49 - Al-Hujurat

اِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُوْنَ اِخْوَۃٌ فَاَصْلِحُوْا بَيْنَ اَخَوَيْكُمْ وَاتَّقُوا اللہَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُرْحَمُوْنَ۝۱۰ۧ
Innama almuminoona ikhwatun faaslihoo bayna akhawaykum waittaqoo Allaha laAAallakum turhamoona

English

Ahmed Ali

The faithful are surely brothers; so restore friendship among your brothers, and fear God that you may be favoured.

يٰۗاَيُّہَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا لَا يَسْخَرْ قَوْمٌ مِّنْ قَوْمٍ عَسٰۗى اَنْ يَّكُوْنُوْا خَيْرًا مِّنْہُمْ وَلَا نِسَاۗءٌ مِّنْ نِّسَاۗءٍ عَسٰۗى اَنْ يَّكُنَّ خَيْرًا مِّنْہُنَّ۝۰ۚ وَلَا تَلْمِزُوْۗا اَنْفُسَكُمْ وَلَا تَنَابَزُوْا بِالْاَلْقَابِ۝۰ۭ بِئْسَ الِاسْمُ الْفُسُوْقُ بَعْدَ الْاِيْمَانِ۝۰ۚ وَمَنْ لَّمْ يَتُبْ فَاُولٰۗىِٕكَ ہُمُ الظّٰلِمُوْنَ۝۱۱
Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo la yaskhar qawmun min qawmin AAasa an yakoonoo khayran minhum wala nisaon min nisain AAasa an yakunna khayran minhunna wala talmizoo anfusakum wala tanabazoo bialalqabi bisa alismu alfusooqu baAAda aleemani waman lam yatub faolaika humu alththalimoona

English

Ahmed Ali

O you who believe, men should not laugh at other men, for it may be they are better than them; and women should not laugh at other women, for they may perhaps be better than them. Do not slander one another, nor give one another nick-names. After believing, it is bad to give (another) a bad name. Those who do not repent behave wickedly.

11

يٰۗاَيُّہَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوا اجْتَنِبُوْا كَثِيْرًا مِّنَ الظَّنِّ۝۰ۡاِنَّ بَعْضَ الظَّنِّ اِثْمٌ وَّلَا تَجَسَّسُوْا وَلَا يَغْتَبْ بَّعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا۝۰ۭ اَيُحِبُّ اَحَدُكُمْ اَنْ يَّاْكُلَ لَحْمَ اَخِيْہِ مَيْتًا فَكَرِہْتُمُوْہُ۝۰ۭ وَاتَّقُوا اللہَ۝۰ۭ اِنَّ اللہَ تَوَّابٌ رَّحِيْمٌ۝۱۲
Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo ijtaniboo katheeran mina alththanni inna baAAda alththanni ithmun wala tajassasoo wala yaghtab baAAdukum baAAdan ayuhibbu ahadukum an yakula lahma akheehi maytan fakarihtumoohu waittaqoo Allaha inna Allaha tawwabun raheemun

English

Ahmed Ali

O you who believe, avoid most suspicions: Some suspicions are indeed sins. So do not pry into others' secrets and do not backbite. Would any of you like to eat a dead brother's flesh? You would surely be revolted by it Then fear God. He is certainly forgiving and kind.

12

يٰۗاَيُّہَا النَّاسُ اِنَّا خَلَقْنٰكُمْ مِّنْ ذَكَرٍ وَّاُنْثٰى وَجَعَلْنٰكُمْ شُعُوْبًا وَّقَبَاۗىِٕلَ لِتَعَارَفُوْا۝۰ۭ اِنَّ اَكْرَمَكُمْ عِنْدَ اللہِ اَتْقٰىكُمْ۝۰ۭ اِنَّ اللہَ عَلِيْمٌ خَبِيْرٌ۝۱۳
Ya ayyuha alnnasu inna khalaqnakum min thakarin waontha wajaAAalnakum shuAAooban waqabaila litaAAarafoo inna akramakum AAinda Allahi atqakum inna Allaha AAaleemun khabeerun

English

Ahmed Ali

O men, We created you from a male and female, and formed you into nations and tribes that you may recognise each other. He who has more integrity has indeed greater honour with God. Surely God is all-knowing and well-informed.

13

قَالَتِ الْاَعْرَابُ اٰمَنَّا۝۰ۭ قُلْ لَّمْ تُؤْمِنُوْا وَلٰكِنْ قُوْلُوْۗا اَسْلَمْنَا وَلَمَّا يَدْخُلِ الْاِيْمَانُ فِيْ قُلُوْبِكُمْ۝۰ۭ وَاِنْ تُطِيْعُوا اللہَ وَرَسُوْلَہٗ لَا يَـلِتْكُمْ مِّنْ اَعْمَالِكُمْ شَـيْـــــًٔا۝۰ۭ اِنَّ اللہَ غَفُوْرٌ رَّحِيْمٌ۝۱۴
Qalati alaAArabu amanna qul lam tuminoo walakin qooloo aslamna walamma yadkhuli aleemanu fee quloobikum wain tuteeAAoo Allaha warasoolahu la yalitkum min aAAmalikum shayan inna Allaha ghafoorun raheemun

English

Ahmed Ali

The Arabs of the desert say: "We believe." Tell them: "You do not believe. Better say: 'We submit'; for belief has not yet penetrated your hearts." If you begin to obey God and His Apostle, He will not withhold the least (of the recompense) of your labour. Verily God is forgiving and kind."

14

اِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُوْنَ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا بِاللہِ وَرَسُوْلِہٖ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَرْتَابُوْا وَجٰہَدُوْا بِاَمْوَالِہِمْ وَاَنْفُسِہِمْ فِيْ سَبِيْلِ اؘ۝۰ۭ اُولٰۗىِٕكَ ہُمُ الصّٰدِقُوْنَ۝۱۵
Innama almuminoona allatheena amanoo biAllahi warasoolihi thumma lam yartaboo wajahadoo biamwalihim waanfusihim fee sabeeli Allahi olaika humu alssadiqoona

English

Ahmed Ali

They alone are believers who come to believe in God and His Apostle, then never doubt again, and struggle wealth and soul in the way of God. They are the truthful and sincere.

15

قُلْ اَتُعَلِّمُوْنَ اللہَ بِدِيْنِكُمْ۝۰ۭ وَاللہُ يَعْلَمُ مَا فِي السَّمٰوٰتِ وَمَا فِي الْاَرْضِ۝۰ۭ وَاللہُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيْمٌ۝۱۶
Qul atuAAallimoona Allaha bideenikum waAllahu yaAAlamu ma fee alssamawati wama fee alardi waAllahu bikulli shayin AAaleemun

English

Ahmed Ali

Say: "Are you trying to convince God of your faithfulness? But God knows all there is in the heavens and the earth, for God has knowledge of everything."

16

يَمُنُّوْنَ عَلَيْكَ اَنْ اَسْلَمُوْا۝۰ۭ قُلْ لَّا تَمُنُّوْا عَلَيَّ اِسْلَامَكُمْ۝۰ۚ بَلِ اللہُ يَمُنُّ عَلَيْكُمْ اَنْ ہَدٰىكُمْ لِلْاِيْمَانِ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِيْنَ۝۱۷
Yamunnoona AAalayka an aslamoo qul la tamunnoo AAalayya islamakum bali Allahu yamunnu AAalaykum an hadakum lileemani in kuntum sadiqeena

English

Ahmed Ali

They impress upon you that they have submitted. Tell them: "Do not favour me with your submission. In fact God has favoured you by showing you the way to belief, if you are men of truth."

17

اِنَّ اللہَ يَعْلَمُ غَيْبَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ۝۰ۭ وَاللہُ بَصِيْرٌۢ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ۝۱۸ۧ
Inna Allaha yaAAlamu ghayba alssamawati waalardi waAllahu baseerun bima taAAmaloona

English

Ahmed Ali

Verily God knows the unknown of the heavens and the earth; and God perceives all you do.
