كُلًّا نُمِدُّ هـٰؤُلاءِ وَهـٰؤُلاءِ مِن عَطاءِ رَبِّكَ ۚ وَما كانَ عَطاءُ رَبِّكَ مَحظورًا
To all—these and those—We extend from the bounty of your Lord. Your Lord’s giving is not restricted.
انظُر كَيفَ فَضَّلنا بَعضَهُم عَلىٰ بَعضٍ ۚ وَلَلآخِرَةُ أَكبَرُ دَرَجاتٍ وَأَكبَرُ تَفضيلًا
Consider how We’ve preferred some over others, yet the Hereafter offers greater ranks and greater in preference.
لا تَجعَل مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلـٰهًا آخَرَ فَتَقعُدَ مَذمومًا مَخذولًا
Don’t set up with God any other god, lest you find yourself despised and forsaken.
وَقَضىٰ رَبُّكَ أَلّا تَعبُدوا إِلّا إِيّاهُ وَبِالوالِدَينِ إِحسانًا ۚ إِمّا يَبلُغَنَّ عِندَكَ الكِبَرَ أَحَدُهُما أَو كِلاهُما فَلا تَقُل لَهُما أُفٍّ وَلا تَنهَرهُما وَقُل لَهُما قَولًا كَريمًا
Your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him, and that you extend kindness to your parents. If one or both of them attain old age in your presence, don’t say ‘uff’ to them, nor scold them, but address them with respectful words.
وَاخفِض لَهُما جَناحَ الذُّلِّ مِنَ الرَّحمَةِ وَقُل رَبِّ ارحَمهُما كَما رَبَّياني صَغيرًا
Lower the wing of humility out of compassion for them, and pray, “My Lord, have mercy on them, as they have brought me up when I was small.”
رَبُّكُم أَعلَمُ بِما في نُفوسِكُم ۚ إِن تَكونوا صالِحينَ فَإِنَّهُ كانَ لِلأَوّابينَ غَفورًا
Your Lord is well aware of what’s within yourselves. If you maintain righteousness, then He is Ever Forgiving to those who are repentant.
وَآتِ ذَا القُربىٰ حَقَّهُ وَالمِسكينَ وَابنَ السَّبيلِ وَلا تُبَذِّر تَبذيرًا
Give due to your relatives, the needy, and the traveler. And don’t squander your wealth.
إِنَّ المُبَذِّرينَ كانوا إِخوانَ الشَّياطينِ ۖ وَكانَ الشَّيطانُ لِرَبِّهِ كَفورًا
The extravagant are brethren of the devils, and Satan has always been ungrateful to his Lord.
وَإِمّا تُعرِضَنَّ عَنهُمُ ابتِغاءَ رَحمَةٍ مِن رَبِّكَ تَرجوها فَقُل لَهُم قَولًا مَيسورًا
But if you turn away from them, seeking mercy from your Lord for which you hope, then speak to them a gentle word.
وَلا تَجعَل يَدَكَ مَغلولَةً إِلىٰ عُنُقِكَ وَلا تَبسُطها كُلَّ البَسطِ فَتَقعُدَ مَلومًا مَحسورًا
Don’t keep your hand tied to your neck, nor extend it fully, lest you end up blamed and regretful.
إِنَّ رَبَّكَ يَبسُطُ الرِّزقَ لِمَن يَشاءُ وَيَقدِرُ ۚ إِنَّهُ كانَ بِعِبادِهِ خَبيرًا بَصيرًا
Your Lord dispenses abundantly to whom He wills, and He measures out. He is always All-Knowing, All-Seeing of His beings.
