And recall what time
ye said: O Musa! we shall by no means bear patiently with one food,
wherefore supplicate for us unto thy Lord that He bring forth for
us of that which the earth groweth, of its vegetables, and its cucumbers,
and its Wheat, and its lentils, and its onions. He Said: would ye
take in exchange that which is mean for that which is better! Get
ye down into a City, as verily therein is for you that which ye ask
for. And stuck upon them were abjection and poverty. And they drew
on themselves indignation from Allah. This, because they were ever
disbelieving in the signs of Allah and slaying the prophets without
justice. This, because they disobeyed and were ever trespassing. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
62. |
Verily those who believe,
and those who are Judaised, and the Nazarenes, and the Sabians, -
whosoever, believeth in Allah and the Last Day and worketh righteously,
these! unto them shall be their hire with their Lord, no feal shall
come on them nor shall they grieve. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
63. |
And recall what time
We took your bond, and raised over you the Tur saying: hold fast to
that which We have vouchsafed unto you, and remember that which is
therein, that haply ye may become God-fearing. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
64. |
Then ye turned away
there after; so had not the grace of Allah been unto you and His mercy,
ye had surely become of the losers. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
65. |
And assuredly ye know
of those of you who trespassed in the matter of the Sabbath, wherefore
We said unto them: be ye apes despised. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 66. |
And We made it a deterrent
unto those of their day and those after them, and an exhortation unto
the God-fearing. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
67. |
And recall what time
Musa said unto his people: verily Allah commandeth you that ye slaughter
a cow. They said: makest thou a jest of us? He said take refuge with
Allah that I should be of the ignorant. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
68. |
They said: supplicate
for us unto thy Lord that He make manifest unto us whatever she should
be. He said: verily He saith, she should be a cow neither old nor
young, but middle-aged betwixt that; do then as ye are commanded. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 69. |
They said: supplicate
for us unto thy Lord that He make manifest unto us whatever her colour
should be. He said: verily He saith, she should be a yellow cow the
colour whereof is deepest, delighting the beholders. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 70. |
They said supplicate
for us unto thy Lord that He make manifest unto us whatever she should
be, for verily the cow hath become dubious unto us and verily we,
if God will, shall beguided. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
71. |
He said: verily He saith,
verify she should be a cow unyoked, not broken to till the ground
or to water the field, whole, and without blemish in her. They said:
now hast thou brought the truth. Then they slaughtered her, and they
were wellnigh not doing it. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
72. |
And recall what time
ye slew a person, then quarrelled among yourselves respecting it,
and Allah was to bring out that which ye were hiding. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 73. |
Wherefore We said: smite
him with part of her. Thus will Allah quicken the dead and He sheweth
you His signs that haply ye may under stand. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
74. |
Then your hearts hardened
thereafter, so they are as stones or stronger in hardness: and verily
of stones there are some from which gush forth rivers, and verily
there are of them some that cleave asunder and water issueth therefrom,
and verily there are of them some that fall down in awe of Allah:
and Allah is not neglectful of that which ye work. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
75. |
Covet ye then that they
would believe for you whereas surely a Party of them hath been hearing
the Word of Allah and then reverting it after they have understood
it, While they know. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
76. |
And when they meet those
who believe they say: we believe; and when some of them are alone
with some others they say speak ye unto them of that which God hath
opened unto you so that they may argue therewith against you before
your Lord? understand then ye not? |
|
|
|
|
|
| 77. |
Know they not that Allah
knoweth that which they hide and that which they make known? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
78. |
And of them are unlettered
ones who know not the Book but vain desires; and they do but conjecture. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 79. |
Woe then unto those
who write out the Book with their hands and say thereafter: this is
from God, that they may barter it for a small price. Woe then unto
them for that which thei hands had written; and woe unto them for
that which they earn therwith. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 80. |
And they say: Fire shall
touch us not save for a few numbered days. Say thou: have ye taken
a covenant with Allah, so that Allah shall not fail His covenant?
or fabricate ye against Allah that which ye know not |
|
|
|
|
|
|
81. |
O Yea! whosoever earnoth
vice and his sin hath encompassed him, those shall be the fellows
of the Fire, as abiders therein. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
82. |
And those who believe
and do righteous works, --those shall be the fellows of the Garden,
as abiders therein. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 83. |
And recall what time
We took a bond with the Children of Israel saying: worship not any
god save Allah, and unto parents show kindness, and also unto the
kindred and the orphans and the poor, and speak kindly unto mankind,
and establish prayer and give the poor rate. Then ye turned away,
save a few of you, and ye are backsliders. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
84. |
And recall what time
We took a bond with you: saying: ye shall not shed your blood, nor
drive one anot her from your homes; then ye ratified it and ye Were
witnesses |
|
|
|
|
|
|
85. |
Thereafter it is ye
the very ones who slay each other and drive a party of you from their
homes, and back up against them with guilt and iniquity; and if they
come unto you as captives, ye ransom them, whereas forbidden unto
you was their driving away itself. Believe ye then in part of the
Book and disbelieve in part? What, then, is to be the meed of those
of you who do that, save humiliation in the life of the world? And
on the Day of Judgement they shall be brought back to the severest
torment, and Allah is not neglectful of that which ye work. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
86. |
These are they who have
purchased the life of the world for the Hereafter; wherefore the torment
shall not be lightened for them, nor shall they be succoured. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
87. |
And assuredly We vouchsafed
unto Musa the Book and We followed him up by the apostles after him,
and unto 'lsa, son of Maryam, We vouchsafed evidences and aided him
with the Holy Spirit. Then so often as there came unto you an apostle
with that which your souls desired not, ye waxed stiff necked; and
some ye belied and some ye slew? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
88. |
And they say: our hearts
are uncircumcised. Nay! Allah hath cursed them because of their infidelity:
little wherefore it is they believe. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
89. |
And when there came
unto them a Book from before Allah confirming that which was with
them, --and afore they were entreating God for victory over these
who disbelieved, -then when there came unto them that which they recognised.
they disbelieved therein wherefore Allah's curse be on the infidels! |
|
|
|
|
|
| 90. |
Vile is that for which
they have bartered their souls, that they should disbelieve that which
Allah hath sent down, out of envy that Allah should reveal, out of
His grace, unto whosoever of His bond men He listeth. Wherefore they
have drawn upon themselves wrath upon wrath, and unto the infidel
shall be a torment ignominious. |
