Inna ibraheema kana ommatan qanitan lillahi haneefan walam yaku mina almushrikeena\n120. Abraham was indeed a model,\n Devoutly obedient to God,\n (And) true in faith, and he\n Joined not gods with God:\n121. Shakiran li-anAAumihi ijtabahu wahadahu ila siratin mustaqeemin\n121. He showed his gratitude\n For the favours of God,\n Who chose him, and guided him\n To a Straight Way.\n122. Waataynahu fee alddunya hasanatan wa-innahu fee al-akhirati lamina alssaliheena\n122. And We gave him Good\n In this world, and he will be,\nIn the Hereafter, in the ranks\n Of the Righteous,''\n123. Thumma awhayna ilayka ani ittabiAA millata ibraheema haneefan wama kana mina almushrikeena\n123. So We have taught thee\n The inspired (message),\n \"Follow the ways of Abraham\n The True in Faith, and he\n Joined not gods with God.\"\n124. Innama juAAila alssabtu AAala allatheena ikhtalafoo feehi wa-inna rabbaka layahkumu baynahum yawma alqiyamati feema kanoo feehi yakhtalifoona\n124. The Sabbath was only made\n (Strict) for those who disagreed\n (As to its observance);\n But God will judge between them\n On the Day of Judgment,\n As to their differences,\n125. OdAAu ila sabeeli rabbika bialhikmati waalmawAAithati alhasanati wajadilhum biallatee hiya ahsanu inna rabbaka huwa aAAlamu biman dalla AAan sabeelihi wahuwa aAAlamu bialmuhtadeena\n125. Invite (all) to the Way\n Of thy Lord with wisdom\n And beautiful preaching;\n And argue with them\n In ways that are best\n And most gracious:\n For thy Lord knoweth best,\n Who have strayed from His Path,\nAnd who receive guidance.\n126. Wa-in AAaqabtum faAAaqiboo bimithli ma AAooqibtum bihi wala-in sabartum lahuwa khayrun lilssabireena\n126. And if ye do catch them out,\n Catch them out no worse\n Than they catch you out:\n But if ye show patience,\n That is indeed the best (course)\n For those who are patient.\n127. Waisbir wama sabruka illa biAllahi wala tahzan AAalayhim wala taku fee dayqin mimma yamkuroona\n127. And do thou be patient,\n For thy patience is but\n From God; nor grieve over them:\n And distress not thyself\n Because of their plots.\n128. Inna Allaha maAAa allatheena ittaqaw waallatheena hum muhsinoona\n128. For God is with those\n Who restrain themselves,\n And those who do good.","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra XVI.: Na\u1e25l or The Bee.: Sectio...","type":"page"}
