اَلنِّسَآء
176 Ayaat مدنیۃ
وَّ اَخْذِهِمُ الرِّبٰوا وَ قَدْ نُهُوْا عَنْهُ وَ اَكْلِهِمْ اَمْوَالَ النَّاسِ بِالْبَاطِلِؕ-وَ اَعْتَدْنَا لِلْكٰفِرِیْنَ مِنْهُمْ عَذَابًا اَلِیْمًا(۱۶۱)
And because they practised usury although it had been forbidden them; and for using others´ wealth unjustly. For those who are unbelievers among them We have reserved a painful punishment.
That they took usury, though they were forbidden; and that they devoured men's substance wrongfully;- we have prepared for those among them who reject faith a grievous punishment.
لٰكِنِ الرّٰسِخُوْنَ فِی الْعِلْمِ مِنْهُمْ وَ الْمُؤْمِنُوْنَ یُؤْمِنُوْنَ بِمَاۤ اُنْزِلَ اِلَیْكَ وَ مَاۤ اُنْزِلَ مِنْ قَبْلِكَ وَ الْمُقِیْمِیْنَ الصَّلٰوةَ وَ الْمُؤْتُوْنَ الزَّكٰوةَ وَ الْمُؤْمِنُوْنَ بِاللّٰهِ وَ الْیَوْمِ الْاٰخِرِؕ-اُولٰٓىٕكَ سَنُؤْتِیْهِمْ اَجْرًا عَظِیْمًا۠(۱۶۲)
But to the learned among them, and the believers who affirm what has been revealed to you and was revealed to those before you, and to those who fulfil their devotional obligations, who pay the zakat and believe in God and the Last Day, We shall give a great reward.
But those among them who are well-grounded in knowledge, and the believers, believe in what hath been revealed to thee and what was revealed before thee: And (especially) those who establish regular prayer and practise regular charity and believe in Allah and in the Last Day: To them shall We soon give a great reward.
اِنَّاۤ اَوْحَیْنَاۤ اِلَیْكَ كَمَاۤ اَوْحَیْنَاۤ اِلٰى نُوْحٍ وَّ النَّبِیّٖنَ مِنْۢ بَعْدِهٖۚ-وَ اَوْحَیْنَاۤ اِلٰۤى اِبْرٰهِیْمَ وَ اِسْمٰعِیْلَ وَ اِسْحٰقَ وَ یَعْقُوْبَ وَ الْاَسْبَاطِ وَ عِیْسٰى وَ اَیُّوْبَ وَ یُوْنُسَ وَ هٰرُوْنَ وَ سُلَیْمٰنَۚ-وَ اٰتَیْنَا دَاوٗدَ زَبُوْرًاۚ(۱۶۳)
We have sent revelations to you as We sent revelations to Noah and the prophets (who came) after him; and We sent revelations to Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob, and their offspring, and to Jesus and Job, and to Jonah and Aaron and Solomon, and to David We gave the Book of Psalms,
We have sent thee inspiration, as We sent it to Noah and the Messengers after him: we sent inspiration to Abraham, Isma'il, Isaac, Jacob and the Tribes, to Jesus, Job, Jonah, Aaron, and solomon, and to David We gave the Psalms.
وَ رُسُلًا قَدْ قَصَصْنٰهُمْ عَلَیْكَ مِنْ قَبْلُ وَ رُسُلًا لَّمْ نَقْصُصْهُمْ عَلَیْكَؕ-وَ كَلَّمَ اللّٰهُ مُوْسٰى تَكْلِیْمًاۚ(۱۶۴)
And to many an apostle We have mentioned before, and to many other apostles We have not mentioned to you; and to Moses God spoke directly.
Of some messengers We have already told thee the story; of others We have not;- and to Moses Allah spoke direct;-
رُسُلًا مُّبَشِّرِیْنَ وَ مُنْذِرِیْنَ لِئَلَّا یَكُوْنَ لِلنَّاسِ عَلَى اللّٰهِ حُجَّةٌۢ بَعْدَ الرُّسُلِؕ-وَ كَانَ اللّٰهُ عَزِیْزًا حَكِیْمًا(۱۶۵)
All these apostles of good news and admonition were sent so that after the apostles men may have no argument against God. God is all-powerful and all-wise.
Messengers who gave good news as well as warning, that mankind, after (the coming) of the messengers, should have no plea against Allah: For Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise.
لٰكِنِ اللّٰهُ یَشْهَدُ بِمَاۤ اَنْزَلَ اِلَیْكَ اَنْزَلَهٗ بِعِلْمِهٖۚ-وَ الْمَلٰٓىٕكَةُ یَشْهَدُوْنَؕ-وَ كَفٰى بِاللّٰهِ شَهِیْدًاؕ(۱۶۶)
God is Himself witness to what has been revealed to you, and revealed with His knowledge, and the angels are witness; and God is sufficient as witness.
But Allah beareth witness that what He hath sent unto thee He hath sent from His (own) knowledge, and the angels bear witness: But enough is Allah for a witness.
اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا وَ صَدُّوْا عَنْ سَبِیْلِ اللّٰهِ قَدْ ضَلُّوْا ضَلٰلًۢا بَعِیْدًا(۱۶۷)
Those who denied and turned away from the path of God, have wandered far astray.
Those who reject Faith and keep off (men) from the way of Allah, have verily strayed far, far away from the Path.
اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا وَ ظَلَمُوْا لَمْ یَكُنِ اللّٰهُ لِیَغْفِرَ لَهُمْ وَ لَا لِیَهْدِیَهُمْ طَرِیْقًاۙ(۱۶۸)
Those who deny and transgress will not be forgiven by God, nor be shown the way
Those who reject Faith and do wrong,- Allah will not forgive them nor guide them to any way-
اِلَّا طَرِیْقَ جَهَنَّمَ خٰلِدِیْنَ فِیْهَاۤ اَبَدًاؕ-وَ كَانَ ذٰلِكَ عَلَى اللّٰهِ یَسِیْرًا(۱۶۹)
Except to Hell, where they will abide for ever; and this is how (the law of God) works inevitably.
Except the way of Hell, to dwell therein for ever. And this to Allah is easy.
یٰۤاَیُّهَا النَّاسُ قَدْ جَآءَكُمُ الرَّسُوْلُ بِالْحَقِّ مِنْ رَّبِّكُمْ فَاٰمِنُوْا خَیْرًا لَّكُمْؕ-وَ اِنْ تَكْفُرُوْا فَاِنَّ لِلّٰهِ مَا فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَ الْاَرْضِؕ-وَ كَانَ اللّٰهُ عَلِیْمًا حَكِیْمًا(۱۷۰)
O men, the Apostle has now come to you, bringing the truth from your Lord; so believe for your own good; but if you deny (then remember) that all that is in the heavens and the earth belongs to God; and God is all-knowing and all-wise.
O Mankind! The Messenger hath come to you in truth from Allah: believe in him: It is best for you. But if ye reject Faith, to Allah belong all things in the heavens and on earth: And Allah is All-knowing, All-wise.
یٰۤاَهْلَ الْكِتٰبِ لَا تَغْلُوْا فِیْ دِیْنِكُمْ وَ لَا تَقُوْلُوْا عَلَى اللّٰهِ اِلَّا الْحَقَّؕ-اِنَّمَا الْمَسِیْحُ عِیْسَى ابْنُ مَرْیَمَ رَسُوْلُ اللّٰهِ وَ كَلِمَتُهٗۚ-اَلْقٰىهَاۤ اِلٰى مَرْیَمَ وَ رُوْحٌ مِّنْهُ٘-فَاٰمِنُوْا بِاللّٰهِ وَ رُسُلِهٖ ۚ۫-وَ لَا تَقُوْلُوْا ثَلٰثَةٌؕ-اِنْتَهُوْا خَیْرًا لَّكُمْؕ-اِنَّمَا اللّٰهُ اِلٰهٌ وَّاحِدٌؕ-سُبْحٰنَهٗۤ اَنْ یَّكُوْنَ لَهٗ وَلَدٌۘ-لَهٗ مَا فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَ مَا فِی الْاَرْضِؕ-وَ كَفٰى بِاللّٰهِ وَكِیْلًا۠(۱۷۱)
O people of the Book, do not be fanatical in your faith, and say nothing but the truth about God. The Messiah who is Jesus, son of Mary, was only an apostle of God, and a command of His which He sent to Mary, as a mercy from Him. So believe in God and His apostles, and do not call Him ´Trinity´. Abstain from this for your own good; for God is only one God, and far from His glory is it to beget a son. All that is in the heavens and the earth belongs to Him; and sufficient is God for all help.
O People of the Book! Commit no excesses in your religion: Nor say of Allah aught but the truth. Christ Jesus the son of Mary was (no more than) a messenger of Allah, and His Word, which He bestowed on Mary, and a spirit proceeding from Him: so believe in Allah and His messengers. Say not "Trinity": desist: it will be better for you: for Allah is one Allah: Glory be to Him: (far exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belong all things in the heavens and on earth. And enough is Allah as a Disposer of affairs.
لَنْ یَّسْتَنْكِفَ الْمَسِیْحُ اَنْ یَّكُوْنَ عَبْدًا لِّلّٰهِ وَ لَا الْمَلٰٓىٕكَةُ الْمُقَرَّبُوْنَؕ-وَ مَنْ یَّسْتَنْكِفْ عَنْ عِبَادَتِهٖ وَ یَسْتَكْبِرْ فَسَیَحْشُرُهُمْ اِلَیْهِ جَمِیْعًا(۱۷۲)
The Christ will never disdain to be a votary of God, nor will the angels close to Him. And those who disdain to serve Him and are proud (should remember) that they will all go back to Him in the end.
Christ disdaineth nor to serve and worship Allah, nor do the angels, those nearest (to Allah): those who disdain His worship and are arrogant,-He will gather them all together unto Himself to (answer).
فَاَمَّا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَ عَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ فَیُوَفِّیْهِمْ اُجُوْرَهُمْ وَ یَزِیْدُهُمْ مِّنْ فَضْلِهٖۚ-وَ اَمَّا الَّذِیْنَ اسْتَنْكَفُوْا وَ اسْتَكْبَرُوْا فَیُعَذِّبُهُمْ عَذَابًا اَلِیْمًا ﳔ وَّ لَا یَجِدُوْنَ لَهُمْ مِّنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ وَلِیًّا وَّ لَا نَصِیْرًا(۱۷۳)
Then those who believed and earned good deeds will be given their recompense in full, and even more out of grace. But those who disdain and who boast will receive a painful punishment. They will find none except God to help them or save them.
But to those who believe and do deeds of righteousness, He will give their (due) rewards,- and more, out of His bounty: But those who are disdainful and arrogant, He will punish with a grievous penalty; Nor will they find, besides Allah, any to protect or help them.
یٰۤاَیُّهَا النَّاسُ قَدْ جَآءَكُمْ بُرْهَانٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّكُمْ وَ اَنْزَلْنَاۤ اِلَیْكُمْ نُوْرًا مُّبِیْنًا(۱۷۴)
O men, you have received infallible proof from your Lord, and We have sent down a beacon light to you.
O mankind! verily there hath come to you a convincing proof from your Lord: For We have sent unto you a light (that is) manifest.
فَاَمَّا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا بِاللّٰهِ وَ اعْتَصَمُوْا بِهٖ فَسَیُدْخِلُهُمْ فِیْ رَحْمَةٍ مِّنْهُ وَ فَضْلٍۙ-وَّ یَهْدِیْهِمْ اِلَیْهِ صِرَاطًا مُّسْتَقِیْمًاؕ(۱۷۵)
So those who believe in God and hold fast to Him shall indeed be received into His mercy and His grace, and be guided to Him the straight path.
Then those who believe in Allah, and hold fast to Him,- soon will He admit them to mercy and grace from Himself, and guide them to Himself by a straight way.
یَسْتَفْتُوْنَكَؕ-قُلِ اللّٰهُ یُفْتِیْكُمْ فِی الْكَلٰلَةِؕ-اِنِ امْرُؤٌا هَلَكَ لَیْسَ لَهٗ وَلَدٌ وَّ لَهٗۤ اُخْتٌ فَلَهَا نِصْفُ مَا تَرَكَۚ-وَ هُوَ یَرِثُهَاۤ اِنْ لَّمْ یَكُنْ لَّهَا وَلَدٌؕ-فَاِنْ كَانَتَا اثْنَتَیْنِ فَلَهُمَا الثُّلُثٰنِ مِمَّا تَرَكَؕ-وَ اِنْ كَانُوْۤا اِخْوَةً رِّجَالًا وَّ نِسَآءً فَلِلذَّكَرِ مِثْلُ حَظِّ الْاُنْثَیَیْنِؕ-یُبَیِّنُ اللّٰهُ لَكُمْ اَنْ تَضِلُّوْاؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ بِكُلِّ شَیْءٍ عَلِیْمٌ۠(۱۷۶)
They ask you for judgement about ´Kalalah´ (a man who dies childless). Say: "God has given a decision in the matter of inheritance." If a man dies and leaves no child behind but have a sister, she will get a half of what he owned, as he would have done the whole of what she possessed if she had died a childless person. In ease he has two sisters then they will get two-thirds of the heritage. But if he has both brothers and sisters, the male will inherit a share equal to that of two females. God makes this manifest to you lest you wander astray, for God has knowledge of everything.
They ask thee for a legal decision. Say: Allah directs (thus) about those who leave no descendants or ascendants as heirs. If it is a man that dies, leaving a sister but no child, she shall have half the inheritance: If (such a deceased was) a woman, who left no child, Her brother takes her inheritance: If there are two sisters, they shall have two-thirds of the inheritance (between them): if there are brothers and sisters, (they share), the male having twice the share of the female. Thus doth Allah make clear to you (His law), lest ye err. And Allah hath knowledge of all things.
