النحل
Verse 89

وَيَومَ نَبعَثُ في كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ شَهيدًا عَلَيهِم مِن أَنفُسِهِم ۖ وَجِئنا بِكَ شَهيدًا عَلىٰ هـٰؤُلاءِ ۚ وَنَزَّلنا عَلَيكَ الكِتابَ تِبيانًا لِكُلِّ شَيءٍ وَهُدًى وَرَحمَةً وَبُشرىٰ لِلمُسلِمينَ

On the Day when We summon a witness from every community against them, We bring you as a witness against these. We revealed to you the Scripture, clarifying all things—a guide, mercy, and good news for those who submit.

Verse 90

إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَأمُرُ بِالعَدلِ وَالإِحسانِ وَإيتاءِ ذِي القُربىٰ وَيَنهىٰ عَنِ الفَحشاءِ وَالمُنكَرِ وَالبَغيِ ۚ يَعِظُكُم لَعَلَّكُم تَذَكَّرونَ

God commands justice, kindness, and giving to relatives. He prohibits immorality, injustice, and oppression. He advises you, so you may be mindful.

Verse 91

وَأَوفوا بِعَهدِ اللَّهِ إِذا عاهَدتُم وَلا تَنقُضُوا الأَيمانَ بَعدَ تَوكيدِها وَقَد جَعَلتُمُ اللَّهَ عَلَيكُم كَفيلًا ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَعلَمُ ما تَفعَلونَ

Fulfill your commitments to God, and don’t violate your oaths after their confirmation, having made God your guarantor. God knows all that you do.

Verse 92

وَلا تَكونوا كَالَّتي نَقَضَت غَزلَها مِن بَعدِ قُوَّةٍ أَنكاثًا تَتَّخِذونَ أَيمانَكُم دَخَلًا بَينَكُم أَن تَكونَ أُمَّةٌ هِيَ أَربىٰ مِن أُمَّةٍ ۚ إِنَّما يَبلوكُمُ اللَّهُ بِهِ ۚ وَلَيُبَيِّنَنَّ لَكُم يَومَ القِيامَةِ ما كُنتُم فيهِ تَختَلِفونَ

Don’t be like the woman who unravels her finely spun thread, making your oaths a means of deceit among yourselves. God tests you in this manner. On the Day of Resurrection, He will clarify for you everything you disputed.

Verse 93

وَلَو شاءَ اللَّهُ لَجَعَلَكُم أُمَّةً واحِدَةً وَلـٰكِن يُضِلُّ مَن يَشاءُ وَيَهدي مَن يَشاءُ ۚ وَلَتُسأَلُنَّ عَمّا كُنتُم تَعمَلونَ

If God had willed, He could’ve made you one community, but He misguides whom He wills and guides whom He wills. You’ll be questioned about your actions.

وَلا تَتَّخِذوا أَيمانَكُم دَخَلًا بَينَكُم فَتَزِلَّ قَدَمٌ بَعدَ ثُبوتِها وَتَذوقُوا السّوءَ بِما صَدَدتُم عَن سَبيلِ اللَّهِ ۖ وَلَكُم عَذابٌ عَظيمٌ

Don’t make your oaths a means of deception between you, lest your footing slips after being firm, and you suffer distress for hindering others from God’s path, and incur a terrible punishment.

Verse 95

وَلا تَشتَروا بِعَهدِ اللَّهِ ثَمَنًا قَليلًا ۚ إِنَّما عِندَ اللَّهِ هُوَ خَيرٌ لَكُم إِن كُنتُم تَعلَمونَ

Don’t trade God’s covenant for a trivial gain; what God prepared for you is far superior, if only you knew.

Verse 96

ما عِندَكُم يَنفَدُ ۖ وَما عِندَ اللَّهِ باقٍ ۗ وَلَنَجزِيَنَّ الَّذينَ صَبَروا أَجرَهُم بِأَحسَنِ ما كانوا يَعمَلونَ

What you have will run out, but what God has remains. We will reward those who are patient according to their best deeds.

Verse 97

مَن عَمِلَ صالِحًا مِن ذَكَرٍ أَو أُنثىٰ وَهُوَ مُؤمِنٌ فَلَنُحيِيَنَّهُ حَياةً طَيِّبَةً ۖ وَلَنَجزِيَنَّهُم أَجرَهُم بِأَحسَنِ ما كانوا يَعمَلونَ

Whoever acts righteously, male or female, and is a believer, We will grant them a good life and reward them according to their best deeds.

Verse 98

فَإِذا قَرَأتَ القُرآنَ فَاستَعِذ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الشَّيطانِ الرَّجيمِ

When you read the Quran, seek refuge in God from Satan, the outcast.

Verse 99

إِنَّهُ لَيسَ لَهُ سُلطانٌ عَلَى الَّذينَ آمَنوا وَعَلىٰ رَبِّهِم يَتَوَكَّلونَ

He has no authority over those who believe and trust in their Lord.
