لِكُلِّ أُمَّةٍ جَعَلنا مَنسَكًا هُم ناسِكوهُ ۖ فَلا يُنازِعُنَّكَ فِي الأَمرِ ۚ وَادعُ إِلىٰ رَبِّكَ ۖ إِنَّكَ لَعَلىٰ هُدًى مُستَقيمٍ
For every community, We established certain rites which they follow, so don’t let their disputes entangle you. Instead, invite to your Lord. You are on a straight path.
وَإِن جادَلوكَ فَقُلِ اللَّهُ أَعلَمُ بِما تَعمَلونَ
If they argue with you, say, “God knows best about what you’re doing.”
اللَّهُ يَحكُمُ بَينَكُم يَومَ القِيامَةِ فيما كُنتُم فيهِ تَختَلِفونَ
On the Day of Resurrection, God will judge between you, resolving all your disputes.
أَلَم تَعلَم أَنَّ اللَّهَ يَعلَمُ ما فِي السَّماءِ وَالأَرضِ ۗ إِنَّ ذٰلِكَ في كِتابٍ ۚ إِنَّ ذٰلِكَ عَلَى اللَّهِ يَسيرٌ
Don’t you know that God is aware of everything in the heavens and the earth? All of this is recorded in a book; this is easy for God.
وَيَعبُدونَ مِن دونِ اللَّهِ ما لَم يُنَزِّل بِهِ سُلطانًا وَما لَيسَ لَهُم بِهِ عِلمٌ ۗ وَما لِلظّالِمينَ مِن نَصيرٍ
They worship, besides God, what He didn’t authorize, which they have no knowledge of. The wrongdoers will have no supporter.
وَإِذا تُتلىٰ عَلَيهِم آياتُنا بَيِّناتٍ تَعرِفُ في وُجوهِ الَّذينَ كَفَرُوا المُنكَرَ ۖ يَكادونَ يَسطونَ بِالَّذينَ يَتلونَ عَلَيهِم آياتِنا ۗ قُل أَفَأُنَبِّئُكُم بِشَرٍّ مِن ذٰلِكُمُ ۗ النّارُ وَعَدَهَا اللَّهُ الَّذينَ كَفَروا ۖ وَبِئسَ المَصيرُ
When Our clear verses are conveyed to them, you will notice disdain on the faces of the unbelievers. They nearly assault those who convey Our verses to them. Say, “Shall I inform you of something worse than that? The Fire which God has promised those who disbelieve, and wretched is the destination!”
يا أَيُّهَا النّاسُ ضُرِبَ مَثَلٌ فَاستَمِعوا لَهُ ۚ إِنَّ الَّذينَ تَدعونَ مِن دونِ اللَّهِ لَن يَخلُقوا ذُبابًا وَلَوِ اجتَمَعوا لَهُ ۖ وَإِن يَسلُبهُمُ الذُّبابُ شَيئًا لا يَستَنقِذوهُ مِنهُ ۚ ضَعُفَ الطّالِبُ وَالمَطلوبُ
O people, a parable is presented; listen to it attentively: those you call upon besides God can’t even create a fly, even if they combined their efforts. And if a fly were to snatch something away from them, they would be unable to retrieve it. Both the seeker and the sought are weak.
ما قَدَرُوا اللَّهَ حَقَّ قَدرِهِ ۗ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَقَوِيٌّ عَزيزٌ
They don’t appreciate God as He ought to be appreciated. God is Powerful and Mighty.
اللَّهُ يَصطَفي مِنَ المَلائِكَةِ رُسُلًا وَمِنَ النّاسِ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ سَميعٌ بَصيرٌ
God chooses messengers from among angels and humans. God is All-Hearing, All-Seeing.
يَعلَمُ ما بَينَ أَيديهِم وَما خَلفَهُم ۗ وَإِلَى اللَّهِ تُرجَعُ الأُمورُ
He knows their past and their future. All matters will return to God.
يا أَيُّهَا الَّذينَ آمَنُوا اركَعوا وَاسجُدوا وَاعبُدوا رَبَّكُم وَافعَلُوا الخَيرَ لَعَلَّكُم تُفلِحونَ ۩
O you who believe, bow and prostrate yourselves, and worship your Lord, and do good, so that you may succeed.
