Inna Allaha ishtara mina almu/mineena anfusahum waamwalahum bi-anna lahumu aljannata yuqatiloona fee sabeeli Allahi fayaqtuloona wayuqtaloona waAAdan AAalayhi haqqan fee alttawrati waal-injeeli waalqur-ani waman awfa biAAahdihi mina Allahi faistabshiroo bibayAAikumu allathee bayaAAtum bihi wathalika huwa alfawzu alAAatheemu\n111. God hath purchased of the Believers\n Their persons and their goods;\n For theirs (in return)\n Is the Garden (of Paradise):\n They fight in His Cause,\n And slay and are slain:\n A promise binding on Him\n In Truth, through the Law,\n The Gospel, and the Qur-\u0101n:\n And who is more faithful\n To his Covenant than God?\n Then rejoice in the bargain\n Which ye have concluded:\n That is the achievement supreme.\n112. Altta-iboona alAAabidoona alhamidoona alssa-ihoona alrrakiAAoona alssajidoona al-amiroona bialmaAAroofi waalnnahoona AAani almunkari waalhafithoona lihudoodi Allahi wabashshiri almu/mineena\n112. Those that turn (to God)\n In repentance; that serve Him,\n And praise Him; that wander\n In devotion to the Cause of God;\n That bow down and prostrate themselves\n In prayer; that enjoin good\n And forbid evil; and observe\n The limits set by God;\u2014\n (These do rejoice). So proclaim\n The glad tidings to the Believers.\n113. Ma kana lilnnabiyyi waallatheena amanoo an yastaghfiroo lilmushrikeena walaw kanoo olee qurba min baAAdi ma tabayyana lahum annahum as-habu aljaheemi\n113. It is not fitting,\n For the Prophet and those\n Who believe, that they should\n Pray for forgiveness\n For Pagans, even though\n They be of kin, after it is\n Clear to them that they\n Are companions of the Fire.\n114. Wama kana istighfaru ibraheema li-abeehi illa AAan mawAAidatin waAAadaha iyyahu falamma tabayyana lahu annahu AAaduwwun lillahi tabarraa minhu inna ibraheema laawwahun haleemun\n114. And Abraham prayed\n For his father's forgiveness\n Only because of a promise\n He had made to him.\n But when it became clear\n To him that he was\n An enemy to God, he\n Dissociated himself from him:\n For Abraham was most\n Tender-hearted, forbearing.\n115. Wama kana Allahu liyudilla qawman baAAda ith hadahum hatta yubayyina lahum ma yattaqoona inna Allaha bikulli shay-in AAaleemun\n115. And God will not mislead\n A people after He hath\nGuided them, in order that\n He may make clear to them\n What to fear (and avoid)\u2014\n For God hath knowledge\n Of all things.\n116. Inna Allaha lahu mulku alssamawati waal-ardi yuhyee wayumeetu wama lakum min dooni Allahi min waliyyin wala naseerin\n116. Unto God belongeth\n The dominion of the heavens\n And the earth. He giveth life\n And He taketh it. Except for Him\n Ye have no protector\n Nor helper.\n117. Laqad taba Allahu AAala alnnabiyyi waalmuhajireena waal-ansari allatheena ittabaAAoohu fee saAAati alAAusrati min baAAdi ma kada yazeeghu quloobu fareeqin minhum thumma taba AAalayhim innahu bihim raoofun raheemun\n117. God turned with favour\n To the Prophet, the Muh\u0101jirs,\n And the An\u1e63\u0101r,\u2014who followed\n Him in a time of distress,\n After that the hearts of a part\n Of them had nearly swerved\n (From duty); but He turned\n To them (also): for He is\n Unto them Most Kind,\n Most Merciful.\n118. WaAAala alththalathati allatheena khullifoo hatta itha daqat AAalayhimu al-ardu bima rahubat wadaqat AAalayhim anfusuhum wathannoo an la maljaa mina Allahi illa ilayhi thumma taba AAalayhim liyatooboo inna Allaha huwa alttawwabu alrraheemu\n118. (He turned in mercy also)\n To the three who were left\n Behind; (they felt guilty)\n To such a degree that the earth\nSeemed constrained to them,\n For all its speciousness,\n And their (very) Souls seemed\n Straitened to them,\n And they perceived that\n There is no fleeing from God\n (And no refuge) but to Himself.\n Then He turned to them,\n That they might repent:\n For God is Oft-Returning,\n Most Merciful.","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra IX.: Tauba (Repentance) or Bar\u0101at (Immunity).: Section 14 (111-118)","type":"page"}
