Surah 61

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
10 11 12 13 14

1 All that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth glorifieth Allah, and He is the Mighty, the Wise.

2 O you who believe! Why say you that which you do not ?

3 It is most hateful in the sight of Allah that you say that which you do not.

4 See! Allah loveth them who battle for His cause in ranks, as if they were a solid structure.

5 And (remember) when Moses said to his people: O my people! Why persecute you me, when you well know that I am Allah’s messenger to you ? So when they went astray Allah sent their hearts astray. And Allah guides not the evil-living folk.

6 And when Jesus son of Mary said: O Children of Israel! See! I am the messenger of Allah to you, confirming that which was (revealed) before me in the Torah, and bringing good tidings of a messenger who cometh after me, whose name is the Praised One. Yet when he has come to them with clear proofs, they say: This is mere magic.

7 And who does greater wrong than he who inventeth a lie against Allah when he is summoned to Al-Islam ? And Allah guides not wrongdoing folk.

8 Fain would they put out the light of Allah with their mouths, but Allah will perfect His light however much the disbelievers are averse.

9 He it is Who has sent His messenger with the guidance and the religion of truth, that He may make it conqueror of all religion however much idolaters may be averse.

10 O you who believe! Shall I show you a commerce that will save you from a painful doom ?

11 Ye should believe in Allah and His messenger, and should strive for the cause of Allah with your wealth and your lives. That is better for you, if you did but know.

12 He will forgive you your sins and bring you into Gardens underneath which rivers flow, and pleasant dwellings in Gardens of Eden. That is the supreme triumph.

13 And (He will give you) another (blessing) which you love: help from Allah and present victory. Give good tidings (O Muhammad) to believers.

14 O you who believe! Be Allah’s helpers, even as Jesus son of Mary said to the disciples: Who are my helpers for Allah ? They said: We are Allah’s helpers. And a party of the Children of Israel believed, while a party disbelieved. Then We strengthened those who believed against their foe, and they became the uppermost.
