And (remember) when you said, "O
Musa (Moses)!
We cannot endure one kind of food. So invoke your Lord for us to bring
forth for us of what the earth grows, its herbs, its cucumbers, its
Fum (wheat or garlic),
its lentils and its onions." He said, "Would you exchange that which
is better for that which is lower? Go you down to any town and you
shall find what you want!" And they were covered with humiliation
and misery, and they drew on themselves the Wrath of Allah.
That was because they used to disbelieve the Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) of Allah and killed the Prophets wrongfully. That was because
they disobeyed and used to transgress the bounds (in their disobedience to Allah, i.e. commit crimes and sins). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 62. |
Verily! Those who believe
and those who are Jews and Christians, and Sabians, whoever believes
in Allah and the Last Day and do righteous good deeds shall
have their reward with their Lord, on them shall be no fear, nor shall
they grieve. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 63. |
And (O Children of Israel, remember) when We took your covenant and We raised above you the Mount (saying):
"Hold fast to that which We have given you, and remember that which
is therein so that you may become Al-Muttaqun (the pious - see V.2:2). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 64. |
Then after that you
turned away. Had it not been for the Grace and Mercy of Allah
upon you, indeed you would have been among the losers. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 65. |
And indeed you
knew those amongst you who transgressed in the matter of the Sabbath (i.e. Saturday).
We said to them: "Be you monkeys, despised and rejected." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 66. |
So We made this punishment
an example to their own and to succeeding generations and a lesson
to those who are Al-Muttaqun. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 67. |
And (remember) when Musa (Moses) said to his people: "Verily, Allah commands you that you slaughter
a cow." They said, "Do you make fun of us?" He said, "I take Allah's
Refuge from being among Al-Jahilun (the ignorant or the foolish)." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 68. |
They said, "Call
upon your Lord for us that He may make plain to us what it is!" He
said, "He says, 'Verily, it is a cow neither too old nor too young,
but (it is) between the two conditions', so do what you are commanded." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 69. |
They said, "Call upon
your Lord for us to make plain to us its colour." He said, "He says,
'It is a yellow cow, bright in its colour, pleasing the beholders.'
" |
|
|
|
|
|
| 70. |
They said, "Call upon
your Lord for us to make plain to us what it is. Verily to us all
cows are alike. And surely, if Allah wills, we will be guided." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 71. |
He [Musa (Moses)] said, "He says, 'It
is a cow neither trained to till the soil nor water the fields, sound,
having no other colour except bright yellow.' " They said, "Now you
have brought the truth." So they slaughtered it though they were near
to not doing it. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 72. |
And (remember) when you killed a man and fell into dispute among yourselves as to
the crime. But Allah brought forth that which you were hiding. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 73. |
So We said: "Strike
him (the dead man) with a piece of it (the cow)."
Thus Allah brings the dead to life and shows you His Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses,
lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) so that you may understand. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 74. |
Then, after that,
your hearts were hardened and became as stones or even worse in hardness.
And indeed, there are stones out of which rivers gush forth, and indeed,
there are of them (stones) which split asunder so that water flows from them, and indeed, there
are of them (stones) which fall down for fear of Allah. And Allah is not
unaware of what you do. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 75. |
Do you (faithful believers) covet that
they will believe in your religion in spite of the fact that a party
of them (Jewish rabbis) used to hear the Word of Allah [the Taurat (Torah)], then they
used to change it knowingly after they understood it? |
|
|
|
|
|
| 76. |
And when they (Jews) meet those who believe (Muslims),
they say, "We believe", but when they meet one another in private,
they say, "Shall you (Jews) tell them (Muslims) what Allah has revealed to you [Jews, about the description and the qualities of Prophet Muhammad
Peace be upon him , that which are written in the Taurat (Torah)],
that they (Muslims) may argue with you (Jews) about it before your Lord?" Have you (Jews) then no understanding? |
|
|
|
|
|
| 77. |
Know they (Jews) not that Allah
knows what they conceal and what they reveal? |
|
|
|
|
|
| 78. |
And there are
among them (Jews) unlettered people, who know not the Book, but they trust upon false
desires and they but guess. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 79. |
Then woe to those who
write the Book with their own hands and then say, "This is from Allah,"
to purchase with it a little price! Woe to them for what their hands
have written and woe to them for that they earn thereby. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 80. |
And they (Jews) say, "The Fire (i.e. Hell-fire on the Day of Resurrection) shall not touch us but for a few numbered days." Say (O Muhammad Peace be upon him to them):
"Have you taken a covenant from Allah, so that Allah will not
break His Covenant? Or is it that you say of Allah what you
know not?" |
|
|
|
|
|
| 81. |
Yes! Whosoever
earns evil and his sin has surrounded him, they are dwellers of the
Fire (i.e. Hell);
they will dwell therein forever. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 82. |
And those who
believe (in the Oneness of Allah
- Islamic Monotheism) and do
righteous good deeds, they are dwellers of Paradise, they will dwell
therein forever. (See V.2:257) |
|
|
|
|
|
| 83. |
And (remember) when We took a covenant
from the Children of Israel, (saying):
Worship none but Allah (Alone) and be dutiful and good
to parents, and to kindred, and to orphans and Al-Masakin (the poor), [Tafsir
At-Tabari, Vol. 10, Page 158 (Verse 9:60)] and speak good to people [i.e. enjoin righteousness and forbid evil,
and say the truth about Muhammad Peace be upon him ], and perform
As-Salat (Iqamat-as-Salat),
and give Zakat. Then you slid back, except a few of you, while
you are backsliders. (Tafsir
Al-Qurtubi, Vol. 2, Page 392). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 84. |
And (remember) when We took your
covenant (saying):
Shed not the blood of your people, nor turn out your own people from
their dwellings. Then, (this) you ratified and (to this) you bear witness. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 85. |
After this, it
is you who kill one another and drive out a party of you from their
homes, assist (their enemies) against them, in sin and transgression. And if they come to you as
captives, you ransom them, although their expulsion was forbidden
to you. Then do you believe in a part of the Scripture and reject
the rest? Then what is the recompense of those who do so among you,
except disgrace in the life of this world, and on the Day of Resurrection
they shall be consigned to the most grievous torment. And Allah
is not unaware of what you do. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 86. |
Those are they who have
bought the life of this world at the price of the Hereafter. Their
torment shall not be lightened nor shall they be helped. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 87. |
And indeed, We
gave Musa (Moses) the Book and followed him up with a succession of Messengers. And
We gave 'Isa (Jesus),
the son of Maryam (Mary),
clear signs and supported him with Ruh-ul-Quddus [Jibrael
(Gabriel)]. Is it that whenever
there came to you a Messenger with what you yourselves desired not,
you grew arrogant? Some, you disbelieved and some, you killed. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 88. |
And they say,
"Our hearts are wrapped (i.e.
do not hear or understand Allah's Word)."
Nay, Allah has cursed them for their disbelief, so little is
that which they believe. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 89. |
And when there
came to them (the Jews),
a Book (this Qur-an) from Allah confirming
what is with them [the Taurat
(Torah) and the Injil (Gospel)],
although aforetime they had invoked Allah (for coming of Muhammad Peace be upon him ) in order to gain victory over those who disbelieved, then when there
came to them that which they had recognised, they disbelieved in it.
So let the Curse of Allah be on the disbelievers. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 90. |
How bad is that
for which they have sold their own selves, that they should disbelieve
in that which Allah has revealed (the Qur-an), grudging
that Allah should reveal of His Grace unto whom He wills of
His slaves. So they have drawn on themselves wrath upon wrath. And
for the disbelievers, there is disgracing torment. |
