O you who believe! fulfill
(all)
obligations. Lawful unto you
(for food) are all four-footed
animals with the exceptions named: but animals of the chase are forbidden
while you are in the Sacred Precincts or in pilgrim garb: for Allah
does command according to His Will and Plan. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 2. |
O you who believe! violate not the
sanctity of the Symbols of Allah, nor of the Sacred Month, nor of
the animals brought for sacrifice, nor the garlands that mark out
such animals, nor the people resorting to the Sacred House, seeking
of the bounty and good pleasure of their Lord. But when you are clear
of the Sacred Precincts and of pilgrim garb, you may hunt and let
not the hatred of some people in (once)
shutting you out of the Sacred Mosque lead you to transgression
(and hostility on your part).
Help you one another in righteousness and piety, but help you not
one another in sin and rancor: fear Allah: for Allah is strict in
punishment. |
|

Forbidden to you (for
food) are: dead meat, blood,
the flesh of swine, and that on which has been invoked the name of
other than Allah, that which has been killed by strangling, or by
a violent blow, or by a headlong fall, or by being gored to death;
that which has been (partly)
eaten by a wild animal; unless you are able to slaughter it
(in due form);
that which is sacrificed on stone (altars);
(forbidden)
also is the division (of meat)
by raffling with arrows: that is impiety. This day have those who
reject faith given up all hope of your religion: yet fear them not
but fear Me. This day have I perfected your religion for you, completed
My favor upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion.
But if any forced by hunger, with no inclination to transgression,
Allah is indeed Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. |

They ask you what is lawful to them
(as food).
Say: Lawful unto you are (all)
things good and pure: and what you have taught your trained hunting
animals (to catch)
in the manner directed to you by Allah: eat what they catch for you,
but pronounce the name of Allah over it: and fear Allah; for Allah
is swift in taking account. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 5. |
This day are (all)
things good and pure made lawful unto you. The food of the People
of the Book is lawful unto you and yours is lawful unto them.
(Lawful unto you in marriage)
are (not only)
chaste women who are believers, but chaste women among the People
of the Book, revealed before your time - when you give them their
due dowers, and desire chastity, not lewdness, nor secret intrigues.
If anyone rejects faith, fruitless is his work, and in the Hereafter
he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (all
spiritual good). |

O you who believe! when you prepare
for prayer, wash your faces, and your hands (and
arms) to the elbows; rub your
heads (with water);
and (wash)
your feet to the ankles. If you are in a state of ceremonial impurity,
bathe your whole body. But if you are ill, or on a journey, or one
of you comes from offices of nature, or you have been in contact with
women, and you find no water, then take for yourselves clean sand
or earth, and rub therewith your faces and hands. Allah does not wish
to place you in a difficulty, but to make you clean, and to complete
His favor to you, that you may be grateful. |

And call in remembrance the favor of
Allah unto you, and His Covenant, which He ratified with you, when
you said: "We hear and we obey": and fear Allah, for Allah
knows well the secrets of your hearts. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
8. |
O you who believe! stand out firmly
for Allah, as witnesses to fair dealing, and let not the hatred of
others to you make you swerve to wrong and depart from justice. Be
just: that is next to Piety: and fear Allah for Allah is well-acquainted
with all that you do. |
|
|
|
|
|

To those who believe and do deeds of
righteousness has Allah promised forgiveness and a great reward. |

Those who reject faith and deny our
Signs will be Companions of Hell-fire. |

O you Those who reject faith and deny
our Signs will be Companions of Hell-fire. who believe! call in remembrance
the favor of Allah unto you when certain men formed the design to
stretch out their hands against you, but (Allah)
held back their hands from you: so fear Allah. And on Allah let Believers
put (all)
their trust. |
|

Allah did aforetime take a Covenant
from the Children of Israel, and We appointed twelve captains among
them and Allah said: "I am with you: if you (but)
establish regular Prayers, practice regular Charity, believe in My
messengers, honor and assist them, and loan to Allah a beautiful loan,
verily I will wipe out from you your evils, and admit you to Gardens
with rivers flowing beneath; but if any of you, after this, resists
faith, he has truly wandered from the path of rectitude." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 13. |
But because of their breach of their
Covenant, We cursed them, and made their hearts grow hard: they change
the words from their (right)
places and forget a good part of the Message that was sent them, nor
will you cease to find them - barring a few - ever bent on
(new)
deceits: but forgive them, and overlook (their
misdeeds): for Allah loves those
who are kind. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
14. |
From those, too, who call themselves
Christians, We did take a Covenant, but they forgot a good part of
the Message that was sent them: so We estranged them, with enmity
and hatred between the one and the other, to the Day of Judgment.
And soon will Allah show them what it is they have done. |
|

O People of the Book! there has come
to you Our Messenger, revealing to you much that you used to hide
in the Book, and passing over much
(that is now unnecessary): There
has come to you from Allah a
(new) light and a perspicuous
Book. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 16. |
Wherewith Allah guides all who seek
His good pleasure to ways of peace and safety, and leads them out
of darkness, by His Will, unto the light - guides them to a Path that
is Straight. |

In blasphemy indeed are those that
say that Allah is Christ the son of Mary. Say: "Who then has
the least power against Allah, if His Will were to destroy Christ
the son of Mary, his mother, and all - everyone that is on the earth?
For to Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, and
all that is between. He creates what He pleases. For Allah has power
over all things." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 18. |
(Both)
the Jews and the Christians say: "We are sons of Allah, and His
beloved." Say: "Why then does He punish you for your sins?
Nay, you are but men - of the men He has created: He forgives whom
He pleases, and He punishes whom He pleases: and to Allah belongs
the dominion of the heavens and the earth, and all that is between:
and unto Him is the final goal (of
all)." |

O people of the Book! now has come
unto you, making (things)
clear unto you, Our Messenger, after the break in (the
series of) Our messengers, lest
you should say: “There came unto us no bringer of glad tidings and
no warner (from evil)”;
but now has come unto you a bringer of glad tidings and a warner
(from evil):
and Allah has power over all things. |

Remember Moses said to his people:
"O my people! call in remembrance the favor of Allah unto you,
when He produced prophets among you, made you kings, and gave you
what He had not given to any other among the peoples. |
|
|
|
|
|
|

"O my people! enter the holy land
which Allah has assigned unto you, and turn not back ignominiously,
for then will you be overthrown, to your own ruin." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
22. |
They said: "O Moses! in this land
are a people of exceeding strength: never shall we enter it until
they leave it: if (once)
they leave, then shall we enter." |
|
|
|
|
|
| 23. |
(But)
among (their)
Allah-fearing men were two on whom Allah had bestowed His Grace: they
said: "Assault them at the
(proper) Gate: when once you
are in, victory will be yours. But on Allah put your trust if you
have faith." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
24. |
They said: O "Moses! while they
remain there, never shall we be able to enter, to the end of time.
Go you, and your Lord, and fight you two, while we sit here
(and watch)." |
|
|
|
|
|
|

He said: "O my Lord! I have power
only over myself and my bother: so separate us from this rebellious
people!" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
26. |
Allah said: "Therefore will the
land be out of their reach for forty years: in distraction will they
wander through the land: but sorrow you not over these rebellious
people." |
|

Recite to them the truth of the story
of the two sons of Adam. Behold! they each presented a sacrifice (to
Allah): it was accepted from
one, but not from the other. Said the latter: "Be sure I will
slay you." "Surely," said the former, "Allah does
accept of the sacrifice of those who are righteous. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 28. |
"If you do stretch your hand against
me, to slay me, it is not for me to stretch my hand against you to
slay you: for I do fear Allah, the Cherisher of the worlds. |
|
|
|
|
|
|

"For me, I intend to let you draw
on yourself my sin as well as your, for you will be among the Companions
of the Fire, and that is the reward of those who do wrong." |

The (selfish)
soul of the other led him to the murder of his brother: he murdered
him, and became (himself)
one of the lost ones. |
