1. |
Whatever is in the heavens and on earth, let it declare the Praises and Glory of Allah:
for He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise. |
2. |
O ye who believe! why say ye that which ye do not? |
3. |
Grievously odious is it in the sight of Allah that ye say that which ye do not. |
4. |
Truly Allah loves those who fight in His Cause in battle array, as if they were a solid cemented structure. |
5. |
And remember, Moses said to his people:
"O my people! why do ye vex and insult me, though ye know that I am the messenger of Allah (sent) to you?"
Then when they went wrong, Allah let their hearts go wrong:
for Allah guides not those who are rebellious transgressors. |
6. |
And remember, Jesus, the son of Mary, said:
"O Children of Israel! I am the messenger of Allah (sent) to you confirming the Law (which came) before me,
and giving glad Tidings of a Messenger to come after me, whose name shall be Ahmad."
But when he came to them with Clear Signs, they said, "This is evident sorcery!" |
7. |
Who doth greater wrong than one who invents falsehood against Allah, even as he is being invited to Islam?
And Allah guides not those who do wrong. |
8. |
Their intention is to extinguish Allah's Light (by blowing) with their mouths:
but Allah will complete (the revelation of) His Light, even though the Unbelievers may detest (it). |
9. |
It is He Who has sent His Messenger with Guidance and the Religion of Truth, that he may proclaim it over all religion,
even though the Pagans may detest (it). |
10. |
O ye who believe! shall I lead you to a bargain that will save you from a grievous Penalty? -- |
11. |
- That ye believe in Allah and His Messenger,
- and that ye strive (your utmost) in the Cause of Allah, with your property and your persons:
that will be best for you, if ye but knew! |
12. |
He will forgive you your sins, and admit you to Gardens beneath which rivers flow,
and to beautiful mansions in Gardens of Eternity:
that is indeed the supreme Achievement. |
13. |
And another (favor will He bestow), which ye do love --help from Allah and a speedy victory:
so give the Glad Tidings to the Believers. |
14. |
O ye who believe! be ye helpers of Allah:
as said Jesus, the son of Mary, to the Disciples, "Who will be my helpers to (the work of) Allah?"
Said the Disciples, "We are Allah's helpers!"
Then a portion of the Children of Israel believed, and a portion disbelieved:
but We gave power to those who believed against their enemies, and they became the ones that prevailed. ********* |
