Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo la taqooloo raAAina waqooloo onthurna waismaAAoo walilkafireena AAathabun aleemun\n104. ye of Faith!\n Say not (to the Apostle)\n Words of ambiguous import,\n But words of respect;\n And hearken (to him):\n To those without Faith\n Is a grievous punishment.\n105. Ma yawaddu allatheena kafaroo min ahli alkitabi wala almushrikeena an yunazzala AAalaykum min khayrin min rabbikum waAllahu yakhtassu birahmatihi man yashao waAllahu thoo alfadli alAAatheemi\n105. It is never the wish\n Of those without Faith\n Among the People of the Book,\n Nor of the Pagans,\n That anything good\n Should come down to you\n From your Lord.\n But God will choose\n For His special Mercy\n Whom He will\u2014for God is\n Lord of grace abounding.\n106. Ma nansakh min ayatin aw nunsiha na/ti bikhayrin minha aw mithliha alam taAAlam anna Allaha AAala kulli shay-in qadeerun\n106. None of Our revelations\n Do We abrogate\n Or cause to be forgotten,\n But We substitute\nSomething better or similar:\n Knowest thou not that God\n Hath power over all things?\n107. Alam taAAlam anna Allaha lahu mulku alssamawati waal-ardi wama lakum min dooni Allahi min waliyyin wala naseerin\n107. Knowest thou not\n That to God belongeth\n The dominion of the heavens\n And the earth?\n And besides Him ye have\n Neither patron nor helper.\n108. Am tureedoona an tas-aloo rasoolakum kama su-ila moosa min qablu waman yatabaddali alkufra bial-eemani faqad dalla sawaa alssabeeli\n108. Would ye question\n Your Apostle as Moses's\n Was questioned of old?\n But whoever changeth\n From Faith to Unbelief,\n Hath strayed without doubt\n From the even way.\n109. Wadda katheerun min ahli alkitabi law yaruddoonakum min baAAdi eemanikum kuffaran hasadan min AAindi anfusihim min baAAdi ma tabayyana lahumu alhaqqu faoAAfoo waisfahoo hatta ya/tiya Allahu bi-amrihi inna Allaha AAala kulli shay-in qadeerun\n109. Quite a number of the People\n Of the Book wish they could\n Turn you (people) back\n To infidelity after ye have believed,\n From selfish envy,\n After the Truth hath become\n Manifest unto them:\n But forgive and overlook,\nTill God accomplish\n His purpose; for God\n Hath power over all things.'\n110. Waaqeemoo alssalata waatoo alzzakata wama tuqaddimoo li-anfusikum min khayrin tajidoohu AAinda Allahi inna Allaha bima taAAmaloona baseerun\n110. And be steadfast in prayer\n And regular in charity:\n And whatever good\n Ye send forth for your souls\n Before you, ye shall find it\n With God: for God sees\n Well all that ye do.\n111. Waqaloo lan yadkhula aljannata illa man kana hoodan aw nasara tilka amaniyyuhum qul hatoo burhanakum in kuntum sadiqeena\n111. And they say: \"None\n Shall enter Paradise unless\n He be a Jew or a Christian.\"\n Those are their (vain) desires.\n Say: \"Produce your proof\n If ye are truthful.\"\n112. Bala man aslama wajhahu lillahi wahuwa muhsinun falahu ajruhu AAinda rabbihi wala khawfun AAalayhim wala hum yahzanoona\n112. Nay,\u2014whoever submits\n His whole self to God\n And is a doer of good,\n He will get his reward\n With his Lord;\n On such shall be no fear,\n Nor shall they grieve.","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra II.: Baqara, or the Heifer.: Section...","type":"page"}
