بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ bismillāhir raḥmānir raḥīm In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful.
1
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاسُ ٱتَّقُوا۟ رَبَّكُمْ ۚ إِنَّ زَلْزَلَةَ ٱلسَّاعَةِ شَىْءٌ عَظِيمٌ yā-ayyuhan nāsut-taqū rabbakum ۚ inna zalzalatas sā`ati shay-un `aẓīm O YOU PEOPLE, fear your Lord. The great upheaval of the Hour will indeed be terrible.
2
يَوْمَ تَرَوْنَهَا تَذْهَلُ كُلُّ مُرْضِعَةٍ عَمَّآ أَرْضَعَتْ وَتَضَعُ كُلُّ ذَاتِ حَمْلٍ حَمْلَهَا وَتَرَى ٱلنَّاسَ سُكَـٰرَىٰ وَمَا هُم بِسُكَـٰرَىٰ وَلَـٰكِنَّ عَذَابَ ٱللَّهِ شَدِيدٌ yawma tarawnahā tadh-halu kullu murḍi`atin `ammā arḍa`at wataḍa`u kullu dhāti ḥamlin ḥamlahā wataran nāsa sukārā wa mā hum bisukārā walākinna `adhāballāhi shadīd The day you see it every suckling female will forget her suckling, and every pregnant female will discharge her burden. You will see men drunk, yet it will not be intoxication. The torment of God will be severe.
3
وَمِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن يُجَـٰدِلُ فِى ٱللَّهِ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ وَيَتَّبِعُ كُلَّ شَيْطَـٰنٍ مَّرِيدٍ wa minan nāsi man yujādilu fillāhi bighayri `il-min wayattabi`u kulla shayṭānin marīd And yet there are men who contend about God without understanding, and follow every wayward devil
4
كُتِبَ عَلَيْهِ أَنَّهُۥ مَن تَوَلَّاهُ فَأَنَّهُۥ يُضِلُّهُۥ وَيَهْدِيهِ إِلَىٰ عَذَابِ ٱلسَّعِيرِ kutiba `alayhi annahu man tawallāhu fa-annahu yuḍilluhu wayahdīhi ilā `adhābis sa`īr Who, it is inscribed, will beguile whoever follows him, and lead him to the torment of Hell.
5
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاسُ إِن كُنتُمْ فِى رَيْبٍ مِّنَ ٱلْبَعْثِ فَإِنَّا خَلَقْنَـٰكُم مِّن تُرَابٍ ثُمَّ مِن نُّطْفَةٍ ثُمَّ مِنْ عَلَقَةٍ ثُمَّ مِن مُّضْغَةٍ مُّخَلَّقَةٍ وَغَيْرِ مُخَلَّقَةٍ لِّنُبَيِّنَ لَكُمْ ۚ وَنُقِرُّ فِى ٱلْأَرْحَامِ مَا نَشَآءُ إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى ثُمَّ نُخْرِجُكُمْ طِفْلًا ثُمَّ لِتَبْلُغُوٓا۟ أَشُدَّكُمْ ۖ وَمِنكُم مَّن يُتَوَفَّىٰ وَمِنكُم مَّن يُرَدُّ إِلَىٰٓ أَرْذَلِ ٱلْعُمُرِ لِكَيْلَا يَعْلَمَ مِنۢ بَعْدِ عِلْمٍ شَيْـًٔا ۚ وَتَرَى ٱلْأَرْضَ هَامِدَةً فَإِذَآ أَنزَلْنَا عَلَيْهَا ٱلْمَآءَ ٱهْتَزَّتْ وَرَبَتْ وَأَنۢبَتَتْ مِن كُلِّ زَوْجٍۭ بَهِيجٍ yā-ayyuhan nāsu in kuntum fī raybin minal ba`thi fa-innā khalaqnākum min turābin thumma min nuṭfatin thumma min `alaqatin thumma min muḍghatim mukhallaqatin waghayri mukhallaqatin linubayyina lakum ۚ wanuqirru fil-arḥāmi mā nashā-u ilā ajalin musamman thumma nukhrijukum ṭiflan thumma litablughū ashuddakum ۖ wa minkum man yutawaffā wa minkum man yuraddu ilā ardhalil `umuri likaylā ya`lama min ba`di `il-min shay-ā ۚ wataral-arḍa hāmidatan fa-idhā anzalnā `alayhal mā-ah-tazzat warabat wa-anbatat min kulli zawjin bahīj If you have any doubt, O men, about being raised to life again, (remember) that We created you from dust, then a drop of semen, then an embryo, then a chewed up lump of flesh shaped and shapeless, that We may reveal (the various steps) to you. We keep what We please in the womb for a certain time, then you come out as a child, then reach the prime of age. Some of you die, some reach the age of dotage when they forget what they knew, having known it once. You see the earth all withered, then We send down rain upon it, and it bestirs itself, swells, and brings forth every kind of beauteous verdure.
6
ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلْحَقُّ وَأَنَّهُۥ يُحْىِ ٱلْمَوْتَىٰ وَأَنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَدِيرٌ dhālika bi-annallāha huwal ḥaqqu wa-annahu yuḥyil mawtā wa-annahu `alā kulli shay-in qadīr That is so for God is the undeniable Reality. It is He who brings the dead to life, for He has power over everything.
7
وَأَنَّ ٱلسَّاعَةَ ءَاتِيَةٌ لَّا رَيْبَ فِيهَا وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَبْعَثُ مَن فِى ٱلْقُبُورِ wa-annas sā`ata ātiyatun lā rayba fīhā wa-annallāha yab`athu man fil qubūr The Hour will come without a doubt, and God will raise those who are dead.
8
وَمِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن يُجَـٰدِلُ فِى ٱللَّهِ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ وَلَا هُدًى وَلَا كِتَـٰبٍ مُّنِيرٍ wa minan nāsi man yujādilu fillāhi bighayri `il-min walā hudan walā kitābin munīr Yet there are some who contend about God without any knowledge or guidance or enlightening Book,
9
ثَانِىَ عِطْفِهِۦ لِيُضِلَّ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ ۖ لَهُۥ فِى ٱلدُّنْيَا خِزْىٌ ۖ وَنُذِيقُهُۥ يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ عَذَابَ ٱلْحَرِيقِ thāniya `iṭfihi liyuḍilla `an sabīlillāh ۖ lahu fid dunyā khizyun ۖ wanudhīquhu yawmal qiyāmati `adhābal ḥarīq Turning their backs that they may lead away from the path of God. For such there is disgrace in the world, and on the Day of Judgement We shall make them taste the torment of burning.
10
ذَٰلِكَ بِمَا قَدَّمَتْ يَدَاكَ وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَيْسَ بِظَلَّـٰمٍ لِّلْعَبِيدِ dhālika bimā qaddamat yadāka wa-annallāha laysa biẓallāmin lil`abīd That is on account of what you had done in the past; yet God is not unjust to His creatures.
11
وَمِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن يَعْبُدُ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ حَرْفٍ ۖ فَإِنْ أَصَابَهُۥ خَيْرٌ ٱطْمَأَنَّ بِهِۦ ۖ وَإِنْ أَصَابَتْهُ فِتْنَةٌ ٱنقَلَبَ عَلَىٰ وَجْهِهِۦ خَسِرَ ٱلدُّنْيَا وَٱلْـَٔاخِرَةَ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلْخُسْرَانُ ٱلْمُبِينُ wa minan nāsi man ya`budullāha `alā ḥarf ۖ fa-in aṣābahu khayruni-ma-anna bih ۖ wa in aṣābat-hu fitnatunin-qalaba `alā wajhihi khasirad dunyā wal-ākhirah ۚ dhālika huwal khusrānul mubīn There are some men who worship God only from the margin. If there is some profit they are content; but if calamity befalls them they turn about, thus losing both this world and the next. This is indeed a palpable loss.
12
يَدْعُوا۟ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مَا لَا يَضُرُّهُۥ وَمَا لَا يَنفَعُهُۥ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلضَّلَـٰلُ ٱلْبَعِيدُ yad`ū min dūnillāhi mā lā yaḍurruhu wa mā lā yanfa`uh ۚ dhālika huwaḍ ḍalālul ba`īd Leaving God they pray to those who cannot harm or profit them. That is the limit of going astray.
13
يَدْعُوا۟ لَمَن ضَرُّهُۥٓ أَقْرَبُ مِن نَّفْعِهِۦ ۚ لَبِئْسَ ٱلْمَوْلَىٰ وَلَبِئْسَ ٱلْعَشِيرُ yad`ū laman ḍarruhu aqrabu min naf`ih ۚ labi-sal mawlā walabi-sal `ashīr They pray to him whose bane is more imminent than his boon: How bad the protector and how bad the associate!
14
إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُدْخِلُ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ جَنَّـٰتٍ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَـٰرُ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَفْعَلُ مَا يُرِيدُ innallāha yudkhilul ladhīna āmanū wa`amiluṣ ṣāliḥāti jannātin tajrī min taḥtihal-anhār ۚ innallāha yaf`alu mā yurīd God will admit those who believe and do the right to gardens full of rippling streams. Verily God does as He pleases.
15
مَن كَانَ يَظُنُّ أَن لَّن يَنصُرَهُ ٱللَّهُ فِى ٱلدُّنْيَا وَٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ فَلْيَمْدُدْ بِسَبَبٍ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَآءِ ثُمَّ لْيَقْطَعْ فَلْيَنظُرْ هَلْ يُذْهِبَنَّ كَيْدُهُۥ مَا يَغِيظُ man kāna yaẓunnu an lan yanṣurahullāhu fid dunyā wal-ākhirati falyamdud bisababin ilas samā-i thummalyaqṭa` falyanẓur hal yudh-hibanna kayduhu mā yaghīẓ He who thinks that God will not help him in this world and the next should stretch a rope to the sky then cut it off and see if his mind is relieved (of doubts) by this stratagem.
16
وَكَذَٰلِكَ أَنزَلْنَـٰهُ ءَايَـٰتٍۭ بَيِّنَـٰتٍ وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَهْدِى مَن يُرِيدُ wakadhālika anzalnāhu āyātin bayyinātin wa-annallāha yahdī man yurīd That is why We have sent down these clear revelations, for God gives guidance whomsoever He please.
17
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَٱلَّذِينَ هَادُوا۟ وَٱلصَّـٰبِـِٔينَ وَٱلنَّصَـٰرَىٰ وَٱلْمَجُوسَ وَٱلَّذِينَ أَشْرَكُوٓا۟ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَفْصِلُ بَيْنَهُمْ يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ شَهِيدٌ innal ladhīna āmanū wal ladhīna hādū waṣ ṣābi-īna wan naṣārā wal majūsa wal ladhīna ashrakū innallāha yafṣilu baynahum yawmal qiyāmah ۚ innallāha `alā kulli shay-in shahīd God will judge between those who believe and the Jews, the Sabians, Christians and the Magians and the idolaters, on the Day of Judgement. Verily God is witness to everything.
18
أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَسْجُدُ لَهُۥ مَن فِى ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَمَن فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَٱلشَّمْسُ وَٱلْقَمَرُ وَٱلنُّجُومُ وَٱلْجِبَالُ وَٱلشَّجَرُ وَٱلدَّوَآبُّ وَكَثِيرٌ مِّنَ ٱلنَّاسِ ۖ وَكَثِيرٌ حَقَّ عَلَيْهِ ٱلْعَذَابُ ۗ وَمَن يُهِنِ ٱللَّهُ فَمَا لَهُۥ مِن مُّكْرِمٍ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَفْعَلُ مَا يَشَآءُ ۩ alam tara annallāha yasjudu lahu man fis samāwāti wa man fil-arḍi wash shamsu wal qamaru wan nujūmu wal jibālu wash shajaru wad dawābbu wakathīrun minan nās ۖ wakathīrun ḥaqqa `alayhil `adhāb ۗ wa man yuhinillāhu famā lahu min mukrim ۚ innallāha yaf`alu mā yashā-u ۩ Do you see how all things in heavens and the earth, the sun, the moon, the stars, the mountains, trees and beasts, and men in abundance, pay homage to God? Yet there are many who deserve the punishment. And whosoever God disgraces will have none to raise him up in honour. God does verily as He will.
19
هَـٰذَانِ خَصْمَانِ ٱخْتَصَمُوا۟ فِى رَبِّهِمْ ۖ فَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ قُطِّعَتْ لَهُمْ ثِيَابٌ مِّن نَّارٍ يُصَبُّ مِن فَوْقِ رُءُوسِهِمُ ٱلْحَمِيمُ hādhāni khaṣmānikh-taṣamū fī rabbihim ۖ fal ladhīna kafarū quṭṭi`at lahum thiyābun min nāriy yuṣabbu min fawqi ru-ūsihimul ḥamīm These two (believers and unbelievers) are disputants, who contend about their Lord. But they who disbelieve will be fitted out with garments of flames. Boiling water will be poured down over their heads
20
يُصْهَرُ بِهِۦ مَا فِى بُطُونِهِمْ وَٱلْجُلُودُ yuṣ-haru bihi mā fī buṭūnihim wal julūd Which will dissolve everything within their bellies, and their skins.
21
وَلَهُم مَّقَـٰمِعُ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ walahum maqāmi`u min ḥadīd There are iron maces for them.
22
كُلَّمَآ أَرَادُوٓا۟ أَن يَخْرُجُوا۟ مِنْهَا مِنْ غَمٍّ أُعِيدُوا۟ فِيهَا وَذُوقُوا۟ عَذَابَ ٱلْحَرِيقِ kullamā arādū an yakhrujū minhā min ghammin u`īdū fīhā wadhūqū `adhābal ḥarīq As often as they try to escape from its anguish they would be put back into (the fire), and taste the torment of burning.
23
إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُدْخِلُ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ جَنَّـٰتٍ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَـٰرُ يُحَلَّوْنَ فِيهَا مِنْ أَسَاوِرَ مِن ذَهَبٍ وَلُؤْلُؤًا ۖ وَلِبَاسُهُمْ فِيهَا حَرِيرٌ innallāha yudkhilul ladhīna āmanū wa`amiluṣ ṣāliḥāti jannātin tajrī min taḥtihal-anhāru yuḥallawna fīhā min asāwira min dhahabin walu-lu-ā ۖ walibāsuhum fīhā ḥarīr God will surely admit those who believe and do the right to gardens with rivers running by, where they will be decked in bracelets of gold and of pearls; and of silk will be their garments.
24
وَهُدُوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱلطَّيِّبِ مِنَ ٱلْقَوْلِ وَهُدُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰ صِرَٰطِ ٱلْحَمِيدِ wahudū ilaṭ ṭayyibi minal qawli wahudū ilā ṣirāṭil ḥamīd They will be guided with gentle words, and guided to the commended path.
25
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ وَيَصُدُّونَ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ وَٱلْمَسْجِدِ ٱلْحَرَامِ ٱلَّذِى جَعَلْنَـٰهُ لِلنَّاسِ سَوَآءً ٱلْعَـٰكِفُ فِيهِ وَٱلْبَادِ ۚ وَمَن يُرِدْ فِيهِ بِإِلْحَادٍۭ بِظُلْمٍ نُّذِقْهُ مِنْ عَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ innal ladhīna kafarū wayaṣuddūna `an sabīlillāhi wal masjidil ḥarāmil ladhī ja`alnāhu linnāsi sawā-anil-`ākifu fīhi wal bād ۚ wa man yurid fīhi bi-ilḥādin biẓul-min nudhiqhu min `adhābin alīm As for those who disbelieve, and obstruct the way of God and the holy Mosque which We have set down for all men, the native and the visitor alike. Whoever puts obstructions in this mischievously will taste of painful punishment.
26
وَإِذْ بَوَّأْنَا لِإِبْرَٰهِيمَ مَكَانَ ٱلْبَيْتِ أَن لَّا تُشْرِكْ بِى شَيْـًٔا وَطَهِّرْ بَيْتِىَ لِلطَّآئِفِينَ وَٱلْقَآئِمِينَ وَٱلرُّكَّعِ ٱلسُّجُودِ wa idh bawwa-nā li-ibrāhīma makānal bayti an lā tushrik bī shay-an waṭahhir baytiya liṭṭā-ifīna wal qā-imīna war rukka`is sujūd When We chose the site of the House for Abraham (We said:) "Associate no one with Me, and clean My House for those who will circumambulate it, stand (in reverence), and bow in homage.
27

They will come to you on foot and riding along distant roads on lean and slender beasts,
28
لِّيَشْهَدُوا۟ مَنَـٰفِعَ لَهُمْ وَيَذْكُرُوا۟ ٱسْمَ ٱللَّهِ فِىٓ أَيَّامٍ مَّعْلُومَـٰتٍ عَلَىٰ مَا رَزَقَهُم مِّنۢ بَهِيمَةِ ٱلْأَنْعَـٰمِ ۖ فَكُلُوا۟ مِنْهَا وَأَطْعِمُوا۟ ٱلْبَآئِسَ ٱلْفَقِيرَ liyash-hadū manāfi`a lahum wayadhkurus-mallāhi fī ayyāmin ma`lūmātin `alā mā razaqahum min bahīmatil-an`ām ۖ fakulū minhā wa-aṭ`imul bā-isal faqīr In order to reach the place of advantage for them, and to pronounce the name of God on appointed days over cattle He has given them for food; then eat of the meat and feed the needy and the poor.
29
ثُمَّ لْيَقْضُوا۟ تَفَثَهُمْ وَلْيُوفُوا۟ نُذُورَهُمْ وَلْيَطَّوَّفُوا۟ بِٱلْبَيْتِ ٱلْعَتِيقِ thummalyaqḍū tafathahum walūfū nudhūrahum walyaṭṭawwafū bil baytil `atīq Let them then attend to their persons and complete the rites of pilgrimage, fulfil their vows and circuit round the ancient House.
30
ذَٰلِكَ وَمَن يُعَظِّمْ حُرُمَـٰتِ ٱللَّهِ فَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لَّهُۥ عِندَ رَبِّهِۦ ۗ وَأُحِلَّتْ لَكُمُ ٱلْأَنْعَـٰمُ إِلَّا مَا يُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْكُمْ ۖ فَٱجْتَنِبُوا۟ ٱلرِّجْسَ مِنَ ٱلْأَوْثَـٰنِ وَٱجْتَنِبُوا۟ قَوْلَ ٱلزُّورِ dhālika wa man yu`aẓẓim ḥurumātillāhi fahuwa khayrul lahu `inda rabbih ۗ wa-uḥillat lakumul-an`āmu illā mā yutlā `alaykum ۖ fajtanibur rijsa minal-awthāni wajtanibū qawlaz zūr Apart from this, whoever respects the sacred ordinances of God, will find a better reward for him with his Lord. You are allowed to eat all cattle except those already mentioned to you. Avoid the repugnance of idols, and false and frivolous talk.
31
حُنَفَآءَ لِلَّهِ غَيْرَ مُشْرِكِينَ بِهِۦ ۚ وَمَن يُشْرِكْ بِٱللَّهِ فَكَأَنَّمَا خَرَّ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ فَتَخْطَفُهُ ٱلطَّيْرُ أَوْ تَهْوِى بِهِ ٱلرِّيحُ فِى مَكَانٍ سَحِيقٍ ḥunafā-a lillāhi ghayra mushrikīna bih ۚ wa man yushrik billāhi faka-annamā kharra minas samā-i fatakhṭafuhuṭ ṭayru aw tahwy bihir rīḥu fī makānin saḥīq Turn uprightly to God without ascribing compeers to Him; for he who associates any one with God is like a thing that falls from the sky and is either snatched away by birds or carried far away by the wind.
32
ذَٰلِكَ وَمَن يُعَظِّمْ شَعَـٰٓئِرَ ٱللَّهِ فَإِنَّهَا مِن تَقْوَى ٱلْقُلُوبِ dhālika wa man yu`aẓẓim sha`ā-irallāhi fa-innahā min taqwal qulūb All this, and honouring the offerings to God, comes from purity of heart.

34
وَلِكُلِّ أُمَّةٍ جَعَلْنَا مَنسَكًا لِّيَذْكُرُوا۟ ٱسْمَ ٱللَّهِ عَلَىٰ مَا رَزَقَهُم مِّنۢ بَهِيمَةِ ٱلْأَنْعَـٰمِ ۗ فَإِلَـٰهُكُمْ إِلَـٰهٌ وَٰحِدٌ فَلَهُۥٓ أَسْلِمُوا۟ ۗ وَبَشِّرِ ٱلْمُخْبِتِينَ walikulli ummatin ja`alnā mansakal liyadhkurus-mallāhi `alā mā razaqahum min bahīmatil-an`ām ۗ fa-ilāhukum ilāhun wāḥidun falahu aslimū ۗ wabashhiril mukhbitīn For every community We have ordained certain rites that they may commemorate the name of God by reading it over the cattle We have given them for sacrifice. Your God is one God, so be obedient to Him. Give good tidings to those who bow in obedience to God,
35
ٱلَّذِينَ إِذَا ذُكِرَ ٱللَّهُ وَجِلَتْ قُلُوبُهُمْ وَٱلصَّـٰبِرِينَ عَلَىٰ مَآ أَصَابَهُمْ وَٱلْمُقِيمِى ٱلصَّلَوٰةِ وَمِمَّا رَزَقْنَـٰهُمْ يُنفِقُونَ alladhīna idhā dhukirallāhu wajilat qulūbuhum waṣ ṣābirīna `alā mā aṣābahum wal muqīmiṣ ṣalāti wa mimmā razaqnāhum yunfiqūn Whose hearts are filled with awe when the name of God is mentioned before them, who endure with fortitude what befalls them, and fulfil their moral obligations, and expend of what We have given them.
36
وَٱلْبُدْنَ جَعَلْنَـٰهَا لَكُم مِّن شَعَـٰٓئِرِ ٱللَّهِ لَكُمْ فِيهَا خَيْرٌ ۖ فَٱذْكُرُوا۟ ٱسْمَ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيْهَا صَوَآفَّ ۖ فَإِذَا وَجَبَتْ جُنُوبُهَا فَكُلُوا۟ مِنْهَا وَأَطْعِمُوا۟ ٱلْقَانِعَ وَٱلْمُعْتَرَّ ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ سَخَّرْنَـٰهَا لَكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ wal budna ja`alnāhā lakum min sha`ā-irillāhi lakum fīhā khayr ۖ fadhkurus-mallāhi `alayhā ṣawāff ۖ fa-idhā wajabat junūbuhā fakulū minhā wa-aṭ`imul qāni`a wal mu`tarr ۚ kadhālika sakhharnāhā lakum la`allakum tashkurūn We have made the camels signs of God for you. There is good for you in this. So pronounce the name of God over them as they stand with their forefeet in a line. When they have fallen (slaughtered) on their sides, eat of (their meat) and feed those who are content with little, and those who supplicate. That is why We have brought them under your subjugation so that you may be grateful.
37
لَن يَنَالَ ٱللَّهَ لُحُومُهَا وَلَا دِمَآؤُهَا وَلَـٰكِن يَنَالُهُ ٱلتَّقْوَىٰ مِنكُمْ ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ سَخَّرَهَا لَكُمْ لِتُكَبِّرُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ مَا هَدَىٰكُمْ ۗ وَبَشِّرِ ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ lan yanālallāha luḥūmuhā walā dimā-uhā walākin yanāluhut taqwā minkum ۚ kadhālika sakhharahā lakum litukabbirullāha `alā mā hadākum ۗ wabashhiril muḥsinīn It is not their meat or blood that reaches God: It is the fealty of your heart that reaches him. That is why He has subjugated them to you that you may glorify God for having shown you the way. So give glad tidings to those who are doers of good.

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُدَٰفِعُ عَنِ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ ۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ كُلَّ خَوَّانٍ كَفُورٍ innallāha yudāfi`u `anil ladhīna āmanū ۗ innallāha lā yuḥibbu kulla khawwānin kafūr God will certainly defend the believers. Surely God does not like the traitors who deny the truth.
39
أُذِنَ لِلَّذِينَ يُقَـٰتَلُونَ بِأَنَّهُمْ ظُلِمُوا۟ ۚ وَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ نَصْرِهِمْ لَقَدِيرٌ udhina lilladhīna yuqātalūna bi-annahum ẓulimū ۚ wa innallāha `alā naṣrihim laqadīr Permission is granted those (to take up arms) who fight because they were oppressed. God is certainly able to give help to those
40

And if God had not restrained some men through some others, monastries, churches, synagogues and mosques, where the name of God is honoured most, would have been razed. God will surely help those who help Him, -- verily God is all-powerful and all-mighty, --
41
ٱلَّذِينَ إِن مَّكَّنَّـٰهُمْ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ أَقَامُوا۟ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَءَاتَوُا۟ ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ وَأَمَرُوا۟ بِٱلْمَعْرُوفِ وَنَهَوْا۟ عَنِ ٱلْمُنكَرِ ۗ وَلِلَّهِ عَـٰقِبَةُ ٱلْأُمُورِ alladhīna in makkannāhum fil-arḍi aqāmuṣ ṣalāta wa-ātawuz zakāta wa-amarū bil ma`rūfi wanahaw `anil munkar ۗ walillāhi `āqibatul-umūr Those who would be firm in devotion, give zakat, and enjoin what is good and forbid what is wrong, if We gave them authority in the land. But the resultance of things rests with God.
42

43
وَقَوْمُ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ وَقَوْمُ لُوطٍ waqawmu ibrāhīma waqawmu lūṭ And the people of Abraham and Lot,
44

Moses was also accused of lies. So I allowed the infidels respite and then seized them. How was My reprobation then!
45

How many a well and fortress reinforced lie abandoned!

It is not the eyes alone that do not see, oblivious are the hearts within their breasts.
47
وَيَسْتَعْجِلُونَكَ بِٱلْعَذَابِ وَلَن يُخْلِفَ ٱللَّهُ وَعْدَهُۥ ۚ وَإِنَّ يَوْمًا عِندَ رَبِّكَ كَأَلْفِ سَنَةٍ مِّمَّا تَعُدُّونَ wayasta`jilūnaka bil `adhābi walan yukhlifallāhu wa`dah ۚ wa inna yawman `inda rabbika ka-alfi sanatim mimmā ta`uddūn That is how they ask you to hasten the punishment; but God does not go back on His promise. Verily a day with your Lord is equal by your reckoning to a thousand years.
48
وَكَأَيِّن مِّن قَرْيَةٍ أَمْلَيْتُ لَهَا وَهِىَ ظَالِمَةٌ ثُمَّ أَخَذْتُهَا وَإِلَىَّ ٱلْمَصِيرُ waka-ayyin min qaryatin amlaytu lahā wahiya ẓālimatun thumma akhadhtuhā wa ilayyal maṣīr To how many habitations did We give respite, though given to wickedness, and then seized them. To Me they had to come back in the end.

Yet God abrogates what Satan interpolates; then He confirms His revelations, for God is all-knowing and all-wise.

54

Verily God guides those who believe, to the even path.
55
وَلَا يَزَالُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ فِى مِرْيَةٍ مِّنْهُ حَتَّىٰ تَأْتِيَهُمُ ٱلسَّاعَةُ بَغْتَةً أَوْ يَأْتِيَهُمْ عَذَابُ يَوْمٍ عَقِيمٍ walā yazālul ladhīna kafarū fī miryatim minhu ḥattā ta-tiyahumus sā`atu baghtatan aw ya-tiyahum `adhābu yawmin `aqīm The infidels will remain in doubt about it till the Hour overtakes them unawares, or the punishment of the barren day destructive should come upon them.

Then those who had come to believe and done the right will be in gardens of delight.

Verily God is forgiving and kind.

63

Truly God is benign and well-informed.

And the boats ply in the ocean by His command. He holds the sky in position lest it should fall upon the earth save by His dispensation. Verily God is compassionate and kind to men.
66
وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِىٓ أَحْيَاكُمْ ثُمَّ يُمِيتُكُمْ ثُمَّ يُحْيِيكُمْ ۗ إِنَّ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنَ لَكَفُورٌ wahuwal ladhī aḥyākum thumma yumītukum thumma yuḥyīkum ۗ innal-insāna lakafūr It is He who gives you life, then makes you die; then He will bring you back to life again. Man is surely most ungrateful.

So they should not contend with you in this matter; and you should go on calling them to your Lord. You are surely on the right path.

This is surely in accordance with the law. This is certainly how (the law of) God works inevitably.
71
وَيَعْبُدُونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مَا لَمْ يُنَزِّلْ بِهِۦ سُلْطَـٰنًا وَمَا لَيْسَ لَهُم بِهِۦ عِلْمٌ ۗ وَمَا لِلظَّـٰلِمِينَ مِن نَّصِيرٍ waya`budūna min dūnillāhi mā lam yunazzil bihi sulṭānan wa mā laysa lahum bihi `il-m ۗ wa mā liẓẓālimīna min naṣīr Yet they worship in place of God that for which no authority has been sent to them, and of which they have no knowledge. The wicked will have none to help them.

They can hardly restrain themselves from attacking those who recite Our revelations. Tell them: "Should I give you news of something worse than this?" -- Hell, which God has promised the infidels. How evil a destination!

How weak the seeker and how weak the sought!

He has chosen you and laid no hardship on you in the way of faith, the faith of your forbear Abraham. He named you Muslim earlier, and in this (Qur'an), in order that the Prophet be witness over you, and you be witness over mankind. So be firm in devotion, pay the zakat, and hold on firmly to God. He is your friend: How excellent a friend is He, how excellent a helper!
