وَ لَقَدْ اٰتَيْنَا مُوْسَى الْكِتٰبَ وَقَفَّيْنَا مِنْۢ بَعْدِہٖ بِالرُّسُلِ۝۰ۡ وَاٰتَيْنَا عِيْسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ الْبَيِّنٰتِ وَاَيَّدْنٰہُ بِرُوْحِ الْقُدُسِ۝۰ۭ اَفَكُلَّمَا جَاۗءَكُمْ رَسُوْلٌۢ بِمَا لَا تَہْوٰۗى اَنْفُسُكُمُ اسْتَكْبَرْتُمْ۝۰ۚ فَفَرِيْقًا كَذَّبْتُمْ۝۰ۡوَفَرِيْقًا تَقْتُلُوْنَ۝۸۷
Walaqad atayna moosa alkitaba waqaffayna min baAAdihi bialrrusuli waatayna AAeesa ibna maryama albayyinati waayyadnahu biroohi alqudusi afakullama jaakum rasoolun bima la tahwa anfusukumu istakbartum fafareeqan kaththabtum wafareeqan taqtuloona

English

Ahmed Ali

Remember We gave Moses the Book and sent after him many an apostle; and to Jesus, son of Mary, We gave clear evidence of the truth, reinforcing him with divine grace. Even so, when a messenger brought to you what did not suit your mood you turned haughty, and called some imposters and some others you slew.

87

وَقَالُوْا قُلُوْبُنَا غُلْفٌ۝۰ۭ بَلْ لَّعَنَہُمُ اللہُ بِكُفْرِھِمْ فَقَلِيْلًا مَّا يُؤْمِنُوْنَ۝۸۸
Waqaloo quloobuna ghulfun bal laAAanahumu Allahu bikufrihim faqaleelan ma yuminoona

English

Ahmed Ali

And they say: "Our hearts are enfolded in covers." In fact God has cursed them for their unbelief; and only a little do they believe.

88

وَلَمَّا جَاۗءَھُمْ كِتٰبٌ مِّنْ عِنْدِ اللہِ مُصَدِّقٌ لِّمَا مَعَھُمْ۝۰ۙ وَكَانُوْا مِنْ قَبْلُ يَسْتَفْتِحُوْنَ عَلَي الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا۝۰ۚۖ فَلَمَّا جَاۗءَھُمْ مَّا عَرَفُوْا كَفَرُوْا بِہٖ۝۰ۡفَلَعْنَۃُ اللہِ عَلَي الْكٰفِرِيْنَ۝۸۹
Walamma jaahum kitabun min AAindi Allahi musaddiqun lima maAAahum wakanoo min qablu yastaftihoona AAala allatheena kafaroo falamma jaahum ma AAarafoo kafaroo bihi falaAAnatu Allahi AAala alkafireena

English

Ahmed Ali

And when the Book was sent to them by God verifying what had been revealed to them already even though before it they used to pray for victory over the unbelievers and even though they recognised it when it came to them, they renounced it. The curse of God be on those who deny!

89

بِئْسَمَا اشْتَرَوْا بِہٖۗ اَنْفُسَھُمْ اَنْ يَّكْفُرُوْا بِمَاۗ اَنْزَلَ اللہُ بَغْيًا اَنْ يُّنَزِّلَ اللہُ مِنْ فَضْلِہٖ عَلٰي مَنْ يَّشَاۗءُ مِنْ عِبَادِہٖ۝۰ۚ فَبَاۗءُوْ بِغَضَبٍ عَلٰي غَضَبٍ۝۰ۭ وَلِلْكٰفِرِيْنَ عَذَابٌ مُّہِيْنٌ۝۹۰
Bisama ishtaraw bihi anfusahum an yakfuroo bima anzala Allahu baghyan an yunazzila Allahu min fadlihi AAala man yashao min AAibadihi fabaoo bighadabin AAala ghadabin walilkafireena AAathabun muheenun

English

Ahmed Ali

They bartered their lives ill denying the revelation of God out of spite that God should bestow His grace among His votaries on whomsoever He will, and thus earned wrath upon wrath. The punishment for disbelievers is ignominious.

90

وَاِذَا قِيْلَ لَھُمْ اٰمِنُوْا بِمَاۗ اَنْزَلَ اللہُ قَالُوْا نُؤْمِنُ بِمَاۗ اُنْزِلَ عَلَيْنَا وَيَكْفُرُوْنَ بِمَا وَرَاۗءَہٗ۝۰ۤ وَھُوَا لْحَقُّ مُصَدِّقًا لِّمَا مَعَھُمْ۝۰ۭ قُلْ فَلِمَ تَقْتُلُوْنَ اَنْۢبِيَاۗءَ اللہِ مِنْ قَبْلُ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ ￁مِنِيْنَ۝۹۱
Waitha qeela lahum aminoo bima anzala Allahu qaloo numinu bima onzila AAalayna wayakfuroona bima waraahu wahuwa alhaqqu musaddiqan lima maAAahum qul falima taqtuloona anbiyaa Allahi min qablu in kuntum mumineena

English

Ahmed Ali

And when it is said to them: "believe in what God has sent down," they say: "We believe what was sent to us, and do not believe what has come thereafter," although it affirms the truth they possess already. Say: "Why have you then been slaying God's apostles as of old, if you do believe?"

91

وَلَقَدْ جَاۗءَكُمْ مُّوْسٰى بِالْبَيِّنٰتِ ثُمَّ اتَّخَذْتُمُ الْعِـجْلَ مِنْۢ بَعْدِہٖ وَاَنْتُمْ ظٰلِمُوْنَ۝۹۲
Walaqad jaakum moosa bialbayyinati thumma ittakhathtumu alAAijla min baAAdihi waantum thalimoona

English

Ahmed Ali

Although Moses had come to you with evidence of the truth, you chose the calf in his absence, and you transgressed.

92

وَاِذْ اَخَذْنَا مِيْثَاقَكُمْ وَرَفَعْنَا فَوْقَكُمُ الطُّوْرَ۝۰ۭ خُذُوْا مَاۗ اٰتَيْنٰكُمْ بِقُوَّۃٍ وَّاسْمَعُوْا۝۰ۭ قَالُوْا سَمِعْنَا وَعَصَيْنَا۝۰ۤ وَاُشْرِبُوْا فِيْ قُلُوْبِہِمُ الْعِـجْلَ بِكُفْرِھِمْ۝۰ۭ قُلْ بِئْسَمَا يَاْمُرُكُمْ بِہٖۗ اِيْمَانُكُمْ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ ￁مِنِيْنَ۝۹۳
Waith akhathna meethaqakum warafaAAna fawqakumu alttoora khuthoo ma ataynakum biquwwatin waismaAAoo qaloo samiAAna waAAasayna waoshriboo fee quloobihimu alAAijla bikufrihim qul bisama yamurukum bihi eemanukum in kuntum mumineena

English

Ahmed Ali

Remember when We took your pledge and exalted you on the Mount (saying:) "Hold fast to what We have given you, firmly, and pay heed," you said: "We have heard and will not obey." (The image of) the calf had sunk deep into their hearts on account of unbelief. Say: "Vile is your belief if you are believers indeed!"

93

قُلْ اِنْ كَانَتْ لَكُمُ الدَّارُ الْاٰخِرَۃُ عِنْدَ اللہِ خَالِصَۃً مِّنْ دُوْنِ النَّاسِ فَتَمَنَّوُا الْمَوْتَ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِيْنَ۝۹۴
Qul in kanat lakumu alddaru alakhiratu AAinda Allahi khalisatan min dooni alnnasi fatamannawoo almawta in kuntum sadiqeena

English

Ahmed Ali

Tell them: "If you think you alone will abide with God to the exclusion of the rest of Mankind, in the mansions of the world to come, then wish for death if what you say is true."

94

وَ لَنْ يَّـتَمَنَّوْہُ اَبَدًۢا بِمَا قَدَّمَتْ اَيْدِيْہِمْ۝۰ۭ وَاللہُ عَلِيْمٌۢ بِالظّٰلِــمِيْنَ۝۹۵
Walan yatamannawhu abadan bima qaddamat aydeehim waAllahu AAaleemun bialththalimeena

English

Ahmed Ali

But they will surely not wish for death because of what they had done in the past; and God knows the sinners well.

95

وَلَتَجِدَنَّھُمْ اَحْرَصَ النَّاسِ عَلٰي حَيٰوۃٍ۝۰ۚۛ وَمِنَ الَّذِيْنَ اَشْرَكُــوْا۝۰ۚۛ يَوَدُّ اَحَدُ ھُمْ لَوْ يُعَمَّرُ اَلْفَ سَـنَۃٍ۝۰ۚ وَمَا ھُوَبِمُزَحْزِحِہٖ مِنَ الْعَذَابِ اَنْ يُّعَمَّرَ۝۰ۭ وَاللہُ بَصِيْرٌۢ بِمَا يَعْمَلُوْنَ۝۹۶ۧ
Walatajidannahum ahrasa alnnasi AAala hayatin wamina allatheena ashrakoo yawaddu ahaduhum law yuAAammaru alfa sanatin wama huwa bimuzahzihihi mina alAAathabi an yuAAammara waAllahu baseerun bima yaAAmaloona

English

Ahmed Ali

You will see they are covetous of life more than other men, even more than those who practise idolatry. Each one of them desires to live a thousand years, although longevity will never save them from punishment, for God sees all they do.
