Verily, those
who disbelieved, and died while they were disbelievers, the
(whole)
earth full of gold will not be accepted from anyone of them even if
they offered it as a ransom. For them is a painful torment and they
will have no helpers. |

By no means shall
you attain Al-Birr (piety,
righteousness- here it means Allah's Reward, i.e. Paradise),
unless you spend (in Allah's
Cause) of that which you love;
and whatever of good you spend, Allah knows it well. |

All food was lawful
to the Children of Israel, except what Israel made unlawful for himself
before the Tawrat (Torah)
was revealed. Say (O Muhammad
SAW): "Bring here the Tawrat
(Torah)
and recite it, if you are truthful." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
94. |
Then after that,
whosoever shall invent a lie against Allah, ... such shall
indeed be the Zalimun (disbelievers). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
95. |
Say
(O Muhammad SAW): "Allah
has spoken the truth; follow the religion of Ibrahim
(Abraham)
Hanifa
(Islamic Monotheism, i.e. he used to worship Allah Alone),
and he was not of Al-Mushrikun."
(See V.2:105) |
|
|

Verily, the first
House (of worship)
appointed for mankind was that at Bakkah (Makkah),
full of blessing, and a guidance for Al-'Alamin
(the mankind and jinn). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
97. |
In it are manifest
signs (for example),
the Maqam (place)
of Ibrahim (Abraham);
whosoever enters it, he attains security. And Hajj
(pilgrimage to Makkah) to the
House (Ka'bah)
is a duty that mankind owes to Allah, those who can afford
the expenses (for one's conveyance,
provision and residence); and
whoever disbelieves [i.e. denies Hajj
(pilgrimage to Makkah), then
he is a disbeliever of Allah], then Allah stands not
in need of any of the 'Alamin
(mankind and jinn and all that exists). |
|

Say: "O people
of the Scripture (Jews and Christians)!
Why do you reject the Ayat of Allah
(proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.)
while Allah is Witness to what you do?" |
|
|
|
|
|
| 99. |
Say: "O people
of the Scripture (Jews and Christians)!
Why do you stop those who have believed, from the Path of Allah,
seeking to make it seem crooked, while you
(yourselves) are witnesses [to
Muhammad SAW as a Messenger of Allah and Islam
(Allah's Religion, i.e. to worship
none but Him Alone)]? And Allah
is not unaware of what you do." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 100. |
O you who believe!
If you obey a group of those who were given the Scripture
(Jews and Christians), they would
(indeed)
render you disbelievers after you have believed! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
101. |
And how would
you disbelieve, while unto you are recited the Verses of Allah,
and among you is His Messenger
(Muhammad SAW)? And whoever
holds firmly to Allah,
(i.e. follows Islam Allah's Religion, and obeys all
that Allah has ordered, practically),
then he is indeed guided to the Right Path. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 102. |
O you who believe!
Fear Allah (by doing
all that He has ordered and by abstaining from all that He has forbidden)
as He should be feared. [Obey Him, be thankful to Him, and remember
Him always], and die not except in a state of Islam
(as Muslims) with complete submission
to Allah. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 103. |
And hold fast,
all of you together, to the Rope of Allah
(i.e. this Qur-an), and
be not divided among yourselves, and remember Allah's Favour
on you, for you were enemies one to another but He joined your hearts
together, so that, by His Grace, you became brethren
(in Islamic Faith), and you were
on the brink of a pit of Fire, and He saved you from it. Thus Allah
makes His Ayat
(proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.,)
clear to you, that you may be guided. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
104. |
Let there arise
out of you a group of people inviting to all that is good (Islam),
enjoining Al-Ma'ruf
(i.e. Islamic Monotheism and all that Islam orders one to do)
and forbidding Al-Munkar
(polytheism and disbelief and all that Islam has forbidden).
And it is they who are the successful. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
105. |
And be not as those
who divided and differed among themselves after the clear proofs had
come to them. It is they for whom there is an awful torment. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 106. |
On the Day (i.e.
the Day of Resurrection) when
some faces will become white and some faces will become black; as
for those whose faces will become black
(to them will be said): "Did
you reject Faith after accepting it? Then taste the torment
(in Hell) for rejecting Faith." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 107. |
And for those
whose faces will become white, they will be in Allah's Mercy
(Paradise),
therein they shall dwell forever. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 108. |
These are the
Verses of Allah: We recite them to you
(O Muhammad SAW) in truth,
and Allah wills no injustice to the 'Alamin
(mankind, jinn and all that exists). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 109. |
And to Allah
belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. And
all matters go back (for decision)
to Allah. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 110. |
You
[true believers in Islamic Monotheism, and real followers of Prophet
Muhammad SAW and his Sunnah]
are the best of peoples ever raised up for mankind; you enjoin Al-Ma'ruf
(i.e. Islamic Monotheism and
all that Islam has ordained)
and forbid Al-Munkar (polytheism,
disbelief and all that Islam has forbidden),
and you believe in Allah. And had the people of the Scripture
(Jews and Christians)
believed, it would have been better for them; among them are some
who have faith, but most of them are Al-Fasiqun
(disobedient to Allah - and rebellious against Allah's
Command). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 111. |
They will do you no
harm, barring a trifling annoyance; and if they fight against you,
they will show you their backs, and they will not be helped. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 112. |
Indignity is put
over them wherever they may be, except when under a covenant
(of protection) from Allah,
and from men; they have drawn on themselves the Wrath of Allah,
and destruction is put over them. This is because they disbelieved
in the Ayat (proofs,
evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.)
of Allah and killed the Prophets without right. This is because
they disobeyed (Allah)
and used to transgress beyond bounds (in
Allah's disobedience, crimes and sins). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 113. |
Not all of them are
alike; a party of the people of the Scripture stand for the right,
they recite the Verses of Allah during the hours of the night,
prostrating themselves in prayer. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 114. |
They believe in
Allah and the Last Day; they enjoin Al-Ma'ruf
(Islamic Monotheism, and following Prophet Muhammad SAW)
and forbid Al-Munkar (polytheism,
disbelief and opposing Prophet Muhammad SAW);
and they hasten in (all)
good works; and they are among the righteous. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 115. |
And whatever good
they do, nothing will be rejected of them; for Allah knows
well those who are Al-Muttaqun
(the pious - see V.2:2). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 116. |
Surely, those
who reject Faith (disbelieve
in Muhammad SAW as being Allah's Prophet and in all
that which he has brought from Allah),
neither their properties, nor their offspring will avail them aught
against Allah. They are the dwellers of the Fire, therein they
will abide. (Tafsir AtTabari). |
|
|
|
|
|
| 117. |
The likeness of
what they spend in this world is the likeness of a wind which is extremely
cold; it struck the harvest of a people who did wrong against themselves
and destroyed it, (i.e. the
good deed of a person is only accepted if he is a monotheist and believes
in all the Prophets of Allah, including Christ and Muhammad
SAW). Allah wronged them
not, but they wronged themselves. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 118. |
O you who believe!
Take not as (your)
Bitanah (advisors,
consultants, protectors, helpers, friends)
those outside your religion
(pagans, Jews, Christians, and hypocrites)
since they will not fail to do their best to corrupt you. They desire
to harm you severely. Hatred has already appeared from their mouths,
but what their breasts conceal is far worse. Indeed We have made plain
to you the Ayat
(proofs, evidences, verses) if
you understand. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 119. |
Lo! You are the
ones who love them but they love you not, and you believe in all the
Scriptures [i.e. you believe
in the Tawrat (Torah) and the Injil (Gospel), while
they disbelieve in your Book, the Qur-an].
And when they meet you, they say, "We believe". But when they are
alone, they bite the tips of their fingers at you in rage. Say: "Perish
in your rage. Certainly, Allah knows what is in the breasts
(all the secrets)." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 120. |
If a good befalls
you, it grieves them, but if some evil overtakes you, they rejoice
at it. But if you remain patient and become Al-Muttaqun
(the pious - see V.2:2), not
the least harm will their cunning do to you. Surely, Allah
surrounds all that they do. |
