And you (might) have seen
(who are) [the] wrongdoers.
in spite of his love (for it)
freeing the necks (slaves)
and those who are patient
(as) Disposer of Affairs.
their direction of prayer
and the western (parts) of it,
Thou wouldst have seen the sun, when it rose, declining to the right from their Cave, and when it set, turning away from them to the left, while they lay in the open space in the midst of the Cave. Such are among the Signs of Allah: He whom Allah, guides is rightly guided; but he whom Allah leaves to stray,- for him wilt thou find no protector to lead him to the Right Way.
Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The Parable of His Light is as if there were a Niche and within it a Lamp: the Lamp enclosed in Glass: the glass as it were a brilliant star: Lit from a blessed Tree, an Olive, neither of the east nor of the west, whose oil is well-nigh luminous, though fire scarce touched it: Light upon Light! Allah doth guide whom He will to His Light: Allah doth set forth Parables for men: and Allah doth know all things.
Then Allah sent a raven, who scratched the ground, to show him how to hide the shame of his brother. "Woe is me!" said he; "Was I not even able to be as this raven, and to hide the shame of my brother?" then he became full of regrets-
Therefore be patient with what they say, and celebrate (constantly) the praises of thy Lord, before the rising of the sun, and before its setting; yea, celebrate them for part of the hours of the night, and at the sides of the day: that thou mayest have (spiritual) joy.
Thou wast not on the Western side when We decreed the Commission to Moses, nor wast thou a witness (of those events).
Then Allah sent a raven, who scratched the ground, to show him how to hide the shame of his brother. "Woe is me!" said he; "Was I not even able to be as this raven, and to hide the shame of my brother?" then he became full of regrets-
Bear, then, with patience, all that they say, and celebrate the praises of thy Lord, before the rising of the sun and before (its) setting.
(He is) Lord of the two Easts and Lord of the two Wests:
Hast thou not Turned thy vision to one who disputed with Abraham About his Lord, because Allah had granted him power? Abraham said: "My Lord is He Who Giveth life and death." He said: "I give life and death". Said Abraham: "But it is Allah that causeth the sun to rise from the east: Do thou then cause him to rise from the West." Thus was he confounded who (in arrogance) rejected faith. Nor doth Allah Give guidance to a people unjust.
Until, when he reached the setting of the sun, he found it set in a spring of murky water: Near it he found a People: We said: "O Zul-qarnain! (thou hast authority,) either to punish them, or to treat them with kindness."

Seest thou not that Allah sends down rain from the sky? With it We then bring out produce of various colours. And in the mountains are tracts white and red, of various shades of colour, and black intense in hue.
Now I do call to witness the Lord of all points in the East and the West that We can certainly-
It is not righteousness that ye turn your faces Towards east or West; but it is righteousness- to believe in Allah and the Last Day, and the Angels, and the Book, and the Messengers; to spend of your substance, out of love for Him, for your kin, for orphans, for the needy, for the wayfarer, for those who ask, and for the ransom of slaves; to be steadfast in prayer, and practice regular charity; to fulfil the contracts which ye have made; and to be firm and patient, in pain (or suffering) and adversity, and throughout all periods of panic. Such are the people of truth, the Allah-fearing.
(Moses) said: "Lord of the East and the West, and all between! if ye only had sense!"
(He is) Lord of the East and the West: there is no god but He: take Him therefore for (thy) Disposer of Affairs.
To Allah belong the east and the West: Whithersoever ye turn, there is the presence of Allah. For Allah is all-Pervading, all-Knowing.
The fools among the people will say: "What hath turned them from the Qibla to which they were used?" Say: To Allah belong both east and West: He guideth whom He will to a Way that is straight.
And We made a people, considered weak (and of no account), inheritors of lands in both east and west, - lands whereon We sent down Our blessings. The fair promise of thy Lord was fulfilled for the Children of Israel, because they had patience and constancy, and We levelled to the ground the great works and fine buildings which Pharaoh and his people erected (with such pride).
你看太阳出来的时候,从他们的山洞的右边斜射过去;太阳落山的时候,从他的左边斜射过去,而他们就在洞的空处。这是真主的一种迹象,真主引导谁,谁遵循正道;真主使谁迷误,你绝不能为谁发现任何朋友作为引导者。
真主是天地的光明,他的光明象一座灯台,那座灯台上有一盏明灯,那盏明灯在一个玻璃罩里,那个玻璃罩仿佛一颗灿烂的明星,用吉祥的橄榄油燃着那盏明灯;它不是东方的,也不是西方的,它的油,即使没有点火也几乎发光--光上加光--真主引导他所意欲者走向他的光明。真主为众人设了许多比喻, 真主是全知万事的。
真主使一只乌鸦来掘地,以便指示他怎样掩埋他弟弟的尸体。他说:“伤哉!我怎不能像这只乌鸦那样,把我弟弟的尸体掩埋起来呢?”于是,他变成悔恨的人。
你应当忍受他们所说的(谰言),你应当在太阳出落之前赞颂你的主,你应当在夜间和白昼赞颂他,以便你喜悦。
当我以我的命令启示穆萨的时候,你没有在西山边,也没有亲眼看见。
真主使一只乌鸦来掘地,以便指示他怎样掩埋他弟弟的尸体。他说:“伤哉!我怎不能像这只乌鸦那样,把我弟弟的尸体掩埋起来呢?”于是,他变成悔恨的人。
故你应当忍受他们所说的谰言。在日出和日落之前,你应当赞颂你的主;
他是两个东方的主,也是两个西方的主。
难道你没有看见那个人吗?真主把国权赏赐他,故他与易卜拉欣争论他的主。当时,易卜拉欣说:“我的主能使死者生,能使生者死。”他说:“我也能使死者生,能使生者死。”易卜拉欣说:“真主的确能使太阳从东方升起,你使它从西方升起吧。”那个不信道的人,就哑口无言了。真主不引导不义的民众。
直到他到达了日落之处,他觉得太阳是落在黑泥渊中,他在那黑泥渊旁发现一种人。我说:“左勒盖尔奈英啊!你或惩治他们,或善待他们。”
直到他到达了日落之处,他觉得太阳是落在黑泥渊中,他在那黑泥渊旁发现一种人。我说:“左勒盖尔奈英啊!你或惩治他们,或善待他们。”
直到他到达了日落之处,他觉得太阳是落在黑泥渊中,他在那黑泥渊旁发现一种人。我说:“左勒盖尔奈英啊!你或惩治他们,或善待他们。”
难道你还不知道吗?真主从云中降下雨水,然后借雨水而生产各种果实。山上有白的、红的、各色的条纹,和漆黑的岩石。
不然,我以一切东方和西方的主盟誓,我确是全能的,
你们把自己的脸转向东方和西方,都不是正义。正义是信真主,信末日,信天神,信天经,信先知,并将所爱的财产施济亲戚、孤儿、贫民、旅客、乞丐和赎取奴隶,并谨守拜功,完纳天课,履行约言,忍受穷困、患难和战争。这等人,确是忠贞的;这等人,确是敬畏的。
他说:“(他是)东方和西方,以及介乎东西方之间的主,如果你们能了解。”
他是东方和西方的主,除他之外,绝无应受崇拜的,故你应当以他为监护者。
东方和西方都是真主的;无论你们转向哪方,那里就是真主的方向。真主确是宽大的,确是全知的。
一般愚人将说:“他们为甚麽要背弃他们原来所对的朝向呢?”你说:“东方和西方,都是真主的,他把他所意欲的人引上正路。”
我使被欺负的民众,继承了我曾降福其中的土地的四境。以色列的后裔,能忍受虐待,故你的主对他们的最佳诺言已完全实现了;我毁灭了法老和他的百姓所构造的,和他们所建筑的。
