Who can be more wicked than one who inventeth a lie against Allah, or saith, "I have received inspiration," when he hath received none, or (again) who saith, "I can reveal the like of what Allah hath revealed"? If thou couldst but see how the wicked (do fare) in the flood of confusion at death! - the angels stretch forth their hands, (saying),"Yield up your souls: this day shall ye receive your reward,- a penalty of shame, for that ye used to tell lies against Allah, and scornfully to reject of His signs!"

Follow what thou art taught by inspiration from thy Lord: there is no god but He: and turn aside from those who join gods with Allah.

Say: "I find not in the message received by me by inspiration any (meat) forbidden to be eaten by one who wishes to eat it, unless it be dead meat, or blood poured forth, or the flesh of swine,- for it is an abomination - or, what is impious, (meat) on which a name has been invoked, other than Allah's". But (even so), if a person is forced by necessity, without wilful disobedience, nor transgressing due limits,- thy Lord is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.

And recite (and teach) what has been revealed to thee of the Book of thy Lord: none can change His Words, and none wilt thou find as a refuge other than Him.

"'Verily it has been revealed to us that the Penalty (awaits) those who reject and turn away.'"

Recite what is sent of the Book by inspiration to thee, and establish regular Prayer: for Prayer restrains from shameful and unjust deeds; and remembrance of Allah is the greatest (thing in life) without doubt. And Allah knows the (deeds) that ye do.

But it has already been revealed to thee,- as it was to those before thee,- "If thou wert to join (gods with Allah), truly fruitless will be thy work (in life), and thou wilt surely be in the ranks of those who lose (all spiritual good)".

So hold thou fast to the Revelation sent down to thee; verily thou art on a Straight Way.

Say: It has been revealed to me that a company of Jinns listened (to the Qur'an). They said, 'We have really heard a wonderful Recital!

假借真主的名义而造谣的，自称奉到启示，其实，没有奉到任何启示的人，或妄言要像真主那样降示天经的人，这等人谁比他们还不义呢？不义的人正在临死的苦痛中，众天神伸著手说：“你们拿出你们的灵魂吧！今天你们要受辱刑的报酬，因为你们假借真主的名义而造谣，并藐视他的迹象。”那时，假若你看见他们的情状，……。

你当遵守你的主所启示你的经典；除他外，绝无应受崇拜的；你当避开以物配主的人。

你说：“在我所受的启示里，我不能发现任何人所不得吃的食物；除非是自死物，或流出的血液，或猪肉--因为它们确是不洁的--或是诵非真主之名而宰的犯罪物。”凡为势所迫，非出自愿，且不过分的人，（虽吃禁物，毫无罪过），因为你的主确是至赦的，确是至慈的。

你应当宣读你的主所启示你的经典，他的言辞，决不是任何人所能变更的。你绝不能发现一个隐避所。

我们确已奉到启示说：否认而且背弃者，将受刑罚。'”

你应当宣读启示你的经典，你当谨守拜功，拜功的确能防止丑事和罪恶，记念真主确是一件更大的事。真主知道你们的做为。

你和你以前的人，都奉到启示说：“如果你以物配主，则你的善功，必定无效，而你必定成为亏折者。

所以你应当坚持你所受的启示，你确是在正道上的。

你说：“我曾奉到启示：有几个精灵已经静听，并且说：‘我们确已听见奇异的《古兰经》，
