اِنَّ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَۃَ مِنْ شَعَاۗىِٕرِ اؘ۝۰ۚ فَمَنْ حَجَّ الْبَيْتَ اَوِ اعْتَمَرَ فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْہِ اَنْ يَّطَّوَّفَ بِہِمَا۝۰ۭ وَمَنْ تَطَوَّعَ خَيْرًا۝۰ۙ فَاِنَّ اللہَ شَاكِـرٌ عَلِــيْمٌ۝۱۵۸
Inna alssafa waalmarwata min shaAAairi Allahi faman hajja albayta awi iAAtamara fala junaha AAalayhi an yattawwafa bihima waman tatawwaAAa khayran fainna Allaha shakirun AAaleemun

English

Ahmed Ali

Truly Safa and Marwa are the symbols of God. Whoever goes on pilgrimage to the House (of God), or on a holy visit, is not guilty of wrong if he walk around them; and he who does good of his own accord will find appreciation with God who knows everything.

158

اِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ يَكْتُمُوْنَ مَاۗ اَنْزَلْنَا مِنَ الْبَيِّنٰتِ وَالْہُدٰى مِنْۢ بَعْدِ مَا بَيَّنّٰہُ لِلنَّاسِ فِي الْكِتٰبِ۝۰ۙ اُولٰۗىِٕكَ يَلْعَنُہُمُ اللہُ وَيَلْعَنُہُمُ اللّٰعِنُوْنَ۝۱۵۹ۙ
Inna allatheena yaktumoona ma anzalna mina albayyinati waalhuda min baAAdi ma bayyannahu lilnnasi fee alkitabi olaika yalAAanuhumu Allahu wayalAAanuhumu allaAAinoona

English

Ahmed Ali

They who conceal Our signs and the guidance We have sent them and have made clear in the Book, are condemned of God and are condemned by those who are worthy of condemning.

159

اِلَّا الَّذِيْنَ تَابُوْا وَاَصْلَحُوْا وَبَيَّنُوْا فَاُولٰۗىِٕكَ اَتُوْبُ عَلَيْہِمْ۝۰ۚ وَاَنَا التَّوَّابُ الرَّحِيْمُ۝۱۶۰
Illa allatheena taboo waaslahoo wabayyanoo faolaika atoobu AAalayhim waana alttawwabu alrraheemu

English

Ahmed Ali

But those who repent and reform and proclaim (the truth), are forgiven, for I am forgiving and merciful.

160

اِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا وَمَاتُوْا وَھُمْ كُفَّارٌ اُولٰۗىِٕكَ عَلَيْہِمْ لَعْنَۃُ اللہِ وَالْمَلٰۗىِٕكَۃِ وَالنَّاسِ اَجْمَعِيْنَ۝۱۶۱ۙ
Inna allatheena kafaroo wamatoo wahum kuffarun olaika AAalayhim laAAnatu Allahi waalmalaikati waalnnasi ajmaAAeena

English

Ahmed Ali

But those who deny, and die disbelieving, bear the condemnation of God and the angels and that of all men,

161

خٰلِدِيْنَ فِيْہَا۝۰ۚ لَا يُخَفَّفُ عَنْہُمُ الْعَذَابُ وَلَا ھُمْ يُنْظَرُوْنَ۝۱۶۲
Khalideena feeha la yukhaffafu AAanhumu alAAathabu wala hum yuntharoona

English

Ahmed Ali

Under which they will live, and their suffering will neither decrease nor be respite for them.

162

وَاِلٰـہُكُمْ اِلٰہٌ وَّاحِدٌ۝۰ۚ لَاۗ اِلٰہَ اِلَّا ھُوَالرَّحْمٰنُ الرَّحِيْمُ۝۱۶۳ۧ
Wailahukum ilahun wahidun la ilaha illa huwa alrrahmanu alrraheemu

English

Ahmed Ali

Your God is one God; there is no god other than He, the compassionate, ever-merciful.

163

اِنَّ فِيْ خَلْقِ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ وَاخْتِلَافِ الَّيْلِ وَالنَّہَارِ وَالْفُلْكِ الَّتِىْ تَجْرِيْ فِي الْبَحْرِ بِمَا يَنْفَعُ النَّاسَ وَمَاۗ اَنْزَلَ اللہُ مِنَ السَّمَاۗءِ مِنْ مَّاۗءٍ فَاَحْيَا بِہِ الْاَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِہَا وَبَثَّ فِيْہَا مِنْ كُلِّ دَاۗبَّۃٍ۝۰۠ وَّتَصْرِيْفِ الرِّيٰحِ وَالسَّحَابِ الْمُسَخَّرِ بَيْنَ السَّمَاۗءِ وَالْاَرْضِ لَاٰيٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَّعْقِلُوْنَ۝۱۶۴
Inna fee khalqi alssamawati waalardi waikhtilafi allayli waalnnahari waalfulki allatee tajree fee albahri bima yanfaAAu alnnasa wama anzala Allahu mina alssamai min main faahya bihi alarda baAAda mawtiha wabaththa feeha min kulli dabbatin watasreefi alrriyahi waalssahabi almusakhkhari bayna alssamai waalardi laayatin liqawmin yaAAqiloona

English

Ahmed Ali

Creation of the heavens and the earth, alternation of night and day, and sailing of ships across the ocean with what is useful to man, and the rain that God sends from the sky enlivening the earth that was dead, and the scattering of beasts of all kinds upon it, and the changing of the winds, and the clouds which remain obedient between earth and sky, are surely signs for the wise.

164

وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَنْ يَّتَّخِذُ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللہِ اَنْدَادًا يُّحِبُّوْنَہُمْ كَحُبِّ اؘ۝۰ۭ وَالَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْۗا اَشَدُّ حُبًّا لِّلہِ۝۰ۭ وَلَوْ يَرَى الَّذِيْنَ ظَلَمُوْۗا اِذْ يَرَوْنَ الْعَذَابَ۝۰ۙ اَنَّ الْقُوَّۃَ لِلہِ جَمِيْعًا۝۰ۙ وَّاَنَّ اللہَ شَدِيْدُ الْعَذَابِ۝۱۶۵
Wamina alnnasi man yattakhithu min dooni Allahi andadan yuhibboonahum kahubbi Allahi waallatheena amanoo ashaddu hubban lillahi walaw yara allatheena thalamoo ith yarawna alAAathaba anna alquwwata lillahi jameeAAan waanna Allaha shadeedu alAAathabi

English

Ahmed Ali

And yet there are men who take others as compeers of God, and bestow on them love due to God; but the love of the faithful for God is more intense. If only the wicked could see now the agony that they will behold (on the Day of Resurrection), they will know that to God belongs the power entirely'. And the punishment of God is severe.

165

اِذْ تَبَرَّاَ الَّذِيْنَ اتُّبِعُوْا مِنَ الَّذِيْنَ اتَّبَعُوْا وَرَاَوُا الْعَذَابَ وَتَقَطَّعَتْ بِہِمُ الْاَسْـبَابُ۝۱۶۶
Ith tabarraa allatheena ittubiAAoo mina allatheena ittabaAAoo waraawoo alAAathaba wataqattaAAat bihimu alasbabu

English

Ahmed Ali

When those who were followed will disclaim those who followed them, and see the torment all ties between them shall be severed,

166

وَقَالَ الَّذِيْنَ اتَّبَعُوْا لَوْ اَنَّ لَنَا كَرَّۃً فَنَتَبَرَّاَ مِنْہُمْ كَـمَا تَبَرَّءُوْا مِنَّا۝۰ۭ كَذٰلِكَ يُرِيْہِمُ اللہُ اَعْمَالَہُمْ حَسَرٰتٍ عَلَيْہِمْ۝۰ۭ وَمَا ھُمْ بِخٰرِجِيْنَ مِنَ النَّارِ۝۱۶۷ۧ
Waqala allatheena ittabaAAoo law anna lana karratan fanatabarraa minhum kama tabarraoo minna kathalika yureehimu Allahu aAAmalahum hasaratin AAalayhim wama hum bikharijeena mina alnnari

English

Ahmed Ali

And the followers will say: "Could we live but once again we would leave them as they have abandoned us now." God will show them thus their deeds, and fill them with remorse; but never shall they find release from the Fire.
