, then the infidels of them spoke, ‘this is nothing but an
open made.
111. And when I inspired the disciples to believe in Me and in My Messenger, they said, ‘We have believed, and bare
you witness that we are muslims.’
112. When the disciples said, ‘O Issa son of Maryam, will your Lord do, that He should sent us down a tray of food
from the heaven? He said, ‘fear Allah if you have faith.
113. They said, ‘we wish that we may eat of it and our hearts may be satisfied and we may see with our own eyes
that you spoke truth to as, and we may be witnesses thereof.’
114. Issa son of Maryam submitted, ‘O Allah our Lord, ‘sends down to us a tray of food from the heaven so that it
may be an occasion of rejoicing for us, for the first and the last of us and a sign from You, and provide for us
and you are the best of Providers.
115. Allah said, ‘I send it down to you, now therefore whoso of you will commit infidelity, then undoubtedly. I shall
torment him with a torment wherewith I shall not punish to anyone in the entire Universe.
116. And when Allah will say, ‘O Issa son of Maryam! Did you tell to people, ‘make me and my mother two gods
besides Allah’? He will submit ‘bellowed be You, it is not justified for me that I should tell the thing to which I
have no reach. ‘If I had said that You would surely have known it You know what is in my heart and I do not
know what is in Your knowledge. Undoubtedly, it is You only, Knower of, all hidden things.
117. I said not to them but that which You had commanded me that worship Allah my Lord and your Lord, and I
knew of them as long as I remained in them, then when You took me up, then You were the Watcher over
them, and every thing is, present before You.
118. If You punish them, they are Your bondmen, and if You forgive them, then undoubtedly, You are only the
Dominant, the Wise.
119. Allah said, ‘this is the day in which their truthfulness will benefit the truthful, for them, are Gardens beneath
which rivers flow, they shall abide therein for ever. Allah is pleased with them and they are pleased with Allah.
This is the great success.
120. For Allah is the kingdom of the heavens and earth and whatever is in them. And. He is Potent over everything.

Surah Number 6: Al-An`âm (Animal, Cattle, Livestock)

Revealed at: Makkah
Total Verses: 165
ALLAH in the name of The Most Affectionate, the Merciful.
 
 
1. All Praise to Allah, Who created the heavens and the earth and brought into being the darkness and the light,
yet the infidels ascribe equals to their Lord.
2. It is He Who created you from clay, then He decreed a term, and there is a determined promise with Him,
thereafter you doubt.
3. And He is the very Allah of heavens and earth He knows all your secrets and what you reveal and knows your
doings.
4. And there comes to them no sign of the signs of their, Lord, but they turn away, their faces from it.
5. Then undoubtedly, they belied the truth when it came to then. So now, they are to be informed of that they
were mocking at.
6. Have they not observed how many a generation We have destroyed before them? We gave them such
establishment in the earth, which We gave you not, and We sent them rain in torrents and caused rivers flow
beneath them, then We destroyed them on account of their sins, and after them raised up another generation.
7. And if We had sent down on you something written on paper so that they would have touched it with their
hands, even then the infidels would have said, ‘this is nothing but manifest magic’.
8. And they said, ‘Why not any angel has been sent on him? And if We would have sent an angel the affair would
have been finished, and they would not have been given time.
9. And if We had made the prophet an angel, even then We would have made him a man, and they would have
the same doubt in him as they have now.
10. And assuredly, O beloved prophet! Messengers before you were mocked at; then those who were mocking at
them their mockery surrounded them selves.
11. Say you, Go about in the land, then see how has been the end of beliers’.
12. Say you, ‘To whom belongs whatever is in the heavens and the earth? Say you ‘To Allah, ‘He has written mercy
upon His generosity. Undoubtedly, He will surely gather you on the Day of judgement There is no doubt in it.
Those who have put their souls in loss would not believe.
13. And to Him belongs whatever dwells in the night and day. And He is the Hearer the Knower.
14. Say you, ‘Shall I take for protector any other than Allah Who has created heavens and earth, and He feeds and
is not fed? Say you; I have been commanded to submit first and never to be of polytheists.
15. Say you; ‘If I disobey my Lord then, I fear the torment of a Mighty Day’.
16. On that day, from whomsoever the torment is averted Allah indeed has had mercy on him And this is the
manifest triumph.
17. And if Allah causes any evil to you, then there is none to remove it but He. And if He brings you good, then He
can do everything.
18. And He is all Dominant over His bondmen. And He is the very Wise, the Aware.
19. Say you, ‘Whose evidence is the greatest’? Say you, ‘Allah is witness between you and me this Quran has been
revealed to me so that with it may warn you and whomsoever it reaches.’ Then do you give this evidence that
besides Allah there are other gods? Say you ‘I do not give this evidence. ‘Say you, ‘He is the only one to be
worshiped and I am quit of all those, you associate with Him’.
20. Those whom We gave the Book recognise this prophet as they recognise their sons. Those who have put their
souls in loss would not believe.
21. And who is more unjust than he who forges a lie against Allah or belies His signs Undoubtedly, the unjust will
never get prosperity.
22. And the day when, We shall raise them all together then will say to the polytheists, ‘where are those your
associates whom you used to assert’.
23. Then there remained not any fabrication for them but to say, ‘by Allah, Our Lord, We were not polytheists.
24. See! How they lied against themselves and were lost from them the things, which they had been concocting.
25. And among them are some who give ear (listen) to you and, We have put veils over their hearts so that they
understand it not and in their ears is heaviness. And if they may see all signs even then they will not believe in
them. In as much as when they come to you disputing, then infidels say, ‘this is not but the stories of the
ancients.’
26. And they forbid from it and keep a far from it and they ruin not but their own souls and they perceive not.
27. And if you could see when they will be made to stand before the fire then they will say, ‘would that We might
be resumed and belie not, the sighs of their Lord and might become Muslims.
28. But it has become manifest to them what they used to conceal before. And if they were sent back, they would
do the same from which they were forbidden and undoubtedly, they are surely liars.
29. And they say, This is the only our life of the world and we are not to be raised’.
30. And if you could see when they shall be made to stand before their Lord. He will say, is not this truth? They will
say, ‘why not by our, Lord’ He will say, ‘then now taste the torment, the reward of your infidelity.’
 
 
31. Undoubtedly, they remained losers who denied the meeting with their Lord, so much so, that when the Hour
came to them suddenly, they said, ‘Oh alas for us, that we committed mistake in accepting it and that we bear
our burden on our backs O what an evil burden they are bearing?
32. And worldly life is nothing but a play and amusement. And undoubtedly, the last abode is better for those who
fear. Do you not then?
33. We know that what they say, grieves you, they belie you not, but the evil doers deny the signs of Allah.
34. And the Messengers were belied before you, but they endured patiently when they were belied and were
persecuted, until Our help came to them. And there is none to change the words of Allah; and the news of the
Messengers has already come to you.
35. And if their turning away of faces has grieved you, then if you can do, seek any tunnel in the ground or a
ladder unto heaven, and bring a sign for them. And if Allah has willed, then He would have gathered them on
the guidance, so O listener! Be never you an innocent.
36. Those very accept who listen, and Allah will raise those of dead hearts, then towards Him they will be driven.
37. And they say, ‘why has not a sign been sent down to them from their Lord? Say you, ‘Allah has power to send
down a sign, but most of them are fully ignorant.
38. And there is no one crawling on earth nor any bird that flies on its wings but are the communities like you. We
have left out nothing in the Book. Then to their Lord they shall be raised.
39. And those who belied Our signs are deaf and dumb in utter darkness. Allah sends astray whom He will, and
places on the straight path whom He will.
40. Say you, ‘tell you then if the torment of Allah comes to you or the Hour is established, will you call upon any
other than Allah, if you are truthful?
41. But you will call Him alone, so if He please He would remove that for which you call for Him, and you would
forget the associates.
42. And undoubtedly, We sent; Messengers towards communities before you then seized them with adversity and
distress so that they might beseech.
43. Why did it not happen that when Our torment came upon them, they would have beseeched? But their hearts
were hardened and the devil (Satan) made fair seeming to them their deeds in their eyes.
44. Then when they forget that with which they were admonished We opened unto them the gates of all things
until when they became delighted at what they were given, then We seized them suddenly, now they were left
in disappear.
45. Then the unjust were uprooted completely; and a praise belongs to Allah, the Lord of all the worlds.
46. Say you, ‘look you, if Allah should take away your ears and eyes and seal up your hearts, then who is the God
other than Allah Who could bring these things back to you? See how in different manners We explain the signs
but they turn away their faces.
47. Say you, look you, if the torment of Allah comes upon you suddenly or openly then who will be destroyed save
the unjust people.
48. We do not send the Messengers but to give glad tidings and to warn, then those who believed and amended
themselves then to them there is neither fear nor any grief.
49. And those who belied Our signs, torment shall reach to them because of their disobedience.
50. Say you, ‘I do not say to you, I possess the treasures, of Allah, ‘and nor I Say,’ I know the unseen myself, and
nor do I say to you, ‘I am an angel. I follow only that which is revealed to me.’ Say you, shall the blind and the
seeing become equal? Do you then not ponder?
51. And with this Quran warn those who fear that they shall be raised towards their Lord in a manner that there
shall be neither supporter nor any intercessor for them beside Allah, in the hope that they may be come Godfearing.
52. And drive not away those who call upon their Lord morning and evening seeking His pleasure. Nothing on you
from their account, and nothing on them from your account, then if you drive them away, this thing is far from
justice.
53. And thus We made one of them a trial for the other on that the wealthy infidel may say seeing the needy
Muslims, ‘Are these people whom Allah has favoured among us? Does not Allah know well the grateful?
54. And when those who believe in Our signs come to you then say to them, ‘Peace be upon you,’ your Lord has
prescribed mercy on Himself, that whoso of you does some evil ignorantly and repents thereafter and amends,
then undoubtedly, Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
55. And in this way We explain fully Our signs, and in order that the way of the guilty may become evident.
56. Say you, ‘I have been for bidden to worship those whom you worship besides Allah. ‘Say you, ‘I follow not your
vain desires, if it be so then I would go astray and would not remain, on the path’.
57. Say you, ‘I am on a shinning proof from my Lord and you belie it; I have not that with me for which you are
 
 
hastening.’ There is no order but of Allah. He explains the truth and He is the Best of judges.
58. Say you ‘If I had that thing for which you are hastening, then the affair would have been already ended
between me and you. And Allah knows well the oppressors.
59. And with Him is the key of unseen, He only knows them And He knows whatever is in the land and in the sea.
And the leaf that falls He knows it. And there is not any grain in the darkness of the earth, and nor anything
wet and nor dry which is not written in a luminous Book.
60. And He is the very Who takes hold of your souls by night and knows whatever you earn by day, then He raises
you in the day so that the appointed term may be completed, then you have to return towards Him, then He
will tell you what you used to do.
61. And He is the Dominant over His bondmen and He,’ sends guardians over you, until when death comes to any
of you, Our angels take his soul and they do not fail.
62. Then they are turned back towards their true Lord Allah. (Do you hear?) His is the order and He is the Quickest
in taking account.
63. Say you, ‘Who is that Who delivers you from the calamities of the forest and sea Whom you call upon in
humility and secretly that if He saves us from this, then we shall certainly be grateful.
64. Say you, Allah delivers you from this and from every distress, yet you associate partners with Him.
65. Say you, ‘He is powerful to send torment on you from above you or from beneath your feet or He may make
you to encounter by making different groups and to make you, taste the severity of one another,’ see, How We
explain the signs in various ways haply they may understand.
66. And your people belied it, and it is the truth. Say you; ‘I am not an advocate over you’.
67. For every thing, there is a time fixed and soon you will come to know.
68. And O listener! When you see those who plunge in Our signs then turn away your face from them until they
plunge in some other discourse, and whatever they say the devil (Satan) may make you forget then sit not you
after recollection with the unjust people.
69. And there is nothing on the righteous from their account yes, but to admonish them, haply they may abstain.
70. And leave those alone who have made their religion a mockery and play thing and the worldly life has deceived
them and admonishes them with Quran, so that a soul may not be caught on account of its doings. It shall
have neither helper nor intercessor beside Allah. And if it gives every compensation for itself, it shall not be
accepted from it. These are they who have been caught on their doings. For them is a drink of boiling water
and painful torment, the recompense of their infidelity.
71. Say you, ‘shall we worship beside Allah that which neither does us any good nor does any harm, and shall we
be turned back on our heels, after that Allah has shown us the way, like one whom the devil has made to
forget his way in the earth, he is bewildered, (while) his companions are calling him towards the way that come
to us? Say you, ‘The guidance of Allah is the only guidance, and we are commanded to submit to Him only who
is the Lord of all worlds.
72. And this that establishes prayer and fears Him and it is He towards Whom you are to rise.
73. And it is He who has made the heavens and earth rightly. And the Day when the destruction will occur, He will
say to everything, ‘be then it will become atonce. His word is the truth. And His is the kingdom on the day
when the trumpet will be blown He is the Knower of every secret and open and He is the Wise, the Aware.
74. And remember when Abraham said to his father, Azar, ‘Do you take the idols for gods’? Undoubtedly, I find you
and your people in manifest error.
75. And thus We show to Abraham all the Kingdoms of heavens and earth and in Order that he might become of
the convinced at sight.
76. When the darkness of night came on him, he saw a star, said he, ‘you take this as my Lord! Then when it set,
said he, ‘I do not like the setting ones’.
77. Then when he saw the moon shining, said he, ‘you tell this my Lord, then when it set, said he, ‘if my Lord
would not have guided me I would also have been of tee same who have gone astray.’
78. Then when he saw the sun shining, said he, au say this my Lord! This is biggest of all then when it set, said he
‘O people, I am quit of all those things which you associate with God.
79. I diverted my face towards Him who have made the heavens and earth, being of Him only and I am not of the
polytheists.
80. And his people began to dispute with him, said he, ‘do you dispute with me in respect of Allah, then He has
already told me the way, and I do not fear those that you tell as His associates, but yes if my Lord, wishes
anything. My Lord comprehends every thing in His knowledge. Then, do you not accept the admonition?
81. And how should I fear those you associate and while you do not fear that you associated with Allah that for
which He has not sent down to you any certificate. Then which of the two groups is more entitled for security,
if you know?
 
 
82. Those who have believed and mixed not any injustice with their faith, these are the people for whom there is
security and they are the very who are guided.
83. And this is Our argument that We gave to Ibraham against his people; We raise in degrees Whom we please.
Undoubtedly, your Lord is Wise, Knowing.
84. And We gave him Ishaque and Yaqub We showed the path to all of them and showed the path to Nuh before
them, and of his progeny, to Daud and Suleman and Ayub and Yusuf and Musa and Haroon, and thus We
recompense the righteous.
85. And to Zakaria (Zacharia) and Yahya (John) and Isa (Jesus) and Ilyas (Elias). These are all entitled to be Our
near ones (righteous)
86. And to Ismail and Yasa (Elisha) and Yunus (Jonah) and Lot, And to each one We preferred above all in his
time.
87. And also to some of their fathers and their progeny and some of their brothers, and We chose them and
showed them the straight path.
88. This is the guidance of Allah. He gives whom He will of His bondmen, and if they would have committed
polytheism, then surely, all that they had already done would have been destroyed.
89. Those are they to whom We gave the Book and order and prophet-hood, then if these people reject it. Then
We have appointed for it such a people who are not the rejecters.
90. These are they whom Allah has guided, then follow you their path. Say you; I ask you no wage for Quran that
is not but an admonition to the entire world.
91. And the Jews did not know the estimation of Allah as was necessary for Him when they said, ‘Allah has not
sent down anything on any man.’ Say you, ‘who has sent down that Book which was brought by Moses, a light
and a guidance for the people of which you have made separate papers to show and much of it you conceal;
and you are taught that which you knew not neither you nor your fathers ‘Say, ‘Allah.” Then leave them playing
in their absurdity.
92. And this is a blessed Book ‘ that We have sent down confirming those Books which were before it and in order
that you may warn the chief of all cities (Mekkah) and to all those around it in the entire world. And those who
believe in the Hereafter believe in this Book and guard their prayer.
93. And who is more unjust than one who fabricates a lie ‘ against Allah or Says, ‘I have received a revelation and
nothing has been revealed to him and who says, ‘just now I send down the like of what Allah has sent down,
and if you could see the unjust when they are in the agonies of death and the angels have stretched their
hands; (saying) ‘yield up your souls’, this day you will be awarded the punishment of disgrace for you used to
forge lie against Allah and because you were big with pride against His signs.
94. And undoubtedly, you have come to US alone as We created you for the first time, and you have left behind
your backs whatever wealth and had given you; and We see not with you your intercessors of whom you
asserted as your partners in your affairs, undoubtedly, the ties between you are cut off and gone is that from
you who used to assert.
95. Undoubtedly! Allah is the Cleaver of seed-grain and date stone. He brings forth the living from the dead and is
the Bringer forth of the dead from the living. This is Allah! Where are you going back?
96. He brings forth the dawn after cleaving the darkness and He has made the night for rest and the sun and
moon as reckoning. This is the measurement of the Mighty, the Knowing.
97. And it is He who has made the stars for you that you may get the way in the darkness of the Land and the sea.
We have explained the signs in detail for people who know.
98. And it is He who has produced you from a single soul, then you have to stay some where and to remain as
repository at some other place. Undoubtedly! We have explained the signs in detail for a people of
understanding.
99. And it is He who has sent down water from the heaven, then We brought forth every things of growth and out
of it We brought forth the green (foliage) from which We bring forth-clustered grains and out of the sheaths of
palms the bunches close to one another and gardens of grapes and olives and pomegranates, similar in some
respect and dissimilar in some other respects. Look at its fruit when it bears fruit and its ripening. Undoubtedly
there are signs in it for the persons believing.
100. And they have made jinns as associates of Allah whereas He created them and they devised for him sons and
Daughters without any knowledge. Holy is He and exalted far above from their affairs.
101. The Originator of the heavens and earth, from where He have a son whereas there is no woman for Him and
he has created everything and He knows all things.
102. This is Allah, your Lord none is to be worshipped except He, the Maker of every thing, then worships Him, He is
Guardian over everything.
103. Eyes comprehend Him not and all eyes are under His comprehension and it is He Who is the Innermost, All
 
 
Aware.
104. There have come to you the eye Opener arguments from your Lord, then whosoever saw it, then it is for his
own good and whosoever became blind, then it is for his own bad and I am not a guardian over you.
105. And thus We variously explain the signs and because the infidels may say, ‘you have studied’ and that We may
make it clear over the people who know.
106. Follow you what has been revealed to you, none is to be worshipped except He and turn your face from the
polytheists.
107. And had Allah willed they would not have committed polytheism and We made not you watcher over them, nor
are you an advocate over them.
108. And abuse not those whom they worship beside Allah because they will commit rudeness in respect of Allah
through their excessiveness and ignorance. Thus We have mace fair the deeds of every nation in their eyes,
then they have to return back towards their Lord and He will tell them what they used to do.
109. And they swear by Allah in their oath with utmost earnest that if there come to them any sign then they would
surely believe therein. Say you, ‘The signs are with Allah and what you know that when they would come then
they will not believe therein.
110. And We turn about their hearts and their eyes, as they believed not therein at the first time and We leave them
to wander about in their contumacy.
111. And if We had sent down angels towards them and the dead had spoken to them and We had brought
together all things before them, even then they would not believe but if Allah would have willed, but most of
them are totally ignorant.
112. And in like manner We have made for every prophet an enemy, devils from among men and jinn, that in them
one inspires the other secretly with fabricated discourse in order to deceive and had your Lord wished, they
would not have done so then leave them on their fabrications.
113. And because that the hearts of those who do not believe in the Hereafter may incline towards it, and that they
may like it, and may earn sin what they are to earn.
114. Then, shall I seek the judgement of some one other than Allah, when it is He who has sent down towards you
this detailed Book? And those whom We have given the Book know that it is sent down by your Lord in truth;
so O’ Listener’ be never then of the doubters.
115. And Complete is the word of your Lord in veracity and justice. There is no one to change His words: and He is
the Hearer, the Knower.
116. And O listener! There are majority of those on earth that if you follow their saying, then they would mislead
you from the way of Allah. They are only behind their imaginations and they are in mere conjecture.
117. Your Lord knows well who has gone astray from His way, and He knows well the guided ones.
118. Then eat of that on which the name of Allah has been pronounced, if you believe in His signs.
119. And what happened to you that you should not eat out of that on which the name of Allah has been
pronounced. He has explained to you in detail what is forbidden to you, but when you be compelled to it? And
undoubtedly, many mislead by their own desires without knowing. Undoubtedly, your Lord knows well the
transgressors.
120. And leave the apparent and secret sins. Those who earn sin, soon they will get punishment of their earning.
121. And eat not that over which the name of Allah has not been pronounced for undoubtedly that is dis-obedience
And Surely the devils inspire their friends that they may quarrel with you, and if you obey them, then at that
time you are polytheist.
122. And will he who was dead, then We gave him life, and made for him a light by which he walks among mankind,
become like that who is in darkness from which he is not to come out? Thus, in the eyes of infidels their deeds
have been made fair looking.
123. And thus have We made in each town the leaders of the guilty, so that they may plot therein. And they plot not
but against their own souls, and they perceive not.
124. And when any sign comes to them, then they say, ‘We shall never believe unless we receive the like of what
has been given to the Messengers of Allah. Allah knows well where to place His Messenger-ship. Soon the
guilty ones will receive humiliation before Allah and severe torment for their plotting.
125. And whomsoever Allah wishes to show the way, He opens his breast for Islam, and whomsoever wishes to lose
his way, He makes his breast narrow, straitened well as if he is climbing up into the sky forced by some one
else And thus Allah inflicts Punishment on those who believe not.
126. And this is the straight path of your Lord. We have explained the signs in detail for the people accepting
admonition.
127. For them is the home of safety with their Lord, and He is their Protector, this is the fruit of their doings.
128. And the day He will raise all of them and will say, ‘O company of Jinn! You have gathered many men,” and
 
 
their allies among men will say. ‘O our Lord! We made use of one another and we have reached the term you
had determined for us.’ He will say, ‘Fire is your abode, abide therein for ever but as Allah will.’ O beloved
prophet Undoubtedly your Lord is Wise, Knowing.
129. And thus We set over one against the other among the unjust for what they have done.
130. ‘O company of Jinn and men! Did not Messengers come to you from amongst yourselves reciting My signs to
you, and warning you of seeing this day of yours? They will say, We bear witness against our souls,’ and the
worldly life deceived them and will themselves bear witness against their souls that they were infidels.
131. This is so because your Lord destroys not the town unjustly while their people are unaware.
132. And for every one there are degrees in accordance with their deeds. And your Lord is not unaware of their
actions.
133. And O beloved prophet’ Your Lord is Self sufficient, Merciful O mankind! If He please, He may take you away,
and bring some other whom He will in your place, just as He created you from the off springs of other people.
134. Undoubtedly, what is promised to you is sure to come and you cannot get it tired.
135. Say you. ‘O my people! Go on acting in your places do my work, ‘then now you wish to know for whom
remains the ultimate Abode. Undoubtedly, the unjust get not the welfare.
136. And whatever filth and cattle Allah has produced they made Him a sharer in them, then said, ‘this is for Allah
according to their fancies and this is for our associates.’ Then that which is of their associates does not reach
God and that which is for God reaches their associates. What an evil judgement they assign?
137. And thus their associates have made fair-seeming the killing of offsprings in the eyes of many polytheists, so
that they may ruin them and may confuse them in their religion. And had Allah willed, they would not have
done so, then you leave them, they are with their fabrications.
138. And they say, ‘this cattle and tilth are taboo, only those can eat them whom We please with their false notions,
and there are some cattle over which riding is forbidden, and some cattle over which they do not pronounce
the name of Allah at the time of slaughtering, this all is to assert lie against Allah. Soon He shall recompense
them for their fabrications.
139. And they say, ‘what is: within the bellies of those cattle solely belong to our males and is forbidden to our
women, and if it be born dead, then they all are partners therein. Soon Allah will recompense them for their
such actions. Undoubtedly He is Wise, knowing.
140. Undoubtedly, those who kill their offsprings by their foolish ignorance are ruined and make unlawful what Allah
has provided for them, forging a lie against Allah. Undoubtedly, they have strayed and have not got the way.
141. And it is He who has produced gardens, trellised and untrellised, and date palms and filth in which are various
kinds of food and olives and pomegranates similar in some respects and dis-similar in some other respects. Eat
of their fruits when bear fruits and pay due thereof on the day of harvesting, and spend not wastefully.
Undoubtedly, He does not like those who spend wastefully
142. And of the cattle some are for carrying burden and some lying on earth (too small) Eat of what Allah has
provided for you and do not follow the footsteps of the devil (Satan). Undoubtedly, he is your open enemy.
143. Eight males and females, one pair of sheep and one pair of goat; say you, ‘has He made both males unlawful
or both females or that which the wombs of two females contain? Inform by any knowledge, if you are
truthful.’
144. And a pair of camel and a pair of cow; say you, ‘has He made both males unlawful or both females or that
which the wombs of both females contain?” Were you present when Allah gave you this order, then who is
more unjust than one who forges lie against Allah, that he may misguide the people with his ignorance.
Undoubtedly, Allah does not show the path to unjust.
145. Say you, ‘I find not in what has been revealed to me any meal forbidden to any eater, but that it be a dead
body, or flowing blood of veins or the flesh of a vile animal (swine) for that is foul or an animal of disobedience
in slaughtering of which the name other than God has been pronounced, then whoso is driven by necessity
neither willing himself nor exceeding beyond the necessity, then undoubtedly. Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
146. And to the Jews We forbade every animal having hoofs and the fat of cow and goat We forbade them but what
their backs or intestines carry or what is attached to their bones. We recompensed them for their contumacy,
and undoubtedly, We are surely the Truthful.
147. Again if they belie you say you, ‘your Lord is of extensive mercy and His torment is not turned aside from the
guilty people.’
148. Now the polytheists say, ‘if Allah had willed, we would not have committed polytheism, neither our fore-fathers,
nor had We forbidden anything.’ In the same manner belied those who were before them until they tasted Our
torment. Say you, ‘Have you any knowledge that you bring it forth to us? You are only behind your conjecture
and without nothing you estimate.
149. Say you, ‘then the argument of Allah is conclusive; so if He had wished, then. He would have guided you all.’
 
 
150. Say you, ‘Bring your those witnesses who testify that Allah has forbidden this, ‘then if they testify, then you O
listener! Bear not witness with them, and follow not the desires of those who belie Our signs, and who believe
not in the Hereafter, and they ascribe equals to their Lord.
151. Say you, ‘Come I will rehearse to you what your Lord has forbidden to you, ‘that you associate not anyone with
Him, and that you do good to parents, and that you kill not your children because of poverty. We shall provide
for you and for them, and that you approach not shameful deeds whichever them is open and whichever is
hidden; and slay not unjustly the life which Allah has made sacred. This has He ordered you that you may
understand.
152. And do not approach the property of the orphans but in the best way, until he reaches the maturity and fill up
the measure and weight with justice. We burden no soul but to its capacity, and when you speak, then say
just, event though it be a matter of your relative, and fulfil the covenant of Allah. This He has en-joined you
strictly that haply you may accept admonition.
153. And that, this is My’ straight path, then follow it and follow not other paths for they will deviate you from His
path. This He has ordered you that haply you may be self-restrained.
154. Again We gave the Book to Moses for doing full favour upon him who is righteous, and the details of
everything, and a guidance and mercy that haply they may believe in the meeting of their Lord.
155. And this blessed Book We have sent down, follow it then and be self-restrained, so that you may receive
mercy.
156. Lest you should say, The book was sent down to the two peoples before us, and we were unaware of their
reading and teaching.
157. Or lest you should say, If the Book had been sent own to us, then we would have be better guided than they.’
So there has come to you a luminous argument from your Lord, and guidance, and a mercy. Who is then more
unjust than he who belies the signs of Allah and turns his face from them? Soon We shall punish those with
great torment who turns away their faces from Our signs, the recompense of turning away their faces.
158. What they are waiting for, but for this that the angels should come to them, or that the torment of your Lord
should come, or that a sign off your Lord will come? The day when that one sign of your Lord will come.
Believing will not profit any soul that did not believe before or had not earned any good in its belief. Then say
you. ‘Wait, we also wait.’
159. Those who have created separate paths in their religion and have become many serfs O beloved prophet! You
have no concern at all with them. He will inform to them what they used to do.
160. Whoso brings one good, then for him there are ten like thereof, and whose brings an evil, shall not be
recompensed but to its equal and they shall not he wronged.
161. Say you, ‘Undoubtedly, my Lord has shown me the straight path, a right religion, the creed of Ibrahim who was
aloof from every falsehood and was not a polytheist.’
162. Say you, ‘Undoubtedly, my prayer, and my sacrifices, and my living and my dying are all for Allah Who is the
Lord of all the worlds.’
163. No one is associated to Him, so I have been commanded and I am the first muslim.
164. Say you, ‘shall I seek a Lord other than Allah, while He is the Lord of everything. And whatever one earns it is
on his, own account. And no bearer of burden will bear the burden of another. Then you have to return
towards your Lord, He will inform you of that in, which you used to differ.
165. And He it is Who has made you vicegerent in the earth and has raised one over the other in degrees among
you that He may try you in what He has given you. Undoubtedly, your Lord is not late in tormenting, and
undoubtedly, He is necessarily Forgiving, Merciful.

Surah Number 7: Al-A`râf (The Heights)

Revealed at: Makkah
Total Verses: 206
ALLAH in the name of The Most Affectionate, the Merciful.
1. ‘O beloved prophet! (Alif Lam, Mim, Saad.)
 
 
2. A Book has been sent to you, so let there be no impediment in your heart because of it, so that you may warn
therewith and an admonition to the muslims.
3. ‘O people! Follow what has been sent down to you from your Lord, and do not go behind other masters leaving
Him. Very little you understand.
4. And many a town We have destroyed then Our torment came upon them by night or while they slept in the
noon.
5. Then nothing came out from their mouths when Our torment came upon them but they said, ‘we were unjust
people.’
6. Then undoubtedly, We are necessarily to ask from those to whom Messengers were sent and undoubtedly, We
are necessarily to ask from the Messengers.
7. Then surely We shall tell them with Our knowledge and We were not absent.
8. And the weighing on that day is sure then those whoso scales are heavy, they are to attain their objects.
9. And those whose scales are light, then they are the persons who have put their souls in loss, the recompense
of those excesses which they used to do with Our signs.
10. And undoubtedly, We established you in the earth, and have made therein the means of your livelihood. How
little thanks you give.
11. And undoubtedly, We created you, then made your shapes, then We said to the angels, ‘prostrate before Adam
then all those fell prostrate, but Iblis (devil); he was not of those who prostrated.
12. He said, ‘what prevented you that you did not fall prostrate when I ordered you? Said he, I am better than him,
You created me of fire and made him of clay.’
13. He said ‘get you down from here, it is not for you that you may behave proudly living here, get out, you are
amongst the degraded ones.
14. Said, he’ give me time till the day they are raised up’.
15. He said, ‘you are given time.’
16. Said he, I swear that because You have seduced me, I shall necessarily sit on Your straight path in wait for
them.
17. Then, surely I will come near them, from before them and from behind them, and from their right and from
their left. And You will not find most of them thankful.
18. He said, ‘get out from here rejected, banished. Surely those of them who will follow you, I will fill Hell with you
all.”
19. And O Adam! Dwell you and your mate in the Paradise then eat there from where so ever you will, and
approach not this tree, otherwise you will be among transgressors.
20. Then the devil (Satan) put evil suggestion in their hearts, so that he might open to them the things of their
shame which were hidden from them and said, ‘your Lord has for bidden you from this tree only because you
may not become two angels or become immortals.
21. And he swore to them both that, I am well wisher of you both.
22. Then he caused them to fall with delusion, then when they tasted that tree, the things of their shame became
manifest to them, and they began to stick the leaves of the Paradise on their bodies. And their Lord said to
them, ‘Did I not forbid you from that tree and tell you that the Devil (Satan) is your manifest enemy’.
23. Both of them submitted, ‘O Our Lord! We have wronged ourselves, if You forgive us not and have not mercy on
us, then certainly we are among losers.’
24. He said, ‘Get down, in you one is enemy of the another and you are to stay in earth till a fixed time and there
is provision for a time.
25. He said, ‘you will be alive in it, and will die in it, and therefrom you will be raised.’
26. ‘O children of Adam! Undoubtedly, We have sent down towards you a dress that may cover your shameful
parts and one that be an adornment to you; and the dress of righteousness, that is the best. This is one of
Allah’s signs, that I they may be admonished.
27. ‘O children of Adam! Beware! Let not the devil (Satan) tempts you, as he brought your parents out from the
paradise, stripping them of their dress that they may see their shameful parts. Undoubtedly, he and his tribe
see you whence you see them not. Undoubtedly, We have made the devils friends of those who do not believe.
28. And when they commit any indecency, they say, ‘we found our forefathers on it and Allah commanded us so.
Then say, ‘undoubtedly Allah commands not acts of indecency.’ Do you allege against Allah what you know
not?
29. Say you, My Lord has commanded justice and set your faces aright at the time of each prayer, and worship
Him being exclusively His bondmen. As He originated you so you will return.’
30. A party He has shown path and the error of a party has been proved. They have taken the devils (Satan) as
guardians leaving Allah and they think that they are guided.
 
 
31. ‘O children of Adam! Take your adornment whenever you go to mosque and eat and drink and do not cross the
limit. Undoubtedly, the persons crossing the limit are not liked by Him.
32. Say you, ‘who has forbidden the adornment of Allah, which He brought forth for His bondmen and the pure
foods? Say you. ‘That is for the believers in the world and is exclusively for them on the Day of Resurrection.
Thus We explain fully the signs for the people who have knowledge.
33. Say you, ‘My Lord has forbidden the indecencies, which of them are open and which are hidden. And sin, and
unjust excesses, and that you associate with Allah that for which He has not sent down any warrant and that
you say of Allah what you know not.
34. And for every people there is a promise (been), then when their term will come, they cannot remain behind for
an hour nor they get ahead of it.
35. ‘O children of Adam! If the Messengers come to you from among you, reciting to you My signs! Then whoso
refrains from evil and amends, on them there is neither any fear nor any grief.
36. And those who have belied Our signs and waxed proud against them, they are the people of Hell, in it they are
to abide.
37. Then who is more unjust than he who has forged lie against Allah or has belied His signs? They will receive
what is written in their lot till when Our Messengers came to them for taking away their souls, then they say to
them, ‘where are those whom you used to worship beside Allah.’ They say, ‘they are lost from us.’ and they
bear witness against their own souls that they were infidels.
38. Allah says to them, enter the same Fire where other communities of Jinn and mankind went before you when a
community enters it, it curses the other; until when all have arrived therein, then the last will say to the first, ‘O
our Lord, these led us astray, then award them double torment Of the Fire. He will say, ‘all have double, but
you know not.’
39. And the first will say to the last, ‘you have then not been anyhow better than us, taste therefore the torment
the recompense of what you did’.
40. Those who belied Our signs and waxed proud against them, the gates of heaven will not be opened for them,
nor they will enter the paradise until the camel enters-through the eye of a needle. And thus We requite the
guilty.
41. To them Fire will be the bed and Fire will be the covering. And thus We requite the unjust.
42. And those who accepted faith and did good deeds to their strength. We put not burden on anyone beyond his
strength. They are companions of Paradise; they are to abide therein.
43. And We have taken out the rancours from their breasts. Beneath them will low rivers and they will say. ‘all
praise belong to Allah Who has guided us to this, and we could not have found the way, if Allah had not guided
us, undoubtedly, the Messengers of our Lord brought truth And it was proclaimed that this is the paradise you
have inherited the reward of your doings.
44. And the companions of the Heaven called the companions of the Hell, ‘We have found what our Lord promised
us to be true, then have you too found what your Lord promised you to be true? They said, ‘yes,’ and in
between them a caller called out: ‘the curse of Allah be upon the unjust.’
45. Who bar from the path of Allah and desire to make it Crooked and dis-believe in the Hereafter.
46. And between Heaven and Hell there is a veil and on the Heights, there shall be some men who will recognise
both groups by their fore-heads’ and call the people of Heaven, ‘(saying) peace be upon you, ‘these have not
entered into the Heaven but are greedy for it.
47. And when their eyes will turn towards the people of the Hell, they will say ‘O’ Our Lord! Keep us not with the
unjust people.
48. And the people of the heights will call to certain men whom they recognise by their foreheads, and will say,
‘what did your multitude avail you and that in which you took pride’?
49. Are these the people on whom you used to swear that Allah would not amend His mercy a least to them? They
were rather told, enter Paradise, no fear upon you nor any grief.’
50. And the companions of the Fire will call the companions of the Heaven that give us some benefit of your water
or of that Allah has provided for you as food. They will say ‘undoubtedly, Allah has for bidden these both to the
infidels.’
51. Those who made their religion as a plaything and amusement and the life of the world has deceived them.
Therefore to day We shall leave them as they had left the conception of meeting of this Day and as they used
to deny Our signs.
52. And surely We have brought them a Book which We have detailed with great knowledge, a guidance and
mercy to the people who believe.
53. What they are looking for, but only this that the result of the sayings of the Book should come before. The day
when the foretold result will occur, those who had forgotten it before will say. ‘Undoubtedly the Messengers of
 
 
our Lord had brought the truth, then, is there any intercessor for us who could intercede on our behalf? Or
could We be sent back so that we might do deeds other than that we did before. Surely they put their souls at
a loss, and I have been lost from those who used to calumniate.
54. Undoubtedly, your Lord is Allah, Who created the heavens and earth in six days, then established Himself on
the Throne befitting to His Dignity. He covers the night and day by each other following it swiftly, and made
the sun and moon and stars all subservient to His command. Behold! His is the creation and command. Blessed
is Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.
55. Call on your Lord humbly and secretly. Undoubtedly, He likes not those who cross the limit.
56. And spread not mischief in the earth after it has been set right and call on Him fearing and longing. Surely the
mercy of Allah is nigh to the good doers.
57. It is He who sends forth winds bearing good tidings before His mercy till they have carried heavy clouds, We
drive it towards any dead land, then send down water therewith. Then caused to grow varied fruits there with.
Thus shall We bring forth the dead, haply you may accept admonition.
58. And the land, which is good, its vegetation comes forth with the command of Allah and from that which is bad
comes forth nothing but very little. Thus we explain signs variedly for those who are grateful.
59. Undoubtedly, We sent Nuh towards his people then he said. ‘O my people! Worship Allah, you have no God
other than He. Surely I fear for you the torment of the Mighty Day.’
60. The leaders of his people said, ‘undoubtedly, we see you in apparent error.
61. Said he, ‘O my people no error is in me; but I am Messenger of the Lord of the Worlds’.
62. I deliver to you the messages of my Lord and wish your good and I know that from Allah, which you know not.
63. And have this surprised you that an admonition has come to you from your Lord through a man from amongst
you, so that he may warn you and you be god-fearing and haply you may be shown mercy?
64. Then they belied him, so We delivered him and those with him in the Ark and drowned those who belied Our
signs, certainly that was a blind group.
65. And to Aad send Hud from their brethren. He said, `O my people! worship Allah, you have no god other than
He.’ Then do you not fear?
66. The leaders of his people said, ‘surely, we find you foolish and we surely think you to be one of the liars.
67. Said he, ‘O my people there is no concern of foolishness with me, I am indeed a Messenger from the Lord of
the worlds.
68. I deliver to you the messages of my Lord and I am your trustworthy well wisher.
69. And have this surprised you that an admonition has come to you from your Lord through a man from amongst
you, so that he may warn you? And remember when He appointed you as successors of the people of Huh and
increased the stature of your body; then remember the bounties of Allah that haply you may fare well.
70. They said, ‘Have you come to us that we should worship Allah alone and leave what our fathers used to
worship, then bring you that you are promising for us if you are truthful.
71. He said, ‘surely there have befallen you the torment and wrath of Lord. Are you disputing with me only about
those names which you and your fathers have named for which Allah has sent down no authority? Wait then; I
also wait with you.
72. Then We delivered him and those with him by showing a great mercy from Us and cut off the roots of those
who used to belie Our signs and they were not believers.
73. And to Thamud We sent, Saleh from their brethren. He said. ‘O my people! worship Allah, you have no God
other than He. Undoubtedly, there has come to you bright proof from your Lord, this is a she-camel of Allah a
sign for you. So leave her that she may eat in Allah’s earth and touch her not with evil lest a painful torment
will overtake you.
74. And remember when He made you successors of Aad, and assigned you a place in the land that you build
palaces in its plains, and hew out houses in its mountains. Then remember the bounties of Allah and wander
not in the earth spreading mischief.
75. The proud leaders of his people said, ‘to the weak Muslims, ‘do you know that Saleh is a Messenger of his
Lord’? They said, ‘We believe in what has been sent with him.
76. The proud ones said, ‘in that which you belied we disbelieve.’
77. Then they hamstrung the she-camel and rebelled against the command of their Lord and said, ‘O Saleh, ‘bring
upon ‘ us that which you are promising for, if you are a Messenger.
78. Then the earthquake took them so in the morning they lay prostrate in their homes.
79. Then Saleh turned back his face from them and said, ‘O my people! Undoubtedly, I did deliver to you the
messages of my Lord, and wished your good, but you do not approve the well wishers.
80. And sent Lut, when he said to his people, do you commit that indecency which was ‘ not committed by any one
in, the world before you?
 
 
81. You rather approach men lustily instead of women on the contrary you people have crossed the limit.
82. And there was no answer of his people but this: They said, ‘turn them out of your town, these people aspire to
be pure.’
83. Then We delivered him and his family saves his wife, she was of those who remained behind.
84. And We rained down upon them a rain, then behold how was the end of the sinners?
85. And to Madyan We sent Shuaib from there brethren. He said, ‘O my people worship Allah, there is no God for
you other than He Undoubtedly, there has come to you bright proof from your Lord, then fill up the measure
and weight, and give not the people goods after diminishing and spread not mischief in the earth after fair
ordering This is good for you, if you believe.
86. And sit not on every path threatening and barring from Allah’s way to the wayfarers who have believed in Him,
and desiring crookedness in it: and remember, when you were few. He multiplied you, and beholds how was
the end of the mischief-makers.
87. And if there is a party of you who believe in that with which I have been sent and a party who believe not,
then wait till Allah decides between us; and Allah’s decision is the
88. The proud Chiefs of his people said, ‘O Shoaib, we swear that we will drive you out and the Muslims who are
with you from our town or you come back to our faith’. He said. What, even though we hate it?
89. Certainly we shall forge a lie against Allah, if we returned to your faith after Allah has delivered us from it. And
it is not for we Muslims that we should come back in your faith but that Allah Who is our Lord so willed. The
knowledge of our Lord comprehends everything. We have relied on Allah. O our Lord! Decide between us and
our people with truth and Your decision is the best.
90. And the infidel chiefs of his people said, ‘if you follow Shoaib, you shall certainly be the losers.’
91. Then an earthquake over took them; so in the morning they fell prostrate in their homes,
92. Those who belied Shoaib as if they had never been dwelling in those homes. Those who belied Shoaib were the
people who were ruined.
93. Then Shoaib turned his face from them and said,’ O my people, I have already delivered to you the messages
of my Lord and admonished for your good, how then should I lament over infidels.
94. And We have not sent any prophet in any town but We seized the people thereof with adversity and suffering
that anyhow they might lament.
95. Then We changed the place of evil with good until they became numerous and said, “no doubt, sufferings and
comforts visited our fathers,” then We seized them suddenly while they were unmindful.
96. And if the people of the towns had believed and feared, then We would surely have opened upon them
blessings from heavens and earth but they belied, then We arrested them on account of their doings.
97. Do the people of the towns not fear that Our torment might come upon them at night while they are sleeping?
98. Or do the people of the towns not fear that Our torment might come upon them in daylight while they are
playing?
99. Are they unaware of the secret devise of Allah? And none becomes fearless against the secret devise of Allah
but the losers.
100. And do those who inherited the land after the owners of it not get so much guidance that if We please, We
would have afflicted them for their sins? And We put a seal upon their hearts so that they hear nothing.
101. These are the towns the stories of which We relate to you, and undoubtedly, there came to them their
Messengers with bright proofs, but they were not able to believe what they had first rejected. Thus Allah put a
seal upon the, hearts of the infidels.
102. And We found not most ‘ of them true to their words, and necessarily, We found most of them disobedient.
103. Then, after them, We sent Moses towards Firawn (Pharaoh) and his Chiefs with Our Signs, but they did
injustice to those signs, see then how was the end of the mischief
104. And Moses said, ‘O, Firawn! I am a Messenger from the Lord of the Worlds.
105. It is my duty not to say anything about Allah but the truth. I have come to you all with sign from your Lord,
then let the children of Israel go with me.
106. He said, ‘If you have come with any Sign, then bring forth if you are truthful.
107. Then Moses cast his staff, it atonce became a serpent manifest.
108. And he drew forth his hand after putting it into his collar, then it began to shine before the beholders.
109. The Chiefs of the people of Pharaoh said, ‘this is indeed a magician knowing.’
110. He desires to turn you out from your land, what is your advice then?
111. They said, ‘put him off and his brother, and send into the city men to collect.
112. That they may bring to you every magician having knowledge.
113. And the magicians came to Pharaoh (Firawn) and said, we shall get some reward if we win.’
114. Firawn said, ‘yes’, and then you shall be near ones.
 
 
115. They said, ‘O Musa, either you throw first or we be the throwers’.
116. Musa said, ‘you throw,’ when they threw, they enchanted the eyes of the people and frightened them and
brought forth a great magic.
117. And We revealed to Musa, throw your staff, then suddenly it began to swallow their lying shows.
118. Then the truth was established and their works proved vain.
119. Then they were laid vanquished here and returned humiliated.
120. And the magicians were made to prostrate.
121. They said, ‘We believe in the Lord of the World.’
122. Who is the Lord of Musa and Haroon?
123. Firawn said, ‘you have believed in Him before I gave you leave. This is indeed a big plot which you all have
plotted in the city that you may drive forth its people therefrom; so now you shall know.’
124. I shall assuredly cut off your hands and your feet on alternate sides, and then I shall hang you all.
125. They said, ‘We are to return towards our Lord.
126. And what looked you bad of us, save this that we have believed in the signs of our Lord, when they came to
us, O our Lord pour upon us patience and cause us die as Muslims.
127. And the Chiefs of the people of Firawn said, ‘Do you leave Musa and his people for this that they may spread
mischief in the land and leave you and your gods? He said, ‘now we shall kill their sons and let live their
daughters and surely we are dominant over them.
128. Musa said to his people, ‘seek the help of Allah and have patience, no doubt, Allah is the owner of the earth.
Makes successor whomsoever He pleases of His bondmen. And the end is in the hand of the God-fearing
129. They said, ‘We were oppressed before your coming to us and since you have come to us’, He said, ‘it is near
that your Lord may destroy your foe and make you successor in the land to see then how you act.
130. And no doubt, We seized the people of Firawn with years of dearth and scarcity of fruits, haply they may
accept admonition.
131. Then whenever, they pot good, they used to say, ‘this is for us’, and whenever evil smote them they took it as
bad omen with Musa and those with him. Behold!, their ill fortune is with Allah, but most of them do not know.
132. And they said, ‘whatever the nature of a Sign you may bring to us to enchant us therewith, we are in no way to
believe you.
133. Then We sent upon them the flood, and the locusts and the lice, and the frogs and the blood – distinct signs,
then they waxed proud and they were a sinful people.
134. And whenever the torment fell upon them, they used to say, ‘O Musa, pray for us to your Lord because of that
covenant of His which is with you. No doubt, if you would remove from us the torment, we would certainly
believe in you and will send with you the children of Israel.
135. But whenever We removed the torment from them for a term to which they were to reach, they retracted.
136. We then took vengeance on them, therefore We drowned them in the river, because they belied Our Signs and
were unaware of them.
137. And We made a people who were already suppressed, inheritors of the eastern and western parts of that land
in which We put Our blessings And the gracious promise of your Lord was fulfilled for the children of Israel, the
recompense of their patience. And We destroyed whatever Firawn and his people made and what they used to
erect.
138. And We brought the children of Israel across the river, and then they came upon a people sitting devotedly
before their idols. They said, ‘O Musa, make for us a God just as they have so many gods. He said, ‘Surely you
are an ignorant people’.
139. This condition in which they are, is of destruction and whatever they are doing is fully void.
140. He said, “Shall I seek for you a God other than Allah whereas He has exalted you above all peoples.
141. And remember, when We delivered you from the people of Firawn who afflicted you with evil punishment,
slaughtering your sons and letting your daughters live. And therein was the great bounty of your Lord.
142. And We made Musa a promise of thirty nights and completed adding ten more in them, so the promise of his
Lord was completed by forty nights. And Musa said to his brother, Haroon, ‘be my vicegerent among my people
and do right and follow not the way of mischief makers.’
143. And when Musa came to Our appointed time and his Lord spoke to him, he submitted, ‘O my Lord! Show me
Your sight that I may behold You, Said He, you shall never see me; but look towards this mountain, if it
remains standing at its place, then soon you will see Me. Then when his Lord made His light shine on the
mountain, He broke it into pieces; and Musa fell down unconscious. Then when he came to senses, he said,
hollowed be you turn towards you and I am the first of the Muslims.
144. Said Allah, ‘O Musa, I have chosen you from amongst the people by My Messages and by My word. Take then
what I have given you and be of the grateful.
 
 
145. And We wrote for him on the Tablets of everything an admonition, and details of everything, and said, ‘O
Musa, take it with firmness and bid your people to follow the best of it. Soon I shall show you the abode of the
dis-obedients.
146. And I shall turn from My Signs those who wish greatness in the earth unjustly, And even if they see all the
signs, they will not believe therein, and if they see the path of guidance, they will not like to walk in it; and if
they see the path of error, they will be ready to adopt it. This is so because they belied Our Signs and posed
themselves unaware.
147. And those who have belied Our Signs and the meeting of the Hereafter their all deeds are wasted. What they
will get in recompense but, the same which, they used to do.
148. And after Musa, his people made a calf out of their ornaments, a lifeless body, producing a lowing sound. Did
they not see that neither it talked to them and nor guided them to any way? They took it, and they were
unjust.
149. And when they regretted and understood that they had strayed, they said, ‘If our Lord have not mercy upon us
and forgives us not, then we are ruined’.
150. And Musa returned to his people full of anger, peeved, he said, that ‘how badly you acted in my place after
me’? ‘Did you hasten from the Commends of your Lord’? And he threw down the tablets and began to pull his
brother (Haroon) towards him catching hold of the hair of his brother head. He said, ‘O son of my mother, the
people deemed me week and were about to kill me, so do not make the enemies laugh over me and place me
not with the unjust people’.
151. He submitted, ‘O my Lord, forgive my brother, and me and cause us to enter Your mercy and You are the most
Merciful of the merciful.
152. Undoubtedly, those who had already taken the calf for themselves, soon the wrath and disgrace of their Lord
are to reach them in the life of the world. And thus we recompense those who cast aspersions,
153. And those who committed evils and thereafter repented and accepted faith, then after that your Lord is
Forgiving, Merciful.
154. And when the anger of Musa was appeased, he took up the tablets, and in their writing there is guidance and
mercy for those who fear their Lord.
155. And Musa chose seventy men of his people for Our promised appointment, then when earthquake overtook
them, Musa submitted, ‘O my Lord, had You wished, then You would have destroyed them and me before. Will
you kill us for what our foolish ones have done’? That is not but your test, whereby you, cause astray whom
you will, and guide whom you will. You are our Protector, You forgive us and have mercy upon us, and you are
the best of the forgivers.
156. And prescribe for us in this world good and in the Hereafter, no doubt, we have returned to You. He said, ‘My
punishment, I inflict whom I will, and My mercy encompasses all things. Then soon I shall prescribe it for those
who fear God and pay the poor due and believe in Our Signs.
157. Those who will serve the Messenger, unlettered the, Communicator of hidden news when they will find with
them have written in the Taurat and Injeel. He will bid them to do good and will forbid them from doing evil,
and will make lawful for them clean things and will forbid for them unclean things, and will take off from them
that burden and shackles which were upon them. Then those who believe in him and honour him and help him
and follow that light which has been sent down with him, they are the persons who attained their objects.
158. Say you, ‘O mankind’; I am Messenger to you all from Allah to Whom belongs the kingdom of the heavens and
of the earth. None is to be worshiped except He, He gives life and causes death, believe then in Allah and His
Messenger the unlettered, the Communicator of hidden news that he believes in Allah and His words; and
serve him so that you may be guided.’
159. And of the people of Musa, there is a community that tells the path of truth and does justice therewith.
160. And We divided them in twelve tribes, various communities. And We revealed to Musa, when his people asked
him for water that strike with your staff this rock, then there gushed forth from it twelve Springs. Every
community recognised its drinking place. And We made clouds as shades over them, and sent down Manna
and Salwa upon them. Eat of the clean things We provided for you, and they harmed Us not, but they harmed
their own souls.
161. And remember when it was said to them, “Dwell in this town and eat from it whatever you like, and say, ‘our
sins may be removed and enter the gate, prostrating, We shall forgive you yours sins. Soon We shall give more
to righteous ones.
162. Then the unjust of them changed the word contrary to that what was ordered to them, then We sent down
upon them torment from the heaven, the recompense of their injustice.
163. And ask them the condition of the town that was on the seashore; when they crossed the limit in the matter of
sab-bath, when on the day of Sab-bath their fish came swimming before them, and the day that was not of
 
 
Sabbath, they did not come. Thus, We used to try them on account of their dis-obedience.
164. When a group among them said, ‘Why do you admonish those whom Allah is to kill or to chastise with a severe
torment’. They said, ‘as an excuse before your Lord, and that haply they may fear’.
165. Then when they forgot what they had been admonished, We rescued those who forbade from evil, and caught
the unjust in a vile torment the recompense of their disobedience.
166. Then again when they rebelled against the Command of prohibition, We said to them, ‘be you apes, driven
away.’
167. And when your Lord proclaimed that necessarily till the Day of Resurrection, He would continue to send such
against them who would make them taste evil punishment. Undoubtedly, your Lord necessarily, is swift in
retribution, and undoubtedly. He is Forgiving, Merciful.
168. And We scattered them into communities in the earth, some of them are righteous and some of them
otherwise and We tried them with good things and evil that haply they nay return.
169. Then after them came such degenerate successors who inherited the Book. They take the goods of this world
and say, ‘now we shall be for given’. And if more goods the like of them came to them, they would take them.
Was not the covenant of the Book taken from them, that they should say nothing concerning Allah but the
truth, and they have read that? And undoubtedly, the last abode is better for the God-fearing. Have you then
no wisdom?
170. And those who hold fast to the Book and establish prayer. We waste not the reward of the righteous.
171. And when We raised mountain over them as that is a canopy and they thought that it will fall upon them, hold
fast what We have given to you and remember what is therein, that haply you may be God-fearing.
172. And O beloved Prophet remember, when your Lord brought forth from the loin of Adam’s children their seed
and made themselves witnesses against own selves,’ ‘Am not your Lord? All said, ‘Why not we all bear witness’,
lest you should say on the Day of Resurrection, that we were not aware of it.
173. Or lest you should say, Polytheism was committed by our forefathers before, and we were their offspring! Will
you then destroy us for what was done by wrongdoers?
174. And thus We explain Our; signs variedly and in order that, they may return.
175. And O beloved Prophet! Relate to them the story of him to whom We gave Our signs then he stepped away
clearly from them, then Satan followed him and he became of the misguided.
176. And if We had willed, We would have lifted him on account of Our Signs, but he, clung to the earth and
followed his desires, then his condition is like a dog, if you attack him, he brings his tongue out and if you leave
him, he brings his tongue out. This is the condition of those who belied Our Signs. So you recount them the
admonition haply they may ponder.
177. What a bad example is of those who belied Our Signs, and they did wrong their own souls.
178. Whom so Allah guides, he is on the right path, and whom so Allah leads astray, those, they remained in loss.
179. Undoubtedly, We have created for Hell many jinn and men, they have hearts, but understand not therewith
and the eyes, they see not there with and the ears, they hear not therewith. They are like cattle, nay, more
misguided. They are indeed lying heedless.
180. And to Allah belongs all the best names, so call Him by them, and leave those who go out from truth with
regard to His names, they will soon get for what they have done.
181. And out of Our making are a community who tell the truth and do justice therewith.
182. And those who belied Our Signs, soon We shall carry them gradually towards torment whence they will know
not.
183. And I will let loose them. Undoubtedly, My secret plan is the firmest.
184. Do they not ponder that there is no relation of insanity to their companion? He is only a warner manifests.
185. Do they not look into the kingdom of the heavens and the earth, and what things that Allah has made, and that
perhaps their term may have come night? Then in what discourse they will believe thereafter
186. Whomsoever Allah leads astray none is to guide him. And He leaves them to wander in their Contumacy.
187. They ask you concerning the Hour that when it is to come, Say you ‘the knowledge of it is only with my Lord,
He alone will disclose it at its proper time’. It is lying heavy on the heavens and earth; it shall not come upon
you but of a sudden. They ask you, as you have already investigated it well say you, ‘the knowledge of it is
only with Allah’, but most people do not know.
188. Say you, ‘I am not independent for doing good and bad to my own self, but as Allah please. And if I would
have known Unseen, then I would have gathered ample good, and no evil would have touched me, I am only a
warner and giver of glad tidings to a people who believe.
189. It is He Who created you from a single soul, and made therefrom his mate that he may find rest in her, then
when the male covered her, she bore a light burden, then carried it about, then when she grew heavy, both
prayed to their Lord, “necessarily if You would give us a child befitting, then undoubtedly, we shall be grateful.”
 
 
190. Then when He gave them a befitting child, they ascribed His associates, in respect of His bestowal but Allah is
exalted above from their polytheism.
191. Do they associate those who make nothing and they are themselves created?
192. And neither they can give any help to them, nor can they help themselves.
193. And if you call them towards guidance, they will not follow you. It is same to you whether you call them or you
remain silent.
194. Undoubtedly, those! Whom you worship besides Allah, are bondsmen like you, then call upon them and they
respond to you, if you are truthful.
195. Have they feet to walk with? Or have they hands to hold with? Or have they eyes to see with? Or have they
ears to hear with? Say you, ‘Call upon your associates and then try your guile on me and give me no respite’.
196. Undoubtedly, my protector is Allah Who sent down the Book and He befriends the righteous.
197. And those, whom you worship besides Him, can not help you, nor they help them selves.
198. And if you call them towards guidance, they hear not. And you see them looking at you, and they see nothing.
199. (O beloved Prophet)! Adopt forgiveness and bid to good and turn away from the Ignorant.
200. And (O listener!) if the evil-one (Satan) give you any pricking, then seek refuge of Allah. Undoubtedly, it is He
Who is Hearing, Knowing.
201. Undoubtedly, those who fear Allah, when a thought of Satan touches them, become careful, at the same time
their eyes are opened.
202. And those who are brothers of Satan, they drag them on towards error, then they relax not.
203. And (O beloved Prophet)! When you bring not to them any Sign, they say, ‘Why have you not made it yourself?
Say you, ‘I follow only what is revealed to me from my Lord; This is an eye opener from your Lord and
guidance and mercy for the Muslims.
204. And when the Quran is recited, hear it patiently and be silent so that you may have mercy.
205. And remember, your Lord within yourself, humbly and fearfully, and without uttering a voice from the tongue,
morning and evening and be not you amongst heedless.
206. Undoubtedly, those who are with your Lord wax not proud from His worship, and chant His hollowness and to
Him they prostrate. [^] (SAJDA) 1

Total Verses: 75
ALLAH in the name of The Most Affectionate, the Merciful.

them whom you know not; Allah Knows them. And whatever you will spend in the path of Allah, shall be repaid
to you in full and in no way you will be in loss.

their hearts but Allah have united their hearts. Undoubtedly! It is He, Dominant, Wise.

thousand by the command of Allah. And Allah is with the patient.

in your hearts, then He will give you better than what has been; taken from you and will forgive you’ And Allah

treacherously with Allah before; therefore He gave so many under your control. And Allah is. Knowing, Wise.
72. Undoubtedly, those who believed and left their hearth and homes for Allah and fought with their wealth and
their lives in the way of Allah, and those who gave shelter and helped they are heirs one of another. And those
who believed and did not emigrate, you have no duty to their inheritance unless they emigrate, if they seek
help from you in the matter of the religion, then it is obligatory upon you to help them, but against a people
between whom and you there is an agreement. And Allah is seeing your doing.

branded therewith. This is what you had hoarded for yourselves, now taste the hoarding.

wealth and their lives. And Allah knows well the duty-bound.

hearts are to be conciliated for Islam, and for the freeing of slaves, and for debtors, and for spending in the
way of Allah and for the traveller. This has been ordained by Allah. And Allah is Knowing, Wise.
61. And of them some are those who hurt the Prophet and say, ‘He is an ear, say ‘He is an ear for good of you,
believes in Allah and believes the words of Muslims, and is a mercy for those who are Muslims among you.’ And

he will abide for ever? This is the great humiliation

hearts. Say you ‘Mock on, truly Allah is about to reveal what you fear.’

mock at Allah and His signs and His Messengers?’

then We shall chastise others because they were guilty.
67. The hypocrites’ men and women are the birds of the same feather; they bid evil and forbid from doing good,
and (they) keep their hands closed. They have left Allah then Allah has left them. No doubt the hypocrites are
the confirmed disobedients.

will abide forever. That is sufficient for them, and the curse of Allah is upon them, and for them is the lasting
torment.

who are losers.
70. Have they not received the news of those before them the people of Nooh, and Aad and Thamud, and the
people of Ibrahim, and the men of Madian and the overthrown towns? Their Messengers had brought to them
bright evidences; then it was not befitting to Allah that He might have wronged them, but they were
themselves unjust to their souls.
71. And the Muslim men and women are friends to one another, bid for good and forbid evil and establish prayer
and pay the poor-due (Zakat) and obey Allah and His Messenger. These are they on whom soon Allah will have
mercy. Undoubtedly Allah is, Dominant, Wise.

became infidels after accepting Islam and they had desired that Which they could not get; and what they felt

for them, and if they turn their faces then Allah will chastise them with a severe torment in the world and the
Hereafter and on the earth they shall have neither any supporter nor any helper.
75. And of them, there are some who had covenanted with Allah that if He will give us out of His grace then we
 
 
shall surely give in charity and we shall surely become good men.
76. Then when Allah gave them out of His grace, they became niggardly of it and turned away turning their faces.

acted against what they had promised to Allah and the recompense of that they used to lie.
78. Are they not aware that Allah Knows the secrets of their hearts and their whisper and Allah is the well Knower
of all hidden things?
79. Those who blame those muslims who give charity willingly and those who get not but with their hard labour, so
they laugh at them. Allah will punish them for their laughing and for them is the painful.
80. Ask you forgiveness for them or ask not. If you will ask forgiveness for them seventy times, Allah will never
forgive them. This is because that they have rejected Allah and His Messenger. And Allah guides not the
disobedients.
81. Those who were left behind delighted at this that they remained sitting behind the Messenger and they did not
like that they may fight in the way of Allah with their wealth and lives and said Come not out in this treat’ say
you ‘the fire of the Hell is the hottest! In any manner they would have understood!
82. Let them laugh little and weep much, in recompense what they used to earn.
83. Then if, O beloved Prophet! Allah returns you to a party of them, and they ask you leave to go forth to fight,
then say you ‘Never shall you march forth with me, nor ever fight with any enemy of me. You chose to sit at
home the first time, then remain sitting with those who remained behind.’
84. And pray you never over any of their dead, and not stand over his grave. No doubt, they rejected Allah and His
Messenger and died while they were disobedient.
85. Be not astonished over their wealth and children Allah only intends to punish them there with in this world, and
that they part with their souls while they are infidels.
86. And when any Sura (Chapter) is sent down, that believe in Allah and fight with His Messenger, then the men of
capability among them ask leave of you and say ‘Leave us to remain with those who sit behind’.
87. They like that they should remain with the women left behind, and their hearts are sealed up, so that they
understand nothing.
88. But the Messenger and those who believed with him, fought with their wealth and lives. And it is they for
whom are goods, and it is they who reached to their goal.
89. Allah has prepared for them Gardens under which rivers flow; they shall abide forever therein. This is the
attainment of supreme object

to Allah and His Messenger sat behind. Soon a painful torment shall befall to the infidels of them.

are sincere to Allah and His Messenger. There is no way against the good-doers. And Allah is Forgiving,
Merciful.

mount you’ so they return back and their eyes overflow with tears because of this grief that they could not find
the ability to spend.
93. The accountability is only of those who ask leave of you and they are rich. They liked to sit behind with the
women and Allah has sealed up their hearts; so they know nothing.
94. They will make excuses to you when you will return to them. Say you, ‘make no ‘ excuses, we will never
believe you, Allah has already given your news to us. And now Allah and His messenger will see your works
then you will be returned to Him Who knows all unseen and visible, He will tell you what you used to do.
95. Now they will swear by Allah before you, when you will return back to them in order that you may not mind of
them, then yes, mind them not. They are wholly filthy and their destination is Hell a recompense what they
used to earn.
96. They swear before you that you may be pleased with them. But if you are pleased with them, then no doubt,
Allah will not be pleased with a people dis-obedient.
97. They villagers are more stubborn in infidelity and hypocrisy and they are only worthy of this that they remain
ignorant of the commands which, Allah has sent down upon His messenger. And Allah is knowing, Wise.
98. And among the villagers some are those who regard hat they spend in the way of Allah as fine, and remain
waiting of misfortunes coming to you. On them is the evil turn. And Allah Hears. Knows.
99. And among the villagers some are those who believe in Allah and the Last Day, and regard what they spend as
‘ approaches to Allah and means of taking blessings of the messenger. Yes, that is the means of nearness for
them to enter into His mercy. Undoubtedly! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful,
100. And the first and foremost emigrants and helpers and those who followed them with good. Allah is pleased
with them and they are pleased with Allah and for them, He has prepared gardens under which rivers flow.
 
 
This is the great success.
101. And some villagers around you are hypocrites and some of the dwellers of Madina too, hypocrisy has become
their habit. You know them not. We know them. We will soon torment them twice. Then they will be resumed
to a great torment.
102. And there are some others who acknowledge their sins and mixed up a good deed with another evil. It is near
that Allah may accept their repentance. No doubt Allah is Forgiving. Merciful.
103. ‘O beloved prophet! Realise the poor-due (Zakat) out of their wealth. to purify them and cleanse them
therewith and pray good for them. No doubt. your prayer is solace for their hearts. And Allah Hears. Knows.
104. Are they not aware that only Allah accepts the repentance of His bondmen and takes the charities in His
authoritative Hand Himself, and that it is Allah Who is the Relenting. The Merciful.
105. And say you. ‘work on, now Allah will behold your work and so His messenger and the muslims. And you will
soon be returned to Him Who knows all unseen and visible. Then He will inform you what you used to do.
106. And some other have been deferred to Allah’s commandment. Whether He may torment them or may accept
their repentance. And Allah is Knowing Wise
107. And those who have built a mosque in order to injure and because of infidelity and to cause dissension among
muslims and as an ambush for him who is already against Allah and His messenger from before. And they will
surely swear that we desired only good. And Allah bears witness that they are certainly liars.
108. You stand never in that mosque. No doubt the mosque whose foundation has been laid on righteousness from
the very first day is worthy that you may stand therein. There in are those who desire to be well purified and
Allah loves the pure.
109. Then is he who laid foundation upon the fear of Allah and His pleasure better or he who laid his foundation on
the brink of a falling pit, then he fell with it in the fire of the Hell? And Allah does not give way to the people
unjust.
110. The building, which they have built, will continue to waver in their hearts unless their hearts may cut into
pieces. And Allah is Knowing, Wise.
111. No doubt. Allah has purchased from the muslims their lives and their belongings against this return, that for
them is Paradise, they fight in the way of Allah, then they kill and are killed; true promise on His generous
responsibility in the Taurah and the Injeel and the Quran. And who is, true to his words than Allah’? Rejoice
then in your trade ‘ which you have done with Him And it is this which is, the great triumph.
112. Those who repent, those who worship, those who praise, those who fast, those who bow, those who prostrate,
those who tell good and forbid evil and those who watch the limits of Allah. And give you glad tidings to
Muslims.
113. It is not worthy for the prophet and the believers to ask forgiveness for the associators, even though they are
relatives, after it has been made clear to them that they are men of Hell.
114. And Abraham’s asking forgiveness for his father was not but on account a promise, he had made to Him But
when it was made clear to him that he is an enemy of Allah, he dis-associated him self from him No doubt,
Abraham is a most lament, clement.
115. And it is not the attribute of Allah that He should lead astray any people after He has guided them. Until He
makes clear to them as to what they have to guard against. Undoubtedly, Allah knows every thing.
116. Assuredly! It is Allah for Whom is the Kingdom of heavens and earth. He gives life and causes death. And you
had no protector nor helper beside Allah.
117. No doubt, blessings of Allah turned towards the Communicator of the hidden news (prophet) and those
emigrants and helpers who sided with him in the hour of hardship. After it that the hearts of some of them
were nearly to be swerved aside. Then He turned towards them with blessing. Undoubtedly. To them He is
Most Kind. Merciful.
118. And to the three who were left behind, so much so that the earth being so vast became strait to them, and
they became tired of their own lives, and they believed that there is no refuge from Allah but with Him. Then,
He accepted their repentance that they might remain repenting. Undoubtedly, it is Allah Who is Relenting, the
Merciful.
119. ‘O believers! Fear Allah and be with the truthful.
120. It was not proper for the inhabitants of Madina and the villagers around them to remain sitting behind the
messenger of Allah, nor that they should consider their own lives more dear than his life. This is so because
whatever they face as thirst or distress or hunger in the way of Allah, and wherever they tread a place which
enrages the infidels for all these things, good deed is written for them. Assuredly Allah wastes not the reward
of the good.
121. And whatever they spend, small or great and the valley they cross, all is written for them so that Allah may
recompense them for their best deeds.
 
 
122. And it is not possible for Muslims that all should come out. Then why should not a party from each group
should come out that they may gain understanding of religion and warn their people after coming back to
them, haply they may guard themselves.
123. ‘O believers’ fight the infidels who are close to you, and let them find in you harshness and know that Allah is
with the duty-bound.
124. Whenever a Sura is sent down. Then anyone of them begins to say, ‘Which of you has this increased in faith?
Then as for those who believe, it has increased them in faith. And they are rejoicing.
125. And as for those in whose hearts there is disease, it has increased them in filthiness upon filthiness and they
died while they are infidels.
126. Do they not observe that? They are being tried every year once or twice. Even then neither they repent nor
accept admonition.
127. And whenever any Sura is sent down, they begin to look at on each other. Whether any one watches you?
Then they turn away. Allah has turned away their hearts, because they are a people who do not understand.
128. Assuredly there has come to you a messenger from among yourselves, heavy upon him is your suffering;
ardently desirous of your welfare, and to Muslims is most Kind and Merciful.
129. If then they turn their faces, then say you, ‘Allah is sufficient for me, none is to be worshiped except He. I put
my trust in Him, and He is the ‘Lord of Supreme Throne.’

with bright evidences. And they were not such as to believe. Thus, We recompense the guilty.

15. And when Our clear signs are recited unto them, then those who hope not to meet Us begin to say, ‘bring a
Quran other than this, or alter it. Say you, ‘it is not for me to change it on my own accord. I only follow, what

16. Say you. ‘If Allah had willed, then I would have not recited it to you. Nor would He have made it known to you;

have no good.
18. And they worship besides Allah that which neither harms them nor does any good and say, ‘these are our
intercessors with Allah’. Say you, ‘Do you tell to Allah the thing which is not in His Knowledge either in heavens
or on earth. Holy is He and exalted is He from their association.

excesses are only against your own selves, enjoy it till your living in the world, then you are to return towards

which the vegetation of earth came out in abundance of which men and cattle eat, till, when the earth took on
its ornament and was fully adorned, and its owners thought that it is under their authority; there came upon it
Our command by night or by day, then We made it mown down as if it had not existed yesterday. Thus, We

32. This then is Allah. Your true Lord. What remains then after the truth but erring then where are you turning
away.
33. Thus, the word of your Lord is proved against the transgressors, that they will not believe.
34. Say you, ‘Is there any of your associates who originate creation, then reproduce after destruction. Say you,
‘Allah originates, then He will reproduce after destruction,’ then where are you turning away blindly
35. Say you, ‘Is there any of your associates that may guide to the truth? Say you, ‘Allah guides to the truth.’ Then
should He Who guides to the truth be followed; or he who himself finds not the guidance unless is guided?
Then what happened to you? How do you judge?
36. And most of them follow not but conjecture. Undoubtedly, conjecture avails not against truth. No doubt, Allah
 
 
knows their works.
37. And this is not the attribute of this Quran, that any one might fabricate it without being sent down by Allah,
Yes it is a confirmation of the former Books and is the detail explanation of what is written in the Table, there
is no doubt in it, it is from the Lord of the worlds.

Lord knows well the mischief-makers.

not?

44. Undoubtedly. Allah does not do injustice to mankind. but men do injustice to them selves.
45. And the Day when He will raise them, as if they had not stayed in the world but an hour of that Day, they shall

been judged unto them with equity and they would not have been wronged.
48. And they say, ‘when this promise will come, if you are truthful.’
49. Say, you ‘I have no (Personal) power of the good and bad for myself but whatever Allah pleases.’ For every
nation there is fixed term. When their term will come, then neither they can stay behind for an hour, nor can
they advance.
50. Say you, ‘tell me, if His torment comes upon you by night or day, then what is there in for which the guilty are
in hurry’?
51. Will you then believe therein when it would occur actually? Do you now believe, whereas you were hastening
for it before?
52. Then it will be said to the wrongdoers. ‘Taste the torment everlasting. You will get nothing more as
recompense but what ever you used to earn.’
53. And they ask you. ‘Is that true,’ Say you, ‘Yes by my Lord? No doubt, that is necessarily true. And you cannot
get it tired.
54. And if every unjust soul would have owned all that is in the earth, then it would certainly ransom for itself. And
they were secretly ashamed in their hearts, when they saw the torment, and it was decided between them with
equity and they shall not be wronged.
55. Listen, no doubt, it is of Allah only whatever is in the heavens and earth Listen, verily Allah’s promise is true,
but most of them know not.

57. ‘O people! There has come an admonition to you from your Lord, and healing of hearts, and a guidance and a
mercy for the believers.
58. Say- you, ‘only Allah’ grace and only His mercy, on it therefore let them rejoice. That is better than all their
wealth.
59. Say you, ‘be-think what Allah has sent down to you of provision, you have yourselves made thereof lawful and
unlawful.’ Say you, ‘Has Allah permitted it to you, or you forge lie against Allah?
60. And what do they fancy who forge lie against Allah, that what will be their position on the Day of Resurrection?
No doubt Allah is graceful to people, but most of them are not thankful.
61. And you are busy in any work, and recite any Quran from Him, and you perform any act, We are witnesses
over you when do you commence it. And there is nothing hidden from your Lord even an atom’ weight in the
earth or in heaven, and there is nothing smaller than that or greater but it is in a luminous Book.
62. Listen carefully! No doubt, there is no fear nor any grief upon the friends of Allah
63. Those who believed and keep up their duty.
64. For them are glad tidings in the life of the world and in the Hereafter. The words of Allah are not changed.
That indeed is the supreme triumphs.
65. And you be not grieved by their words. No doubt, all honour belongs to Allah. ‘It is He who hears, knows.
 
 
66. Listen, no doubt, all who are in the heavens and all in the earth belong to Allah. And what they are following
those. who are calling associates besides Allah? They follow nothing but fancy. And they are doing nothing but
conjecturing.
67. It is He Who has made night for you, that you may rest therein’ and made the day enlightening. No doubt,
therein are signs for those who listen.
68. They spoke, Allah has taken to Him a son’ ‘Holy is He? The self-sufficient, to him belongs whatever is in the
heavens and whatever is in the earth you have no authority for this. Do you say against Allah that you know
not?
69. Say you. ‘Those who forge lie against Allah, they will never prosper.’
70. They are to pull on a little in the world. Then they are to return to Us. Then We shall make them taste a severe
torment. The recompense of their infidelity
71. Recite to them the story of Nuh. When he said to his people, ‘O my people! If my standing up and reminding
the signs of Allah has offended you, then I relied on Allah only. Then do your work untidily. And complete your
work with your false deities, so that nothing may be obscure to you in your work, then do against me what you
can and respite me not.
72. Then if you turn your face, then I ask not any wage from you. My wage is only with Allah, and I have been
ordered to be of Muslims.
73. But they belied him, then We delivered him and those who were with him in the ark and We made them
successors. And We drowned those who belied Our signs, then see what was the end of those who were
warned.
74. Then after him We sent other messengers towards their people. then they brought to them bright proofs, but
they were not to believe what they had already belied before. Thus We seal the hearts of the transgressors.
75. Then after them We sent Musa and Haroon to Firawn and his courtiers with Our Signs, then they waxed proud
and they were a sinful people.
76. Then when truth came to them from Us, they said this is surely a manifest magic.
77. Musa said, ‘Do you say such with regard to the truth when it came to you? Is this magic? And magician does
not attain to their goal.
78. They said, ‘Have you come to us. So that you may turn us from that upon which we found our forefathers, and
that you two may have greatness in the land? And we are not to believe you too.
79. And Firawn said, ‘Bring to me every magician of knowledge.’
80. Then when the magicians came, Musa said to them, ‘Cast down whatever you are to cast.’
81. Then when they had cast down, Musa said, ‘what you have brought is magic. Now, Allah will nullify it. Allah
rectifies not the work of mischief-makers.
82. And Allah shows the truth as truth by His words, may the culprits be displeased.
83. Then none believed Muse but few from the seed of his people fearing from Firawn and his courtiers lest they
may compel them to fall back ‘(from Din). And no doubt, Firawn was high headed in the land, and no doubt he
crossed the limit.
84. Musa said, ‘O my people, if you have believed in Allah, then rely upon Him alone, if you are Muslims.’
85. They said, ‘We relied only upon Allah. Our Lord makes us not a test for unjust people.
86. And deliver us by Your Mercy from the infidels.
87. And We revealed to Musa and his brother, build houses for your people in Egypt. And make your house the
place of prayer, and establish prayer and give glad tidings to Muslims.’
88. And Musa submitted, ‘O our Lord! You have given Firawn and his chiefs adornment and wealth in the life of the
world, O our Lord! That they may lead people astray from Your path.’ O our Lord! Destroy their wealth and
harden their hearts, so that they may not believe until they see the painful torment.’
89. He said, ‘The prayers of you both have been accepted. Then be steadfast, and follow not the path of
ignorants.’
90. And We led the children of Israel across the sea. Then Firawn and his armies followed them with contumacy
and oppression, until, when the drowning overtook him. He said, ‘I believed, that there is no true diety except
He in whom the children of Israel believed, and I am Muslim.
91. What! Now! And you had been disobedient from before and you had been mischief monger.
92. Today We shall cause to swim your dead body, so that you might be a sign to those after you. And no doubt,
people are heedless of Our signs.
93. And no doubt, We gave a place of honour to the children of Israel and provided them with the pure things;
they differed not, until the knowledge came to them. No doubt, your Lord will decide between them on the Day
of Resurrection in that with regard to which they differed.
94. And O listener! If you are in some doubt regarding what We have sent down towards you, then ask those who
 
 
recite the Book before you, Indeed the truth has come to you from your Lord, then you never be of those who
doubt.
95. And never be of those who belied the signs of Allah otherwise you shall be of the losers.
96. No doubt, those against whom the word of your Lord has been proved correctly will not believe.
97. Though all signs should come to them, until they see the painful torment.
98. Then why there has not been any town that believed so that its belief would have profited, but yes, the people
of Yunus. When they believed. We removed from them the torment of disgrace in the life of the world and
allowed them to pull on for a time.
99. And if your Lord had willed, all those who are in the earth would have believed together. Will you, then force
people until they become Muslims?
100. And no soul has power to believe but by the leave of Allah. And He lays His torment upon those who have no
wisdom.
101. Say you, ‘behold what is in the heavens and in the earth’! And signs and messengers give nothing to those.
Who are not to believe.
102. Then what for they are waiting, but the like of the days of those who passed away before them? Say you. ‘then
wait I am too with you, in waiting.’
103. Then We shall deliver Our Messengers and the believers It is thus binding on Our mercy to deliver the Muslims
104. Say you,’ ‘O people! It you are in any doubt as to my religion, then I shall worship not those whom you worship
besides Allah, yes I worship that Allah Who will cause you to die, and I have been commanded to be of
believers.
105. And that: keep your face straight for the religion leaving all others, and never be of the polytheists.
106. And worship not besides Allah that which can neither profit you nor harm you. Then if you do, then at that time
thou would not be of the unjust.
107. And if Allah touches you with any harm, then there is none to remove it save he, and if He desires good for
you, then there is none to repel His grace. He causes it to reach whomsoever of His bondsmen He wills. And
He is the Forgiving, the Merciful.
108. Say you, ‘O people! The truth has come to you from your Lord, then who ever came aright, he came aright for
his own good, and whoever strayed, strayed against himself and I am not a guardian over you.
109. And follow that which is revealed to you and have patience until Allah decrees And He is the Best of Judges.

they used to mock at shall encompass them.
9. And if We let man taste Our any mercy, then take it away from him, surely he is despairing, ungrateful.

22. Willing or not willing, it is they who are the greatest losers in the Hereafter.
23. No doubt those who believed, and did good deeds and turned humbly towards their Lord, they are the men of
Heaven, therein they shall abide.
24. The condition of both parties is like one the blind and deaf and the other seeing and hearing is the case of the
two alike? Do you then not take heed?
25. And no doubt, We sent Nuh to his people saying that I am for you a clear warner.
26. That worships none save Allah. Verily, I fear for you the torment of a painful day.
27. Then the chiefs of the unbelievers of his people spoke, ‘We see you a man like us, and we see not that any one
who has followed you but the meanest of us inadvertently, and we do not find in you any superiority over us;
but rather we think you a liar.
28. He said, ‘O my people! tell me, if I am on a clear proof from my Lord, and He has bestowed upon me from
Himself a great mercy, then you remained blind from it. Shall we stick it to your neck while you are averse to
it.’
29. ‘And O people! I ask no wealth on it from you. My reward is only with Allah and I am not to drive away
Muslims. No doubt, they are to meet their Lord, but I find you wholly ignorant people.
30. ‘And O people! Who will save me from Allah, if I will drive away them. Do you then not take heed?
31. ‘And I say not to you, ‘I have treasures of Allah with me, and nor I get the unseen known myself and nor I say
this, ‘I am an angel, and nor I say those whom your eyes despise, ‘Allah will never bestow any good to them.’
Allah knows well what ever is in their hearts. If I do so, then surely I am of the unjust.
32. They said, ‘O Nuh, you have disputed with us, and disputed much, then bring that which for you promise us, if
you are truthful.
33. He said, ‘Allah will bring it to you, if He pleases, and you cannot get Him tired.
34. And my admonition will not profit you, if I desire good to you, whilst Allah desires you to go astray. He is your
Lord and to Him you shall return.
35. Do they say, ‘He has fabricated it?’ Say you, ‘If I have fabricated it, then upon me is my sin and I am quit of
your sins.’
36. And it was revealed to Nuh, ‘none of your people will become Muslim but those who have already believed,
 
 
grieve not then at what they do.
37. And built the ark before Us and with Our command, and address Me not concerning the unjust, they shall
necessarily be drowned.
38. And Nuh builds the ark, and whenever the chief of his people passed by him, they laughed at him. He said. ‘if
you laugh at us, then we shall laugh at you at one time as you laugh.
39. Now then you shall know to whom comes the torment that may disgrace him’ and comes down the torment
that may be lasting.
40. Until, when Our Command came, and the Oven boiled, We said, ’embark in the ark a pair male and female of
every kind and the members of your family except those against whom the word has already gone forth, and
the rest of the Muslims.’ And Muslims were not with him but a few.
41. And he said, ’embark therein; in the name of Allah is its moving and its berthing. No doubt, my Lord is
assuredly Forgiving, Merciful.
42. And it is sailing with them amidst such waves as mountain. And Nuh called his son, embark with us and be not
with the infidels.
43. He said, ‘Now I take refuge of any mountain, it will save me from the water. Said he ‘Today there is no
protector from the torment of Allah but for him on whom He has mercy and the wave came in between the
two, so he was among the drowned.
44. And it was commanded. ‘O earth Swallow your water. And O heaven; withhold And water was dried and the
affair was accomplished, and the ark settled on mountain Judi’ and it was said, away be the people unjust.’
45. And Nuh called upon his Lord, said he, ‘O my Lord my son too is of my family, and no doubt, Your promise is
true, and You are the Greatest of rulers.
46. He said, ‘O Nuh; he is not of your family, No doubt, his work is not righteous, ask not of Me that of which you
have no knowledge. I admonish you not to become ignorant.
47. Submitted he ‘O my Lord I beg Your refuge from asking You that of which I have no knowledge. And if you
forgive me not and have not mercy on me, then I shall be loser.
48. It was said. ‘O Nuh; get down from the ark with peace from Us and with blessings on you and on some parties
with you. And there are some parties whom We shall allow to enjoy in the world, then a painful torment will
reach them.
49. These tidings of unseen, We reveal to you. Neither you did know nor your people be fore this. Then be patient.
No, doubt there is good end for the duty-bound.
50. And towards Aad (sent) Hud a compatriot of their own. He said, ‘O my people, worship Allah. You have no
deity beside Him. You are but fabricators.
51. ‘O my people, I ask not any wage for this, My wage is only on Him Who created me.’ Have you then no
wisdom?
52. And O my people! Beg forgiveness of your Lord, then turn to Him, He will send over you heavy rain and will
add strength to your strength, and turn not away your faces committing crimes.
53. They said, ‘O Hud you have not come to us having any proof, and we are not to leave our gods merely because
of your saying, nor are we going to believe your words.
54. We say only that one of our gods has smitten you with evil. He said. ‘I call Allah to witness and you all hear
witness that I am quit of all those whom you associate with Him
55. Besides Allah. Devise against me you all together then respite me not.
56. I relied on Allah. my Lord and your Lord. There is no moving creature whose forelock is not under His control.
No doubt! My Lord meets on straight path.
57. Then if you turn your faces, then I have already conveyed to you that with which I have been sent to you’ and
my Lord will bring others to take your place, and you cannot harm Him at all. No doubt my Lord has watch
over every thing.
58. And when Our Command came, then We saved Hud and the Muslims with him, by showing Our mercy, and
delivered them from severe torment.
59. And these are Aad. The denied the signs of their Lord and disobeyed His Messengers and followed the saying o’
every contumacous haughty enemy.
60. And the curse stuck to them in the world and on the Day of Judgement. Listen. Aad rejected their Lord. Ho:
Away with Aad the people of Hud.
61. And towards Thamud (We sent) Saleh a compatriot of their own. He said, ‘O my people, worship Allah. You
have no deity beside Him. He evolved you from the earth and caused you to live therein, then beg forgiveness
of Him’ then turn to Him. No doubt’ my Lord is near. Responsive.’
62. They said’ ‘O Saleh. You looked promising amongst us before, ‘Do you forbid us to worship what our fathers
worshipped, and verily we are in a big deceitful doubt regarding that to which you call us.
 
 
63. He said, ‘O my people! Tell me if I am on a clear proof from my Lord, and He has bestowed me mercy from
Himself, then who will save me against Him, if I disobey Him; then you will increase me nothing save loss.
64. And O my people! This is she-camel of Allah, a sign for you. Then leave her, that she may eat in Allah’s earth,
and touch her not with evil lest a near torment reach you.
65. Then they hamstrung her then Saleh said, ‘enjoy in your houses three days more. This is a promise that will
not be falsified.
66. Then when Our Command came. We saved. Saleh and the Muslims with him showing Our mercy and from the
humiliation of that day No doubt, your Lord is Mighty, Honorable.
67. And a roaring noise overtook the unjust, then in the morning; they remained lying crouched in their homes.
68. As though they had never dwelt therein. Listen, no doubt, Thamud denied their Lord, Ho; curse be on
Thamud.
69. And no doubt, Our messengers came to Ibrahim with glad tidings. They said, ‘Peace;’ He said, ‘Peace’ then not
being late, brought a calf roasted.
70. Then when he saw that their hands did not reach towards the food, he thought them strangers and began to
fear of them in his heart. They said, ‘fear not, we have been sent towards the people of Lut.
71. And his wife was standing by, she began to laugh, then We gave her the glad tiding of Ishaque and after
Ishaque of Yaqub.
72. She said, ‘Oh; Woe is me. Shall I bear a child’ and I am old, and this is my husband, an old man? No doubt,
this is strange thing.
73. The angels said Do you wonder at Allah’s Command? The mercy of Allah and His blessings be upon you, O
people of the house! No doubt, it is He Who is All Praise-Worthy, Honorable.
74. Then when the fear of Ibrahim disappeared, and he got glad-tidings, he began to dispute with Us about the
people of Lut.
75. No doubt, Ibrahim is clement most tender hearted, penitent.
76. ‘O Ibrahim! Do not plunge in this thought. No doubt, the Command of your Lord has come, and no doubt. The
torment is to approach them that cannot be averted.
77. And when Our angels came to Lut, he was grieved of them and became sad on account of them, and said, ‘this
is a fierce day.’
78. And his people came running to him, and they were in the habit of doing evil deeds from before. He said, ‘O
people, these are daughters of my people, they are purer for you, then fear Allah. and do not disgrace ‘me in
the face of my guests. Is there not among you any man of good characters?
79. They said you know. That we have no right in the daughters of your people. And you surely know what we
desire.
80. He said. “Had I strength against you or might take refuge in a strong pillar.
81. The angels said ‘O Lut! We are messengers of your Lord, they cannot reach you then carry forth your family
within night. And let none of you look back except y our wife. The same is to reach her too, what will reach
them. No doubt, their promise is for the morning. Is the morning not nigh?
82. Then when Our Command came’ We turned that town upside down and We rained upon it stones of baked clay
continuously.
83. Which are with y our Lord marked. And those stones are not away from unjust people.
84. And towards Madian Shoaib a compatriot of their own. He said, ‘O my people. Worship Allah, there is no deity
beside Him. And diminish not the measure and the weight. No doubt, I see you prosperous, and I fear for you
the torment of encircling day
85. And O my people! Fill up measure and weight with justice and do not give the people their things decreasing
and do not roam in the earth spreading mischief.
86. And that which is left from the provision of Allah is better for you, if you believe, and I am not over you a
guardian.
87. They said, ‘O Shoaib, does your prayer bid you that we should abandon the gods of our fathers, or that we
should not do with our riches whatever we will? Yes please, you are the only wise and up right.
88. He said, ‘O my people. Tell me fairly, if I am on a clear proof from my Lord, and He gave me good provision
from Himself. And I do not desire that I myself begin to do against that which I forbid you to do. I only desire
to return as for as I can. And my succor is from Allah only. I relied only upon Him and I turn towards Him only.
89. And O my people! Let not your opposition to me makes you earn that which befell the people of Nuh, or the
people of Hud or the people of Saleh. And the people of Lut are not far away from you.
90. And beg forgiveness of Allah, then turn towards Him. No doubt, my Lord is Merciful, Loving.
91. They said, ‘O Shoaib, we do not understand most of your talks; and no doubt, we see you weak among us. And
if there had been your tribe, we would have stoned you. And there is no respect for you in our eyes.’
 
 
92. He said, ‘O my people! Is the pressure of my tribe over you is more than Allah? And you have cast Him behind
your back. No doubt’ whatever you do, is under the control of my Lord.
93. And O people! Continue your work at your places, I do my work. Soon you are to know on whom comes the
torment that will disgrace him and who is liar. And wait, I also wait with you.
94. And when my Command came, We saved Shoaib and the Muslims with him by showing Our mercy. And the
roaring noise overtook the unjust then they remained lying on their knees in their homes at morning.
95. s they had never dwelt there. Ho; Be away Madian just as Thamud were removed far away.
96. And verily, We sent Musa with Our signs and clear authority.
97. To Firawn and his courtiers’ then they followed the command of Firawn. And the work of Firawn was not rightly
directed.
98. He shall be before his people on the Day of Resurrection, and bring them down in the Hell. And what an evil
place of watering to descent.
99. And the curse followed them in this world and on the Day of Resurrection. What is an evil reward, which they
got.
100. These are the tidings of the towns that We relate to you; some of them are standing and some mown down.
101. And We wronged them not, but they did evil to themselves. Their deities, whom they used to worship beside
Allah, availed them not, when the Command of your Lord came, and they increased them nothing save
destruction.
102. And such is the seizing of your Lord, when He seizes the towns on their injustice. No doubt, His seizing is
painful, severe.
103. No doubt, herein is a sign to him who fears the torment of Hereafter. That is a Day whereon all shall be
gathered together and that is a Day of presence.
104. And We defer it not save for a counted period.
105. When that Day will come, no one will speak save by the leave of God. Then any one of them is unfortunate,
and any one of them is fortunate.
106. Then those who are unfortunate, they are in the Hell, they will bray like ass.
107. They shall abide therein, so long as the heavens and earth abide, save as your Lord will. No doubt, your Lord
accomplishes what He desires.
108. And those who are fortunate, they are in Heaven. They shall abide therein’ so long as the heavens and earth
abide, save, as your Lord will. this is the gift un-ending.
109. Then O listener! Be not in delusion concerning that which these infidels worship. They worship as their fathers
used to worship before. And undoubtedly, We shall repay them their portion in full undiminished.
110. And no doubt, We gave Musa the Book, then they differed therein. And if a word of your Lord had not gone
already before, the matter would have been decided between them. And no doubt, they are in a deceptive
doubt about it.
111. And no doubt, to each of them in all your Lord will repay their works in full. He is aware of their doings.
112. Then remain you firm as you have been commanded and whoever has repented with you; and O people! Do
not be arrogant. No doubt He is seeing your works.
113. And do not lean towards wrong doers, lest the Fire Should touch you, and you have no supporter besides Allah,
then you will not be helped.
114. And establish prayer at the two ends of the day and in parts of the night. No doubt, good deeds obliterate evil
deeds. This is admonition for the persons accepting admonition.
115. And be patient, Allah wastes not the reward of the righteous
116. Then why there were not among generations before you persons possessing some virtue who would have
forbidden mischief in the earth, Yes there were few of them whom We delivered’? And the unjust remained
behind the same luxury that was given to them, and they were sinners
117. And your Lord is not such that He would destroy towns without any reason. While its people be good.
118. And if your Lord had willed He would have made all! Mankind one nation, and they will always remain differing.
119. Save those on whom your Lord has mercy, and for this has He created them. And the word of your Lord has
been fulfilled. No doubt’ I will fill hell with the jinn and mankind together.
120. And all that We relate to you of the tidings of the messengers is for the purpose of strengthening your heart
therewith? And in this Sura the truth has come to you and admonition to the Muslims.
121. And say you to the infidels, ‘continue working on your places’ and we do our work.
122. And wait. Lo! We (too) are waiting.
123. And to Allah belong the unseen of the heavens and the earth and towards Him is the return of the whole
affairs, then worship Him and rely upon Him. And your Lord is not heedless of what you do.

 
 
Surah Number 12: Yûsuf (The Prophet Joseph)

Revealed at: Makkah
Total Verses: 111
ALLAH in the name of The Most Affectionate, the Merciful.
1. Alif-Lam-Ra. These are the verses of a Book luminous.
2. No doubt, We have sent it down as an Arabic Quran so that you may understand.
3. We relate to you the best narration, in that We revealed to you this Quran, though no doubt, you had no
knowledge before.
4. Recall when Yusuf (Joseph) said to his father, ‘O my father, I saw eleven stars and the sun and the moon: I
saw them prostrating for me.
5. He said, O my son! Relate not your dream to your brothers, that they will devise any scheme against you. No
doubt, Satan ( The devil ) is the clear enemy of man.
6. And thus your lord Will select you. and teach you to draw conclusion of the discourses. and perfect His
blessings upon you and upon the house of Yaqoob (Jacob) as He perfected it formerly on Ishaque (Isaac). No
doubt your Lord is knowing Wise
7. No doubt. In Yusuf and his brethren there are signs for the inquirers.
8. When they said surely Yusuf and his brother are dearer to our father than we and we are a party. No doubt.
Our father is clearly absorbed in their love.
9. Kill Yusuf or cast him forth into some land so that your father’s face may only remain towards you. And
thereafter be righteous.
10. One of them said. ‘Kill not Yusuf, and cast him into a dark well that any traveler may take him away if you are
to do.’
11. They said, ‘O Our father! What happened to you that you are not trusting us regarding Yusuf, and we are his
well wishers.
12. Send him forth with us tomorrow that he may eat fruits and play, and no doubt, we are his watchmen.
13. He said, ‘It will grieve me that you should take him away, and I fear that wolf may eat him while you remain
unaware of him.’
14. They said, if the wolf eats him, and we are a party then we are of no use.’
15. Then when they took him away, and all agreed that he should be put in a dark well, and We revealed to him
that necessarily you shall inform them of this doing while they shall not be knowing.
16. And at night they came to their father weeping.
17. They said, ‘O our father! we went away racing, and left Yusuf near our provisions, then the wolf ate him, and
you would not believe us, though we may be true.
18. And they brought his shirt stained with false blood. He said, ‘Your hearts have made a thing for you, then
patience is good; and I seek help only from Allah against what you describe.
19. And there came a Caravan, they sent their water carrier he then let down his bucket. He Said, ‘Hurrah’; what a
good news, this is a boy,’ and concealed him as a treasure And Allah knows what they do.
20. And the brothers sold him for a mean price on a counted Durham, and they had no inclination in him.
21. And the man of Egypt who bought him said to his wife, ‘keep him honorably, perchance he may profit us, or
we may take him as son. And thus We established Yusuf in the land and in order that We may teach him to
draw conclusions of the discourses. And Allah is Dominant over His affairs, but most men know not.
22. And when he reached to his full strength, We bestowed him wisdom and knowledge. And thus We recompense
the righteous.
23. And she, in whose house he was, allured him lest he may control his self. And bolted all the doors, and she
said, ‘Comes I say to you.’ He said, ‘Allah be my refuge that Aziz is my lord that is to say nourisher. He has
kept me very well. No doubt, the unjust never prosper.
24. And no doubt, the woman desired him, and he would also have desired her, if he had seen the proof of his
Lord. Thus We did, in order that We might avert from him evil and indecency. No doubt, he is of my selected
bondmen.
 
 
25. And both ran towards the door, and the woman tore his shirt from behind, and both met the husband of the
woman near the door. She said ‘what is the punishment of him who desired evil with your wife, but that he
should be imprisoned or a painful chastisement?’
26. He said, ‘she allured me lest I may protect myself and a witness of the household of the woman bore witness,
if his shirt is torn from before, then the woman is true and he is a liar.
27. And if his shirt is torn from behind, then the woman is a liar and he is truthful.
28. Then when Aziz saw his shirt torn from behind, he said ‘no doubt, this is the device of you women.’ No doubt’
your device is great.
29. ‘O Yusuf, do not think of it. And O woman! Ask forgiveness of your sin. No doubt. You are one of the sinners.
30. And certain women in the city said, ‘The wife of Aziz allures the hearts of her young boy. No doubt, his love has
deepened in her heart. We find her infatuated with love openly.
31. Then when Zalikha heard their whispering then she sent for them and prepared for them cushioned couches,
and gave to each of them a knife, and said to Yusuf, ‘Come forth to them.’ And when the women saw Yusuf,
they began to speak of his greatness, and cut their, hands and said ‘Holy is Allah,’ he is not a mankind, he is
not but a noble angel.
32. Zalikha said, ‘then this is he about whom you used to reproach me, and no doubt, I desired to allure his heart’
then he preserved himself. And no doubt, if he will not do what I say to him, then necessarily he will be put in
prison and surely he shall bear insult.
33. Yusuf said, ‘O my Lord, prison is dearer to me than the work to which she calls me. And if you shall not turn
their guile from me, then I shall incline towards them and will be ignorant.
34. Then his Lord heard his prayer, and turned the guile of the women from him. No doubt, He Hears, Knows.
35. Then even after seeing all signs, the same previous thought came to their mind that they should put him in
prison for a period.
36. And two young men entered the prison with him. One of them said, ‘I dreamed that I press wine’ and the other
said, ‘I dreamed that there are some breads on my head whereof the birds are eating. Tell us its interpretation.
No doubt, we see you righteous.
37. Yusuf said, ‘the food which you use to get, will not come to you, but I shall tell you the interpretation thereof
before it comes to you, this is of those knowledges which my Lord has taught me. No doubt, I did not concede
to the religion of the people who do not believe in Allah and they are the rejecters of the Hereafter.
38. And I followed the religion of my fathers Ibrahim and Ishaque and Yaqub. It is not for us to associate anything
with Allah. That is a grace of Allah upon mankind and us but most men thank not.
39. ‘O my two fellow prisoners; are separate Lords better or Allah the One Omnipotent?
40. You worship not besides Him but only names which you and your fathers have carved out. Allah has sent down
no authority for them. There is no judgement but of Allah. He commanded not to worship anyone besides Him.
This is the right religion, but most men know not.
41. ‘O my two fellow prisoners! As for one of you he will serve wine for drink to his lord (King), and as for the
other, he will be crucified, and the birds will eat of his head. The matter about which you inquired has been
decreed.
42. And Yusuf said to one whom he considered would be saved of the two, ‘mention me before your lord, then
Satan (The evil) made him forget to mention him to his lord then Yusuf continued in the prison for several
years more.
43. And the King said, ‘I saw in a dream seven fat cows that they are being eaten by seven lean cows, and seven
green ears and seven others dry. O courtiers! Answer to my dream if you know interpretation of the dreams.’
44. They said, ‘these are confused dreams, and we know not the interpretation of dreams.’
45. And the one who was saved of the two said when he remembered after a long time, ‘I will tell you its
interpretation, send me forth.’
46. ‘O Yusuf! O man of truth! Give us interpretation regarding seven fat cows which are being eaten by seven lean
ones and seven green ears and the other seven dry; perchance, I may return to the people, perchance they
learn.
47. He said. ‘You will do cultivation for seven continuous years, then what you reap, leave it in its ear, but a little
which you may eat.
48. Then after it there shall come seven hard years, that shall eat up what you had stored up for them before, but
a little which you may save.
49. Then thereafter there shall come a year wherein people will have rain and in which they will press juice
50. And the king said, ‘bring him to me, then when the messenger came to him, he said, ‘return to your lord, then
ask him, ‘what about the women who had cut their hands? No doubt my Lord knows their guile.
51. The King said ‘O women’ what business you had when you desired to allure the heart of Yusuf. They said. ‘Holy
 
 
is Allah, we did not find any evil in him. The wife of Aziz said, ‘now the reality is discovered, I desired to allure
his heart and no doubt, he is truthful.
52. Yusuf said, ‘I have done this because Aziz should know that I betrayed him not behind his back, and Allah
allows not the guile of betrayers.
53. And I do not hold my soul free from sin’ no doubt the soul is wont to command evil but that on whom my Lord
has mercy. No doubt, my Lord is Forgiving’ Merciful.
54. The King said, bring him to me that I may choose him especially for myself. Then, when he talked to him said
‘certainly today, you are a man dignified, trusted with us.
55. Yusuf said, ‘set me over the treasures of earth. No doubt, I am watchful, knowing.
56. And thus We gave control to Yusuf over this land wherein he might live wherever he wished. We cause Our
mercy to reach whom We please, and We waste not the reward of the righteous.
57. And surely the reward of the Hereafter is better for those who believed and remained duty-bound.
58. And the brethren of Yusuf, came, then appeared before him and Yusuf recognised them but they remained
unaware of him.
59. And when he got ready their baggage, he said, ‘bring your stepbrother to me, do you not see that I give full
measure and I am the best host.
60. But if you bring him not to me, then there is not measure for you with me and approach me not.
61. They said, we shall desire him from his father, and we are certainly to do it.
62. And Yusuf said to his servants ‘put their capital in their saddlebags, haply they may recognize it when they go
back to their home, per-chance they may return.
63. Then when they returned to their father, they said, ‘O our father, the food-grain has been denied to us, so
send with us our brother that we may bring food-grain and we shall surely safeguard him.
64. He said, ‘May I trust you about him likewise I trusted you before about his brother.’ Then Allah is the best
Guard He is the Most Merciful of the merciful.
65. And when they opened their goods, they found their capital returned to them. They said, ‘O Our father, now
what more should we desire? Here is our capital that has been returned to us, and we shall bring food-grain for
our family and we shall guard our brother, and we shall find an extra camel load. This offering is nothing
before a King.
66. He said, ‘I will never send him with you, until you give me this solemn pledge of Allah that you will be surely
bring him back, but that you may be encompassed’ Then when they gave Yaqub solemn pledge, he said, ‘Allah
is responsible over what we say.’
67. And said he, ‘O my sons, enter not by one door, but enter you by separate gates. I cannot save you against
Allah All decisions belong to Allah I relied on Him, and let the relying rely on Him.
68. And when they entered after the manner their father had commanded, it could not save them against Allah,
yes there was a desire in the heart of Yaqub which he fulfilled. And verily, he is the man of knowledge by Our
teaching, but most men know not.
69. And they went to Yusuf. He gave his brother a place near himself, he said’ ‘believe, I am your brother therefore
be not grieved of whatever they do.’
70. Then when he made ready their baggage, he put the drinking cup in the saddlebag of his brother. Thereafter a
Crier cried. ‘O men of Caravan, no doubt. You are thieves.’
71. They said, and turned to them, ‘what it is that you find not.
72. hey said, ‘we do not find the king’ measuring cup. And whosoever will bring it. He shall have a camel’s load and
I am his guarantor.
73. They said. ‘By God, you are well aware that we came not for creating mischief in the land, nor we are thieves.
74. They said. ‘What is the penalty of him, if you be liars?
75. They said, ‘its penalty is, that he in whose baggage it is found, be himself the servant in recompense. Thus is
the punishment of the unjust at our place.
76. Then first he began the search of their bags before the bag of his brother; then he took it out from the bag of
his brother. We taught Yusuf thus to plan. He could not take his brother under the King’s Law but this that
Allah willed. We exalt in degrees whomsoever We please. And above every man of knowledge there is One of
More Knowledge.
77. The brothers said, ‘if he commits theft, then no doubt his brother has already committed theft before, then
Yusuf kept this thing secret in his heart and did not disclose it to them. He said within himself, ‘you are at
worse place, and Allah knows well what you fabricate.
78. They said, ‘O Aziz, he has a father, aged and advanced in years, so take one of us in his place. No doubt we
are seeing your favours.
79. He said, ‘be refuge of Allah that we should take any other but him with whom we found our goods then we
 
 
shall surely be unjust.
80. Then when they were disappointed of him they began conferring going apart. His elder brother said, ‘do you
not remember that your father had taken a solemn pledge of Allah from you, and before this how you
committed mistake regarding Yusuf? Then I shall not move from this place until my father permits or Allah
commands me and His command is best.
81. Return you all to your father, and say, ‘O our father verily your son has committed theft, and we had become
witnesses to this much what we had in our knowledge, and we were not guardians over the unseen.
82. And Enquirer of the town wherein we were and the Caravan in which we came. And no doubt, we are truthful.
83. He said, ‘your souls have made for you some excuse. Then patience is good. It is near that Allah may bring
them all to me. No doubt, it is He the Knowing the Wise.
84. And he turned away his face from him and said, ‘Ah, woe on the separation of Yusuf, and his eyes were
whitened with grief and he suppressed his anger.
85. They said, ‘By-God, you shall ever continue to remember Yusuf until you approach grave or pass away with
your life.
86. He said, ‘I cry out for assistance in my anguish and sorrow unto Allah, and I know those glories of Allah which
you know not.
87. ‘O my sons! Go and search for Yusuf and his brother and despair not of Allah’s mercy. No doubt, none despair
of the mercy of Allah but a people disbelieving.
88. Then when they reached Yusuf, they said, ‘O Aziz, distress has reached us and our family, and we have come
with worthless capital, then you give us full measure and be charitable to us. No doubt, Allah rewards the
charitable.
89. He said, ‘Are you aware what you did with Yusuf and his brother, when you were ignorant.
90. They said, ‘Are you really Yusuf,’ He said, ‘I am Yusuf and this is my brother No doubt, Allah has favoured us.
Verily whosoever refrains and be patient, then Allah wastes not the reward of the righteous.
91. They said, ‘By God, surely Allah has preferred you above us, and no doubt, we had been sinners.
92. He said, ‘there is no reproach today upon you. May Allah forgive you. And He is the Most Merciful of the
merciful.
93. Go with this shirt of mine, put it on my father’s face’ he shall recover his sight. And bring all your family
together.
94. When the Caravan departed from Egypt, their father here said, ‘no doubt, I find the scent of Yusuf, if you say
me not that he is doted.
95. The sons said, ‘By Allah, you are infatuated with the same old love.
96. Then when the bearer of lad-tidings came’ he laid that shirt on the face of Yaqub, forthwith his sight came
back. He said, ‘did I not say to you hat I know those glories of Allah which you know not.
97. They said, ‘O our father, beg forgiveness of our sins, no doubt, we are sinful.
98. He said, ‘soon I shall beg my Lord to forgive you.’ He is the Forgiving, the Merciful.
99. Then when they all reached Yusuf, he offered a place near him to his father and, mother and said. ‘Enter’
Egypt if Allah will with security.
100. And he seated his father and mother on the throne, and all fell down prostrate for him, and Yusuf said, ‘O my
father, this is the interpretation of-my first vision. Verily my Lord has made it true. And no doubt, He favoured
me that He brought forth me from the prison, and brought you all from the village after Satan had created
dissension between my brothers and me. Surely my Lord makes easy any thing He pleases. Verily He is the
knowing, Wise.
101. ‘O my Lord! Verily You have bestowed me a Kingdom and taught me to draw conclusion of some discourses. O
Creater of heavens and earth, You are my Helper in this world and the Hereafter. Make me die as Muslim and
join me with those who are worthy to be very close to You.
102. These are some tidings of Unseen, which We reveal to you. And you were not with them, when they agreed
upon their plan, and they were devising.
103. And most men will not believe; though you eagerly desire it.
104. And you do not ask any wage for it; it is not but admonition to the whole world.
105. And how many a sign there is in the heavens and earth that most men pass by them and are unaware of them.
106. And most of them believe not in Allah but as associators.
107. Have they become fearless from this that they maybe encompassed by the torment of Allah or the sudden
coming of the Hour upon them while they are unaware?
108. Say you, ‘This is my way; I call towards Allah. I and those who follow my footsteps have insight. And Holy is
Allah: and I am not an associators.
109. And all those who were sent as messengers before you were men, whom We revealed, and all were residents
 
 
of the cities. Have they not journeyed in the land, that they may see, what became the end of those before
them? And no doubt, the abode of the Hereafter is better for the duty-bound. Have you not then wisdom?
110. And so much so, when the messengers had no hope of outer causes and the people thought that the
messengers had given them wrong information at that time, Our help came, then whomsoever We willed was
rescued. And Our torments cannot be averted from the sinful people.
111. No doubt, the eyes of the wise men are opened by their tidings. It is not a discourse concocted, but a
confirmation of what went before and a detail explanation of every thing, and guidance and a mercy for the
Muslims.
