Surah Aal Imraan Recitation, Translation, and Tafseer - The Holy Quran

3:161

وَ مَا كَانَ لِنَبِیٍّ اَنْ یَّغُلَّؕ-وَ مَنْ یَّغْلُلْ یَاْتِ بِمَا غَلَّ یَوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِۚ-ثُمَّ تُوَفّٰى كُلُّ نَفْسٍ مَّا كَسَبَتْ وَ هُمْ لَا یُظْلَمُوْنَ(۱۶۱)

It is not for a prophet to be false; and whoever is false will indeed bring his falsehood with him on the Day of Reckoning when each will receive his reward without favour or wrong.

It is not for a Prophet to be fraudulent; whoso defrauds shall bring the fruits of his fraud on the Day of Resurrection; then every soul shall be paid in full what it has earned, and they shall not be wronged.

3:162

اَفَمَنِ اتَّبَعَ رِضْوَانَ اللّٰهِ كَمَنْۢ بَآءَ بِسَخَطٍ مِّنَ اللّٰهِ وَ مَاْوٰىهُ جَهَنَّمُؕ-وَ بِئْسَ الْمَصِیْرُ(۱۶۲)

Is a man who has followed the pleasure of God the same as he who has incurred His wrath, whose abode is surely Hell, a dreadful place?

What, is he who follows God's good pleasure like him who is laden with the burden of God's anger, whose refuge is Gehenna? An evil homecoming!

3:163

هُمْ دَرَجٰتٌ عِنْدَ اللّٰهؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ بَصِیْرٌۢ بِمَا یَعْمَلُوْنَ(۱۶۳)

There are different ranks with God, And God sees everything you do.

They are in ranks with God; and God sees the things they do.

3:164

لَقَدْ مَنَّ اللّٰهُ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ اِذْ بَعَثَ فِیْهِمْ رَسُوْلًا مِّنْ اَنْفُسِهِمْ یَتْلُوْا عَلَیْهِمْ اٰیٰتِهٖ وَ یُزَكِّیْهِمْ وَ یُعَلِّمُهُمُ الْكِتٰبَ وَ الْحِكْمَةَۚ-وَ اِنْ كَانُوْا مِنْ قَبْلُ لَفِیْ ضَلٰلٍ مُّبِیْنٍ(۱۶۴)

God has favoured the faithful by sending an apostle to them from among themselves, who recites to them His messages, and reforms and teaches them the Law and the judgement, for they were clearly in error before.

Truly God was gracious to the believers when He raised up among them a Messenger from themselves, to recite to them His signs and to purify them, and to teach them the Book and the Wisdom, though before they were in manifest error.

3:165

اَوَ لَمَّاۤ اَصَابَتْكُمْ مُّصِیْبَةٌ قَدْ اَصَبْتُمْ مِّثْلَیْهَاۙ-قُلْتُمْ اَنّٰى هٰذَاؕ-قُلْ هُوَ مِنْ عِنْدِ اَنْفُسِكُمْؕ-اِنَّ اللّٰهَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَیْءٍ قَدِیْرٌ(۱۶۵)

How is it that when misfortune befell you, you said: "Where has this come from?" -- even though you had inflicted disaster twice as great on (the enemy). Say: "This has come from your own selves." Surely God has power over all things.

Why, when an affliction visited you, and you had visited twice over the like of it, did you say, 'How is this?' Say: 'This is from your own selves; surely God is powerful over everything.'

3:166

وَ مَاۤ اَصَابَكُمْ یَوْمَ الْتَقَى الْجَمْعٰنِ فَبِاِذْنِ اللّٰهِ وَ لِیَعْلَمَ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَۙ(۱۶۶)

What you suffered on the day the two armies had met was by God´s dispensation, so that He may distinguish the faithful,

And what visited you, the day the two hosts encountered, was by God's leave, and that He might know the believers;

3:167

وَ لِیَعْلَمَ الَّذِیْنَ نَافَقُوْا ۚۖ-وَ قِیْلَ لَهُمْ تَعَالَوْا قَاتِلُوْا فِیْ سَبِیْلِ اللّٰهِ اَوِ ادْفَعُوْاؕ-قَالُوْا لَوْ نَعْلَمُ قِتَالًا لَّا اتَّبَعْنٰكُمْؕ-هُمْ لِلْكُفْرِ یَوْمَىٕذٍ اَقْرَبُ مِنْهُمْ لِلْاِیْمَانِۚ-یَقُوْلُوْنَ بِاَفْوَاهِهِمْ مَّا لَیْسَ فِیْ قُلُوْبِهِمْؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ اَعْلَمُ بِمَا یَكْتُمُوْنَۚ(۱۶۷)

And may distinguish the hypocrites who were told: "Fight in the way of God, or defend yourselves," and who had replied: "If we knew of the fight we would have followed you." They were nearer unbelief than faith on that day, and they said with their tongues what was not in their hearts; but God is aware of what they hide.

and that He might also know the hypocrites when it was said of them, 'Come now, fight in the way of God, or repel!' They said, 'If only we knew how to fight, we would follow you.' They that day were nearer to unbelief than to belief, saying with their mouths that which never was in their hearts; and God knows very well the things they hide;

3:168

اَلَّذِیْنَ قَالُوْا لِاِخْوَانِهِمْ وَ قَعَدُوْا لَوْ اَطَاعُوْنَا مَا قُتِلُوْاؕ-قُلْ فَادْرَءُوْا عَنْ اَنْفُسِكُمُ الْمَوْتَ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِیْنَ(۱۶۸)

To those who sit at home and say of their brothers: "They would never have been killed had they listened to us, say: "Drive away death from your midst if what you say is true."

who said of their brothers (and they themselves held back), 'Had they obeyed us, they would not have been slain.' Say: 'Then avert death from yourselves, if you speak truly.'

3:169

وَ لَا تَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِیْنَ قُتِلُوْا فِیْ سَبِیْلِ اللّٰهِ اَمْوَاتًاؕ-بَلْ اَحْیَآءٌ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ یُرْزَقُوْنَۙ(۱۶۹)

Never think that those who are killed in the way of God are dead. They are alive, getting succour from their Lord,

Count not those who were slain in God's way as dead, but rather living with their Lord, by Him provided,

3:170

فَرِحِیْنَ بِمَاۤ اٰتٰىهُمُ اللّٰهُ مِنْ فَضْلِهٖۙ-وَ یَسْتَبْشِرُوْنَ بِالَّذِیْنَ لَمْ یَلْحَقُوْا بِهِمْ مِّنْ خَلْفِهِمْۙ-اَلَّا خَوْفٌ عَلَیْهِمْ وَ لَا هُمْ یَحْزَنُوْنَۘ(۱۷۰)

Rejoicing at what God has given them of His grace, and happy for those who are trying to overtake them but have not joined them yet, and who will have no fear or regret.

rejoicing in the bounty that God has given them, and joyful in those who remain behind and have not joined them, because no fear shall be on them, neither shall they sorrow,

3:171

یَسْتَبْشِرُوْنَ بِنِعْمَةٍ مِّنَ اللّٰهِ وَ فَضْلٍۙ-وَّ اَنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا یُضِیْعُ اَجْرَ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ(۱۷۱)ﮎ

They rejoice at the kindness and mercy of God; and God does not suffer the wages of the faithful to go waste.

joyful in blessing and bounty from God, and that God leaves not to waste the wage of the believers.

3:172

اَلَّذِیْنَ اسْتَجَابُوْا لِلّٰهِ وَ الرَّسُوْلِ مِنْۢ بَعْدِ مَاۤ اَصَابَهُمُ الْقَرْحُ ﳍ لِلَّذِیْنَ اَحْسَنُوْا مِنْهُمْ وَ اتَّقَوْا اَجْرٌ عَظِیْمٌۚ(۱۷۲)

Those who obeyed the call of God and His Messenger, even after they were wounded, and took heed for themselves, shall indeed have an ample reward,

And those who answered God and the Messenger after the wound had smitten them - to all those of them who did good and feared God, shall be a mighty wage;

3:173

اَلَّذِیْنَ قَالَ لَهُمُ النَّاسُ اِنَّ النَّاسَ قَدْ جَمَعُوْا لَكُمْ فَاخْشَوْهُمْ فَزَادَهُمْ اِیْمَانًا ﳓ وَّ قَالُوْا حَسْبُنَا اللّٰهُ وَ نِعْمَ الْوَكِیْلُ(۱۷۳)

Those who were told: "They have gathered an army, beware," and their faith increased and they said: "God is sufficient for us, and the best of protectors,"

those to whom the people said, 'The people have gathered against you, therefore fear them', but it increased them in faith, and they said, 'God is sufficient for us; an excellent Guardian is He.'

3:174

فَانْقَلَبُوْا بِنِعْمَةٍ مِّنَ اللّٰهِ وَ فَضْلٍ لَّمْ یَمْسَسْهُمْ سُوْٓءٌۙ-وَّ اتَّبَعُوْا رِضْوَانَ اللّٰهِؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ ذُوْ فَضْلٍ عَظِیْمٍ(۱۷۴)

And returned with God´s favour and grace without harm, for they attended the pleasure of God; and great is the benevolence of God.

So they returned with blessing and bounty from God, untouched by evil; they followed the good pleasure of God; and God is of bounty abounding.

3:175

اِنَّمَا ذٰلِكُمُ الشَّیْطٰنُ یُخَوِّفُ اَوْلِیَآءَهٗ ۪-فَلَا تَخَافُوْهُمْ وَ خَافُوْنِ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُّؤْمِنِیْنَ(۱۷۵)

It is no one but Satan who frightens you with his allies. But do not fear him, fear Me, if indeed you are believers.

That is Satan frightening his friends, therefore do not fear them; but fear you Me, if you are believers.

3:176

وَ لَا یَحْزُنْكَ الَّذِیْنَ یُسَارِعُوْنَ فِی الْكُفْرِۚ-اِنَّهُمْ لَنْ یَّضُرُّوا اللّٰهَ شَیْــٴًـاؕ-یُرِیْدُ اللّٰهُ اَلَّا یَجْعَلَ لَهُمْ حَظًّا فِی الْاٰخِرَةِۚ-وَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ عَظِیْمٌ(۱۷۶)

And do not be grieved by those who rush into disbelief. They do no harm to God; and God will not give them any share in the life to come, and their torment shall be great.

Let them not grieve thee that vie with one another in unbelief; they will nothing hurt God; God desires not to appoint for them a portion in the world to come, and there awaits them a mighty chastisement.

3:177

اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ اشْتَرَوُا الْكُفْرَ بِالْاِیْمَانِ لَنْ یَّضُرُّوا اللّٰهَ شَیْــٴًـاۚ-وَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ اَلِیْمٌ(۱۷۷)

Those who barter unbelief for faith, will not harm God in the least, and the punishment for them will be painful.

Those who buy unbelief at the price of faith, they will nothing hurt God; and there awaits them a painful chastisement.

3:178

وَ لَا یَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْۤا اَنَّمَا نُمْلِیْ لَهُمْ خَیْرٌ لِّاَنْفُسِهِمْؕ-اِنَّمَا نُمْلِیْ لَهُمْ لِیَزْدَادُوْۤا اِثْمًاۚ-وَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ مُّهِیْنٌ(۱۷۸)

The unbelievers must not think that the respite We give them augurs well. We do so that they sink deeper into sin, and suffer an ignominious doom.

And let not the unbelievers suppose that the indulgence We grant them is better for them; We grant them indulgence only that they may increase in sin; and there awaits them a humbling chastisement.

3:179

مَا كَانَ اللّٰهُ لِیَذَرَ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ عَلٰى مَاۤ اَنْتُمْ عَلَیْهِ حَتّٰى یَمِیْزَ الْخَبِیْثَ مِنَ الطَّیِّبِؕ-وَ مَا كَانَ اللّٰهُ لِیُطْلِعَكُمْ عَلَى الْغَیْبِ وَ لٰكِنَّ اللّٰهَ یَجْتَبِیْ مِنْ رُّسُلِهٖ مَنْ یَّشَآءُ ۪- فَاٰمِنُوْا بِاللّٰهِ وَ رُسُلِهٖۚ-وَ اِنْ تُؤْمِنُوْا وَ تَتَّقُوْا فَلَكُمْ اَجْرٌ عَظِیْمٌ(۱۷۹)

God will not leave the believers in the state they are in till He has sifted the evil from the good; nor will God reveal the secrets of the Unknown. He chooses (for this) from His apostles whom He will. So believe in God and the prophets, for if you believe and fear the displeasure of God your reward will be great.

God will not leave the believers in the state in which you are, till He shall distinguish the corrupt from the good, and God will not inform you of the Unseen; but God chooses out of His Messengers whom He will. Believe you then in God and His Messengers; and if you believe and are godfearing, there shall be for you a mighty wage.

3:180

وَ لَا یَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِیْنَ یَبْخَلُوْنَ بِمَاۤ اٰتٰىهُمُ اللّٰهُ مِنْ فَضْلِهٖ هُوَ خَیْرًا لَّهُمْؕ-بَلْ هُوَ شَرٌّ لَّهُمْؕ-سَیُطَوَّقُوْنَ مَا بَخِلُوْا بِهٖ یَوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِؕ-وَ لِلّٰهِ مِیْرَاثُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَ الْاَرْضِؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ خَبِیْرٌ۠(۱۸۰)

Let not those who are niggardly of things that God has given them of His largesse think that this is good for them. In fact, it is worse; for what they grudged will be hung around their necks on the Day of Resurrection. To God belong the heavens and the earth, and God is aware of all you do.

But as for those who are niggardly with the bounty God has given them, let them not suppose it is better for them; nay, it is worse for them; that they were niggardly with they shall have hung about their necks on the Resurrection Day; and to God belongs the inheritance of the heavens and earth; and God is aware of the things you do.

3:181

لَقَدْ سَمِـعَ اللّٰهُ قَوْلَ الَّذِیْنَ قَالُوْۤا اِنَّ اللّٰهَ فَقِیْرٌ وَّ نَحْنُ اَغْنِیَآءُۘ-سَنَكْتُبُ مَا قَالُوْا وَ قَتْلَهُمُ الْاَنْۢبِیَآءَ بِغَیْرِ حَقٍّۙ-وَّ نَقُوْلُ ذُوْقُوْا عَذَابَ الْحَرِیْقِ(۱۸۱)

God has indeed heard the words of those who said: "God is a pauper whereas we are rich." We shall make a note of their words, and the murders of the prophets they committed unjustly, and say to them: "Now taste the agony of burning."

God has heard the saying of those who said, 'Surely God is poor, and we are rich.' We shall write down what they have said, and their slaying the Prophets without right, and We shall say, 'Taste the chastisement of the burning --

3:182

ذٰلِكَ بِمَا قَدَّمَتْ اَیْدِیْكُمْ وَ اَنَّ اللّٰهَ لَیْسَ بِظَلَّامٍ لِّلْعَبِیْدِۚ(۱۸۲)

This is (requital) for the deeds you had committed, for God is not unjust to any of His creatures.

that, for what your hands have forwarded, and for that God is never unjust unto His servants.'

3:183

اَلَّذِیْنَ قَالُوْۤا اِنَّ اللّٰهَ عَهِدَ اِلَیْنَاۤ اَلَّا نُؤْمِنَ لِرَسُوْلٍ حَتّٰى یَاْتِیَنَا بِقُرْبَانٍ تَاْكُلُهُ النَّارُؕ-قُلْ قَدْ جَآءَكُمْ رُسُلٌ مِّنْ قَبْلِیْ بِالْبَیِّنٰتِ وَ بِالَّذِیْ قُلْتُمْ فَلِمَ قَتَلْتُمُوْهُمْ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِیْنَ(۱۸۳)

To those who say: "God has ordained that we should not believe an apostle who does not bring burnt offerings," say: "Many an apostle had come to you before me with manifest proofs, even with what you mention; then why did you kill them if you were men of truth?"

Those same men said, 'God has made covenant with us, that we believe not any Messenger until he brings to us a sacrifice devoured by fire.' Say: 'Messengers have come to you before me bearing clear signs, and that you spoke of; why therefore did you slay them, if you speak truly?'

3:184

فَاِنْ كَذَّبُوْكَ فَقَدْ كُذِّبَ رُسُلٌ مِّنْ قَبْلِكَ جَآءُوْ بِالْبَیِّنٰتِ وَ الزُّبُرِ وَ الْكِتٰبِ الْمُنِیْرِ(۱۸۴)

If they call you a liar (remember) so had other apostles been called before you, who had come with clear signs and Scriptures and the Book enlightening.

But if they cry lies to thee, lies were cried to Messengers before thee, who came bearing clear signs, and the Psalms, and the Book Illuminating.

3:185

كُلُّ نَفْسٍ ذَآىٕقَةُ الْمَوْتِؕ-وَ اِنَّمَا تُوَفَّوْنَ اُجُوْرَكُمْ یَوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِؕ-فَمَنْ زُحْزِحَ عَنِ النَّارِ وَ اُدْخِلَ الْجَنَّةَ فَقَدْ فَازَؕ-وَ مَا الْحَیٰوةُ الدُّنْیَاۤ اِلَّا مَتَاعُ الْغُرُوْرِ(۱۸۵)

Every soul will know the taste of death. You will get your recompense in full on the Day of Resurrection; and he who is spared the Fire and finds his way to Paradise will meet his desire. As for the life of this world, it is nothing but a merchandise of vanity.

Every soul shall taste of death; you shall surely be paid in full your wages on the Day of Resurrection. Whosoever is removed from the Fire and admitted to Paradise, shall win the triumph. The present life is but the joy of delusion.

3:186

لَتُبْلَوُنَّ فِیْۤ اَمْوَالِكُمْ وَ اَنْفُسِكُمْ- وَ لَتَسْمَعُنَّ مِنَ الَّذِیْنَ اُوْتُوا الْكِتٰبَ مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ وَ مِنَ الَّذِیْنَ اَشْرَكُوْۤا اَذًى كَثِیْرًاؕ-وَ اِنْ تَصْبِرُوْا وَ تَتَّقُوْا فَاِنَّ ذٰلِكَ مِنْ عَزْمِ الْاُمُوْرِ(۱۸۶)

You will, nonetheless, be tried with your wealth and life, and will hear many untoward things from the followers of former Books and the infidels. But if you endure with patience and follow the straight path, it will surely (accord) with God´s fixed resolve about human affairs.

You shall surely be tried in your possessions and your selves, and you shall hear from those who were given the Book before you, and from those who are idolaters, much hurt; but if you are patient and godfearing -- surely that is true constancy.

3:187

وَ اِذْ اَخَذَ اللّٰهُ مِیْثَاقَ الَّذِیْنَ اُوْتُوا الْكِتٰبَ لَتُبَیِّنُنَّهٗ لِلنَّاسِ وَ لَا تَكْتُمُوْنَهٗ٘-فَنَبَذُوْهُ وَرَآءَ ظُهُوْرِهِمْ وَ اشْتَرَوْا بِهٖ ثَمَنًا قَلِیْلًاؕ-فَبِئْسَ مَا یَشْتَرُوْنَ(۱۸۷)

And remember when God took a promise from the people of the Book to make its (truth) known to mankind, and not keep back any part of it, they set aside (the pledge), and sold it away for a little gain but how wretched the bargain that they made!

And when God took compact with those who had been given the Book: 'You shall make it clear unto the people, and not conceal it.' But they rejected it behind their backs and sold it for a small price -- how evil was that their selling!

3:188

لَا تَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِیْنَ یَفْرَحُوْنَ بِمَاۤ اَتَوْا وَّ یُحِبُّوْنَ اَنْ یُّحْمَدُوْا بِمَا لَمْ یَفْعَلُوْا فَلَا تَحْسَبَنَّهُمْ بِمَفَازَةٍ مِّنَ الْعَذَابِۚ-وَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ اَلِیْمٌ(۱۸۸)

Think not that those who exult at what they have done, and who love to be praised for what they have not done, shall escape the punishment, for grievous indeed will be their doom.

Reckon not that those who rejoice in what they have brought, and love to be praised for what they have not done -- do not reckon them secure from chastisement; for them awaits a painful chastisement.

3:189

وَ لِلّٰهِ مُلْكُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَ الْاَرْضِؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَیْءٍ قَدِیْرٌ۠(۱۸۹)

For God´s is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth, and God´s is the power over all things.

To God belongs the Kingdom of the heavens and of the earth; and God is powerful over everything.

3:190

اِنَّ فِیْ خَلْقِ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَ الْاَرْضِ وَ اخْتِلَافِ الَّیْلِ وَ النَّهَارِ لَاٰیٰتٍ لِّاُولِی الْاَلْبَابِۚۙ(۱۹۰)

In the creation of the heavens and the earth, the alternation of night and day, are signs for the wise.

Surely in the creation of the heavens and earth and in the alternation of night and day there are signs for men possessed of minds

3:191

الَّذِیْنَ یَذْكُرُوْنَ اللّٰهَ قِیٰمًا وَّ قُعُوْدًا وَّ عَلٰى جُنُوْبِهِمْ وَ یَتَفَكَّرُوْنَ فِیْ خَلْقِ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَ الْاَرْضِۚ-رَبَّنَا مَا خَلَقْتَ هٰذَا بَاطِلًاۚ-سُبْحٰنَكَ فَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِ(۱۹۱)

Those who honour God in meditation, standing or sitting or lying on their sides, who reflect and contemplate on the creation of the heavens and the earth, (and say) "Not in vain have You made them. All praise be to You, O Lord, preserve us from the torment of Hell.

who remember God, standing and sitting and on their sides, and reflect upon the creation of the heavens and the earth: 'Our Lord, Thou hast not created this for vanity. Glory be to Thee! Guard us against the chastisement of the Fire.

3:192

رَبَّنَاۤ اِنَّكَ مَنْ تُدْخِلِ النَّارَ فَقَدْ اَخْزَیْتَهٗؕ-وَ مَا لِلظّٰلِمِیْنَ مِنْ اَنْصَارٍ(۱۹۲)

Whoever, O Lord, should be cast into Hell shall be verily disgraced; and the sinners shall have none to help (or save) them.

Our Lord, whomsoever Thou admittest into the Fire, Thou wilt have abased; and the evildoers shall have no helpers.

3:193

رَبَّنَاۤ اِنَّنَا سَمِعْنَا مُنَادِیًا یُّنَادِیْ لِلْاِیْمَانِ اَنْ اٰمِنُوْا بِرَبِّكُمْ فَاٰمَنَّا ﳓ رَبَّنَا فَاغْفِرْ لَنَا ذُنُوْبَنَا وَ كَفِّرْ عَنَّا سَیِّاٰتِنَا وَ تَوَفَّنَا مَعَ الْاَبْرَارِۚ(۱۹۳)

We have heard, O our Lord, the crier call inviting us to faith (and announcing): ´Believe in your Lord.´ O our Lord, to faith we have come, so forgive our trespasses, deliver us from sin, and grant us (the glory of) death with the just.

Our Lord, we have heard a caller calling us to belief, saying, "Believe you in your Lord!" And we believe. Our Lord, forgive Thou us our sins and acquit us of our evil deeds, and take us to Thee with the pious.

3:194

رَبَّنَا وَ اٰتِنَا مَا وَعَدْتَّنَا عَلٰى رُسُلِكَ وَ لَا تُخْزِنَا یَوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِؕ-اِنَّكَ لَا تُخْلِفُ الْمِیْعَادَ(۱۹۴)

Give us what You promised, O Lord, through Your prophets; and put us not to shame on the Day of Reckoning, for never do You go back on Your promise."

Our Lord, give us what Thou hast promised us by Thy Messengers, and abase us not on the Day of Resurrection; Thou wilt not fail the tryst.'

3:195

فَاسْتَجَابَ لَهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ اَنِّیْ لَاۤ اُضِیْعُ عَمَلَ عَامِلٍ مِّنْكُمْ مِّنْ ذَكَرٍ اَوْ اُنْثٰىۚ-بَعْضُكُمْ مِّنْۢ بَعْضٍۚ-فَالَّذِیْنَ هَاجَرُوْا وَ اُخْرِجُوْا مِنْ دِیَارِهِمْ وَ اُوْذُوْا فِیْ سَبِیْلِیْ وَ قٰتَلُوْا وَ قُتِلُوْا لَاُكَفِّرَنَّ عَنْهُمْ سَیِّاٰتِهِمْ وَ لَاُدْخِلَنَّهُمْ جَنّٰتٍ تَجْرِیْ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهٰرُۚ-ثَوَابًا مِّنْ عِنْدِ اللّٰهِؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ عِنْدَهٗ حُسْنُ الثَّوَابِ(۱۹۵)

The Lord heard their prayer and answered: "I suffer not the good deeds of any to go waste, be he a man or a woman: The one of you is of the other. And those who were deprived of their homes or banished in My cause, and who fought and were killed, I shall blot out their sins and admit them indeed into gardens with rippling streams." -- A recompense from God, and the best of rewards is with God.

And their Lord answers them: 'I waste not the labour of any that labours among you, be you male or female -- the one of you is as the other. And those who emigrated, and were expelled from their habitations, those who suffered hurt in My way, and fought, and were slain -- them I shall surely acquit of their evil deeds, and I shall admit them to gardens underneath which rivers flow.' A reward from God! And God with Him is the fairest reward.

3:196

لَا یَغُرَّنَّكَ تَقَلُّبُ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا فِی الْبِلَادِؕ(۱۹۶)

Be not deceived by the comings and goings of unbelievers in the land.

Let it not delude thee, that the unbelievers go to and fro in the land;

3:197

مَتَاعٌ قَلِیْلٌ- ثُمَّ مَاْوٰىهُمْ جَهَنَّمُؕ-وَ بِئْسَ الْمِهَادُ(۱۹۷)

Their commerce is but short-lived, and then their abode shall be Hell: And what an evil abode!

a little enjoyment, then their refuge is Gehenna -- an evil cradling!

3:198

لٰكِنِ الَّذِیْنَ اتَّقَوْا رَبَّهُمْ لَهُمْ جَنّٰتٌ تَجْرِیْ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهٰرُ خٰلِدِیْنَ فِیْهَا نُزُلًا مِّنْ عِنْدِ اللّٰهِؕ-وَ مَا عِنْدَ اللّٰهِ خَیْرٌ لِّلْاَبْرَارِ(۱۹۸)

But those who are pious and obedient to their Lord, will have gardens with streams of running water where they will abide as guests of God; and what is with God is best for the pious.

But those who fear their Lord - for them shall be gardens underneath which rivers flow, therein dwelling forever -- a hospitality God Himself offers; and that which is with God is better for the pious.

3:199

وَ اِنَّ مِنْ اَهْلِ الْكِتٰبِ لَمَنْ یُّؤْمِنُ بِاللّٰهِ وَ مَاۤ اُنْزِلَ اِلَیْكُمْ وَ مَاۤ اُنْزِلَ اِلَیْهِمْ خٰشِعِیْنَ لِلّٰهِۙ-لَا یَشْتَرُوْنَ بِاٰیٰتِ اللّٰهِ ثَمَنًا قَلِیْلًاؕ-اُولٰٓىٕكَ لَهُمْ اَجْرُهُمْ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْؕ-اِنَّ اللّٰهَ سَرِیْعُ الْحِسَابِ(۱۹۹)

Certainly among the people of the Book are some who believe in God and in what has been revealed to you and had been revealed to them; and they bow in humility before God, and do not trade for paltry gain the signs of God. Their reward is verily with their Lord; and swift is the reckoning of God!

And some there are of the People of the Book who believe in God, and what has been sent down unto you, and what has been sent down unto them, men humble to God, not selling the signs of God for a small price; those -- their wage is with their Lord; God is swift at the reckoning.

3:200

یٰۤاَیُّهَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوا اصْبِرُوْا وَ صَابِرُوْا وَ رَابِطُوْا- وَ اتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُوْنَ۠(۲۰۰)

So you who believe, have endurance in suffering, be patient and persevere, strengthen each other and be firm, and be pious and fear God that you may find success.

O believers, be patient, and vie you in patience; be steadfast; fear God; haply so you will prosper.
