Qul man kana AAaduwwan lijibreela fa-innahu nazzalahu AAala qalbika bi-ithni Allahi musaddiqan lima bayna yadayhi wahudan wabushra lilmu/mineena\n97. Say: Whoever is an enemy\n To Gabriel\u2014for he brings down\nThe (revelation) to thy heart\n By God's will, a confirmation\n Of what went before,\n And guidance and glad tidings\n For those who believe,\u2014\n98. Man kana AAaduwwan lillahi wamala-ikatihi warusulihi wajibreela wameekala fa-inna Allaha AAaduwwun lilkafireena\n98. Whoever is an enemy to God\n And His angels and apostles,\n To Gabriel and Michael,\u2014\n Lo! God is an enemy to those\n Who reject Faith.\n99. Walaqad anzalna ilayka ayatin bayyinatin wama yakfuru biha illa alfasiqoona\n99. We have sent down to thee\n Manifest Signs (\u0101y\u0101t);\n And none reject them\n But those who are perverse.\n100. Awa kullama AAahadoo AAahdan nabathahu fareequn minhum bal aktharuhum la yu/minoona\n100. Is it not (the case) that\n Every time they make a Covenant,\n Some party among them\n Throw it aside?\u2014Nay,\n Most of them are faithless.\n101. Walamma jaahum rasoolun min AAindi Allahi musaddiqun lima maAAahum nabatha fareequn mina allatheena ootoo alkitaba kitaba Allahi waraa thuhoorihim kaannahum la yaAAlamoona\n101. And when there came to them\n An Apostle from God,\n Confirming what was with them,\n A party of the People of the Book\n Threw away the Book of God\n Behind their backs,\n As if (it had been something)\n They did not know!\n102. WaittabaAAoo ma tatloo alshshayateenu AAala mulki sulaymana wama kafara sulaymanu walakinna alshshayateena kafaroo yuAAallimoona alnnasa alssihra wama onzila AAala almalakayni bibabila haroota wamaroota wama yuAAallimani min ahadin hatta yaqoola innama nahnu fitnatun fala takfur fayataAAallamoona minhuma ma yufarriqoona bihi bayna almar-i wazawjihi wama hum bidarreena bihi min ahadin illa bi-ithni Allahi wayataAAallamoona ma yadurruhum wala yanfaAAuhum walaqad AAalimoo lamani ishtarahu ma lahu fee al-akhirati min khalaqin walabi/sa ma sharaw bihi anfusahum law kanoo yaAAlamoona\n102. They followed what the evil ones\n Gave out (falsely)\n Against the power\n Of Solomon: the blasphemers\n Were, not Solomon, but\n The evil ones, teaching men\nMagic, and such things\n As came down at Babylon\n To the angels H\u0101r\u016bt and M\u0101r\u016bt.\n But neither of these taught anyone\n (Such things) without saying:\n \"We are only for trial;\n So do not blaspheme.\"\n They learned from them\n The means to sow discord\n Between man and wife.\n But they could not thus\n Harm anyone except\n By God's permission.\n And they learned what harmed them,\n Not what profited them.\n And they knew that the buyers\n Of (magic) would have\n No share in the happiness\n Of the Hereafter. And vile\n Was the price for which\n They did sell their souls,\n If they but knew!\n103. Walaw annahum amanoo waittaqaw lamathoobatun min AAindi Allahi khayrun law kanoo yaAAlamoona\n103. If they had kept their Faith\n And guarded themselves from evil,\nFar better had been\n The reward from their Lord,\n If they but knew!","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra II.: Baqara, or the Heifer.: Section 12 (97-103)","type":"page"}
