Muslims invited: Quran translation of Chapter 3 & 4

Surah Al-i'Imran

· Alif. Lam Mim.
· Allah is. Beside Whom none is to be worshiped. Self-Living, Sustainer of others.
· He sent down to you this true Book, confirming preceding Books, and He sent down Tawrat and Injil before this.
· A for time guiding the people and sent down the criterion; No doubt, for those who denied the Signs of Allah is the severe torment and Allah the Mighty, is Possessor of the power of retribution.
· Nothing is hidden from Allah, neither in the earth nor in the heaven.
· It is He Who forms your shape in the wombs of the mothers as He pleases. Besides Whom none is to be worshiped the Dominant, the Wise.
· It is He Who sent down upon you the Book, in which some verses have clear meaning, they are the substance of the Book, and others are those, in the meaning of which there is doubt. Those in whose hearts there is perversity pursue doubtful one desiring deviation and searching their own viewpoint of it, and its right interpretation is known to Allah alone. And those of firm knowledge say, 'We believed in it, all is from our Lord and none accept admonition save men of understanding.
· 'O our Lord! Let not our hearts become perverse after this that You guided us and bestow on us mercy from Yourself; no doubt, You are the big Bestower.
· 'O our Lord! No doubt You are the assembler of all people for the Day in which there is no doubt. Undoubtedly the promise of Allah changes not.
· No doubt, those who became infidels; their riches and their children shall avail them nothing against Allah and it is they who are the fuel of the hell.
· Like the people of Pharaohs and those before them, they belied our Signs; then Allah seized them for their sins and Allah's punishment is severe.
· Say to the disbeliveers, 'soon you shall be overcome and be driven towards the hell and that is an evil bed'.
· No doubt, there was a sign for you in two groups that encountered among themselves. One gang fighting in the way of Allah and the other disbeliveers that they understood them double of themselves in their eyesight; and Allah strengthens with His help whom He pleases. No doubt, in it there is teaching after seeing for the men of understanding.
· Adorned for men is the love of these lusts, women and children and the stored up heaps of gold and silver and branded horses and cattle and crops. This is the capital of living world; and it is Allah with Whom there is an excellent destination.
· Say you 'shall I inform you of something better than that.' For pious ones there are gardens with their Lord beneath which rivers flow therein shall they abide, and pure wives and Allah's pleasure. And Allah sees His bondsmen.
· Those who say, 'Our Lord we did accept faith, then forgive us our sins and save us from the torment of the hell.'
· The steadfast and truthful and humble and those who spend in the way of Allah and those who seek forgiveness in the latter part of the night.
· Allah bore witness that none is to be worshiped save He, and the angels and the men of learning (too) standing with justice; none is to be worshiped save He, the most Reverend, Wise.
· Verily, only Islam is the Din (Religion) before Allah, and the men of Book did not dissent but after the knowledge had come to them, because of their hearts burning. And whoso denies the signs of Allah; then no doubt Allah is to call to account very soon.
· Again O beloved! If they argue with you, then say 'I have submitted my face before Allah and those who followed me; and say to the men of Books and to those who read not; 'have you submitted'? Hence if they submit, then they got the guidance and if turn their faces, then upon you it is only to convey the message, and Allah is seeing His bondsmen.
· Those who deny the signs of Allah, and slay the Prophets unjustly and kill the men ordering justice; give them good tiding of painful torment.
· These are they whose deeds have perished in this world and the next and they shall have no helpers.
· Have you not observed those given a portion of the Book are being called to the Book of Allah that it may judge between them, then a faction of them turns away being opposed to it?
· This boldness came to them because they say, 'The fire shall not touch us except for a number of days'; and the lies which they used to invent deceived them in their religion.
· Then how will it be, when We shall gather them for a Day in which there is no doubt; and every soul shall be paid in full what it has earned and they shall not be wronged.
· Say like this, 'O Allah Master of the Kingdom, You give the Kingdom to whom You please; and seize the Kingdom from whom You please. And you exalt whom You please and You abase whom You please; in Your hand is all good. No doubt You can do all things.
· You cause the night to enter into day and cause the day to enter into night, and bring forth the living from the dead and bring forth the dead from the living, and provide whomsoever You please with out reckoning
· Let not the Muslims takes infidels as their friends besides the Muslims and whosoever shall do that he has no connection with Allah, but this that have some fear of them; and Allah cautions you from His wrath; and unto Allah is the return.
· Say, you, 'whether you conceal what is in your hearts or declare it, Allah knows all; and knows whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth. And Allah has the authority over every thing.'
· The day when every soul shall find presented whatever it did of good and whatever it did of evil; it will long, would there be a far distance between it and me. And Allah warns you of His torment; and Allah is Kind enough over His bondsmen.
· 'O beloved! Say you, 'O people! If you love Allah, then follow me; Allah will love you and forgive your sins and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
· Say you, 'Obey Allah and the messenger; then if they turn their faces, then Allah loves not the infidels.
· No doubt, Allah chose Adam and Noah and the family of Ibrahim and the family of Imran from over the entire world.
· It is a race from one another. And Allah Hears and Knows.
· When the wife of Imran said, My lord! 'I make a vow to You, for what is in my womb to remain purely in Your service. There fore accept this from me, no doubt, You alone are Hearing, Knowing.
· Then when she gave birth to her, she said, 'O my Lord I have given Birth to a female. And Allah knows well whatever she had given birth to and that male whom she demanded was not like this female and I have named her Mary, and I give her and her off-spring under Your protection from Satan the rejected.
· Therefore her Lord accepted her graciously and caused her to grow an excellent growth and gave her under the guardianship of 'Zakaria'. Whenever Zakaria went to her place of prayer, he found new provision with her. He said! O Mary! Whence came this to you? She spoke, 'that is from Allah,' No doubt, Allah gives whomsoever He pleases without measure.
· Here Zakaria called his Lord, said, 'O my Lord! Give me from Yourself pure offspring; no doubt, You only are the Hearer of prayers.
· Then the angels called him and he was offering prayer standing at his place of worship, no doubt Allah gives you glad tidings of Yahya who shall confirm a word from Allah, a chief and chaste and prophet from amongst Our righteous.
· Said, 'O my Lord! From where shall I have a son, while the old age has reached to me and my wife is barren'. Said, 'Allah does so whatever He pleases'.
· Submitted he, O my Lord! 'Appoint a token for me' Said, your token is this that you shall not speak to people for three days but with signals, and remember your Lord much and praise Him at a time nearing sunset and at dawn.
· And when the angels said, 'O Mary; verily Allah has chosen you and purified well ' and today has chosen you from amongst the women of all worlds'.
· 'O Mary! Stand before your Lord humbly and prostrate for Him and bow down with those who bow down.
· These are the tidings of unseen that We reveal to you in secret. And you were not with them when they drew lots with their pen that under whose guardianship Mary should be given, and you were not with them when they were disputing.
· And remember when the angels said to Mary, 'O Mary! Allah gives you glad tidings of a word from Him, whose name is Masih, Isa son of Mary, he shall be dignified in the world and the Hereafter and of those nearest to Allah.
· And he shall talk to the people in the cradle and in the ripe age (Maturity) and shall be of the righteous.
· She said, 'O my Lord! From where shall I have a son no person has touched me. Said He, "Allah creates in such a way what He pleases". When He decrees any thing, then He only says to it 'Be! And it is.
· And Allah will teach him the Book and wisdom and the Taurat and Injeel.
· And he shall be a Messenger towards the children of Israel saying this, 'I have brought to you a sign from your Lord; that I make a form out of clay like a bird for you then again breathe in it and it becomes a bird atonce by the command of Allah; and I heal the born blind and the leper and I make the dead alive by the command of Allah and tell to you whatever you eat and what you store in your houses. No doubt, in these things there is a great sign for you if you believe.
· And I have come confirming the book Taurat that was before me; and for this that I should make lawful some of those things which were forbidden to you; and I have brought to you a sign from your Lord then fear Allah and obey my command.
· No doubt Allah is the Lord of me, of yours, of all so worship Him only. This is the straight path.
· Then again when Isa found infidelity in them, said, 'who become my helpers towards Allah'. The disciples said, 'We are the helpers of the religion of God; We have believed in Allah and bear you witness that we are Muslims.
· 'O our Lord! 'We believe in what you have sent down and followed the Messenger, then write us among those who bear witness on truth.'
· And the infidels plotted and Allah secretly devised for their destruction and Allah is the best of secret devisers.
· Remember, when Allah said; O Isa! I shall cause you to reach to your full life and I shall raise you towards Myself and I shall purify you from the infidels, and shall give your followers superiority over the rejecters until the Day of Resurrection then you all shall come returning to Me: then I shall decide between you concerning that wherein you dispute'.
· Then those who became infidels, I shall torment them with severe punishment in this world and the next and they shall have no helpers.
· And to those who believed and did good deeds, Allah will pay them their rewards in full and the unjust are not acceptable to Allah.
· Thus, We recite to you of some signs and wise admonition
· The likeness of Isa with Allah, is like Adam. He created him of dust, then said, 'Be and 'he' was atonce.
· 'O Listener! This is the truth from your Lord; be not therefore of doubters.
· Then O beloved! Whoever disputes with you about Isa after knowledge has come to you, then tell them, 'come, let us call our sons and your sons our women and your women and our souls and your souls, then let us pray earnestly, and so lay the curse of Allah upon the liars.'
· This verily is the true Narrative; There is none worthy of worship save Allah; and verily only Allah is All Mighty, the All Wise.
· Then if they turn back their faces, then Allah knows the mischief mongers.
· Say you, O people of the Book! Come towards such a word which is common between us and you, that is we worship none but Allah and associate no partner with Him; and none of us make one another as Lord beside Allah; then if they do not accept then say, 'bear witness that we are Muslims.'
· 'O people of the Book! Why do you dispute about Ibraham? The Torah and Injil (Gospel) were not sent down, but after him, then have you no reason?
· Behold! you are those who disputed in that of which you had knowledge, then why you dispute in that of which you have no knowledge, and Allah knows and you know not.
· Abraham was neither a Jew nor Christian but was a Muslim separate from every falsehood and was not of the polytheists.
· Verily, the more rightful claimant of Abraham than all people were those who followed him and this prophet and the believers, And Allah is the Protector of the believers.
· A section of the people of the Book yearns that in any way you go astray and they make astray to themselves and they have no sense.
· 'O people of the Book! Why do you deny the signs of Allah, whereas you are yourselves witnesses.
· 'O people of the Book! Why do you confound truth with falsehood and why do you conceal the truth whereas you have knowledge?
· A section of the people of the Book said, 'believe in that which has been sent down upon the believers at morning and deny at evening; perchance they may return'.
· And believe not any but. Him who is the follower of your religion. Say you, 'The guidance of Allah is the only guidance of Allah. That may be given to any one the like of that was given to you', or anyone might argue you before your Lord. Say, you, 'the bounty is in the hand of Allah alone; He gives it to whomsoever He pleases; and Allah is All-Embracing All-Knowing.
· He singles out with His mercy whomsoever He pleases and Allah is of exceeding bounty.
· Among the people of the Book there is someone with whom if you keep a huge treasure in trust then he will pay it back to you, and in them there is someone, with whom if you keep in trust a single dinar then he will not repay it to you, except when you remain standing over his head. It is because they say, 'there is no responsibility over us in the matter of illiterates. And they utter a lie against Allah knowingly.
· Yes, why not, one who fulfilled his pledge and feared God and verily, Allah loves those who fear God.
· Those who accept mean price in exchange of their covenant with Allah and their oaths, they have no portion in the Hereafter, and Allah will neither speak to them nor look towards them or Resurrection Day, nor will He purify them; and for them there is painful torment.
· And among them some are those who distort the Book by twisting their tongues; that you may think it is also in the Book, and that is not in the Book. And they say, 'It is from Allah, whereas it is not from Allah and they forge a lie against Allah purposely and knowingly.
· It is not the right of any man that Allah should give him the Book and command and prophet hood, then he should say to people, 'Be my bondmen leaving Allah; Yes he will say this, 'Be men of Allah because you teach the Book and because you study it.'
· And He would not order you this that you should take the angels and prophets as God. Would He order you to infidelity after it that you have become Muslims?
· And remember when Allah took from the prophets their covenant whatever I should give you of the Book and wisdom then comes to you the Messenger confirming your Books, then assuredly you shall believe in him and assuredly you help him. He said, 'do you agree, and do you accept My heavy responsibility on it. All submitted 'We did affirm, He said, 'then be witness against one another and I am myself among witnesses with you.
· Now whoso turns away after this, then they are the dis-obedients.
· Then, do they like a religion other than the religion of Allah? And to Him has submitted whoso is in the heavens and the earth, willingly and unwillingly, and to Him shall they be returned.
· Say like this, 'that We believed in Allah and in that which was sent down to us and in that which Was sent down to Ibrahim and Ismail and Ishaque and Yaqoob and his children and that which was given to Moosa and Isa and prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them in believing and to Him we have bowed down our necks.
· And whoso will desire for a religion other than Islam that shall never be accepted from him and in the next world he shall be among the losers.
· How Allah shall wish to guide such a people who disbelieved after believing and had borne witness that the Messenger is true and to whom had come clear signs? And Allah guides not a people unjust.
· Their meed is this that on them there is curse of Allah, and of angels and of men, all together.
· They should abide thereunder. Neither the torment shall be lightened from over them and nor shall they be respited.
· But those who repented thereafter and amended themselves, then necessarily, Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
· No doubt, those who disbelieved after believing then again wax in infidelity, their repentance shall never be accepted and these are they who have gone astray.
· Those who disbelieved and died as infidels, there shall never be accepted an earth full of gold from anyone of them, though he offers it in ransom for himself. There is painful torment for them, and they shall have no helpers.
· You shall never attain good unless you spend your favourite things; and Allah knows whatever you spend.
· All food was lawful to the children of Israel; save what Yaqoob had made unlawful for himself before the Taurah wee sent down. Say you, bring the Taurat and read it if you are truthful?
· Then after that, whose forges lie against Allah, those are the persons unjust.
· Say you, 'Allah is true therefore follow the religion of Ibraham Who was separate from every falsehood, and was not of the polytheists.
· Verily, the first House among all marked for the worship o, the people is that which is in Mecca abounding in blessing and a guide of all world.
· Therein are clear sighs; the place where Ibraham stood and whosoever enters it, is in security. And for the sake of Allah, the people is to perform pilgrimage to this House, who could find a way thither. And who denies, then Allah is independent of entire world.
· Say you, 'O people of Book! Why not you accept the signs of Allah while your works are before Allah.
· Say you, 'O people of the Book! Why do you hinder those who accepted the faith from the path of Allah, you desire to crook it and you are yourself witness thereof? And Allah is not unaware of your doings.
· 'O believers! If you obey some of the people of the Book, then they would render you infidels after your belief.
· And how would you commit infidelity, (whereas) to you are recited the signs of Allah; and in your midst has come the Messenger of Allah? And he who sought the support of Allah has been directed to a straight path.
· 'O believers! Fear Allah, as rightly He is to be feared, and do not die ever save as Muslims.
· And hold fast, all together, by the rope of Allah, and be not divided among themselves. And remember Allah's favour upon you. Remember when there was enmity among you, He joined your hearts together then, by His grace, you became brothers together and you were upon the brink of a pit of Fire, then He rescued you from it; Thus Allah explains to you His signs; that haply you may act guidance.
· And let there be such a group among you, that they may call towards goodness and command what is just and forbid evil. And the very same attained to their goals.
· And be not like those who were divided (in sections) and disagreed among themselves, after this that bright signs had come to them and for them there is mighty torment.
· On the day when some faces shall be white, and some black. Then those whose faces: have been blackened, (they will be told) 'did you become infidels after accepting faith? Then now taste the torment, the recompense of your infidelity.
· And as for those, whose faces are whitened, they are under the mercy of Allah; they shall abide in it.
· These are the signs of Allah that We recite unto you correctly, and Allah intends not injustice to the people of the worlds.
· And to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth and unto Allah is the return of all matters.
· You are the best among all those nations appeared unto mankind, you command! To good, and forbid evil, and keep faith unto Allah. Had the people of the Book believed, then it was good for them. Some of them are Muslims and most of them are infidels.
· They will not harm you save annoying; and if they fight with you, they will turn their backs from you, then again they will not be helped.
· Ignominy has been pitched on them, wherever they are, they shill get no security save a rope from Allah and a rope from men, (they may get protection). They became worthy of the wrath of Allah and on them destitution have been pitched. This is because they used to reject the signs of Allah and slay the prophets unjustly. This is because they were disobedient and transgressors.
· All are not alike. Among the people of the Book some are those who stand right, recite the signs of Allah in the hours of night and prostrate.
· They believe in Allah and the Last Day and command good and forbid evil and run for good works, and they are righteous.
· And those who will do good, their rights shall not be denied and Allah knows the God fearing.
· Those who became infidels, their riches and children shall not avail them at all against Allah and they are the men of hell and shall abide therein.
· The example of that which they spend in the life of this world is like a wind in which there is intense cold; that strikes the harvest of such a nation which wronged themselves, therefore it destroyed that, and Allah wronged them not, but yes, they wrong unto their own souls.
· 'O believers! Do not make strangers as your confidants; they leave no stone unturned in harming you. They yearn for what distresses you: Hostility appeared from their utterances and what they have concealed in their breasts is yet greater. We have made you hear Our signs clearly, if you have wisdom.
· Behold, it is you who love them, and they love you not. Though you believe in all the Books. And when they meet you, they say, 'we accepted faith', and when they are alone, then they bite their fingertips at you out of wrath. Say you, die in your passion' Allah knows well the thoughts of the hearts.
· Anything good befall you it vexes them; and an evil be fall you, then they are happy at it, and if you have patience. And fear Allah, then their guile will not hurt you at all. Verily, their all doings are under the' circumference of Allah.
· And remember O beloved! When you came out from your house in the morning, I am assigning to the Muslims their positions for battle. And Allah is All-Hearing All-Knowing.
· When two of your groups intended Cowardice, but Allah is their supporter, and upon Allah should the Muslims rely.
· And verily, Allah did help you at Badr, when you were resourceless. So fear Allah that perhaps you may be thankful.
· When O beloved! You did say to Muslim 'Is it not enough for you that your Lord should assist you by sending down three thousand angels?
· Yes, why not, if you have patience and fear God, and the infidels came upon you instantly, then your Lord will send five thousand angels with marks for your help.
· And this victory Allah did not make, save for pleasing you and so that your hearts might get rest with it, there is no help except from Allah, the Dominant, the Wise.
· In order that He might cut a portion of the infidels or abase them, so that they may go back dis-appointed.
· This matter is not in your hand, whether He shows His graciousness to them for repent fence or torment them, for they are unjust.
· And to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth. He Forgives whomsoever and torments whomsoever He pleases; and Allah is For giving Merciful.
· 'O believers! Devour not interest, doubled and redoubled; and fear Allah, in the hope that you may get prosperity.
· And Ward off the Fire which is already prepared for the infidels.
· And remain obedient to Allah and Messenger, in the hope that you be shown mercy.
· And run towards the forgiveness of your Lord and to such a paradise whose width covers all heavens and earth is already prepared for those who are pious.
· Those who spend in the path of Allah in prosperity and adversity and who restrain anger and who pardon men. And virtuous people are dear to Allah.
· And those who, when they have committed indecency or wronged their own souls, beg forgiveness for their sins remembering Allah, and who forgives sins save Allah? And do not persist knowingly in what they have done.
· For such the recompense is their 'Lord's forgiveness and Gardens with rivers flowing underneath, they shall remain for ever therein, and what an excellent reward is for workers.
· Some systems have already been experimented, before you, then see, going through the earth, how was the end of the beliers! (Who did deny)?
· This is to state to people and to guide and is admonition to those who are pious.
· And be not sluggish and neither be grieved, you are the very same who shall overcome if you have faith.
· If any distress has come to you, then they too have already received a similar distress. These are the days in which we have fixed turns for the people and that is because Allah may make one to distinguish the believes and may assign some of you the position of martyrs. And Allah loves not the unjust.
· And so that Allah may purify the Muslims and wipe out the infidels.
· Are you in this supposition that you shall enter the paradise and yet Allah has not tested your warriors and neither has experimented the steadfast?
· And you used to long for death before meeting it, so now you have seen it with your eyes.
· And Muhammad is only a Messenger. There have been many other messengers before him. Will you then, if he departs or be slain, turn back on your heels? And he, who will turn back on his heels, shall not harm Allah at all. And very soon Allah will recompense the thankful.
· And no soul can die save by the leave of God - the time of all is already recorded. And whoso desires the reward of the world, We gave to him of this, and he who desires the reward of the Hereafter, We give to him of this, And it is very soon, We may recompense the thankful.
· And many a prophet fought, with them there were many god-men, they fell not sluggish with the miseries they faced in the path of Allah, and neither became weak nor gave in. And the steadfast are dear to Allah.
· They did say nothing save this prayer, 'O Our Lord! Forgive our sins and our excesses that we committed in our affairs, and make firm our steps and help us against these disbelieving people.
· So Allah gave them the reward of the world, and goodness of the reward of Hereafter. And the good-doers are dear to Allah.
· 'O believers! If you follow the line of infidels, then they will turn you upon your heels, and you will be back after losing.
· Whereas Allah is your Patron; and He is the best Helper.
· Soon We shall cast terror in the hearts of infidels, because they associated partners with Allah for which He sent down not any understanding and their abode is Fire, and what is the evil abode of the unjust.
· And verily, Allah did prove the truth of His promise to you when you were killing the infidels by His leave, until when you showed weakness and quarrelled about the order and Dis-obeyed after He had shown you the thing you desired for. Of you some one desired the world and of you some one desired the Hereafter, then He turned your faces from them that He might; test you; and no doubt, He forgive you and Allah is Bounteous over Muslims.
· When you were going up and did not look back towards anyone and Our Messenger was calling you in another group, therefore He gave you, sorrow in recompense for a sorrow, and forgave in order that you might not grieve for what sent out of your hand and what befell you. And Allah is informed of your doings
· Then after sorrow, He sent down to you slumber that had surrounded a party of you, and another party was anxious about themselves, suspected of Allah unjustly; like the suspicion of Ignorance. They say, 'Have we any power in this affair'? Say you, 'entire authority is of Allah. They conceal in their hearts that they reveal not unto you; they say, 'if we had any power, then we would not have been killed here." Say you, 'If you had been in your houses, even then those for whom killing was already written would have gone forth to the place of their slaughter; and in order that Allah might test the feelings of your breasts, and whatever is in your hearts might purge it. Allah knows the thoughts of your hearts.
· No doubt, those of you who turned back on the day when two armies met. It was Satan who made them slip because of their certain actions, and surely Allah forgave them. Verily, Allah is Forgiving, Gentle.
· 'O believers! Be not like those infidels who told about their brothers when went on journey or on holy war; that had they been with us, they would not have died and not been slain, in order that Allah may make it a cause of regret in their hearts. And Allah gives life and causes death and Allah is seeing your works.
· And undoubtedly, if you are slain in the way of Allah or die, then the forgiveness of Allah and His mercy are better than their entire wealth.
· And if you die or be slain, certainly you are to gather towards Allah.
· Then, it is of the mercy of Allah that O beloved! You became gentle for them and if you had been hot headed, hard hearted, then they certainly would have dispersed from your circle, so pardon them and intercede for them and consult them in the affairs; and when you have made up your mind for any thing, then put your trust in Allah. Undoubtedly the trustful are dear to Allah.
· If Allah helps you, then none can overcome you; and He forsakes you, then who is such that can help you again. And Muslim should have trust unto Allah alone.
· It cannot be thought about any prophet that he hides away something and whatever he hides away, he shall come with his hidden thing on the Day of Resurrection; then every soul shall be paid in full what it has earned, and there shall be no injustice unto them.
· Will then he who follows the pleasure of Allah be like him who has earned the wrath of Allah and his abode is hell? And what a bad place of returns it is.
· They are according to their ranks near Allah and Allah sees their works.
· Undoubtedly, Allah did a great favour to the Muslims that in them from among themselves sent a Messenger who recites unto them His signs and purifies them and teaches them the Book and wisdom, and necessarily before that they were certainly in apparent error.
· What! When any calamity reaches you, though double of which you had caused to reach (to them), you began to say, "Whence it came". Say you; 'It is from your own side'. Undoubtedly Allah can do everything.
· And that calamity which befell you on the day the two armies had met was by Allah's leave, and thus He might make known the believers.
· And that He might make one to distinguish the hypocrites and it was said to them, "come, fight in the way of Allah or drive out the enemy". They said, "If we knew fighting, then certainly we would have sided you." And they on that day were nearer to apparent infidelity than to expressed faith. They say with their mouths, what is not in their hearts. And Allah knows what they are concealing.
· Those who said about their brothers and while them selves remained behind, 'Had they obeyed us, they would not have been killed.' Say you, 'then avert your own death if you are truthful.'
· And those who have been slain in the way of Allah never think of them as dead; but they are alive with their Lord, get their subsistence.
· They are happy because of that which Allah has bestowed upon them of His Bounty and are rejoicing for their successors who have not yet joined them that on them there is not any fear, nor any grief.
· They rejoice at the favour of Allah and His bounty, and that Allah wastes not the reward of Muslims.
· Those who responded to the call of Allah and Messenger after the wound had smitten them There is great reward for their righteous and reverent people.
· Those to whom people said, 'the people have gathered against you, 'therefore fear them; but this increased their faith and said, 'Allah is sufficient for us and what an excellent Disposer of Affairs.
· Hence, they returned with a favour from Allah and His Bounty, no evil touched them and followed the pleasure of Allah. And Allah is of great, Bounty.
· It is only the Satan that threatens you of his friends: so fear them not and fear Me if you have faith.
· And (O beloved) you grieve not of them at all, who run after infidelity, they will not harm Allah at all. And Allah intends not to assign any position for them in the Hereafter and for them, there is great torment.
· Those who purchased infidelity for faith will not harm Allah at all, and for them is the painful torment.
· And let never the unbelievers suppose that the respite, We grant them is some thing good for them. Certainly, We grant them respite only because they may further increase in sin. And for them is the degrading torment.
· Allah is not to leave the Muslims in the present state of affairs in which you are, until He separates unpure from the pure. (Wicked from the good) And it is not befitting to the dignity of Allah that O general people! He let you know the unseen. Yes, Allah chooses from amongst His messengers whom He pleases. Then believe in Allah and His messengers. And if you accept faith and fear, then there is great reward for you.
· And let not those who are niggardly with respect to what Allah has given them out of His bounty think that it is good for them; on the contrary it is bad for them. Soon that for which they were niggardly shall be their necklace on the Day of Resurrection. And only Allah is the Heir of heavens and earth and Allah is aware of your doings.
· Undoubtedly Allah heard those who said, "Allah is needy and we are rich." Now We shall put their sayings and their slaying of the prophets unjustly in writing; and We shall say, 'taste the torment of the fire.'
· This is the compensation of what your hands have sent forth. And Allah does not oppress their bondsmen.
· Those who say, 'Allah has covenanted with us that we believe not in any messenger until he brings an order of such sacrifice which the fire consumes; say you, 'Many messengers came to you before me bearing clear signs and with this order which you speak of, then why did you kill them, if you are truthful?
· Then O beloved! If they belie you even, so the messengers before you, who had come bearing clear signs and the scriptures and the shining Book have already been belied.
· Every soul is to taste the death; and you will get your compensation in full only on the Day of Resurrection. Whosoever is saved from the Fire and made to enter into Paradise, attained to his goal. And the life of this world is but the goods of deception.
· Undoubtedly, you shall certainly be tested in your property and in your lives. And undoubtedly, you shall certainly hear a good deal of bad things from the people of the Book before you and from idolaters. But if you endure and guard yourselves (against evils), then it is the work of strong determination.
· And remember when Allah took a covenant from those who were given the Book that, 'you shall necessarily make it known to the people and congeal it not, but they threw it behind their backs, and took a mean price in Exchange of it, then how an evil Purchasing it is!
· Never think of those who rejoice on their doings and wish that they may be praised without doing. Never think of such people away from the torment and for them is the painful torment.
· And to Allah belongs the kingdom of the heavens and earth; and Allah is Potent over every thing.
· Undoubtedly, in the creation of heavens and earth and in the mutual alternation of night and day, there are signs for men of understanding.
· Who remember Allah standing and sitting and lying on their sides, and contemplate in the creation of heavens and earth; (saying) "O our Lord! You have not made it invain, Hallowed be You, You save us from the torment of the Hell.
· 'O our Lord! Verily whomsoever you cause to enter the Hell, him You have surely humiliated, and the unjust have no helpers.
· 'O our Lord! We heard a proclaimer that he calls for believing, that believe unto your Lord; then we believed. O our Lord! Forgive us our sins and wipe off us our evils and cause us to die along with the righteous.
· 'O our Lord! And give us that what You have promised to us through Your Messengers; and disgrace us not on the Day of Resurrection. Undoubtedly You do not break the promise.
· Then their Lord heard their prayer that I certainly waste not the labour of any worker from amongst you, be a male or female, you are one among yourselves. Hence those who emigrated and were driven out from their homes, and were tortured in My way and fought and were killed. I shall surely wipe out all their sins and shall surely cause them to enter into the gardens beneath which flow rivers, a reward from Allah. And with Allah only there is good reward.
· 'O Listener! Let not deceive you the strutting about of the infidels in the cities.
· A brief enjoyment; their abode is the Hell and what an evil bed!
· But those who fear their Lord, for them there are gardens beneath which flow rivers. They shall abide therein; an entertainment from Allah and that, which is with Allah, is still better for the righteous.
· And undoubtedly, some among the men of the Book are such that they believe in Allah and in what has been sent to you and what have been sent down to them, their hearts are bent towards Allah, do not accept mean price for the signs of Allah. These are those whose reward is with their Lord; and Allah is swift in taking account.
· 'O believers! Be patient, and excel in patience with the enemies and guard Islamic country on the border and remain fearing Allah that haply you may be successful.

Surah An-Nisaa

· 'O people! Fear your Lord Who created you from a single soul and made its mate from within it, and from that pair spread many men and women and fear Allah in Whose name you ask for (your rights) and pay attention to the ties of relationship. Undoubtedly. Allah is watching you all time.
· And give the orphans their property and do not exchange dirty for the clean and consume not their property mixing it with your property. Undoubtedly, it is a great sin.
· And if you apprehend that you will not be able to do justice to orphan girls, then marry such other women as seem good to you, two, three, four, but if you are afraid that you will not be able to keep two wives on equal terms, then marry one only or captives whom you own. This is nearer to keeping you away from doing injustice.
· And give the women their dowries willingly. But if they, of their own pleasure of heart remit something of it to you, then consume it with taste and pleasure.
· And give not to the unwise their property you have, which Allah has made a means of your living and feed them therewith and clothe them and speak to them good words.
· And remain testing the orphans, until they are able to marry; then if you find them of right understanding, deliver to them their property and consume it not in extravagance and in such haste that they should not reach their maturity. And whose is not needy, let him abstain and whoso is needy, let him consume it with equity. But when you deliver them their property, then take witnesses against them. And Allah is sufficient in taking account.
· For men there is share in what their parents and relatives have left behind, and for women there is share in what their parents and relatives have left behind, be the bequest little or be it much, it is a share estimated, determined.
· But if at the time of division, the relatives and the orphans and the needy come, then give them too something therefrom and speak to them good words.
· And let those fears, who if they had to leave behind them weak offspring, would have been afraid for them, so they should be afraid of Allah and speak the upright speech.
· Those who consume the property of orphans unjustly, they fill in their belies with fire only, and they shall soon enter into the flaming fire.
· Allah commands you concerning your children, the share of male is equal to the share of two females; then if there be daughters only, though more than two, then for them is two third of what is left, and if there be only one daughter, for her is one half. And for each of the parents of the deceased is one sixth of what is left, if there be a child of the deceased, but if he has no child and leaves parents, then for the mother is one third; but if there be his many sisters and brothers, then for the mother is one sixth, after any bequest which has been made and debts. Your fathers and your sons, you know not which of them will be more profitable to you. This is fixed proportion from Allah. Undoubtedly Allah is All Knowing, Wise.
· And for you is one-half of what is left by your wives, if they have no issue (child) but if they have issue (child), then you have one fourth of what they leave after (paying) any bequest made by them and the debts. And for the women is one fourth of what you leave if you have no issue (child); but if you have issue (child), then for them is one-eight of what you leave after (paying) any bequest made by you and the debts. And if the heritage of any such male or female who leave behind nothing, neither parents nor children is to be divided and from mother side he or she has brother or sister, then for each one of them is one sixth. Then if the sister and brother be more than one, then all are sharer in one-third, after (payment of the bequest of the deceased and debts in which the deceased would not have caused any harm. This is an injunction from Allah and Allah is All Knowing, Gentle.
· These are the limits of Allah and whoso obeys Allah and His Messenger; Allah will make him enter Gardens beneath which flow rivers will abide therein. And this is the great success.
· And whose disobeys Allah and His Messenger and transgresses His all limits; Allah will cause him to enter the Fire, in which he will abide and for him is degrading torment.
· And those of your women who commit adultery; take the evidence of four males specially from amongst you against them; then again if they give evidence then confine those women to the houses until death take them or Allah envisages some way for them.
· And those males, female of you commit such act, torture them, then again if they repent and amend, then leave them alone. Undoubtedly Allah is most Relenting, Merciful.
· The repentance whose acceptance has been under taken by Allah with His own Grace is only for those who do evil ignorantly and then again repent soon after. To wards such people Allah turns with His Mercy; and Allah is Knowing, Wise.
· And that repentance is not neither of those who continue in doing evil until when death comes to anyone of them, he says, 'now I repent' nor for those who die as infidels. For them We have prepared a painful torment.
· 'O believers! It is not lawful for you to be heir of the women forcibly, and prevent them not with this design that you may take away part of what you had given them as dower except in this shape that they commit an act of flagrant indecency and treat with them fairly; then if you dislike them, it is likelihood that you may dislike a thing and wherein Allah has placed much good.
· And if you desire to change one wife for another and you have already given her a heap of treasure; then take not anything thereof. Will you take it by slander and with manifest sin?
· How you shall take it when each of you has already become unveiled before one another and they have taken from you a most firm covenant?
· And do not marry those women whom your fathers have married, except what has already passed. Undoubtedly, that is an act of indecency and wrath and an evil way.
· Forbidden to you are your mothers, and your daughters and sisters and your father's sisters and mother's sisters and your brother's daughters and your sister's daughters, and your mothers who have given suck to you and your foster sisters and the mothers of your wives and daughters (your step daughters) who are in your care from the wives with whom you had intercourse but if you had not intercourse with them, then there is no harm in their daughters, and the wives of your sons who are of your loins and to have two sisters together except what has already passed. Undoubtedly. Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
· And forbidden to you are the women having husbands save the women of infidels who come in your possession. This is the prescription of Allah unto you and the remaining besides those are lawful for you; so that you seek them in exchange of your properties bringing them in bondage (through marriage) and not desiring for lust. Therefore, as to those women whom you wish to marry, give them their fixed dowries. And there is no sin in what you mutually agree! Upon after fixation. Undoubtedly, Allah is Knowing, Wise.
· And amongst you one who cannot marry free believing women due to insufficient means; then let him marry such of the believing handmaids who are the possession of your hands. And Allah knows your faith very well the one of you is from the other, therefore, marry them with the leave of their masters and give them their dowries according to convention bringing them into bondage (through marriage), not desiring for lust, and nor making lovers; when they come under bondage and again commit any act of indecency, then on them the punishment is half of that, for free women. This is for him who of you are afraid of adultery and it is better for you to have patience. And Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
· Allah desires to explain to you His commandments and to tell you the ways of those before you and to turn to you with His Mercy. And Allah is Knowing, Wise.
· And Allah desires to turn to you with His Mercy, and those who follow their lust desire that you should stray far away from the right path.
· Allah desires to lighten unto you, and man has been created weak.
· 'O believers! Consume not unjustly the property of one another among yourselves except it be a trade by your mutual consent. And kill not yourselves. Undoubtedly, Allah is Merciful to you.
· And whosoever shall do so with excessiveness and injustice, then We shall make him enter into Fire soon: and that is easy for Allah.
· If you keep away from major sins that are forbidden to you, then We will forgive your other sins and make you enter a place of honour.
· And covet not that whereby Allah has made one of you excel over the other. For men there is share from their earning, and for women there is share from their earning. And ask Allah for His Grace. Undoubtedly, Allah knows every thing.
· And for every one We have made heirs of the property that is left by parents and relations, and those with whom you have sworn compact give to them their share, undoubtedly every thing is before Allah.
· Men are incharge over women, because Allah has made one of them excel over another, and because men have expended their wealth over them, so the virtuous women are submissive, they keep watch in the absence of husband as Allah commanded to watch. And as to those women whose disobedience you fear, then admonish them and sleep apart from them, and beat them (lightly), then if they come under your command, then seek not any way of excess against them. Undoubtedly, Allah is Exalted, Great.
· And if you fear a dispute between husband and wife, then appoint an arbiter from the side of the family of man and an arbiter from the side of the family of woman, if these two will desire reconciliation, then Allah will cause unity between them. Undoubtedly, Allah is knowing, Aware.
· And worship Allah, and do not associate anyone with Him and do good to parents, and to relatives and orphans, and the needy, and the near neighbour and the distant neighbour and the companion of your side and the wayfarer and to your male and female servants. Undoubtedly, Allah loves not the proud, boastful.
· Those who themselves act miserly and say others to be misers and conceal that which Allah has given them of His bounty. And We have prepared for the infidels a degrading torment.
· And those who spend their wealth to show off to men and do riot have faith unto Allah and nor the Last Day and whose companion has become Satan, then what an evil companion is he?
· And what was the harm, if they would have faith in Allah and the Last Day and spent out of what Allah has given them? And Allah knows them.
· Allah does not do injustice even to the weight of an atom, and if there be a good deed, He doubles it and gives from Himself immense reward.
· Then how shall it be, when We bring up a witness from every nation, and O beloved Muhammad! We will bring you as a witness and a guardian against all those.
· 'On that day those who disbelieved and dis-obeyed the Messenger would wish that if the earth were levelled after burying them in it, and they could not be able to conceal; anything from Allah.
· 'O believers! Approach not prayer while you are intoxicated, until you have so much sense that what you say, you understand, nor when you are unclean without taking a bath except when you are travelling; and if you are ailing, or on a journey, or any one of you comes from privy, or you have touched women and you do not find water, then take some pure earth and wipe there with your faces and your hands. Undoubtedly, Allah is Pardoning, Forgiving.
· Have you not seen those who were given a portion of t he Book? They buy error and intend that you too may lose the way.
· And Allah knows well your enemies. And Allah is sufficient as Guardian, and Allah is sufficient as Helper.
· Some of the Jews pervert words from their places; and say, 'We have heard and we disobey, and hear you, continue not making us hear, 'and say RAINA twisting their tongues and taunting in Faith. And if they say that we have heard and obeyed, and sir hear our talks and sir look at us, it would have been better for them and more upright. But Allah has cursed them for their infidelity, so they believe not, save a little.
· 'O people of the Book! Believe in what We have sent down confirming the Book with you, before We deface some faces and turn them on their backs or curse them as We cursed the people of the Sabt (Saturday). And the decree of Allah is bound to be carried out.
· Undoubtedly, Allah forgives not that infidelity be done with Him and whatever is less than infidelity forgives whomsoever He pleases, And whoso associates partners with Allah has forged a great sin.

· Have they some share in the kingdom? It is so then they would not give mankind a speck.
· Or do they envy the people for what Allah has given them out of His bounty? Then We gave the Book and wisdom to the children of Abraham and granted them a great kingdom.
· Then some of them believed in him and some others fumed faces from him and sufficient is Hell, as blazing fire.
· Those who have rejected Our signs, We shall soon cause them to enter Fire. Whenever their skins shall be fully burnt up, We shall change them with other skins, that they may taste the torment. Undoubtedly, Allah is Dominant Wise.

· Have you not observed those, who claim that they believe in what has been sent down to you, and what has been send down before you? Then they wish to make the devil their arbiter, whereas they were commanded to reject him wholly. And Satan desires to lead them far astray.
· And when it is said to them! Come towards the Book sent down by Allah and the messenger then you shall see that the hypocrites turn away from you averting their faces.
· How shall it be, when any affliction befalls them, for what their hands have sent forth? Then O beloved! They come to you swearing by Allah that our object was kindness and concord only.
· Allah knows what is in their hearts then overlook them, and admonish them and say to them convincing words concerning their affairs.
· And We have not sent any messenger, but that he should be obeyed by Allah's will. And if when they do injustice unto their souls, then O beloved! They should come to you and then beg forgiveness of Allah and the messenger should intercede for them then surely, they would find Allah Most Relenting, Merciful.
· Then O beloved! By your Lord, they shall not be Muslims until they make you judge in all disputes among themselves, then they find not any impediment in their hearts concerning whatever you decide, and accept from the eve of their hearts.

· And We would surely have guided them to the straight path.

· And if you get bounty of Allah, then he would certainly say, as if there was no friendship between you and him, If I would have gained a great gain.
· Then let them fight in the way of Allah who sell the worldly life for the Hereafter; and whoso fights in the way of Allah, then he is slain or be He victorious then soon We shall give him a great reward.
· And what happened to you that you fight not in the way of Allah, and for the weak men and women and children who are praying, 'O our Lord! Take us out of this town whose people are unjust and give us any defender from Yourself and give us any helper from Yourself.
· The believers fight in the way of Allah and the infidels fight in the way of the devil, then fight against the friends of Satan's undoubtedly, the Satan's strategy is weak.
· Have you not observed those to whom it was said 'restrain your hands, and establish prayer and pay the specified charity (Zakat), then when fighting was made obligatory on them, then some of them began to fear people as they should fear Allah or even more than that, And said they 'O our Lord!

· And when there comes to them any matter of satisfaction or of fear, they spread it about, and if they had referred it towards the Messenger and their men of authority, then surely they would have known its reality from those who investigate and can draw conclusion. And if there had not been the grace of Allah and His Mercy upon you, then surely you would have followed the devil save a few of you.

· Except those who are connected with such a people between whom and you there is a pact, or they come to you because their hearts have no strength to fight against you or fight their own people. And if Allah had so pleased, He would certainly have given them control over you, then they would have surely fought with you. So if they keep aloof from you and fight you not, and make you an offer of peace, then Allah has opened no way for you against them.

And these are against whom We have given you clear authority.
· And it is not befitting Muslims to shed the blood of Muslim save by a mischance and he who kills any Muslim unknowingly, then he has to free a Muslim slave and blood compensation to be paid to the family of the deceased but that they forego.

· Those who take infidels for friends instead of Muslims, Do they seek honour with them then all honour is for Allah.
· And undoubtedly Allah has already sent down to you in the Book that, when you hear the signs of Allah being denied and is being ridiculed, then sit not with them until they engage in some other conversation, otherwise you would be like them too. Undoubtedly, Allah will gather hypocrites and infidels all in Hell.
· Those who use to watch your position, then if you get victory from Allah, they say, 'Were We not with you, and if the infidels had a share, then they say to them, 'Had we not control over you?' and we protected you from the Muslims. Then Allah will decide between you all on the Day of Judgement. And Allah will not make a way for the infidels against Muslims.
· Undoubtedly, the hypocrites are likely to deceive Allah in their own conjecture and it is He who will kill them making them negligent, and when they stand up for prayer they stand up with a defeated soul (lazily) making a show to the people and remember not Allah but little.
· They are wavering in the midst neither of this side nor of that. And whom Allah leads astray, you shall not then find a way for him.
· 'O believers! Take not infidels for friends except Muslims. Do you wish that you may provide clear proof for Allah against you?
· Undoubtedly, the hypocrites are in the lowest section of the Hell, and you shall never get any helper for them.
· But those who repented, and mended (themselves) and, hold fast by the rope of Allah and made their religion purely; for Allah, then these are with the Muslims. And soon Allah will give a great reward to Muslims.
· And what will Allah do by tormenting you? If you accept the just and accept faith. And Allah is Responsive, Aware.
· Allah likes not the uttering of evil words except one who is being oppressed. And Allah is Hearing, Knowing.
· If you do any good openly or in secret or pardon any one's evil, then undoubtedly, Allah is Pardoning, Powerful.
· Those who disbelieve in Allah and His Messengers and desire to separate from Allah His Messengers and say, 'some we believe and other some we deny,' and desire to envisage a way between believing and disbelieving.
· They are the infidels in truth and We have already prepared a degrading torment for the infidels.
· And those who have believed in Allah and in all of His Messengers and have made no distinction between any of them in believing to them, soon Allah will give their reward and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
· 'O beloved! (Prophet) The people of the Book ask you to bring down a book upon them from heaven but they have already asked Moses a greater thing than this, for said. "Show us Allah openly''. Then thunder overtook them for their sins. Then they took the calf after clear signs had come to them. But We pardoned even that and We gave Moses a clear dominance
· Then We raised the Tur (Mountain) over them for taking convenant with them and said to them, 'enter the gate prostrating'', and said to them. 'Transgress not in the matter of Sabbath' (Saturday of the Jews) and We took from them a firm convenant.
· Then! We cursed them because of their breaking the convenant and that they denied the signs of Allah, and slaying unjustly the prophets and for their saying there are covers on our hearts'. But Allah has sealed their hearts because of their infidelity. So that they do not accept faith but little of them.
· And for this that they committed infidelity and raised a tremendous calumny over Marium.
· And for their saying. We slew the Messiah. Jesus son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah', Whereas they slew him not and neither crucified him, but one was made like him for them. And those who are differing about him, certainly, they are in doubt regarding' him. They have not the least knowledge about it, but merely following a conjecture, and undoubtedly, they slew him' not.
· But Allah raised him up towards Himself, and Allah is Dominant, Wise.
· There is not any one of the people of the Book, who will not believe in him before his death, and he will be a witness against them on the Day of judgement.
· Then on account of great injustice of the Jews, We made unlawful for them some of those pure things that were lawful for them, and because of that, they kept away many from the way of Allah.
· And because they took usury whereas they were prohibited from it, and they consumed people's wealth unjustly, and those of them who became infidels, We have prepared a painful torment for them.
· Yes, but those of them who are firm in knowledge and believe, they believe in that which (O beloved prophet) has been sent down to you and that which was sent down before you, and the establishers of prayer and giver of poor due (Zakat) and the believers in Allah and the Last Day, to such, We shall soon give a great reward.
· Undoubtedly, O beloved Prophet! We have sent to you the revelation as We sent revelation to Nuh and the Prophets after him, and We sent revelation to Abraham, and Ismail and Ishaque and Yaqoob and his children and Issa and Ayub and Yunus and Haroon and Suleman. And We gave to Daud the Book Zaboor (Psalms).
· And to Messengers whom We have already mentioned to you before and to those messengers whom We have not mentioned to you. And Allah infects spoke to Moosa.
· The Messengers bearing good tidings and warning, so that mankind might not have any excuse against Allah after the Messengers. And Allah is Dominant, Wise.
· But O beloved Prophet! Allah is witness to that what He has sent down to you, He has sent it down with His knowledge and the angels are witnesses, And Allah is Sufficient as a witness.
· Those who committed infidelity and kept others away from the way of Allah, undoubtedly they strayed far away.
· Undoubtedly, who committed infidelity and transgressed. Allah will never forgive them, nor will show them any way.
· But the way of the hell, that they will abide therein for ever. And this is easy for Allah.
· 'O people! The Messenger has come to you with truth from your Lord, then believes in him for your own good. And if you commit infidelity, then undoubtedly, to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and in the earth. And Allah is knowing, Wise.
· 'O people of the Book! Exceed not in your religion, and do not say of Allah any thing but truth. The Messiah Issa son of Marium is only the Messenger of Allah and His word that was sent to Mary and a spirit from Him. Then believe in Allah and His Messengers and do not say, 'three'. Refrain for your own good. Allah is the only one God. Far is it from His Holiness that He should have a son. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth. And Allah is Sufficient, as real Doer.
· Messiah scorns not to be a bondman of Allah nor do the near one angel. And whoso scorns from His bondage and is proud, then soon He will gather them all towards Himself.
· Then those who accepted faith and did good deeds, after paying them their wages in full, He will give them more out of His Grace, and those who were scornful and proud, He will give them a painful torment. And they will not find for themselves beside Allah any supporter or helper.
· 'O people! Undoubtedly, a manifest argument has come to you from Allah and We have sent down to you a manifest light.
· Then those who believed in Allah and hold His rope firmly, then soon Allah will cause them to enter His Mercy and Grace and will show them straight way towards Himself.
· 'O beloved Prophet! They ask you for a decree. Say you, "Allah decrees to you in respect of a person who leaves neither father nor child that if a man dies and has no child and he has a sister then his sister has half in his heritage and the man will be the heir of his sister, if the sister has no child. Then if there are two sisters then they have two-third in the heritage and if there are brother, sister, males and females both, then the share of male is equal to the shares of two women. Allah explains for you clearly so that you may not go astray. And Allah knows every thing.
