1.  *     A.L.M.     A.L.M.     سورة البقرة  بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم  الم     swr+ albqr+  bsm allh alrHmn alrHym  alm
 
2.  *     This is the Book; in it is guidance sure, without doubt, to those who fear Allah.     This scripture is infallible; a beacon for the righteous;     ذلك الكتاب لاريب فيه هدى للمتقين     Xlk alktab laryb fyh hdi llmtqyn
 
3.  *     Who believe in the Unseen, are steadfast in prayer, and spend out of what We have provided for them;     who believe in the unseen, observe the Contact Prayers (Salat), and from our provisions to them, they give to charity.     الذين يؤمنون بالغيب ويقيمون الصلاة ومما رزقناهم ينفقون     alXyn yWmnwn balGyb wyqymwn alSla+ wmma rzqnahm ynfqwn
 
4.  *     And who believe in the Revelation sent to thee, and sent before thy time, and (in their hearts) have the assurance of the Hereafter.     And they believe in what was revealed to you, and in what was revealed before you, and with regard to the Hereafter, they are absolutely certain.     والذين يؤمنون بما انزل اليك وماانزل من قبلك وبالاخرة هم يوقنون     walXyn yWmnwn bma anzl alyk wmaanzl mn qblk wbalaKr+ hm ywqnwn
 
5.  *     They are on (true) guidance, from their Lord, and it is these who will prosper.     These are guided by their Lord; these are the winners.     اولئك على هدى من ربهم واولئك هم المفلحون     awlYk `li hdi mn rbhm wawlYk hm almflHwn
 
6.  *     As to those who reject Faith, it is the same to them whether thou warn them or do not warn them; they will not believe.     As for those who disbelieve, it is the same for them; whether you warn them, or not warn them, they cannot believe.     ان الذين كفروا سواء عليهم ءانذرتهم ام لم تنذرهم لايؤمنون     an alXyn kfrwa swa' `lyhm 'anXrthm am lm tnXrhm layWmnwn
 
7.  *     Allah hath set a seal on their hearts and on their hearing, and on their eyes is a veil; great is the penalty they (incur).     GOD seals their minds and their hearing, and their eyes are veiled. They have incurred severe retribution.     ختم الله على قلوبهم وعلى سمعهم وعلى ابصارهم غشاوة ولهم عذاب عظيم     Ktm allh `li qlwbhm w`li sm`hm w`li abSarhm G$aw+ wlhm `Xab `Zym
 
8.  *     Of the people there are some who say: "We believe in Allah and the Last Day;" but they do not (really) believe.     Then there are those who say, "We believe in GOD and the Last Day," while they are not believers.     ومن الناس من يقول امنا بالله وباليوم الاخر وماهم بمؤمنين     wmn alnas mn yqwl amna ballh wbalywm alaKr wmahm bmWmnyn
 
9.  *     Fain would they deceive Allah and those who believe, but they only deceive themselves, and realise (it) not!     In trying to deceive GOD and those who believe, they only deceive themselves without perceiving.     يخادعون الله والذين امنوا ومايخدعون الاانفسهم ومايشعرون     yKad`wn allh walXyn amnwa wmayKd`wn alaanfshm wmay$`rwn
 
10.  *     In their hearts is a disease; and Allah has increased their disease: And grievous is the penalty they (incur), because they are false (to themselves).     In their minds there is a disease. Consequently, GOD augments their disease. They have incurred a painful retribution for their lying.     في قلوبهم مرض فزادهم الله مرضا ولهم عذاب اليم بما كانوا يكذبون     fy qlwbhm mrD fzadhm allh mrDa wlhm `Xab alym bma kanwa ykXbwn
 
11.  *     When it is said to them: "Make not mischief on the earth," they say: "Why, we only Want to make peace!"     When they are told, "Do not commit evil," they say, "But we are righteous!"     واذا قيل لهم لاتفسدوا في الارض قالوا انما نحن مصلحون     waXa qyl lhm latfsdwa fy alarD qalwa anma nHn mSlHwn
 
12.  *     Of a surety, they are the ones who make mischief, but they realise (it) not.     In fact, they are evildoers, but they do not perceive.     الا انهم هم المفسدون ولكن لايشعرون     ala anhm hm almfsdwn wlkn lay$`rwn
 
13.  *     When it is said to them: "Believe as the others believe:" They say: "Shall we believe as the fools believe?" Nay, of a surety they are the fools, but they do not know.     When they are told, "Believe like the people who believed," they say, "Shall we believe like the fools who believed?" In fact, it is they who are fools, but they do not know.     واذا قيل لهم امنوا كما امن الناس قالوا انؤمن كما امن السفهاء الاانهم هم السفهاء ولكن لايعلمون     waXa qyl lhm amnwa kma amn alnas qalwa anWmn kma amn alsfha' alaanhm hm alsfha' wlkn lay`lmwn
 
14.  *     When they meet those who believe, they say: "We believe;" but when they are alone with their evil ones, they say: "We are really with you: We (were) only jesting."     When they meet the believers, they say, "We believe," but when alone with their devils, they say, "We are with you; we were only mocking."     واذا لقوا الذين امنوا قالوا امنا واذا خلوا الى شياطينهم قالوا انا معكم انما نحن مستهزئون     waXa lqwa alXyn amnwa qalwa amna waXa Klwa ali $yaTynhm qalwa ana m`km anma nHn msthzYwn
 
15.  *     Allah will throw back their mockery on them, and give them rope in their trespasses; so they will wander like blind ones (To and fro).     GOD mocks them, and leads them on in their transgressions, blundering.     الله يستهزئ بهم ويمدهم في طغيانهم يعمهون     allh ysthzY bhm wymdhm fy TGyanhm y`mhwn
 
16.  *     These are they who have bartered Guidance for error: But their traffic is profitless, and they have lost true direction,     It is they who bought the straying, at the expense of guidance. Such trade never prospers, nor do they receive any guidance.     اولئك الذين اشتروا الضلالة بالهدى فما ربحت تجارتهم وماكانوا مهتدين     awlYk alXyn a$trwa alDlal+ balhdi fma rbHt tjarthm wmakanwa mhtdyn
 
17.  *     Their similitude is that of a man who kindled a fire; when it lighted all around him, Allah took away their light and left them in utter darkness. So they could not see.     Their example is like those who start a fire, then, as it begins to shed light around them, GOD takes away their light, leaving them in darkness, unable to see.     مثلهم كمثل الذي استوقد نارا فلما اضاءت ماحوله ذهب الله بنورهم وتركهم في ظلمات لايبصرون     mxlhm kmxl alXy astwqd nara flma aDa't maHwlh Xhb allh bnwrhm wtrkhm fy Zlmat laybSrwn
 
18.  *     Deaf, dumb, and blind, they will not return (to the path).     Deaf, dumb, and blind; they fail to return.     صم بكم عمي فهم لايرجعون     Sm bkm `my fhm layrj`wn
 
19.  *     Or (another similitude) is that of a rain-laden cloud from the sky: In it are zones of darkness, and thunder and lightning: They press their fingers in their ears to keep out the stunning thunder-clap, the while they are in terror of death. But Allah is ever round the rejecters of Faith!     Another example: a rainstorm from the sky in which there is darkness, thunder, and lightning. They put their fingers in their ears, to evade death. GOD is fully aware of the disbelievers.     او كصيب من السماء فيه ظلمات ورعد وبرق يجعلون اصابعهم في اذانهم من الصواعق حذر الموت والله محيط بالكافرين     aw kSyb mn alsma' fyh Zlmat wr`d wbrq yj`lwn aSab`hm fy aXanhm mn alSwa`q HXr almwt wallh mHyT balkafryn
 
20.  *     The lightning all but snatches away their sight; every time the light (Helps) them, they walk therein, and when the darkness grows on them, they stand still. And if Allah willed, He could take away their faculty of hearing and seeing; for Allah hath power over all things.     The lightning almost snatches away their eyesight. When it lights for them, they move forward, and when it turns dark, they stand still. If GOD wills, He can take away their hearing and their eyesight. GOD is Omnipotent.     يكاد البرق يخطف ابصارهم كلما اضاء لهم مشوا فيه واذا اظلم عليهم قاموا ولو شاء الله لذهب بسمعهم وابصارهم ان الله على كل شئ قدير     ykad albrq yKTf abSarhm klma aDa' lhm m$wa fyh waXa aZlm `lyhm qamwa wlw $a' allh lXhb bsm`hm wabSarhm an allh `li kl $Y qdyr
 
21.  *     O ye people! Adore your Guardian-Lord, who created you and those who came before you, that ye may have the chance to learn righteousness;     O people, worship only your Lord - the One who created you and those before you - that you may be saved.     ياايها الناس اعبدوا ربكم الذي خلقكم والذين من قبلكم لعلكم تتقون     yaayha alnas a`bdwa rbkm alXy Klqkm walXyn mn qblkm l`lkm ttqwn
 
22.  *     Who has made the earth your couch, and the heavens your canopy; and sent down rain from the heavens; and brought forth therewith Fruits for your sustenance; then set not up rivals unto Allah when ye know (the truth).     The One who made the earth habitable for you, and the sky a structure. He sends down from the sky water, to produce all kinds of fruits for your sustenance. You shall not set up idols to rival GOD, now that you know.     الذي جعل لكم الارض فراشا والسماء بناء وانزل من السماء ماء فاخرج به من الثمرات رزقا لكم فلا تجعلوا لله اندادا وانتم تعلمون     alXy j`l lkm alarD fra$a walsma' bna' wanzl mn alsma' ma' faKrj bh mn alxmrat rzqa lkm fla tj`lwa llh andada wantm t`lmwn
 
23.  *     And if ye are in doubt as to what We have revealed from time to time to Our servant, then produce a Sura like thereunto; and call your witnesses or helpers (If there are any) besides Allah, if your (doubts) are true.     If you have any doubt regarding what we revealed to our servant, then produce one sura like these, and call upon your own witnesses against GOD, if you are truthful.     وان كنتم في ريب مما نزلنا على عبدنا فاْتوا بسورة من مثله وادعوا شهداءكم من دون الله ان كنتم صادقين     wan kntm fy ryb mma nzlna `li `bdna fa.twa bswr+ mn mxlh wad`wa $hda'km mn dwn allh an kntm Sadqyn
 
24.  *     But if ye cannot--and of a surety ye cannot--then fear the Fire whose fuel is men and stones,--which is prepared for those who reject Faith.     If you cannot do this - and you can never do this - then beware of the Hellfire, whose fuel is people and rocks; it awaits the disbelievers.     فان لم تفعلوا ولن تفعلوا فاتقوا النار التي وقودها الناس والحجارة اعدت للكافرين     fan lm tf`lwa wln tf`lwa fatqwa alnar alty wqwdha alnas walHjar+ a`dt llkafryn
 
25.  *     But give glad tidings to those who believe and work righteousness, that their portion is Gardens, beneath which rivers flow. Every time they are fed with fruits therefrom, they say: "Why, this is what we were fed with before," for they are given things in similitude; and they have therein companions pure (and holy); and they abide therein (for ever).     Give good news to those who believe and lead a righteous life that they will have gardens with flowing streams. When provided with a provision of fruits therein, they will say, "This is what was provided for us previously." Thus, they are given allegorical descriptions. They will have pure spouses therein, and they abide therein forever.     وبشر الذين امنوا وعملوا الصالحات ان لهم جنات تجري من تحتها الانهار كلما رزقوا منها من ثمرة رزقا قالوا هذا الذي رزقنا من قبل واتوا به متشابها ولهم فيها ازواج مطهرة وهم فيها خالدون     wb$r alXyn amnwa w`mlwa alSalHat an lhm jnat tjry mn tHtha alanhar klma rzqwa mnha mn xmr+ rzqa qalwa hXa alXy rzqna mn qbl watwa bh mt$abha wlhm fyha azwaj mThr+ whm fyha Kaldwn
 
26.  *     Allah disdains not to use the similitude of things, lowest as well as highest. Those who believe know that it is truth from their Lord; but those who reject Faith say: "What means Allah by this similitude?" By it He causes many to stray, and many He leads into the right path; but He causes not to stray, except those who forsake (the path),--     GOD does not shy away from citing any kind of allegory, from the tiny mosquito and greater. As for those who believe, they know that it is the truth from their Lord. As for those who disbelieve, they say, "What did GOD mean by such an allegory?" He misleads many thereby, and guides many thereby. But He never misleads thereby except the wicked,     ان الله لايستحيي ان يضرب مثلا ما بعوضة فما فوقها فاما الذين امنوا فيعلمون انه الحق من ربهم واما الذين كفروا فيقولون ماذا اراد الله بهذا مثلا يضل به كثيرا ويهدي به كثيرا ومايضل به الا الفاسقين     an allh laystHyy an yDrb mxla ma b`wD+ fma fwqha fama alXyn amnwa fy`lmwn anh alHq mn rbhm wama alXyn kfrwa fyqwlwn maXa arad allh bhXa mxla yDl bh kxyra wyhdy bh kxyra wmayDl bh ala alfasqyn
 
27.  *     Those who break Allah's Covenant after it is ratified, and who sunder what Allah Has ordered to be joined, and do mischief on earth: These cause loss (only) to themselves.     who violate GOD's covenant after pledging to uphold it, sever what GOD has commanded to be joined, and commit evil. These are the losers.     الذين ينقضون عهد الله من بعد ميثاقه ويقطعون ماامر الله به ان يوصل ويفسدون في الارض اولئك هم الخاسرون     alXyn ynqDwn `hd allh mn b`d myxaqh wyqT`wn maamr allh bh an ywSl wyfsdwn fy alarD awlYk hm alKasrwn
 
28.  *     How can ye reject the faith in Allah.--seeing that ye were without life, and He gave you life; then will He cause you to die, and will again bring you to life; and again to Him will ye return.     How can you disbelieve in GOD when you were dead and He gave you life, then He puts you to death, then He brings you back to life, then to Him you ultimately return?     كيف تكفرون بالله وكنتم امواتا فاحياكم ثم يميتكم ثم يحييكم ثم اليه ترجعون     kyf tkfrwn ballh wkntm amwata faHyakm xm ymytkm xm yHyykm xm alyh trj`wn
 
29.  *     It is He Who hath created for you all things that are on earth; Moreover His design comprehended the heavens, for He gave order and perfection to the seven firmaments; and of all things He hath perfect knowledge.     He is the One who created for you everything on earth, then turned to the sky and perfected seven universes therein, and He is fully aware of all things.     هو الذي خلق لكم مافي الارض جميعا ثم استوى الى السماء فسواهن سبع سماوات وهو بكل شئ عليم     hw alXy Klq lkm mafy alarD jmy`a xm astwi ali alsma' fswahn sb` smawat whw bkl $Y `lym
 
30.  *     Behold, thy Lord said to the angels: "I will create a vicegerent on earth." They said: "Wilt Thou place therein one who will make mischief therein and shed blood?--whilst we do celebrate Thy praises and glorify Thy holy (name)?" He said: "I know what ye know not."     Recall that your Lord said to the angels, "I am placing a representative (a temporary god) on Earth." They said, "Will You place therein one who will spread evil therein and shed blood, while we sing Your praises, glorify You, and uphold Your absolute authority?" He said, "I know what you do not know."     واذ قال ربك للملائكة اني جاعل في الارض خليفة قالوا اتجعل فيها من يفسد فيها ويسفك الدماء ونحن نسبح بحمدك ونقدس لك قال اني اعلم مالاتعلمون     waX qal rbk llmlaYk+ any ja`l fy alarD Klyf+ qalwa atj`l fyha mn yfsd fyha wysfk aldma' wnHn nsbH bHmdk wnqds lk qal any a`lm malat`lmwn
 
31.  *     And He taught Adam the nature of all things; then He placed them before the angels, and said: "Tell me the nature of these if ye are right."     He taught Adam all the names then presented them to the angels, saying, "Give me the names of these, if you are right."     وعلم ادم الاسماء كلها ثم عرضهم على الملائكة فقال انبئوني باسماء هؤلاء ان كنتم صادقين     w`lm adm alasma' klha xm `rDhm `li almlaYk+ fqal anbYwny basma' hWla' an kntm Sadqyn
 
32.  *     They said: "Glory to Thee, of knowledge We have none, save what Thou Hast taught us: In truth it is Thou Who art perfect in knowledge and wisdom."     They said, "Be You glorified, we have no knowledge, except that which You have taught us. You are the Omniscient, Most Wise."     قالوا سبحانك لاعلم لنا الا ماعلمتنا انك انت العليم الحكيم     qalwa sbHank la`lm lna ala ma`lmtna ank ant al`lym alHkym
 
33.  *     He said: "O Adam! Tell them their natures." When he had told them, Allah said: "Did I not tell you that I know the secrets of heaven and earth, and I know what ye reveal and what ye conceal?"     He said, "O Adam, tell them their names." When he told them their names, He said, "Did I not tell you that I know the secrets of the heavens and the earth? I know what you declare, and what you conceal."     قال ياادم انبئهم باسمائهم فلما انباهم باسمائهم قال الم اقل لكم اني اعلم غيب السماوات والارض واعلم ماتبدون وماكنتم تكتمون     qal yaadm anbYhm basmaYhm flma anbahm basmaYhm qal alm aql lkm any a`lm Gyb alsmawat walarD wa`lm matbdwn wmakntm tktmwn
 
34.  *     And behold, We said to the angels: "Bow down to Adam" and they bowed down. Not so Iblis: he refused and was haughty: He was of those who reject Faith.     When we said to the angels, "Fall prostrate before Adam," they fell prostrate, except Satan; he refused, was too arrogant, and a disbeliever.     واذ قلنا للملائكة اسجدوا لادم فسجدوا الا ابليس ابى واستكبر وكان من الكافرين     waX qlna llmlaYk+ asjdwa ladm fsjdwa ala ablys abi wastkbr wkan mn alkafryn
 
35.  *     We said: "O Adam! dwell thou and thy wife in the Garden; and eat of the bountiful things therein as (where and when) ye will; but approach not this tree, or ye run into harm and transgression."     We said, "O Adam, live with your wife in Paradise, and eat therefrom generously, as you please, but do not approach this tree, lest you sin."     وقلنا ياادم اسكن انت وزوجك الجنة وكلا منها رغدا حيث شئتما ولاتقربا هذه الشجرة فتكونا من الظالمين     wqlna yaadm askn ant wzwjk aljn+ wkla mnha rGda Hyx $Ytma wlatqrba hXh al$jr+ ftkwna mn alZalmyn
 
36.  *     Then did Satan make them slip from the (garden), and get them out of the state (of felicity) in which they had been. We said: "Get ye down, all (ye people), with enmity between yourselves. On earth will be your dwelling-place and your means of livelihood--for a time."     But the devil duped them, and caused their eviction therefrom. We said, "Go down as enemies of one another. On Earth shall be your habitation and provision for awhile."     فازلهما الشيطان عنها فاخرجهما مما كانا فيه وقلنا اهبطوا بعضكم لبعض عدو ولكم في الارض مستقر ومتاع الى حين     fazlhma al$yTan `nha faKrjhma mma kana fyh wqlna ahbTwa b`Dkm lb`D `dw wlkm fy alarD mstqr wmta` ali Hyn
 
37.  *     Then learnt Adam from his Lord words of inspiration, and his Lord Turned towards him; for He is Oft-Returning, Most Merciful.     Then, Adam received from his Lord words, whereby He redeemed him. He is the Redeemer, Most Merciful.     فتلقى ادم من ربه كلمات فتاب عليه انه هو التواب الرحيم     ftlqi adm mn rbh klmat ftab `lyh anh hw altwab alrHym
 
38.  *     We said: "Get ye down all from here; and if, as is sure, there comes to you Guidance from me, whosoever follows My guidance, on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.     We said, "Go down therefrom, all of you. When guidance comes to you from Me, those who follow My guidance will have no fear, nor will they grieve.     قلنا اهبطوا منها جميعا فاما ياتينكم مني هدى فمن تبع هداي فلاخوف عليهم ولاهم يحزنون     qlna ahbTwa mnha jmy`a fama yatynkm mny hdi fmn tb` hday flaKwf `lyhm wlahm yHznwn
 
39.  *     "But those who reject Faith and belie Our Signs, they shall be companions of the Fire; they shall abide therein."     "As for those who disbelieve and reject our revelations, they will be dwellers of Hell, wherein they abide forever."     والذين كفروا وكذبوا باياتنا اولئك اصحاب النار هم فيها خالدون     walXyn kfrwa wkXbwa bayatna awlYk aSHab alnar hm fyha Kaldwn
 
40.  *     O Children of Israel! call to mind the (special) favour which I bestowed upon you, and fulfil your covenant with Me as I fulfil My Covenant with you, and fear none but Me.     O Children of Israel, remember My favor, which I bestowed upon you, and fulfill your part of the covenant, that I fulfill My part of the covenant, and reverence Me.     يابني اسرائيل اذكروا نعمتي التي انعمت عليكم واوفوا بعهدي اوف بعهدكم واياي فارهبون     yabny asraYyl aXkrwa n`mty alty an`mt `lykm wawfwa b`hdy awf b`hdkm wayay farhbwn
 
41.  *     And believe in what I reveal, confirming the revelation which is with you, and be not the first to reject Faith therein, nor sell My Signs for a small price; and fear Me, and Me alone.     You shall believe in what I have revealed herein, confirming what you have; do not be the first to reject it. Do not trade away My revelations for a cheap price, and observe Me.     وامنوا بما انزلت مصدقا لما معكم ولاتكونوا اول كافر به ولاتشتروا باياتي ثمنا قليلا واياي فاتقون     wamnwa bma anzlt mSdqa lma m`km wlatkwnwa awl kafr bh wlat$trwa bayaty xmna qlyla wayay fatqwn
 
42.  *     And cover not Truth with falsehood, nor conceal the Truth when ye know (what it is).     Do not confound the truth with falsehood, nor shall you conceal the truth, knowingly.     ولاتلبسوا الحق بالباطل وتكتموا الحق وانتم تعلمون     wlatlbswa alHq balbaTl wtktmwa alHq wantm t`lmwn
 
43.  *     And be steadfast in prayer; practise regular charity; and bow down your heads with those who bow down (in worship).     You shall observe the Contact Prayers (Salat) and give the obligatory charity (Zakat), and bow down with those who bow down.     واقيموا الصلاة واتوا الزكاة واركعوا مع الراكعين     waqymwa alSla+ watwa alzka+ wark`wa m` alrak`yn
 
44.  *     Do ye enjoin right conduct on the people, and forget (To practise it) yourselves, and yet ye study the Scripture? Will ye not understand?     Do you exhort the people to be righteous, while forgetting yourselves, though you read the scripture? Do you not understand?     اتامرون الناس بالبر وتنسون انفسكم وانتم تتلون الكتاب افلا تعقلون     atamrwn alnas balbr wtnswn anfskm wantm ttlwn alktab afla t`qlwn
 
45.  *     Nay, seek ((Allah)'s) help with patient perseverance and prayer: It is indeed hard, except to those who bring a lowly spirit,--     You shall seek help through steadfastness and the Contact Prayers (Salat). This is difficult indeed, but not so for the reverent,     واستعينوا بالصبر والصلاة وانها لكبيرة الا على الخاشعين     wast`ynwa balSbr walSla+ wanha lkbyr+ ala `li alKa$`yn
 
46.  *     Who bear in mind the certainty that they are to meet their Lord, and that they are to return to Him.     who believe that they will meet their Lord; that to Him they ultimately return.     الذين يظنون انهم ملاقوا ربهم وانهم اليه راجعون     alXyn yZnwn anhm mlaqwa rbhm wanhm alyh raj`wn
 
47.  *     Children of Israel! call to mind the (special) favour which I bestowed upon you, and that I preferred you to all other (for My Message).     O Children of Israel, remember My favor which I bestowed upon you, and that I blessed you more than any other people.     يابني اسرائيل اذكروا نعمتي التي انعمت عليكم واني فضلتكم على العالمين     yabny asraYyl aXkrwa n`mty alty an`mt `lykm wany fDltkm `li al`almyn
 
48.  *     Then guard yourselves against a day when one soul shall not avail another nor shall intercession be accepted for her, nor shall compensation be taken from her, nor shall anyone be helped (from outside).     Beware of the day when no soul can avail another soul, no intercession will be accepted, no ransom can be paid, nor can anyone be helped.     واتقوا يوما لاتجزي نفس عن نفس شيئا ولايقبل منها شفاعة ولايؤخذ منها عدل ولاهم ينصرون     watqwa ywma latjzy nfs `n nfs $yYa wlayqbl mnha $fa`+ wlayWKX mnha `dl wlahm ynSrwn
 
49.  *     And remember, We delivered you from the people of Pharaoh: They set you hard tasks and punishments, slaughtered your sons and let your women-folk live; therein was a tremendous trial from your Lord.     Recall that we saved you from Pharaoh's people who inflicted upon you the worst persecution, slaying your sons and sparing your daughters. That was an exacting test from your Lord.     واذ نجيناكم من ال فرعون يسومونكم سوء العذاب يذبحون ابناءكم ويستحيون نساءكم وفي ذلكم بلاء من ربكم عظيم     waX njynakm mn al fr`wn yswmwnkm sw' al`Xab yXbHwn abna'km wystHywn nsa'km wfy Xlkm bla' mn rbkm `Zym
 
50.  *     And remember We divided the sea for you and saved you and drowned Pharaoh's people within your very sight.     Recall that we parted the sea for you; we saved you and drowned Pharaoh's people before your eyes.     واذ فرقنا بكم البحر فانجيناكم واغرقنا ال فرعون وانتم تنظرون     waX frqna bkm albHr fanjynakm waGrqna al fr`wn wantm tnZrwn
 
51.  *     And remember We appointed forty nights for Moses, and in his absence ye took the calf (for worship), and ye did grievous wrong.     Yet, when we summoned Moses for forty nights, you worshiped the calf in his absence, and turned wicked.     واذ واعدنا موسى اربعين ليلة ثم اتخذتم العجل من بعده وانتم ظالمون     waX wa`dna mwsi arb`yn lyl+ xm atKXtm al`jl mn b`dh wantm Zalmwn
 
52.  *     Even then We did forgive you; there was a chance for you to be grateful.     Still, we pardoned you thereafter that you may be appreciative.     ثم عفونا عنكم من بعد ذلك لعلكم تشكرون     xm `fwna `nkm mn b`d Xlk l`lkm t$krwn
 
53.  *     And remember We gave Moses the Scripture and the Criterion (Between right and wrong): There was a chance for you to be guided aright.     Recall that we gave Moses scripture and the statute book, that you may be guided.     واذ اتينا موسى الكتاب والفرقان لعلكم تهتدون     waX atyna mwsi alktab walfrqan l`lkm thtdwn
 
54.  *     And remember Moses said to his people: "O my people! Ye have indeed wronged yourselves by your worship of the calf: So turn (in repentance) to your Maker, and slay yourselves (the wrong-doers); that will be better for you in the sight of your Maker." Then He turned towards you (in forgiveness): For He is Oft-Returning, Most Merciful.     Recall that Moses said to his people, "O my people, you have wronged your souls by worshiping the calf. You must repent to your Creator. You shall kill your egos. This is better for you in the sight of your Creator." He did redeem you. He is the Redeemer, Most Merciful.     واذ قال موسى لقومه ياقوم انكم ظلمتم انفسكم باتخاذكم العجل فتوبوا الى بارئكم فاقتلوا انفسكم ذلكم خير لكم عند بارئكم فتاب عليكم انه هو التواب الرحيم     waX qal mwsi lqwmh yaqwm ankm Zlmtm anfskm batKaXkm al`jl ftwbwa ali barYkm faqtlwa anfskm Xlkm Kyr lkm `nd barYkm ftab `lykm anh hw altwab alrHym
 
55.  *     And remember ye said: "O Moses! We shall never believe in thee until we see Allah manifestly," but ye were dazed with thunder and lighting even as ye looked on.     Recall that you said, "O Moses, we will not believe unless we see GOD, physically." Consequently, the lightning struck you, as you looked.     واذ قلتم ياموسى لن نؤمن لك حتى نرى الله جهرة فاخذتكم الصاعقة وانتم تنظرون     waX qltm yamwsi ln nWmn lk Hti nri allh jhr+ faKXtkm alSa`q+ wantm tnZrwn
 
56.  *     Then We raised you up after your death: Ye had the chance to be grateful.     We then revived you, after you had died, that you may be appreciative.     ثم بعثناكم من بعد موتكم لعلكم تشكرون     xm b`xnakm mn b`d mwtkm l`lkm t$krwn
 
57.  *     And We gave you the shade of clouds and sent down to you Manna and quails, saying: "Eat of the good things We have provided for you:" (But they rebelled); to us they did no harm, but they harmed their own souls.     We shaded you with clouds (in Sinai), and sent down to you manna and quails: "Eat from the good things we provided for you." They did not hurt us (by rebelling); they only hurt their own souls.     وظللنا عليكم الغمام وانزلنا عليكم المن والسلوى كلوا من طيبات ما رزقناكم وما ظلمونا ولكن كانوا انفسهم يظلمون     wZllna `lykm alGmam wanzlna `lykm almn walslwi klwa mn Tybat ma rzqnakm wma Zlmwna wlkn kanwa anfshm yZlmwn
 
58.  *     And remember We said: "Enter this town, and eat of the plenty therein as ye wish; but enter the gate with humility, in posture and in words, and We shall forgive you your faults and increase (the portion of) those who do good."     Recall that we said, "Enter this town, where you will find as many provisions as you like. Just enter the gate humbly, and treat the people nicely. We will then forgive your sins, and increase the reward for the pious."     واذ قلنا ادخلوا هذه القرية فكلوا منها حيث شئتم رغدا وادخلوا الباب سجدا وقولوا حطة نغفر لكم خطاياكم وسنزيدالمحسنين     waX qlna adKlwa hXh alqry+ fklwa mnha Hyx $Ytm rGda wadKlwa albab sjda wqwlwa HT+ nGfr lkm KTayakm wsnzydalmHsnyn
 
59.  *     But the transgressors changed the word from that which had been given them; so We sent on the transgressors a plague from heaven, for that they infringed (Our command) repeatedly.     But the wicked among them carried out commands other than the commands given to them. Consequently, we sent down upon the transgressors condemnation from the sky, due to their wickedness.     فبدل الذين ظلموا قولا غير الذي قيل لهم فانزلنا على الذين ظلموا رجزا من السماء بما كانوا يفسقون     fbdl alXyn Zlmwa qwla Gyr alXy qyl lhm fanzlna `li alXyn Zlmwa rjza mn alsma' bma kanwa yfsqwn
 
60.  *     And remember Moses prayed for water for his people; We said: "Strike the rock with thy staff." Then gushed forth therefrom twelve springs. Each group knew its own place for water. So eat and drink of the sustenance provided by Allah, and do no evil nor mischief on the (face of the) earth.     Recall that Moses sought water for his people. We said, "Strike the rock with your staff." Whereupon, twelve springs gushed out therefrom. The members of each tribe knew their own water. Eat and drink from GOD's provisions, and do not roam the earth corruptingly.     واذا استسقى موسى لقومه فقلنا اضرب بعصاك الحجر فانفجرت منه اثنتا عشرة عينا قد علم كل اناس مشربهم كلوا واشربوا من رزق الله ولاتعثوا في الارض مفسدين     waXa astsqi mwsi lqwmh fqlna aDrb b`Sak alHjr fanfjrt mnh axnta `$r+ `yna qd `lm kl anas m$rbhm klwa wa$rbwa mn rzq allh wlat`xwa fy alarD mfsdyn
 
61.  *     And remember ye said: "O Moses! we cannot endure one kind of food (always); so beseech thy Lord for us to produce for us of what the earth groweth,--its pot-herbs, and cucumbers, Its garlic, lentils, and onions." He said: "Will ye exchange the better for the worse? Go ye down to any town, and ye shall find what ye want!" They were covered with humiliation and misery; they drew on themselves the wrath of Allah. This because they went on rejecting the Signs of Allah and slaying His Messengers without just cause. This because they rebelled and went on transgressing.     Recall that you said, "O Moses, we can no longer tolerate one kind of food. Call upon your Lord to produce for us such earthly crops as beans, cucumbers, garlic, lentils, and onions." He said, "Do you wish to substitute that which is inferior for that which is good? Go down to Egypt, where you can find what you asked for." They have incurred condemnation, humiliation, and disgrace, and brought upon themselves wrath from GOD. This is because they rejected GOD's revelations, and killed the prophets unjustly. This is because they disobeyed and     واذ قلتم ياموسى لن نصبر على طعام واحد فادع لنا ربك يخرج لنا مما تنبت الارض من بقلها وقثائها وفومها وعدسها وبصلها قال اتستبدلون الذي هو ادنى بالذي هو خير اهبطوا مصرا فان لكم ماسالتم وضربت عليهم الذلة والمسكنة وباؤوا بغضب من الله ذلك بانهم كانوا يكفرون  بايات الله ويقتلون النبيين بغير الحق ذلك بما عصوا وكانوا يعتدون     waX qltm yamwsi ln nSbr `li T`am waHd fad` lna rbk yKrj lna mma tnbt alarD mn bqlha wqxaYha wfwmha w`dsha wbSlha qal atstbdlwn alXy hw adni balXy hw Kyr ahbTwa mSra fan lkm masaltm wDrbt `lyhm alXl+ walmskn+ wbaWwa bGDb mn allh Xlk banhm kanwa ykfrwn  bayat allh wyqtlwn alnbyyn bGyr alHq Xlk bma `Swa wkanwa y`tdwn
 
62.  *     Those who believe (in the Qur'an), and those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Christians and the Sabians,--any who believe in Allah and the Last Day, and work righteousness, shall have their reward with their Lord; on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.     Surely, those who believe, those who are Jewish, the Christians, and the converts; anyone who (1) believes in GOD, and (2) believes in the Last Day, and (3) leads a righteous life, will receive their recompense from their Lord. They have nothing to fear, nor will they grieve.     ان الذين امنوا والذين هادوا والنصارى والصابئين من امن بالله واليوم الاخر وعمل صالحا فلهم اجرهم عند ربهم ولاخوف عليهم ولاهم يحزنون     an alXyn amnwa walXyn hadwa walnSari walSabYyn mn amn ballh walywm alaKr w`ml SalHa flhm ajrhm `nd rbhm wlaKwf `lyhm wlahm yHznwn
 
63.  *     And remember We took your covenant and We raised above you (The towering height) of Mount (Sinai) : (Saying): "Hold firmly to what We have given you and bring (ever) to remembrance what is therein: Perchance ye may fear Allah."     We made a covenant with you, as we raised Mount Sinai above you: "You shall uphold what we have given you strongly, and remember its contents, that you may be saved."     واذ اخذنا ميثاقكم ورفعنا فوقكم الطور خذوا ما اتيناكم بقوة واذكروا مافيه لعلكم تتقون     waX aKXna myxaqkm wrf`na fwqkm alTwr KXwa ma atynakm bqw+ waXkrwa mafyh l`lkm ttqwn
 
64.  *     But ye turned back thereafter: Had it not been for the Grace and Mercy of Allah to you, ye had surely been among the lost.     But you turned away thereafter, and if it were not for GOD's grace towards you and His mercy, you would have been doomed.     ثم توليتم من بعد ذلك فلولا فضل الله عليكم ورحمته لكنتم من الخاسرين     xm twlytm mn b`d Xlk flwla fDl allh `lykm wrHmth lkntm mn alKasryn
 
65.  *     And well ye knew those amongst you who transgressed in the matter of the Sabbath: We said to them: "Be ye apes, despised and rejected."     You have known about those among you who desecrated the Sabbath. We said to them, "Be you as despicable as apes."     ولقد علمتم الذين اعتدوا منكم في السبت فقلنا لهم كونوا قردة خاسئين     wlqd `lmtm alXyn a`tdwa mnkm fy alsbt fqlna lhm kwnwa qrd+ KasYyn
 
66.  *     So We made it an example to their own time and to their posterity, and a lesson to those who fear Allah.     We set them up as an example for their generation, as well as subsequent generations, and an enlightenment for the righteous.     فجعلناها نكالا لما بين يديها وماخلفها وموعظة للمتقين     fj`lnaha nkala lma byn ydyha wmaKlfha wmw`Z+ llmtqyn
 
67.  *     And remember Moses said to his people: "(Allah) commands that ye sacrifice a heifer." They said: "Makest thou a laughing-stock of us?" He said: "(Allah) save me from being an ignorant (fool)!"     Moses said to his people, "GOD commands you to sacrifice a heifer." They said, "Are you mocking us?" He said, "GOD forbid, that I should behave like the ignorant ones."     واذ قال موسى لقومه ان الله يامركم ان تذبحوا بقرة قالوا اتتخذنا هزوا قال اعوذ بالله ان اكون من الجاهلين     waX qal mwsi lqwmh an allh yamrkm an tXbHwa bqr+ qalwa attKXna hzwa qal a`wX ballh an akwn mn aljahlyn
 
68.  *     They said: "Beseech on our behalf Thy Lord to make plain to us what (heifer) it is!" He said; "He says: The heifer should be neither too old nor too young, but of middling age. Now do what ye are commanded!"     They said, "Call upon your Lord to show us which one." He said, "He says that she is a heifer that is neither too old, nor too young; of an intermediate age. Now, carry out what you are commanded to do."     قالوا ادع لنا ربك يبين لنا ماهي قال انه يقول انها بقرة لافارض ولابكر عوان بين ذلك فافعلوا ماتؤمرون     qalwa ad` lna rbk ybyn lna mahy qal anh yqwl anha bqr+ lafarD wlabkr `wan byn Xlk faf`lwa matWmrwn
 
69.  *     They said: "Beseech on our behalf Thy Lord to make plain to us Her colour." He said: "He says: A fawn-coloured heifer, pure and rich in tone, the admiration of beholders!"     They said, "Call upon your Lord to show us her color." He said, "He says that she is a yellow heifer, bright colored, pleases the beholders."     قالوا ادع لنا ربك يبين لنا مالونها قال انه يقول انها بقرة صفراء فاقع لونها تسر الناظرين     qalwa ad` lna rbk ybyn lna malwnha qal anh yqwl anha bqr+ Sfra' faq` lwnha tsr alnaZryn
 
70.  *     They said: "Beseech on our behalf Thy Lord to make plain to us what she is: To us are all heifers alike: We wish indeed for guidance, if Allah wills."     They said, "Call upon your Lord to show us which one. The heifers look alike to us and, GOD willing, we will be guided."     قالوا ادع لنا ربك يبين لنا ماهي ان البقر تشابه علينا وانا ان شاء الله لمهتدون     qalwa ad` lna rbk ybyn lna mahy an albqr t$abh `lyna wana an $a' allh lmhtdwn
 
71.  *     He said: "He says: A heifer not trained to till the soil or water the fields; sound and without blemish." They said: "Now hast thou brought the truth." Then they offered her in sacrifice, but not with good-will.     He said, "He says that she is a heifer that was never humiliated in plowing the land or watering the crops; free from any blemish." They said, "Now you have brought the truth." They finally sacrificed her, after this lengthy reluctance.     قال انه يقول انها بقرةلاذلول تثير الارض ولاتسقي الحرث مسلمة لاشية فيها قالوا الان جئت بالحق فذبحوها وماكادوا يفعلون     qal anh yqwl anha bqr+laXlwl txyr alarD wlatsqy alHrx mslm+ la$y+ fyha qalwa alan jYt balHq fXbHwha wmakadwa yf`lwn
 
72.  *     Remember ye slew a man and fell into a dispute among yourselves as to the crime: But Allah was to bring forth what ye did hide.     You had killed a soul, then disputed among yourselves. GOD was to expose what you tried to conceal.     واذ قتلتم نفسا فادارأتم فيها والله مخرج ماكنتم تكتمون     waX qtltm nfsa fadarAtm fyha wallh mKrj makntm tktmwn
 
73.  *     So We said: "Strike the (body) with a piece of the (heifer)." Thus Allah bringeth the dead to life and showeth you His Signs: Perchance ye may understand.     We said, "Strike (the victim) with part (of the heifer)." That is when GOD brought the victim back to life, and showed you His signs, that you may understand.     فقلنا اضربوه ببعضها كذلك يحيي الله الموتى ويريكم اياته لعلكم تعقلون     fqlna aDrbwh bb`Dha kXlk yHyy allh almwti wyrykm ayath l`lkm t`qlwn
 
74.  *     Thenceforth were your hearts hardened: They became like a rock and even worse in hardness. For among rocks there are some from which rivers gush forth; others there are which when split asunder send forth water; and others which sink for fear of Allah. And Allah is not unmindful of what ye do.     Despite this, your hearts hardened like rocks, or even harder. For there are rocks from which rivers gush out. Others crack and release gentle streams, and other rocks cringe out of reverence for GOD. GOD is never unaware of anything you do.     ثم قست قلوبكم من بعد ذلك فهي كالحجارة او اشد قسوة وان من الحجارة لما يتفجر منه الانهار وان منهالما يشقق فيخرج منه الماء وان منها لما يهبط من خشية الله وما الله بغافل عما تعملون     xm qst qlwbkm mn b`d Xlk fhy kalHjar+ aw a$d qsw+ wan mn alHjar+ lma ytfjr mnh alanhar wan mnhalma y$qq fyKrj mnh alma' wan mnha lma yhbT mn K$y+ allh wma allh bGafl `ma t`mlwn
 
75.  *     Can ye (o ye men of Faith) entertain the hope that they will believe in you?--Seeing that a party of them heard the Word of Allah, and perverted it knowingly after they understood it.     Do you expect them to believe as you do, when some of them used to hear the word of GOD, then distort it, with full understanding thereof, and deliberately?     افتطمعون ان يؤمنوا لكم وقد كان فريق منهم يسمعون كلام الله ثم يحرفونه من بعد ماعقلوه وهم يعلمون     aftTm`wn an yWmnwa lkm wqd kan fryq mnhm ysm`wn klam allh xm yHrfwnh mn b`d ma`qlwh whm y`lmwn
 
76.  *     Behold! when they meet the men of Faith, they say: "We believe": But when they meet each other in private, they say: "Shall you tell them what Allah hath revealed to you, that they may engage you in argument about it before your Lord?"--Do ye not understand (their aim)?     And when they meet the believers, they say, "We believe," but when they get together with each other, they say, "Do not inform (the believers) of the information given to you by GOD, lest you provide them with support for their argument concerning your Lord. Do you not understand?"     واذا لقوا الذين امنوا قالوا امنا واذا خلا بعضهم الى بعض قالوا اتحدثونهم بما فتح الله عليكم ليحاجوكم به عند ربكم افلا تعقلون     waXa lqwa alXyn amnwa qalwa amna waXa Kla b`Dhm ali b`D qalwa atHdxwnhm bma ftH allh `lykm lyHajwkm bh `nd rbkm afla t`qlwn
 
77.  *     Know they not that Allah knoweth what they conceal and what they reveal?     Do they not know that GOD knows everything they conceal, and everything they declare?     اولايعلمون ان الله يعلم مايسرون ومايعلنون     awlay`lmwn an allh y`lm maysrwn wmay`lnwn
 
78.  *     And there are among them illiterates, who know not the Book, but (see therein their own) desires, and they do nothing but conjecture.     Among them are gentiles who do not know the scripture, except through hearsay, then assume that they know it.     ومنهم اميون لايعلمون الكتاب الا اماني وان هم الا يظنون     wmnhm amywn lay`lmwn alktab ala amany wan hm ala yZnwn
 
79.  *     Then woe to those who write the Book with their own hands, and then say:"This is from Allah," to traffic with it for miserable price!--Woe to them for what their hands do write, and for the gain they make thereby.     Therefore, woe to those who distort the scripture with their own hands, then say, "This is what GOD has revealed," seeking a cheap material gain. Woe to them for such distortion, and woe to them for their illicit gains.     فويل للذين يكتبون الكتاب بايديهم ثم يقولون هذا من عند الله ليشتروا به ثمنا قليلا فويل لهم مما كتبت ايديهم وويل لهم مما يكسبون     fwyl llXyn yktbwn alktab baydyhm xm yqwlwn hXa mn `nd allh ly$trwa bh xmna qlyla fwyl lhm mma ktbt aydyhm wwyl lhm mma yksbwn
 
80.  *     And they say: "The Fire shall not touch us but for a few numbered days:" Say: "Have ye taken a promise from Allah, for He never breaks His promise? or is it that ye say of Allah what ye do not know?"     Some have said, "Hell will not touch us, except for a limited number of days." Say, "Have you taken such a pledge from GOD - GOD never breaks His pledge - or, are you saying about GOD what you do not know?"     وقالوا لن تمسنا النار الا اياما معدودة قل اتخذتم عند الله عهدا فلن يخلف الله عهده ام تقولون على الله مالاتعلمون     wqalwa ln tmsna alnar ala ayama m`dwd+ ql atKXtm `nd allh `hda fln yKlf allh `hdh am tqwlwn `li allh malat`lmwn
 
81.  *     Nay, those who seek gain in evil, and are girt round by their sins,--they are companions of the Fire: Therein shall they abide (For ever).     Indeed, those who earn sins and become surrounded by their evil work will be the dwellers of Hell; they abide in it forever.     بلى من كسب سيئة واحاطت به خطيئته فاولئك اصحاب النار هم فيها خالدون     bli mn ksb syY+ waHaTt bh KTyYth fawlYk aSHab alnar hm fyha Kaldwn
 
82.  *     But those who have faith and work righteousness, they are companions of the Garden: Therein shall they abide (For ever).     As for those who believe, and lead a righteous life, they will be the dwellers of Paradise; they abide in it forever.     والذين امنوا وعملوا الصالحات اولئك اصحاب الجنة هم فيها خالدون     walXyn amnwa w`mlwa alSalHat awlYk aSHab aljn+ hm fyha Kaldwn
 
83.  *     And remember We took a covenant from the Children of Israel (to this effect): Worship none but Allah. treat with kindness your parents and kindred, and orphans and those in need; speak fair to the people; be steadfast in prayer; and practise regular charity. Then did ye turn back, except a few among you, and ye backslide (even now).     We made a covenant with the Children of Israel: "You shall not worship except GOD. You shall honor your parents and regard the relatives, the orphans, and the poor. You shall treat the people amicably. You shall observe the Contact Prayers (Salat) and give the obligatory charity (Zakat)." But you turned away, except a few of you, and you became averse.     واذ اخذنا ميثاق بني اسرائيل لاتعبدون الا الله وبالوالدين احسانا وذي القربى واليتامى والمساكين وقولوا للناس حسنا واقيموا الصلاة واتوا الزكاة ثم توليتم الا قليلا منكم وانتم معرضون     waX aKXna myxaq bny asraYyl lat`bdwn ala allh wbalwaldyn aHsana wXy alqrbi walytami walmsakyn wqwlwa llnas Hsna waqymwa alSla+ watwa alzka+ xm twlytm ala qlyla mnkm wantm m`rDwn
 
84.  *     And remember We took your covenant (to this effect): Shed no blood amongst you, nor turn out your own people from your homes: and this ye solemnly ratified, and to this ye can bear witness.     We made a covenant with you, that you shall not shed your blood, nor shall you evict each other from your homes. You agreed and bore witness.     واذا اخذنا ميثاقكم لاتسفكون دماءكم ولاتخرجون انفسكم من دياركم ثم اقررتم وانتم تشهدون     waXa aKXna myxaqkm latsfkwn dma'km wlatKrjwn anfskm mn dyarkm xm aqrrtm wantm t$hdwn
 
85.  *     After this it is ye, the same people, who slay among yourselves, and banish a party of you from their homes; assist (Their enemies) against them, in guilt and rancour; and if they come to you as captives, ye ransom them, though it was not lawful for you to banish them. Then is it only a part of the Book that ye believe in, and do ye reject the rest? but what is the reward for those among you who behave like this but disgrace in this life?--and on the Day of Judgment they shall be consigned to the most grievous penalty. For Allah is not unmindful of what ye do.     Yet, here you are killing each other, and evicting some of you from their homes, banding against them sinfully and maliciously. Even when they surrendered, you demanded ransom from them. Evicting them was prohibited for you in the first place. Do you believe in part of the scripture and disbelieve in part? What should be the retribution for those among you who do this, except humiliation in this life, and a far worse retribution on the Day of Resurrection? GOD is never unaware of anything you do.     ثم انتم هؤلاء تقتلون انفسكم وتخرجون فريقا منكم من ديارهم تظاهرون عليهم بالاثم والعدوان وان ياتوكم اسارى تفادوهم وهو محرم عليكم اخراجهم افتؤمنون ببعض الكتاب وتكفرون ببعض فما جزاء من يفعل ذلك منكم الا خزي في الحياة الدنيا ويوم القيامة يردون الى اشد العذاب وماالله بغافل عما تعملون     xm antm hWla' tqtlwn anfskm wtKrjwn fryqa mnkm mn dyarhm tZahrwn `lyhm balaxm wal`dwan wan yatwkm asari tfadwhm whw mHrm `lykm aKrajhm aftWmnwn bb`D alktab wtkfrwn bb`D fma jza' mn yf`l Xlk mnkm ala Kzy fy alHya+ aldnya wywm alqyam+ yrdwn ali a$d al`Xab wmaallh bGafl `ma t`mlwn
 
86.  *     These are the people who buy the life of this world at the price of the Hereafter: their penalty shall not be lightened nor shall they be helped.     It is they who bought this lowly life at the expense of the Hereafter. Consequently, the retribution is never commuted for them, nor can they be helped.     اولئك الذين اشتروا الحياة الدنيا بالاخرة فلا يخفف عنهم العذاب ولاهم ينصرون     awlYk alXyn a$trwa alHya+ aldnya balaKr+ fla yKff `nhm al`Xab wlahm ynSrwn
 
87.  *     We gave Moses the Book and followed him up with a succession of apostles; We gave Jesus the son of Mary Clear (Signs) and strengthened him with the holy spirit. Is it that whenever there comes to you an apostle with what ye yourselves desire not, ye are puffed up with pride?--Some ye called impostors, and others ye slay!     We gave Moses the scripture, and subsequent to him we sent other messengers, and we gave Jesus, son of Mary, profound miracles and supported him with the Holy Spirit. Is it not a fact that every time a messenger went to you with anything you disliked, your ego caused you to be arrogant? Some of them you rejected, and some of them you killed.     ولقد اتينا موسى الكتاب وقفينا من بعده بالرسل واتينا عيسى ابن مريم البينات وايدناه بروح القدس افكلما جاءكم رسول بما لاتهوى انفسكم استكبرتم ففريقا كذبتم وفريقا تقتلون     wlqd atyna mwsi alktab wqfyna mn b`dh balrsl watyna `ysi abn mrym albynat waydnah brwH alqds afklma ja'km rswl bma lathwi anfskm astkbrtm ffryqa kXbtm wfryqa tqtlwn
 
88.  *     They say, "Our hearts are the wrappings (which preserve Allah's Word: we need no more)." Nay, Allah's curse is on them for their blasphemy: Little is it they believe.     Some would say, "Our minds are made up!" Instead, it is a curse from GOD, as a consequence of their disbelief, that keeps them from believing, except for a few of them.     وقالوا قلوبنا غلف بل لعنهم الله بكفرهم فقليلا مايؤمنون     wqalwa qlwbna Glf bl l`nhm allh bkfrhm fqlyla mayWmnwn
 
89.  *     And when there comes to them a Book from Allah, confirming what is with them,--although from of old they had prayed for victory against those without Faith,--when there comes to them that which they (should) have recognised, they refuse to believe in it but the curse of Allah is on those without Faith.     When this scripture came to them from GOD, and even though it agrees with, and confirms what they have, and even though they used to prophesy its advent when they talked with the disbelievers, when their own prophecy came to pass, they disbelieved therein. GOD's condemnation thus afflicts the disbelievers.     ولما جاءهم كتاب من عند الله مصدق لما معهم وكانوا من قبل يستفتحون على الذين كفروا فلما جاءهم ماعرفوا كفروا به فلعنة الله على الكافرين     wlma ja'hm ktab mn `nd allh mSdq lma m`hm wkanwa mn qbl ystftHwn `li alXyn kfrwa flma ja'hm ma`rfwa kfrwa bh fl`n+ allh `li alkafryn
 
90.  *     Miserable is the price for which they have sold their souls, in that they deny (the revelation) which Allah has sent down, in insolent envy that Allah of His Grace should send it to any of His servants He pleases: Thus have they drawn on themselves Wrath upon Wrath. And humiliating is the punishment of those who reject Faith.     Miserable indeed is what they sold their souls for - rejecting these revelations of GOD out of sheer resentment that GOD should bestow His grace upon whomever He chooses from among His servants. Consequently, they incurred wrath upon wrath. The disbelievers have incurred a humiliating retribution.     بئسما اشتروا به انفسهم ان يكفروا بما انزل الله بغيا ان ينزل الله من فضله على من يشاء من عباده فباؤوا بغضب على غضب وللكافرين عذاب مهين     bYsma a$trwa bh anfshm an ykfrwa bma anzl allh bGya an ynzl allh mn fDlh `li mn y$a' mn `badh fbaWwa bGDb `li GDb wllkafryn `Xab mhyn
 
91.  *     When it is said to them, "Believe in what Allah Hath sent down, "they say, "We believe in what was sent down to us:" yet they reject all besides, even if it be Truth confirming what is with them. Say: "Why then have ye slain the prophets of Allah in times gone by, if ye did indeed believe?"     When they are told, "You shall believe in these revelations of GOD," they say, "We believe only in what was sent down to us." Thus, they disbelieve in subsequent revelations, even if it is the truth from their Lord, and even though it confirms what they have! Say, "Why then did you kill GOD's prophets, if you were believers?"     واذا قيل لهم امنوا بما انزل الله قالوا نؤمن بما انزل علينا ويكفرون بما وراءه وهو الحق مصدقا لما معهم قل فلم تقتلون انبياء الله من قبل ان كنتم مؤمنين     waXa qyl lhm amnwa bma anzl allh qalwa nWmn bma anzl `lyna wykfrwn bma wra'h whw alHq mSdqa lma m`hm ql flm tqtlwn anbya' allh mn qbl an kntm mWmnyn

93.  *     And remember We took your covenant and We raised above you (the towering height) of Mount (Sinai): (Saying): "Hold firmly to what We have given you, and hearken (to the Law)": They said:" We hear, and we disobey:" And they had to drink into their hearts (of the taint) of the calf because of their Faithlessness. Say: "Vile indeed are the behests of your Faith if ye have any faith!"     We made a covenant with you, as we raised Mount Sinai above you, saying, "You shall uphold the commandments we have given you, strongly, and listen." They said, "We hear, but we disobey." Their hearts became filled with adoration for the calf, due to their disbelief. Say, "Miserable indeed is what your faith dictates upon you, if you do have any faith."     واذ اخذنا ميثاقكم ورفعنا فوقكم الطور خذوا مااتيناكم بقوة واسمعوا قالوا سمعنا وعصينا واشربوا في قلوبهم العجل بكفرهم قل بئسما يامركم به ايمانكم ان كنتم مؤمنين     waX aKXna myxaqkm wrf`na fwqkm alTwr KXwa maatynakm bqw+ wasm`wa qalwa sm`na w`Syna wa$rbwa fy qlwbhm al`jl bkfrhm ql bYsma yamrkm bh aymankm an kntm mWmnyn
 
94.  *     Say: "If the last Home, with Allah, be for you specially, and not for anyone else, then seek ye for death, if ye are sincere."     Say, "If the abode of the Hereafter is reserved for you at GOD, to the exclusion of all other people, then you should long for death, if you are truthful."     قل ان كانت لكم الدار الاخرة عند الله خالصة من دون الناس فتمنوا الموت ان كنتم صادقين     ql an kant lkm aldar alaKr+ `nd allh KalS+ mn dwn alnas ftmnwa almwt an kntm Sadqyn
 
95.  *     But they will never seek for death, on account of the (sins) which their hands have sent on before them. and Allah is well-acquainted with the wrong-doers.     They never long for it, because of what their hands have sent forth. GOD is fully aware of the wicked.     ولن يتمنوه ابدا بما قدمت ايديهم والله عليم بالظالمين     wln ytmnwh abda bma qdmt aydyhm wallh `lym balZalmyn
 
96.  *     Thou wilt indeed find them, of all people, most greedy of life,--even more than the idolaters: Each one of them wishes He could be given a life of a thousand years: But the grant of such life will not save him from (due) punishment. For Allah sees well all that they do.     In fact, you will find them the most covetous of life; even more so than the idol worshipers. The one of them wishes to live a thousand years. But this will not spare him any retribution, no matter how long he lives. GOD is seer of everything they do.     ولتجدنهم احرص الناس على حياة ومن الذين اشركوا يود احدهم لو يعمر الف سنة وماهو بمزحزحه من العذاب ان يعمر والله بصير بما يعملون     wltjdnhm aHrS alnas `li Hya+ wmn alXyn a$rkwa ywd aHdhm lw y`mr alf sn+ wmahw bmzHzHh mn al`Xab an y`mr wallh bSyr bma y`mlwn
 
97.  *     Say: Whoever is an enemy to Gabriel-for he brings down the (revelation) to thy heart by Allah's will, a confirmation of what went before, and guidance and glad tidings for those who believe,--     Say, "Anyone who opposes Gabriel should know that he has brought down this (Quran) into your heart, in accordance with GOD's will, confirming previous scriptures, and providing guidance and good news for the believers."     قل من كان عدوا لجبريل فانه نزله على قلبك باذن الله مصدقا لما بين يديه وهدى وبشرى للمؤمنين     ql mn kan `dwa ljbryl fanh nzlh `li qlbk baXn allh mSdqa lma byn ydyh whdi wb$ri llmWmnyn
 
98.  *     Whoever is an enemy to Allah and His angels and apostles, to Gabriel and Michael,--Lo! Allah is an enemy to those who reject Faith.     Anyone who opposes GOD, and His angels, and His messengers, and Gabriel and Michael, should know that GOD opposes the disbelievers.     من كان عدوا لله وملائكته ورسله وجبريل وميكال فان الله عدو للكافرين     mn kan `dwa llh wmlaYkth wrslh wjbryl wmykal fan allh `dw llkafryn
 
99.  *     We have sent down to thee Manifest Signs (ayat); and none reject them but those who are perverse.     We have sent down to you such clear revelations, and only the wicked will reject them.     ولقد انزلنا اليك ايات بينات ومايكفر بها الا الفاسقون     wlqd anzlna alyk ayat bynat wmaykfr bha ala alfasqwn
 
100.  *     Is it not (the case) that every time they make a covenant, some party among them throw it aside?--Nay, Most of them are faithless.     Is it not a fact that when they make a covenant and pledge to keep it, some of them always disregard it? In fact, most of them do not believe.     او كلما عاهدوا عهدا نبذه فريق منهم بل اكثرهم لايؤمنون     aw klma `ahdwa `hda nbXh fryq mnhm bl akxrhm layWmnwn
 
101.  *     And when there came to them an apostle from Allah, confirming what was with them, a party of the people of the Book threw away the Book of Allah behind their backs, as if (it had been something) they did not know!     Now that a messenger from GOD has come to them, and even though he proves and confirms their own scripture, some followers of the scripture (Jews, Christians, and Muslims) disregard GOD's scripture behind their backs, as if they never had any scripture.     ولما جاءهم رسول من عند الله مصدق لما معهم نبذ فريق من الذين اوتوا الكتاب كتاب الله وراء ظهورهم كانهم لايعلمون     wlma ja'hm rswl mn `nd allh mSdq lma m`hm nbX fryq mn alXyn awtwa alktab ktab allh wra' Zhwrhm kanhm lay`lmwn
 
102.  *     They followed what the evil ones gave out (falsely) against the power of Solomon: the blasphemers Were, not Solomon, but the evil ones, teaching men Magic, and such things as came down at babylon to the angels Harut and Marut. But neither of these taught anyone (Such things) without saying: "We are only for trial; so do not blaspheme." They learned from them the means to sow discord between man and wife. But they could not thus harm anyone except by Allah's permission. And they learned what harmed them, not what profited them. And they knew that the buyers of (magic) would have no share in the happiness of the Hereafter. And vile was the price for which they did sell their souls, if they but knew!     They pursued what the devils taught concerning Solomon's kingdom. Solomon, however, was not a disbeliever, but the devils were disbelievers. They taught the people sorcery, and that which was sent down through the two angels of Babel, Haroot and Maroot. These two did not divulge such knowledge without pointing out: "This is a test. You shall not abuse such knowledge." But the people used it in such evil schemes as the breaking up of marriages. They can never harm anyone against the will of GOD. They thus learn what hurts them, not what benefits them, and they know full well that whoever practices witchcraft will have no share in the Hereafter. Miserable indeed is what they sell their souls for, if they only knew.     واتبعوا ماتتلو الشياطين على ملك سليمان وماكفر سليمان ولكن الشياطين كفروا يعلمون الناس السحر وماانزل على الملكين ببابل هاروت وماروت ومايعلمان من احد حتى يقولا انما نحن فتنة فلا تكفر فيتعلمون منهما مايفرقون به بين المرء وزوجه وماهم بضارين به من احد الا  باذن الله ويتعلمون مايضرهم ولاينفعهم ولقد علموا لمن اشتراه ماله في الاخرة من خلاق ولبئس ماشروا به انفسهم لو كانوا يعلمون     watb`wa mattlw al$yaTyn `li mlk slyman wmakfr slyman wlkn al$yaTyn kfrwa y`lmwn alnas alsHr wmaanzl `li almlkyn bbabl harwt wmarwt wmay`lman mn aHd Hti yqwla anma nHn ftn+ fla tkfr fyt`lmwn mnhma mayfrqwn bh byn almr' wzwjh wmahm bDaryn bh mn aHd ala  baXn allh wyt`lmwn mayDrhm wlaynf`hm wlqd `lmwa lmn a$trah malh fy alaKr+ mn Klaq wlbYs ma$rwa bh anfshm lw kanwa y`lmwn
 
103.  *     If they had kept their Faith and guarded themselves from evil, far better had been the reward from their Lord, if they but knew!     If they believe and lead a righteous life, the reward from GOD is far better, if they only knew.     ولو انهم امنوا واتقوا لمثوبة من عند الله خير لو كانوا يعلمون     wlw anhm amnwa watqwa lmxwb+ mn `nd allh Kyr lw kanwa y`lmwn
 
104.  *     O ye of Faith! Say not (to the Messenger. words of ambiguous import, but words of respect; and hearken (to him): To those without Faith is a grievous punishment.     O you who believe, do not say, "Raa`ena" (be our shepherd). Instead, you should say, "Unzurna" (watch over us), and listen. The disbelievers have incurred a painful retribution.     ياايها الذين امنوا لاتقولوا راعنا وقولوا انظرنا واسمعوا وللكافرين عذاب اليم     yaayha alXyn amnwa latqwlwa ra`na wqwlwa anZrna wasm`wa wllkafryn `Xab alym
 
105.  *     It is never the wish of those without Faith among the People of the Book, nor of the Pagans, that anything good should come down to you from your Lord. But Allah will choose for His special Mercy whom He will--for Allah is Lord of grace abounding.     Neither the disbelievers among the followers of the scripture, nor the idol worshipers, wish to see any blessings come down to you from your Lord. However, GOD showers His blessings upon whomever He chooses. GOD possesses infinite grace.     مايود الذين كفروا من اهل الكتاب ولا المشركين ان ينزل عليكم من خير من ربكم والله يختص برحمته من يشاء والله ذو الفضل العظيم     maywd alXyn kfrwa mn ahl alktab wla alm$rkyn an ynzl `lykm mn Kyr mn rbkm wallh yKtS brHmth mn y$a' wallh Xw alfDl al`Zym
 
106.  *     None of Our revelations do We abrogate or cause to be forgotten, but We substitute something better or similar: Knowest thou not that Allah Hath power over all things?     When we abrogate any miracle, or cause it to be forgotten, we produce a better miracle, or at least an equal one. Do you not recognize the fact that GOD is Omnipotent?     ماننسخ من اية او ننسها نات بخير منها او مثلها الم تعلم ان الله على كل شئ قدير     mannsK mn ay+ aw nnsha nat bKyr mnha aw mxlha alm t`lm an allh `li kl $Y qdyr
 
107.  *     Knowest thou not that to Allah belongeth the dominion of the heavens and the earth? And besides Him ye have neither patron nor helper.     Do you not recognize the fact that GOD possesses the kingship of the heavens and the earth; that you have none besides GOD as your Lord and Master?     الم تعلم ان الله له ملك السماوات والارض ومالكم من دون الله من ولي ولانصير     alm t`lm an allh lh mlk alsmawat walarD wmalkm mn dwn allh mn wly wlanSyr
 
108.  *     Would ye question your Messenger as Moses was questioned of old? but whoever changeth from Faith to Unbelief, Hath strayed without doubt from the even way.     Do you wish to demand of your messenger what was demanded of Moses in the past? Anyone who chooses disbelief, instead of belief, has truly strayed off the right path.     ام تريدون ان تسئلوا رسولكم كما سئل موسى من قبل ومن يتبدل الكفر بالايمان فقد ضل سواء السبيل     am trydwn an tsYlwa rswlkm kma sYl mwsi mn qbl wmn ytbdl alkfr balayman fqd Dl swa' alsbyl
 
109.  *     Quite a number of the People of the Book wish they could Turn you (people) back to infidelity after ye have believed, from selfish envy, after the Truth hath become Manifest unto them: But forgive and overlook, Till Allah accomplish His purpose; for Allah Hath power over all things.     Many followers of the scripture would rather see you revert to disbelief, now that you have believed. This is due to jealousy on their part, after the truth has become evident to them. You shall pardon them, and leave them alone, until GOD issues His judgment. GOD is Omnipotent.     ود كثير من اهل الكتاب لو يردونكم من بعد ايمانكم كفارا حسدا من عند انفسهم من بعد ماتبين لهم الحق فاعفوا واصفحوا حتي ياتي الله بامره ان الله على كل شئ قدير     wd kxyr mn ahl alktab lw yrdwnkm mn b`d aymankm kfara Hsda mn `nd anfshm mn b`d matbyn lhm alHq fa`fwa waSfHwa Hty yaty allh bamrh an allh `li kl $Y qdyr
 
110.  *     And be steadfast in prayer and regular in charity: And whatever good ye send forth for your souls before you, ye shall find it with Allah. for Allah sees Well all that ye do.     You shall observe the Contact Prayers (Salat) and give the obligatory charity (Zakat). Any good you send forth on behalf of your souls, you will find it at GOD. GOD is seer of everything you do.     واقيموا الصلاة واتوا الزكاة وماتقدموا لانفسكم من خير تجدوه عند الله ان الله بما تعملون بصير     waqymwa alSla+ watwa alzka+ wmatqdmwa lanfskm mn Kyr tjdwh `nd allh an allh bma t`mlwn bSyr
 
111.  *     And they say: "None shall enter Paradise unless he be a Jew or a Christian." Those are their (vain) desires. Say: "Produce your proof if ye are truthful."     Some have said, "No one will enter Paradise except Jews or Christians!" Such is their wishful thinking. Say, "Show us your proof, if you are right."     وقالوا لن يدخل الجنة الا من كان هودا او نصارى تلك امانيهم قل هاتوا برهانكم ان كنتم صادقين     wqalwa ln ydKl aljn+ ala mn kan hwda aw nSari tlk amanyhm ql hatwa brhankm an kntm Sadqyn
 
112.  *     Nay,--whoever submits His whole self to Allah and is a doer of good,--He will get his reward with his Lord; on such shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.     Indeed, those who submit themselves absolutely to GOD alone, while leading a righteous life, will receive their recompense from their Lord; they have nothing to fear, nor will they grieve.     بلى من اسلم وجهه لله وهو محسن فله اجره عند ربه ولاخوف عليهم ولاهم يحزنون     bli mn aslm wjhh llh whw mHsn flh ajrh `nd rbh wlaKwf `lyhm wlahm yHznwn
 
113.  *     The Jews say: "The Christians have naught (to stand) upon; and the Christians say: "The Jews have naught (To stand) upon." Yet they (Profess to) study the (same) Book. Like unto their word is what those say who know not; but Allah will judge between them in their quarrel on the Day of Judgment.     The Jews said, "The Christians have no basis," while the Christians said, "The Jews have no basis." Yet, both of them read the scripture. Such are the utterances of those who possess no knowledge. GOD will judge them on the Day of Resurrection, regarding their disputes.     وقالت اليهود ليست النصارى على شئ وقالت النصارى ليست اليهود على شئ وهم يتلون الكتاب كذلك قال الذين لايعلمون مثل قولهم فالله يحكم بينهم يوم القيامة فيما كانوا فيه يختلفون     wqalt alyhwd lyst alnSari `li $Y wqalt alnSari lyst alyhwd `li $Y whm ytlwn alktab kXlk qal alXyn lay`lmwn mxl qwlhm fallh yHkm bynhm ywm alqyam+ fyma kanwa fyh yKtlfwn
 
114.  *     And who is more unjust than he who forbids that in places for the worship of Allah, Allah's name should be celebrated?-whose zeal is (in fact) to ruin them? It was not fitting that such should themselves enter them except in fear. For them there is nothing but disgrace in this world, and in the world to come, an exceeding torment.     Who are more evil than those who boycott GOD's masjids, where His name is commemorated, and contribute to their desertion? These ought not to enter therein except fearfully. They will suffer in this life humiliation, and will suffer in the Hereafter a terrible retribution.     ومن اظلم ممن منع مساجد الله ان يذكر فيها اسمه وسعى في خرابها اولئك ما كان لهم ان يدخلوها الا خائفين لهم في الدنيا خزي ولهم في الاخرة عذاب عظيم     wmn aZlm mmn mn` msajd allh an yXkr fyha asmh ws`i fy Krabha awlYk ma kan lhm an ydKlwha ala KaYfyn lhm fy aldnya Kzy wlhm fy alaKr+ `Xab `Zym
 
115.  *     To Allah belong the east and the West: Whithersoever ye turn, there is the presence of Allah. For Allah is all-Pervading, all-Knowing.     To GOD belongs the east and the west; wherever you go there will be the presence of GOD. GOD is Omnipresent, Omniscient.     ولله المشرق والمغرب فاينما تولوا فثم وجه الله ان الله واسع عليم     wllh alm$rq walmGrb faynma twlwa fxm wjh allh an allh was` `lym
 
116.  *     They say: "(Allah) hath begotten a son" :Glory be to Him.--Nay, to Him belongs all that is in the heavens and on earth: everything renders worship to Him.     They said, "GOD has begotten a son!" Be He glorified; never! To Him belongs everything in the heavens and the earth; all are subservient to Him.     وقالوا اتخذالله ولدا سبحانه بل له مافي السماوات والارض كل له قانتون     wqalwa atKXallh wlda sbHanh bl lh mafy alsmawat walarD kl lh qantwn
 
117.  *     To Him is due the primal origin of the heavens and the earth: When He decreeth a matter, He saith to it: "Be," and it is.     The Initiator of the heavens and the earth: to have anything done, He simply says to it, "Be," and it is.     بديع السماوات والارض واذا قضى امرا فانما يقول له كن فيكون     bdy` alsmawat walarD waXa qDi amra fanma yqwl lh kn fykwn
 
118.  *     Say those without knowledge: "Why speaketh not Allah unto us? or why cometh not unto us a Sign?" So said the people before them words of similar import. Their hearts are alike. We have indeed made clear the Signs unto any people who hold firmly to Faith (in their hearts).     Those who possess no knowledge say, "If only GOD could speak to us, or some miracle could come to us!" Others before them have uttered similar utterances; their minds are similar. We do manifest the miracles for those who have attained certainty.     وقال الذين لايعلمون لولا يكلمنا الله او تاتينا اية كذلك قال الذين من قبلهم مثل قولهم تشابهت قلوبهم قد بينا الايات لقوم يوقنون     wqal alXyn lay`lmwn lwla yklmna allh aw tatyna ay+ kXlk qal alXyn mn qblhm mxl qwlhm t$abht qlwbhm qd byna alayat lqwm ywqnwn
 
119.  *     Verily We have sent thee in truth as a bearer of glad tidings and a warner: But of thee no question shall be asked of the Companions of the Blazing Fire.     We have sent you with the truth as a bearer of good news, as well as a warner. You are not answerable for those who incur Hell.     انا ارسلناك بالحق بشيرا ونذيرا ولاتسأل عن اصحاب الجحيم     ana arslnak balHq b$yra wnXyra wlatsAl `n aSHab aljHym
 
120.  *     Never will the Jews or the Christians be satisfied with thee unless thou follow their form of religion. Say: "The Guidance of Allah,--that is the (only) Guidance." Wert thou to follow their desires after the knowledge which hath reached thee, then wouldst thou find neither Protector nor helper against Allah.     Neither the Jews, nor the Christians, will accept you, unless you follow their religion. Say, "GOD's guidance is the true guidance." If you acquiesce to their wishes, despite the knowledge you have received, you will find no ally or supporter to help you against GOD.     ولن ترضى عنك اليهود ولاالنصارى حتى تتبع ملتهم قل ان هدى الله هو الهدى ولئن اتبعت اهواءهم بعد الذي جاءك من العلم مالك من الله من ولي ولانصير     wln trDi `nk alyhwd wlaalnSari Hti ttb` mlthm ql an hdi allh hw alhdi wlYn atb`t ahwa'hm b`d alXy ja'k mn al`lm malk mn allh mn wly wlanSyr
 
121.  *     Those to whom We have sent the Book study it as it should be studied: They are the ones that believe therein: Those who reject faith therein,--the loss is their own.     Those who received the scripture, and know it as it should be known, will believe in this. As for those who disbelieve, they are the losers.     الذين اتيناهم الكتاب يتلونه حق تلاوته اولئك يؤمنون به ومن يكفر به فاولئك هم الخاسرون     alXyn atynahm alktab ytlwnh Hq tlawth awlYk yWmnwn bh wmn ykfr bh fawlYk hm alKasrwn
 
122.  *     O Children of Israel! call to mind the special favour which I bestowed upon you, and that I preferred you to all others (for My Message).     O Children of Israel, remember My favor which I bestowed upon you, and that I blessed you more than any other people.     يابني اسرائيل اذكروا نعمتي التي انعمت عليكم واني فضلتكم على العالمين     yabny asraYyl aXkrwa n`mty alty an`mt `lykm wany fDltkm `li al`almyn
 
123.  *     Then guard yourselves against a-Day when one soul shall not avail another, nor shall compensation be accepted from her nor shall intercession profit her nor shall anyone be helped (from outside).     Beware of the day when no soul will help another soul, no ransom will be accepted, no intercession will be useful, and no one will be helped.     واتقوا يوما لاتجزي نفس عن نفس شيئا ولايقبل منها عدل ولاتنفعها شفاعة ولا هم ينصرون     watqwa ywma latjzy nfs `n nfs $yYa wlayqbl mnha `dl wlatnf`ha $fa`+ wla hm ynSrwn
 
124.  *     And remember that Abraham was tried by his Lord with certain commands, which he fulfilled: He said: "I will make thee an Imam to the Nations." He pleaded: "And also (Imams) from my offspring!" He answered: "But My Promise is not within the reach of evil-doers."     Recall that Abraham was put to the test by his Lord, through certain commands, and he fulfilled them. (God) said, "I am appointing you an imam for the people." He said, "And also my descendants?" He said, "My covenant does not include the transgressors."     واذ ابتلى ابراهيم ربه بكلمات فاتمهن قال اني جاعلك للناس اماما قال ومن ذريتي قال لاينال عهدي الظالمين     waX abtli abrahym rbh bklmat fatmhn qal any ja`lk llnas amama qal wmn Xryty qal laynal `hdy alZalmyn
 
125.  *     Remember We made the House a place of assembly for men and a place of safety; and take ye the station of Abraham as a place of prayer; and We covenanted with Abraham and Isma'il, that they should sanctify My House for those who compass it round, or use it as a retreat, or bow, or prostrate themselves (therein in prayer).     We have rendered the shrine (the Ka`aba) a focal point for the people, and a safe sanctuary. You may use Abraham's shrine as a prayer house. We commissioned Abraham and Ismail: "You shall purify My house for those who visit, those who live there, and those who bow and prostrate."     واذ جعلنا البيت مثابة للناس وامنا واتخذوا من مقام ابراهيم مصلى وعهدنا الى ابراهيم واسماعيل ان طهرا بيتي للطائفين والعاكفين والركع السجود     waX j`lna albyt mxab+ llnas wamna watKXwa mn mqam abrahym mSli w`hdna ali abrahym wasma`yl an Thra byty llTaYfyn wal`akfyn walrk` alsjwd
 
126.  *     And remember Abraham said: "My Lord, make this a City of Peace, and feed its people with fruits,--such of them as believe in Allah and the Last Day." He said: "(Yea), and such as reject Faith,--for a while will I grant them their pleasure, but will soon drive them to the torment of Fire,--an evil destination (indeed)!"     Abraham prayed: "My Lord, make this a peaceful land, and provide its people with fruits. Provide for those who believe in GOD and the Last Day." (God) said, "I will also provide for those who disbelieve. I will let them enjoy, temporarily, then commit them to the retribution of Hell, and a miserable destiny."     واذ قال ابراهيم رب اجعل هذا بلدا امنا وارزق اهله من الثمرات من امن منهم بالله واليوم الاخر قال ومن كفر فامتعه قليلا ثم اضطره الى عذاب النار وبئس المصير     waX qal abrahym rb aj`l hXa blda amna warzq ahlh mn alxmrat mn amn mnhm ballh walywm alaKr qal wmn kfr famt`h qlyla xm aDTrh ali `Xab alnar wbYs almSyr
 
127.  *     And remember Abraham and Isma'il raised the foundations of the House (With this prayer): "Our Lord! Accept (this service) from us: For Thou art the All-Hearing, the All-knowing.     As Abraham raised the foundations of the shrine, together with Ismail (they prayed): "Our Lord, accept this from us. You are the Hearer, the Omniscient.     واذ يرفع ابراهيم القواعد من البيت واسماعيل ربنا تقبل منا انك انت السميع العليم     waX yrf` abrahym alqwa`d mn albyt wasma`yl rbna tqbl mna ank ant alsmy` al`lym
 
128.  *     "Our Lord! make of us Muslims, bowing to Thy (Will), and of our progeny a people Muslim, bowing to Thy (will); and show us our place for the celebration of (due) rites; and turn unto us (in Mercy); for Thou art the Oft-Returning, Most Merciful.     "Our Lord, make us submitters to You, and from our descendants let there be a community of submitters to You. Teach us the rites of our religion, and redeem us. You are the Redeemer, Most Merciful.     ربنا واجعلنا مسلمين لك ومن ذريتنا امة مسلمة لك وارنا مناسكنا وتب علينا انك انت التواب الرحيم     rbna waj`lna mslmyn lk wmn Xrytna am+ mslm+ lk warna mnaskna wtb `lyna ank ant altwab alrHym
 
129.  *     "Our Lord! send amongst them an Messenger of their own, who shall rehearse Thy Signs to them and instruct them in scripture and wisdom, and sanctify them: For Thou art the Exalted in Might, the Wise."     "Our Lord, and raise among them a messenger to recite to them Your revelations, teach them the scripture and wisdom, and purify them. You are the Almighty, Most Wise."     ربنا وابعث فيهم رسولا منهم يتلو عليهم اياتك ويعلمهم الكتاب والحكمة ويزكيهم انك انت العزيز الحكيم     rbna wab`x fyhm rswla mnhm ytlw `lyhm ayatk wy`lmhm alktab walHkm+ wyzkyhm ank ant al`zyz alHkym
 
130.  *     And who turns away from the religion of Abraham but such as debase their souls with folly? Him We chose and rendered pure in this world: And he will be in the Hereafter in the ranks of the Righteous.     Who would forsake the religion of Abraham, except one who fools his own soul? We have chosen him in this world, and in the Hereafter he will be with the righteous.     ومن يرغب عن ملة ابراهيم الا من سفه نفسه ولقد اصطفيناه في الدنيا وانه في الاخرة لمن الصالحين     wmn yrGb `n ml+ abrahym ala mn sfh nfsh wlqd aSTfynah fy aldnya wanh fy alaKr+ lmn alSalHyn
 
131.  *     Behold! his Lord said to him: "Bow (thy will to Me):" He said: "I bow (my will) to the Lord and Cherisher of the Universe."     When his Lord said to him, "Submit," he said, "I submit to the Lord of the universe."     اذ قال له ربه اسلم قال اسلمت لرب العالمين     aX qal lh rbh aslm qal aslmt lrb al`almyn

Allah hath chosen the Faith for you; then die not except in the Faith of Islam."     Moreover, Abraham exhorted his children to do the same, and so did Jacob: "O my children, GOD has pointed out the religion for you; do not die except as submitters."     ووصى بها ابراهيم بنيه ويعقوب يابني ان الله اصطفى لكم الدين فلاتموتن الا وانتم مسلمون     wwSi bha abrahym bnyh wy`qwb yabny an allh aSTfi lkm aldyn flatmwtn ala wantm mslmwn
 
133.  *     Were ye witnesses when death appeared before Jacob? Behold, he said to his sons: "What will ye worship after me?" They said: "We shall worship Thy Allah and the Allah of thy fathers, of Abraham, Isma'il and Isaac,--the one (True) Allah. To Him we bow (in Islam)."     Had you witnessed Jacob on his death bed; he said to his children, "What will you worship after I die?" They said, "We will worship your god; the god of your fathers Abraham, Ismail, and Isaac; the one god. To Him we are submitters."     ام كنتم شهداء اذ حضر يعقوب الموت اذ قال لبنيه ماتعبدون من بعدي قالوا نعبدالهك واله ابائك ابراهيم واسماعيل واسحاق الها واحدا ونحن له مسلمون     am kntm $hda' aX HDr y`qwb almwt aX qal lbnyh mat`bdwn mn b`dy qalwa n`bdalhk walh abaYk abrahym wasma`yl wasHaq alha waHda wnHn lh mslmwn
 
134.  *     That was a people that hath passed away. They shall reap the fruit of what they did, and ye of what ye do! Of their merits there is no question in your case!     Such is a community from the past. They are responsible for what they earned, and you are responsible for what you earned. You are not answerable for anything they have done.     تلك امة قد خلت لها ماكسبت ولكم ماكسبتم ولاتسألون عما كانوا يعملون     tlk am+ qd Klt lha maksbt wlkm maksbtm wlatsAlwn `ma kanwa y`mlwn
 
135.  *     They say: "Become Jews or Christians if ye would be guided (To salvation)." Say thou: "Nay! (I would rather) the Religion of Abraham the True, and he joined not gods with Allah."     They said, "You have to be Jewish or Christian, to be guided." Say, "We follow the religion of Abraham - monotheism - he never was an idol worshiper."     وقالوا كونوا هودا او نصارى تهتدوا قل بل ملة ابراهيم حنيفا وماكان من المشركين     wqalwa kwnwa hwda aw nSari thtdwa ql bl ml+ abrahym Hnyfa wmakan mn alm$rkyn
 
136.  *     Say ye: "We believe in Allah, and the revelation given to us, and to Abraham, Isma'il, Isaac, Jacob, and the Tribes, and that given to Moses and Jesus, and that given to (all) prophets from their Lord: We make no difference between one and another of them: And we bow to Allah (in Islam)."     Say, "We believe in GOD, and in what was sent down to us, and in what was sent down to Abraham, Ismail, Isaac, Jacob, and the Patriarchs; and in what was given to Moses and Jesus, and all the prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction among any of them. To Him alone we are submitters."     قولوا امنا بالله وماانزل الينا وماانزل الى ابراهيم واسماعيل واسحاق ويعقوب والاسباط ومااوتي موسى وعيسى ومااوتي النبيون من ربهم لانفرق بين احد منهم ونحن له مسلمون     qwlwa amna ballh wmaanzl alyna wmaanzl ali abrahym wasma`yl wasHaq wy`qwb walasbaT wmaawty mwsi w`ysi wmaawty alnbywn mn rbhm lanfrq byn aHd mnhm wnHn lh mslmwn
 
137.  *     So if they believe as ye believe, they are indeed on the right path; but if they turn back, it is they who are in schism; but Allah will suffice thee as against them, and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing.     If they believe as you do, then they are guided. But if they turn away, then they are in opposition. GOD will spare you their opposition; He is the Hearer, the Omniscient.     فان امنوا بمثل ماامنتم به فقد اهتدوا وان تولوا فانما هم في شقاق فسيكفيكهم الله وهو السميع العليم     fan amnwa bmxl maamntm bh fqd ahtdwa wan twlwa fanma hm fy $qaq fsykfykhm allh whw alsmy` al`lym
 
138.  *     (Our religion is) the Baptism of Allah. And who can baptize better than Allah. And it is He Whom we worship.     Such is GOD's system, and whose system is better than GOD's? "Him alone we worship."     صبغة الله ومن احسن من الله صبغة ونحن له عابدون     SbG+ allh wmn aHsn mn allh SbG+ wnHn lh `abdwn
 
139.  *     Say: Will ye dispute with us about Allah, seeing that He is our Lord and your Lord; that we are responsible for our doings and ye for yours; and that We are sincere (in our faith) in Him?     Say, "Do you argue with us about GOD, when He is our Lord and your Lord? We are responsible for our deeds, and you are responsible for your deeds. To Him alone we are devoted."     قل اتحاجوننا في الله وهو ربنا وربكم ولنا اعمالنا ولكم اعمالكم ونحن له مخلصون     ql atHajwnna fy allh whw rbna wrbkm wlna a`malna wlkm a`malkm wnHn lh mKlSwn
 
140.  *     Or do ye say that Abraham, Isma'il Isaac, Jacob and the Tribes were Jews or Christians? Say: Do ye know better than Allah. Ah! who is more unjust than those who conceal the testimony they have from Allah. but Allah is not unmindful of what ye do!     Do you say that Abraham, Ismail, Isaac, Jacob, and the Patriarchs were Jewish or Christian? Say, "Do you know better than GOD? Who is more evil than one who conceals a testimony he has learned from GOD? GOD is never unaware of anything you do."     ام تقولون ان ابراهيم واسماعيل واسحاق ويعقوب والاسباط كانوا هودا او نصارى قل ءانتم اعلم ام الله ومن اظلم ممن كتم شهادة عنده من الله وماالله بغافل عما تعملون     am tqwlwn an abrahym wasma`yl wasHaq wy`qwb walasbaT kanwa hwda aw nSari ql 'antm a`lm am allh wmn aZlm mmn ktm $had+ `ndh mn allh wmaallh bGafl `ma t`mlwn
 
141.  *     That was a people that hath passed away. They shall reap the fruit of what they did, and ye of what ye do! Of their merits there is no question in your case:     That was a community from the past. They are responsible for what they earned, and you are responsible for what you earned. You are not answerable for anything they did.     تلك امة قد خلت لها ماكسبت ولكم ماكسبتم ولاتسألون عما كانوا يعملون     tlk am+ qd Klt lha maksbt wlkm maksbtm wlatsAlwn `ma kanwa y`mlwn
 
142.  *     The fools among the people will say: "What hath turned them from the Qibla to which they were used?" Say: To Allah belong both east and West: He guideth whom He will to a Way that is straight.     The fools among the people would say, "Why did they change the direction of their Qiblah?" Say, "To GOD belongs the east and the west; He guides whoever wills in a straight path."     سيقول السفهاء من الناس ماولاهم عن قبلتهم التي كانوا عليها قل لله المشرق والمغرب يهدي من يشاء الى صراط مستقيم     syqwl alsfha' mn alnas mawlahm `n qblthm alty kanwa `lyha ql llh alm$rq walmGrb yhdy mn y$a' ali SraT mstqym
 
143.  *     Thus, have We made of you an Ummat justly balanced, that ye might be witnesses over the nations, and the Messenger a witness over yourselves; and We appointed the Qibla to which thou wast used, only to test those who followed the Messenger from those who would turn on their heels (From the Faith). Indeed it was (A change) momentous, except to those guided by Allah. And never would Allah Make your faith of no effect. For Allah is to all people Most surely full of kindness, Most Merciful.     We thus made you an impartial community, that you may serve as witnesses among the people, and the messenger serves as a witness among you. We changed the direction of your original Qiblah only to distinguish those among you who readily follow the messenger from those who would turn back on their heels. It was a difficult test, but not for those who are guided by GOD. GOD never puts your worship to waste. GOD is Compassionate towards the people, Most Merciful.     وكذلك جعلناكم امة وسطا لتكونوا شهداء على الناس ويكون الرسول عليكم شهيدا وماجعلنا القبلة التي كنت عليهاالا لنعلم من يتبع الرسول ممن ينقلب على عقبيه وان كانت لكبيرة الا على الذين هدى الله وماكان الله ليضيع ايمانكم ان الله بالناس لرؤوف رحيم     wkXlk j`lnakm am+ wsTa ltkwnwa $hda' `li alnas wykwn alrswl `lykm $hyda wmaj`lna alqbl+ alty knt `lyhaala ln`lm mn ytb` alrswl mmn ynqlb `li `qbyh wan kant lkbyr+ ala `li alXyn hdi allh wmakan allh lyDy` aymankm an allh balnas lrWwf rHym
 
144.  *     We see the turning of thy face (for guidance to the heavens: now Shall We turn thee to a Qibla that shall please thee. Turn then Thy face in the direction of the sacred Mosque: Wherever ye are, turn your faces in that direction. The people of the Book know well that that is the truth from their Lord. Nor is Allah unmindful of what they do.     We have seen you turning your face about the sky (searching for the right direction). We now assign a Qiblah that is pleasing to you. Henceforth, you shall turn your face towards the Sacred Masjid. Wherever you may be, all of you shall turn your faces towards it. Those who received the previous scripture know that this is the truth from their Lord. GOD is never unaware of anything they do.     قد نرى تقلب وجهك في السماء فلنولينك قبلة ترضاها فول وجهك شطر المسجد الحرام وحيث ماكنتم فولوا وجوهكم شطره وان الذين اوتوا الكتاب ليعلمون انه الحق من ربهم وماالله بغافل عما يعملون     qd nri tqlb wjhk fy alsma' flnwlynk qbl+ trDaha fwl wjhk $Tr almsjd alHram wHyx makntm fwlwa wjwhkm $Trh wan alXyn awtwa alktab ly`lmwn anh alHq mn rbhm wmaallh bGafl `ma y`mlwn
 
145.  *     Even if thou wert to bring to the people of the Book all the Signs (together), they would not follow Thy Qibla; nor art thou going to follow their Qibla; nor indeed will they follow each other's Qibla. If thou after the knowledge hath reached thee, Wert to follow their (vain) desires,--then wert thou Indeed (clearly) in the wrong.     Even if you show the followers of the scripture every kind of miracle, they will not follow your Qiblah. Nor shall you follow their Qiblah. They do not even follow each others' Qiblah. If you acquiesce to their wishes, after the knowledge that has come to you, you will belong with the transgressors.     ولئن اتيت الذين اوتوا الكتاب بكل اية ماتبعوا قبلتك وماانت بتابع قبلتهم ومابعضهم بتابع قبلة بعض ولئن اتبعت اهواءهم من بعد ماجاءك من العلم انك اذا لمن الظالمين     wlYn atyt alXyn awtwa alktab bkl ay+ matb`wa qbltk wmaant btab` qblthm wmab`Dhm btab` qbl+ b`D wlYn atb`t ahwa'hm mn b`d maja'k mn al`lm ank aXa lmn alZalmyn
 
146.  *     The people of the Book know this as they know their own sons; but some of them conceal the truth which they themselves know.     Those who received the scripture recognize the truth herein, as they recognize their own children. Yet, some of them conceal the truth, knowingly.     الذين اتيناهم الكتاب يعرفونه كما يعرفون ابناءهم وان فريقا منهم ليكتمون الحق وهم يعلمون     alXyn atynahm alktab y`rfwnh kma y`rfwn abna'hm wan fryqa mnhm lyktmwn alHq whm y`lmwn
 
147.  *     The Truth is from thy Lord; so be not at all in doubt.     This is the truth from your Lord; do not harbor any doubt.     الحق من ربك فلا تكونن من الممترين     alHq mn rbk fla tkwnn mn almmtryn
 
148.  *     To each is a goal to which Allah turns him; then strive together (as in a race) Towards all that is good. Wheresoever ye are, Allah will bring you Together. For Allah Hath power over all things.     Each of you chooses the direction to follow; you shall race towards righteousness. Wherever you may be, GOD will summon you all. GOD is Omnipotent.     ولكل وجهة هو موليها فاستبقوا الخيرات اين ماتكونوا يات بكم الله جميعا ان الله على كل شئ قدير     wlkl wjh+ hw mwlyha fastbqwa alKyrat ayn matkwnwa yat bkm allh jmy`a an allh `li kl $Y qdyr
 
149.  *     From whencesoever Thou startest forth, turn Thy face in the direction of the sacred Mosque; that is indeed the truth from the Lord. And Allah is not unmindful of what ye do.     Wherever you go, you shall turn your face (during Salat) towards the Sacred Masjid. This is the truth from your Lord. GOD is never unaware of anything you all do.     ومن حيث خرجت فول وجهك شطر المسجد الحرام وانه للحق من ربك وماالله بغافل عما تعملون     wmn Hyx Krjt fwl wjhk $Tr almsjd alHram wanh llHq mn rbk wmaallh bGafl `ma t`mlwn
 
150.  *     So from whencesoever Thou startest forth, turn Thy face in the direction of the sacred Mosque; and wheresoever ye are, Turn your face thither: that there be no ground of dispute against you among the people, except those of them that are bent on wickedness; so fear them not, but fear Me; and that I may complete My favours on you, and ye May (consent to) be guided;     Wherever you go, you shall turn your face (during Salat) towards the Sacred Masjid; wherever you might be, you shall turn your faces (during Salat) towards it. Thus, the people will have no argument against you, except the transgressors among them. Do not fear them, and fear Me instead. I will then perfect My blessings upon you, that you may be guided.     ومن حيث خرجت فول وجهك شطر المسجد الحرام وحيث ماكنتم فولوا وجوهكم شطره لئلا يكون للناس عليكم حجة الا الذين ظلموا منهم فلا تخشوهم واخشوني ولاتم نعمتي عليكم ولعلكم تهتدون     wmn Hyx Krjt fwl wjhk $Tr almsjd alHram wHyx makntm fwlwa wjwhkm $Trh lYla ykwn llnas `lykm Hj+ ala alXyn Zlmwa mnhm fla tK$whm waK$wny wlatm n`mty `lykm wl`lkm thtdwn
 
151.  *     A similar (favour have ye already received) in that We have sent among you an Messenger of your own, rehearsing to you Our Signs, and sanctifying you, and instructing you in Scripture and Wisdom, and in new knowledge.     (Blessings) such as the sending of a messenger from among you to recite our revelations to you, purify you, teach you the scripture and wisdom, and to teach you what you never knew.     كما ارسلنا فيكم رسولا منكم يتلو عليكم اياتنا ويزكيكم ويعلمكم الكتاب والحكمة ويعلمكم مالم تكونوا تعلمون     kma arslna fykm rswla mnkm ytlw `lykm ayatna wyzkykm wy`lmkm alktab walHkm+ wy`lmkm malm tkwnwa t`lmwn
 
152.  *     Then do ye remember Me; I will remember you. Be grateful to Me, and reject not Faith.     You shall remember Me, that I may remember you, and be thankful to Me; do not be unappreciative.     فاذكروني اذكركم واشكروا لي ولاتكفرون     faXkrwny aXkrkm wa$krwa ly wlatkfrwn
 
153.  *     O ye who believe! seek help with patient perseverance and prayer; for Allah is with those who patiently persevere.     O you who believe, seek help through steadfastness and the Contact Prayers (Salat). GOD is with those who steadfastly persevere.     ياايها الذين امنوا استعينوا بالصبر والصلاة ان الله مع الصابرين     yaayha alXyn amnwa ast`ynwa balSbr walSla+ an allh m` alSabryn
 
154.  *     And say not of those who are slain in the way of Allah. "They are dead." Nay, they are living, though ye perceive (it) not.     Do not say of those who are killed in the cause of GOD, "They are dead." They are alive at their Lord, but you do not perceive.     ولاتقولوا لمن يقتل في سبيل الله اموات بل احياء ولكن لاتشعرون     wlatqwlwa lmn yqtl fy sbyl allh amwat bl aHya' wlkn lat$`rwn
 
155.  *     Be sure we shall test you with something of fear and hunger, some loss in goods or lives or the fruits (of your toil), but give glad tidings to those who patiently persevere,     We will surely test you through some fear, hunger, and loss of money, lives, and crops. Give good news to the steadfast.     ولنبلونكم بشئ من الخوف والجوع ونقص من الاموال والانفس والثمرات وبشرالصابرين     wlnblwnkm b$Y mn alKwf waljw` wnqS mn alamwal walanfs walxmrat wb$ralSabryn
 
156.  *     Who say, when afflicted with calamity: "To Allah We belong, and to Him is our return":-     When an affliction befalls them, they say, "We belong to GOD, and to Him we are returning."     الذين اذا اصابتهم مصيبة قالوا انا لله وانا اليه راجعون     alXyn aXa aSabthm mSyb+ qalwa ana llh wana alyh raj`wn
 
157.  *     They are those on whom (Descend) blessings from Allah, and Mercy, and they are the ones that receive guidance.     These have deserved blessings from their Lord and mercy. These are the guided ones.     اولئك عليهم صلوات من ربهم ورحمة واولئك هم المهتدون     awlYk `lyhm Slwat mn rbhm wrHm+ wawlYk hm almhtdwn
 
158.  *     Behold! Safa and Marwa are among the Symbols of Allah. So if those who visit the House in the Season or at other times, should compass them round, it is no sin in them. And if any one obeyeth his own impulse to good,--be sure that Allah is He Who recogniseth and knoweth.     The knolls of Safa and Marwah are among the rites decreed by GOD. Anyone who observes Hajj or `Umrah commits no error by traversing the distance between them. If one volunteers more righteous works, then GOD is Appreciative, Omniscient.     ان الصفا والمروة من شعائر الله فمن حج البيت او اعتمر فلا جناح عليه ان يطوف بهما ومن تطوع خيرا فان الله شاكر عليم     an alSfa walmrw+ mn $`aYr allh fmn Hj albyt aw a`tmr fla jnaH `lyh an yTwf bhma wmn tTw` Kyra fan allh $akr `lym
 
159.  *     Those who conceal the clear (Signs) We have sent down, and the Guidance, after We have made it clear for the people in the Book,--on them shall be Allah's curse, and the curse of those entitled to curse,--     Those who conceal our revelations and guidance, after proclaiming them for the people in the scripture, are condemned by GOD; they are condemned by all the condemners.     ان الذين يكتمون ماانزلنا من البينات والهدى من بعد مابيناه للناس في الكتاب اولئك يلعنهم الله ويلعنهم اللاعنون     an alXyn yktmwn maanzlna mn albynat walhdi mn b`d mabynah llnas fy alktab awlYk yl`nhm allh wyl`nhm alla`nwn
 
160.  *     Except those who repent and make amends and openly declare (the Truth): To them I turn; for I am Oft-returning, Most Merciful.     As for those who repent, reform, and proclaim, I redeem them. I am the Redeemer, Most Merciful.     الا الذين تابوا واصلحوا وبينوا فاولئك اتوب عليهم وانا التواب الرحيم     ala alXyn tabwa waSlHwa wbynwa fawlYk atwb `lyhm wana altwab alrHym
 
161.  *     Those who reject Faith, and die rejecting,--on them is Allah's curse, and the curse of angels, and of all mankind;     Those who disbelieve and die as disbelievers, have incurred the condemnation of GOD, the angels, and all the people (on the Day of Judgment).     ان الذين كفروا وماتوا وهم كفار اولئك عليهم لعنة الله والملائكة والناس اجمعين     an alXyn kfrwa wmatwa whm kfar awlYk `lyhm l`n+ allh walmlaYk+ walnas ajm`yn
 
162.  *     They will abide therein: Their penalty will not be lightened, nor will respite be their (lot).     Eternally they abide therein. The retribution is never commuted for them, nor are they reprieved.     خالدين فيها لايخفف عنهم العذاب ولاهم ينظرون     Kaldyn fyha layKff `nhm al`Xab wlahm ynZrwn
 
163.  *     And your Allah is One Allah. There is no god but He, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.     Your god is one god; there is no god but He, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.     والاهكم اله واحد لااله الا هو الرحمن الرحيم     walahkm alh waHd laalh ala hw alrHmn alrHym
 
164.  *     Behold! in the creation of the heavens and the earth; in the alternation of the night and the day; in the sailing of the ships through the ocean for the profit of mankind; in the rain which Allah Sends down from the skies, and the life which He gives therewith to an earth that is dead; in the beasts of all kinds that He scatters through the earth; in the change of the winds, and the clouds which they Trail like their slaves between the sky and the earth;--(Here) indeed are Signs for a people that are wise.     In the creation of the heavens and the earth, the alternation of night and day, the ships that roam the ocean for the benefit of the people, the water that GOD sends down from the sky to revive dead land and to spread in it all kinds of creatures, the manipulation of the winds, and the clouds that are placed between the sky and the earth, there are sufficient proofs for people who understand.     ان في خلق السماوات والارض واختلاف الليل والنهار والفلك التي تجري في البحر بما ينفع الناس وماانزل الله من السماء من ماء فاحيا به الارض بعد موتها وبث فيها من كل دابة وتصريف الرياح والسحاب المسخر بين السماء والارض لايات لقوم يعقلون     an fy Klq alsmawat walarD waKtlaf allyl walnhar walflk alty tjry fy albHr bma ynf` alnas wmaanzl allh mn alsma' mn ma' faHya bh alarD b`d mwtha wbx fyha mn kl dab+ wtSryf alryaH walsHab almsKr byn alsma' walarD layat lqwm y`qlwn
 
165.  *     Yet there are men who take (for worship) others besides Allah, as equal (with Allah.: They love them as they should love Allah. But those of Faith are overflowing in their love for Allah. If only the unrighteous could see, behold, they would see the penalty: that to Allah belongs all power, and Allah will strongly enforce the penalty.     Yet, some people set up idols to rival GOD, and love them as if they are GOD. Those who believe love GOD the most. If only the transgressors could see themselves when they see the retribution! They will realize then that all power belongs to GOD alone, and that GOD's retribution is awesome.     ومن الناس من يتخذ من دون الله اندادا يحبونهم كحب الله والذين امنوا اشد حبا لله ولو يرى الذين ظلموا اذ يرون العذاب ان القوة لله جميعا وان الله شديد العذاب     wmn alnas mn ytKX mn dwn allh andada yHbwnhm kHb allh walXyn amnwa a$d Hba llh wlw yri alXyn Zlmwa aX yrwn al`Xab an alqw+ llh jmy`a wan allh $dyd al`Xab
 
166.  *     Then would those who are followed clear themselves of those who follow (them) : They would see the penalty, and all relations between them would be cut off.     Those who were followed will disown those who followed them. They will see the retribution, and all ties among them will be severed.     اذ تبرا الذين اتبعوا من الذين اتبعوا وراوا العذاب وتقطعت بهم الاسباب     aX tbra alXyn atb`wa mn alXyn atb`wa wrawa al`Xab wtqT`t bhm alasbab
 
167.  *     And those who followed would say: "If only We had one more chance, We would clear ourselves of them, as they have cleared themselves of us." Thus will Allah show them (The fruits of) their deeds as (nothing but) regrets. Nor will there be a way for them out of the Fire.     Those who followed will say, "If we can get another chance, we will disown them, as they have disowned us now." GOD thus shows them the consequences of their works as nothing but remorse; they will never exit Hell.     وقال الذين اتبعوا لو ان لنا كرة فنتبرا منهم كما تبرؤوا منا كذلك يريهم الله اعمالهم حسرات عليهم وماهم بخارجين من النار     wqal alXyn atb`wa lw an lna kr+ fntbra mnhm kma tbrWwa mna kXlk yryhm allh a`malhm Hsrat `lyhm wmahm bKarjyn mn alnar
 
168.  *     O ye people! Eat of what is on earth, Lawful and good; and do not follow the footsteps of the evil one, for he is to you an avowed enemy.     O people, eat from the earth's products all that is lawful and good, and do not follow the steps of Satan; he is your most ardent enemy.     ياايها الناس كلوا مما في الارض حلالا طيبا ولاتتبعوا خطوات الشيطان انه لكم عدو مبين     yaayha alnas klwa mma fy alarD Hlala Tyba wlattb`wa KTwat al$yTan anh lkm `dw mbyn
 
169.  *     For he commands you what is evil and shameful, and that ye should say of Allah that of which ye have no knowledge.     He only commands you to commit evil and vice, and to say about GOD what you do not know.     انما يامركم بالسوء والفحشاء وان تقولوا على الله مالاتعلمون     anma yamrkm balsw' walfH$a' wan tqwlwa `li allh malat`lmwn
 
170.  *     When it is said to them: "Follow what Allah hath revealed:" They say: "Nay! we shall follow the ways of our fathers." What! even though their fathers Were void of wisdom and guidance?     When they are told, "Follow what GOD has revealed herein," they say, "We follow only what we found our parents doing." What if their parents did not understand, and were not guided?     واذا قيل لهم اتبعوا ماانزل الله قالوا بل نتبع ماالفينا عليه اباءنا اولو كان اباؤهم لايعقلون شيئا ولايهتدون     waXa qyl lhm atb`wa maanzl allh qalwa bl ntb` maalfyna `lyh aba'na awlw kan abaWhm lay`qlwn $yYa wlayhtdwn
 
171.  *     The parable of those who reject Faith is as if one were to shout Like a goat-herd, to things that listen to nothing but calls and cries: Deaf, dumb, and blind, they are void of wisdom.     The example of such disbelievers is that of parrots who repeat what they hear of sounds and calls, without understanding. Deaf, dumb, and blind; they cannot understand.     ومثل الذين كفروا كمثل الذي ينعق بما لايسمع الا دعاء ونداء صم بكم عمي فهم لايعقلون     wmxl alXyn kfrwa kmxl alXy yn`q bma laysm` ala d`a' wnda' Sm bkm `my fhm lay`qlwn
 
172.  *     O ye who believe! Eat of the good things that We have provided for you, and be grateful to Allah, if it is Him ye worship.     O you who believe, eat from the good things we provided for you, and be thankful to GOD, if you do worship Him alone.     ياايها الذين امنوا كلوا من طيبات مارزقناكم واشكروا لله ان كنتم اياه تعبدون     yaayha alXyn amnwa klwa mn Tybat marzqnakm wa$krwa llh an kntm ayah t`bdwn
 
173.  *     He hath only forbidden you dead meat, and blood, and the flesh of swine, and that on which any other name hath been invoked besides that of Allah. But if one is forced by necessity, without wilful disobedience, nor transgressing due limits,--then is he guiltless. For Allah is Oft-forgiving Most Merciful.     He only prohibits for you the eating of animals that die of themselves (without human interference), blood, the meat of pigs, and animals dedicated to other than GOD. If one is forced (to eat these), without being malicious or deliberate, he incurs no sin. GOD is Forgiver, Most Merciful.     انما حرم عليكم الميتة والدم ولحم الخنزير ومااهل به لغير الله فمن اضطر غير باغ ولاعاد فلا اثم عليه ان الله غفور رحيم     anma Hrm `lykm almyt+ waldm wlHm alKnzyr wmaahl bh lGyr allh fmn aDTr Gyr baG wla`ad fla axm `lyh an allh Gfwr rHym
 
174.  *     Those who conceal Allah's revelations in the Book, and purchase for them a miserable profit,--they swallow into themselves naught but Fire; Allah will not address them on the Day of Resurrection. Nor purify them: Grievous will be their penalty.     Those who conceal GOD's revelations in the scripture, in exchange for a cheap material gain, eat but fire into their bellies. GOD will not speak to them on the Day of Resurrection, nor will He purify them. They have incurred a painful retribution.     ان الذين يكتمون ماانزل الله من الكتاب ويشترون به ثمنا قليلا اولئك ماياكلون في بطونهم الا النار ولايكلمهم الله يوم القيامة ولايزكيهم ولهم عذاب اليم     an alXyn yktmwn maanzl allh mn alktab wy$trwn bh xmna qlyla awlYk mayaklwn fy bTwnhm ala alnar wlayklmhm allh ywm alqyam+ wlayzkyhm wlhm `Xab alym
 
175.  *     They are the ones who buy Error in place of Guidance and Torment in place of Forgiveness. Ah! what boldness (They show) for the Fire!     It is they who chose the straying instead of guidance, and the retribution instead of forgiveness. Consequently, they will have to endure Hell.     اولئك الذين اشتروا الضلالة بالهدى والعذاب بالمغفرة فما اصبرهم على النار     awlYk alXyn a$trwa alDlal+ balhdi wal`Xab balmGfr+ fma aSbrhm `li alnar
 
176.  *     (Their doom is) because Allah sent down the Book in truth but those who seek causes of dispute in the Book are in a schism Far (from the purpose).     This is because GOD has revealed this scripture, bearing the truth, and those who dispute the scripture are the most ardent opponents.     ذلك بان الله نزل الكتاب بالحق وان الذين اختلفوا في الكتاب لفي شقاق بعيد     Xlk ban allh nzl alktab balHq wan alXyn aKtlfwa fy alktab lfy $qaq b`yd
 
177.  *     It is not righteousness that ye turn your faces Towards east or West; but it is righteousness--to believe in Allah and the Last Day, and the Angels, and the Book, and the Messengers; to spend of your substance, out of love for Him, for your kin, for orphans, for the needy, for the wayfarer, for those who ask, and for the ransom of slaves; to be steadfast in prayer, and practice regular charity; to fulfil the contracts which ye have made; and to be firm and patient, in pain (or suffering) and adversity, and throughout all periods of panic. Such are the people of truth, the Allah.fearing.     Righteousness is not turning your faces towards the east or the west. Righteous are those who believe in GOD, the Last Day, the angels, the scripture, and the prophets; and they give the money, cheerfully, to the relatives, the orphans, the needy, the traveling alien, the beggars, and to free the slaves; and they observe the Contact Prayers (Salat) and give the obligatory charity (Zakat); and they keep their word whenever they make a promise; and they steadfastly persevere in the face of persecution, hardship, and war. These are the truthful;     ليس البر ان تولوا وجوهكم قبل المشرق والمغرب ولكن البر من امن بالله واليوم الاخر والملائكة والكتاب والنبيين واتى المال على حبه ذوى القربى واليتامى والمساكين وابن السبيل والسائلين وفي الرقاب واقام الصلاة واتى الزكاة والموفون بعهدهم اذا عاهدوا والصابرين في الباساء والضراء وحين الباس اولئك الذين صدقوا واولئك هم المتقون     lys albr an twlwa wjwhkm qbl alm$rq walmGrb wlkn albr mn amn ballh walywm alaKr walmlaYk+ walktab walnbyyn wati almal `li Hbh Xwi alqrbi walytami walmsakyn wabn alsbyl walsaYlyn wfy alrqab waqam alSla+ wati alzka+ walmwfwn b`hdhm aXa `ahdwa walSabryn fy albasa' walDra' wHyn albas awlYk alXyn Sdqwa wawlYk hm almtqwn
 
178.  *     O ye who believe! the law of equality is prescribed to you in cases of murder: the free for the free, the slave for the slave, the woman for the woman. But if any remission is made by the brother of the slain, then grant any reasonable demand, and compensate him with handsome gratitude, this is a concession and a Mercy from your Lord. After this whoever exceeds the limits shall be in grave penalty.     O you who believe, equivalence is the law decreed for you when dealing with murder - the free for the free, the slave for the slave, the female for the female. If one is pardoned by the victim's kin, an appreciative response is in order, and an equitable compensation shall be paid. This is an alleviation from your Lord and mercy. Anyone who transgresses beyond this incurs a painful retribution.     ياايها الذين امنوا كتب عليكم القصاص في القتلى الحر بالحر والعبد بالعبد والانثى بالانثى فمن عفى له من اخيه شئ فاتباع بالمعروف واداء اليه باحسان ذلك تخفيف من ربكم ورحمة فمن اعتدى بعد ذلك فله عذاب اليم     yaayha alXyn amnwa ktb `lykm alqSaS fy alqtli alHr balHr wal`bd bal`bd walanxi balanxi fmn `fi lh mn aKyh $Y fatba` balm`rwf wada' alyh baHsan Xlk tKfyf mn rbkm wrHm+ fmn a`tdi b`d Xlk flh `Xab alym
 
179.  *     In the Law of Equality there is (saving of) Life to you, o ye men of understanding; that ye may restrain yourselves.     Equivalence is a life saving law for you, O you who possess intelligence, that you may be righteous.     ولكم في القصاص حياة ياولى الالباب لعلكم تتقون     wlkm fy alqSaS Hya+ yawli alalbab l`lkm ttqwn
 
180.  *     It is prescribed, when death approaches any of you, if he leave any goods that he make a bequest to parents and next of kin, according to reasonable usage; this is due from the Allah.fearing.     It is decreed that when death approaches, you shall write a will for the benefit of the parents and relatives, equitably. This is a duty upon the righteous.     كتب عليكم اذا حضر احدكم الموت ان ترك خيرا الوصية للوالدين والاقربين بالمعروف حقا علىالمتقين     ktb `lykm aXa HDr aHdkm almwt an trk Kyra alwSy+ llwaldyn walaqrbyn balm`rwf Hqa `lialmtqyn
 
181.  *     If anyone changes the bequest after hearing it, the guilt shall be on those who make the change. For Allah hears and knows (All things).     If anyone alters a will he had heard, the sin of altering befalls those responsible for such altering. GOD is Hearer, Knower.     فمن بدله بعد ماسمعه فانما اثمه على الذين يبدلونه ان الله سميع عليم     fmn bdlh b`d masm`h fanma axmh `li alXyn ybdlwnh an allh smy` `lym
 
182.  *     But if anyone fears partiality or wrong-doing on the part of the testator, and makes peace between (The parties concerned), there is no wrong in him: For Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.     If one sees gross injustice or bias on the part of a testator, and takes corrective action to restore justice to the will, he commits no sin. GOD is Forgiver, Most Merciful.     فمن خاف من موص جنفا او اثما فاصلح بينهم فلا اثم عليه ان الله غفور رحيم     fmn Kaf mn mwS jnfa aw axma faSlH bynhm fla axm `lyh an allh Gfwr rHym
 
183.  *     O ye who believe! Fasting is prescribed to you as it was prescribed to those before you, that ye may (learn) self-restraint,--     O you who believe, fasting is decreed for you, as it was decreed for those before you, that you may attain salvation.     ياايها الذين امنوا كتب عليكم الصيام كما كتب على الذين من قبلكم لعلكم تتقون     yaayha alXyn amnwa ktb `lykm alSyam kma ktb `li alXyn mn qblkm l`lkm ttqwn
 
184.  *     (Fasting) for a fixed number of days; but if any of you is ill, or on a journey, the prescribed number (Should be made up) from days later. For those who can do it (With hardship), is a ransom, the feeding of one that is indigent. But he that will give more, of his own free will,--it is better for him. And it is better for you that ye fast, if ye only knew.     Specific days (are designated for fasting); if one is ill or traveling, an equal number of other days may be substituted. Those who can fast, but with great difficulty, may substitute feeding one poor person for each day of breaking the fast. If one volunteers (more righteous works), it is better. But fasting is the best for you, if you only knew.     اياما معدودات فمن كان منكم مريضا او على سفر فعدة من ايام اخر وعلى الذين يطيقونه فدية طعام مسكين فمن تطوع خيرا فهو خير له وان تصوموا خير لكم ان كنتم تعلمون     ayama m`dwdat fmn kan mnkm mryDa aw `li sfr f`d+ mn ayam aKr w`li alXyn yTyqwnh fdy+ T`am mskyn fmn tTw` Kyra fhw Kyr lh wan tSwmwa Kyr lkm an kntm t`lmwn
 
185.  *     Ramadhan is the (month) in which was sent down the Qur'an, as a guide to mankind, also clear (Signs) for guidance and judgment (Between right and wrong). So every one of you who is present (at his home) during that month should spend it in fasting, but if any one is ill, or on a journey, the prescribed period (Should be made up) by days later. Allah intends every facility for you; He does not want to put to difficulties. (He wants you) to complete the prescribed period, and to glorify Him in that He has guided you; and perchance ye shall be grateful.     Ramadan is the month during which the Quran was revealed, providing guidance for the people, clear teachings, and the statute book. Those of you who witness this month shall fast therein. Those who are ill or traveling may substitute the same number of other days. GOD wishes for you convenience, not hardship, that you may fulfill your obligations, and to glorify GOD for guiding you, and to express your appreciation.     شهر رمضان الذي انزل فيه القران هدى للناس وبينات من الهدى والفرقان فمن شهد منكم الشهر فليصمه ومن كان منكم مريضا او على سفر فعدة من ايام اخر يريد الله بكم اليسر ولايريد بكم العسر ولتكملوا العدة ولتكبروا الله على ماهداكم ولعلكم تشكرون     $hr rmDan alXy anzl fyh alqran hdi llnas wbynat mn alhdi walfrqan fmn $hd mnkm al$hr flySmh wmn kan mnkm mryDa aw `li sfr f`d+ mn ayam aKr yryd allh bkm alysr wlayryd bkm al`sr wltkmlwa al`d+ wltkbrwa allh `li mahdakm wl`lkm t$krwn
 
186.  *     When My servants ask thee concerning Me, I am indeed close (to them): I listen to the prayer of every suppliant when he calleth on Me: Let them also, with a will, Listen to My call, and believe in Me: That they may walk in the right way.     When My servants ask you about Me, I am always near. I answer their prayers when they pray to Me. The people shall respond to Me and believe in Me, in order to be guided.     واذا سالك عبادي عني فاني قريب اجيب دعوة الداع اذا دعان فليستجيبوا لي وليؤمنوا بي لعلهم يرشدون     waXa salk `bady `ny fany qryb ajyb d`w+ alda` aXa d`an flystjybwa ly wlyWmnwa by l`lhm yr$dwn
 
187.  *     Permitted to you, on the night of the fasts, is the approach to your wives. They are your garments and ye are their garments. Allah knoweth what ye used to do secretly among yourselves; but He turned to you and forgave you; so now associate with them, and seek what Allah Hath ordained for you, and eat and drink, until the white thread of dawn appear to you distinct from its black thread; then complete your fast Till the night appears; but do not associate with your wives while ye are in retreat in the mosques. Those are Limits (set by) Allah. Approach not nigh thereto. Thus doth Allah make clear His Signs to men: that they may learn self-restraint.     Permitted for you is sexual intercourse with your wives during the nights of fasting. They are the keepers of your secrets, and you are the keepers of their secrets. GOD knew that you used to betray your souls, and He has redeemed you, and has pardoned you. Henceforth, you may have intercourse with them, seeking what GOD has permitted for you. You may eat and drink until the white thread of light becomes distinguishable from the dark thread of night at dawn. Then, you shall fast until sunset. Sexual intercourse is prohibited if you decide to retreat to the masjid (during the last ten days of Ramadan). These are GOD's laws; you shall not transgress them. GOD thus clarifies His revelations for the people, that they may attain salvation.     احل لكم ليلة الصيام الرفث الى نسائكم هن لباس لكم وانتم لباس لهن علم الله انكم كنتم تختانون انفسكم فتاب عليكم وعفا عنكم فالان باشروهن وابتغوا ماكتب الله لكم وكلوا واشربوا حتي يتبين لكم الخيط الابيض من الخيط الاسود من الفجر ثم اتموا الصيام الى الليل ولاتباشروهن وانتم عاكفون في المساجد تلك حدود الله فلا تقربوهاكذلك يبين الله اياته للناس لعلهم يتقون     aHl lkm lyl+ alSyam alrfx ali nsaYkm hn lbas lkm wantm lbas lhn `lm allh ankm kntm tKtanwn anfskm ftab `lykm w`fa `nkm falan ba$rwhn wabtGwa maktb allh lkm wklwa wa$rbwa Hty ytbyn lkm alKyT alabyD mn alKyT alaswd mn alfjr xm atmwa alSyam ali allyl wlatba$rwhn wantm `akfwn fy almsajd tlk Hdwd allh fla tqrbwhakXlk ybyn allh ayath llnas l`lhm ytqwn
 
188.  *     And do not eat up your property among yourselves for vanities, nor use it as bait for the judges, with intent that ye may eat up wrongfully and knowingly a little of (other) people's property.     You shall not take each others' money illicitly, nor shall you bribe the officials to deprive others of some of their rights illicitly, while you know.     ولاتاكلوا اموالكم بينكم بالباطل وتدلوا بها الى الحكام لتاكلوا فريقا من اموال الناس بالاثم وانتم تعلمون     wlataklwa amwalkm bynkm balbaTl wtdlwa bha ali alHkam ltaklwa fryqa mn amwal alnas balaxm wantm t`lmwn
 
189.  *     They ask thee concerning the New Moons. Say: They are but signs to mark fixed periods of time in (the affairs of) men, and for Pilgrimage. It is no virtue if ye enter your houses from the back: It is virtue if ye fear Allah. Enter houses through the proper doors: And fear Allah. That ye may prosper.     They ask you about the phases of the moon! Say, "They provide a timing device for the people, and determine the time of Hajj." It is not righteous to beat around the bush; righteousness is attained by upholding the commandments and by being straightforward. You shall observe GOD, that you may succeed.     يسألونك عن الاهلة قل هي مواقيت للناس والحج وليس البر بان تاتوا البيوت من ظهورها ولكن البر من اتقى واتوا البيوت من ابوابها واتقوا الله لعلكم تفلحون     ysAlwnk `n alahl+ ql hy mwaqyt llnas walHj wlys albr ban tatwa albywt mn Zhwrha wlkn albr mn atqi watwa albywt mn abwabha watqwa allh l`lkm tflHwn
 
190.  *     Fight in the cause of Allah those who fight you, but do not transgress limits; for Allah loveth not transgressors.     You may fight in the cause of GOD against those who attack you, but do not aggress. GOD does not love the aggressors.     وقاتلوا في سبيل الله الذين يقاتلونكم ولاتعتدوا ان الله لايحب المعتدين     wqatlwa fy sbyl allh alXyn yqatlwnkm wlat`tdwa an allh layHb alm`tdyn
 
191.  *     And slay them wherever ye catch them, and turn them out from where they have Turned you out; for tumult and oppression are worse than slaughter; but fight them not at the Sacred Mosque, unless they (first) fight you there; but if they fight you, slay them. Such is the reward of those who suppress faith.     You may kill those who wage war against you, and you may evict them whence they evicted you. Oppression is worse than murder. Do not fight them at the Sacred Masjid, unless they attack you therein. If they attack you, you may kill them. This is the just retribution for those disbelievers.     واقتلوهم حيث ثقفتموهم واخرجوهم من حيث اخرجوكم والفتنة اشد من القتل ولاتقاتلوهم عند المسجد الحرام حتي يقاتلوكم فيه فان قاتلوكم فاقتلوهم كذلك جزاء الكافرين     waqtlwhm Hyx xqftmwhm waKrjwhm mn Hyx aKrjwkm walftn+ a$d mn alqtl wlatqatlwhm `nd almsjd alHram Hty yqatlwkm fyh fan qatlwkm faqtlwhm kXlk jza' alkafryn
 
192.  *     But if they cease, Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.     If they refrain, then GOD is Forgiver, Most Merciful.     فان انتهوا فان الله غفور رحيم     fan anthwa fan allh Gfwr rHym
 
193.  *     And fight them on until there is no more Tumult or oppression, and there prevail justice and faith in Allah. but if they cease, Let there be no hostility except to those who practise oppression.     You may also fight them to eliminate oppression, and to worship GOD freely. If they refrain, you shall not aggress; aggression is permitted only against the aggressors.     وقاتلوهم حتى لاتكون فتنة ويكون الدين لله فان انتهوا فلاعدوان الا على الظالمين     wqatlwhm Hti latkwn ftn+ wykwn aldyn llh fan anthwa fla`dwan ala `li alZalmyn
 
194.  *     The prohibited month for the prohibited month,--and so for all things prohibited,--there is the law of equality. If then any one transgresses the prohibition against you, Transgress ye likewise against him. But fear Allah, and know that Allah is with those who restrain themselves.     During the Sacred Months, aggression may be met by an equivalent response. If they attack you, you may retaliate by inflicting an equitable retribution. You shall observe GOD and know that GOD is with the righteous.     الشهر الحرام بالشهر الحرام والحرمات قصاص فمن اعتدى عليكم فاعتدوا عليه بمثل مااعتدى عليكم واتقوا الله واعلموا ان الله مع المتقين     al$hr alHram bal$hr alHram walHrmat qSaS fmn a`tdi `lykm fa`tdwa `lyh bmxl maa`tdi `lykm watqwa allh wa`lmwa an allh m` almtqyn
 
195.  *     And spend of your substance in the cause of Allah, and make not your own hands contribute to (your) destruction; but do good; for Allah loveth those who do good.     You shall spend in the cause of GOD; do not throw yourselves with your own hands into destruction. You shall be charitable; GOD loves the charitable.     وانفقوا في سبيل الله ولاتلقوا بايديكم الى التهلكة واحسنوا ان الله يحب المحسنين     wanfqwa fy sbyl allh wlatlqwa baydykm ali althlk+ waHsnwa an allh yHb almHsnyn
 
196.  *     And complete the Hajj or 'umra in the service of Allah. But if ye are prevented (From completing it), send an offering for sacrifice, such as ye may find, and do not shave your heads until the offering reaches the place of sacrifice. And if any of you is ill, or has an ailment in his scalp, (Necessitating shaving), (He should) in compensation either fast, or feed the poor, or offer sacrifice; and when ye are in peaceful conditions (again), if any one wishes to continue the 'umra on to the hajj, He must make an offering, such as he can afford, but if he cannot afford it, He should fast three days during the hajj and seven days on his return, Making ten days in all. This is for those whose household is not in (the precincts of) the Sacred Mosque. And fear Allah, and know that Allah Is strict in punishment.     You shall observe the complete rites of Hajj and`Umrah for GOD. If you are prevented, you shall send an offering, and do not resume cutting your hair until your offering has reached its destination. If you are ill, or suffering a head injury (and you must cut your hair), you shall expiate by fasting, or giving to charity, or some other form of worship. During the normal Hajj, if you break the state of Ihraam (sanctity) between `Umrah and Hajj, you shall expiate by offering an animal sacrifice. If you cannot afford it, you shall fast three days during Hajj and seven when you return home - this completes ten - provided you do not live at the Sacred Masjid. You shall observe GOD, and know that GOD is strict in enforcing retribution.     واتموا الحج والعمرة لله فان احصرتم فما استيسر من الهدي ولاتحلقوا رؤوسكم حتى يبلغ الهدى محله فمن كان منكم مريضا او به اذى من راسه ففدية من صيام او صدقة او نسك فاذا امنتم فمن تمتع بالعمرة الى الحج فما استيسر من الهدي فمن لم يجد فصيام ثلاثة ايام في الحج وسبعة اذا رجعتم تلك عشرة كاملة ذلك لمن لم يكن اهله حاضري المسجد الحرام واتقوا الله واعلموا ان الله شديد العقاب     watmwa alHj wal`mr+ llh fan aHSrtm fma astysr mn alhdy wlatHlqwa rWwskm Hti yblG alhdi mHlh fmn kan mnkm mryDa aw bh aXi mn rash ffdy+ mn Syam aw Sdq+ aw nsk faXa amntm fmn tmt` bal`mr+ ali alHj fma astysr mn alhdy fmn lm yjd fSyam xlax+ ayam fy alHj wsb`+ aXa rj`tm tlk `$r+ kaml+ Xlk lmn lm ykn ahlh HaDry almsjd alHram watqwa allh wa`lmwa an allh $dyd al`qab
 
197.  *     For Hajj are the months well known. If any one undertakes that duty therein, Let there be no obscenity, nor wickedness, nor wrangling in the Hajj. And whatever good ye do, (be sure) Allah knoweth it. And take a provision (With you) for the journey, but the best of provisions is right conduct. So fear Me, o ye that are wise.     Hajj shall be observed in the specified months. Whoever sets out to observe Hajj shall refrain from sexual intercourse, misconduct, and arguments throughout Hajj. Whatever good you do, GOD is fully aware thereof. As you prepare your provisions for the journey, the best provision is righteousness. You shall observe Me, O you who possess intelligence.     الحج اشهر معلومات فمن فرض فيهن الحج فلا رفث ولا فسوف ولاجدال في الحج وماتفعلوا من خير يعلمه الله وتزودوا فان خير الزاد التقوى واتقون يااولي الالباب     alHj a$hr m`lwmat fmn frD fyhn alHj fla rfx wla fswf wlajdal fy alHj wmatf`lwa mn Kyr y`lmh allh wtzwdwa fan Kyr alzad altqwi watqwn yaawly alalbab
 
198.  *     It is no crime in you if ye seek of the bounty of your Lord (during pilgrimage). Then when ye pour down from (Mount) Arafat, celebrate the praises of Allah at the Sacred Monument, and celebrate His praises as He has directed you, even though, before this, ye went astray.     You commit no error by seeking provisions from your Lord (through commerce). When you file from `Arafaat, you shall commemorate GOD at the Sacred Location (of Muzdalifah). You shall commemorate Him for guiding you; before this, you had gone astray.     ليس عليكم جناح ان تبتغوا فضلا من ربكم فاذا افضتم من عرفات فاذكروا الله عند المشعر الحرام واذكروه كما هداكم وان كنتم من قبله لمن الضالين     lys `lykm jnaH an tbtGwa fDla mn rbkm faXa afDtm mn `rfat faXkrwa allh `nd alm$`r alHram waXkrwh kma hdakm wan kntm mn qblh lmn alDalyn
 
199.  *     Then pass on at a quick pace from the place whence it is usual for the multitude so to do, and ask for Allah's forgiveness. For Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.     You shall file together, with the rest of the people who file, and ask GOD for forgiveness. GOD is Forgiver, Most Merciful.     ثم افيضوا من حيث افاض الناس واستغفروا الله ان الله غفور رحيم     xm afyDwa mn Hyx afaD alnas wastGfrwa allh an allh Gfwr rHym
 
200.  *     So when ye have accomplished your holy rites, celebrate the praises of Allah, as ye used to celebrate the praises of your fathers,--yea, with far more Heart and soul. There are men who say: "Our Lord! Give us (Thy bounties) in this world!" but they will have no portion in the Hereafter.     Once you complete your rites, you shall continue to commemorate GOD as you commemorate your own parents, or even better. Some people would say, "Our Lord, give us of this world," while having no share in the Hereafter.     فاذا قضيتم مناسككم فاذكروا الله كذكركم اباءكم او اشد ذكرا فمن الناس من يقول ربنا اتنا في الدنيا وماله في الاخرة من خلاق     faXa qDytm mnaskkm faXkrwa allh kXkrkm aba'km aw a$d Xkra fmn alnas mn yqwl rbna atna fy aldnya wmalh fy alaKr+ mn Klaq
 
201.  *     And there are men who say: "Our Lord! Give us good in this world and good in the Hereafter, and defend us from the torment of the Fire!"     Others would say, "Our Lord, grant us righteousness in this world, and righteousness in the Hereafter, and spare us the retribution of Hell."     ومنهم من يقول ربنا اتنا في الدنيا حسنة وفي الاخرة حسنة وقنا عذاب النار     wmnhm mn yqwl rbna atna fy aldnya Hsn+ wfy alaKr+ Hsn+ wqna `Xab alnar
 
202.  *     To these will be allotted what they have earned; and Allah is quick in account.     Each of these will receive the share they have earned. GOD is most efficient in reckoning.     اولئك لهم نصيب مما كسبوا والله سريع الحساب     awlYk lhm nSyb mma ksbwa wallh sry` alHsab
 
203.  *     Celebrate the praises of Allah during the Appointed Days. But if any one hastens to leave in two days, there is no blame on him, and if any one stays on, there is no blame on him, if his aim is to do right. Then fear Allah, and know that ye will surely be gathered unto Him.     You shall commemorate GOD for a number of days (in Mena); whoever hastens to do this in two days commits no sin, and whoever stays longer commits no sin, so long as righteousness is maintained. You shall observe GOD, and know that before Him you will be gathered.     واذكروا الله في ايام معدودات فمن تعجل في يومين فلا اثم عليه ومن تاخر فلا اثم عليه لمن اتقى واتقوا الله واعلموا انكم اليه تحشرون     waXkrwa allh fy ayam m`dwdat fmn t`jl fy ywmyn fla axm `lyh wmn taKr fla axm `lyh lmn atqi watqwa allh wa`lmwa ankm alyh tH$rwn
 
204.  *     There is the type of man whose speech about this world's life May dazzle thee, and he calls Allah to witness about what is in his heart; yet is he the most contentious of enemies.     Among the people, one may impress you with his utterances concerning this life, and may even call upon GOD to witness his innermost thoughts, while he is a most ardent opponent.     ومن الناس من يعجبك قوله في الحياة الدنيا ويشهد الله على مافي قلبه وهو الد الخصام     wmn alnas mn y`jbk qwlh fy alHya+ aldnya wy$hd allh `li mafy qlbh whw ald alKSam
 
205.  *     When he turns his back, His aim everywhere is to spread mischief through the earth and destroy crops and cattle. But Allah loveth not mischief.     As soon as he leaves, he roams the earth corruptingly, destroying properties and lives. GOD does not love corruption.     واذا تولى سعى في الارض ليفسد فيها ويهلك الحرث والنسل والله لايحب الفساد     waXa twli s`i fy alarD lyfsd fyha wyhlk alHrx walnsl wallh layHb alfsad
 
206.  *     When it is said to him, "Fear Allah., He is led by arrogance to (more) crime. Enough for him is Hell;-An evil bed indeed (To lie on)!     When he is told, "Observe GOD," he becomes arrogantly indignant. Consequently, his only destiny is Hell; what a miserable abode.     واذا قيل له اتق الله اخذته العزة بالاثم فحسبه جهنم ولبئس المهاد     waXa qyl lh atq allh aKXth al`z+ balaxm fHsbh jhnm wlbYs almhad
 
207.  *     And there is the type of man who gives his life to earn the pleasure of Allah. And Allah is full of kindness to (His) devotees.     Then there are those who dedicate their lives to serving GOD; GOD is compassionate towards such worshipers.     ومن الناس من يشري نفسه ابتغاء مرضاة الله والله رؤوف بالعباد     wmn alnas mn y$ry nfsh abtGa' mrDa+ allh wallh rWwf bal`bad
 
208.  *     O ye who believe! Enter into Islam whole-heartedly; and follow not the footsteps of the evil one; for he is to you an avowed enemy.     O you who believe, you shall embrace total submission; do not follow the steps of Satan, for he is your most ardent enemy.     ياايها الذين امنوا ادخلوا في السلم كافة ولاتتبعوا خطوات الشيطان انه لكم عدو مبين     yaayha alXyn amnwa adKlwa fy alslm kaf+ wlattb`wa KTwat al$yTan anh lkm `dw mbyn
 
209.  *     If ye backslide after the clear (Signs) have come to you, then know that Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise.     If you backslide, after the clear proofs have come to you, then know that GOD is Almighty, Most Wise.     فان زللتم من بعد ماجاءتكم البينات فاعلموا ان الله عزيز حكيم     fan zlltm mn b`d maja'tkm albynat fa`lmwa an allh `zyz Hkym
 
210.  *     Will they wait until Allah comes to them in canopies of clouds, with angels (in His train) and the question is (thus) settled? but to Allah do all questions go back (for decision).     Are they waiting until GOD Himself comes to them in dense clouds, together with the angels? When this happens, the whole matter will be terminated, and to GOD everything will be returned.     هل ينظرون الا ان ياتيهم الله في ظلل من الغمام والملائكة وقضى الامر والى الله ترجع الامور     hl ynZrwn ala an yatyhm allh fy Zll mn alGmam walmlaYk+ wqDi alamr wali allh trj` alamwr
 
211.  *     Ask the Children of Israel how many clear (Signs) We have sent them. But if any one, after Allah's favour has come to him, substitutes (something else), Allah is strict in punishment.     Ask the Children of Israel how many profound miracles have we shown them! For those who disregard the blessings bestowed upon them by GOD, GOD is most strict in retribution.     سل بني اسرائيل كم اتيناهم من اية بينة ومن يبدل نعمة الله من بعد ماجاءته فان الله شديد العقاب     sl bny asraYyl km atynahm mn ay+ byn+ wmn ybdl n`m+ allh mn b`d maja'th fan allh $dyd al`qab
 
212.  *     The life of this world is alluring to those who reject faith, and they scoff at those who believe. But the righteous will be above them on the Day of Resurrection; for Allah bestows His abundance without measure on whom He will.     This worldly life is adorned in the eyes of the disbelievers, and they ridicule those who believe. However, the righteous will be far above them on the Day of Resurrection. GOD blesses whomever He wills, without limits.     زين للذين كفروا الحياة الدنيا ويسخرون من الذين امنوا والذين اتقوا فوقهم يوم القيامة والله يرزق من يشاء بغير حساب     zyn llXyn kfrwa alHya+ aldnya wysKrwn mn alXyn amnwa walXyn atqwa fwqhm ywm alqyam+ wallh yrzq mn y$a' bGyr Hsab
 
213.  *     Mankind was one single nation, and Allah sent Messengers with glad tidings and warnings; and with them He sent the Book in truth, to judge between people in matters wherein they differed; but the People of the Book, after the clear Signs came to them, did not differ among themselves, except through selfish contumacy. Allah by His Grace Guided the believers to the Truth, concerning that wherein they differed. For Allah guided whom He will to a path that is straight.     The people used to be one community when GOD sent the prophets as bearers of good news, as well as warners. He sent down with them the scripture, bearing the truth, to judge among the people in their disputes. Ironically, those who received the scripture were the ones who rejected any new scripture, despite clear proofs given to them. This is due to jealousy on their part. GOD guides those who believe to the truth that is disputed by all others, in accordance with His will. GOD guides whoever wills in a straight path.     كان الناس امة واحدة فبعث الله النبيين مبشرين ومنذرين وانزل معهم الكتاب بالحق ليحكم بين الناس فيما اختلفوا فيه وما اختلف فيه الا الذين اوتوه من بعد ماجاءتهم البينات بغيا بينهم فهدى الله الذين امنوا لما اختلفوا فيه من الحق باذنه والله يهدي من يشاء الى صراط مستقيم     kan alnas am+ waHd+ fb`x allh alnbyyn mb$ryn wmnXryn wanzl m`hm alktab balHq lyHkm byn alnas fyma aKtlfwa fyh wma aKtlf fyh ala alXyn awtwh mn b`d maja'thm albynat bGya bynhm fhdi allh alXyn amnwa lma aKtlfwa fyh mn alHq baXnh wallh yhdy mn y$a' ali SraT mstqym
 
214.  *     Or do ye think that ye shall enter the Garden (of bliss) without such (trials) as came to those who passed away before you? they encountered suffering and adversity, and were so shaken in spirit that even the Messenger and those of faith who were with him cried: "When (will come) the help of Allah." Ah! Verily, the help of Allah is (always) near!     Do you expect to enter Paradise without being tested like those before you? They were tested with hardship and adversity, and were shaken up, until the messenger and those who believed with him said, "Where is GOD's victory?" GOD's victory is near.     ام حسبتم ان تدخلوا الجنة ولما ياتكم مثل الذين خلوا من قبلكم مستهم الباساء والضراء وزلزلوا حتى يقول الرسول والذين امنوا معه متى نصر الله الا ان نصر الله قريب     am Hsbtm an tdKlwa aljn+ wlma yatkm mxl alXyn Klwa mn qblkm msthm albasa' walDra' wzlzlwa Hti yqwl alrswl walXyn amnwa m`h mti nSr allh ala an nSr allh qryb
 
215.  *     They ask thee what they should spend (In charity). Say: Whatever ye spend that is good, is for parents and kindred and orphans and those in want and for wayfarers. And whatever ye do that is good,--(Allah) knoweth it well.     They ask you about giving: say, "The charity you give shall go to the parents, the relatives, the orphans, the poor, and the traveling alien." Any good you do, GOD is fully aware thereof.     يسألونك ماذا ينفقون قل ماانفقتم من خير فللوالدين والاقربين واليتامى والمساكين وابن السبيل وماتفعلوا من خير فان الله به عليم     ysAlwnk maXa ynfqwn ql maanfqtm mn Kyr fllwaldyn walaqrbyn walytami walmsakyn wabn alsbyl wmatf`lwa mn Kyr fan allh bh `lym
 
216.  *     Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knoweth, and ye know not.     Fighting may be imposed on you, even though you dislike it. But you may dislike something which is good for you, and you may like something which is bad for you. GOD knows while you do not know.     كتب عليكم القتال وهو كره لكم وعسى ان تكرهوا شيئا وهو خير لكم وعسى ان تحبوا شيئا وهو شر لكم والله يعلم وانتم لاتعلمون     ktb `lykm alqtal whw krh lkm w`si an tkrhwa $yYa whw Kyr lkm w`si an tHbwa $yYa whw $r lkm wallh y`lm wantm lat`lmwn
 
217.  *     They ask thee concerning fighting in the Prohibited Month. Say: "Fighting therein is a grave (offence); but graver is it in the sight of Allah to prevent access to the path of Allah, to deny Him, to prevent access to the Sacred Mosque, and drive out its members." Tumult and oppression are worse than slaughter. Nor will they cease fighting you until they turn you back from your faith if they can. And if any of you Turn back from their faith and die in unbelief, their works will bear no fruit in this life and in the Hereafter; they will be companions of the Fire and will abide therein.     They ask you about the Sacred Months and fighting therein: say, "Fighting therein is a sacrilege. However, repelling from the path of GOD and disbelieving in Him and in the sanctity of the Sacred Masjid, and evicting its people, are greater sacrileges in the sight of GOD. Oppression is worse than murder." They will always fight you to revert you from your religion, if they can. Those among you who revert from their religion, and die as disbelievers, have nullified their works in this life and the Hereafter. These are the dwellers of Hell, wherein they abide forever.     يسألونك عن الشهر الحرام قتال فيه قل قتال فيه كبير وصد عن سبيل الله وكفر به والمسجد الحرام واخراج اهله منه اكبر عند الله والفتنة اكبر من القتل ولايزالون يقاتلونكم حتي يردوكم عن دينكم ان استطاعوا ومن يرتدد منكم عن دينه فيمت وهو كافر فاولئك حبطت اعمالهم في الدنيا والاخرة واولئك اصحاب النار هم فيها خالدون     ysAlwnk `n al$hr alHram qtal fyh ql qtal fyh kbyr wSd `n sbyl allh wkfr bh walmsjd alHram waKraj ahlh mnh akbr `nd allh walftn+ akbr mn alqtl wlayzalwn yqatlwnkm Hty yrdwkm `n dynkm an astTa`wa wmn yrtdd mnkm `n dynh fymt whw kafr fawlYk HbTt a`malhm fy aldnya walaKr+ wawlYk aSHab alnar hm fyha Kaldwn
 
218.  *     Those who believed and those who suffered exile and fought (and strove and struggled) in the path of Allah,--they have the hope of the Mercy of Allah. And Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.     Those who believe, and those who emigrate and strive in the cause of GOD, have deserved GOD's mercy. GOD is Forgiver, Most Merciful.     ان الذين امنوا والذين هاجروا وجاهدوا في سبيل الله اولئك يرجون رحمة الله والله غفور رحيم     an alXyn amnwa walXyn hajrwa wjahdwa fy sbyl allh awlYk yrjwn rHm+ allh wallh Gfwr rHym
 
219.  *     They ask thee concerning wine and gambling. Say: "In them is great sin, and some profit, for men; but the sin is greater than the profit." They ask thee how much they are to spend; Say: "What is beyond your needs." Thus doth Allah Make clear to you His Signs: In order that ye may consider-     They ask you about intoxicants and gambling: say, "In them there is a gross sin, and some benefits for the people. But their sinfulness far outweighs their benefit." They also ask you what to give to charity: say, "The excess." GOD thus clarifies the revelations for you, that you may reflect,     يسألونك عن الخمر والميسر قل فيها اثم كبير ومنافع للناس واثمهما اكبر من نفعهما ويسألونك ماذا ينفقون قل العفو كذلك يبين الله لكم الايات لعلكم تتفكرون     ysAlwnk `n alKmr walmysr ql fyha axm kbyr wmnaf` llnas waxmhma akbr mn nf`hma wysAlwnk maXa ynfqwn ql al`fw kXlk ybyn allh lkm alayat l`lkm ttfkrwn
 
220.  *     (Their bearings) on this life and the Hereafter. They ask thee concerning orphans. Say: "The best thing to do is what is for their good; if ye mix their affairs with yours, they are your brethren; but Allah knows the man who means mischief from the man who means good. And if Allah had wished, He could have put you into difficulties: He is indeed Exalted in Power, Wise."     upon this life and the Hereafter. And they ask you about the orphans: say, "Bringing them up as righteous persons is the best you can do for them. If you mix their property with yours, you shall treat them as family members." GOD knows the righteous and the wicked. Had GOD willed, He could have imposed harsher rules upon you. GOD is ALmighty, Most Wise.     في الدنيا والاخرة ويسألونك عن اليتامى قل اصلاح لهم خير وان تخالطوهم فاخوانكم والله يعلم المفسد من المصلح ولو شاء الله لاعنتكم ان الله عزيز حكيم     fy aldnya walaKr+ wysAlwnk `n alytami ql aSlaH lhm Kyr wan tKalTwhm faKwankm wallh y`lm almfsd mn almSlH wlw $a' allh la`ntkm an allh `zyz Hkym
 
221.  *     Do not marry unbelieving women (idolaters), until they believe: A slave woman who believes is better than an unbelieving woman, even though she allures you. Nor marry (your girls) to unbelievers until they believe: A man slave who believes is better than an unbeliever, even though he allures you. Unbelievers do (but) beckon you to the Fire. But Allah beckons by His Grace to the Garden (of bliss) and forgiveness, and makes His Signs clear to mankind: That they may celebrate His praise.     Do not marry idolatresses unless they believe; a believing woman is better than an idolatress, even if you like her. Nor shall you give your daughters in marriage to idolatrous men, unless they believe. A believing man is better than an idolater, even if you like him. These invite to Hell, while GOD invites to Paradise and forgiveness, as He wills. He clarifies His revelations for the people, that they may take heed.     ولاتنكحوا المشركات حتى يؤمن ولامة مؤمنة خير من مشركة ولو اعجبتكم ولاتنكحوا المشركين حتى يؤمنوا ولعبد مؤمن خير من مشرك ولو اعجبكم اولئك يدعون الى النار والله يدعو الى الجنة والمغفرة باذنه ويبين اياته للناس لعلهم يتذكرون     wlatnkHwa alm$rkat Hti yWmn wlam+ mWmn+ Kyr mn m$rk+ wlw a`jbtkm wlatnkHwa alm$rkyn Hti yWmnwa wl`bd mWmn Kyr mn m$rk wlw a`jbkm awlYk yd`wn ali alnar wallh yd`w ali aljn+ walmGfr+ baXnh wybyn ayath llnas l`lhm ytXkrwn
 
222.  *     They ask thee concerning women's courses. Say: They are a hurt and a pollution: So keep away from women in their courses, and do not approach them until they are clean. But when they have purified themselves, ye may approach them in any manner, time, or place ordained for you by Allah. For Allah loves those who turn to Him constantly and He loves those who keep themselves pure and clean.     They ask you about menstruation: say, "It is harmful; you shall avoid sexual intercourse with the women during menstruation; do not approach them until they are rid of it. Once they are rid of it, you may have intercourse with them in the manner designed by GOD. GOD loves the repenters, and He loves those who are clean."     ويسألونك عن المحيض قل هو اذى فاعتزلوا النساء في المحيض ولاتقربوهن حتى يطهرن فاذا تطهرن فاتوهن من حيث امركم الله ان الله يحب التوابين ويحب المتطهرين     wysAlwnk `n almHyD ql hw aXi fa`tzlwa alnsa' fy almHyD wlatqrbwhn Hti yThrn faXa tThrn fatwhn mn Hyx amrkm allh an allh yHb altwabyn wyHb almtThryn
 
223.  *     Your wives are as a tilth unto you; so approach your tilth when or how ye will; but do some good act for your souls beforehand; and fear Allah. And know that ye are to meet Him (in the Hereafter), and give (these) good tidings to those who believe.     Your women are the bearers of your seed. Thus, you may enjoy this privilege however you like, so long as you maintain righteousness. You shall observe GOD, and know that you will meet Him. Give good news to the believers.     نساؤكم حرث لكم فاتوا حرثكم انى شئتم وقدموا لانفسكم واتقوا الله واعلموا انكم ملاقوه وبشر المؤمنين     nsaWkm Hrx lkm fatwa Hrxkm ani $Ytm wqdmwa lanfskm watqwa allh wa`lmwa ankm mlaqwh wb$r almWmnyn
 
224.  *     And make not Allah's (name) an excuse in your oaths against doing good, or acting rightly, or making peace between persons; for Allah is One Who heareth and knoweth all things.     Do not subject GOD's name to your casual swearing, that you may appear righteous, pious, or to attain credibility among the people. GOD is Hearer, Knower.     ولاتجعلوا الله عرضة لايمانكم ان تبروا وتتقوا وتصلحوا بين الناس والله سميع عليم     wlatj`lwa allh `rD+ laymankm an tbrwa wttqwa wtSlHwa byn alnas wallh smy` `lym
 
225.  *     Allah will not call you to account for thoughtlessness in your oaths, but for the intention in your hearts; and He is Oft-forgiving, Most Forbearing.     GOD does not hold you responsible for the mere utterance of oaths; He holds you responsible for your innermost intentions. GOD is Forgiver, Clement.     لايؤاخذكم الله باللغو في ايمانكم ولكن يؤاخذكم بما كسبت قلوبكم والله غفور حليم     layWaKXkm allh ballGw fy aymankm wlkn yWaKXkm bma ksbt qlwbkm wallh Gfwr Hlym
 
226.  *     For those who take an oath for abstention from their wives, a waiting for four months is ordained; if then they return, Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.     Those who intend to divorce their wives shall wait four months (cooling off); if they change their minds and reconcile, then GOD is Forgiver, Merciful.     للذين يؤلون من نسائهم تربص اربعة اشهر فان فاؤوا فان الله غفور رحيم     llXyn yWlwn mn nsaYhm trbS arb`+ a$hr fan faWwa fan allh Gfwr rHym
 
227.  *     But if their intention is firm for divorce, Allah heareth and knoweth all things.     If they go through with the divorce, then GOD is Hearer, Knower.     وان عزموا الطلاق فان الله سميع عليم     wan `zmwa alTlaq fan allh smy` `lym
 
228.  *     Divorced women shall wait concerning themselves for three monthly periods. Nor is it lawful for them to hide what Allah Hath created in their wombs, if they have faith in Allah and the Last Day. And their husbands have the better right to take them back in that period, if they wish for reconciliation. And women shall have rights similar to the rights against them, according to what is equitable; but men have a degree (of advantage) over them. And Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise.     The divorced women shall wait three menstruations (before marrying another man). It is not lawful for them to conceal what GOD creates in their wombs, if they believe in GOD and the Last Day. (In case of pregnancy,) the husband's wishes shall supersede the wife's wishes, if he wants to remarry her. The women have rights, as well as obligations, equitably. Thus, the man's wishes prevail (in case of pregnancy). GOD is Almighty, Most Wise.     والمطلقات يتربصن بانفسهن ثلاثة قروء ولايحل لهن ان يكتمن ماخلق الله في ارحامهن ان كن يؤمن بالله واليوم الاخر وبعولتهن احق بردهن في ذلك ان ارادوا اصلاحا ولهن مثل الذي عليهن بالمعروف وللرجال عليهن درجة والله عزيز حكيم     walmTlqat ytrbSn banfshn xlax+ qrw' wlayHl lhn an yktmn maKlq allh fy arHamhn an kn yWmn ballh walywm alaKr wb`wlthn aHq brdhn fy Xlk an aradwa aSlaHa wlhn mxl alXy `lyhn balm`rwf wllrjal `lyhn drj+ wallh `zyz Hkym
 
229.  *     A divorce is only permissible twice: after that, the parties should either hold Together on equitable terms, or separate with kindness. It is not lawful for you, (Men), to take back any of your gifts (from your wives), except when both parties fear that they would be unable to keep the limits ordained by Allah. If ye (judges) do indeed fear that they would be unable to keep the limits ordained by Allah, there is no blame on either of them if she give something for her freedom. These are the limits ordained by Allah. so do not transgress them if any do transgress the limits ordained by Allah, such persons wrong (Themselves as well as others).     Divorce may be retracted twice. The divorced woman shall be allowed to live in the same home amicably, or leave it amicably. It is not lawful for the husband to take back anything he had given her. However, the couple may fear that they may transgress GOD's law. If there is fear that they may transgress GOD's law, they commit no error if the wife willingly gives back whatever she chooses. These are GOD's laws; do not transgress them. Those who transgress GOD's laws are the unjust.     الطلاق مرتان فامساك بمعروف او تسريح باحسان ولايحل لكم ان تاخذوا مما اتيتموهن شيئا الا ان يخافا الا يقيما حدود الله فان خفتم الا يقيما حدود الله فلا جناح عليهما فيما افتدت به تلك حدود الله فلا تعتدوها ومن يتعد حدود الله فاؤلئك هم الظالمون     alTlaq mrtan famsak bm`rwf aw tsryH baHsan wlayHl lkm an taKXwa mma atytmwhn $yYa ala an yKafa ala yqyma Hdwd allh fan Kftm ala yqyma Hdwd allh fla jnaH `lyhma fyma aftdt bh tlk Hdwd allh fla t`tdwha wmn yt`d Hdwd allh faWlYk hm alZalmwn
 
230.  *     So if a husband divorces his wife (irrevocably), He cannot, after that, re-marry her until after she has married another husband and He has divorced her. In that case there is no blame on either of them if they re-unite, provided they feel that they can keep the limits ordained by Allah. Such are the limits ordained by Allah, which He makes plain to those who understand.     If he divorces her (for the third time), it is unlawful for him to remarry her, unless she marries another man, then he divorces her. The first husband can then remarry her, so long as they observe GOD's laws. These are GOD's laws; He explains them for people who know.     فان طلقها فلا تحل له من بعد حتى تنكح زوجا غيره فان طلقها فلا جناح عليهما ان يتراجعا ان ظنا ان يقيما حدود الله وتلك حدود الله يبينها لقوم يعلمون     fan Tlqha fla tHl lh mn b`d Hti tnkH zwja Gyrh fan Tlqha fla jnaH `lyhma an ytraj`a an Zna an yqyma Hdwd allh wtlk Hdwd allh ybynha lqwm y`lmwn
 
231.  *     When ye divorce women, and they fulfil the term of their ('Iddat), either take them back on equitable terms or set them free on equitable terms; but do not take them back to injure them, (or) to take undue advantage; if any one does that; He wrongs his own soul. Do not treat Allah's Signs as a jest, but solemnly rehearse Allah's favours on you, and the fact that He sent down to you the Book and Wisdom, for your instruction. And fear Allah, and know that Allah is well acquainted with all things.     If you divorce the women, once they fulfill their interim (three menstruations), you shall allow them to live in the same home amicably, or let them leave amicably. Do not force them to stay against their will, as a revenge. Anyone who does this wrongs his own soul. Do not take GOD's revelations in vain. Remember GOD's blessings upon you, and that He sent down to you the scripture and wisdom to enlighten you. You shall observe GOD, and know that GOD is aware of all things.     واذا طلقتم النساء فبلغن اجلهن فامسكوهن بمعروف او سرحوهن بمعروف ولاتمسكوهن ضرارا لتعتدوا ومن يفعل ذلك فقد ظلم نفسه ولاتتخذوا ايات الله هزوا واذكروا نعمة الله عليكم وماانزل عليكم من الكتاب والحكمة يعظكم به واتقوا الله واعلموا ان الله بكل شئ عليم     waXa Tlqtm alnsa' fblGn ajlhn famskwhn bm`rwf aw srHwhn bm`rwf wlatmskwhn Drara lt`tdwa wmn yf`l Xlk fqd Zlm nfsh wlattKXwa ayat allh hzwa waXkrwa n`m+ allh `lykm wmaanzl `lykm mn alktab walHkm+ y`Zkm bh watqwa allh wa`lmwa an allh bkl $Y `lym
 
232.  *     When ye divorce women, and they fulfil the term of their ('Iddat), do not prevent them from marrying their (former) husbands, if they mutually agree on equitable terms. This instruction is for all amongst you, who believe in Allah and the Last Day. That is (the course Making for) most virtue and purity amongst you and Allah knows, and ye know not.     If you divorce the women, once they fulfill their interim, do not prevent them from remarrying their husbands, if they reconcile amicably. This shall be heeded by those among you who believe in GOD and the Last Day. This is purer for you, and more righteous. GOD knows, while you do not know.     واذا طلقتم النساء فبلغن اجلهن فلا تعضلوهن ان ينكحن ازواجهن اذا تراضوا بينهم بالمعروف ذلك يوعظ به من كان منكم يؤمن بالله واليوم الاخر ذلكم ازكى لكم واطهر والله يعلم وانتم لاتعلمون     waXa Tlqtm alnsa' fblGn ajlhn fla t`Dlwhn an ynkHn azwajhn aXa traDwa bynhm balm`rwf Xlk yw`Z bh mn kan mnkm yWmn ballh walywm alaKr Xlkm azki lkm waThr wallh y`lm wantm lat`lmwn
 
233.  *     The mothers shall give such to their offspring for two whole years, if the father desires to complete the term. But he shall bear the cost of their food and clothing on equitable terms. No soul shall have a burden laid on it greater than it can bear. No mother shall be Treated unfairly on account of her child. Nor father on account of his child, an heir shall be chargeable in the same way. If they both decide on weaning, by mutual consent, and after due consultation, there is no blame on them. If ye decide on a foster-mother for your offspring, there is no blame on you, provided ye pay (the mother) what ye offered, on equitable terms. But fear Allah and know that Allah sees well what ye do.     Divorced mothers shall nurse their infants two full years, if the father so wishes. The father shall provide the mother's food and clothing equitably. No one shall be burdened beyond his ability. No mother shall be harmed on account of her infant, nor shall the father be harmed because of his infant. (If the father dies), his inheritor shall assume these responsibilities. If the infant's parents mutually agree to part, after due consultation, they commit no error by doing so. You commit no error by hiring nursing mothers, so long as you pay them equitably. You shall observe GOD, and know that GOD is Seer of everything you do.     والوالدات يرضعن اولادهن حولين كاملين لمن اراد ان يتم الرضاعة وعلى المولود له رزقهن وكسوتهن بالمعروف لاتكلف نفس الا وسعها لاتضار والدة بولدها ولامولود له بولده وعلى الوارث مثل ذلك فان ارادا فصالا عن تراض منهما وتشاور فلا جناح عليهما وان اردتم ان تسترضعوا اولادكم فلا جناح علكيم اذا سلمتم مااتيتم بالمعروف واتقوا الله واعلموا ان الله بما تعملون بصير     walwaldat yrD`n awladhn Hwlyn kamlyn lmn arad an ytm alrDa`+ w`li almwlwd lh rzqhn wkswthn balm`rwf latklf nfs ala ws`ha latDar wald+ bwldha wlamwlwd lh bwldh w`li alwarx mxl Xlk fan arada fSala `n traD mnhma wt$awr fla jnaH `lyhma wan ardtm an tstrD`wa awladkm fla jnaH `lkym aXa slmtm maatytm balm`rwf watqwa allh wa`lmwa an allh bma t`mlwn bSyr
 
234.  *     If any of you die and leave widows behind, they shall wait concerning themselves four months and ten days: When they have fulfilled their term, there is no blame on you if they dispose of themselves in a just and reasonable manner. And Allah is well acquainted with what ye do.     Those who die and leave wives, their widows shall wait four months and ten days (before they remarry). Once they fulfill their interim, you commit no error by letting them do whatever righteous matters they wish to do. GOD is fully Cognizant of everything you do.     والذين يتوفون منكم ويذرون ازواجا يتربصن بانفسهن اربعة اشهر وعشرا فاذا بلغن اجلهن فلا جناح عليكم فيما فعلن في انفسهن بالمعروف والله بما تعملون خبير     walXyn ytwfwn mnkm wyXrwn azwaja ytrbSn banfshn arb`+ a$hr w`$ra faXa blGn ajlhn fla jnaH `lykm fyma f`ln fy anfshn balm`rwf wallh bma t`mlwn Kbyr
 
235.  *     There is no blame on you if ye make an offer of betrothal or hold it in your hearts. Allah knows that ye cherish them in your hearts: But do not make a secret contract with them except in terms Honourable, nor resolve on the tie of marriage till the term prescribed is fulfilled. And know that Allah Knoweth what is in your hearts, and take heed of Him; and know that Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Forbearing.     You commit no sin by announcing your engagement to the women, or keeping it secret. GOD knows that you will think about them. Do not meet them secretly, unless you have something righteous to discuss. Do not consummate the marriage until their interim is fulfilled. You should know that GOD knows your innermost thoughts, and observe Him. You should know that GOD is Forgiver, Clement.     ولاجناح عليكم فيما عرضتم به من خطبة النساء او اكننتم في انفسكم علم الله انكم ستذكرونهن ولكن لاتواعدوهن سرا الا ان تقولوا قولا معروفا ولاتعزموا عقدة النكاح حتى يبلغ الكتاب اجله واعلموا ان الله يعلم مافي انفسكم فاحذروه واعلموا ان الله غفور حليم     wlajnaH `lykm fyma `rDtm bh mn KTb+ alnsa' aw aknntm fy anfskm `lm allh ankm stXkrwnhn wlkn latwa`dwhn sra ala an tqwlwa qwla m`rwfa wlat`zmwa `qd+ alnkaH Hti yblG alktab ajlh wa`lmwa an allh y`lm mafy anfskm faHXrwh wa`lmwa an allh Gfwr Hlym
 
236.  *     There is no blame on you if ye divorce women before consummation or the fixation of their dower; but bestow on them (A suitable gift), the wealthy according to his means, and the poor according to his means;--A gift of a reasonable amount is due from those who wish to do the right thing.     You commit no error by divorcing the women before touching them, or before setting the dowry for them. In this case, you shall compensate them - the rich as he can afford and the poor as he can afford - an equitable compensation. This is a duty upon the righteous.     لاجناح عليكم ان طلقتم النساء مالم تمسوهن او تفرضوا لهن فريضة ومتعوهن على الموسع قدره وعلى المقتر قدره متاعا بالمعروف حقا على المحسنين     lajnaH `lykm an Tlqtm alnsa' malm tmswhn aw tfrDwa lhn fryD+ wmt`whn `li almws` qdrh w`li almqtr qdrh mta`a balm`rwf Hqa `li almHsnyn
 
237.  *     And if ye divorce them before consummation, but after the fixation of a dower for them, then the half of the dower (Is due to them), unless they remit it or (the man's half) is remitted by him in whose hands is the marriage tie; and the remission (of the man's half) is the nearest to righteousness. And do not forget Liberality between yourselves. For Allah sees well all that ye do.     If you divorce them before touching them, but after you had set the dowry for them, the compensation shall be half the dowry, unless they voluntarily forfeit their rights, or the party responsible for causing the divorce chooses to forfeit the dowry. To forfeit is closer to righteousness. You shall maintain the amicable relations among you. GOD is Seer of everything you do.     وان طلقتموهن من قبل ان تمسوهن وقد فرضتم لهن فريضة فنصف مافرضتم الا ان يعفون او يعفو الذي بيده عقدة النكاح وان تعفوا اقرب للتقوى ولاتنسوا الفضل بينكم ان الله بما تعملون بصير     wan Tlqtmwhn mn qbl an tmswhn wqd frDtm lhn fryD+ fnSf mafrDtm ala an y`fwn aw y`fw alXy bydh `qd+ alnkaH wan t`fwa aqrb lltqwi wlatnswa alfDl bynkm an allh bma t`mlwn bSyr
 
238.  *     Guard strictly your (habit of) prayers, especially the Middle Prayer; and stand before Allah in a devout (frame of mind).     You shall consistently observe the Contact Prayers, especially the middle prayer, and devote yourselves totally to GOD.     حافظوا على الصلوات والصلاة الوسطى وقوموا لله قانتين     HafZwa `li alSlwat walSla+ alwsTi wqwmwa llh qantyn
 
239.  *     If ye fear (an enemy), pray on foot, or riding, (as may be most convenient), but when ye are in security, celebrate Allah's praises in the manner He has taught you, which ye knew not (before).     Under unusual circumstances, you may pray while walking or riding. Once you are safe, you shall commemorate GOD as He taught you what you never knew.     فان خفتم فرجالا او ركبانا فاذا امنتم فاذكروا الله كما علمكم مالم تكونوا تعلمون     fan Kftm frjala aw rkbana faXa amntm faXkrwa allh kma `lmkm malm tkwnwa t`lmwn
 
240.  *     Those of you who die and leave widows should bequeath for their widows a year's maintenance and residence; but if they leave (The residence), there is no blame on you for what they do with themselves, provided it is reasonable. And Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise.     Those who die and leave wives, a will shall provide their wives with support for a year, provided they stay within the same household. If they leave, you commit no sin by letting them do whatever they wish, so long as righteousness is maintained. GOD is Almighty, Most Wise.     والذين يتوفون منكم ويذرون ازواجا وصية لازواجهم متاعا الى الحول غير اخراج فان خرجن فلا جناح عليكم فيما فعلن في انفسهن من معروف والله عزيز حكيم     walXyn ytwfwn mnkm wyXrwn azwaja wSy+ lazwajhm mta`a ali alHwl Gyr aKraj fan Krjn fla jnaH `lykm fyma f`ln fy anfshn mn m`rwf wallh `zyz Hkym
 
241.  *     For divorced women Maintenance (should be provided) on a reasonable (scale). This is a duty on the righteous.     The divorcees also shall be provided for, equitably. This is a duty upon the righteous.     وللمطلقات متاع بالمعروف حقا على المتقين     wllmTlqat mta` balm`rwf Hqa `li almtqyn
 
242.  *     Thus doth Allah Make clear His Signs to you: In order that ye may understand.     GOD thus explains His revelations for you, that you may understand.     كذلك يبين الله لكم اياته لعلكم تعقلون     kXlk ybyn allh lkm ayath l`lkm t`qlwn
 
243.  *     Didst thou not Turn by vision to those who abandoned their homes, though they were thousands (In number), for fear of death? Allah said to them: "Die": Then He restored them to life. For Allah is full of bounty to mankind, but Most of them are ungrateful.     Have you noted those who fled their homes - though they were in the thousands - fearing death? GOD said to them, "Die," then revived them. GOD showers His grace upon the people, but most people are unappreciative.     الم تر الى الذين خرجوا من ديارهم وهم الوف حذر الموت فقال لهم الله موتوا ثم احياهم ان الله لذو فضل على الناس ولكن اكثر الناس لايشكرون     alm tr ali alXyn Krjwa mn dyarhm whm alwf HXr almwt fqal lhm allh mwtwa xm aHyahm an allh lXw fDl `li alnas wlkn akxr alnas lay$krwn
 
244.  *     Then fight in the cause of Allah, and know that Allah Heareth and knoweth all things.     You shall fight in the cause of GOD, and know that GOD is Hearer, Knower.     وقاتلوا في سبيل الله واعلموا ان الله سميع عليم     wqatlwa fy sbyl allh wa`lmwa an allh smy` `lym
 
245.  *     Who is he that will loan to Allah a beautiful loan, which Allah will double unto his credit and multiply many times? It is Allah that giveth (you) Want or plenty, and to Him shall be your return.     Who would lend GOD a loan of righteousness, to have it repaid to them multiplied manifold? GOD is the One who provides and withholds, and to Him you will be returned.     من ذا الذي يقرض الله قرضا حسنا فيضاعفه له اضعافا كثيرة والله يقبض ويبسط واليه ترجعون     mn Xa alXy yqrD allh qrDa Hsna fyDa`fh lh aD`afa kxyr+ wallh yqbD wybsT walyh trj`wn
 
246.  *     Hast thou not Turned thy vision to the Chiefs of the Children of Israel after (the time of) Moses? they said to a prophet (That was) among them: "Appoint for us a king, that we May fight in the cause of Allah." He said: "Is it not possible, if ye were commanded to fight, that that ye will not fight?" They said: "How could we refuse to fight in the cause of Allah, seeing that we were turned out of our homes and our families?" but when they were commanded to fight, they turned back, except a small band among them. But Allah Has full knowledge of those who do wrong.     Have you noted the leaders of Israel after Moses? They said to their prophet, "If you appoint a king to lead us, we will fight in the cause of GOD." He said, "Is it your intention that, if fighting is decreed for you, you will not fight?" They said, "Why should we not fight in the cause of GOD, when we have been deprived of our homes, and our children?" Yet, when fighting was decreed for them, they turned away, except a few. GOD is aware of the transgressors.     الم تر الى الملإ من بني اسرائيل من بعد موسى اذ قالوا لنبي لهم ابعث لنا ملكا نقاتل في سبيل الله قال هل عسيتم ان كتب عليكم القتال الا تقاتلوا قالوا ومالنا الا نقاتل في سبيل الله وقد اخرجنا من ديارنا وابنائنا فلما كتب عليهم القتال تولوا الا قليلا منهم  والله عليم بالظالمين     alm tr ali almlI mn bny asraYyl mn b`d mwsi aX qalwa lnby lhm ab`x lna mlka nqatl fy sbyl allh qal hl `sytm an ktb `lykm alqtal ala tqatlwa qalwa wmalna ala nqatl fy sbyl allh wqd aKrjna mn dyarna wabnaYna flma ktb `lyhm alqtal twlwa ala qlyla mnhm  wallh `lym balZalmyn
 
247.  *     Their Prophet said to them: "(Allah) hath appointed Talut as king over you." They said: "How can he exercise authority over us when we are better fitted than he to exercise authority, and he is not even gifted, with wealth in abundance?" He said: "(Allah) hath Chosen him above you, and hath gifted him abundantly with knowledge and bodily prowess: Allah Granteth His authority to whom He pleaseth. Allah careth for all, and He knoweth all things."     Their prophet said to them, "GOD has appointed Taloot (Saul) to be your king." They said, "How can he have kingship over us when we are more worthy of kingship than he; he is not even rich?" He said, "GOD has chosen him over you, and has blessed him with an abundance in knowledge and in body." GOD grants His kingship to whomever He wills. GOD is Bounteous, Omniscient.     وقال لهم نبيهم ان الله قد بعث لكم طالوت ملكا قالوا انى يكون له الملك علينا ونحن احق بالملك منه ولم يؤت سعة من المال قال ان الله اصطفاه عليكم وزاده بسطة في العلم والجسم والله يؤتي ملكه من يشاء والله واسع عليم     wqal lhm nbyhm an allh qd b`x lkm Talwt mlka qalwa ani ykwn lh almlk `lyna wnHn aHq balmlk mnh wlm yWt s`+ mn almal qal an allh aSTfah `lykm wzadh bsT+ fy al`lm waljsm wallh yWty mlkh mn y$a' wallh was` `lym
 
248.  *     And (further) their Prophet said to them: "A Sign of his authority is that there shall come to you the Ark of the covenant, with (an assurance) therein of security from your Lord, and the relics left by the family of Moses and the family of Aaron, carried by angels. In this is a symbol for you if ye indeed have faith."     Their prophet said to them, "The sign of his kingship is that the Ark of the Covenant will be restored to you, bringing assurances from your Lord, and relics left by the people of Moses and the people of Aaron. It will be carried by the angels. This should be a convincing sign for you, if you are really believers."     وقال لهم نبيهم ان اية ملكه ان ياتيكم التابوت فيه سكينة من ربكم وبقية مما ترك ال موسى وال هارون تحمله الملائكة ان في ذلك لاية لكم ان كنتم مؤمنين     wqal lhm nbyhm an ay+ mlkh an yatykm altabwt fyh skyn+ mn rbkm wbqy+ mma trk al mwsi wal harwn tHmlh almlaYk+ an fy Xlk lay+ lkm an kntm mWmnyn
 
249.  *     When Talut set forth with the armies, he said: "(Allah) will test you at the stream: if any drinks of its water, He goes not with my army: Only those who taste not of it go with me: A mere sip out of the hand is excused." but they all drank of it, except a few. When they crossed the river,--He and the faithful ones with him,--they said: "This day We cannot cope with Goliath and his forces." but those who were convinced that they must meet Allah, said: "How oft, by Allah's will, Hath a small force vanquished a big one? Allah is with those who steadfastly persevere."     When Saul took command of the troops, he said, "GOD is putting you to the test by means of a stream. Anyone who drinks from it does not belong with me - only those who do not taste it belong with me - unless it is just a single sip." They drank from it, except a few of them. When he crossed it with those who believed, they said, "Now we lack the strength to face Goliath and his troops." Those who were conscious of meeting GOD said, "Many a small army defeated a large army by GOD's leave. GOD is with those who steadfastly persevere."     فلما فصل طالوت بالجنود قال ان الله مبتليكم بنهر فمن شرب منه فليس مني ومن لم يطعمه فانه مني الا من اغترف غرفة بيده فشربوا منه الا قليلا منهم فلما جاوزه هو والذين امنوا معه قالوا لاطاقة لنا اليوم بجالوت وجنوده قال الذين يظنون انهم ملاقوا الله كم من فئة  قليلة غلبت فئة كثيرة باذن الله والله مع الصابرين     flma fSl Talwt baljnwd qal an allh mbtlykm bnhr fmn $rb mnh flys mny wmn lm yT`mh fanh mny ala mn aGtrf Grf+ bydh f$rbwa mnh ala qlyla mnhm flma jawzh hw walXyn amnwa m`h qalwa laTaq+ lna alywm bjalwt wjnwdh qal alXyn yZnwn anhm mlaqwa allh km mn fY+  qlyl+ Glbt fY+ kxyr+ baXn allh wallh m` alSabryn
 
250.  *     When they advanced to meet Goliath and his forces, they prayed: "Our Lord! Pour out constancy on us and make our steps firm: Help us against those that reject faith."     When they faced Goliath and his troops, they prayed, "Our Lord, grant us steadfastness, strengthen our foothold, and support us against the disbelieving people."     ولما برزوا لجالوت وجنوده قالوا ربنا افرغ علينا صبرا وثبت اقدامنا وانصرنا على القوم الكافرين     wlma brzwa ljalwt wjnwdh qalwa rbna afrG `lyna Sbra wxbt aqdamna wanSrna `li alqwm alkafryn
 
251.  *     By Allah's will they routed them; and David slew Goliath; and Allah gave him power and wisdom and taught him whatever (else) He willed. And did not Allah Check one set of people by means of another, the earth would indeed be full of mischief: But Allah is full of bounty to all the worlds.     They defeated them by GOD's leave, and David killed Goliath. GOD gave him kingship and wisdom, and taught him as He willed. If it were not for GOD's support of some people against others, there would be chaos on earth. But GOD showers His grace upon the people.     فهزموهم باذن الله وقتل داؤود جالوت واتاه الله الملك والحكمة وعلمه مما يشاء ولولا دفع الله الناس بعضهم ببعض لفسدت الارض ولكن الله ذو فضل على العالمين     fhzmwhm baXn allh wqtl daWwd jalwt watah allh almlk walHkm+ w`lmh mma y$a' wlwla df` allh alnas b`Dhm bb`D lfsdt alarD wlkn allh Xw fDl `li al`almyn
 
252.  *     These are the Signs of Allah. we rehearse them to thee in truth: verily Thou art one of the apostles.     These are GOD's revelations. We recite them through you, truthfully, for you are one of the messengers.     تلك ايات الله نتلوها عليك بالحق وانك لمن المرسلين     tlk ayat allh ntlwha `lyk balHq wank lmn almrslyn
 
253.  *     Those apostles We endowed with gifts, some above others: To one of them Allah spoke; others He raised to degrees (of honour); to Jesus the son of Mary We gave clear (Signs), and strengthened him with the holy spirit. If Allah had so willed, succeeding generations would not have fought among each other, after clear (Signs) had come to them, but they (chose) to wrangle, some believing and others rejecting. If Allah had so willed, they would not have fought each other; but Allah Fulfilleth His plan.     These messengers; we blessed some of them more than others. For example, GOD spoke to one, and we raised some of them to higher ranks. And we gave Jesus, son of Mary, profound miracles and supported him with the Holy Spirit. Had GOD willed, their followers would not have fought with each other, after the clear proofs had come to them. Instead, they disputed among themselves; some of them believed, and some disbelieved. Had GOD willed, they would not have fought. Everything is in accordance with GOD's will.     تلك الرسل فضلنا بعضهم على بعض منهم من كلم الله ورفع بعضهم درجات واتينا عيسى ابن مريم البينات وايدناه بروح القدس ولو شاء الله مااقتتل الذين من بعدهم من بعد ماجاءتهم البينات ولكن اختلفوا فمنهم من امن ومنهم من كفر ولو شاء الله مااقتتلوا ولكن الله يفعل  مايريد     tlk alrsl fDlna b`Dhm `li b`D mnhm mn klm allh wrf` b`Dhm drjat watyna `ysi abn mrym albynat waydnah brwH alqds wlw $a' allh maaqttl alXyn mn b`dhm mn b`d maja'thm albynat wlkn aKtlfwa fmnhm mn amn wmnhm mn kfr wlw $a' allh maaqttlwa wlkn allh yf`l  mayryd
 
254.  *     O ye who believe! Spend out of (the bounties) We have provided for you, before the Day comes when no bargaining (Will avail), nor friendship nor intercession. Those who reject Faith they are the wrong-doers.     O you who believe, you shall give to charity from the provisions we have given to you, before a day comes where there is no trade, no nepotism, and no intercession. The disbelievers are the unjust.     ياايها الذين امنوا انفقوا ممارزقناكم من قبل ان ياتي يوم لابيع فيه ولاخلة ولاشفاعة والكافرون هم الظالمون     yaayha alXyn amnwa anfqwa mmarzqnakm mn qbl an yaty ywm laby` fyh wlaKl+ wla$fa`+ walkafrwn hm alZalmwn
 
255.  *     Allah. There is no god but He,--the Living, the Self-subsisting, Eternal. No slumber can seize Him nor sleep. His are all things in the heavens and on earth. Who is there can intercede in His presence except as He permitteth? He knoweth what (appeareth to His creatures as) before or after or behind them. Nor shall they compass aught of His knowledge except as He willeth. His Throne doth extend over the heavens and the earth, and He feeleth no fatigue in guarding and preserving them for He is the Most High, the Supreme (in glory).     GOD: there is no other god besides Him, the Living, the Eternal. Never a moment of unawareness or slumber overtakes Him. To Him belongs everything in the heavens and everything on earth. Who could intercede with Him, except in accordance with His will? He knows their past, and their future. No one attains any knowledge, except as He wills. His dominion encompasses the heavens and the earth, and ruling them never burdens Him. He is the Most High, the Great.     الله لااله الا هوالحي القيوم لاتاخذه سنة ولانوم له مافي السماوات ومافي الارض من ذا الذي يشفع عنده الا باذنه يعلم مابين ايديهم وماخلفهم ولايحيطون بشئ من علمه الا بما شاء وسع كرسيه السماوات والارض ولايؤوده حفظهما وهو العلي العظيم     allh laalh ala hwalHy alqywm lataKXh sn+ wlanwm lh mafy alsmawat wmafy alarD mn Xa alXy y$f` `ndh ala baXnh y`lm mabyn aydyhm wmaKlfhm wlayHyTwn b$Y mn `lmh ala bma $a' ws` krsyh alsmawat walarD wlayWwdh HfZhma whw al`ly al`Zym
 
256.  *     Let there be no compulsion in religion: Truth stands out clear from Error: whoever rejects evil and believes in Allah hath grasped the most trustworthy hand-hold, that never breaks. And Allah heareth and knoweth all things.     There shall be no compulsion in religion: the right way is now distinct from the wrong way. Anyone who denounces the devil and believes in GOD has grasped the strongest bond; one that never breaks. GOD is Hearer, Omniscient.     لااكراه في الدين قد تبين الرشد من الغي فمن يكفر بالطاغوت ويؤمن بالله فقد استمسك بالعروة الوثقى لاانفصام لها والله سميع عليم     laakrah fy aldyn qd tbyn alr$d mn alGy fmn ykfr balTaGwt wyWmn ballh fqd astmsk bal`rw+ alwxqi laanfSam lha wallh smy` `lym
 
257.  *     Allah is the Protector of those who have faith: from the depths of darkness He will lead them forth into light. Of those who reject faith the patrons are the evil ones: from light they will lead them forth into the depths of darkness. They will be companions of the fire, to dwell therein (For ever).     GOD is Lord of those who believe; He leads them out of darkness into the light. As for those who disbelieve, their lords are their idols; they lead them out of the light into darkness - these will be the dwellers of Hell; they abide in it forever.     الله ولي الذين امنوا يخرجهم من الظلمات الى النور والذين كفروا اولياؤهم الطاغوت يخرجونهم من النور الى الظلمات اولئك اصحاب النار هم فيها خالدون     allh wly alXyn amnwa yKrjhm mn alZlmat ali alnwr walXyn kfrwa awlyaWhm alTaGwt yKrjwnhm mn alnwr ali alZlmat awlYk aSHab alnar hm fyha Kaldwn
 
258.  *     Hast thou not Turned thy vision to one who disputed with Abraham About his Lord, because Allah had granted him power? Abraham said: "My Lord is He Who Giveth life and death." He said: "I give life and death". Said Abraham: "But it is Allah that causeth the sun to rise from the east: Do thou then cause him to rise from the West." Thus was he confounded who (in arrogance) rejected faith. Nor doth Allah Give guidance to a people unjust.     Have you noted the one who argued with Abraham about his Lord, though GOD had given him kingship? Abraham said, "My Lord grants life and death." He said, "I grant life and death." Abraham said, "GOD brings the sun from the east, can you bring it from the west?" The disbeliever was stumped. GOD does not guide the wicked.     الم تر الى الذي حاج ابراهيم في ربه ان اتاه الله الملك اذ قال ابراهيم ربي الذي يحيي ويميت قال انا احيي واميت قال ابراهيم فان الله ياتي بالشمس من المشرق فات بها من المغرب فبهت الذي كفر والله لايهدي القوم الظالمين     alm tr ali alXy Haj abrahym fy rbh an atah allh almlk aX qal abrahym rby alXy yHyy wymyt qal ana aHyy wamyt qal abrahym fan allh yaty bal$ms mn alm$rq fat bha mn almGrb fbht alXy kfr wallh layhdy alqwm alZalmyn
 
259.  *     Or (take) the similitude of one who passed by a hamlet, all in ruins to its roofs. He said: "Oh! how shall Allah bring it (ever) to life, after (this) its death?" but Allah caused him to die for a hundred years, then raised him up (again). He said: "How long didst thou tarry (thus)?" He said: (Perhaps) a day or part of a day." He said: "Nay, thou hast tarried thus a hundred years; but look at thy food and thy drink; they show no signs of age; and look at thy donkey: And that We may make of thee a sign unto the people, Look further at the bones, how We bring them together and clothe them with flesh." When this was shown clearly to him, he said: "I know that Allah hath power over all things."     Consider the one who passed by a ghost town and wondered, "How can GOD revive this after it had died?" GOD then put him to death for a hundred years, then resurrected him. He said, "How long have you stayed here?" He said, "I have been here a day, or part of the day." He said, "No! You have been here a hundred years. Yet, look at your food and drink; they did not spoil. Look at your donkey - we thus render you a lesson for the people. Now, note how we construct the bones, then cover them with flesh." When he realized what had happened, he said, "Now I know that GOD is Omnipotent."     او كالذي مر على قرية وهي خاوية على عروشها قال انى يحيي هذه الله بعد موتها فاماته الله مئة عام ثم بعثه قال كم لبثت قال لبثت يوما او بعض يوم قال بل لبثت مئة عام فانظر الى طعامك وشرابك لم يتسنه وانظر الى حمارك ولنجعلك اية للناس وانظر الى العظام كيف ننشزها  ثم نكسوها لحما فلما تبين له قال اعلم ان الله على كل شئ قدير     aw kalXy mr `li qry+ why Kawy+ `li `rw$ha qal ani yHyy hXh allh b`d mwtha famath allh mY+ `am xm b`xh qal km lbxt qal lbxt ywma aw b`D ywm qal bl lbxt mY+ `am fanZr ali T`amk w$rabk lm ytsnh wanZr ali Hmark wlnj`lk ay+ llnas wanZr ali al`Zam kyf nn$zha  xm nkswha lHma flma tbyn lh qal a`lm an allh `li kl $Y qdyr
 
260.  *     Behold! Abraham said: "My Lord! Show me how Thou givest life to the dead." He said: "Dost thou not then believe?" He said: "Yea! but to satisfy My own undertaking." He said: "Take four birds; Tame them to turn to thee; put a portion of them on every hill and call to them: They will come to thee (Flying) with speed. Then know that Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise."     Abraham said, "My Lord, show me how You revive the dead." He said, "Do you not believe?" He said, "Yes, but I wish to reassure my heart." He said, "Take four birds, study their marks, place a piece of each bird on top of a hill, then call them to you. They will come to you in a hurry. You should know that GOD is Almighty, Most Wise."     واذ قال ابراهيم رب ارني كيف تحيي الموتى قال اولم تؤمن قال بلى ولكن ليطمئن قلبي قال فخذ اربعة من الطير فصرهن اليك ثم اجعل على كل جبل منهن جزءا ثم ادعهن ياتينك سعيا واعلم ان الله عزيز حكيم     waX qal abrahym rb arny kyf tHyy almwti qal awlm tWmn qal bli wlkn lyTmYn qlby qal fKX arb`+ mn alTyr fSrhn alyk xm aj`l `li kl jbl mnhn jz'a xm ad`hn yatynk s`ya wa`lm an allh `zyz Hkym
 
261.  *     The parable of those who spend their substance in the way of Allah is that of a grain of corn: it groweth seven ears, and each ear Hath a hundred grains. Allah giveth manifold increase to whom He pleaseth: And Allah careth for all and He knoweth all things.     The example of those who spend their monies in the cause of GOD is that of a grain that produces seven spikes, with a hundred grains in each spike. GOD multiplies this manifold for whomever He wills. GOD is Bounteous, Knower.     مثل الذين ينفقون اموالهم في سبيل الله كمثل حبة انبتت سبع سنابل في كل سنبلة مئة حبة والله يضاعف لمن يشاء والله واسع عليم     mxl alXyn ynfqwn amwalhm fy sbyl allh kmxl Hb+ anbtt sb` snabl fy kl snbl+ mY+ Hb+ wallh yDa`f lmn y$a' wallh was` `lym
 
262.  *     Those who spend their substance in the cause of Allah, and follow not up their gifts with reminders of their generosity or with injury,--for them their reward is with their Lord: on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.     Those who spend their money in the cause of GOD, then do not follow their charity with insult or harm, will receive their recompense from their Lord; they have nothing to fear, nor will they grieve.     الذين ينفقون اموالهم في سبيل الله ثم لايتبعون ماانفقوا منا ولا اذي لهم اجرهم عند ربهم ولاخوف عليهم ولاهم يحزنون     alXyn ynfqwn amwalhm fy sbyl allh xm laytb`wn maanfqwa mna wla aXy lhm ajrhm `nd rbhm wlaKwf `lyhm wlahm yHznwn
 
263.  *     Kind words and the covering of faults are better than charity followed by injury. Allah is free of all wants, and He is Most-Forbearing.     Kind words and compassion are better than a charity that is followed by insult. GOD is Rich, Clement.     قول معروف ومغفرة خير من صدقة يتبعها اذى والله غني حليم     qwl m`rwf wmGfr+ Kyr mn Sdq+ ytb`ha aXi wallh Gny Hlym
 
264.  *     O ye who believe! cancel not your charity by reminders of your generosity or by injury,--like those who spend their substance to be seen of men, but believe neither in Allah nor in the Last Day. They are in parable like a hard, barren rock, on which is a little soil: on it falls heavy rain, which leaves it (Just) a bare stone. They will be able to do nothing with aught they have earned. And Allah guideth not those who reject faith.     O you who believe, do not nullify your charities by inflicting reproach and insult, like one who spends his money to show off, while disbelieving in GOD and the Last Day. His example is like a rock covered with a thin layer of soil; as soon as heavy rain falls, it washes off the soil, leaving it a useless rock. They gain nothing from their efforts. GOD does not guide disbelieving people.     ياايها الذين امنوا لاتبطلوا صدقاتكم بالمن والاذى كالذي ينفق ماله رئاء الناس ولايؤمن بالله واليوم الاخر فمثله كمثل صفوان عليه تراب فاصابه وابل فتركه صلدا لايقدرون على شئ مما كسبوا والله لايهدي القوم الكافرين     yaayha alXyn amnwa latbTlwa Sdqatkm balmn walaXi kalXy ynfq malh rYa' alnas wlayWmn ballh walywm alaKr fmxlh kmxl Sfwan `lyh trab faSabh wabl ftrkh Slda layqdrwn `li $Y mma ksbwa wallh layhdy alqwm alkafryn
 
265.  *     And the likeness of those who spend their substance, seeking to please Allah and to strengthen their souls, is as a garden, high and fertile: heavy rain falls on it but makes it yield a double increase of harvest, and if it receives not Heavy rain, light moisture sufficeth it. Allah seeth well whatever ye do.     The example of those who give their money seeking GOD's pleasure, out of sincere conviction, is that of a garden on high fertile soil; when heavy rain falls, it gives twice as much crop. If heavy rain is not available, a drizzle will suffice. GOD is Seer of everything you do.     ومثل الذين ينفقون اموالهم ابتغاء مرضاة الله وتثبيتا من انفسهم كمثل جنة بربوة اصابها وابل فاتت اكلها ضعفين فان لم يصبها وابل فطل والله بما تعملون بصير     wmxl alXyn ynfqwn amwalhm abtGa' mrDa+ allh wtxbyta mn anfshm kmxl jn+ brbw+ aSabha wabl fatt aklha D`fyn fan lm ySbha wabl fTl wallh bma t`mlwn bSyr
 
266.  *     Does any of you wish that he should have a garden with date-palms and vines and streams flowing underneath, and all kinds of fruit, while he is stricken with old age, and his children are not strong (enough to look after themselves)--that it should be caught in a whirlwind, with fire therein, and be burnt up? Thus doth Allah make clear to you (His) Signs; that ye may consider.     Does any of you wish to own a garden of palm trees and grapes, with flowing streams and generous crops, then, just as he grows old, and while his children are still dependent on him, a holocaust strikes and burns up his garden? GOD thus clarifies the revelations for you, that you may reflect.     ايود احدكم ان تكون له جنة من نخيل واعناب تجري من تحتها الانهار له فيها من كل الثمرات واصابه الكبر وله ذرية ضعفاء فاصابها اعصار فيه نار فاحترقت كذلك يبين الله لكم الايات لعلكم تتفكرون     aywd aHdkm an tkwn lh jn+ mn nKyl wa`nab tjry mn tHtha alanhar lh fyha mn kl alxmrat waSabh alkbr wlh Xry+ D`fa' faSabha a`Sar fyh nar faHtrqt kXlk ybyn allh lkm alayat l`lkm ttfkrwn
 
267.  *     O ye who believe! Give of the good things which ye have (honourably) earned, and of the fruits of the earth which We have produced for you, and do not even aim at getting anything which is bad, in order that out of it ye may give away something, when ye yourselves would not receive it except with closed eyes. And know that Allah is Free of all wants, and worthy of all praise.     O you who believe, you shall give to charity from the good things you earn, and from what we have produced for you from the earth. Do not pick out the bad therein to give away, when you yourselves do not accept it unless your eyes are closed. You should know that GOD is Rich, Praiseworthy.     ياايها الذين امنوا انفقوا من طيبات ماكسبتم ومما اخرجنا لكم من الارض ولاتيمموا الخبيث منه تنفقون ولستم باخذيه الا ان تغمضوا فيه واعلموا ان الله غني حميد     yaayha alXyn amnwa anfqwa mn Tybat maksbtm wmma aKrjna lkm mn alarD wlatymmwa alKbyx mnh tnfqwn wlstm baKXyh ala an tGmDwa fyh wa`lmwa an allh Gny Hmyd
 
268.  *     The Evil one threatens you with poverty and bids you to conduct unseemly. Allah promiseth you His forgiveness and bounties. And Allah careth for all and He knoweth all things.     The devil promises you poverty and commands you to commit evil, while GOD promises you forgiveness from Him and grace. GOD is Bounteous, Omniscient.     الشيطان يعدكم الفقر ويامركم بالفحشاء والله يعدكم مغفرة منه وفضلا والله واسع عليم     al$yTan y`dkm alfqr wyamrkm balfH$a' wallh y`dkm mGfr+ mnh wfDla wallh was` `lym
 
269.  *     He granteth wisdom to whom He pleaseth; and he to whom wisdom is granted receiveth indeed a benefit overflowing; but none will grasp the Message but men of understanding.     He bestows wisdom upon whomever He chooses, and whoever attains wisdom, has attained a great bounty. Only those who possess intelligence will take heed.     يؤتي الحكمة من يشاء ومن يؤت الحكمة فقد اوتي خيرا كثيرا ومايذكر الا اولوا الالباب     yWty alHkm+ mn y$a' wmn yWt alHkm+ fqd awty Kyra kxyra wmayXkr ala awlwa alalbab
 
270.  *     And whatever ye spend in charity or devotion, be sure Allah knows it all. But the wrong-doers have no helpers.     Any charity you give, or a charitable pledge you fulfill, GOD is fully aware thereof. As for the wicked, they will have no helpers.     وماانفقتم من نفقة او نذرتم من نذر فان الله يعلمه وماللظالمين من انصار     wmaanfqtm mn nfq+ aw nXrtm mn nXr fan allh y`lmh wmallZalmyn mn anSar
 
271.  *     If ye disclose (acts of) charity, even so it is well, but if ye conceal them, and make them reach those (really) in need, that is best for you: It will remove from you some of your (stains of) evil. And Allah is well acquainted with what ye do.     If you declare your charities, they are still good. But if you keep them anonymous, and give them to the poor, it is better for you, and remits more of your sins. GOD is fully Cognizant of everything you do.     ان تبدوا الصدقات فنعما هي وان تخفوها وتؤتوها الفقراء فهو خيرلكم ويكفر عنكم من سيئاتكم والله بما تعملون خبير     an tbdwa alSdqat fn`ma hy wan tKfwha wtWtwha alfqra' fhw Kyrlkm wykfr `nkm mn syYatkm wallh bma t`mlwn Kbyr
 
272.  *     It is not required of thee (O Messenger., to set them on the right path, but Allah sets on the right path whom He pleaseth. Whatever of good ye give benefits your own souls, and ye shall only do so seeking the "Face" of Allah. Whatever good ye give, shall be rendered back to you, and ye shall not Be dealt with unjustly.     You are not responsible for guiding anyone. GOD is the only one who guides whoever chooses (to be guided). Any charity you give is for your own good. Any charity you give shall be for the sake of GOD. Any charity you give will be repaid to you, without the least injustice.     ليس عليك هداهم ولكن الله يهدي من يشاء وماتنفقوا من خير فلانفسكم وماتنفقون الا ابتغاء وجه الله وماتنفقوا من خير يوف اليكم وانتم لاتظلمون     lys `lyk hdahm wlkn allh yhdy mn y$a' wmatnfqwa mn Kyr flanfskm wmatnfqwn ala abtGa' wjh allh wmatnfqwa mn Kyr ywf alykm wantm latZlmwn
 
273.  *     (Charity is) for those in need, who, in Allah's cause are restricted (from travel), and cannot move about in the land, seeking (For trade or work): the ignorant man thinks, because of their modesty, that they are free from want. Thou shalt know them by their (Unfailing) mark: They beg not importunately from all the sundry. And whatever of good ye give, be assured Allah knoweth it well.     Charity shall go to the poor who are suffering in the cause of GOD, and cannot emigrate. The unaware may think that they are rich, due to their dignity. But you can recognize them by certain signs; they never beg from the people persistently. Whatever charity you give, GOD is fully aware thereof.     للفقراء الذين احصروا في سبيل الله لايستطيعون ضربا في الارض يحسبهم الجاهل اغنياء من التعفف تعرفهم بسيماهم لايسئلون الناس الحافا وماتنفقوا من خير فان الله به عليم     llfqra' alXyn aHSrwa fy sbyl allh laystTy`wn Drba fy alarD yHsbhm aljahl aGnya' mn alt`ff t`rfhm bsymahm laysYlwn alnas alHafa wmatnfqwa mn Kyr fan allh bh `lym
 
274.  *     Those who (in charity) spend of their goods by night and by day, in secret and in public, have their reward with their Lord: on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.     Those who give to charity night and day, secretly and publicly, receive their recompense from their Lord; they will have nothing to fear, nor will they grieve.     الذين ينفقون اموالهم بالليل والنهار سرا وعلانية فلهم اجرهم عند ربهم ولاخوف عليهم ولاهم يحزنون     alXyn ynfqwn amwalhm ballyl walnhar sra w`lany+ flhm ajrhm `nd rbhm wlaKwf `lyhm wlahm yHznwn
 
275.  *     Those who devour usury will not stand except as stand one whom the Evil one by his touch Hath driven to madness. That is because they say: "Trade is like usury," but Allah hath permitted trade and forbidden usury. Those who after receiving direction from their Lord, desist, shall be pardoned for the past; their case is for Allah (to judge); but those who repeat (The offence) are companions of the Fire: They will abide therein (for ever).     Those who charge usury are in the same position as those controlled by the devil's influence. This is because they claim that usury is the same as commerce. However, GOD permits commerce, and prohibits usury. Thus, whoever heeds this commandment from his Lord, and refrains from usury, he may keep his past earnings, and his judgment rests with GOD. As for those who persist in usury, they incur Hell, wherein they abide forever.     الذين ياكلون الربا لايقومون الا كما يقوم الذي يتخبطه الشيطان من المس ذلك بانهم قالوا انما البيع مثل الربا واحل الله البيع وحرم الربا فمن جاءه موعظة من ربه فانتهى فله ماسلف وامره الى الله ومن عاد فاولئك اصحاب النار هم فيها خالدون     alXyn yaklwn alrba layqwmwn ala kma yqwm alXy ytKbTh al$yTan mn alms Xlk banhm qalwa anma alby` mxl alrba waHl allh alby` wHrm alrba fmn ja'h mw`Z+ mn rbh fanthi flh maslf wamrh ali allh wmn `ad fawlYk aSHab alnar hm fyha Kaldwn
 
276.  *     Allah will deprive usury of all blessing, but will give increase for deeds of charity: For He loveth not creatures ungrateful and wicked.     GOD condemns usury, and blesses charities. GOD dislikes every disbeliever, guilty.     يمحق الله الربا ويربي الصدقات والله لايحب كل كفار اثيم     ymHq allh alrba wyrby alSdqat wallh layHb kl kfar axym
 
277.  *     Those who believe, and do deeds of righteousness, and establish regular prayers and regular charity, will have their reward with their Lord: on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.     Those who believe and lead a righteous life, and observe the Contact Prayers (Salat), and give the obligatory charity (Zakat), they receive their recompense from their Lord; they will have nothing to fear, nor will they grieve.     ان الذين امنوا وعملوا الصالحات واقاموا الصلاة واتوا الزكاة لهم اجرهم عند ربهم ولاخوف عليهم ولاهم يحزنون     an alXyn amnwa w`mlwa alSalHat waqamwa alSla+ watwa alzka+ lhm ajrhm `nd rbhm wlaKwf `lyhm wlahm yHznwn
 
278.  *     O ye who believe! Fear Allah, and give up what remains of your demand for usury, if ye are indeed believers.     O you who believe, you shall observe GOD and refrain from all kinds of usury, if you are believers.     ياايها الذين امنوا اتقوا الله وذروا مابقي من الربا ان كنتم مؤمنين     yaayha alXyn amnwa atqwa allh wXrwa mabqy mn alrba an kntm mWmnyn
 
279.  *     If ye do it not, Take notice of war from Allah and His Messenger. But if ye turn back, ye shall have your capital sums: Deal not unjustly, and ye shall not be dealt with unjustly.     If you do not, then expect a war from GOD and His messenger. But if you repent, you may keep your capitals, without inflicting injustice, or incurring injustice.     فان لم تفعلوا فاذنوا بحرب من الله ورسوله وان تبتم فلكم رؤوس اموالكم لاتظلمون ولاتظلمون     fan lm tf`lwa faXnwa bHrb mn allh wrswlh wan tbtm flkm rWws amwalkm latZlmwn wlatZlmwn
 
280.  *     If the debtor is in a difficulty, grant him time Till it is easy for him to repay. But if ye remit it by way of charity, that is best for you if ye only knew.     If the debtor is unable to pay, wait for a better time. If you give up the loan as a charity, it would be better for you, if you only knew.     وان كان ذو عسرة فنظرة الى ميسرة وان تصدقوا خير لكم ان كنتم تعلمون     wan kan Xw `sr+ fnZr+ ali mysr+ wan tSdqwa Kyr lkm an kntm t`lmwn
 
281.  *     And fear the Day when ye shall be brought back to Allah. Then shall every soul be paid what it earned, and none shall be dealt with unjustly.     Beware of the day when you are returned to GOD, and every soul is paid for everything it had done, without the least injustice.     واتقوا يوما ترجعون فيه الى الله ثم توفى كل نفس ماكسبت وهم لايظلمون     watqwa ywma trj`wn fyh ali allh xm twfi kl nfs maksbt whm layZlmwn
 
282.  *     O ye who believe! When ye deal with each other, in transactions involving future obligations in a fixed period of time, reduce them to writing Let a scribe write down faithfully as between the parties: let not the scribe refuse to write: as Allah Has taught him, so let him write. Let him who incurs the liability dictate, but let him fear His Lord Allah, and not diminish aught of what he owes. If they party liable is mentally deficient, or weak, or unable Himself to dictate, Let his guardian dictate faithfully, and get two witnesses, out of your own men, and if there are not two men, then a man and two women, such as ye choose, for witnesses, so that if one of them errs, the other can remind her. The witnesses should not refuse when they are called on (For evidence). Disdain not to reduce to writing (your contract) for a future period, whether it be small or big: it is juster in the sight of Allah, More suitable as evidence, and more convenient to prevent doubts among yourselves but if it be a transaction which ye carry out on the spot among yourselves, there is no blame on you if ye reduce it not to writing. But take witness whenever ye make a commercial contract; and let neither scribe nor witness suffer harm. If ye do (such harm), it would be wickedness in you. So fear Allah. For it is Good that teaches you. And Allah is well acquainted with all things. If ye are on a journey, and cannot find a scribe, a pledge with possession (may serve the purpose). And if one of you deposits a thing on trust with another, let the trustee (faithfully) discharge his trust, and let him Fear his Lord conceal not evidence; for whoever conceals it,--his heart is tainted with sin. And Allah knoweth all that ye do.     O you who believe, when you transact a loan for any period, you shall write it down. An impartial scribe shall do the writing. No scribe shall refuse to perform this service, according to GOD's teachings. He shall write, while the debtor dictates the terms. He shall observe GOD his Lord and never cheat. If the debtor is mentally incapable, or helpless, or cannot dictate, his guardian shall dictate equitably. Two men shall serve as witnesses; if not two men, then a man and two women whose testimony is acceptable to all. Thus, if one woman becomes biased, the other will remind her. It is the obligation of the witnesses to testify when called upon to do so. Do not tire of writing the details, no matter how long, including the time of repayment. This is equitable in the sight of GOD, assures better witnessing, and eliminates any doubts you may have. Business transactions that you execute on the spot need not be recorded, but have them witnessed. No scribe or witness shall be harmed on account of his services. If you harm them, it would be wickedness on your part. You shall observe GOD, and GOD will teach you. GOD is Omniscient.     ياايها الذين امنوا اذا تداينتم بدين الى اجل مسمى فاكتبوه وليكتب بينكم كاتب بالعدل ولاياب كاتب ان يكتب كما علمه الله فليكتب وليملل الذي عليه الحق وليتق الله ربه ولايبخس منه شيئا فان كان الذي عليه الحق سفيها او ضعيفا او لايستطيع ان يمل هو فليملل وليه  بالعدل واستشهدوا شهيدين من رجالكم فان لم يكونا رجلين فرجل وامراتان ممن ترضون من الشهداء ان تضل احداهما فتذكر احداهما الاخرى ولاياب الشهداء اذا مادعوا ولاتسأموا ان تكتبوه صغيرا او كبيرا الى اجله ذلكم اقسط عند الله واقوم للشهادة وادنى الا ترتابوا الا ان تكون  تجارة حاضرة تديرونها بينكم فليس عليكم جناح الا تكتبوها واشهدوا اذا تبايعتم ولايضار كاتب ولاشهيد وان تفعلوا فانه فسوق بكم واتقوا الله ويعلمكم الله والله بكل شئ عليم     yaayha alXyn amnwa aXa tdayntm bdyn ali ajl msmi faktbwh wlyktb bynkm katb bal`dl wlayab katb an yktb kma `lmh allh flyktb wlymll alXy `lyh alHq wlytq allh rbh wlaybKs mnh $yYa fan kan alXy `lyh alHq sfyha aw D`yfa aw laystTy` an yml hw flymll wlyh  bal`dl wast$hdwa $hydyn mn rjalkm fan lm ykwna rjlyn frjl wamratan mmn trDwn mn al$hda' an tDl aHdahma ftXkr aHdahma alaKri wlayab al$hda' aXa mad`wa wlatsAmwa an tktbwh SGyra aw kbyra ali ajlh Xlkm aqsT `nd allh waqwm ll$had+ wadni ala trtabwa ala an tkwn  tjar+ HaDr+ tdyrwnha bynkm flys `lykm jnaH ala tktbwha wa$hdwa aXa tbay`tm wlayDar katb wla$hyd wan tf`lwa fanh fswq bkm watqwa allh wy`lmkm allh wallh bkl $Y `lym
 
283.  *     If ye are on a journey, and cannot find a scribe, a pledge with possession (may serve the purpose). And if one of you deposits a thing on trust with another, Let the trustee (Faithfully) discharge His trust, and let him fear his Lord. Conceal not evidence; for whoever conceals it,--His heart is tainted with sin. And Allah Knoweth all that ye do.     If you are traveling, and no scribe is available, a bond shall be posted to guarantee repayment. If one is trusted in this manner, he shall return the bond when due, and he shall observe GOD his Lord. Do not withhold any testimony by concealing what you had witnessed. Anyone who withholds a testimony is sinful at heart. GOD is fully aware of everything you do.     وان كنتم على سفر ولم تجدوا كاتبا فرهان مقبوضة فان امن بعضكم بعضا فليؤد الذي اؤتمن امانته وليتق الله ربه ولاتكتموا الشهادة ومن يكتمها فانه اثم قلبه والله بما تعملون عليم     wan kntm `li sfr wlm tjdwa katba frhan mqbwD+ fan amn b`Dkm b`Da flyWd alXy aWtmn amanth wlytq allh rbh wlatktmwa al$had+ wmn yktmha fanh axm qlbh wallh bma t`mlwn `lym
 
284.  *     To Allah belongeth all that is in the heavens and on earth. Whether ye show what is in your minds or conceal it, Allah Calleth you to account for it. He forgiveth whom He pleaseth, and punisheth whom He pleaseth, for Allah hath power over all things.     To GOD belongs everything in the heavens and the earth. Whether you declare your innermost thoughts, or keep them hidden, GOD holds you responsible for them. He forgives whomever He wills, and punishes whomever He wills. GOD is Omnipotent.     لله مافي السماوات ومافي الارض وان تبدوا مافي انفسكم او تخفوه يحاسبكم به الله فيغفر لمن يشاء ويعذب من يشاء والله على كل شئ قدير     llh mafy alsmawat wmafy alarD wan tbdwa mafy anfskm aw tKfwh yHasbkm bh allh fyGfr lmn y$a' wy`Xb mn y$a' wallh `li kl $Y qdyr
 
285.  *     The Messenger believeth in what hath been revealed to him from his Lord, as do the men of faith. Each one (of them) believeth in Allah, His angels, His books, and His apostles. "We make no distinction (they say) between one and another of His apostles." And they say: "We hear, and we obey: (We seek) Thy forgiveness, our Lord, and to Thee is the end of all journeys."     The messenger has believed in what was sent down to him from his Lord, and so did the believers. They believe in GOD, His angels, His scripture, and His messengers: "We make no distinction among any of His messengers." They say, "We hear, and we obey. Forgive us, our Lord. To You is the ultimate destiny."     امن الرسول بما انزل اليه من ربه والمؤمنون كل امن بالله وملائكته وكتبه ورسله لانفرق بين احد من رسله وقالوا سمعنا واطعنا غفرانك ربنا واليك المصير     amn alrswl bma anzl alyh mn rbh walmWmnwn kl amn ballh wmlaYkth wktbh wrslh lanfrq byn aHd mn rslh wqalwa sm`na waT`na Gfrank rbna walyk almSyr
 
286.  *     On no soul doth Allah Place a burden greater than it can bear. It gets every good that it earns, and it suffers every ill that it earns. (Pray:) "Our Lord! Condemn us not if we forget or fall into error; our Lord! Lay not on us a burden Like that which Thou didst lay on those before us; Our Lord! Lay not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Blot out our sins, and grant us forgiveness. Have mercy on us. Thou art our Protector; Help us against those who stand against faith."     GOD never burdens a soul beyond its means: to its credit is what it earns, and against it is what it commits. "Our Lord, do not condemn us if we forget or make mistakes. Our Lord, and protect us from blaspheming against You, like those before us have done. Our Lord, protect us from sinning until it becomes too late for us to repent. Pardon us and forgive us. You are our Lord and Master. Grant us victory over the disbelieving people."     لايكلف الله نفسا الا وسعها لها ماكسبت وعليها مااكتسبت ربنا لاتؤاخذنا ان نسينا او اخطانا ربنا ولاتحمل علينا اصرا كما حملته على الذين من قبلنا ربنا ولاتحملنا مالاطاقة لنا به واعف عنا واغفر لنا وارحمنا انت مولانا فانصرنا على القوم الكافرين     layklf allh nfsa ala ws`ha lha maksbt w`lyha maaktsbt rbna latWaKXna an nsyna aw aKTana rbna wlatHml `lyna aSra kma Hmlth `li alXyn mn qblna rbna wlatHmlna malaTaq+ lna bh wa`f `na waGfr lna warHmna ant mwlana fanSrna `li alqwm alkafryn
