SURAH
AL-AN'AM
Allah in the name of The Most Affectionate, the Merciful.
1. All Praise to Allah, Who created the heavens and the
earth and brought into being the darkness and the light, yet
the infidels ascribe equals to their Lord.
2. It is He Who created you from clay, then He decreed a
term, and there is a determined promise with Him, thereafter
you doubt.
3. And He is the very Allah of heavens and earth He knows
all your secrets and what you reveal and knows your doings.
4. And there comes to them no sign of the signs of their,
Lord, but they turn away, their faces from it.
5. Then undoubtedly, they belied the truth when it came
to then. So now, they are to be informed of that they were mocking
at.
6. Have they not observed how many a generation We have
destroyed before them? We gave them such establishment in the
earth, which We gave you not, and We sent them rain in torrents
and caused rivers flow beneath them, then We destroyed them
on account of their sins, and after them raised up another generation.
7. And if We had sent down on you something written on paper
so that they would have touched it with their hands, even then
the infidels would have said, 'this is nothing but manifest
magic'.
8. And they said, 'Why not any angel has been sent on him?
And if We would have sent an angel the affair would have been
finished, and they would not have been given time.
9. And if We had made the prophet an angel, even then We
would have made him a man, and they would have the same doubt
in him as they have now.
10. And assuredly, O beloved prophet! Messengers before
you were mocked at; then those who were mocking at them their
mockery surrounded them selves.
11. Say you, Go about in the land, then see how has been
the end of beliers'.
12. Say you, 'To whom belongs whatever is in the heavens
and the earth? Say you 'To Allah, 'He has written mercy upon
His generosity. Undoubtedly, He will surely gather you on the
Day of judgement There is no doubt in it. Those who have put
their souls in loss would not believe.
13. And to Him belongs whatever dwells in the night and
day. And He is the Hearer the Knower.
14. Say you, 'Shall I take for protector any other than
Allah Who has created heavens and earth, and He feeds and is
not fed? Say you; I have been commanded to submit first and
never to be of polytheists.
15. Say you; 'If I disobey my Lord then, I fear the torment
of a Mighty Day'.
16. On that day, from whomsoever the torment is averted
Allah indeed has had mercy on him And this is the manifest triumph.
17. And if Allah causes any evil to you, then there is none
to remove it but He. And if He brings you good, then He can
do everything.
18. And He is all Dominant over His bondmen. And He is the
very Wise, the Aware.
19. Say you, 'Whose evidence is the greatest'? Say you,
'Allah is witness between you and me this Quran has been revealed
to me so that with it may warn you and whomsoever it reaches.'
Then do you give this evidence that besides Allah there are
other gods? Say you 'I do not give this evidence. 'Say you,
'He is the only one to be worshiped and I am quit of all those,
you associate with Him'.
20. Those whom We gave the Book recognise this prophet as
they recognise their sons. Those who have put their souls in
loss would not believe.
21. And who is more unjust than he who forges a lie against
Allah or belies His signs Undoubtedly, the unjust will never
get prosperity.
22. And the day when, We shall raise them all together then
will say to the polytheists, 'where are those your associates
whom you used to assert'.
23. Then there remained not any fabrication for them but
to say, 'by Allah, Our Lord, We were not polytheists.
24. See! How they lied against themselves and were lost
from them the things, which they had been concocting.
25. And among them are some who give ear (listen) to you
and, We have put veils over their hearts so that they understand
it not and in their ears is heaviness. And if they may see all
signs even then they will not believe in them. In as much as
when they come to you disputing, then infidels say, 'this is
not but the stories of the ancients.'
26. And they forbid from it and keep a far from it and they
ruin not but their own souls and they perceive not.
27. And if you could see when they will be made to stand
before the fire then they will say, 'would that We might be
resumed and belie not, the sighs of their Lord and might become
Muslims.
28. But it has become manifest to them what they used to
conceal before. And if they were sent back, they would do the
same from which they were forbidden and undoubtedly, they are
surely liars.
29. And they say, This is the only our life of the world
and we are not to be raised'.
30. And if you could see when they shall be made to stand
before their Lord. He will say, is not this truth? They will
say, 'why not by our, Lord' He will say, 'then now taste the
torment, the reward of your infidelity.'
31. Undoubtedly, they remained losers who denied the meeting
with their Lord, so much so, that when the Hour came to them
suddenly, they said, 'Oh alas for us, that we committed mistake
in accepting it and that we bear our burden on our backs O what
an evil burden they are bearing?
32. And worldly life is nothing but a play and amusement.
And undoubtedly, the last abode is better for those who fear.
Do you not then?
33. We know that what they say, grieves you, they belie
you not, but the evil doers deny the signs of Allah.
34. And the Messengers were belied before you, but they
endured patiently when they were belied and were persecuted,
until Our help came to them. And there is none to change the
words of Allah; and the news of the Messengers has already come
to you.
35. And if their turning away of faces has grieved you,
then if you can do, seek any tunnel in the ground or a ladder
unto heaven, and bring a sign for them. And if Allah has willed,
then He would have gathered them on the guidance, so O listener!
Be never you an innocent.
36. Those very accept who listen, and Allah will raise those
of dead hearts, then towards Him they will be driven.
37. And they say, 'why has not a sign been sent down to
them from their Lord? Say you, 'Allah has power to send down
a sign, but most of them are fully ignorant.
38. And there is no one crawling on earth nor any bird that
flies on its wings but are the communities like you. We have
left out nothing in the Book. Then to their Lord they shall
be raised.
39. And those who belied Our signs are deaf and dumb in
utter darkness. Allah sends astray whom He will, and places
on the straight path whom He will.
40. Say you, 'tell you then if the torment of Allah comes
to you or the Hour is established, will you call upon any other
than Allah, if you are truthful?
41. But you will call Him alone, so if He please He would
remove that for which you call for Him, and you would forget
the associates.
42. And undoubtedly, We sent; Messengers towards communities
before you then seized them with adversity and distress so that
they might beseech.
43. Why did it not happen that when Our torment came upon
them, they would have beseeched? But their hearts were hardened
and the devil (Satan) made fair seeming to them their deeds
in their eyes.
44. Then when they forget that with which they were admonished
We opened unto them the gates of all things until when they
became delighted at what they were given, then We seized them
suddenly, now they were left in disappear.
45. Then the unjust were uprooted completely; and a praise
belongs to Allah, the Lord of all the worlds.
46. Say you, 'look you, if Allah should take away your ears
and eyes and seal up your hearts, then who is the God other
than Allah Who could bring these things back to you? See how
in different manners We explain the signs but they turn away
their faces.
47. Say you, look you, if the torment of Allah comes upon
you suddenly or openly then who will be destroyed save the unjust
people.
48. We do not send the Messengers but to give glad tidings
and to warn, then those who believed and amended themselves
then to them there is neither fear nor any grief.
49. And those who belied Our signs, torment shall reach
to them because of their disobedience.
50. Say you, 'I do not say to you, I possess the treasures,
of Allah, 'and nor I Say,' I know the unseen myself, and nor
do I say to you, 'I am an angel. I follow only that which is
revealed to me.' Say you, shall the blind and the seeing become
equal? Do you then not ponder?
51. And with this Quran warn those who fear that they shall
be raised towards their Lord in a manner that there shall be
neither supporter nor any intercessor for them beside Allah,
in the hope that they may be come God-fearing.
52. And drive not away those who call upon their Lord morning
and evening seeking His pleasure. Nothing on you from their
account, and nothing on them from your account, then if you
drive them away, this thing is far from justice.
53. And thus We made one of them a trial for the other on
that the wealthy infidel may say seeing the needy Muslims, 'Are
these people whom Allah has favoured among us? Does not Allah
know well the grateful?
54. And when those who believe in Our signs come to you
then say to them, 'Peace be upon you,' your Lord has prescribed
mercy on Himself, that whoso of you does some evil ignorantly
and repents thereafter and amends, then undoubtedly, Allah is
Forgiving, Merciful.
55. And in this way We explain fully Our signs, and in order
that the way of the guilty may become evident.
56. Say you, 'I have been for bidden to worship those whom
you worship besides Allah. 'Say you, 'I follow not your vain
desires, if it be so then I would go astray and would not remain,
on the path'.
57. Say you, 'I am on a shinning proof from my Lord and
you belie it; I have not that with me for which you are hastening.'
There is no order but of Allah. He explains the truth and He
is the Best of judges.
58. Say you 'If I had that thing for which you are hastening,
then the affair would have been already ended between me and
you. And Allah knows well the oppressors.
59. And with Him is the key of unseen, He only knows them
And He knows whatever is in the land and in the sea. And the
leaf that falls He knows it. And there is not any grain in the
darkness of the earth, and nor anything wet and nor dry which
is not written in a luminous Book.
60. And He is the very Who takes hold of your souls by night
and knows whatever you earn by day, then He raises you in the
day so that the appointed term may be completed, then you have
to return towards Him, then He will tell you what you used to
do.
61. And He is the Dominant over His bondmen and He,' sends
guardians over you, until when death comes to any of you, Our
angels take his soul and they do not fail.
62. Then they are turned back towards their true Lord Allah.
(Do you hear?) His is the order and He is the Quickest in taking
account.
63. Say you, 'Who is that Who delivers you from the calamities
of the forest and sea Whom you call upon in humility and secretly
that if He saves us from this, then we shall certainly be grateful.
64. Say you, Allah delivers you from this and from every
distress, yet you associate partners with Him.
65. Say you, 'He is powerful to send torment on you from
above you or from beneath your feet or He may make you to encounter
by making different groups and to make you, taste the severity
of one another,' see, How We explain the signs in various ways
haply they may understand.
66. And your people belied it, and it is the truth. Say
you; 'I am not an advocate over you'.
67. For every thing, there is a time fixed and soon you
will come to know.
68. And O listener! When you see those who plunge in Our
signs then turn away your face from them until they plunge in
some other discourse, and whatever they say the devil (Satan)
may make you forget then sit not you after recollection with
the unjust people.
69. And there is nothing on the righteous from their account
yes, but to admonish them, haply they may abstain.
70. And leave those alone who have made their religion a
mockery and play thing and the worldly life has deceived them
and admonishes them with Quran, so that a soul may not be caught
on account of its doings. It shall have neither helper nor intercessor
beside Allah. And if it gives every compensation for itself,
it shall not be accepted from it. These are they who have been
caught on their doings. For them is a drink of boiling water
and painful torment, the recompense of their infidelity.
71. Say you, 'shall we worship beside Allah that which neither
does us any good nor does any harm, and shall we be turned back
on our heels, after that Allah has shown us the way, like one
whom the devil has made to forget his way in the earth, he is
bewildered, (while) his companions are calling him towards the
way that come to us? Say you, 'The guidance of Allah is the
only guidance, and we are commanded to submit to Him only who
is the Lord of all worlds.
72. And this that establishes prayer and fears Him and it
is He towards Whom you are to rise.
73. And it is He who has made the heavens and earth rightly.
And the Day when the destruction will occur, He will say to
everything, 'be then it will become atonce. His word is the
truth. And His is the kingdom on the day when the trumpet will
be blown He is the Knower of every secret and open and He is
the Wise, the Aware.
74. And remember when Abraham said to his father, Azar,
'Do you take the idols for gods'? Undoubtedly, I find you and
your people in manifest error.
75. And thus We show to Abraham all the Kingdoms of heavens
and earth and in Order that he might become of the convinced
at sight.
76. When the darkness of night came on him, he saw a star,
said he, 'you take this as my Lord! Then when it set, said he,
'I do not like the setting ones'.
77. Then when he saw the moon shining, said he, 'you tell
this my Lord, then when it set, said he, 'if my Lord would not
have guided me I would also have been of tee same who have gone
astray.'
78. Then when he saw the sun shining, said he, au say this
my Lord! This is biggest of all then when it set, said he 'O
people, I am quit of all those things which you associate with
God.
79. I diverted my face towards Him who have made the heavens
and earth, being of Him only and I am not of the polytheists.
80. And his people began to dispute with him, said he, 'do
you dispute with me in respect of Allah, then He has already
told me the way, and I do not fear those that you tell as His
associates, but yes if my Lord, wishes anything. My Lord comprehends
every thing in His knowledge. Then, do you not accept the admonition?
81. And how should I fear those you associate and while
you do not fear that you associated with Allah that for which
He has not sent down to you any certificate. Then which of the
two groups is more entitled for security, if you know?
82. Those who have believed and mixed not any injustice
with their faith, these are the people for whom there is security
and they are the very who are guided.
83. And this is Our argument that We gave to Ibraham against
his people; We raise in degrees Whom we please. Undoubtedly,
your Lord is Wise, Knowing.
84. And We gave him Ishaque and Yaqub We showed the path
to all of them and showed the path to Nuh before them, and of
his progeny, to Daud and Suleman and Ayub and Yusuf and Musa
and Haroon, and thus We recompense the righteous.
85. And to Zakaria (Zacharia) and Yahya (John) and Isa (Jesus)
and Ilyas (Elias). These are all entitled to be Our near ones
(righteous)
86. And to Ismail and Yasa (Elisha) and Yunus (Jonah) and
Lot, And to each one We preferred above all in his time.
87. And also to some of their fathers and their progeny
and some of their brothers, and We chose them and showed them
the straight path.
88. This is the guidance of Allah. He gives whom He will
of His bondmen, and if they would have committed polytheism,
then surely, all that they had already done would have been
destroyed.
89. Those are they to whom We gave the Book and order and
prophet-hood, then if these people reject it. Then We have appointed
for it such a people who are not the rejecters.
90. These are they whom Allah has guided, then follow you
their path. Say you; I ask you no wage for Quran that is not
but an admonition to the entire world.
91. And the Jews did not know the estimation of Allah as
was necessary for Him when they said, 'Allah has not sent down
anything on any man.' Say you, 'who has sent down that Book
which was brought by Moses, a light and a guidance for the people
of which you have made separate papers to show and much of it
you conceal; and you are taught that which you knew not neither
you nor your fathers 'Say, 'Allah.'' Then leave them playing
in their absurdity.
92. And this is a blessed Book ' that We have sent down
confirming those Books which were before it and in order that
you may warn the chief of all cities (Mekkah) and to all those
around it in the entire world. And those who believe in the
Hereafter believe in this Book and guard their prayer.
93. And who is more unjust than one who fabricates a lie
' against Allah or Says, 'I have received a revelation and nothing
has been revealed to him and who says, 'just now I send down
the like of what Allah has sent down, and if you could see the
unjust when they are in the agonies of death and the angels
have stretched their hands; (saying) 'yield up your souls',
this day you will be awarded the punishment of disgrace for
you used to forge lie against Allah and because you were big
with pride against His signs.
94. And undoubtedly, you have come to US alone as We created
you for the first time, and you have left behind your backs
whatever wealth and had given you; and We see not with you your
intercessors of whom you asserted as your partners in your affairs,
undoubtedly, the ties between you are cut off and gone is that
from you who used to assert.
95. Undoubtedly! Allah is the Cleaver of seed-grain and
date stone. He brings forth the living from the dead and is
the Bringer forth of the dead from the living. This is Allah!
Where are you going back?
96. He brings forth the dawn after cleaving the darkness
and He has made the night for rest and the sun and moon as reckoning.
This is the measurement of the Mighty, the Knowing.
97. And it is He who has made the stars for you that you
may get the way in the darkness of the Land and the sea. We
have explained the signs in detail for people who know.
98. And it is He who has produced you from a single soul,
then you have to stay some where and to remain as repository
at some other place. Undoubtedly! We have explained the signs
in detail for a people of understanding.
99. And it is He who has sent down water from the heaven,
then We brought forth every things of growth and out of it We
brought forth the green (foliage) from which We bring forth-clustered
grains and out of the sheaths of palms the bunches close to
one another and gardens of grapes and olives and pomegranates,
similar in some respect and dissimilar in some other respects.
Look at its fruit when it bears fruit and its ripening. Undoubtedly
there are signs in it for the persons believing.
100. And they have made jinns as associates of Allah whereas
He created them and they devised for him sons and Daughters
without any knowledge. Holy is He and exalted far above from
their affairs.
101. The Originator of the heavens and earth, from where
He have a son whereas there is no woman for Him and he has created
everything and He knows all things.
102. This is Allah, your Lord none is to be worshipped except
He, the Maker of every thing, then worships Him, He is Guardian
over everything.
103. Eyes comprehend Him not and all eyes are under His
comprehension and it is He Who is the Innermost, All Aware.
104. There have come to you the eye Opener arguments from
your Lord, then whosoever saw it, then it is for his own good
and whosoever became blind, then it is for his own bad and I
am not a guardian over you.
105. And thus We variously explain the signs and because
the infidels may say, 'you have studied' and that We may make
it clear over the people who know.
106. Follow you what has been revealed to you, none is to
be worshipped except He and turn your face from the polytheists.
107. And had Allah willed they would not have committed
polytheism and We made not you watcher over them, nor are you
an advocate over them.
108. And abuse not those whom they worship beside Allah
because they will commit rudeness in respect of Allah through
their excessiveness and ignorance. Thus We have mace fair the
deeds of every nation in their eyes, then they have to return
back towards their Lord and He will tell them what they used
to do.
109. And they swear by Allah in their oath with utmost earnest
that if there come to them any sign then they would surely believe
therein. Say you, 'The signs are with Allah and what you know
that when they would come then they will not believe therein.
110. And We turn about their hearts and their eyes, as they
believed not therein at the first time and We leave them to
wander about in their contumacy.
111. And if We had sent down angels towards them and the
dead had spoken to them and We had brought together all things
before them, even then they would not believe but if Allah would
have willed, but most of them are totally ignorant.
112. And in like manner We have made for every prophet an
enemy, devils from among men and jinn, that in them one inspires
the other secretly with fabricated discourse in order to deceive
and had your Lord wished, they would not have done so then leave
them on their fabrications.
113. And because that the hearts of those who do not believe
in the Hereafter may incline towards it, and that they may like
it, and may earn sin what they are to earn.
114. Then, shall I seek the judgement of some one other
than Allah, when it is He who has sent down towards you this
detailed Book? And those whom We have given the Book know that
it is sent down by your Lord in truth; so O' Listener' be never
then of the doubters.
115. And Complete is the word of your Lord in veracity and
justice. There is no one to change His words: and He is the
Hearer, the Knower.
116. And O listener! There are majority of those on earth
that if you follow their saying, then they would mislead you
from the way of Allah. They are only behind their imaginations
and they are in mere conjecture.
117. Your Lord knows well who has gone astray from His way,
and He knows well the guided ones.
118. Then eat of that on which the name of Allah has been
pronounced, if you believe in His signs.
119. And what happened to you that you should not eat out
of that on which the name of Allah has been pronounced. He has
explained to you in detail what is forbidden to you, but when
you be compelled to it? And undoubtedly, many mislead by their
own desires without knowing. Undoubtedly, your Lord knows well
the transgressors.
120. And leave the apparent and secret sins. Those who earn
sin, soon they will get punishment of their earning.
121. And eat not that over which the name of Allah has not
been pronounced for undoubtedly that is dis-obedience And Surely
the devils inspire their friends that they may quarrel with
you, and if you obey them, then at that time you are polytheist.
122. And will he who was dead, then We gave him life, and
made for him a light by which he walks among mankind, become
like that who is in darkness from which he is not to come out?
Thus, in the eyes of infidels their deeds have been made fair
looking.
123. And thus have We made in each town the leaders of the
guilty, so that they may plot therein. And they plot not but
against their own souls, and they perceive not.
124. And when any sign comes to them, then they say, 'We
shall never believe unless we receive the like of what has been
given to the Messengers of Allah. Allah knows well where to
place His Messenger-ship. Soon the guilty ones will receive
humiliation before Allah and severe torment for their plotting.
125. And whomsoever Allah wishes to show the way, He opens
his breast for Islam, and whomsoever wishes to lose his way,
He makes his breast narrow, straitened well as if he is climbing
up into the sky forced by some one else And thus Allah inflicts
Punishment on those who believe not.
126. And this is the straight path of your Lord. We have
explained the signs in detail for the people accepting admonition.
127. For them is the home of safety with their Lord, and
He is their Protector, this is the fruit of their doings.
128. And the day He will raise all of them and will say,
'O company of Jinn! You have gathered many men," and their
allies among men will say. 'O our Lord! We made use of one another
and we have reached the term you had determined for us.' He
will say, 'Fire is your abode, abide therein for ever but as
Allah will.' O beloved prophet Undoubtedly your Lord is Wise,
Knowing.
129. And thus We set over one against the other among the
unjust for what they have done.
130. 'O company of Jinn and men! Did not Messengers come
to you from amongst yourselves reciting My signs to you, and
warning you of seeing this day of yours? They will say, We bear
witness against our souls,' and the worldly life deceived them
and will themselves bear witness against their souls that they
were infidels.
131. This is so because your Lord destroys not the town
unjustly while their people are unaware.
132. And for every one there are degrees in accordance with
their deeds. And your Lord is not unaware of their actions.
133. And O beloved prophet' Your Lord is Self sufficient,
Merciful O mankind! If He please, He may take you away, and
bring some other whom He will in your place, just as He created
you from the off springs of other people.
134. Undoubtedly, what is promised to you is sure to come
and you cannot get it tired.
135. Say you. 'O my people! Go on acting in your places
do my work, 'then now you wish to know for whom remains the
ultimate Abode. Undoubtedly, the unjust get not the welfare.
136. And whatever filth and cattle Allah has produced they
made Him a sharer in them, then said, 'this is for Allah according
to their fancies and this is for our associates.' Then that
which is of their associates does not reach God and that which
is for God reaches their associates. What an evil judgement
they assign?
137. And thus their associates have made fair-seeming the
killing of offsprings in the eyes of many polytheists, so that
they may ruin them and may confuse them in their religion. And
had Allah willed, they would not have done so, then you leave
them, they are with their fabrications.
138. And they say, 'this cattle and tilth are taboo, only
those can eat them whom We please with their false notions,
and there are some cattle over which riding is forbidden, and
some cattle over which they do not pronounce the name of Allah
at the time of slaughtering, this all is to assert lie against
Allah. Soon He shall recompense them for their fabrications.
139. And they say, 'what is: within the bellies of those
cattle solely belong to our males and is forbidden to our women,
and if it be born dead, then they all are partners therein.
Soon Allah will recompense them for their such actions. Undoubtedly
He is Wise, knowing.
140. Undoubtedly, those who kill their offsprings by their
foolish ignorance are ruined and make unlawful what Allah has
provided for them, forging a lie against Allah. Undoubtedly,
they have strayed and have not got the way.
141. And it is He who has produced gardens, trellised and
untrellised, and date palms and filth in which are various kinds
of food and olives and pomegranates similar in some respects
and dis-similar in some other respects. Eat of their fruits
when bear fruits and pay due thereof on the day of harvesting,
and spend not wastefully. Undoubtedly, He does not like those
who spend wastefully
142. And of the cattle some are for carrying burden and
some lying on earth (too small) Eat of what Allah has provided
for you and do not follow the footsteps of the devil (Satan).
Undoubtedly, he is your open enemy.
143. Eight males and females, one pair of sheep and one
pair of goat; say you, 'has He made both males unlawful or both
females or that which the wombs of two females contain? Inform
by any knowledge, if you are truthful.'
144. And a pair of camel and a pair of cow; say you, 'has
He made both males unlawful or both females or that which the
wombs of both females contain?" Were you present when Allah
gave you this order, then who is more unjust than one who forges
lie against Allah, that he may misguide the people with his
ignorance. Undoubtedly, Allah does not show the path to unjust.
145. Say you, 'I find not in what has been revealed to me
any meal forbidden to any eater, but that it be a dead body,
or flowing blood of veins or the flesh of a vile animal (swine)
for that is foul or an animal of disobedience in slaughtering
of which the name other than God has been pronounced, then whoso
is driven by necessity neither willing himself nor exceeding
beyond the necessity, then undoubtedly. Allah is Forgiving,
Merciful.
146. And to the Jews We forbade every animal having hoofs
and the fat of cow and goat We forbade them but what their backs
or intestines carry or what is attached to their bones. We recompensed
them for their contumacy, and undoubtedly, We are surely the
Truthful.
147. Again if they belie you say you, 'your Lord is of extensive
mercy and His torment is not turned aside from the guilty people.'
148. Now the polytheists say, 'if Allah had willed, we would
not have committed polytheism, neither our fore-fathers, nor
had We forbidden anything.' In the same manner belied those
who were before them until they tasted Our torment. Say you,
'Have you any knowledge that you bring it forth to us? You are
only behind your conjecture and without nothing you estimate.
149. Say you, 'then the argument of Allah is conclusive;
so if He had wished, then. He would have guided you all.'
150. Say you, 'Bring your those witnesses who testify that
Allah has forbidden this, 'then if they testify, then you O
listener! Bear not witness with them, and follow not the desires
of those who belie Our signs, and who believe not in the Hereafter,
and they ascribe equals to their Lord.
151. Say you, 'Come I will rehearse to you what your Lord
has forbidden to you, 'that you associate not anyone with Him,
and that you do good to parents, and that you kill not your
children because of poverty. We shall provide for you and for
them, and that you approach not shameful deeds whichever them
is open and whichever is hidden; and slay not unjustly the life
which Allah has made sacred. This has He ordered you that you
may understand.
152. And do not approach the property of the orphans but
in the best way, until he reaches the maturity and fill up the
measure and weight with justice. We burden no soul but to its
capacity, and when you speak, then say just, event though it
be a matter of your relative, and fulfil the covenant of Allah.
This He has en-joined you strictly that haply you may accept
admonition.
153. And that, this is My' straight path, then follow it
and follow not other paths for they will deviate you from His
path. This He has ordered you that haply you may be self-restrained.
154. Again We gave the Book to Moses for doing full favour
upon him who is righteous, and the details of everything, and
a guidance and mercy that haply they may believe in the meeting
of their Lord.
155. And this blessed Book We have sent down, follow it
then and be self-restrained, so that you may receive mercy.
156. Lest you should say, The book was sent down to the
two peoples before us, and we were unaware of their reading
and teaching.
157. Or lest you should say, If the Book had been sent own
to us, then we would have be better guided than they.' So there
has come to you a luminous argument from your Lord, and guidance,
and a mercy. Who is then more unjust than he who belies the
signs of Allah and turns his face from them? Soon We shall punish
those with great torment who turns away their faces from Our
signs, the recompense of turning away their faces.
158. What they are waiting for, but for this that the angels
should come to them, or that the torment of your Lord should
come, or that a sign off your Lord will come? The day when that
one sign of your Lord will come. Believing will not profit any
soul that did not believe before or had not earned any good
in its belief. Then say you. 'Wait, we also wait.'
159. Those who have created separate paths in their religion
and have become many serfs O beloved prophet! You have no concern
at all with them. He will inform to them what they used to do.
160. Whoso brings one good, then for him there are ten like
thereof, and whose brings an evil, shall not be recompensed
but to its equal and they shall not he wronged.
161. Say you, 'Undoubtedly, my Lord has shown me the straight
path, a right religion, the creed of Ibrahim who was aloof from
every falsehood and was not a polytheist.'
162. Say you, 'Undoubtedly, my prayer, and my sacrifices,
and my living and my dying are all for Allah Who is the Lord
of all the worlds.'
163. No one is associated to Him, so I have been commanded
and I am the first muslim.
164. Say you, 'shall I seek a Lord other than Allah, while
He is the Lord of everything. And whatever one earns it is on
his, own account. And no bearer of burden will bear the burden
of another. Then you have to return towards your Lord, He will
inform you of that in, which you used to differ.
165. And He it is Who has made you vicegerent in the earth
and has raised one over the other in degrees among you that
He may try you in what He has given you. Undoubtedly, your Lord
is not late in tormenting, and undoubtedly, He is necessarily
Forgiving, Merciful.
