Ya ayyuhal-ladhina amanu awfu bil-‘uqud. Uhillat lakum bahimatul-an‘ami illa ma yutla ‘alaykum ghayra muhilliṣ-ṣaydi wa antum hurum. Innallaha yahkumu ma yurid.

O believers, fulfil your contracts. Livestock animals are made lawful for you, except what is recited to you, while hunting is not permitted when you are in ihram. Indeed, Allah commands what He wills.

Ya ayyuhal-ladhina amanu la tuhillu sha‘a’irallahi wa lash-shahral-harama wa lal-hadya wa lal-qala’ida wa la ammin al-baytal-harama yabtaghuna fadlam mir-rabbihim wa ridwana. Wa idha halaltum fastadu. Wa la yajrimannakum shana’anu qawmin an saddukum ‘anil-masjidil-harami an ta‘tadu. Wa ta‘awanu ‘alal-birri wat-taqwa, wa la ta‘awanu ‘alal-ithmi wal-‘udwan. Wattaqullah. Innallaha shadidul-‘iqab.

O believers, do not violate Allah’s sacred rites, the sacred month, the sacrificial animals, the garlands, or those travelling to the Sacred House seeking bounty and pleasure from their Lord. When you leave ihram, then hunt. Do not let hatred of a people who stopped you from the Sacred Mosque lead you to transgress. Cooperate in righteousness and taqwa, and do not cooperate in sin and aggression. Fear Allah. Indeed, Allah is severe in punishment.

Hurrimat ‘alaykumul-maytatu wad-damu wa lahmul-khinziri wa ma uhilla lighayrillahi bihi... Al-yawma akmaltu lakum dinakum wa atmamtu ‘alaykum ni‘mati wa raditu lakumul-Islama dina. Famanidturra fi makhmasatin ghayra mutajanifil-li-ithmin fa innallaha ghafurur-rahim.

Forbidden to you are carrion, blood, pork, what is dedicated to other than Allah, animals killed by strangling, beating, falling, goring, or partly eaten by predators unless you slaughter them properly, what is sacrificed on altars, and seeking decisions by divining arrows. This is disobedience. Today I have perfected your religion for you, completed My favour upon you, and chosen Islam as your religion. But whoever is forced by severe hunger without intending sin, Allah is Most Forgiving, Most Merciful.

Yas’alunaka madha uhilla lahum. Qul uhilla lakumut-tayyibat, wa ma ‘allamtum minal-jawarihi mukallibina tu‘allimunahunna mimma ‘allamakumullah. Fakulu mimma amsakna ‘alaykum wadhkurusmallahi ‘alayh. Wattaqullah. Innallaha sari‘ul-hisab.

They ask you what is lawful for them. Say, lawful for you are all good pure foods and what trained hunting animals catch for you, trained as Allah taught you. So eat from what they catch for you and mention Allah’s name over it. Fear Allah. Indeed, Allah is swift in account.

Al-yawma uhilla lakumut-tayyibat. Wa ta‘amul-ladhina utul-kitaba hillul lakum wa ta‘amukum hillul lahum. Wal-muhsanatu minal-mu’minati wal-muhsanatu minal-ladhina utul-kitaba min qablikum idha ataytumuhunna ujurahunna muhsinina ghayra musafihina wa la muttakhidhi akhdan. Wa man yakfur bil-imani faqad habita ‘amaluhu wa huwa fil-akhirati minal-khasirin.

Today all good pure foods are lawful for you. The food of those given the Scripture is lawful for you, and your food is lawful for them. Also lawful are chaste believing women and chaste women from those given the Scripture before you, when you give them their dowries in marriage, seeking chastity, not fornication or secret lovers. Whoever rejects faith, his deeds are lost, and in the Hereafter he will be among the losers.

Ya ayyuhal-ladhina amanu idha qumtum ilas-salati faghsilu wujuhakum wa aydiyakum ilal-marafiqi wamsahu biru’usikum wa arjulakum ilal-ka‘bayn. Wa in kuntum junuban fattahharu. Wa in kuntum marda aw ‘ala safarin aw ja’a ahadum minkum minal-gha’iti aw lamastumun-nisa’a falam tajidu ma’an fatayammamu sa‘idan tayyiban famsahu biwujuhikum wa aydikum minhu. Ma yuridullahu liyaj‘ala ‘alaykum min harajin walakin yuridu liyutahhirakum wa liyutimma ni‘matahu ‘alaykum la‘allakum tashkurun.

O believers, when you rise for prayer, wash your faces and your hands up to the elbows, wipe your heads, and wash your feet up to the ankles. If you are in a state of full impurity, then purify yourselves. But if you are ill, on a journey, one of you comes from relieving himself, or you have had contact with women and you find no water, then perform tayammum with clean earth and wipe your faces and hands with it. Allah does not want to place difficulty upon you, but He wants to purify you and complete His favour upon you so that you may be grateful.

Wadhkuru ni‘matallahi ‘alaykum wa mithaqahul-ladhi wathaqakum bihi idh qultum sami‘na wa ata‘na. Wattaqullah. Innallaha ‘alimun bidhatis-sudur.

Remember Allah’s favour upon you and His covenant by which He bound you when you said, “We hear and we obey.” Have taqwa of Allah. Indeed, Allah knows what is within the hearts.

Ya ayyuhal-ladhina amanu kunu qawwamina lillahi shuhada’a bil-qist. Wa la yajrimannakum shana’anu qawmin ‘ala alla ta‘dilu. I‘dilu huwa aqrabu lit-taqwa. Wattaqullah. Innallaha khabirum bima ta‘malun.

O believers, stand firmly for Allah as witnesses with justice. Do not let hatred of a people make you avoid justice. Be just, that is nearer to taqwa. And have taqwa of Allah. Indeed, Allah is All-Aware of what you do.

Wa‘adallahu alladhina amanu wa ‘amilus-salihat. Lahum maghfiratun wa ajrun ‘azim.

Allah has promised those who believe and do righteous deeds that they will have forgiveness and a great reward.

Walladhina kafaru wa kadhdhabu bi ayatina ula’ika ashabul-jahim.

But those who disbelieve and deny Our signs, those are the companions of the Blazing Fire.

Ya ayyuhal-ladhina amanu udhkuru ni‘matallahi ‘alaykum idh hamma qawmun an yabsutu ilaykum aydiyahum fakaffa aydiyahum ‘ankum. Wattaqullah. Wa ‘alallahi falyatawakkalil-mu’minun.

O believers, remember Allah’s favour upon you when a people intended to stretch their hands against you, but He restrained their hands from you. Have taqwa of Allah, and upon Allah let the believers rely.

Wa laqad akhadhallahu mithaqa bani Isra’ila wa ba‘athna minhumuthnay ‘ashara naqiba. Wa qalallahu inni ma‘akum. La’in aqamtumus-salata wa ataytumuz-zakata wa amantum birusuli wa ‘azzartumuhum wa aqradtumullaha qardan hasanan la’ukaffiranna ‘ankum sayyi’atikum wa la’udkhilannakum jannatin tajri min tahtihal-anhar. Faman kafara ba‘da dhalika minkum faqad dalla sawa’as-sabil.

Allah certainly took the covenant of the Children of Israel, and We appointed from among them twelve leaders. Allah said, “I am with you. If you establish prayer, give zakah, believe in My messengers, support them, and lend Allah a good loan, I will surely remove your sins from you and admit you into Gardens beneath which rivers flow. But whoever among you disbelieves after that has truly strayed from the straight way.”

Fabima naqdihim mithaqahum la‘annahum wa ja‘alna qulubāhum qasiyah. Yuharrifunal-kalima ‘am mawadi‘ihi wa nasu hazzam mimma dhukkiru bih. Wa la tazalu tattali‘u ‘ala kha’inatim minhum illa qalilam minhum. Fa‘fu ‘anhum wasfah. Innallaha yuhibbul-muhsinin.

Because they broke their covenant, We cursed them and made their hearts hard. They distort words from their proper places and forgot a portion of what they were reminded of. You will continue to discover betrayal from them, except a few of them. So pardon them and overlook. Indeed, Allah loves those who do good with excellence.

Wa minal-ladhina qalu inna nasara akhadhna mithaqahum fanasu hazzam mimma dhukkiru bihi fa aghrayna baynahumul-‘adawata wal-baghda’a ila yawmil-qiyamah. Wa sawfa yunabbi’uhumullahu bima kanu yasna‘un.

And from those who said, “We are Christians,” We took their covenant, but they forgot a portion of what they were reminded of. So We stirred among them enmity and hatred until the Day of Resurrection. Allah will soon inform them of what they used to do.

Ya ahlal-kitabi qad ja’akum rasuluna yubayyinu lakum kathiram mimma kuntum tukhfuna minal-kitabi wa ya‘fu ‘an kathir. Qad ja’akum minallahi nurun wa kitabum mubin.

O People of the Scripture, Our Messenger has come to you, making clear to you much of what you used to hide of the Scripture and overlooking much. There has certainly come to you from Allah a light and a clear Book.

Yahdi bihillahu manittaba‘a ridwanahu subulas-salami wa yukhrijuhum minaz-zulumati ilan-nuri bi idhnihi wa yahdihim ila siratim mustaqim.

Through it, Allah guides those who seek His pleasure to the ways of peace, brings them out of darkness into light by His permission, and guides them to a straight path.

Laqad kafaral-ladhina qalu innallaha huwal-Masihu ibnu Maryam. Qul faman yamliku minallahi shay’an in arada an yuhlikal-Masiha ibna Maryama wa ummahu wa man fil-ardi jami‘a. Wa lillahi mulkus-samawati wal-ardi wa ma baynahuma. Yakhluqu ma yasha’. Wallahu ‘ala kulli shay’in qadir.

Those who say, “Allah is the Messiah, son of Maryam,” have certainly disbelieved. Say, “Who could prevent Allah at all if He wanted to destroy the Messiah, son of Maryam, his mother, and everyone on earth?” To Allah belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them. He creates whatever He wills, and Allah is powerful over everything.

Wa qalatil-yahudu wan-nasara nahnu abna’ullahi wa ahibba’uh. Qul falima yu‘adhdhibukum bidhunubikum. Bal antum basharum mimman khalaq. Yaghfiru liman yasha’u wa yu‘adhdhibu man yasha’. Wa lillahi mulkus-samawati wal-ardi wa ma baynahuma wa ilayhil-masir.

The Jews and Christians said, “We are Allah’s children and His beloved ones.” Say, “Then why does He punish you for your sins?” Rather, you are human beings from among those He created. He forgives whom He wills and punishes whom He wills. To Allah belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them, and to Him is the final return.

Ya ahlal-kitabi qad ja’akum rasuluna yubayyinu lakum ‘ala fatratim minar-rusuli an taqulu ma ja’ana mim bashirin wa la nadhir. Faqad ja’akum bashirun wa nadhir. Wallahu ‘ala kulli shay’in qadir.

O People of the Scripture, Our Messenger has certainly come to you, making things clear to you after an interval without messengers, so that you cannot say, “No bringer of good news or warner came to us.” A bringer of good news and a warner has indeed come to you. And Allah is powerful over everything.

Wa idh qala Musa liqawmihi ya qawmi udhkuru ni‘matallahi ‘alaykum idh ja‘ala fikum anbiya’a wa ja‘alakum mulukan wa atakum ma lam yu’ti ahadam minal-‘alamin.

And remember when Musa said to his people, “O my people, remember Allah’s favour upon you when He placed prophets among you, made you rulers, and gave you what He had not given anyone else among the worlds.”

Ya qawmidkhulul-ardal-muqaddasatal-lati kataballahu lakum wa la tartaddu ‘ala adbarikum fatanqalibu khasirin.

O my people, enter the holy land which Allah has assigned for you, and do not turn back, or you will become losers.

Qalu ya Musa inna fiha qawman jabbarina wa inna lan nadkhulaha hatta yakhruju minha fa in yakhruju minha fa inna dakhilun.

They said, “O Musa, there are powerful people in it, and we will never enter it until they leave it. If they leave it, then we will enter.”

Qala rajulani minal-ladhina yakhafuna an‘amallahu ‘alayhima udkhulu ‘alayhimul-baba fa idha dakhaltumuhu fa innakum ghalibun. Wa ‘alallahi fatawakkalu in kuntum mu’minin.

Two men from those who feared Allah, whom Allah had blessed, said, “Enter upon them through the gate. Once you enter it, you will surely be victorious. And rely upon Allah if you are believers.”

Qalu ya Musa inna lan nadkhulaha abadam ma damu fiha. Fadhhab anta wa rabbuka faqatila inna hahuna qa‘idun.

They said, “O Musa, we will never enter it as long as they remain in it. So go, you and your Lord, and fight. We are sitting right here.”

Qala rabbi inni la amliku illa nafsi wa akhi fafruq baynana wa baynal-qawmil-fasiqin.

He said, “My Lord, I have control over none except myself and my brother, so separate between us and the defiantly disobedient people.”

Qala fa innaha muharramatun ‘alayhim arba‘ina sanah. Yatihuna fil-ard. Fala ta’sa ‘alal-qawmil-fasiqin.

Allah said, “Then it is forbidden to them for forty years. They will wander through the land. So do not grieve over the defiantly disobedient people.”

Watlu ‘alayhim naba’a ibnay Adama bil-haqqi idh qarraba qurbanan fatuqubbila min ahadihima wa lam yutaqabbal minal-akhar. Qala la’aqtulannak. Qala innama yataqabbalullahu minal-muttaqin.

Recite to them the true story of the two sons of Adam, when they both offered a sacrifice. It was accepted from one of them but not accepted from the other. He said, “I will surely kill you.” The other replied, “Allah only accepts from those who have taqwa.”

La’im basatta ilayya yadaka litaqtulani ma ana bibasitin yadiya ilayka li’aqtulak. Inni akhafullaha rabbal-‘alamin.

If you stretch your hand toward me to kill me, I will not stretch my hand toward you to kill you. Indeed, I fear Allah, the Lord of all worlds.

Inni uridu an tabu’a bi ithmi wa ithmika fatakuna min ashabin-nar. Wa dhalika jaza’uz-zalimin.

Indeed, I want you to bear my sin and your sin, then become among the companions of the Fire. That is the reward of the wrongdoers.

Fatawwa‘at lahu nafsuhu qatla akhihi faqatalahu fa asbaha minal-khasirin.

So his soul persuaded him to kill his brother, and he killed him. Then he became among the losers.

Faba‘athallahu ghuraban yabhathu fil-ardi liyuriyahu kayfa yuwari saw’ata akhih. Qala ya waylata a‘ajaztu an akuna mithla hadhal-ghurabi fa uwariya saw’ata akhi. Fa asbaha minan-nadimin.

Then Allah sent a crow scratching in the ground to show him how to cover the body of his brother. He said, “Woe to me! Was I unable to be like this crow and cover the body of my brother?” Then he became among the regretful.

Min ajli dhalika katabna ‘ala bani Isra’ila annahu man qatala nafsan bighayri nafsin aw fasadin fil-ardi faka’annama qatalan-nasa jami‘a. Wa man ahyaha faka’annama ahyan-nasa jami‘a. Wa laqad ja’athum rusuluna bil-bayyinat thumma inna kathiram minhum ba‘da dhalika fil-ardi lamusrifun.

Because of that, We decreed upon the Children of Israel that whoever kills a soul unless for a soul or for corruption in the land, it is as if he has killed all mankind. And whoever saves one, it is as if he has saved all mankind. Our messengers had certainly come to them with clear proofs, yet many of them after that were excessive in the land.

Innama jaza’ul-ladhina yuharibunallaha wa rasulahu wa yas‘awna fil-ardi fasadan an yuqattalu aw yusallabu aw tuqatta‘a aydihim wa arjuluhum min khilafin aw yunfaw minal-ard. Dhalika lahum khizyun fid-dunya wa lahum fil-akhirati ‘adhabun ‘azim.

The recompense of those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and strive to spread corruption in the land is that they be killed, crucified, have their hands and feet cut off from opposite sides, or be exiled from the land. That is disgrace for them in this world, and for them in the Hereafter is a great punishment.

Illal-ladhina tabu min qabli an taqdiru ‘alayhim. Fa‘lamu annallaha ghafurur-rahim.

Except those who repent before you overpower them. Know that Allah is Most Forgiving, Most Merciful.

Ya ayyuhal-ladhina amanuttaqullaha wabtaghu ilayhil-wasilata wa jahidu fi sabilihi la‘allakum tuflihun.

O believers, have taqwa of Allah, seek the means of nearness to Him, and strive in His way so that you may succeed.

Innal-ladhina kafaru law anna lahum ma fil-ardi jami‘an wa mithlahu ma‘ahu liyaftadu bihi min ‘adhabi yawmil-qiyamati ma tuqubbila minhum. Wa lahum ‘adhabun alim.

Indeed, those who disbelieve, if they had everything on earth and as much again with it to ransom themselves from the punishment of the Day of Resurrection, it would not be accepted from them. And for them is a painful punishment.

Yuriduna an yakhruju minan-nari wa ma hum bikharijina minha. Wa lahum ‘adhabum muqim.

They will want to leave the Fire, but they will not be leaving it. And for them is a lasting punishment.

Was-sariqu was-sariqatu faqta‘u aydiyahuma jaza’an bima kasaba nakalam minallah. Wallahu ‘azizun hakim.

As for the male thief and the female thief, cut off their hands as a recompense for what they earned and as a deterrent from Allah. And Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise.

Faman taba mim ba‘di zulmihi wa aslaha fa innallaha yatubu ‘alayh. Innallaha ghafurur-rahim.

But whoever repents after his wrongdoing and corrects himself, then Allah will surely turn to him in forgiveness. Indeed, Allah is Most Forgiving, Most Merciful.

Alam ta‘lam annallaha lahu mulkus-samawati wal-ard. Yu‘adhdhibu man yasha’u wa yaghfiru liman yasha’. Wallahu ‘ala kulli shay’in qadir.

Do you not know that to Allah belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth? He punishes whom He wills and forgives whom He wills. And Allah is powerful over everything.

Ya ayyuhar-rasulu la yahzunkal-ladhina yusari‘una fil-kufri minal-ladhina qalu amanna bi afwahihim wa lam tu’min qulubuhum, wa minal-ladhina hadu. Samma‘una lil-kadhibi samma‘una liqawmin akharina lam ya’tuk. Yuharrifunal-kalima mim ba‘di mawadi‘ih. Yaquluna in utitum hadha fakhudhuhu wa in lam tu’tawhu fahdharu. Wa man yuridillahu fitnatahu falan tamlika lahu minallahi shay’a. Ula’ikal-ladhina lam yuridillahu an yutahhira qulubahum. Lahum fid-dunya khizyun wa lahum fil-akhirati ‘adhabun ‘azim.

O Messenger, do not let those who rush into disbelief grieve you, from those who say with their mouths, “We believe,” while their hearts do not believe, and from those who are Jews. They listen eagerly to lies and listen for another people who have not come to you. They distort words after their proper places, saying, “If you are given this, then take it, but if you are not given it, then beware.” Whoever Allah wills to test, you can never protect him from Allah at all. Those are the ones Allah does not will to purify their hearts. For them is disgrace in this world, and for them in the Hereafter is a great punishment.

Samma‘una lil-kadhibi akkaluna lis-suht. Fa in ja’uka fahkum baynahum aw a‘rid ‘anhum. Wa in tu‘rid ‘anhum falan yadurruka shay’a. Wa in hakamta fahkum baynahum bil-qist. Innallaha yuhibbul-muqsitin.

They are eager listeners to lies and devourers of unlawful gain. If they come to you, then judge between them or turn away from them. If you turn away from them, they will never harm you at all. But if you judge, then judge between them with justice. Indeed, Allah loves those who act justly.

Wa kayfa yuhakkimunaka wa ‘indahumut-Tawratu fiha hukmullahi thumma yatawallawna mim ba‘di dhalik. Wa ma ula’ika bil-mu’minin.

How do they make you judge while they have the Torah, in which is Allah’s judgment, then they turn away after that? Those are not believers.

Inna anzalnat-Tawrata fiha hudan wa nur. Yahkumu bihan-nabiyyunal-ladhina aslamu lilladhina hadu, war-rabbaniyyuna wal-ahbaru bima istuhfizu min kitabillahi wa kanu ‘alayhi shuhada’. Fala takhshawun-nasa wakhshawni wa la tashtaru bi ayati thamanan qalila. Wa man lam yahkum bima anzalallahu fa ula’ika humul-kafirun.

Indeed, We sent down the Torah, in which was guidance and light. The prophets who submitted judged by it for those who were Jews, as did the rabbis and scholars, because they were entrusted with preserving Allah’s Book and were witnesses over it. So do not fear people, but fear Me, and do not exchange My verses for a small price. Whoever does not judge by what Allah has sent down, those are the disbelievers.

Wa katabna ‘alayhim fiha annan-nafsa bin-nafsi wal-‘ayna bil-‘ayni wal-anfa bil-anfi wal-udhuna bil-udhuni was-sinna bis-sinni wal-juruha qisas. Faman tasaddaqa bihi fahuwa kaffaratun lah. Wa man lam yahkum bima anzalallahu fa ula’ika humuz-zalimun.

We prescribed for them in it: life for life, eye for eye, nose for nose, ear for ear, tooth for tooth, and wounds with equal retaliation. But whoever gives it up as charity, it is an expiation for him. Whoever does not judge by what Allah has sent down, those are the wrongdoers.

Wa qaffayna ‘ala atharihim bi ‘Isa ibni Maryama musaddiqal lima bayna yadayhi minat-Tawrah. Wa ataynahul-Injila fihi hudan wa nurun wa musaddiqal lima bayna yadayhi minat-Tawrah wa hudan wa maw‘izatal lil-muttaqin.

We followed in their footsteps with Isa, son of Maryam, confirming what came before him of the Torah. We gave him the Gospel, in which was guidance and light, confirming what came before it of the Torah, and as guidance and instruction for those who have taqwa.

Wal-yahkum ahlul-Injili bima anzalallahu fih. Wa man lam yahkum bima anzalallahu fa ula’ika humul-fasiqun.

Let the people of the Gospel judge by what Allah sent down in it. Whoever does not judge by what Allah has sent down, those are the defiantly disobedient.

Wa anzalna ilaykal-kitaba bil-haqqi musaddiqal lima bayna yadayhi minal-kitabi wa muhayminan ‘alayh. Fahkum baynahum bima anzalallahu wa la tattabi‘ ahwa’ahum ‘amma ja’aka minal-haqq. Likullin ja‘alna minkum shir‘atan wa minhaja. Wa law sha’allahu laja‘alakum ummatan wahidah, walakin liyabluwakum fi ma atakum. Fastabiqul-khayrat. Ilallahi marji‘ukum jami‘an fayunabbi’ukum bima kuntum fihi takhtalifun.

We have sent down to you the Book in truth, confirming what came before it of Scripture and as a guardian over it. So judge between them by what Allah has sent down, and do not follow their desires away from the truth that has come to you. For each of you We made a law and a way. If Allah had willed, He could have made you one community, but He tests you in what He has given you. So race toward good deeds. To Allah is your return all together, and He will inform you about that in which you used to differ.

Wa anihkum baynahum bima anzalallahu wa la tattabi‘ ahwa’ahum wahdharhum an yaftinuka ‘am ba‘di ma anzalallahu ilayk. Fa in tawallaw fa‘lam annama yuridullahu an yusibahum biba‘di dhunubihim. Wa inna kathiram minan-nasi lafasiqun.

And judge between them by what Allah has sent down, and do not follow their desires. Beware of them, lest they tempt you away from some of what Allah has sent down to you. If they turn away, then know that Allah only intends to strike them for some of their sins. Indeed, many of the people are defiantly disobedient.

Afahukmal-jahiliyyati yabghun. Wa man ahsanu minallahi hukmal liqawmin yuqinun.

Is it the judgment of ignorance that they seek? Who is better than Allah in judgment for people who are certain?

Ya ayyuhal-ladhina amanu la tattakhidhul-yahuda wan-nasara awliya’. Ba‘duhum awliya’u ba‘d. Wa man yatawallahum minkum fa innahu minhum. Innallaha la yahdil-qawmaz-zalimin.

O believers, do not take the Jews and the Christians as protective allies. They are allies of one another. Whoever among you takes them as allies is surely one of them. Indeed, Allah does not guide the wrongdoing people.

Fatara alladhina fi qulubihim maradun yusari‘una fihim yaquluna nakhsha an tusibana da’irah. Fa ‘asallahu an ya’tiya bil-fathi aw amrim min ‘indihi fayusbihu ‘ala ma asarru fi anfusihim nadimin.

You see those in whose hearts is disease rushing toward them, saying, “We fear that a turn of fortune may strike us.” Perhaps Allah will bring victory or a command from Himself, and then they will become regretful over what they hid within themselves.

Wa yaqulul-ladhina amanu aha’ula’il-ladhina aqsamu billahi jahda aymanihim innahum lama‘akum. Habitat a‘maluhum fa asbahu khasirin.

The believers will say, “Are these the ones who swore by Allah with their strongest oaths that they were surely with you?” Their deeds became worthless, and they became losers.

Ya ayyuhal-ladhina amanu man yartadda minkum ‘an dinihi fasawfa ya’tillahu biqawmin yuhibbuhum wa yuhibbunah. Adhillatin ‘alal-mu’minina a‘izzatin ‘alal-kafirin, yujahiduna fi sabilillahi wa la yakhafuna lawmata la’im. Dhalika fadlullahi yu’tihi man yasha’. Wallahu wasi‘un ‘alim.

O believers, whoever among you turns back from his religion, Allah will bring a people whom He loves and who love Him, humble toward the believers, firm against the disbelievers, striving in the way of Allah and not fearing the blame of any blamer. That is Allah’s favour. He gives it to whom He wills. And Allah is All-Encompassing, All-Knowing.

Innama waliyyukumullahu wa rasuluhu walladhina amanu alladhina yuqimunas-salata wa yu’tunaz-zakata wa hum raki‘un.

Your true ally is only Allah, His Messenger, and the believers who establish prayer, give zakah, and bow in worship.

Wa man yatawallallaha wa rasulahu walladhina amanu fa inna hizballahi humul-ghalibun.

Whoever takes Allah, His Messenger, and the believers as allies, then surely the party of Allah will be victorious.

Ya ayyuhal-ladhina amanu la tattakhidhul-ladhinattakhadhu dinakum huzuwan wa la‘iban minal-ladhina utul-kitaba min qablikum wal-kuffara awliya’. Wattaqullaha in kuntum mu’minin.

O believers, do not take as allies those who take your religion in mockery and play, from those who were given the Scripture before you and the disbelievers. Have taqwa of Allah if you are believers.

Wa idha nadaytum ilas-salati ittakhadhuha huzuwan wa la‘iba. Dhalika bi annahum qawmul la ya‘qilun.

When you call to prayer, they take it in mockery and play. That is because they are a people who do not reason.

Qul ya ahlal-kitabi hal tanqimuna minna illa an amanna billahi wa ma unzila ilayna wa ma unzila min qablu wa anna aktharakum fasiqun.

Say, “O People of the Scripture, do you resent us only because we believe in Allah, in what was sent down to us, and in what was sent down before, and because most of you are defiantly disobedient?”

Qul hal unabbi’ukum bisharrim min dhalika mathubatan ‘indallah. Man la‘anahullahu wa ghadiba ‘alayhi wa ja‘ala minhumul-qiradata wal-khanazira wa ‘abadat-taghut. Ula’ika sharrum makanan wa adallu ‘an sawa’is-sabil.

Say, “Shall I inform you of something worse than that as a recompense with Allah? Those whom Allah cursed, became angry with, made some of them apes and pigs, and who worshipped false gods. Those are worse in position and farther astray from the straight way.”

Wa idha ja’ukum qalu amanna wa qad dakhalu bil-kufri wa hum qad kharaju bih. Wallahu a‘lamu bima kanu yaktumun.

When they come to you, they say, “We believe,” but they entered with disbelief and they left with it. Allah knows best what they used to hide.

Wa tara kathiram minhum yusari‘una fil-ithmi wal-‘udwani wa aklihimus-suht. Labi’sa ma kanu ya‘malun.

You see many of them rushing into sin, aggression, and consuming unlawful gain. Evil indeed is what they used to do.

Lawla yanhahumur-rabbaniyyuna wal-ahbaru ‘an qawlihimul-ithma wa aklihimus-suht. Labi’sa ma kanu yasna‘un.

Why do the devoted religious leaders and scholars not forbid them from sinful speech and consuming unlawful gain? Evil indeed is what they used to do.

Wa qalatil-yahudu yadullahi maghlulah. Ghullat aydihim wa lu‘inu bima qalu. Bal yadahu mabsutatani yunfiqu kayfa yasha’. Wa layazidanna kathiram minhum ma unzila ilayka mir-rabbika tughyana wa kufra. Wa alqayna baynahumul-‘adawata wal-baghda’a ila yawmil-qiyamah. Kullama awqadu naran lil-harbi atfa’ahallah. Wa yas‘awna fil-ardi fasada. Wallahu la yuhibbul-mufsidin.

The Jews said, “Allah’s hand is chained.” May their hands be chained, and they were cursed for what they said. Rather, both His hands are extended; He spends however He wills. What has been sent down to you from your Lord will surely increase many of them in rebellion and disbelief. We placed among them enmity and hatred until the Day of Resurrection. Whenever they kindle a fire for war, Allah extinguishes it. They strive throughout the land spreading corruption, and Allah does not love the corrupters.

Wa law anna ahlal-kitabi amanu wattaqaw lakaffarna ‘anhum sayyi’atihim wa la’adkhalnahum jannatin-na‘im.

If only the People of the Scripture had believed and had taqwa, We would surely have removed their sins from them and admitted them into Gardens of Bliss.

Wa law annahum aqamut-Tawrata wal-Injila wa ma unzila ilayhim mir-rabbihim la’akalu min fawqihim wa min tahti arjulihim. Minhum ummatum muqtasidah. Wa kathirum minhum sa’a ma ya‘malun.

If only they had upheld the Torah, the Gospel, and what was sent down to them from their Lord, they would have eaten from above them and from beneath their feet. Among them is a moderate community, but many of them do evil in what they do.

Ya ayyuhar-rasulu balligh ma unzila ilayka mir-rabbik. Wa in lam taf‘al fama ballaghta risalatahu. Wallahu ya‘simuka minan-nas. Innallaha la yahdil-qawmal-kafirin.

O Messenger, convey what has been sent down to you from your Lord. If you do not, then you have not conveyed His message. Allah will protect you from the people. Indeed, Allah does not guide the disbelieving people.

Qul ya ahlal-kitabi lastum ‘ala shay’in hatta tuqimut-Tawrata wal-Injila wa ma unzila ilaykum mir-rabbikum. Wa layazidanna kathiram minhum ma unzila ilayka mir-rabbika tughyana wa kufra. Fala ta’sa ‘alal-qawmal-kafirin.

Say, “O People of the Scripture, you are not upon anything until you uphold the Torah, the Gospel, and what has been sent down to you from your Lord.” What has been sent down to you from your Lord will surely increase many of them in rebellion and disbelief, so do not grieve over the disbelieving people.

Innal-ladhina amanu walladhina hadu was-sabi’una wan-nasara man amana billahi wal-yawmil-akhiri wa ‘amila salihan fala khawfun ‘alayhim wa la hum yahzanun.

Indeed, those who believed, those who were Jews, the Sabians, and the Christians, whoever believed in Allah and the Last Day and did righteous deeds, there will be no fear upon them, nor will they grieve.

Laqad akhadhna mithaqa bani Isra’ila wa arsalna ilayhim rusula. Kullama ja’ahum rasulum bima la tahwa anfusuhum fariqan kadhdhabu wa fariqan yaqtulun.

We certainly took the covenant of the Children of Israel and sent messengers to them. Whenever a messenger came to them with what their souls did not desire, a group they denied and a group they killed.

Wa hasibu alla takuna fitnatun fa‘amu wa sammu thumma taballahu ‘alayhim thumma ‘amu wa sammu kathirum minhum. Wallahu basirum bima ya‘malun.

They thought there would be no trial or consequence, so they became blind and deaf. Then Allah turned to them in forgiveness, yet many of them again became blind and deaf. And Allah is All-Seeing of what they do.

Laqad kafaral-ladhina qalu innallaha huwal-Masihu ibnu Maryam. Wa qalal-Masihu ya bani Isra’ila‘budullaha rabbi wa rabbakum. Innahu man yushrik billahi faqad harramallahu ‘alayhil-jannata wa ma’wahun-nar. Wa ma liz-zalimina min ansar.

Those who say, “Allah is the Messiah, son of Maryam,” have certainly disbelieved. The Messiah himself said, “O Children of Israel, worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord.” Whoever associates partners with Allah, Allah has forbidden Paradise for him, and his home is the Fire. The wrongdoers will have no helpers.

Laqad kafaral-ladhina qalu innallaha thalithu thalathah. Wa ma min ilahin illa ilahun wahid. Wa in lam yantahu ‘amma yaquluna layamassannal-ladhina kafaru minhum ‘adhabun alim.

Those who say, “Allah is one of three,” have certainly disbelieved. There is no god except One God. If they do not stop what they are saying, a painful punishment will surely touch those who disbelieve among them.

Afala yatubuna ilallahi wa yastaghfirunah. Wallahu ghafurur-rahim.

Will they not repent to Allah and seek His forgiveness? And Allah is Most Forgiving, Most Merciful.

Mal-Masihu ibnu Maryama illa rasulun qad khalat min qablihir-rusul. Wa ummuhu siddiqah. Kana ya’kulanit-ta‘am. Unzur kayfa nubayyinu lahumul-ayati thummanzur anna yu’fakun.

The Messiah, son of Maryam, was only a messenger. Messengers had passed away before him. His mother was a woman of truth. They both used to eat food. See how We make the signs clear to them, then see how they are turned away.

Qul ata‘buduna min dunillahi ma la yamliku lakum darran wa la naf‘a. Wallahu huwas-sami‘ul-‘alim.

Say, “Do you worship besides Allah that which has no power to harm you or benefit you? And Allah is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing.”

Qul ya ahlal-kitabi la taghlu fi dinikum ghayral-haqqi wa la tattabi‘u ahwa’a qawmin qad dallu min qablu wa adallu kathiran wa dallu ‘an sawa’is-sabil.

Say, “O People of the Scripture, do not go to extremes in your religion beyond the truth, and do not follow the desires of a people who went astray before, misled many, and strayed from the straight way.”

Lu‘inal-ladhina kafaru mim bani Isra’ila ‘ala lisani Dawuda wa ‘Isa ibni Maryam. Dhalika bima ‘asaw wa kanu ya‘tadun.

Those who disbelieved from the Children of Israel were cursed by the tongue of Dawud and Isa, son of Maryam. That was because they disobeyed and used to transgress.

Kanu la yatanahawna ‘am munkarin fa‘aluh. Labi’sa ma kanu yaf‘alun.

They used not to forbid one another from wrongdoing that they did. Evil indeed was what they used to do.

Tara kathiram minhum yatawallawnal-ladhina kafaru. Labi’sa ma qaddamat lahum anfusuhum an sakhitallahu ‘alayhim wa fil-‘adhabi hum khalidun.

You see many of them taking those who disbelieved as allies. Evil indeed is what their souls have sent ahead for them, that Allah became angry with them, and in the punishment they will remain forever.

Wa law kanu yu’minuna billahi wan-nabiyyi wa ma unzila ilayhi mattakhadhuhum awliya’a walakinna kathiram minhum fasiqun.

If they had truly believed in Allah, the Prophet, and what was sent down to him, they would not have taken them as allies. But many of them are defiantly disobedient.

Latajidanna ashaddan-nasi ‘adawatal lilladhina amanul-yahuda walladhina ashraku. Wa latajidanna aqrabahum mawaddatal lilladhina amanul-ladhina qalu inna nasara. Dhalika bi anna minhum qissisina wa ruhbanan wa annahum la yastakbirun.

You will surely find the strongest of people in hostility toward the believers to be the Jews and those who associate partners with Allah. And you will surely find the nearest of them in affection toward the believers to be those who say, “We are Christians.” That is because among them are priests and monks, and because they are not arrogant.

Wa idha sami‘u ma unzila ilar-rasuli tara a‘yunahum tafidu minad-dam‘i mimma ‘arafu minal-haqq. Yaquluna rabbana amanna faktubna ma‘ash-shahidin.

When they hear what was sent down to the Messenger, you see their eyes overflowing with tears because of the truth they recognized. They say, “Our Lord, we believe, so write us among the witnesses.”
