يٰۗاَيُّھَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْۗا اِنَّ كَثِيْرًا مِّنَ الْاَحْبَارِ وَالرُّہْبَانِ لَيَاْكُلُوْنَ اَمْوَالَ النَّاسِ بِالْبَاطِلِ وَيَصُدُّوْنَ عَنْ سَبِيْلِ اؘ۝۰ۭ وَالَّذِيْنَ يَكْنِزُوْنَ الذَّہَبَ وَالْفِضَّۃَ وَلَا يُنْفِقُوْنَہَا فِيْ سَبِيْلِ اؘ۝۰ۙ فَبَشِّرْہُمْ بِعَذَابٍ اَلِيْمٍ۝۳۴ۙ
Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo inna katheeran mina alahbari waalrruhbani layakuloona amwala alnnasi bialbatili wayasuddoona AAan sabeeli Allahi waallatheena yaknizoona alththahaba waalfiddata wala yunfiqoonaha fee sabeeli Allahi fabashshirhum biAAathabin aleemin

English

Ahmed Ali

O believers, many rabbis and priests devour the possessions of others wrongfully, and keep men away from the path of God. To those who accumulate gold and silver, and do not spend in the way of God, announce the news of painful punishment.

34

يَّوْمَ يُحْمٰي عَلَيْہَا فِيْ نَارِ جَہَنَّمَ فَتُكْوٰي بِہَا جِبَاہُہُمْ وَجُنُوْبُہُمْ وَظُہُوْرُہُمْ۝۰ۭ ہٰذَا مَا كَنَزْتُمْ لِاَنْفُسِكُمْ فَذُوْقُوْا مَا كُنْتُمْ تَكْنِزُوْنَ۝۳۵
Yawma yuhma AAalayha fee nari jahannama fatukwa biha jibahuhum wajunoobuhum wathuhooruhum hatha ma kanaztum lianfusikum fathooqoo ma kuntum taknizoona

English

Ahmed Ali

On the day We shall heat up (their gold) on the fire of Hell and brand their foreheads, sides and backs (and say to them): "It is this you stored up for yourselves; so now taste of what you had stored!"

35

اِنَّ عِدَّۃَ الشُّہُوْرِ عِنْدَ اللہِ اثْنَا عَشَرَ شَہْرًا فِيْ كِتٰبِ اللہِ يَوْمَ خَلَقَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضَ مِنْہَاۗ اَرْبَعَۃٌ حُرُمٌ۝۰ۭ ذٰلِكَ الدِّيْنُ الْقَيِّمُ۝۰ۥۙ فَلَا تَظْلِمُوْا فِيْہِنَّ اَنْفُسَكُمْ وَقَاتِلُوا الْمُشْرِكِيْنَ كَاۗفَّۃً كَـمَا يُقَاتِلُوْنَكُمْ كَاۗفَّۃً۝۰ۭ وَاعْلَمُوْۗا اَنَّ اللہَ مَعَ الْمُتَّقِيْنَ۝۳۶
Inna AAiddata alshshuhoori AAinda Allahi ithna AAashara shahran fee kitabi Allahi yawma khalaqa alssamawati waalarda minha arbaAAatun hurumun thalika alddeenu alqayyimu fala tathlimoo feehinna anfusakum waqatiloo almushrikeena kaffatan kama yuqatiloonakum kaffatan waiAAlamoo anna Allaha maAAa almuttaqeena

English

Ahmed Ali

The number of months with God is twelve in accordance with God's law since the day He created the heavens and the earth. Of these four are holy. This is the straight reckoning. So do not exceed yourselves during them; but fight the idolaters to the end as they fight you in like manner; and remember, God is with those Who preserve themselves from evil and do the right.

36

اِنَّمَا النَّسِيْۗءُ زِيَادَۃٌ فِي الْكُفْرِ يُضَلُّ بِہِ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا يُحِلُّوْنَہٗ عَامًا وَّيُحَرِّمُوْنَہٗ عَامًا لِّيُوَاطِــــُٔــوْا عِدَّۃَ مَا حَرَّمَ اللہُ فَيُحِلُّوْا مَا حَرَّمَ اؙ۝۰ۭ زُيِّنَ لَہُمْ سُوْۗءُ اَعْمَالِـہِمْ۝۰ۭ وَاللہُ لَا يَہْدِي الْقَوْمَ الْكٰفِرِيْنَ۝۳۷ۧ
Innama alnnaseeo ziyadatun fee alkufri yudallu bihi allatheena kafaroo yuhilloonahu AAaman wayuharrimoonahu AAaman liyuwatioo AAiddata ma harrama Allahu fayuhilloo ma harrama Allahu zuyyina lahum sooo aAAmalihim waAllahu la yahdee alqawma alkafireena

English

Ahmed Ali

Intercalating a month is adding to unbelief. The unbelievers are misguided by this, for they take the same month to be sacred one year and sacrilegious the next, thus making the number of months sanctified by God accord with theirs in order to make what God has forbidden, lawful. Attractive seem to them their evil deeds; but God does not show the unbelievers the way.

37

يٰۗاَيُّھَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا مَا لَكُمْ اِذَا قِيْلَ لَكُمُ انْفِرُوْا فِيْ سَبِيْلِ اللہِ اثَّاقَلْتُمْ اِلَى الْاَرْضِ۝۰ۭ اَرَضِيْتُمْ بِالْحَيٰوۃِ الدُّنْيَا مِنَ الْاٰخِرَۃِ۝۰ۚ فَمَا مَتَاعُ الْحَيٰوۃِ الدُّنْيَا فِي الْاٰخِرَۃِ اِلَّا قَلِيْلٌ۝۳۸
Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo ma lakum itha qeela lakumu infiroo fee sabeeli Allahi iththaqaltum ila alardi aradeetum bialhayati alddunya mina alakhirati fama mataAAu alhayati alddunya fee alakhirati illa qaleelun

English

Ahmed Ali

What has happened to you, O believers, that when you are asked to set out in the cause of God your feet begin to drag? Do you find the life of the world so pleasing that you forget the life to come? Yet the profit of the life of this world is but meagre as compared to the life to come.

38

اِلَّا تَنْفِرُوْا يُعَذِّبْكُمْ عَذَابًا اَلِـــيْمًا۝۰ۥۙ وَّيَسْتَبْدِلْ قَوْمًا غَيْرَكُمْ وَلَا تَضُرُّوْہُ شَـيْــــًٔـا۝۰ۭ وَاللہُ عَلٰي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيْرٌ۝۳۹
Illa tanfiroo yuAAaththibkum AAathaban aleeman wayastabdil qawman ghayrakum wala tadurroohu shayan waAllahu AAala kulli shayin qadeerun

English

Ahmed Ali

Unless you go out (to strive), God will inflict grievous punishment on you, and bring other people in your place, and you will not be able to harm Him in the least, for God has the power over all things.

39

اِلَّا تَنْصُرُوْہُ فَقَدْ نَــصَرَہُ اللہُ اِذْ اَخْرَجَہُ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا ثَانِيَ اثْـنَيْنِ اِذْ ہُمَا فِي الْغَارِ اِذْ يَقُوْلُ لِصَاحِبِہٖ لَا تَحْزَنْ اِنَّ اللہَ مَعَنَا۝۰ۚ فَاَنْزَلَ اللہُ سَكِيْـنَتَہٗ عَلَيْہِ وَاَيَّدَہٗ بِجُنُوْدٍ لَّمْ تَرَوْہَا وَجَعَلَ كَلِمَۃَ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوا السُّفْلٰى۝۰ۭ وَكَلِمَۃُ اللہِ ہِىَ الْعُلْيَا۝۰ۭ وَاللہُ عَزِيْزٌ حَكِيْمٌ۝۴۰
Illa tansuroohu faqad nasarahu Allahu ith akhrajahu allatheena kafaroo thaniya ithnayni ith huma fee alghari ith yaqoolu lisahibihi la tahzan inna Allaha maAAana faanzala Allahu sakeenatahu AAalayhi waayyadahu bijunoodin lam tarawha wajaAAala kalimata allatheena kafaroo alssufla wakalimatu Allahi hiya alAAulya waAllahu AAazeezun hakeemun

English

Ahmed Ali

If you do not help (the Prophet, remember) God had helped him when the infidels had forced him to leave (and he was) one of two. When both of them were in the cave, he said to his companion: "Do not grieve, for God is with us." Then God sent divine peace on him, and invisible armies for his help, and made the unbelievers' purpose abject. Most exalted is God's word, for God is all-mighty and all-wise.

40

اِنْفِرُوْا خِفَافًا وَّثِــقَالًا وَّجَاہِدُوْا بِاَمْوَالِكُمْ وَاَنْفُسِكُمْ فِيْ سَبِيْلِ اؘ۝۰ۭ ذٰلِكُمْ خَيْرٌ لَّكُمْ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُوْنَ۝۴۱
Infiroo khifafan wathiqalan wajahidoo biamwalikum waanfusikum fee sabeeli Allahi thalikum khayrun lakum in kuntum taAAlamoona

English

Ahmed Ali

O believers, go out in the cause of God, (whether) light or heavy, and strive in the service of God, wealth and soul. This is better for you if you understand.

41

لَوْ كَانَ عَرَضًا قَرِيْبًا وَّسَفَرًا قَاصِدًا لَّاتَّبَعُوْكَ وَلٰكِنْۢ بَعُدَتْ عَلَيْہِمُ الشُّقَّۃُ۝۰ۭ وَسَيَحْلِفُوْنَ بِاللہِ لَوِ اسْـتَطَعْنَا لَخَرَجْنَا مَعَكُمْ۝۰ۚ يُہْلِكُوْنَ اَنْفُسَہُمْ۝۰ۚ وَاللہُ يَعْلَمُ اِنَّہُمْ لَكٰذِبُوْنَ۝۴۲ۧ
Law kana AAaradan qareeban wasafaran qasidan laittabaAAooka walakin baAAudat AAalayhimu alshshuqqatu wasayahlifoona biAllahi lawi istataAAna lakharajna maAAakum yuhlikoona anfusahum waAllahu yaAAlamu innahum lakathiboona

English

Ahmed Ali

(O Prophet), had the gain been close at hand, and easy the journey, they would surely have followed you; but hard was the journey and long the going. Even then they swear by God (and say): "If we had the strength we would surely have gone out with you." They are only ruining themselves, for God is aware they lie.

42

عَفَا اللہُ عَنْكَ۝۰ۚ لِمَ اَذِنْتَ لَہُمْ حَتّٰي يَتَبَيَّنَ لَكَ الَّذِيْنَ صَدَقُوْا وَتَعْلَمَ الْكٰذِبِيْنَ۝۴۳
AAafa Allahu AAanka lima athinta lahum hatta yatabayyana laka allatheena sadaqoo wataAAlama alkathibeena

English

Ahmed Ali

May God forgive you. Why did you allow them (to stay behind) without ascertaining who spoke the truth and who were liars?
