22. Surah Al-Hajj The Pilgrimage

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّح۪يمِ

Bismi Allahi arrahmani arraheem

In the name of Allah, All-Merciful, Most Merciful

يَٓا اَيُّهَا النَّاسُ اتَّقُوا رَبَّكُمْۚ اِنَّ زَلْزَلَةَ السَّاعَةِ شَيْءٌ عَظ۪يمٌ

Ya ayyuha annasuittaqoo rabbakum inna zalzalata assaAAati shay-onAAatheem

Mankind, have taqwa of your Lord! The quaking of the Hour is a terrible thing.

يَوْمَ تَرَوْنَهَا تَذْهَلُ كُلُّ مُرْضِعَةٍ عَمَّٓا اَرْضَعَتْ وَتَضَعُ كُلُّ ذَاتِ حَمْلٍ حَمْلَهَا وَتَرَى النَّاسَ سُكَارٰى وَمَا هُمْ بِسُكَارٰى وَلٰكِنَّ عَذَابَ اللّٰهِ شَد۪يدٌ

Yawma tarawnaha tathhalu kullumurdiAAatin AAamma ardaAAat watadaAAukullu thati hamlin hamlaha wataraannasa sukara wama hum bisukarawalakinna AAathaba Allahi shadeed

On the day they see it, every nursing woman will be oblivious of the baby at her breast, and every pregnant woman will abort the contents of her womb, and you will think people drunk when they are not drunk; it is just that the punishment of Allah is so severe.

وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَنْ يُجَادِلُ فِي اللّٰهِ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ وَيَتَّبِعُ كُلَّ شَيْطَانٍ مَر۪يدٍۙ

Wamina annasi man yujadilufee Allahi bighayri AAilmin wayattabiAAu kulla shaytaninmareed

Among people there is one who argues about Allah without knowledge, and follows every rebellious shaytan.

كُتِبَ عَلَيْهِ اَنَّهُ مَنْ تَوَلَّاهُ فَاَنَّهُ يُضِلُّهُ وَيَهْد۪يهِ اِلٰى عَذَابِ السَّع۪يرِ

Kutiba AAalayhi annahu man tawallahufaannahu yudilluhu wayahdeehi ila AAathabi assaAAeer

It is written of him that if anyone takes him as a friend, he will mislead him and guide him to the punishment of the Searing Blaze.

يَٓا اَيُّهَا النَّاسُ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ ف۪ي رَيْبٍ مِنَ الْبَعْثِ فَاِنَّا خَلَقْنَاكُمْ مِنْ تُرَابٍ ثُمَّ مِنْ نُطْفَةٍ ثُمَّ مِنْ عَلَقَةٍ ثُمَّ مِنْ مُضْغَةٍ مُخَلَّقَةٍ وَغَيْرِ مُخَلَّقَةٍ لِنُبَيِّنَ لَكُمْۜ وَنُقِرُّ فِي الْاَرْحَامِ مَا نَشَٓاءُ اِلٰٓى اَجَلٍ مُسَمًّى ثُمَّ نُخْرِجُكُمْ طِفْلاً ثُمَّ لِتَبْلُغُٓوا اَشُدَّكُمْۚ وَمِنْكُمْ مَنْ يُتَوَفّٰى وَمِنْكُمْ مَنْ يُرَدُّ اِلٰٓى اَرْذَلِ الْعُمُرِ لِكَيْلَا يَعْلَمَ مِنْ بَعْدِ عِلْمٍ شَيْـٔاًۜ وَتَرَى الْاَرْضَ هَامِدَةً فَاِذَٓا اَنْزَلْنَا عَلَيْهَا الْمَٓاءَ اهْتَزَّتْ وَرَبَتْ وَاَنْبَتَتْ مِنْ كُلِّ زَوْجٍ بَه۪يجٍ

Ya ayyuha annasuin kuntum fee raybin mina albaAAthi fa-inna khalaqnakummin turabin thumma min nutfatin thumma minAAalaqatin thumma min mudghatin mukhallaqatin waghayrimukhallaqatin linubayyina lakum wanuqirru fee al-arhami manashao ila ajalin musamman thumma nukhrijukum tiflanthumma litablughoo ashuddakum waminkum man yutawaffawaminkum man yuraddu ila arthali alAAumuri likaylayaAAlama min baAAdi AAilmin shay-an watara al-ardahamidatan fa-itha anzalna AAalayhaalmaa ihtazzat warabat waanbatat min kulli zawjin baheej

Mankind! if you are in any doubt about the Rising, know that We created you from dust then from a drop of sperm then from a clot of blood then from a lump of flesh, formed yet unformed, so We may make things clear to you. We make whatever We want stay in the womb until a specified time and then We bring you out as children so that you can reach your full maturity. Some of you die and some of you revert to the lowest form of life so that, after having knowledge, they then know nothing at all. And you see the earth dead and barren; then when We send down water onto it it quivers and swells and sprouts with luxuriant plants of every kind.

ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّ اللّٰهَ هُوَ الْحَقُّ وَاَنَّهُ يُحْـيِ الْمَوْتٰى وَاَنَّهُ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَد۪يرٌۙ

Thalika bi-anna Allaha huwa alhaqquwaannahu yuhyee almawta waannahu AAala kullishay-in qadeer

That is because Allah is the Real and gives life to the dead and has power over all things

وَاَنَّ السَّاعَةَ اٰتِيَةٌ لَا رَيْبَ ف۪يهَاۙ وَاَنَّ اللّٰهَ يَبْعَثُ مَنْ فِي الْقُبُورِ

Waanna assaAAata atiyatunla rayba feeha waanna Allaha yabAAathu manfee alquboor

and the Hour is coming without any doubt and Allah will raise up all those in the graves.

وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَنْ يُجَادِلُ فِي اللّٰهِ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ وَلَا هُدًى وَلَا كِتَابٍ مُن۪يرٍۙ

Wamina annasi man yujadilufee Allahi bighayri AAilmin wala hudan walakitabin muneer

Among people there is one who argues about Allah without knowledge or guidance or any light-giving Book,

ثَانِيَ عِطْفِه۪ لِيُضِلَّ عَنْ سَب۪يلِ اللّٰهِۜ لَهُ فِي الدُّنْيَا خِزْيٌ وَنُذ۪يقُهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيٰمَةِ عَذَابَ الْحَر۪يقِ

Thaniya AAitfihi liyudillaAAan sabeeli Allahi lahu fee addunyakhizyun wanutheequhu yawma alqiyamati AAathabaalhareeq

turning away arrogantly, to misguide people from the Way of Allah. He will be disgraced in this world and on the Day of Rising We will make him taste the punishment of the Burning:

ذٰلِكَ بِمَا قَدَّمَتْ يَدَاكَ وَاَنَّ اللّٰهَ لَيْسَ بِظَلَّامٍ لِلْعَب۪يدِ۟

Thalika bima qaddamat yadakawaanna Allaha laysa bithallaminlilAAabeed

‘That is for what you did before. Allah does not wrong His slaves.’

وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَنْ يَعْبُدُ اللّٰهَ عَلٰى حَرْفٍۚ فَاِنْ اَصَابَهُ خَيْرٌۨ اطْمَاَنَّ بِه۪ۚ وَاِنْ اَصَابَتْهُ فِتْنَةٌۨ انْقَلَبَ عَلٰى وَجْهِه۪۠ خَسِرَ الدُّنْيَا وَالْاٰخِرَةَۜ ذٰلِكَ هُوَ الْخُسْرَانُ الْمُب۪ينُ

Wamina annasi man yaAAbuduAllaha AAala harfin fa-in asabahukhayrun itmaanna bihi wa-in asabat-hu fitnatuninqalaba AAala wajhihi khasira addunya wal-akhiratathalika huwa alkhusranu almubeen

Among the people there is one who worships Allah right on the edge. If good befalls him, he is content with it, but if a trial befalls him, he reverts to his former ways, losing both this world and the Next World. That is indeed sheer loss.

يَدْعُوا مِنْ دُونِ اللّٰهِ مَا لَا يَضُرُّهُ وَمَا لَا يَنْفَعُهُۜ ذٰلِكَ هُوَ الضَّلَالُ الْبَع۪يدُ

YadAAoo min dooni Allahi ma layadurruhu wama la yanfaAAuhu thalikahuwa addalalu albaAAeed

Instead of Allah, he calls on something which cannot harm him or help him. That is extreme misguidance.

يَدْعُوا لَمَنْ ضَرُّهُٓ اَقْرَبُ مِنْ نَفْعِه۪ۜ لَبِئْسَ الْمَوْلٰى وَلَبِئْسَ الْعَش۪يرُ

YadAAoo laman darruhu aqrabu minnafAAihi labi/sa almawla walabi/sa alAAasheer

He calls on what is far more likely to harm than help. What an evil protector! What an evil associate!

اِنَّ اللّٰهَ يُدْخِلُ الَّذ۪ينَ اٰمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ جَنَّاتٍ تَجْر۪ي مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهَارُۜ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ يَفْعَلُ مَا يُر۪يدُ

Inna Allaha yudkhilu allatheenaamanoo waAAamiloo assalihati jannatintajree min tahtiha al-anharu inna AllahayafAAalu ma yureed

Allah will admit those who have iman and do right actions into Gardens with rivers flowing under them. Allah does whatever He wishes.

مَنْ كَانَ يَظُنُّ اَنْ لَنْ يَنْصُرَهُ اللّٰهُ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْاٰخِرَةِ فَلْيَمْدُدْ بِسَبَبٍ اِلَى السَّمَٓاءِ ثُمَّ لْيَقْطَعْ فَلْيَنْظُرْ هَلْ يُذْهِبَنَّ كَيْدُهُ مَا يَغ۪يظُ

Man kana yathunnu anlan yansurahu Allahu fee addunya wal-akhiratifalyamdud bisababin ila assama-i thummaliyaqtaAA falyanthur hal yuthhibannakayduhu ma yagheeth

Anyone who thinks that Allah will not help him in this world and the Next World should stretch a rope up to the ceiling and then hang himself. Let him see whether his stratagem gets rid of what enrages him!

وَكَذٰلِكَ اَنْزَلْنَاهُ اٰيَاتٍ بَيِّنَاتٍۙ وَاَنَّ اللّٰهَ يَهْد۪ي مَنْ يُر۪يدُ

Wakathalika anzalnahu ayatinbayyinatin waanna Allaha yahdee man yureed

In this way We have sent it down as Clear Signs. Allah guides anyone He wills.

اِنَّ الَّذ۪ينَ اٰمَنُوا وَالَّذ۪ينَ هَادُوا وَالصَّابِـ۪ٔينَ وَالنَّصَارٰى وَالْمَجُوسَ وَالَّذ۪ينَ اَشْرَكُواۗ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ يَفْصِلُ بَيْنَهُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيٰمَةِۜ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ شَه۪يدٌ

Inna allatheena amanoo wallatheenahadoo wassabi-eena wannasarawalmajoosa wallatheena ashrakoo inna Allahayafsilu baynahum yawma alqiyamati inna AllahaAAala kulli shay-in shaheed

As for those who have iman and those who are Jews and the Sabaeans and the Christians, Magians and idolaters, Allah will distinguish between them on the Day of Rising. Allah is witness of all things.

اَلَمْ تَرَ اَنَّ اللّٰهَ يَسْجُدُ لَهُ مَنْ فِي السَّمٰوَاتِ وَمَنْ فِي الْاَرْضِ وَالشَّمْسُ وَالْقَمَرُ وَالنُّجُومُ وَالْجِبَالُ وَالشَّجَرُ وَالدَّوَٓابُّ وَكَث۪يرٌ مِنَ النَّاسِۜ وَكَث۪يرٌ حَقَّ عَلَيْهِ الْعَذَابُۜ وَمَنْ يُهِنِ اللّٰهُ فَمَا لَهُ مِنْ مُكْرِمٍۜ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ يَفْعَلُ مَا يَشَٓاءُ

Alam tara anna Allaha yasjudu lahuman fee assamawati waman fee al-ardiwashshamsu walqamaru wannujoomu waljibaluwashshajaru waddawabbu wakatheerun minaannasi wakatheerun haqqa AAalayhi alAAathabuwaman yuhini Allahu fama lahu min mukrimin inna AllahayafAAalu ma yasha/

Do you not see that everyone in the heavens and everyone on the earth prostrates to Allah, and the sun and moon and stars and the mountains, trees and beasts and many of mankind? But many of them inevitably merit punishment. Those Allah humiliates will have no one to honour them. Allah does whatever He wills.

هٰذَانِ خَصْمَانِ اخْتَصَمُوا ف۪ي رَبِّهِمْۘ فَالَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُوا قُطِّعَتْ لَهُمْ ثِيَابٌ مِنْ نَارٍۜ يُصَبُّ مِنْ فَوْقِ رُؤُ۫سِهِمُ الْحَم۪يمُۚ

Hathani khasmani ikhtasamoofee rabbihim fallatheena kafaroo quttiAAatlahum thiyabun min narin yusabbu min fawqiruoosihimu alhameem

Here are two rival groups who disputed concerning their Lord. Those who are kafir will have garments of fire cut out for them, and boiling water poured over their heads,

يُصْهَرُ بِه۪ مَا ف۪ي بُطُونِهِمْ وَالْجُلُودُۜ

Yusharu bihi ma fee butoonihimwaljulood

which will melt the contents of their bellies as well as their skin,

وَلَهُمْ مَقَامِعُ مِنْ حَد۪يدٍ

Walahum maqamiAAu min hadeed

and they will be beaten with cudgels made of iron.

كُلَّمَٓا اَرَادُٓوا اَنْ يَخْرُجُوا مِنْهَا مِنْ غَمٍّ اُع۪يدُوا ف۪يهَا وَذُوقُوا عَذَابَ الْحَر۪يقِ۟

Kullama aradoo an yakhrujoominha min ghammin oAAeedoo feeha wathooqooAAathaba alhareeq

Every time they want to come out of it, because of their suffering, they will be driven back into it: ‘Taste the punishment of the Burning!’

اِنَّ اللّٰهَ يُدْخِلُ الَّذ۪ينَ اٰمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ جَنَّاتٍ تَجْر۪ي مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهَارُ يُحَلَّوْنَ ف۪يهَا مِنْ اَسَاوِرَ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ وَلُؤْلُؤً۬اۜ وَلِبَاسُهُمْ ف۪يهَا حَر۪يرٌ

Inna Allaha yudkhilu allatheenaamanoo waAAamiloo assalihati jannatintajree min tahtiha al-anharu yuhallawnafeeha min asawira min thahabin walu/lu-anwalibasuhum feeha hareer

But Allah will admit those who have iman and do right actions into Gardens with rivers flowing under them where they will be adorned with gold bracelets and pearls, and where their clothing will be of silk.

وَهُدُٓوا اِلَى الطَّيِّبِ مِنَ الْقَوْلِۗ وَهُدُٓوا اِلٰى صِرَاطِ الْحَم۪يدِ

Wahudoo ila attayyibimina alqawli wahudoo ila sirati alhameed

They have been guided to speak good words and guided to the praiseworthy path.

اِنَّ الَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُوا وَيَصُدُّونَ عَنْ سَب۪يلِ اللّٰهِ وَالْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ الَّذ۪ي جَعَلْنَاهُ لِلنَّاسِ سَوَٓاءًۨ الْعَاكِفُ ف۪يهِ وَالْبَادِۜ وَمَنْ يُرِدْ ف۪يهِ بِـاِلْحَادٍ بِظُـلْمٍ نُذِقْهُ مِنْ عَذَابٍ اَل۪يمٍ۟

Inna allatheena kafaroo wayasuddoonaAAan sabeeli Allahi walmasjidi alharamiallathee jaAAalnahu linnasi sawaanalAAakifu feehi walbadi waman yurid feehibi-ilhadin bithulmin nuthiqhu min AAathabinaleem

Those who are kafir and bar access to the Way of Allah and to the Masjid al-Haram which We have appointed for all mankind – equally for those who live near it and those who come from far away – those who desire to profane it with wrongdoing, We will let them taste a painful punishment.

وَاِذْ بَوَّأْنَا لِاِبْرٰه۪يمَ مَكَانَ الْبَيْتِ اَنْ لَا تُشْرِكْ ب۪ي شَيْـٔاً وَطَهِّرْ بَيْتِيَ لِلطَّٓائِف۪ينَ وَالْقَٓائِم۪ينَ وَالرُّكَّعِ السُّجُودِ

Wa-ith bawwa/na li-ibraheemamakana albayti an la tushrik bee shay-an watahhirbaytiya litta-ifeena walqa-imeenawarrukkaAAi assujood

And We located the position of the House for Ibrahim: ‘Do not associate anything with Me and purify My House for those who circle it, and those who stand and bow and prostrate.

وَاَذِّنْ فِي النَّاسِ بِالْحَجِّ يَأْتُوكَ رِجَالاً وَعَلٰى كُلِّ ضَامِرٍ يَأْت۪ينَ مِنْ كُلِّ فَجٍّ عَم۪يقٍۙ

Waaththin fee annasibilhajji ya/tooka rijalan waAAalakulli damirin ya/teena min kulli fajjin AAameeq

Announce the Hajj to mankind. They will come to you on foot and on every sort of lean animal, coming by every distant road

لِيَشْهَدُوا مَنَافِـعَ لَهُمْ وَيَذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللّٰهِ ف۪ٓي اَيَّامٍ مَعْلُومَاتٍ عَلٰى مَا رَزَقَهُمْ مِنْ بَه۪يمَةِ الْاَنْعَامِۚ فَكُلُوا مِنْهَا وَاَطْعِمُوا الْـبَٓائِسَ الْفَق۪يرَۘ

Liyashhadoo manafiAAa lahum wayathkurooisma Allahi fee ayyamin maAAloomatin AAalama razaqahum min baheemati al-anAAami fakuloo minhawaatAAimoo alba-isa alfaqeer

so that they can be present at what will profit them and invoke Allah’s name on specific days over livestock He has provided for them. Eat of them and feed those who are poor and in need.

ثُمَّ لْيَقْضُوا تَفَثَهُمْ وَلْيُوفُوا نُذُورَهُمْ وَلْيَطَّوَّفُوا بِالْبَيْتِ الْعَت۪يقِ

Thumma lyaqdoo tafathahum walyoofoonuthoorahum walyattawwafoo bilbaytialAAateeq

Then they should end their state of self-neglect and fufil their vows and circle the Ancient House. ’

ذٰلِكَۗ وَمَنْ يُعَظِّمْ حُرُمَاتِ اللّٰهِ فَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لَهُ عِنْدَ رَبِّه۪ۜ وَاُحِلَّتْ لَكُمُ الْاَنْعَامُ اِلَّا مَا يُتْلٰى عَلَيْكُمْ فَاجْتَنِبُوا الرِّجْسَ مِنَ الْاَوْثَانِ وَاجْتَنِبُوا قَوْلَ الزُّورِۙ

Thalika waman yuAAaththimhurumati Allahi fahuwa khayrun lahu AAindarabbihi waohillat lakumu al-anAAamu illa mayutla AAalaykum fajtaniboo arrijsa minaal-awthani wajtaniboo qawla azzoor

That is it. If someone honours Allah’s sacred things, that is better for him in his Lord’s sight. All livestock are permitted to you except what has already been recited to you. Have done with the defilement of idols and have done with telling lies.

حُنَفَٓاءَ لِلّٰهِ غَيْرَ مُشْرِك۪ينَ بِه۪ۜ وَمَنْ يُشْرِكْ بِاللّٰهِ فَكَاَنَّمَا خَرَّ مِنَ السَّمَٓاءِ فَتَخْطَفُهُ الطَّيْرُ اَوْ تَهْو۪ي بِهِ الرّ۪يحُ ف۪ي مَكَانٍ سَح۪يقٍ

Hunafaa lillahi ghayramushrikeena bihi waman yushrik billahi fakaannamakharra mina assama-i fatakhtafuhu attayruaw tahwee bihi arreehu fee makanin saheeq

Be people of pure natural belief in Allah, not associating anything else with Him. As for anyone who associates others with Allah, it is as though he had fallen from the sky and the birds had seized him and carried him away or the wind had dropped him in a distant place.

ذٰلِكَۗ وَمَنْ يُعَظِّمْ شَعَٓائِرَ اللّٰهِ فَاِنَّهَا مِنْ تَقْوَى الْقُلُوبِ

Thalika waman yuAAaththimshaAAa-ira Allahi fa-innaha min taqwaalquloob

That is it. As for those who honour Allah’s sacred rites, that comes from the taqwa in their hearts.

لَكُمْ ف۪يهَا مَنَافِـعُ اِلٰٓى اَجَلٍ مُسَمًّى ثُمَّ مَحِلُّـهَٓا اِلَى الْبَيْتِ الْعَت۪يقِ۟

Lakum feeha manafiAAu ilaajalin musamman thumma mahilluha ila albaytialAAateeq

You can make use of the sacrificial animals until a specified time, and then their place of sacrifice is by the Ancient House.

وَلِكُلِّ اُمَّةٍ جَعَلْنَا مَنْسَكاً لِيَذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللّٰهِ عَلٰى مَا رَزَقَهُمْ مِنْ بَه۪يمَةِ الْاَنْعَامِۜ فَاِلٰهُكُمْ اِلٰهٌ وَاحِدٌ فَلَـهُٓ اَسْلِمُواۜ وَبَشِّرِ الْمُخْبِت۪ينَۙ

Walikulli ommatin jaAAalna mansakanliyathkuroo isma Allahi AAala marazaqahum min baheemati al-anAAami fa-ilahukum ilahunwahidun falahu aslimoo wabashshiri almukhbiteen

We have appointed a rite of sacrifice for every nation so that they may invoke Allah’s name over the livestock He has given them. Your God is One God so submit to Him. Give good news to the humble-hearted,

اَلَّذ۪ينَ اِذَا ذُكِرَ اللّٰهُ وَجِلَتْ قُلُوبُهُمْ وَالصَّابِر۪ينَ عَلٰى مَٓا اَصَابَهُمْ وَالْمُق۪يمِي الصَّلٰوةِۙ وَمِمَّا رَزَقْنَاهُمْ يُنْفِقُونَ

Allatheena itha thukiraAllahu wajilat quloobuhum wassabireenaAAala ma asabahum walmuqeemee assalatiwamimma razaqnahum yunfiqoon

whose hearts quake at the mention of Allah, and who are steadfast in the face of all that happens to them, those who establish salat and give of what We have provided for them.

وَالْبُدْنَ جَعَلْنَاهَا لَكُمْ مِنْ شَعَٓائِرِ اللّٰهِ لَكُمْ ف۪يهَا خَيْرٌۗ فَاذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللّٰهِ عَلَيْهَا صَوَٓافَّۚ فَاِذَا وَجَبَتْ جُنُوبُهَا فَكُلُوا مِنْهَا وَاَطْعِمُوا الْقَانِـعَ وَالْمُعْتَرَّۜ كَذٰلِكَ سَخَّرْنَاهَا لَكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ

Walbudna jaAAalnahalakum min shaAAa-iri Allahi lakum feehakhayrun fathkuroo isma Allahi AAalayhasawaffa fa-itha wajabat junoobuhafakuloo minha waatAAimoo alqaniAAa walmuAAtarrakathalika sakhkharnaha lakum laAAallakumtashkuroon

We have appointed the sacrificial animals for you as one of the sacred rites of Allah. There is good in them for you, so invoke Allah’s name over them, as they stand in rows. And then when they collapse on their sides, eat of them and feed both those who ask and those who are too shy to ask. In this way We have subjected them to you so that hopefully you will be thankful.

لَنْ يَنَالَ اللّٰهَ لُحُومُهَا وَلَا دِمَٓاؤُ۬هَا وَلٰكِنْ يَنَالُهُ التَّقْوٰى مِنْكُمْۜ كَذٰلِكَ سَخَّرَهَا لَكُمْ لِتُكَبِّرُوا اللّٰهَ عَلٰى مَا هَدٰيكُمْۜ وَبَشِّرِ الْمُحْسِن۪ينَ

Lan yanala Allaha luhoomuhawala dimaoha walakin yanaluhuattaqwa minkum kathalika sakhkharahalakum litukabbiroo Allaha AAala ma hadakumwabashshiri almuhsineen

Their flesh and blood does not reach Allah but your taqwa does reach Him. In this way He has subjected them to you so that you might proclaim Allah’s greatness for the way that He has guided you. Give good news to the good-doers.

اِنَّ اللّٰهَ يُدَافِـعُ عَنِ الَّذ۪ينَ اٰمَنُواۜ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا يُحِبُّ كُلَّ خَوَّانٍ كَفُورٍ۟

Inna Allaha yudafiAAu AAaniallatheena amanoo inna Allaha la yuhibbukulla khawwanin kafoor

Allah will defend those who have iman. Allah does not love any thankless traitor.

اُذِنَ لِلَّذ۪ينَ يُقَاتَلُونَ بِاَنَّهُمْ ظُلِمُواۜ وَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ عَلٰى نَصْرِهِمْ لَقَد۪يرٌۙ

Othina lillatheena yuqataloonabi-annahum thulimoo wa-inna Allaha AAalanasrihim laqadeer

Permission to fight is given to those who are fought against because they have been wronged – truly Allah has the power to come to their support –

اَلَّذ۪ينَ اُخْرِجُوا مِنْ دِيَارِهِمْ بِغَيْرِ حَقٍّ اِلَّٓا اَنْ يَقُولُوا رَبُّنَا اللّٰهُۜ وَلَوْلَا دَفْعُ اللّٰهِ النَّاسَ بَعْضَهُمْ بِبَعْضٍ لَهُدِّمَتْ صَوَامِــعُ وَبِيَعٌ وَصَلَوَاتٌ وَمَسَاجِدُ يُذْكَرُ ف۪يهَا اسْمُ اللّٰهِ كَث۪يراًۜ وَلَيَنْصُرَنَّ اللّٰهُ مَنْ يَنْصُرُهُۜ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَقَوِيٌّ عَز۪يزٌ

Allatheena okhrijoo min diyarihimbighayri haqqin illa an yaqooloo rabbuna Allahuwalawla dafAAu Allahi annasa baAAdahumbibaAAdin lahuddimat sawamiAAu wabiyaAAun wasalawatunwamasajidu yuthkaru feeha ismu Allahikatheeran walayansuranna Allahu man yansuruhuinna Allaha laqawiyyun AAazeez

those who were expelled from their homes without any right, merely for saying, ‘Our Lord is Allah’ (if Allah had not driven some people back by means of others, monasteries, churches, synagogues and mosques, where Allah’s name is mentioned much, would have been pulled down and destroyed. Allah will certainly help those who help Him – Allah is All-Strong, Almighty),

اَلَّذ۪ينَ اِنْ مَكَّنَّاهُمْ فِي الْاَرْضِ اَقَامُوا الصَّلٰوةَ وَاٰتَوُا الزَّكٰوةَ وَاَمَرُوا بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَنَهَوْا عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِۜ وَلِلّٰهِ عَاقِبَةُ الْاُمُورِ

Allatheena in makkannahum feeal-ardi aqamoo assalata waatawooazzakata waamaroo bilmaAAroofi wanahawAAani almunkari walillahi AAaqibatu al-omoor

those who, if We establish them firmly on the earth, will establish salat and pay zakat, and command what is right and forbid what is wrong. The end result of all affairs is with Allah.

وَاِنْ يُكَذِّبُوكَ فَقَدْ كَذَّبَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمُ نُوحٍ وَعَادٌ وَثَمُودُۙ

Wa-in yukaththibooka faqad kaththabatqablahum qawmu noohin waAAadun wathamood

If they deny you, the people of Nuh before them denied him and those of ‘Ad and of Thamud

وَقَوْمُ اِبْرٰه۪يمَ وَقَوْمُ لُوطٍۙ

Waqawmu ibraheema waqawmu loot

and the people of Ibrahim and the people of Lut

وَاَصْحَابُ مَدْيَنَۚ وَكُذِّبَ مُوسٰى فَاَمْلَيْتُ لِلْكَافِر۪ينَ ثُمَّ اَخَذْتُهُمْۚ فَكَيْفَ كَانَ نَك۪يرِ

Waas-habu madyana wakuththibamoosa faamlaytu lilkafireena thumma akhathtuhumfakayfa kana nakeer

and the companions of Madyan; and Musa was denied as well. I allowed time to the kafirun but then I seized them. How terrible was My denial!

فَكَاَيِّنْ مِنْ قَرْيَةٍ اَهْلَكْنَاهَا وَهِيَ ظَالِمَةٌ فَهِيَ خَاوِيَةٌ عَلٰى عُرُوشِهَا وَبِئْرٍ مُعَطَّـلَةٍ وَقَصْرٍ مَش۪يدٍ

Fakaayyin min qaryatin ahlaknahawahiya thalimatun fahiya khawiyatunAAala AAurooshiha wabi/rin muAAattalatinwaqasrin masheed

How many wrongdoing cities We destroyed, and now all their roofs and walls are fallen in; how many abandoned wells and stuccoed palaces!

اَفَلَمْ يَس۪يرُوا فِي الْاَرْضِ فَتَكُونَ لَهُمْ قُلُوبٌ يَعْقِلُونَ بِهَٓا اَوْ اٰذَانٌ يَسْمَعُونَ بِهَاۚ فَاِنَّهَا لَا تَعْمَى الْاَبْصَارُ وَلٰكِنْ تَعْمَى الْقُلُوبُ الَّت۪ي فِي الصُّدُورِ

Afalam yaseeroo fee al-ardi fatakoonalahum quloobun yaAAqiloona biha aw athanunyasmaAAoona biha fa-innaha la taAAmaal-absaru walakin taAAma alquloobu allateefee assudoor

Have they not travelled about the earth and do they not have hearts to understand with or ears to hear with? It is not their eyes which are blind but the hearts in their breasts which are blind.

وَيَسْتَعْجِلُونَكَ بِالْعَذَابِ وَلَنْ يُخْلِفَ اللّٰهُ وَعْدَهُۜ وَاِنَّ يَوْماً عِنْدَ رَبِّكَ كَاَلْفِ سَنَةٍ مِمَّا تَعُدُّونَ

WayastaAAjiloonaka bilAAathabiwalan yukhlifa Allahu waAAdahu wa-inna yawman AAindarabbika kaalfi sanatin mimma taAAuddoon

They ask you to hasten the punishment. Allah will not break His promise. A day with your Lord is equivalent to a thousand years in the way you count.

وَكَاَيِّنْ مِنْ قَرْيَةٍ اَمْلَيْتُ لَهَا وَهِيَ ظَالِمَةٌ ثُمَّ اَخَذْتُهَاۚ وَاِلَيَّ الْمَص۪يرُ۟

Wakaayyin min qaryatin amlaytu lahawahiya thalimatun thumma akhathtuhawa-ilayya almaseer

How many wrongdoing cities I allowed time to and then I seized them. I am their final destination!

قُلْ يَٓا اَيُّهَا النَّاسُ اِنَّـمَٓا اَنَا۬ لَكُمْ نَذ۪يرٌ مُب۪ينٌۚ

Qul ya ayyuha annasuinnama ana lakum natheerun mubeen

Say: ‘Mankind, I am only a clear warner to you. ’

فَالَّذ۪ينَ اٰمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَهُمْ مَغْفِرَةٌ وَرِزْقٌ كَر۪يمٌ

Fallatheena amanoowaAAamiloo assalihati lahum maghfiratunwarizqun kareem

As for those who have iman and do right actions, they will have forgiveness and generous provision.

وَالَّذ۪ينَ سَعَوْا ف۪ٓي اٰيَاتِنَا مُعَاجِز۪ينَ اُو۬لٰٓئِكَ اَصْحَابُ الْجَح۪يمِ

Wallatheena saAAaw fee ayatinamuAAajizeena ola-ika as-habu aljaheem

But as for those who strive against My Signs and try to thwart them, they will be the Companions of the Blazing Fire.

وَمَٓا اَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ قَبْلِكَ مِنْ رَسُولٍ وَلَا نَبِيٍّ اِلَّٓا اِذَا تَمَنّٰٓى اَلْقَى الشَّيْطَانُ ف۪ٓي اُمْنِيَّتِه۪ۚ فَيَنْسَخُ اللّٰهُ مَا يُلْقِي الشَّيْطَانُ ثُمَّ يُحْكِمُ اللّٰهُ اٰيَاتِه۪ۜ وَاللّٰهُ عَل۪يمٌ حَك۪يمٌۙ

Wama arsalna min qablika minrasoolin wala nabiyyin illa itha tamannaalqa ashshaytanu fee omniyyatihi fayansakhuAllahu ma yulqee ashshaytanu thummayuhkimu Allahu ayatihi wallahuAAaleemun hakeem

We did not send any Messenger or any Prophet before you without Shaytan insinuating something into his recitation while he was reciting. But Allah revokes whatever Shaytan insinuates and then Allah confirms His Signs – Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise –

لِيَجْعَلَ مَا يُلْقِي الشَّيْطَانُ فِتْنَةً لِلَّذ۪ينَ ف۪ي قُلُوبِهِمْ مَرَضٌ وَالْقَاسِيَةِ قُلُوبُهُمْۜ وَاِنَّ الظَّالِم۪ينَ لَف۪ي شِقَاقٍ بَع۪يدٍۙ

LiyajAAala ma yulqee ashshaytanufitnatan lillatheena fee quloobihim maradun walqasiyatiquloobuhum wa-inna aththalimeenalafee shiqaqin baAAeed

so that He can make what Shaytan insinuates a trial for those with sickness in their hearts and for those whose hearts are hard – the wrongdoers are entrenched in hostility –

وَلِيَعْلَمَ الَّذ۪ينَ اُو۫تُوا الْعِلْمَ اَنَّهُ الْحَقُّ مِنْ رَبِّكَ فَيُؤْمِنُوا بِه۪ فَتُخْبِتَ لَهُ قُلُوبُهُمْۜ وَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَهَادِ الَّذ۪ينَ اٰمَنُٓوا اِلٰى صِرَاطٍ مُسْتَق۪يمٍ

WaliyaAAlama allatheena ootooalAAilma annahu alhaqqu min rabbika fayu/minoo bihifatukhbita lahu quloobuhum wa-inna Allaha lahadiallatheena amanoo ila siratinmustaqeem

and so that those who have been given knowledge will know it is the truth from their Lord and have iman in it and their hearts will be humbled to Him. Allah guides those who have iman to a straight path.

وَلَا يَزَالُ الَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُوا ف۪ي مِرْيَةٍ مِنْهُ حَتّٰى تَأْتِيَهُمُ السَّاعَةُ بَغْتَةً اَوْ يَأْتِيَهُمْ عَذَابُ يَوْمٍ عَق۪يمٍ

Wala yazalu allatheenakafaroo fee miryatin minhu hatta ta/tiyahumu assaAAatubaghtatan aw ya/tiyahum AAathabu yawmin AAaqeem

But those who are kafir will not cease to be in doubt of it until the Hour comes on them suddenly or the punishment of a desolate Day arrives.

اَلْمُلْكُ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلّٰهِۜ يَحْكُمُ بَيْنَهُمْۜ فَالَّذ۪ينَ اٰمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ ف۪ي جَنَّاتِ النَّع۪يمِ

Almulku yawma-ithin lillahi yahkumubaynahum fallatheena amanoo waAAamiloo assalihatifee jannati annaAAeem

Sovereignty on that Day will be Allah’s. He will judge between them. Those who have iman and do right actions will be in Gardens of Delight.

وَالَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُوا وَكَذَّبُوا بِاٰيَاتِنَا فَاُو۬لٰٓئِكَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ مُه۪ينٌ

Wallatheena kafaroo wakaththaboobi-ayatina faola-ika lahum AAathabunmuheen

But those who are kafir and deny Our Signs will have a humiliating punishment.

وَالَّذ۪ينَ هَاجَرُوا ف۪ي سَب۪يلِ اللّٰهِ ثُمَّ قُتِلُٓوا اَوْ مَاتُوا لَيَرْزُقَنَّهُمُ اللّٰهُ رِزْقاً حَسَناًۜ وَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَهُوَ خَيْرُ الرَّازِق۪ينَ

Wallatheena hajaroofee sabeeli Allahi thumma qutiloo aw matoolayarzuqannahumu Allahu rizqan hasanan wa-inna Allahalahuwa khayru arraziqeen

Those who make hijra in the Way of Allah and then are killed or die, Allah will provide for them handsomely. Truly Allah is the best Provider.

لَيُدْخِلَنَّهُمْ مُدْخَلاً يَرْضَوْنَهُۜ وَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَعَل۪يمٌ حَل۪يمٌ

Layudkhilannahum mudkhalan yardawnahuwa-inna Allaha laAAaleemun haleem

He will admit them by an entrance which is pleasing to them. Allah is All-Knowing, All-Forbearing.

ذٰلِكَۚ وَمَنْ عَاقَبَ بِمِثْلِ مَا عُوقِبَ بِه۪ ثُمَّ بُغِيَ عَلَيْهِ لَيَنْصُرَنَّهُ اللّٰهُۜ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَعَفُوٌّ غَفُورٌ

Thalika waman AAaqaba bimithlima AAooqiba bihi thumma bughiya AAalayhi layansurannahuAllahu inna Allaha laAAafuwwun ghafoor

That is so. And if anyone inflicts an injury the same as the one done to him and then is again oppressed, Allah will come to his aid. Allah is All-Pardoning, Ever-Forgiving.

ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّ اللّٰهَ يُولِجُ الَّيْلَ فِي النَّهَارِ وَيُولِجُ النَّهَارَ فِي الَّيْلِ وَاَنَّ اللّٰهَ سَم۪يعٌ بَص۪يرٌ

Thalika bi-anna Allaha yoolijuallayla fee annahari wayooliju annaharafee allayli waanna Allaha sameeAAun baseer

That is because Allah merges night into day and merges day into night and because Allah is All-Hearing, All-Seeing.

ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّ اللّٰهَ هُوَ الْحَقُّ وَاَنَّ مَا يَدْعُونَ مِنْ دُونِه۪ هُوَ الْبَاطِلُ وَاَنَّ اللّٰهَ هُوَ الْعَلِيُّ الْكَب۪يرُ

Thalika bi-anna Allaha huwa alhaqquwaanna ma yadAAoona min doonihi huwa albatiluwaanna Allaha huwa alAAaliyyu alkabeer

That is because Allah is the Real and what you call on apart from Him is false. Allah is the All-High, the Most Great.

اَلَمْ تَرَ اَنَّ اللّٰهَ اَنْزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَٓاءِ مَٓاءًۘ فَتُصْبِـحُ الْاَرْضُ مُخْضَرَّةًۜ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَط۪يفٌ خَب۪يرٌۚ

Alam tara anna Allaha anzala mina assama-imaan fatusbihu al-ardu mukhdarrataninna Allaha lateefun khabeer

Do you not see that Allah sends down water from the sky and then in the morning the earth is covered in green? Allah is All-Subtle, All-Aware.

لَهُ مَا فِي السَّمٰوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْاَرْضِۜ وَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَهُوَ الْغَنِيُّ الْحَم۪يدُ۟

Lahu ma fee assamawatiwama fee al-ardi wa-inna Allaha lahuwaalghaniyyu alhameed

Everything in the heavens and everything in the earth belongs to Him. Allah is the Rich Beyond Need, the Praiseworthy.

اَلَمْ تَرَ اَنَّ اللّٰهَ سَخَّرَ لَكُمْ مَا فِي الْاَرْضِ وَالْفُلْكَ تَجْر۪ي فِي الْبَحْرِ بِاَمْرِه۪ۜ وَيُمْسِكُ السَّمَٓاءَ اَنْ تَقَعَ عَلَى الْاَرْضِ اِلَّا بِاِذْنِه۪ۜ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ بِالنَّاسِ لَرَؤُ۫فٌ رَح۪يمٌ

Alam tara anna Allaha sakhkhara lakumma fee al-ardi walfulka tajree fee albahribi-amrihi wayumsiku assamaa an taqaAAa AAalaal-ardi illa bi-ithnihi inna Allahabinnasi laraoofun raheem

Do you not see that Allah has made everything on the earth subservient to you and the ships running upon the sea by His command? He holds back the heaven, preventing it from falling to the earth – except by His permission. Allah is All-Compassionate to mankind, Most Merciful.

وَهُوَ الَّـذ۪ٓي اَحْيَاكُمْۘ ثُمَّ يُم۪يتُكُمْ ثُمَّ يُحْي۪يكُمْۜ اِنَّ الْاِنْسَانَ لَكَفُورٌ

Wahuwa allathee ahyakumthumma yumeetukum thumma yuhyeekum inna al-insanalakafoor

It is He who gave you life and then will cause you to die and then will give you life again. Man is truly ungrateful.

لِكُلِّ اُمَّةٍ جَعَلْنَا مَنْسَكاً هُمْ نَاسِكُوهُ فَلَا يُنَازِعُنَّكَ فِي الْاَمْرِ وَادْعُ اِلٰى رَبِّكَۜ اِنَّكَ لَعَلٰى هُدًى مُسْتَق۪يمٍ

Likulli ommatin jaAAalna mansakan humnasikoohu fala yunaziAAunnaka fee al-amri wadAAuila rabbika innaka laAAala hudan mustaqeem

We have appointed for every nation a rite that they observe, so let them not dispute with you about the matter. Call the people to your Lord. You are guided straight.

وَاِنْ جَادَلُوكَ فَقُلِ اللّٰهُ اَعْلَمُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ

Wa-in jadalooka faquli AllahuaAAlamu bima taAAmaloon

If they do argue with you, say: ‘Allah knows best what you are doing. ’

اَللّٰهُ يَحْكُمُ بَيْنَكُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيٰمَةِ ف۪يمَا كُنْتُمْ ف۪يهِ تَخْتَلِفُونَ

Allahu yahkumu baynakum yawmaalqiyamati feema kuntum feehi takhtalifoon

Allah will judge between you on the Day of Rising regarding everything about which you differed.

اَلَمْ تَعْلَمْ اَنَّ اللّٰهَ يَعْلَمُ مَا فِي السَّمَٓاءِ وَالْاَرْضِۜ اِنَّ ذٰلِكَ ف۪ي كِتَابٍۜ اِنَّ ذٰلِكَ عَلَى اللّٰهِ يَس۪يرٌ

Alam taAAlam anna Allaha yaAAlamu mafee assama-i wal-ardi inna thalikafee kitabin inna thalika AAala Allahiyaseer

Do you not know that Allah knows everything in heaven and earth? That is in a Book. That is easy for Allah.

وَيَعْبُدُونَ مِنْ دُونِ اللّٰهِ مَا لَمْ يُنَزِّلْ بِه۪ سُلْطَاناً وَمَا لَيْسَ لَهُمْ بِه۪ عِلْمٌۜ وَمَا لِلظَّالِم۪ينَ مِنْ نَص۪يرٍ

WayaAAbudoona min dooni Allahi malam yunazzil bihi sultanan wama laysa lahum bihiAAilmun wama liththalimeenamin naseer

They worship besides Allah something for which no authority has come down, something about which they have no knowledge. There is no helper for the wrongdoers.

وَاِذَا تُتْلٰى عَلَيْهِمْ اٰيَاتُنَا بَيِّنَاتٍ تَعْرِفُ ف۪ي وُجُوهِ الَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُوا الْمُنْكَرَۜ يَكَادُونَ يَسْطُونَ بِالَّذ۪ينَ يَتْلُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ اٰيَاتِنَاۜ قُلْ اَفَاُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِشَرٍّ مِنْ ذٰلِكُمْۜ اَلنَّارُۜ وَعَدَهَا اللّٰهُ الَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُواۜ وَبِئْسَ الْمَص۪يرُ۟

Wa-itha tutla AAalayhim ayatunabayyinatin taAArifu fee wujoohi allatheena kafarooalmunkara yakadoona yastoona billatheenayatloona AAalayhim ayatina qulafaonabbi-okum bisharrin min thalikum annaruwaAAadaha Allahu allatheena kafaroo wabi/saalmaseer

When Our Signs are recited to them – Clear Signs – you can detect denial in the faces of those who are kafir. They all but assault those who recite Our Signs to them! Say: ‘Shall I inform you of something worse than that? The Fire which Allah has promised those who are kafir. What an evil destination!’

يَٓا اَيُّهَا النَّاسُ ضُرِبَ مَثَلٌ فَاسْتَمِعُوا لَهُۜ اِنَّ الَّذ۪ينَ تَدْعُونَ مِنْ دُونِ اللّٰهِ لَنْ يَخْلُقُوا ذُبَاباً وَلَوِ اجْتَمَعُوا لَهُۜ وَاِنْ يَسْلُبْهُمُ الذُّبَابُ شَيْـٔاً لَا يَسْتَنْقِذُوهُ مِنْهُۜ ضَعُفَ الطَّالِبُ وَالْمَطْلُوبُ

Mankind! an example has been made, so listen to it carefully. Those whom you call upon besides Allah are not even able to create a single fly, even if they were to join together to do it. And if a fly steals something from them, they cannot get it back. How feeble are both the seeker and the sought!

مَا قَدَرُوا اللّٰهَ حَقَّ قَدْرِه۪ۜ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَقَوِيٌّ عَز۪يزٌ

Ma qadaroo Allaha haqqaqadrihi inna Allaha laqawiyyun AAazeez

They do not measure Allah with His true measure. Allah is All-Strong, Almighty.

اَللّٰهُ يَصْطَف۪ي مِنَ الْمَلٰٓئِكَةِ رُسُلاً وَمِنَ النَّاسِۜ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ سَم۪يعٌ بَص۪يرٌۚ

Allahu yastafee mina almala-ikatirusulan wamina annasi inna Allaha sameeAAunbaseer

Allah chooses Messengers from the angels and from mankind. Allah is All-Hearing, All-Seeing.

يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ اَيْد۪يهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْۜ وَاِلَى اللّٰهِ تُرْجَعُ الْاُمُورُ

YaAAlamu ma bayna aydeehim wamakhalfahum wa-ila Allahi turjaAAu al-omoor

He knows what is before them and what is behind them. All matters return to Allah.

يَٓا اَيُّهَا الَّذ۪ينَ اٰمَنُوا ارْكَعُوا وَاسْجُدُوا وَاعْبُدُوا رَبَّكُمْ وَافْعَلُوا الْخَيْرَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَۚ

Ya ayyuha allatheena amanooirkaAAoo wasjudoo waAAbudoo rabbakum wafAAalooalkhayra laAAallakum tuflihoon

You who have iman! bow and prostrate and worship your Lord, and do good, so that hopefully you will be successful.

وَجَاهِدُوا فِي اللّٰهِ حَقَّ جِهَادِه۪ۜ هُوَ اجْتَبٰيكُمْ وَمَا جَعَلَ عَلَيْكُمْ فِي الدّ۪ينِ مِنْ حَرَجٍۜ مِلَّةَ اَب۪يكُمْ اِبْرٰه۪يمَۜ هُوَ سَمّٰيكُمُ الْمُسْلِم۪ينَ مِنْ قَبْلُ وَف۪ي هٰذَا لِيَكُونَ الرَّسُولُ شَه۪يداً عَلَيْكُمْ وَتَكُونُوا شُهَدَٓاءَ عَلَى النَّاسِۚ فَاَق۪يمُوا الصَّلٰوةَ وَاٰتُوا الزَّكٰوةَ وَاعْتَصِمُوا بِاللّٰهِۜ هُوَ مَوْلٰيكُمْۚ فَنِعْمَ الْمَوْلٰى وَنِعْمَ النَّص۪يرُ

Do jihad for Allah with the jihad due to Him. He has selected you and not placed any constraint upon you in the deen – the religion of your forefather Ibrahim. He named you Muslims before and also in this, so that the Messenger could be witness against you and you could be witnesses against all mankind. So establish salat and pay zakat and hold fast to Allah. He is your Protector – the Best Protector, the Best Helper.
