Ya ayyuha alnnasu duriba mathalun faistamiAAoo lahu inna allatheena tadAAoona min dooni Allahi lan yakhluqoo thubaban walawi ijtamaAAoo lahu wa-in yaslubuhumu alththubabu shay-an la yastanqithoohu minhu daAAufa alttalibu waalmatloobu\n73. O men! Here is\n A parable set forth!\n Listen to it! Those\n On whom, besides God,\n Ye call, cannot create\n (Even) a fly, if they all\n Met together for the purpose!\n And if the fly should snatch\n Away anything from them,\n They would have no power\n To release it from the fly.\n Feeble are those who petition\n And those whom they petition!\n74. Ma qadaroo Allaha haqqa qadrihi inna Allaha laqawiyyun AAazeezun\n74. No just estimate have they\n Made of God: for God\n Is He Who is strong\n And able to carry out\n His Will.\n75. Allahu yastafee mina almala-ikati rusulan wamina alnnasi inna Allaha sameeAAun baseerun\n75. God chooses Messengers\n From angels and from men\n For God is He Who hears\n And sees (all things).\n76. YaAAlamu ma bayna aydeehim wama khalfahum wa-ila Allahi turjaAAu al-omooru\n76. He knows what is before them\n And what is behind them:\nAnd to God go back\n All questions (for decision).\n77. Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo irkaAAoo waosjudoo waoAAbudoo rabbakum waifAAaloo alkhayra laAAallakum tuflihoona\n77. O ye who believe!\n Bow down, prostrate yourselves,\n And adore your Lord;\n And do good;\n That ye may prosper.\n78. Wajahidoo fee Allahi haqqa jihadihi huwa ijtabakum wama jaAAala AAalaykum fee alddeeni min harajin millata abeekum ibraheema huwa sammakumu almuslimeena min qablu wafee hatha liyakoona alrrasoolu shaheedan AAalaykum watakoonoo shuhadaa AAala alnnasi faaqeemoo alssalata waatoo alzzakata waiAAtasimoo biAllahi huwa mawlakum faniAAma almawla waniAAma alnnaseeru\n78. And strive in His cause\n As ye ought to strive,\n (With sincerity and under discipline).\n He has chosen you, and has\n Imposed no difficulties on you\n In religion; it is the cult\n Of your father Abraham.\n It is He Who has named\n You Muslims, both before\n And in this (Revelation);\n That the Apostle may be\n A witness for you, and ye\n Be witnesses for mankind!\n So establish regular Prayer,\n Give regular Charity,\n And hold fast to God!\n He is your Protector\u2014\n The best to protect\n And the Best to help!","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra XXII.: \u1e24ajj, or The Pilgrimage.: Section 10 (73-78)","type":"page"}
