And they say: "The Fire shall not touch us but for a few numbered days:" Say: "Have ye taken a promise from Allah, for He never breaks His promise? or is it that ye say of Allah what ye do not know?"

(Fasting) for a fixed number of days; but if any of you is ill, or on a journey, the prescribed number (Should be made up) from days later. For those who can do it (With hardship), is a ransom, the feeding of one that is indigent. But he that will give more, of his own free will,- it is better for him. And it is better for you that ye fast, if ye only knew.

This because they say: "The Fire shall not touch us but for a few numbered days": For their forgeries deceive them as to their own religion.

他们说：“火绝不接触我们，除非若干有数的日子。”你说：“真主是绝不爽约的，你们曾与真主缔约呢？还是假借真主的名义而说出自己所不知道的事呢？”

故你们当斋戒有数的若干日。你们中有害病或旅行的人，当依所缺的日数补斋。难以斋戒者，当纳罚赎，即以一餐饭，施给一个贫民。自愿行善者，必获更多的善报。斋戒对於你们是更好的，如果你们知道。

这是因为他们说：“火绝不接触我们，除非若干有数的日子。”他们所捏造的，在他们的宗教方面，已欺骗了他们。
