Who made the earth a resting place for you and the heaven a canopy and (Who)
sends down rain from the cloud, then brings forth with it subsistence for you of
the fruits; therefore do not set up rivals to Allah while you know.

Who has made the earth for you (as) a bedding, and the heaven an edifice,
(Literally: a building) and has sent down out of the heaven water so He has
brought out with it (all kinds of) products as provision for you. So do not set
up compeers to Allah and you know (He has no compeers).

Sahih International
Indeed, Allah is not timid to present an example - that of a mosquito or what is
smaller than it. And those who have believed know that it is the truth from
their Lord. But as for those who disbelieve, they say, "What did Allah intend by
this as an example?" He misleads many thereby and guides many thereby. And He
misleads not except the defiantly disobedient,
Muhsin Khan
Verily, Allah is not ashamed to set forth a parable even of a mosquito or so
much more when it is bigger (or less when it is smaller) than it. And as for
those who believe, they know that it is the Truth from their Lord, but as for
those who disbelieve, they say: "What did Allah intend by this parable?" By it
He misleads many, and many He guides thereby. And He misleads thereby only those
who are Al-Fasiqun (the rebellious, disobedient to Allah).
Pickthall
Lo! Allah disdaineth not to coin the similitude even of a gnat. Those who
believe know that it is the truth from their Lord; but those who disbelieve say:
What doth Allah wish (to teach) by such a similitude? He misleadeth many
thereby, and He guideth many thereby; and He misleadeth thereby only miscreants;
Yusuf Ali
Allah disdains not to use the similitude of things, lowest as well as highest.
Those who believe know that it is truth from their Lord; but those who reject
Faith say: "What means Allah by this similitude?" By it He causes many to stray,
and many He leads into the right path; but He causes not to stray, except those
who forsake (the path),-
Shakir
Surely Allah is not ashamed to set forth any parable-- (that of) a gnat or any
thing above that; then as for those who believe, they know that it is the truth
from their Lord, and as for those who disbelieve, they say: What is it that
Allah means by this parable: He causes many to err by it and many He leads
aright by it! but He does not cause to err by it (any) except the transgressors,
Dr. Ghali
Surely Allah does not shy from striking a likeness even of a gnat, or anything
above it. So for the ones who have believed, (then) they know that it is the
Truth from their Lord, and as for the ones who have disbelieved, then they say,
"What is it that Allah would (teach) by this for a similitude?"Thereby He leads
many into error, and thereby He guides many; and thereby in no way does He lead
into error anyone except the immoral. (The ungodly, the depraved)

"Eat of whatever good things We have provided you." And in no way did they do
injustice to Us, but they were doing injustice to themselves.

Sahih International
And [recall] when We said, "Enter this city and eat from it wherever you will in
[ease and] abundance, and enter the gate bowing humbly and say, 'Relieve us of
our burdens.' We will [then] forgive your sins for you, and We will increase the
doers of good [in goodness and reward]."
Muhsin Khan
And (remember) when We said: "Enter this town (Jerusalem) and eat bountifully
therein with pleasure and delight wherever you wish, and enter the gate in
prostration (or bowing with humility) and say: 'Forgive us,' and We shall
forgive you your sins and shall increase (reward) for the good-doers."
Pickthall
And when We said: Go into this township and eat freely of that which is therein,
and enter the gate prostrate, and say: "Repentance." We will forgive you your
sins and will increase (reward) for the right-doers.
Yusuf Ali
And remember We said: "Enter this town, and eat of the plenty therein as ye
wish; but enter the gate with humility, in posture and in words, and We shall
forgive you your faults and increase (the portion of) those who do good."
Shakir
And when We said: Enter this city, then eat from it a plenteous (food) wherever
you wish, and enter the gate making obeisance, and say, forgiveness. We will
forgive you your wrongs and give more to those who do good (to others).
Dr. Ghali
And (remember) as We said, "Enter this town, so eat opulently of it where you
decide, and enter (in at) the gate, constantly prostrating and say,
(Unburdening)" (Literally: these "killings") (Then) We forgive you your sins and
We will soon increase the fair-doers.

Sahih International
But those who wronged changed [those words] to a statement other than that which
had been said to them, so We sent down upon those who wronged a punishment from
the sky because they were defiantly disobeying.
Muhsin Khan
But those who did wrong changed the word from that which had been told to them
for another, so We sent upon the wrong-doers Rijzan (a punishment) from the
heaven because of their rebelling against Allah's Obedience. (Tafsir At-Tabari,
Vol. I, Page 305).
Pickthall
But those who did wrong changed the word which had been told them for another
saying, and We sent down upon the evil-doers wrath from heaven for their
evil-doing.
Yusuf Ali
But the transgressors changed the word from that which had been given them; so
We sent on the transgressors a plague from heaven, for that they infringed (Our
command) repeatedly.
Shakir
But those who were unjust changed it for a saying other than that which had been
spoken to them, so We sent upon those who were unjust a pestilence from heaven,
because they transgressed.
Dr. Ghali
Then the ones who did injustice exchanged a saying other than that which had
been said to them. So We sent down upon the ones who did injustice chastisement
from the heaven for that they used to commit immorality.

And [recall] when Moses prayed for water for his people, so We said, "Strike

every people knew its watering place. "Eat and drink from the provision of Allah
, and do not commit abuse on the earth, spreading corruption."
Muhsin Khan
And (remember) when Musa (Moses) asked for water for his people, We said:
"Strike the stone with your stick." Then gushed forth therefrom twelve springs.
Each (group of) people knew its own place for water. "Eat and drink of that

not act corruptly, making mischief in the earth.
Yusuf Ali
And remember Moses prayed for water for his people; We said: "Strike the rock

own place for water. So eat and drink of the sustenance provided by Allah, and
do no evil nor mischief on the (face of the) earth.

Dr. Ghali
And (remember) as Musa (Moses) asked Allah) for water for his people, so We

Sahih International
And [recall] when you said, "O Moses, we can never endure one [kind of] food. So
call upon your Lord to bring forth for us from the earth its green herbs and its
cucumbers and its garlic and its lentils and its onions." [Moses] said, "Would
you exchange what is better for what is less? Go into [any] settlement and
indeed, you will have what you have asked." And they were covered with
humiliation and poverty and returned with anger from Allah [upon them]. That was
because they [repeatedly] disbelieved in the signs of Allah and killed the
prophets without right. That was because they disobeyed and were [habitually]
transgressing.
Muhsin Khan
And (remember) when you said, "O Musa (Moses)! We cannot endure one kind of
food. So invoke your Lord for us to bring forth for us of what the earth grows,
its herbs, its cucumbers, its Fum (wheat or garlic), its lentils and its
onions." He said, "Would you exchange that which is better for that which is
lower? Go you down to any town and you shall find what you want!" And they were
covered with humiliation and misery, and they drew on themselves the Wrath of
Allah. That was because they used to disbelieve the Ayat (proofs, evidences,
verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) of Allah and killed the Prophets
wrongfully. That was because they disobeyed and used to transgress the bounds
(in their disobedience to Allah, i.e. commit crimes and sins).
Pickthall
And when ye said: O Moses! We are weary of one kind of food; so call upon thy
Lord for us that He bring forth for us of that which the earth groweth - of its
herbs and its cucumbers and its corn and its lentils and its onions. He said:
Would ye exchange that which is higher for that which is lower? Go down to
settled country, thus ye shall get that which ye demand. And humiliation and
wretchedness were stamped upon them and they were visited with wrath from Allah.
That was because they disbelieved in Allah's revelations and slew the prophets
wrongfully. That was for their disobedience and transgression.
Yusuf Ali
And remember ye said: "O Moses! we cannot endure one kind of food (always); so
beseech thy Lord for us to produce for us of what the earth groweth, -its
pot-herbs, and cucumbers, Its garlic, lentils, and onions." He said: "Will ye
exchange the better for the worse? Go ye down to any town, and ye shall find
what ye want!" They were covered with humiliation and misery; they drew on
themselves the wrath of Allah. This because they went on rejecting the Signs of
Allah and slaying His Messengers without just cause. This because they rebelled
and went on transgressing.
Shakir
And when you said: O Musa! we cannot bear with one food, therefore pray Lord on
our behalf to bring forth for us out of what the earth grows, of its herbs and
its cucumbers and its garlic and its lentils and its onions. He said: Will you
exchange that which is better for that which is worse? Enter a city, so you will
have what you ask for. And abasement and humiliation were brought down upon
them, and they became deserving of Allah's wrath; this was so because they
disbelieved in the communications of Allah and killed the prophets unjustly;
this was so because they disobeyed and exceeded the limits.
Dr. Ghali
And (remember) as you said, "O Musa, (Moses) we will never (endure) patiently
one (sort) of food; so invoke your Lord for us that He may bring out for us of
what the earth grows of its green herbs and its cucumbers, and its garlic, and
its lentils, and its onions." He said, "Would you wish to exchange that which is
most charitable for that which is meaner? Get you down to (any) township; (Some
say that it is Egypt) then surely you will have (there) what you asked for." And
they were stricken with humiliation and indigence, and they incurred the anger
of Allah, That was for that they had disbelieved in the signs of Allah, and
killed the Prophets (Literally: Prophesiers) untruthfully. That was for that
they disobeyed and were (always) transgressing.

be no fear, nor shall they grieve.

Surely those who believe, and those who are Jews, and the Christians, and the
Sabians, whoever believes in Allah and the Last day and does good, they shall
have their reward from their Lord, and there is no fear for them, nor shall they

Dr. Ghali
Surely (the ones) who have believed and the ones who have Judaized and the
Nasara (Christians) and the Sabi'in, (Sabaeans) whoever have believed in Allah
and the Last Day and done righteousness, then they will have their reward in the
Providence of their Lord, and no fear will be on them, neither will they grieve.

Then, even after that, ye turned away, and if it had not been for the grace of

Sahih International
He said, "He says, 'It is a cow neither trained to plow the earth nor to
irrigate the field, one free from fault with no spot upon her.' " They said,
"Now you have come with the truth." So they slaughtered her, but they could
hardly do it.
Muhsin Khan
He [Musa (Moses)] said, "He says, 'It is a cow neither trained to till the soil
nor water the fields, sound, having no other colour except bright yellow.' "
They said, "Now you have brought the truth." So they slaughtered it though they
were near to not doing it.
Pickthall
(Moses) answered: Lo! He saith: Verily she is a cow unyoked; she plougheth not
the soil nor watereth the tilth; whole and without mark. They said: Now thou
bringest the truth. So they sacrificed her, though almost they did not.
Yusuf Ali
He said: "He says: A heifer not trained to till the soil or water the fields;
sound and without blemish." They said: "Now hast thou brought the truth." Then
they offered her in sacrifice, but not with good-will.
Shakir
Musa said: He says, Surely she is a cow not made submissive that she should
plough the land, nor does she irrigate the tilth; sound, without a blemish in
her. They said: Now you have brought the truth; so they sacrificed her, though
they had not the mind to do (it).
Dr. Ghali
He said, "Surely He says that surely she is a cow not tractable (Literally made
subservient) to stir the earth or to water the tillage, with no blemish in it.
They said, "Now you have come with the truth." So, they slew her, and they had
scarcely performed that.

Then your hearts became hardened after that, being like stones or even harder.
For indeed, there are stones from which rivers burst forth, and there are some
of them that split open and water comes out, and there are some of them that
fall down for fear of Allah . And Allah is not unaware of what you do.
Muhsin Khan
Then, after that, your hearts were hardened and became as stones or even worse
in hardness. And indeed, there are stones out of which rivers gush forth, and
indeed, there are of them (stones) which split asunder so that water flows from
them, and indeed, there are of them (stones) which fall down for fear of Allah.
And Allah is not unaware of what you do.
Pickthall
Then, even after that, your hearts were hardened and became as rocks, or worse
than rocks, for hardness. For indeed there are rocks from out which rivers gush,
and indeed there are rocks which split asunder so that water floweth from them.
And indeed there are rocks which fall down for the fear of Allah. Allah is not
unaware of what ye do.
Yusuf Ali
Thenceforth were your hearts hardened: They became like a rock and even worse in
hardness. For among rocks there are some from which rivers gush forth; others
there are which when split asunder send forth water; and others which sink for
fear of Allah. And Allah is not unmindful of what ye do.
Shakir
Then your hearts hardened after that, so that they were like rocks, rather worse
in hardness; and surely there are some rocks from which streams burst forth, and
surely there are some of them which split asunder so water issues out of them,
and surely there are some of them which fall down for fear of Allah, and Allah
is not at all heedless of what you do.
Dr. Ghali
Thereafter your hearts hardened even after that; so they were as stones, or
(even) strictly harder. And surely there are stones from which rivers erupt
forth, and surely there are (some) that cleave so that water goes out of them,
and surely there are (still others) that crash down in the apprehension of
Allah. And in no way is Allah ever heedless of whatever you do.

Do you covet [the hope, O believers], that they would believe for you while a
party of them used to hear the words of Allah and then distort the Torah after
they had understood it while they were knowing?
Muhsin Khan
Do you (faithful believers) covet that they will believe in your religion
inspite of the fact that a party of them (Jewish rabbis) used to hear the Word
of Allah [the Taurat (Torah)], then they used to change it knowingly after they
understood it?
Pickthall
Have ye any hope that they will be true to you when a party of them used to
listen to the word of Allah, then used to change it, after they had understood
it, knowingly?
Yusuf Ali
Can ye (o ye men of Faith) entertain the hope that they will believe in you?-
Seeing that a party of them heard the Word of Allah, and perverted it knowingly
after they understood it.
Shakir
Do you then hope that they would believe in you, and a party from among them
indeed used to hear the Word of Allah, then altered it after they had understood
it, and they know (this).
Dr. Ghali
Do you then long for (the fact) that they should believe you, and a group of
them already were hearing the Speech of Allah; thereafter they perverted it even
after they had considered it, while they knew (the Truth).

Sahih International
Then, you are those [same ones who are] killing one another and evicting a party
of your people from their homes, cooperating against them in sin and aggression.
And if they come to you as captives, you ransom them, although their eviction
was forbidden to you. So do you believe in part of the Scripture and disbelieve
in part? Then what is the recompense for those who do that among you except
disgrace in worldly life; and on the Day of Resurrection they will be sent back
to the severest of punishment. And Allah is not unaware of what you do.
Muhsin Khan
After this, it is you who kill one another and drive out a party of you from
their homes, assist (their enemies) against them, in sin and transgression. And
if they come to you as captives, you ransom them, although their expulsion was
forbidden to you. Then do you believe in a part of the Scripture and reject the
rest? Then what is the recompense of those who do so among you, except disgrace
in the life of this world, and on the Day of Resurrection they shall be
consigned to the most grievous torment. And Allah is not unaware of what you do.
Pickthall
Yet ye it is who slay each other and drive out a party of your people from their
homes, supporting one another against them by sin and transgression? - and if
they came to you as captives ye would ransom them, whereas their expulsion was
itself unlawful for you - Believe ye in part of the Scripture and disbelieve ye
in part thereof? And what is the reward of those who do so save ignominy in the
life of the world, and on the Day of Resurrection they will be consigned to the
most grievous doom. For Allah is not unaware of what ye do.
Yusuf Ali
After this it is ye, the same people, who slay among yourselves, and banish a
party of you from their homes; assist (Their enemies) against them, in guilt and
rancour; and if they come to you as captives, ye ransom them, though it was not
lawful for you to banish them. Then is it only a part of the Book that ye
believe in, and do ye reject the rest? but what is the reward for those among
you who behave like this but disgrace in this life?- and on the Day of Judgment
they shall be consigned to the most grievous penalty. For Allah is not unmindful
of what ye do.
Shakir
Yet you it is who slay your people and turn a party from among you out of their
homes, backing each other up against them unlawfully and exceeding the limits;
and if they should come to you, as captives you would ransom them-- while their
very turning out was unlawful for you. Do you then believe in a part of the Book
and disbelieve in the other? What then is the re ward of such among you as do
this but disgrace in the life of this world, and on the day of resurrection they
shall be sent back to the most grievous chastisement, and Allah is not at all
heedless of what you do.
Dr. Ghali
(Yet) thereafter, you are these (who) kill yourselves (i.e. kill some of you)
and drive out a group among you from their residences, backing each other
against them in vice and hostility; and in case they come up to you captured,
you ransom them, (while) driving them out is prohibited for you. Do you then
believe in some (parts) of the Book and disbelieve in other parts? (Literally:
in some parts) So in no way is the recompense of whoever of you performs that
(anything) except disgrace in the present (Literally: the lowly (life), i.e.,
the life of this world) life, and on the Day of the Resurrection they are to be
turned back to the strictest torment. And in no way is Allah ever heedless of
whatever you do.

Pickthall
Such are those who buy the life of the world at the price of the Hereafter.
Their punishment will not be lightened, neither will they have support.
Yusuf Ali
These are the people who buy the life of this world at the price of the

Shakir
These are they who buy the life of this world for the hereafter, so their
chastisement shall not be lightened nor shall they be helped.

Sahih International
And We did certainly give Moses the Torah and followed up after him with
messengers. And We gave Jesus, the son of Mary, clear proofs and supported him
with the Pure Spirit. But is it [not] that every time a messenger came to you,
[O Children of Israel], with what your souls did not desire, you were arrogant?
And a party [of messengers] you denied and another party you killed.
Muhsin Khan
And indeed, We gave Musa (Moses) the Book and followed him up with a succession
of Messengers. And We gave 'Iesa (Jesus), the son of Maryam (Mary), clear signs
and supported him with Ruh-ul-Qudus [Jibrael (Gabriel) ]. Is it that whenever
there came to you a Messenger with what you yourselves desired not, you grew
arrogant? Some, you disbelieved and some, you killed.
Pickthall
And verily We gave unto Moses the Scripture and We caused a train of messengers
to follow after him, and We gave unto Jesus, son of Mary, clear proofs (of
Allah's sovereignty), and We supported him with the Holy spirit. Is it ever so,
that, when there cometh unto you a messenger (from Allah) with that which ye
yourselves desire not, ye grow arrogant, and some ye disbelieve and some ye
slay?
Yusuf Ali
We gave Moses the Book and followed him up with a succession of messengers; We
gave Jesus the son of Mary Clear (Signs) and strengthened him with the holy
spirit. Is it that whenever there comes to you a messenger with what ye
yourselves desire not, ye are puffed up with pride?- Some ye called impostors,
and others ye slay!
Shakir
And most certainly We gave Musa the Book and We sent apostles after him one
after another; and We gave Isa, the son of Marium, clear arguments and
strengthened him with the holy spirit, What! whenever then an apostle came to
you with that which your souls did not desire, you were insolent so you called
some liars and some you slew.
Dr. Ghali
And indeed We already brought Musa (Moses) the Book, and We made to supervene
the (other) Messengers even after him; and We brought Isa son of Maryam (Jesus
son of Mary) the supreme evidences and aided him with the Spirit of Holiness;
(The Holy Spirit, the Angle jibril "Gabriel") yet, is it not (the case that)
whenever there came to you a Messenger with what (you) yourselves did not yearn
to, you waxed proud, (and) so you cried lies to a group of them and (another)
group you kill?

وَلَمَّا جَاءَهُمْ كِتَابٌ مِّنْ عِندِ اللهِ مُصَدِّقٌ لِّمَا مَعَهُمْ

Sahih International
And when there came to them a Book from Allah confirming that which was with
them - although before they used to pray for victory against those who
disbelieved - but [then] when there came to them that which they recognized,
they disbelieved in it; so the curse of Allah will be upon the disbelievers.
Muhsin Khan
And when there came to them (the Jews), a Book (this Quran) from Allah
confirming what is with them [the Taurat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)],
although aforetime they had invoked Allah (for coming of Muhammad Peace be upon
him ) in order to gain victory over those who disbelieved, then when there came
to them that which they had recognised, they disbelieved in it. So let the Curse
of Allah be on the disbelievers.
Pickthall
And when there cometh unto them a scripture from Allah, confirming that in their
possession - though before that they were asking for a signal triumph over those
who disbelieved - and when there cometh unto them that which they know (to be
the truth) they disbelieve therein. The curse of Allah is on disbelievers.
Yusuf Ali
And when there comes to them a Book from Allah, confirming what is with them,-
although from of old they had prayed for victory against those without Faith,-
when there comes to them that which they (should) have recognised, they refuse
to believe in it but the curse of Allah is on those without Faith.
Shakir
And when there came to them a Book from Allah verifying that which they have,
and aforetime they used to pray for victory against those who disbelieve, but
when there came to them (Prophet) that which they did not recognize, they
disbelieved in him; so Allah's curse is on the unbelievers.
Dr. Ghali
And as soon as a Book came to them from the Providence of Allah, sincerely
(verifying) what was with them-and they earlies prayed for an opening (victory,
conquest) over the ones who disbelieved-yet, as soon as there came to them what
they recognized, they disbelieved in it; so the curse of Allah is on the
disbelievers.

Sahih International
How wretched is that for which they sold themselves - that they would disbelieve
in what Allah has revealed through [their] outrage that Allah would send down
His favor upon whom He wills from among His servants. So they returned having
[earned] wrath upon wrath. And for the disbelievers is a humiliating punishment.
Muhsin Khan
How bad is that for which they have sold their ownselves, that they should
disbelieve in that which Allah has revealed (the Quran), grudging that Allah
should reveal of His Grace unto whom He will of His slaves. So they have drawn
on themselves wrath upon wrath. And for the disbelievers, there is disgracing
torment.
Pickthall
Evil is that for which they sell their souls: that they should disbelieve in
that which Allah hath revealed, grudging that Allah should reveal of His bounty
unto whom He will of His slaves. They have incurred anger upon anger. For
disbelievers is a shameful doom.
Yusuf Ali
Miserable is the price for which they have sold their souls, in that they deny
(the revelation) which Allah has sent down, in insolent envy that Allah of His
Grace should send it to any of His servants He pleases: Thus have they drawn on
themselves Wrath upon Wrath. And humiliating is the punishment of those who
reject Faith.
Shakir
Evil is that for which they have sold their souls-- that they should deny what
Allah has revealed, out of envy that Allah should send down of His grace on
whomsoever of His servants He pleases; so they have made themselves deserving of
wrath upon wrath, and there is a disgraceful punishment for the unbelievers.
Dr. Ghali
Miserable is that (for which) they have traded themselves, that they have
disbelieved in what Allah has sent down, inequitably (grudging) that Allah
should (be) sending down of His Grace upon whomever He decides of His bondmen.
So they incurred anger upon anger; and for the disbelievers is a degrading
torment.

And you will surely find them the most greedy of people for life - [even] more

And verily, you will find them (the Jews) the greediest of mankind for life and

And indeed you will definitely find them the eagerest of mankind for life, and

him move away from torment that he is granted a long life; and Allah is
Ever-Beholding of whatever they do.

Sahih International
And they followed [instead] what the devils had recited during the reign of
Solomon. It was not Solomon who disbelieved, but the devils disbelieved,
teaching people magic and that which was revealed to the two angels at Babylon,
Harut and Marut. But the two angels do not teach anyone unless they say, "We are
a trial, so do not disbelieve [by practicing magic]." And [yet] they learn from
them that by which they cause separation between a man and his wife. But they do
not harm anyone through it except by permission of Allah . And the people learn
what harms them and does not benefit them. But the Children of Israel certainly
knew that whoever purchased the magic would not have in the Hereafter any share.
And wretched is that for which they sold themselves, if they only knew.
Muhsin Khan
They followed what the Shayatin (devils) gave out (falsely of the magic) in the
lifetime of Sulaiman (Solomon). Sulaiman did not disbelieve, but the Shayatin
(devils) disbelieved, teaching men magic and such things that came down at
Babylon to the two angels, Harut and Marut, but neither of these two (angels)
taught anyone (such things) till they had said, "We are only for trial, so
disbelieve not (by learning this magic from us)." And from these (angels) people
learn that by which they cause separation between man and his wife, but they
could not thus harm anyone except by Allah's Leave. And they learn that which
harms them and profits them not. And indeed they knew that the buyers of it
(magic) would have no share in the Hereafter. And how bad indeed was that for
which they sold their ownselves, if they but knew.
Pickthall
And follow that which the devils falsely related against the kingdom of Solomon.
Solomon disbelieved not; but the devils disbelieved, teaching mankind magic and
that which was revealed to the two angels in Babel, Harut and Marut. Nor did
they (the two angels) teach it to anyone till they had said: We are only a
temptation, therefore disbelieve not (in the guidance of Allah). And from these
two (angles) people learn that by which they cause division between man and
wife; but they injure thereby no-one save by Allah's leave. And they learn that
which harmeth them and profiteth them not. And surely they do know that he who
trafficketh therein will have no (happy) portion in the Hereafter; and surely
evil is the price for which they sell their souls, if they but knew.
Yusuf Ali
They followed what the evil ones gave out (falsely) against the power of
Solomon: the blasphemers Were, not Solomon, but the evil ones, teaching men
Magic, and such things as came down at babylon to the angels Harut and Marut.
But neither of these taught anyone (Such things) without saying: "We are only
for trial; so do not blaspheme." They learned from them the means to sow discord
between man and wife. But they could not thus harm anyone except by Allah's
permission. And they learned what harmed them, not what profited them. And they
knew that the buyers of (magic) would have no share in the happiness of the
Hereafter. And vile was the price for which they did sell their souls, if they
but knew!
Shakir
And they followed what the Shaitans chanted of sorcery in the reign of Sulaiman,
and Sulaiman was not an unbeliever, but the Shaitans disbelieved, they taught
men sorcery and that was sent down to the two angels at Babel, Harut and Marut,
yet these two taught no man until they had said, "Surely we are only a trial,
therefore do not be a disbeliever." Even then men learned from these two, magic
by which they might cause a separation between a man and his wife; and they
cannot hurt with it any one except with Allah's permission, and they learned
what harmed them and did not profit them, and certainly they know that he who
bought it should have no share of good in the hereafter and evil was the price
for which they sold their souls; had they but known this.
Dr. Ghali
And they closely followed what the Ash-Shayatin (the all-vicious (ones), i.e.,
the devils) recited over Sulayman's (Soloman's) kingdom. And in no way did
Sulayman (Solomon) disbelieve but Ash- Shayatin (The all-vicious (ones), i.e.,
the devils) disbelieved, teaching mankind sorcery, and that which was sent down
upon the two Angels in Babil, (Babylon) Harut and Marut; and in no way did they
teach anyone till they said, "Surely we are only a temptation, so, do not
disbelieve." Then from them (The two angels) they learned that by which they
could cause separation between a person and his spouse. And in no way are they
harming anyone except by the permission of Allah ; and they learned what harmed
them and did not profit them. And indeed they already knew that indeed whoever
trades it, in no way should he have any apportioning (of Grace) in the
Hereafter; and miserable indeed was (that) for which they bartered themselves,
if they had known (the Truth).

to Allah, far better would have been the reward from their Lord, if they but

And if they had believed and guarded themselves (against evil), reward from

And if it be that they had believed and been pious, a requiting from the
Providence of Allah would indeed have been most charitable if they had known.

And be steadfast in prayer and regular in charity: And whatever good ye send
forth for your souls before you, ye shall find it with Allah: for Allah sees
Well all that ye do.

And keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate and whatever good you send before for
yourselves, you shall find it with Allah; surely Allah sees what you do.
Dr. Ghali
And keep up the prayer and bring the Zakat, (i.e., pay the poor-dues) and
whatever charity you forward for yourselves, you will find it in the Providence
of Allah; surely Allah is Ever-Beholding of whatever you do.

That is [merely] their wishful thinking, Say, "Produce your proof, if you should

are their own desires. Say: Bring your proof (of what ye state) if ye are

Ayah 2:112 الأية
بَلَىٰ مَنْ أَسْلَمَ وَجْهَهُ لِلَّهِ وَهُوَ مُحْسِنٌ فَلَهُ أَجْرُهُ عِندَ
رَبِّهِ وَلَا خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ
Bala man aslama wajhahu lillahiwahuwa muhsinun falahu ajruhu AAinda rabbihi

Sahih International
Yes [on the contrary], whoever submits his face in Islam to Allah while being a
doer of good will have his reward with his Lord. And no fear will there be
concerning them, nor will they grieve.
Muhsin Khan
Yes, but whoever submits his face (himself) to Allah (i.e. follows Allah's
Religion of Islamic Monotheism) and he is a Muhsin (good-doer i.e. performs good
deeds totally for Allah's sake only without any show off or to gain praise or
fame, etc., and in accordance with the Sunnah of Allah's Messenger Muhammad
Peace be upon him ) then his reward is with his Lord (Allah), on such shall be
no fear, nor shall they grieve. [See Tafsir Ibn Kathir, Vol.1, Page 154].
Pickthall
Nay, but whosoever surrendereth his purpose to Allah while doing good, his
reward is with his Lord; and there shall no fear come upon them neither shall
they grieve.
Yusuf Ali
Nay,-whoever submits His whole self to Allah and is a doer of good,- He will get
his reward with his Lord; on such shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.
Shakir
Yes! whoever submits himself entirely to Allah and he is the doer of good (to
others) he has his reward from his Lord, and there is no fear for him nor shall
he grieve.
Dr. Ghali
Yes indeed, whoever has surrendered his face (i.e., surrendered his will) to
Allah and is a fair-doer, then he has his reward in the Providence of his Lord
and no fear will be upon them, neither will they grieve.

Sahih International
The Jews say "The Christians have nothing [true] to stand on," and the
Christians say, "The Jews have nothing to stand on," although they [both] recite
the Scripture. Thus the polytheists speak the same as their words. But Allah
will judge between them on the Day of Resurrection concerning that over which
they used to differ.
Muhsin Khan
The Jews said that the Christians follow nothing (i.e. are not on the right
religion); and the Christians said that the Jews follow nothing (i.e. are not on
the right religion); though they both recite the Scripture. Like unto their
word, said (the pagans) who know not. Allah will judge between them on the Day
of Resurrection about that wherein they have been differing.
Pickthall
And the Jews say the Christians follow nothing (true), and the Christians say
the Jews follow nothing (true); yet both are readers of the Scripture. Even thus
speak those who know not. Allah will judge between them on the Day of
Resurrection concerning that wherein they differ.
Yusuf Ali
The Jews say: "The Christians have naught (to stand) upon; and the Christians
say: "The Jews have naught (To stand) upon." Yet they (Profess to) study the
(same) Book. Like unto their word is what those say who know not; but Allah will
judge between them in their quarrel on the Day of Judgment.
Shakir
And the Jews say: The Christians do not follow anything (good) and the
Christians say: The Jews do not follow anything (good) while they recite the
(same) Book. Even thus say those who have no knowledge, like to what they say;
so Allah shall judge between them on the day of resurrection in what they
differ.
Dr. Ghali
And the Jews have said, "The Nasara (i.e. the Christians) do not (stand) on
anything, " and the Nasara have said, "The Jews do not (stand) on anything, "
and they recite the Book. Thus the ones who do not know have said the like of
their saying. So, Allah will judge between them on the Day of the Resurrection
wherein they used to differ.

Sahih International
And who are more unjust than those who prevent the name of Allah from being
mentioned in His mosques and strive toward their destruction. It is not for them
to enter them except in fear. For them in this world is disgrace, and they will
have in the Hereafter a great punishment.
Muhsin Khan
And who is more unjust than those who forbid that Allah's Name be glorified and
mentioned much (i.e. prayers and invocations, etc.) in Allah's Mosques and
strive for their ruin? It was not fitting that such should themselves enter them
(Allah's Mosques) except in fear. For them there is disgrace in this world, and
they will have a great torment in the Hereafter.
Pickthall
And who doth greater wrong than he who forbiddeth the approach to the
sanctuaries of Allah lest His name should be mentioned therein, and striveth for
their ruin. As for such, it was never meant that they should enter them except
in fear. Theirs in the world is ignominy and theirs in the Hereafter is an awful
doom.
Yusuf Ali
And who is more unjust than he who forbids that in places for the worship of
Allah, Allah's name should be celebrated?-whose zeal is (in fact) to ruin them?
It was not fitting that such should themselves enter them except in fear. For
them there is nothing but disgrace in this world, and in the world to come, an
exceeding torment.
Shakir
And who is more unjust than he who prevents (men) from the masjids of Allah,
that His name should be remembered in them, and strives to ruin them? (As for)
these, it was not proper for them that they should have entered them except in
fear; they shall meet with disgrace in this world, and they shall have great
chastisement in the hereafter.
Dr. Ghali
And who is more unjust than he who prevents (praying in) the mosques of Allah so
that His Name be not mentioned in them, and endeavors (diligently) for their
ruin? Those can in no way enter them except in fear, for them is disgrace in the
present life (Literally: The lowly, i.e., the life of this world) and in the
Hereafter they will have a tremendous torment.

And Allah's is the East and the West, therefore, whither you turn, thither is
Allah's purpose; surely Allah is Ample-giving, Knowing.

And Allah has the East and the West; so, wherever you turn around, (then) hence
is the Face of Allah; surely Allah is Ever-Embracing, Ever-Knowing.

They say, " Allah has taken a son." Exalted is He! Rather, to Him belongs
whatever is in the heavens and the earth. All are devoutly obedient to Him,

Him). Nay, to Him belongs all that is in the heavens and on earth, and all
surrender with obedience (in worship) to Him.
