مُنِيْبِيْنَ اِلَيْہِ وَاتَّقُوْہُ وَاَقِيْمُوا الصَّلٰوۃَ وَلَا تَكُوْنُوْا مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِيْنَ۝۳۱ۙ
Muneebeena ilayhi waittaqoohu waaqeemoo alssalata wala takoonoo mina almushrikeena

English

Ahmed Ali

Turn towards Him and be dutiful to Him; be firm in devotion, and do not become an idolater,

31

مِنَ الَّذِيْنَ فَرَّقُوْا دِيْنَہُمْ وَكَانُوْا شِيَعًا۝۰ۭ كُلُّ حِزْبٍؚبِمَا لَدَيْہِمْ فَرِحُوْنَ۝۳۲
Mina allatheena farraqoo deenahum wakanoo shiyaAAan kullu hizbin bima ladayhim farihoona

English

Ahmed Ali

(Or) one of those who created rifts in their order and are divided into sects, with each group exulting in what it has (carved out for itself) --

32

وَاِذَا مَسَّ النَّاسَ ضُرٌّ دَعَوْا رَبَّہُمْ مُّنِيْبِيْنَ اِلَيْہِ ثُمَّ اِذَاۗ اَذَاقَہُمْ مِّنْہُ رَحْمَۃً اِذَا فَرِيْقٌ مِّنْہُمْ بِرَبِّہِمْ يُشْرِكُوْنَ۝۳۳ۙ
Waitha massa alnnasa durrun daAAaw rabbahum muneebeena ilayhi thumma itha athaqahum minhu rahmatan itha fareequn minhum birabbihim yushrikoona

English

Ahmed Ali

When misfortune befalls men they pray to their Lord and turn to Him; but afterwards when He has given them a taste of His benevolence a section of them begins to ascribe compeers to their Lord

33

لِيَكْفُرُوْا بِمَاۗ اٰتَيْنٰہُمْ۝۰ۭ فَتَمَتَّعُوْا۝۰۪ فَسَوْفَ تَعْلَمُوْنَ۝۳۴
Liyakfuroo bima ataynahum fatamattaAAoo fasawfa taAAlamoona

English

Ahmed Ali

So as to deny what We have given them. Please yourselves for a time; you will come to know soon.

34

اَمْ اَنْزَلْنَا عَلَيْہِمْ سُلْطٰنًا فَہُوَيَتَكَلَّمُ بِمَا كَانُوْا بِہٖ يُشْرِكُوْنَ۝۳۵
Am anzalna AAalayhim sultanan fahuwa yatakallamu bima kanoo bihi yushrikoona

English

Ahmed Ali

Have We sent down a charter to them which mentions what they associate with Him?

35

وَاِذَاۗ اَذَقْنَا النَّاسَ رَحْمَۃً فَرِحُوْا بِہَا۝۰ۭ وَاِنْ تُصِبْہُمْ سَيِّئَۃٌۢ بِمَا قَدَّمَتْ اَيْدِيْہِمْ اِذَا ہُمْ يَقْنَطُوْنَ۝۳۶
Waitha athaqna alnnasa rahmatan farihoo biha wain tusibhum sayyiatun bima qaddamat aydeehim itha hum yaqnatoona

English

Ahmed Ali

When We give men a taste of Our benevolence they start rejoicing in it. When misfortune befalls them as a result of what they have done themselves, they begin to despair.

36

اَوَلَمْ يَرَوْا اَنَّ اللہَ يَبْسُطُ الرِّزْقَ لِمَنْ يَّشَاۗءُ وَيَقْدِرُ۝۰ۭ اِنَّ فِيْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيٰتٍ لِّـقَوْمٍ يُّؤْمِنُوْنَ۝۳۷
Awalam yaraw anna Allaha yabsutu alrrizqa liman yashao wayaqdiru inna fee thalika laayatin liqawmin yuminoona

English

Ahmed Ali

Do they not see God increases or decreases the means of whosoever He please? Verily there are signs in this for those who believe.

37

فَاٰتِ ذَا الْقُرْبٰى حَقَّہٗ وَ الْمِسْكِيْنَ وَابْنَ السَّبِيْلِ۝۰ۭ ذٰلِكَ خَيْرٌ لِّــلَّذِيْنَ يُرِيْدُوْنَ وَجْہَ اؘ۝۰ۡوَاُولٰۗىِٕكَ ہُمُ الْمُفْلِحُوْنَ۝۳۸
Faati tha alqurba haqqahu waalmiskeena waibna alssabeeli thalika khayrun lillatheena yureedoona wajha Allahi waolaika humu almuflihoona

English

Ahmed Ali

So, give their share to the relatives, the needy, and the wayfarers. This is best for those who seek the way that leads to God, and they will be successful.

38

وَمَاۗ اٰتَيْتُمْ مِّنْ رِّبًا لِّيَرْبُوَا۟ فِيْۗ اَمْوَالِ النَّاسِ فَلَا يَرْبُوْا عِنْدَ اؘ۝۰ۚ وَمَاۗ اٰتَيْتُمْ مِّنْ زَكٰوۃٍ تُرِيْدُوْنَ وَجْہَ اللہِ فَاُولٰۗىِٕكَ ہُمُ الْمُضْعِفُوْنَ۝۳۹
Wama ataytum min riban liyarbuwa fee amwali alnnasi fala yarboo AAinda Allahi wama ataytum min zakatin tureedoona wajha Allahi faolaika humu almudAAifoona

English

Ahmed Ali

What you give on interest to increase (your capital) through others' wealth, does not find increase with God; yet what you give (in alms and charity) with a pure heart, seeking the way of God, will be doubled.

39

اَللہُ الَّذِيْ خَلَقَكُمْ ثُمَّ رَزَقَكُمْ ثُمَّ يُمِيْتُكُمْ ثُمَّ يُحْيِيْكُمْ۝۰ۭ ہَلْ مِنْ شُرَكَاۗىِٕكُمْ مَّنْ يَّفْعَلُ مِنْ ذٰلِكُمْ مِّنْ شَيْءٍ۝۰ۭ سُبْحٰنَہٗ وَتَعٰلٰى عَمَّا يُشْرِكُوْنَ۝۴۰ۧ
Allahu allathee khalaqakum thumma razaqakum thumma yumeetukum thumma yuhyeekum hal min shurakaikum man yafAAalu min thalikum min shayin subhanahu wataAAala AAamma yushrikoona

English

Ahmed Ali

It is God who created you, then gave you sustenance, then He will make you die, and bring you back to life. Is there one among those you associate with Him who can do the least of these things? Too high and exalted is He for what they associate with Him!
