Women

By the Name

God

the Fount-of-All-Mercy
the Ever-Merciful

humankind

be Mindful of God
your Liege

Hu created you
from a single soul

and from it
created its mate

and from them both
spread far and wide
countless men and women

and be
Mindful of God

in whose Name
you make demands
of each other

and of the rights
of families

surely God is
watching over you

give the orphans
what is theirs

and do not exchange
bad things for good

and do not
take their property
and mix it in with yours

surely that is
a great crime

if you fear
that you will not
act justly
towards the orphans

marry those women
that are good for you

two, three or four

but if you are afraid
that you will not be able
to treat them all the same

then only one

or those you own as slaves

that makes it more likely
that you will not be
unfair

and give the women
their marriage dowry
as a gift

then if they are happy
to offer you any of it
you may use it
with pleasure
and good will

but do not give
the simple minded
their property
that God has given you
to manage

provide for them
and clothe them
out of it

and speak to them
kindly

keep a close check
on orphans
until they reach
the age for marrying

then if you see
that they have
good judgement
give them their wealth

do not waste it
and use it up quickly
before they are grown

if anyone is rich
let them
leave it alone
completely

if they are poor
let them use it
within reason

and when you give them
their property
call witnesses
on their behalf

and God
is enough
to count up
what you do

to men
a share of what
parents and family
leave

and to women
a share of what
parents and family
leave

a fixed share
whether it is
a little
or a lot

and when
other relatives

and orphans
and the poor

are there for
the sharing out

provide for them from it

and speak to them
with words of honour

and let them show
the same concern

that they would feel
for small children
they might leave behind

and let them be
Mindful of God
and speak out for justice

those who use up
the property of orphans
unjustly

swallow fire
into their bellies

and will surely
roast in a blaze

God urges this
with regard to your children

to the male
the same as
the share of
two females

and if there are
more than two daughters
then for them two thirds
of what is left
but if she be the only one
then to her a half

and to parents
to each of the two
one sixth of what is left
if there are children

but if there are
no children
and the parents are heirs
a third to the mother

or if there are brothers
to the mother a sixth
after taking care of
any commitments or debts

you do not know
which of your
parents or children
will benefit you more
so God sets the portions

surely God is
All-Knowing
All-Wise

and for you
a half of
what your wives leave
if they have no children

but if they have children
then for you
a quarter
after taking care of
any commitments or debts

and for them
a quarter
of what you leave
if you have no children

but if you have children
then for them
an eighth
after taking care of
any commitments or debts

if a man or woman
have no direct heir
but have a brother
or a sister
a sixth
for each of the two

but if there are
more of them
than that
they share a third equally
after taking care of
any commitments or debts
with no harm
to be done to anyone

this is urged by God

God is
All-Knowing
Gentle

those are the limits of God

whoever obeys God
and Hu's Messenger
Hu will allow them
into gardens
beneath which rivers flow

to live there forever

that is
the mighty triumph

but whoever disobeys God
and Hu's Messenger
and goes beyond
Hu's limits

Hu will let them into a Fire
to live there forever

and for them is waiting
a shameful punishment

if any of
your women
are unfaithful
four of you
must be witnesses
against them

and if they witness it
then keep them
in their houses
until death takes them

or God finds for them
another way

and when two of you
are rude in public
punish both

but if they are sorry
and change things
for the better
leave them alone

God accepts sorrow
and is
Ever-Merciful

God only
turns in forgiveness
to those who do wrong
without knowing

then apologise

God will return to those

God is
All-Knowing
All-Wise

but God will not
turn in forgiveness
to those who do wrong
until they are
visited by death
and then say

"Now I am sorry"

nor to those
who die ungrateful

for them
We have prepared
a painful punishment

you who believe

it is not permitted
for you to inherit women
against their will

and do not
treat your wives badly

so you may go off
with part of
what you have given them

unless they are guilty
of something
disgraceful

live together
in a way that is
caring and kind

if you do not like them
perhaps you do not like
something in which
God has placed
much good

and if you want
to exchange one wife
for another

and you gave the first
as marriage dowry
a great amount of gold

take back none of it

would you take it by
making false accusations
to harm her
clearly doing wrong?

how would you take it
when you have been
so close with each other

and they have had
a solemn promise
from you

and do not marry women
that your fathers married

unless it has already
taken place

surely that is
a shameful thing

a hateful and horrid
path to take

forbidden to you are

your mothers and daughters

your sisters

sisters of
your father and mother

your brother's daughters

your sister's daughters

your foster mothers
who have nursed you

foster sisters
who have nursed with
your foster mother

your wives mothers

your step daughters
in your care
born of wives
you have lain with

though if you have not yet
lain with them
there is no blame on you

and the wives of your sons
that you have fathered

and that you should have
two sisters together

unless it has already
taken place

God is
Most-Forgiving
Ever-Merciful

and married women
apart from your slaves

this is written by God

apart from all that
it is legal for you
to use your wealth
to look for
marriage partners

not casual pleasures

and when you marry them
give them
their marriage dowry

there is nothing wrong
in any other agreements
you might make
after the dowry
has been given

God is
All-Knowing
All-Wise

and those of you
that do not have enough
to marry
free believing women
let them marry
believing slaves

God knows best
what you believe
in that
you are like each other

so marry them
with their owner's permission
and give them
their dowry
with honour
as married women
not casual lovers

but when they are married
if they are unfaithful
they should get
half the punishment
of free women

that is for those
who are afraid
they might commit a crime

but it is better for you
to be patient

God is
Most-Forgiving
Ever-Merciful

God wants
to make things
clear to you

and to guide you
in the ways of those
who came before you

and to turn to you
in forgiveness

God is
All-Knowing
All-Wise

and God wants
to turn to you

but those who
just follow their appetites
want to make you
turn away completely

God wants
to make things
lighter for you

for humans
were created
weak

you who believe

do not use up
each other's goods
by cheating

only through trading
agreeing together

and do not kill each other

surely God is
Ever-Merciful
to you

whoever does that
through hatred
and injustice
We will surely
roast them
at a Fire

that is an easy thing
for God

but if you avoid
the most serious things
that are forbidden to you

We will wipe away
other bad things
that you have done

and let you in
through the gate of
honour

do not be jealous
of what God has given
to some of you
more than others

to the men
a share from
what they have earned

and to the women
a share from
what they have earned

and ask God
for Hu's bounty
God knows everything

We have appointed heirs
for everything
that parents
and relatives
leave

and those with whom
you have a sworn agreement

so give them their share
God is witness
over everything

men are
the supporters
of women

because God
has favoured
one over the other

and for that
they need
to spend their wealth
on them

so good wives
are obedient to God

and guard what is unseen
that God
would have them guard

and for those
whose bad behaviour
makes you afraid

warn them

and leave them
alone in their beds

and fight them

and then
if they listen and change
do not look for
any way against them

God is
Highest
All-Great

and if you are afraid
that a married couple
may split up

then bring someone
from his people
to agree on a solution
with someone
from her people
if they wish
to put things right

God
will settle
their differences

surely God is
All-Knowing
All-Aware

serve God
and do not set up
partners with Hu

be kind to parents
and close family
and to orphans
and the poor and needy

and to the neighbour
who is a stranger
and to the companion
by your side

and to the traveller
and to your slave

surely
God does not love
the proud and boastful

those who are mean
and tell others to be mean
and hide the bounty
that God has given them

and We have prepared
for those who are
ungrateful
a shameful punishment

and those who
spend their wealth
to show off to people

and do not believe
in God and the Last Day

whoever has
Satan
for a friend
an evil friend it is

what would it harm them
if they believed
in God and the Last Day

and spent of what
God has given them?

God knows them

surely
God will not wrong anyone
the weight of an ant

and Hu will double
a good deed
and give from Hu
a mighty wage

how shall it be
when We bring a witness
from every people

and bring you as a witness
against those?

on that day

those who were
ungrateful
and disobeyed
the Messenger
will wish that
the earth might be
levelled over them

they will not hide
one thing they said
from God

you who believe

do not come to Sala
when you are drunk
until you know
what you are saying

or when you are unclean
unless you are on a journey
until you have
washed yourselves

but if you are sick
or on a journey
or if you have
come from the toilet
or been with your partner
and you can find no water
then make Tayammum
with clean dust

and wipe your faces
and your hands

God is
the Destroyer-of-Bad-Deeds
Most-Forgiving

have you not seen
those who were
given a share of
the Book
paying for
the wrong way

and also wanting you
to take the wrong way?

God
knows
your enemies
best

God
is enough
for a protector

God
is enough
as a helper

and some of the Jews
twist words from
their meanings

saying

"We have heard
and we disobey"

and

"Listen
without listening"

and

"Look at us"

curling their tongues
and sneering
at the Way

if they had said

"We have heard
and we obey"

and

"Listen"

and

"Look upon us"

it would have been
better for them
and more upright

but God has
rejected them
for being ungrateful

they do not believe
except a few

you who have
been given the Book

believe in what
We have sent down

making clear
the truth
of what is with you

before We wipe out faces
and turn them
backwards

or reject them
as We rejected
the companions who
broke the Sabbath

and God's will
is done

God
does not forgive
that any other
be partnered
with Hu

less than that
Hu forgives
whoever Hu wills

whoever
partners any other
with God
has surely done something
terribly wrong

have you seen those
who seem to
make themselves
pure?

no

only God
makes pure
whoever Hu wills

and they shall not
be wronged
a single thread
of a date stone

look how they
invent lies
about God

and that is enough
for a clear wrong

have you not seen
those who were given
a share of the Book
believing in idols
and evil powers

and saying
to the ungrateful

"These
are better guided
in the Way
than those who believe"?

those are the ones
God has rejected

and for anyone
God has rejected
you will not find
a helper

do they have a share
in what Hu owns?

if that is so
they do not give
humankind
so much as a tiny speck

or are they jealous
of humankind
for the bounty
God has given them?

but We gave
the people of Abraham
the Book
and the Wisdom

and We gave them
a mighty realm

and there are some
that believe

and some that
stop people
from believing

Hell
is enough
for a Blazing Fire

as for those who are
ungrateful
for Our Signs
We will surely
roast them at a Fire

as often as
their skins are
burned away
We will give them
more skin
to taste
the punishment

surely
God is
All-Powerful
All-Wise

and those that believe
and do good deeds

We shall
let them into gardens
underneath which
rivers flow
to live there
forever and ever

in there
shall be
pure partners

and We shall let them into
cool refreshing shade

God says for you
to return
what you have been
given on trust
back to their owners

and when you judge
between people
that you judge
with justice

what God tells you to do
is good

God is
All-Hearing
All-Seeing

you who believe

obey God
and obey the Messenger
and those in charge of you

if you should quarrel
about anything
look for an answer
with God
and the Messenger

if you believe
in God and the Last Day
that is better
and fairer
in the matter

have you not seen
those who
claim to believe
in what has been
sent down to you

and in what was
sent down before you

still wanting
to take their arguments
to be settled by idols
although they have
been ordered
not to believe in them

but Satan wants them
to take the wrong way

and when it is
said to them

"Come now
to what
God has sent down
and the Messenger"

then you see
those who pretend
blocking
the Way to you

how will it be
when a disaster
strikes them
for what they have done

then they come to you
promising in God's Name

"We wanted
only kindness

and to bring people
together again"

God knows
what is in their hearts

so turn away from them
and warn them

and say to them
words that hit home
about themselves

We never sent
any Messenger
except for them
to be obeyed
with God's permission

if only those people
had come to you
and asked for
God to forgive them

and the Messenger
had asked for
forgiveness for them

they would have found
it is God
Hu turns in forgiveness
Most-Merciful

but no

by your Liege
they will not believe

until they let you decide
with regard to
what they disagree on

and then find
no barrier
inside themselves
to what you decide

and give in to you
completely

but if We had
told them
what to do

saying

"Lay down your lives"

or

"Leave where you live"

they would not have done it
except a few of them

but if they had done
as they were told
it would have been
better for them

and made them stronger
with the truth

and then

We would have given them
a great reward
from Us

and guided them
on a straight path

whoever obeys God
and the Messenger
they are with
those whom
God has blessed

Newsbringers
those who tell the truth

the witnesses
those who do good

what excellent company

that is God's bounty

God is enough
All-Knowing

you who believe

be on your guard

march in small groups
or move forward
all together

there are some of you
that hang back

then if you meet a setback
they say

"God has blessed me
that I was not there
with them"

but if God favours you
they will surely say

as if there had
never been friendship
between you and them

"If only
I had been with them
so I could have won
a mighty victory"

so let them fight
in the Way of God

those who will trade
the present life
for the world to come

and whoever fights
in the Way of God

whether
they are killed
or win the fight

We shall bring them
a great reward

and why would you
not fight
in the Way of God

for those men
women and children
who are being
cruelly treated

and say

"Our Liege
take us out of this city
whose people are
wrong doers

give us a protector
from You

and
give us a helper
from You"

those who believe
fight in the Way of God

and those who are
ungrateful
fight in the way of idols

so fight against
the friends of Satan

the trickery of Satan
is always feeble

have you not seen those
to whom it was said

"Hold back from fighting
and make the Sala
and pay the Zaka"

then as soon as
fighting
is asked of them
a group of them
fear people
as they should
fear God

or with a greater fear

and they say

"Our Liege
why have you said
that we should fight?

if only You would give us
a little more time"

say

"The enjoyment of this world
is very little

the world to come is better
for one who is
Mindful of God

you will not be wronged
by as much as
the thread of a date stone"

wherever you may be
death will catch up with you

even though you might be
in fortress towers

and if a good thing
comes to them
they say

"This has come from God"

but if a bad thing
comes to them
they say

"This has come from you"

say

"Everything comes from God"

what is the matter
with these people
that they hardly understand
a word you say

whatever good comes to you
it is from God

whatever bad comes to you
it is from yourself

and We have sent you
to humankind
as a Messenger

God
is enough
as a witness

whoever obeys
the Messenger
in that way
obeys God

and whoever turns away
We have not sent you
to be a watcher over them

they say

"We obey you"

but when they go
away from you
some of them
spend all night
thinking how to
avoid doing what you say

God writes down
what they think

so turn away from them
and put your trust
in God

God
is enough
as a guardian

do they not think
about the Reading?

if it had been from
other than God
they would have
found in it
many contradictions

when news comes to them
whether it be about
safety or fear
they spread the word around

if they had only
spoken about it
to the Messenger
and those in charge of them
those among them
who look into these things
would have known about it

and if it were not for
the bounty of God
for you
and Hu's mercy
you would surely
have followed
Satan

apart from a few

so fight in the Way of God

you only answer
for yourself

and urge on
the believers

perhaps God will
hold back
the strength
of those who are
ungrateful

God is
greater in power
more terrible
in punishing

whoever speaks
in a good cause
will receive a reward for it

and whoever speaks
in a bad cause
will receive
a trial like it

God has power
over everything

but when you are
offered a greeting
then offer
a greeting fairer than it

or return the same

surely
God takes account
of everything

God
there is no god but Hu

Hu will surely gather you
to the Day of Rising
no doubt of it

and who will speak
a truer word
than God?

how is it that you have
become two groups
with regard to
those who pretend

when God has
rejected them
for what they have done

do you want to guide
the one God leads
to take the wrong way?

whoever God leads
to take the wrong way
you will not find
a way for them

they want you to be
ungrateful
as they are ungrateful

then you would be equal
so do not
make friends with them
until they make Hijra
in God's Way

but if they run away
then seize them
and kill them
wherever you find them

do not take any of them
as a friend or helper

except for those
who take shelter
with people
with whom
you have a treaty

or those who come to you
greatly upset
at the idea of fighting
with you
or with their people

if God had wanted
Hu would have given them
the upper hand over you
and then
they certainly
would have fought you

if they keep away from you
and do not fight you
and offer peace
then God gives you
no way against them

you will find others
wanting to be safe
from you
and safe from their people

yet whenever
they meet with
temptation
they give in to it

if they do not
keep away from you
and offer you peace
and hold back
from fighting you
seize them and kill them
wherever you find them

against them
We have given you
a clear authority

a believer
shall not kill
another believer
apart from by mistake

if anyone kills a believer
by mistake
then let them set free
a believing slave

and pay to
compensate
the victim's family

unless
they let it go
for charity

if the victim
is from a people
who are enemies
but was a believer
let the one
who killed
set free
a believing slave

if the victim
is of a people
joined with you
by treaty
then money must be paid
to compensate
the victim's family

and
the one who killed
shall set free
a believing slave

and anyone who
does not have the money
should fast
two months in a row

turning to God
for forgiveness

God is
All-Knowing
All-Wise

and whoever
kills a believer
with purpose
their reward
is Hell
to live there forever

and God will be
angry with them
and reject them

and make ready
for them
a mighty punishment

you who believe

when you are travelling
in the Way of God
think carefully

and do not say
to one who
offers you a greeting

"You are not a believer"

looking for
what turns up
in the present life

with God
are spoils
galore

that is the way
you were before
but God has been
kind to you

so
think carefully

surely
God
is aware of
the things you do

those of the believers
who stayed at home

other than those
who had injury

are not the equals
of those who struggle
on God's path
with what they have
and of themselves

God has preferred in rank
those who struggle
with what they have
and of themselves
over the ones
who sit at home

yet to each
God has promised
the reward most fair

and God has preferred
those who struggle
over the ones
who sit at home
for the bounty of
a mighty reward

standing in ranks
before Hu's
forgiveness and mercy

surely God is
Most-Forgiving
Ever-Merciful

and to those
the Angels take
while they are
still doing wrong
for themselves

they will say

"In what state were you?"

they will say

"We were
cruelly treated
on the earth"

they will say

"But was not
God's earth wide
so that you might
have moved upon it?"

those
their shelter
will be
Hell

a dreadful final home

except the men
women and children
who have been
cruelly treated

who do not
have the means

and are not
guided to a way

hopefully
God will
still pardon them

for God is
the Destroyer-of-Bad-Deeds
Most-Forgiving

those who
leave their homes
in the Way of God
will find many shelters
and plenty

those who
leave their houses
and journey
to God
and Hu's Messenger
and death
overtakes them

it is God
Hu will reward them

truly God is
Most-Forgiving
Ever-Merciful

and when you are
travelling in the land
there is nothing wrong
with you
shortening the Sala

if you are afraid
that you may be harmed
by those who are
ungrateful

those who are
ungrateful
are a clear enemy
to you

and when you are
with the believers
and leading them
in Sala
let a group of them
stand with you
and let them
keep their weapons

and when they make Sajda
the others should
guard your backs

then let the other group
who have not made Sala
come and make
Sala with you
taking care
and keeping their weapons

those who are
ungrateful
want you to
forget your weapons
and your goods
so that they can
swoop down on you
all at once

there is nothing wrong
if you are troubled by rain
or you are sick
in laying aside
your weapons

but take care

God has made ready
a shameful punishment
for the ungrateful

when you have
made the Sala
remember God

standing and sitting
and on your sides

then when you are safe
make the Sala

surely the Sala
is a timed prescription
for the believers

do not be
faint hearted
in searching out
the enemy

if you are suffering
they are also suffering
as you are suffering

but you are hoping for
something from God
which they cannot
hope for

God is
All-Knowing
All-Wise

We have sent down to you
the Book
with the truth

so that you may judge
between the people
by what
God has shown you

so do not speak
on behalf of those
who are traitors

and pray for forgiveness
from God

surely God is
Most-Forgiving
Ever-Merciful

and do not argue
on behalf of those
who betray
their own souls

God does not love
guilty traitors

they hide themselves
from people
but cannot
hide themselves
from God

for Hu is with them
when they spend the night
talking of things
which do not please Hu

God surrounds
the things they do

so there you are

you have argued
on their behalf
in the present life

but who will argue
with God
on their behalf
on the Day of Rising

or who will be
their guardian?

whoever does evil
wronging their own souls

and then prays for
God's forgiveness

they shall find
God is
Most-Forgiving
Ever-Merciful

and whoever earns
the reward for
a bad deed

earns it
only for themselves

and God is
All-Knowing
All-Wise

and whoever
has earned blame
or done a bad deed

and blames it on
someone who is innocent

carries the weight of
false charges
as well as
clear wrong doing

if it were not for
God's favour to you
and Hu's mercy
some of them
could have done something
to make you take
the wrong way

but they only take
the wrong way
themselves

they do not harm you
in any way

God has sent down on you
the Book and the Wisdom

and Hu has taught you
what you did not know

God's favour to you
is ever great

there is no good
in much of their secret talk

only for the one
who urges
giving charity
or honour
or putting things right
between people

whoever does that
looking for
God's pleasure

We will surely
give them
a mighty reward

but whoever makes
a break
with the Messenger
after the direction
has been
made clear to them

and follows a way
other than that
of the believers

We shall leave them on
the path they chose

and We shall roast them
in Hell

a dreadful place
to come home to

God
does not forgive
that any other
be partnered
with Hu

less than that
Hu forgives
whoever Hu wills

whoever
partners any other
with God
has wandered
very far astray

instead of Hu
they call out to
female idols

and call out to
Satan
the arrogant one

rejected by God

it said

"Surely I will
take for myself
a certain share
of Your servants

and I will lead them
wandering astray
and fill them with
false hopes

and I will
command them
and they will cut off
the ears of livestock

and I will
command them
and they will
change God's creation"

whoever takes Satan
for a friend instead of God
has surely lost
everything

it promises them
and fills them
with false hopes

but Satan
promises them nothing

except
what misleads
and deceives

such people
their shelter
shall be
Hell

and they will find
no way to escape it

but those who believe
and do good deeds

We shall
let them enter
gardens
beneath which
rivers flow

to live there
forever and ever

God's promise is true

and who is more
true in speech
than God?

it is not wishful thinking
on your part

or the wishful thinking
of the People of the Book

whoever does wrong
will be repayed for it

and will not find
apart from God
a friend or helper

and whoever
does good deeds

whether male or female

believers

will enter Paradise

and not be wronged
in the slightest

and who is there
has a finer Way of Life
than one who
gives up their will
to God
and does good

and who follows
the Way of Life
of Abraham
a man of pure faith?

and God took
Abraham
for a friend

to God belongs
all that is in the heavens
and in the earth

God
surrounds
everything

they will ask you
for a ruling
about women

say

"God makes rulings
for you about them
and what is spoken to you
in the Book

and about
the orphan women
to whom you do not give
what they are owed
and yet want to marry them

and about the children
cruelly treated

and about your need
to get justice
for orphans

whatever good you do
God knows of it"

if a woman fears
cruelty or rejection
from her husband
there is no blame
if they set things right
between them

to set things right
is better

and souls are often
inclined to be greedy

but if you do good
and are
Mindful of God
surely God is
aware of
the things you do

you will not be able
to treat your wives equally
no matter
how much you try

but do not be unfair
leaving her
as though in mid-air

if you set things right
and are
Mindful of God
God is
Most-Forgiving
Ever-Merciful

but if they separate
God will make
each of them
richer from Hu's bounty

God is
All-Embracing
All-Wise

to God belongs
all that is in the heavens
and in the earth

We have told
those who were given
the Book
before you

and also you

to be
Mindful of God

but if you are
ungrateful

to God belongs
all that is in the heavens
and in the earth

God is
Rich-beyond-Need
All-Praiseworthy

to God belongs
all that is in the heavens
and in the earth

God is enough
for a guardian

humankind

if Hu willed
Hu could remove you
and replace you
with others

surely God has
the power to do that

whoever wants
the reward of this world

with God is
the reward of this world
and of the world to come

God is
All-Hearing
All-Seeing

you who believe

stand up for justice
witnesses for God
even though it be
against yourselves

or your parents and family

whether for
the rich or poor

God is closer
to either of them

so do not follow
what suits yourself
turning away from justice

for if you twist and turn
God is aware of
the things you do

you who believe

believe in God
and Hu's Messenger

and the Book
which Hu has
sent down on
Hu's Messenger

and the Book which
Hu sent down before

and whoever is
ungrateful

for God
and Hu's Angels
and Hu's Books
and Hu's Messengers
and the Last Day

has surely wandered
far astray

those who believe
and then are ungrateful

and then again believe
and then are ungrateful

and then become
even more ungrateful

God
is not likely
to forgive them
or guide them
in any way

give good news
to those who pretend
to follow the Way

that for them is waiting
a painful punishment

those who take
the ones who are
ungrateful
as their friends

instead of
those who believe

do they look for
glory with them?

but glory
altogether
belongs to God

Hu has sent down
upon you
in the Book

that when you hear
God's Signs
being disbelieved
and made fun of

do not sit
with those people
until they start
to talk of other things

or else you will surely be
just like them

God will gather
those who
pretend to believe

and those who
are ungrateful

all into Hell

those who wait to see
what happens to you

and if a victory
comes to you from God
they say

"Were we not with you?"

but if the ungrateful ones
have some success
they say to them

"Did we not have
the upper hand over you

and did we not defend you
from the believers?"

God will judge between you
on the Day of Rising

and God will not give
those who are ungrateful
any way
against the believers

those who
pretend to believe
try to deceive God
but God is deceiving them

when they stand up for Sala
they stand up lazily
showing off to the people

and not remembering God
except a little

switching uncertainly
all the time
between this and that

not with these or with those

and for the one
God makes
lose their way
you will not find a way

you who believe

do not take
those who are ungrateful
as friends
instead of the believers

or do you want
to give God
clear proof
against yourselves

surely those who
pretend to believe
will be in
the lowest part of
the Fire

you will not find
any helper for them

except for
those who are sorry
and make up for
what they did wrong

and hold on to God

and offer
their Way of Life
to God alone

those are with the believers

and God will surely
give the believers
a mighty reward

why would God punish you
if you are thankful
and believe?

God is
All-Thankful
All-Knowing

God does not like
the shouting of bad words

unless in the case of
someone
who has been wronged

God is
All-Hearing
All-Knowing

if you do a good deed
openly or in secret

or forgive a bad deed

surely God is
the Destroyer-of-Bad-Deeds
All-Capable

those who are ungrateful
to God
and Hu's Messengers

and want to
cause division between
God and Hu's Messengers

and say

"We believe in some
and disbelieve in some"

wanting to take
a way between this and that

in truth
those are the ones
who are ungrateful

and We have made ready
a shameful punishment

and those who believe
in God
and Hu's Messengers

and do not make
a difference between
any of them

We will surely give those
their reward

God is
Most-Forgiving
Ever-Merciful

the People of the Book
will ask you
to bring down for them
a Book from heaven

and they asked Moses
for much more than that
for they said

"Let us see God
with our own eyes"

and the thunderbolt
took them
for their doing wrong

then they took the Calf
to worship
after the Clear Signs
had come to them

but We pardoned them
and We gave Moses
clear authority

and We raised
the mountain
above them

according to
what they had agreed

and We said to them

"Enter in at the gate
in Sajda"

and We said to them

"Do not break the Sabbath"

and We took from them
a solemn agreement

so because of
their breaking
the agreement

and being ungrateful
for the Signs of God

and killing
the Newsbringers
without right

and for their saying

"Our hearts are sealed"

no indeed
God sealed them
for their disbelief

so they did not believe
except for a few

and for their being
ungrateful

and their saying
lying accusations
against Mary

and for their saying

"We killed the Messiah
Jesus son of Mary
the Messenger of God"

but they did not kill him
or crucify him
only a likeness of that
was shown to them

those who argue
about him
are surely in doubt
about him

they have
no knowledge of him
except guesses

and they certainly
did not kill him

no indeed
God raised him up to Hu

God is
All-Powerful
All-Wise

there is not one of
the People of the Book
who will not believe in him
before he dies

and on the Day of Rising
he will be a witness
against them

for the wrongdoing
done by the Jews

We denied them
certain good things
that they could have
before

and for their keeping
many people
from God's Way

and for their taking usury
that they were
not allowed to do

and for their using
the wealth of humankind
with vanity

We have made ready
for the ungrateful
among them
a painful punishment

but those of them
who are firmly rooted
in knowledge

and the believers

believing
in what has been
sent down to you

and what was sent down
before you

who make the Sala
and pay Zaka

and those who believe
in God
and the Last Day

to them
We shall
surely give
a mighty reward

We have revealed
to you
as We revealed
to Noah
and the Newsbringers
after him

and We revealed
to
Abraham
Ishmael
Isaac
Jacob
and the Tribes

Jesus
Job
Jonah
Aaron
Solomon

and We gave to
David
Psalms

Messengers
We have already
told you of
before

and
Messengers
We have not
told you of

and to Moses
God spoke
directly

Messengers
carrying
good news
and warning

so that
humankind
can have
no argument
against God
after
the Messengers

God is
All-Powerful
All-Wise

God
witnesses
what Hu has
sent down to you

Hu has sent it down
with Hu's knowledge

and the Angels
also witness

and God is
enough
for a witness

surely
those who are
ungrateful

and
keep others from
God's Way

have wandered
far astray

surely
those who are
ungrateful

who have done
great wrong

God would not
forgive them

or guide them
on any road

except
the road to Hell

to live there
forever
and
ever

and for God
that is
an easy thing

humankind

the Messenger
has brought to you
the truth
from your Liege

so believe

that is better for you

and if you are
ungrateful

to God
belongs
all that is in the heavens
and in the earth

and God is
All-Knowing
All-Wise

People of the Book

do not go
beyond the limits
in your Way of Life

and do not say
anything about
God
except the truth

the Messiah
Jesus
son of Mary
was only
a Messenger of God

and Hu's Word
that Hu gave
to Mary

and a Spirit
from Hu

so believe in God
and Hu's Messengers
and do not say

"Three"

hold back
it is better for you

God is only One God

glory be to Hu

that Hu should
have a son?

to Hu belongs
all that is in the heavens
and in the earth

God
is enough
for a guardian

the Messiah
would never
feel too proud
to be a servant
of God

nor the Angels
who stay close to Hu

whoever
feels too proud
to serve Hu

and grows in pride

Hu will surely
gather them to Hu

all of them

as for
the believers
who do good deeds

Hu will pay them
their wages in full

and Hu will
give them more
of Hu's bounty

and as for those
who feel too proud
and grow in pride

Hu will
punish them
with a painful punishment

and apart from God
they will not find
for them
a friend or helper

humankind

a clear proof
has come down to you
from your Liege

We have sent down to you
a clear light

as for those who
believe in God
and hold tight
to Hu

Hu will surely
let them into
mercy from Hu
and bounty

and will guide them
to Hu
on a straight path

they will ask you
for an opinion

say

"God says to you
about
when there are no heirs

if a man dies
having no children
but he has a sister
she shall get
a half
of what he leaves

and he is her heir
if she has no children

if there are
two sisters
they shall get
two-thirds
of what he leaves

if there are
brothers and sisters
the male shall get
the share of
two females"

God makes clear to you
so you do not
take the wrong way

God
knows
everything
