That was a people that hath passed away. They shall reap the fruit of what they did, and ye of what ye do! Of their merits there is no question in your case!

That was a people that hath passed away. They shall reap the fruit of what they did, and ye of what ye do! Of their merits there is no question in your case:

Let there arise out of you a band of people inviting to all that is good, enjoining what is right, and forbidding what is wrong: They are the ones to attain felicity.

Not all of them are alike: Of the People of the Book are a portion that stand (For the right): They rehearse the Signs of Allah all night long, and they prostrate themselves in adoration.

If only they had stood fast by the Law, the Gospel, and all the revelation that was sent to them from their Lord, they would have enjoyed happiness from every side. There is from among them a party on the right course: but many of them follow a course that is evil.

He will say: "Enter ye in the company of the peoples who passed away before you - men and jinns, - into the Fire." Every time a new people enters, it curses its sister-people (that went before), until they follow each other, all into the Fire. Saith the last about the first: "Our Lord! it is these that misled us: so give them a double penalty in the Fire." He will say: "Doubled for all" : but this ye do not understand.

Of the people of Moses there is a section who guide and do justice in the light of truth.

When some of them said: "Why do ye preach to a people whom Allah will destroy or visit with a terrible punishment?"- said the preachers:" To discharge our duty to your Lord, and perchance they may fear Him."

Of those We have created are people who direct (others) with truth. And dispense justice therewith.

And be not like a woman who breaks into untwisted strands the yarn which she has spun, after it has become strong. Nor take your oaths to practise deception between yourselves, lest one party should be more numerous than another: for Allah will test you by this; and on the Day of Judgment He will certainly make clear to you (the truth of) that wherein ye disagree.

那是已逝去的民族，他们得享受他们的行为的报酬，你们得享受你们的行为的报酬，你们对他们的行为不负责任。

那是已逝去的民族，他们得享受他们的行为的报酬，你们也得享受你们的行为的报酬，你们对他们的行为不负责任。

你们中当有一部分人，导人于至善，并劝善戒恶；这等人，确是成功的。

他们不是一律的。信奉天经的人中有一派正人，在夜间诵读真主的经典，且为真主而叩头。

假若他们遵守《讨拉特》和《引支勒》和他们的主所降示他们的其他经典，那末，他们必得仰食头上的，俯食脚下的。他们中有一伙中和的人；他们中有许多行为恶劣的人。

真主将要说：“你们同精灵和人类中以前逝去的各民族一起进入火狱吧。”每当一个民族进火狱去，总要咒骂她的姐妹民族，直到他们统统到齐了。他们中后进的论及先进的说：“我们的主啊！这等人曾使我们迷误，求你使他们受加倍的火刑。”主说：“-个人都受加倍的火刑，但你们不知道。”

穆萨的宗族中，有一伙人，本著真理引导他人，因真理而主持公道。

当时，他们中有一伙人说：“真主要加以毁灭，或加以严惩的民众，你们何必劝戒他们呢？”他们说：“因为求得你们主的原谅，而且希望他们能敬畏。”

我所创造的人，其中有一个民族，他们本著真理引导他人，主持公道。

你们不要像那个妇人，她把纺织得很结实的线又分拆成若干缕；你们以盟誓为互相欺诈的手段，因为这一族比那一族还要富庶。真主只以此事考验你们。复活日，他必为你们阐明你们所争论的是非。
