Say (O
Muhammad SAW):
"Come, I will recite what your Lord has prohibited you from: Join
not anything in worship with Him; be good and dutiful to your parents;
kill not your children because of poverty - We provide sustenance
for you and for them; come not near to Al-Fawahish (shameful
sins, illegal sexual intercourse)
whether committed openly or secretly, and kill not anyone whom Allah
has forbidden, except for a just cause (according
to Islamic law).
This He has commanded you that you may understand. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
152. |
"And come not near
to the orphan's property, except to improve it, until he (or
she) attains
the age of full strength; and give full measure and full weight with
justice. We burden not any person, but that which he can bear. And
whenever you give your word (i.e.
judge between men or give evidence),
say the truth even if a near relative is concerned, and fulfill the
Covenant of Allah, This He commands you, that you may remember. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
153. |
"And verily, this
(i.e. Allah's Commandments
mentioned in the above two Verses 151 and 152)
is my Straight Path, so follow it, and follow not (other)
paths, for they will separate you away from His Path. This He has
ordained for you that you may become Al-Muttaqun (the
pious - see V.2:2)." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
154. |
Then, We gave Musa
(Moses)
the Book [the
Taurat (Torah)],
to complete (Our
Favour) upon
those who would do right, and explaining all things in detail and
a guidance and a mercy that they might believe in the meeting with
their Lord. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
155. |
And this is a blessed
Book (the Qur-an)
which We have sent down, so follow it and fear Allah (i.e.
do not disobey His Orders),
that you may receive mercy (i.e.
be saved from the torment of Hell). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 156. |
Lest you (pagan
Arabs) should
say: "The Book was sent down only to two sects before us
(the Jews and the Christians),
and for our part, we were in fact unaware of what they studied." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
157. |
Or lest you
(pagan Arabs)
should say: "If only the Book had been sent down to us, we would surely
have been better guided than they (Jews
and Christians)."
So now has come unto you a clear proof (the
Qur-an) from
your Lord, and a guidance and a mercy. Who then does more wrong than
one who rejects the Ayat (proofs,
evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.)
of Allah and turns away therefrom? We shall requite those who turn
away from Our Ayat with an evil torment, because of their turning
away (from them).

Vol. 8, Page 95] |

Do they then wait for
anything other than that the angels should come to them, or that your
Lord (Allah)
should come, or that some of the Signs of your Lord should come
(i.e. portents of the
Hour e.g., rising of the sun from the west)!
The day that some of the Signs of your Lord do come, no good will
it do to a person to believe then, if he believed not before, nor
earned good (by
performing deeds of righteousness)
through his Faith. Say: "Wait you! we (too)
are waiting." Verily, those who divide their religion and break
up into sects (all
kinds of religious sects),
you (O Muhammad
SAW) have no
concern in them in the least. Their affair is only with Allah, Who
then will tell them what they used to do. |

Whoever brings a good
deed (Islamic
Monotheism and deeds of obedience to Allah and His Messenger SAW)
shall have ten times the like thereof to his credit, and whoever brings
an evil deed (polytheism,
disbelief, hypocrisy, and deeds of disobedience to Allah and His Messenger
SAW) shall have
only the recompense of the like thereof, and they will not be wronged. |

Say (O
Muhammad SAW):
"Truly, my Lord has guided me to a Straight Path, a right religion,
the religion of Ibrahim (Abraham),
Hanifa [i.e.
the true Islamic Monotheism - to believe in One God (Allah i.e. to
worship none but Allah, Alone)]
and he was not of Al-Mushrikun (see
V.2:105)." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 162. |
Say (O
Muhammad SAW):
"Verily, my Salat (prayer),
my sacrifice, my living, and my dying are for Allah, the Lord of the
'Alamin (mankind,
jinn and all that exists). |
|
|
|

"He has no partner.
And of this I have been commanded, and I am the first of the Muslims." |

Say: "Shall I seek
a lord other than Allah, while He is the Lord of all things? No person
earns any (sin)
except against himself (only),
and no bearer of burdens shall bear the burden of another. Then unto
your Lord is your return, so He will tell you that wherein you have
been differing." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
165. |
And it is He Who has
made you generations coming after generations, replacing each other
on the earth. And He has raised you in ranks, some above others that
He may try you in that which He has bestowed on you. Surely your Lord
is Swift in retribution, and certainly He is OftForgiving, Most Merciful. |
