Quite a number of the People of the Book wish they could Turn you (people) back to infidelity after ye have believed, from selfish envy, after the Truth hath become Manifest unto them: But forgive and overlook, Till Allah accomplish His purpose; for Allah Hath power over all things.

And the likeness of those who spend their substance, seeking to please Allah and to strengthen their souls, is as a garden, high and fertile: heavy rain falls on it but makes it yield a double increase of harvest, and if it receives not Heavy rain, light moisture sufficeth it. Allah seeth well whatever ye do.

After (the excitement) of the distress, He sent down calm on a band of you overcome with slumber, while another band was stirred to anxiety by their own feelings, Moved by wrong suspicions of Allah-suspicions due to ignorance. They said: "What affair is this of ours?" Say thou: "Indeed, this affair is wholly Allah's." They hide in their minds what they dare not reveal to thee. They say (to themselves): "If we had had anything to do with this affair, We should not have been in the slaughter here." Say: "Even if you had remained in your homes, those for whom death was decreed would certainly have gone forth to the place of their death"; but (all this was) that Allah might test what is in your breasts and purge what is in your hearts. For Allah knoweth well the secrets of your hearts.

Allah did confer a great favour on the believers when He sent among them a messenger from among themselves, rehearsing unto them the Signs of Allah, sanctifying them, and instructing them in Scripture and Wisdom, while, before that, they had been in manifest error.

Those men,-Allah knows what is in their hearts; so keep clear of them, but admonish them, and speak to them a word to reach their very souls.

But no, by the Lord, they can have no (real) Faith, until they make thee judge in all disputes between them, and find in their souls no resistance against Thy decisions, but accept them with the fullest conviction.

When angels take the souls of those who die in sin against their souls, they say: "In what (plight) Were ye?" They reply: "Weak and oppressed Were we in the earth." They say: "Was not the earth of Allah spacious enough for you to move yourselves away (From evil)?" Such men will find their abode in Hell,- What an evil refuge! -

Those in whose hearts is a disease - thou seest how eagerly they run about amongst them, saying: "We do fear lest a change of fortune bring us disaster." Ah! perhaps Allah will give (thee) victory, or a decision according to His will. Then will they repent of the thoughts which they secretly harboured in their hearts.

Behold! how they lie against their own souls! But the (lie) which they invented will leave them in the lurch.

"O ye assembly of Jinns and men! came there not unto you messengers from amongst you, setting forth unto you My signs, and warning you of the meeting of this Day of yours?" They will say: "We bear witness against ourselves." It was the life of this world that deceived them. So against themselves will they bear witness that they rejected Faith.

Who is more unjust than one who invents a lie against Allah or rejects His Signs? For such, their portion appointed must reach them from the Book (of decrees): until, when our messengers (of death) arrive and take their souls, they say: "Where are the things that ye used to invoke besides Allah?" They will reply, "They have left us in the lurch," And they will bear witness against themselves, that they had rejected Allah.

When thy Lord drew forth from the Children of Adam - from their loins - their descendants, and made them testify concerning themselves, (saying): "Am I not your Lord (who cherishes and sustains you)?"- They said: "Yea! We do testify!" (This), lest ye should say on the Day of Judgment: "Of this we were never mindful":

It is not for such as join gods with Allah, to visit or maintain the mosques of Allah while they witness against their own souls to infidelity. The works of such bear no fruit: In Fire shall they dwell.

"I tell you not that with me are the treasures of Allah, nor do I know what is hidden, nor claim I to be an angel. Nor yet do I say, of those whom your eyes do despise that Allah will not grant them (all) that is good: Allah knoweth best what is in their souls: I should, if I did, indeed be a wrong-doer."

"(Namely) those whose lives the angels take in a state of wrong-doing to their own souls." Then would they offer submission (with the pretence), "We did no evil (knowingly)." (The angels will reply), "Nay, but verily Allah knoweth all that ye did;

One day We shall raise from all Peoples a witness against them, from amongst themselves: and We shall bring thee as a witness against these (thy people): and We have sent down to thee the Book explaining all things, a Guide, a Mercy, and Glad Tidings to Muslims.

I called them not to witness the creation of the heavens and the earth, nor (even) their own creation: nor is it for helpers such as Me to take as lead (men) astray!

Or have they gods that can guard them from Us? They have no power to aid themselves, nor can they be defended from Us.

So they turned to themselves and said, "Surely ye are the ones in the wrong!"

Such as fear not the meeting with Us (for Judgment) say: "Why are not the angels sent down to us, or (why) do we not see our Lord?" Indeed they have an arrogant conceit of themselves, and mighty is the insolence of their impiety!

Do they not reflect in their own minds? Not but for just ends and for a term appointed, did Allah create the heavens and the earth, and all between them: yet are there truly many among men who deny the meeting with their Lord (at the Resurrection)!

The Prophet is closer to the Believers than their own selves, and his wives are their mothers. Blood-relations among each other have closer personal ties, in the Decree of Allah. Than (the Brotherhood of) Believers and Muhajirs: nevertheless do ye what is just to your closest friends: such is the writing in the Decree (of Allah).

Glory to Allah, Who created in pairs all things that the earth produces, as well as their own (human) kind and (other) things of which they have no knowledge.

Say: "O my Servants who have transgressed against their souls! Despair not of the Mercy of Allah: for Allah forgives all sins: for He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

Soon will We show them our Signs in the (furthest) regions (of the earth), and in their own souls, until it becomes manifest to them that this is the Truth. Is it not enough that thy Lord doth witness all things?

Turnest thou not thy sight towards those who were forbidden secret counsels yet revert to that which they were forbidden (to do)? And they hold secret counsels among themselves for iniquity and hostility, and disobedience to the Messenger. And when they come to thee, they salute thee, not as Allah salutes thee, (but in crooked ways): And they say to themselves, "Why does not Allah punish us for our words?" Enough for them is Hell: In it will they burn, and evil is that destination!

But those who before them, had homes (in Medina) and had adopted the Faith,- show their affection to such as came to them for refuge, and entertain no desire in their hearts for things given to the (latter), but give them preference over themselves, even though poverty was their (own lot). And those saved from the covetousness of their own souls,- they are the ones that achieve prosperity.

信奉天经的人当中，有许多人惟愿使你们在继信道之後变成不信道者，这是因为他们在真理既明之後嫉视你们的缘故。但你们应当恕饶他们，原谅他们，直到真主发布命令。真主对於万事确是全能的。

施舍财产，以求真主的喜悦并确定自身信仰的人，譬如高原上的园圃，它得大雨，便加倍结实。如果不得大雨，小雨也足以滋润。真主是明察你们的行为的。

在忧患之后，他又降安宁给你们，使你们中一部分人瞌睡；另一部分人则为自身而焦虑，他们象蒙昧时代的人一样，对真主妄加猜测，他们说：“我们有一点胜利的希望吗?”你说：“一切事情，的确都是真主所主持的。”他们的心里怀着不敢对你表示的恶意；他们说：“假若我们有一点胜利的希望，我们的同胞不致阵亡在这里。”你说：“假若你们坐在家里，那么命中注定要阵亡的人，必定外出，走到他们阵亡的地方；（真主这样做），以便他试验你们的心事，锻炼你们心中的信仰。真主是全知心事的。”

真主确已施恩于信士们，因为他曾在他们中派遣了一个同族的使者，对他们宣读他的迹象，并且熏陶他们，教授他们天经和智慧，以前，他们确是在明显的迷误中的。

这等人，真主是知道他们的心事的，故你当宽恕他们，当劝戒他们，当对他们说惊心动魄的话。

指你的主发誓，他们不信道，直到他们请你判决他们之间的纷争，而他们的心里对于你的判决毫无芥蒂，并且他们完全顺服。

在自欺的情状之下众天神使其死亡的人，众天神必定问他们说：“生前你们是在什么情状之下呢！”他们说：“我们在地方上被人欺负的。”他们问：”难道真主的大地不是宽阔的、能容你们迁移的吗？”这等人的归宿是火狱，那是一个恶劣的归宿。

你将看见有心病的人，将争先地去与他们亲善，还要托辞说：“我们恐怕遭遇厄运。”真主也许降下胜利，或发出命令，而他们因为自己心中隐藏的阴谋，而变成悔恨的人。

你看看他们怎样抵赖。他们以前伪造的（伙伴）已回避他们了。

”精灵和人类的群众啊！难道你们同族中的使者没有来对你们叙述我的迹象，并警告你们将有今日的会见吗？”他们说：“我们已招认了。”尘世的生活欺骗了他们，他将招认自己原是不信道的。

假借真主的名义而造谣，或否认其迹象者，有谁比他们还不义呢？这等人将遭遇天经中为他们预定的命运，直到我的众使者来使他们死亡的时候，将对他们说：“你们从前舍真主而祈祷的（偶像），现在哪里呢？”他们将说：“他们已回避我们了。”他们将要承认自己原是不信道者。

当时，你的主从阿丹的子孙的背脊中取出他们的后裔，并使他们招认。主说：“难道我不是你们的主吗？”他们说：“怎么不是呢？我们已作证了。”（我所以要使他们招认），是因为不愿你们在复活日说，”我们生前确实忽视了这件事。”

以物配主者，在供认迷信情况下，不宜管理真主的清真寺，这等人的善功已无效果，他们将来要永居火狱之中。

我不对你们说我有真主的宝藏，也不说我知道幽玄，也不说我确是一个天神，也不说你们所藐视的人，真主绝不赏赐他们任何福利--真主是知道他们的事情的--否则，我必是一个不义的人。”

他们在自亏的情况下，天神们使他们死亡。他们表示屈服，说：“我们没有犯过什么罪恶。”不然！真主确是全知你们的行为的。

我要在每个民族中，推举他们族中的一个见证，来反证他们，在那日，我要推举你来反证这等人。我曾降示这部经典，阐明万事，并作归顺者的向导、恩惠和喜讯。

我没有使他们眼见天地的创造，也没有使他们眼见其自身的创造，我没有把使人迷误者当做助手。

除我之外，难道他们有许多神明保护他们吗？他们所崇拜的神明，不能自卫，他们对我（的刑罚）也不蒙庇护。

他们就互相批评。随后说：“你们（崇拜偶像）确是不义的。”

不希望与我相会者曾说：“怎么不使众天神降临我们，或者得见我们的主呢？”他们确已妄自尊大，确已大逆不道。

难道他们没有思维吗？真主创造天地万物，只依真理和定期，有许多人的确不信将与他们的主相会。

先知对信士的权利，重于他们自身的权利，他的众妻，是他们的母亲。血亲与血亲相互间的权利，依真主的经典，是重于信士和迁士的权利的，除非你们对自己的亲友行善。这是记录在天经里的。

赞颂真主，超绝万物！他创造一切配偶，地面所生产的，他们自己，以及他们所不知道的，都有配偶。

（你说：）“我的过分自害的众仆呀！你们对真主的恩惠不要绝望，真主必定赦宥一切罪过，他确是至赦的，确是至慈的。

我将在四方和在他们自身中，把我的许多迹象昭示他们，直到他们明白《古兰经》确是真理。难道你的主能见证万物还不够吗？

难道你没有看见不许密谈而违禁密谈的人吗？他们密谈的，是关於罪恶、侵害和违抗使者的事。他们来见你的时侯，用真主所未用的祝辞祝贺你，他们自言自语地说：“真主何不因我们所说的话而惩罚我们呢！”火狱是能使他们满足的！他们将入其中，那归宿真恶劣！

在他们之前，安居故乡而且确信正道的人们，他们喜爱迁居来的教胞们，他们对于那些教胞所获的赏赐，不怀怨恨，他们虽有急需，也愿把自己所有的让给那些教胞。能戒除自身的贪吝者，才是成功的。
