As to those who reject Faith, and die
rejecting - never would be accepted from any such as much gold as
the earth contains, though they should offer it for ransom. For such
is (in store)
a penalty grievous, and they will find no helpers. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
92. |
By no means shall you attain righteousness
unless you give (freely)
of that which you love; and whatever you give, of a truth Allah knows
it well. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
93. |
All food was lawful to the children
of Israel except what Israel, made unlawful for itself, before the
Law (of Moses)
was revealed. Say: "Bring you the Law and study it, if you be
men of truth." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
94. |
If any, after this, invent a lie and
attribute it to Allah, they are indeed unjust wrong-doers. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
95. |
Say: "Allah speaks the Truth:
follow the religion of Abraham, the sane in faith; he was not of the
pagans." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 96. |
The first House (of
worship) appointed for men was
that at Bakka; full of blessing and of guidance for all kinds of beings: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
97. |
In it are Signs manifest; (for
example) the Station of Abraham;
whoever enters it attains security; pilgrimage thereto is a duty men
owe to Allah - those who can afford the journey; but if any deny faith,
Allah stands not in need of any of his creatures. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
98. |
Say: "O people of the Book! why
reject you the Signs of Allah, when Allah is Himself witness to all
you do? |
|
|
|
|
|
| 99. |
Say: "O you People of the Book!
why obstruct you those who believe, from the Path of Allah, seeking
to make it crooked, while you were yourselves witnesses (to
Allah's Covenant)? But Allah
is not unmindful of all that you do." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 100. |
O you who believe! if you listen to
a faction among the People of the Book, they would (indeed)
render you apostates after you have believed! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
101. |
And how would you deny Faith while
unto you are rehearsed the Signs of Allah, and among you lives the
Messenger? Whoever holds firmly to Allah will be shown a way that
is straight. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 102. |
O you who believe! fear Allah as He
should be feared, and die not except in a state of Islam. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 103. |
And hold fast, all together, by the
Rope which Allah (stretches
out for you), and be not divided
among yourselves; and remember with gratitude Allah's favor on you;
for you were enemies and He joined your hearts in love, so that by
His Grace, you became brethren; and you were on the brink of the Pit
of Fire, and He saved you from it. Thus does Allah make his Signs
clear to you: that you may be guided. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
104. |
Let there arise out of you a band of
people inviting to all that is good, enjoining what is right, and
forbidding what is wrong: they are the ones to attain felicity. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
105. |
Be not like those who are divided amongst
themselves and fall into disputations after receiving Clear Signs;
for them is a dreadful Penalty - |
|
|
|
|
|
| 106. |
On the day when some faces will be
(lit up with)
white, and some faces will be (in the gloom of)
black: to those whose faces will be black, (will
be said): "Did you reject
Faith after accepting it? Taste then the Penalty for rejecting Faith. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 107. |
But those whose faces will be
(lit with)
white - they will be in (the
light of) Allah's Mercy; therein
to dwell (forever). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 108. |
These are the Signs of Allah: We rehearse
them to you in Truth; and Allah means no injustice to any of His creatures. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 109. |
To Allah belongs all that is in the
heavens and on earth; to Him do all questions go back (for
decision). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 110. |
You are the best of peoples, evolved
for mankind, enjoining what is right, forbidding what is wrong, and
believing in Allah. If only the People of the Book had faith, it were
best for them: among them are some who have faith, but most of them
are perverted transgressors. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 111. |
They will do you no harm, barring a
trifling annoyance; if they come out to fight you, they will show
you their backs, and no help shall they get. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 112. |
Shame is pitched over them
(like a tent)
wherever they are found, except when under a covenant (of
protection) from Allah and from
men; they draw on themselves wrath from Allah, and pitched over them
is (the tent of)
destitution. This because they rejected the Signs of Allah, and slew
the prophets in defiance of right; this because they rebelled and
transgressed beyond bounds. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 113. |
Not all of them are alike: of the People
of the book are a portion that stand (for
the right); they rehearse the
signs of Allah all night long, and then prostrate themselves in adoration. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 114. |
They believe in Allah and the Last
Day; they enjoin what is right, and forbid what is wrong; and they
(hasten in emulation)
in (all)
good works: they are in the ranks of the righteous. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 115. |
Of the good that they do, nothing will
be rejected of them; for Allah knows well those that do right. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 116. |
Those who reject Faith - neither their
possessions nor their (numerous)
progeny will avail them aught against Allah: they will be companions
of the Fire - dwelling therein
(forever). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 117. |
What they spend in the life of this
(material)
world may be likened to a Wind which brings a nipping frost: it strikes
and destroys the harvest of men who have wronged their own souls;
it is not Allah that has wronged them, but they wrong themselves. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 118. |
O you who believe! take not into your
intimacy those outside your ranks: they will not fail to corrupt you.
They only desire your ruin: rank hatred has already appeared from
their mouths: what their hearts conceal is far worse. We have made
plain to you the Signs, if you have wisdom. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 119. |
If you fear a breach between them twain,
appoint (two)
arbiters, one from his family, and the other from hers; if they wish
for peace, Allah will cause their reconciliation: for Allah has full
knowledge, and is acquainted with all things. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 120. |
If aught that is good befalls you,
it grieves them; but if some misfortune overtakes you, they rejoice
at it. But if you are constant and do right, not the least harm will
their cunning do to you; for Allah compasses round about all that
they do. |
