But the transgressors changed the word from that which had been given them; so We sent on the transgressors a plague from heaven, for that they infringed (Our command) repeatedly.

He hath only forbidden you dead meat, and blood, and the flesh of swine, and that on which any other name hath been invoked besides that of Allah. But if one is forced by necessity, without wilful disobedience, nor transgressing due limits,- then is he guiltless. For Allah is Oft-forgiving Most Merciful.

Those of you who die and leave widows should bequeath for their widows a year's maintenance and residence; but if they leave (The residence), there is no blame on you for what they do with themselves, provided it is reasonable. And Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise.

If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (submission to Allah), never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter He will be in the ranks of those who have lost (All spiritual good).

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.

In what your wives leave, your share is a half, if they leave no child; but if they leave a child, ye get a fourth; after payment of legacies and debts. In what ye leave, their share is a fourth, if ye leave no child; but if ye leave a child, they get an eighth; after payment of legacies and debts. If the man or woman whose inheritance is in question, has left neither ascendants nor descendants, but has left a brother or a sister, each one of the two gets a sixth; but if more than two, they share in a third; after payment of legacies and debts; so that no loss is caused (to any one). Thus is it ordained by Allah; and Allah is All-knowing, Most Forbearing.

Also (prohibited are) women already married, except those whom your right hands possess: Thus hath Allah ordained (Prohibitions) against you: Except for these, all others are lawful, provided ye seek (them in marriage) with gifts from your property,- desiring chastity, not lust, seeing that ye derive benefit from them, give them their dowers (at least) as prescribed; but if, after a dower is prescribed, agree Mutually (to vary it), there is no blame on you, and Allah is All-knowing, All-wise.

If any of you have not the means wherewith to wed free believing women, they may wed believing girls from among those whom your right hands possess: And Allah hath full knowledge about your faith. Ye are one from another: Wed them with the leave of their owners, and give them their dowers, according to what is reasonable: They should be chaste, not lustful, nor taking paramours: when they are taken in wedlock, if they fall into shame, their punishment is half that for free women. This (permission) is for those among you who fear sin; but it is better for you that ye practise self-restraint. And Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.

Of the Jews there are those who displace words from their (right) places, and say: "We hear and we disobey"; and "Hear what is not Heard"; and "Ra'ina"; with a twist of their tongues and a slander to Faith. If only they had said: "What hear and we obey"; and "Do hear"; and "Do look at us"; it would have been better for them, and more proper; but Allah hath cursed them for their Unbelief; and but few of them will believe.

They have "Obedience" on their lips; but when they leave thee, a section of them Meditate all night on things very different from what thou tellest them. But Allah records their nightly (plots): So keep clear of them, and put thy trust in Allah, and enough is Allah as a disposer of affairs.

If anyone contends with the Messenger even after guidance has been plainly conveyed to him, and follows a path other than that becoming to men of Faith, We shall leave him in the path he has chosen, and land him in Hell,- what an evil refuge!

O ye who believe! fulfil (all) obligations. Lawful unto you (for food) are all four-footed animals, with the exceptions named: But animals of the chase are forbidden while ye are in the sacred precincts or in pilgrim garb: for Allah doth command according to His will and plan.

Forbidden to you (for food) are: dead meat, blood, the flesh of swine, and that on which hath been invoked the name of other than Allah; that which hath been killed by strangling, or by a violent blow, or by a headlong fall, or by being gored to death; that which hath been (partly) eaten by a wild animal; unless ye are able to slaughter it (in due form); that which is sacrificed on stone (altars); (forbidden) also is the division (of meat) by raffling with arrows: that is impiety. This day have those who reject faith given up all hope of your religion: yet fear them not but fear Me. This day have I perfected your religion for you, completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion. But if any is forced by hunger, with no inclination to transgression, Allah is indeed Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.

This day are (all) things good and pure made lawful unto you. The food of the People of the Book is lawful unto you and yours is lawful unto them. (Lawful unto you in marriage) are (not only) chaste women who are believers, but chaste women among the People of the Book, revealed before your time,- when ye give them their due dowers, and desire chastity, not lewdness, nor secret intrigues if any one rejects faith, fruitless is his work, and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (all spiritual good).

Say: "O people of the Book! exceed not in your religion the bounds (of what is proper), trespassing beyond the truth, nor follow the vain desires of people who went wrong in times gone by,- who misled many, and strayed (themselves) from the even way.

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!"

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.

Do they just wait for the final fulfilment of the event? On the day the event is finally fulfilled, those who disregarded it before will say: "The messengers of our Lord did indeed bring true (tidings). Have we no intercessors now to intercede on our behalf? Or could we be sent back? then should we behave differently from our behaviour in the past." In fact they will have lost their souls, and the things they invented will leave them in the lurch.

But the transgressors among them changed the word from that which had been given them so we sent on them a plague from heaven. For that they repeatedly transgressed.

Behold! Allah promised you one of the two (enemy) parties, that it should be yours: Ye wished that the one unarmed should be yours, but Allah willed to justify the Truth according to His words and to cut off the roots of the Unbelievers;-

He said: "O my people! do ye see? if I have a Clear (Sign) from my Lord and He hath sent Mercy unto me from Himself,- who then can help me against Allah if I were to disobey Him? What then would ye add to my (portion) but perdition?

It was not We that wronged them: They wronged their own souls: the deities, other than Allah, whom they invoked, profited them no whit when there issued the decree of thy Lord: Nor did they add aught (to their lot) but perdition!

And those who are blessed shall be in the Garden: They will dwell therein for all the time that the heavens and the earth endure, except as thy Lord willeth: a gift without break.

Be not then in doubt as to what these men worship. They worship nothing but what their fathers worshipped before (them): but verily We shall pay them back (in full) their portion without (the least) abatement.

One day the earth will be changed to a different earth, and so will be the heavens, and (men) will be marshalled forth, before Allah, the One, the Irresistible;

He has only forbidden you dead meat, and blood, and the flesh of swine, and any (food) over which the name of other than Allah has been invoked. But if one is forced by necessity, without wilful disobedience, nor transgressing due limits,- then Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

Being true in faith to Allah, and never assigning partners to Him: if anyone assigns partners to Allah, is as if he had fallen from heaven and been snatched up by birds, or the wind had swooped (like a bird on its prey) and thrown him into a far-distant place.

O ye who believe! enter not houses other than your own, until ye have asked permission and saluted those in them: that is best for you, in order that ye may heed (what is seemly).

It is no fault on your part to enter houses not used for living in, which serve some (other) use for you: And Allah has knowledge of what ye reveal and what ye conceal.

Such elderly women as are past the prospect of marriage,- there is no blame on them if they lay aside their (outer) garments, provided they make not a wanton display of their beauty: but it is best for them to be modest: and Allah is One Who sees and knows all things.

但不义的人改变了他们所奉的嘱言，故我降天灾於不义者，那是由於他们的犯罪。

他只禁戒你们吃自死物、血液、猪肉、以及诵非真主之名而宰的动物；凡为势所迫，非出自愿，且不过分的人，（虽吃禁物），毫无罪过。因为真主确是至赦的，确是至慈的。

你们中弃世而遗留妻子的人，当为妻室而遗嘱，当供给她们一年的衣食，不可将她们驱逐出去。如果她们自愿出去，那末，她们关於自身的合礼的行为，对於你们是毫无罪过的。真主是万能的，是至睿的。

舍伊斯教寻求别的宗教的人，他所寻求的宗教，绝不被接受，他在后世，是亏折的。

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。”

如果你们的妻室没有子女，那末，你们得受她们的遗产的二分之一。如果她们有子女，那末，你们得受她们的遗产的四分之一。（这种分配）须在交付亡人所嘱的遗赠或清偿亡人所欠的债务之后。如果你们没有子女，那末，你们的妻室得你们遗产的四分之一。如果你们有子女，那末，她们得你们遗产的八分之一。（这种分配），须在交付亡人所嘱的遗赠或清偿亡人所欠的债务之后。如果被继承的男子或女子，上无父母，下无子女，只有（同母异父的）更多的兄弟和姐妹，那末，他们和她们，均分遗产的三分之一。（这种分配），须在交付亡人所嘱的遗赠或清偿亡人所欠的债务之后，但留遗嘱的时候，不得妨害继承人的权利。 这是从真主发出的命令。真主是全知的，是至容的。

（他又严禁你们娶）有丈夫的妇女，但你们所管辖的妇女除外；真主以此为你们的定制。除此以外，一切妇女，对于你们是合法的，你们可以借自己的财产而谋与妇女结合，但你们应当是贞节的，不可是淫荡的。既与你们成婚的妇女，你们应当把已决定的聘仪交给她们。既决定聘仪之后，你们双方同意的事，对于你们是毫无罪过的。真主确是全知的，确是至睿的。

你们当中在能力方面谁不能娶信道的自由女，谁可以娶友所管辖的信道的奴婢。真主是知道你们的信仰的。你们彼此是同教的，故你们取得她们的主人的许可后，可娶她们为妻室，你们应当把她们的聘仪照例交给她们，但她们应当是贞节的，不可是淫荡的，也不可是有情人的。她们既婚之后，如果作了丑事，那末，她们应受自由女所应受的刑罚的一半。这是特许你们中恐陷于奸淫的人规定的。你们能坚忍，那对于你们是更好的。真主是至赦的，是至慈的。

犹太教徒中有一群人篡改经文，他们说：“我们听而不从”，”愿你听而不闻”，“拉仪那”，这是因为巧方谩骂，诽谤正教。假若他们说：“我们既听且从”，“你听吧”，”温助尔那”，这对他们是更好的，是更正的。但真主因他们不信道而弃绝他们，故他们除少数人外都不信道。

他们说：“遵命。”当他们从你面前出去的时候， 他们中一部分人就阴谋变更他们所说的话，真主是要记录他们的阴谋的。故你当宽恕他们，当信托真主。真主足为受托者。

谁在认清正道之后反对使者，而遵循非信士的道路，我将听谁自便，并使他入于火狱中，那是一个恶劣的归宿。

信道的人们啊!你们当履行各种约言。除将对你们宣读者外，准许你们吃一切牲畜，但受戒期间，或在禁地境内，不要猎取飞禽走兽。真主必定判决他所欲判决的。

禁止你们吃自死物、血液、猪肉、以及诵非真主之名而宰杀的、勒死的、捶死的、跌死的、觝死的、野兽吃剩的动物，但宰后才死的，仍然可吃；禁止你们吃在神石上宰杀的；禁止你们求签，那是罪恶。今天，不信道的人，对于（消灭）你们的宗教已经绝望了，故你们不要畏惧他们，你们当畏惧我。今天，我已为你们成全你们的宗教，我已完成我所赐你们的恩典，我已选择伊斯兰做你们的宗教。凡为饥荒所迫，而无意犯罪的，（虽吃禁物，毫无罪过），因为真主确是至赦的，确是至慈的。

今天，准许你们吃一切佳美的食物；曾受天经者的食物，对于你们是合法的；你们的食物，对于他们也是合法的；信道的自由女，和曾受天经的自由女，对于你们都是合法的，如果你们把他们的聘仪交给她们，但你们应当是贞节的，不可是淫荡的，也不可是有情人的。谁否认正信，谁的善功，确已无效了；他在后世，是亏折的人。

你说：“信奉天经的人呀!你们对于自己的宗教，不要无理的过分。有一伙人，以前曾自己迷误，并使许多人迷误，而且背离正道，你们不要顺从他们的私欲。”

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。

他们只等待那部经典的效果，他的效果到来的日子，从前忘记这经典的人将会说：“我们的主的众使者，确已昭示真理了！我们有几位说情的人来替我们说情，或准我们返回尘世去，舍罪恶而立善功吗？”他们确已亏折了自身，他们所捏造的事已回避他们了。

但他们中不义者改变了他们所奉的嘱言，故我因他们的不义而降天灾于他们。

当时，真主应许你们两伙人中的一伙，你们要的是没有武装的那一伙，而真主欲以他的言辞证实真理，并根绝不信道的人，

他说：“我的宗族啊！你们告诉我吧！如果我是依据从我的主降示的明证的，并且他曾将从自己发出的慈恩赏赐了我，那末，如果我违抗了真主，谁能保证我不受他的惩罚呢？你们只能使我遭受更大的损失。

我没有亏待他们，但他们亏待自己。他们舍真主而祈祷的众神灵，当你的主的命令降临的时候，对于他们无济于事，只使他们更受损伤。

至于幸福的，将进入乐园，而永居其中，天长地久，除非你的主所意欲的。那是不断的赏赐。

你对这等人所崇拜的（偶像），不要怀疑，他们只像他们的祖先那样崇拜，我必定要把他们的份儿完全无缺地赏赐他们。

在那日，这大地要变成别的大地，诸天也要变成为别的诸天，他们要出来见独一的、全能的真主。

他只禁止你们吃自死物、血液、猪肉，以及诵非真主之名而屠宰者。但为势所迫，非出自愿，且不过分者，那末，真主确是至赦的，确是至慈的。

同时为真主而信奉正教，不以物配他。谁以物配真主，谁如从天空坠落，而被群鸟夺走，或被大风扫荡到远方。

信道的人们啊！你们不要进他人的家去，直到你们请求许可， 并向主人祝安。这对于你们是更高尚的，（真主这样指导你们），以便你们能记取教诲。

如果房屋内没有私家居住，而其中有你们自己的财物，你们无妨进去。 真主知道你们所表现的，和你们所隐藏的。

不希望结婚的老妇，脱去外衣，而不露出首饰，这对于她们是无罪过的。 自己检点，对她们是更好的。真主是全聪的，是全知的。
