وَكَيفَ أَخافُ ما أَشرَكتُم وَلا تَخافونَ أَنَّكُم أَشرَكتُم بِاللَّهِ ما لَم يُنَزِّل بِهِ عَلَيكُم سُلطانًا ۚ فَأَيُّ الفَريقَينِ أَحَقُّ بِالأَمنِ ۖ إِن كُنتُم تَعلَمونَ
How can I fear what you associate with Him? Instead, you should fear, for you associate with God what He never authorized. So which of the two parties has more right to security, if you know?”
الَّذينَ آمَنوا وَلَم يَلبِسوا إيمانَهُم بِظُلمٍ أُولـٰئِكَ لَهُمُ الأَمنُ وَهُم مُهتَدونَ
Those who believe and don’t pollute their faith with injustice—these will have security, and they are guided.
وَتِلكَ حُجَّتُنا آتَيناها إِبراهيمَ عَلىٰ قَومِهِ ۚ نَرفَعُ دَرَجاتٍ مَن نَشاءُ ۗ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ حَكيمٌ عَليمٌ
We gave this reasoning to Abraham against his people. We raise in rank whom We will. Your Lord is Wise and Knowing.
وَوَهَبنا لَهُ إِسحاقَ وَيَعقوبَ ۚ كُلًّا هَدَينا ۚ وَنوحًا هَدَينا مِن قَبلُ ۖ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّتِهِ داوودَ وَسُلَيمانَ وَأَيّوبَ وَيوسُفَ وَموسىٰ وَهارونَ ۚ وَكَذٰلِكَ نَجزِي المُحسِنينَ
We granted him Isaac and Jacob; each one We guided. We also guided Noah before. And from his offspring, David, Solomon, Job, Joseph, Moses, and Aaron. We thus reward the good-doers.
وَزَكَرِيّا وَيَحيىٰ وَعيسىٰ وَإِلياسَ ۖ كُلٌّ مِنَ الصّالِحينَ
Also, Zechariah, John, Jesus, and Elias—all of the virtuous.
وَإِسماعيلَ وَاليَسَعَ وَيونُسَ وَلوطًا ۚ وَكُلًّا فَضَّلنا عَلَى العالَمينَ
And Ishmael, Elisha, Jonah, and Lot—and each, we preferred over the worlds.
وَمِن آبائِهِم وَذُرِّيّاتِهِم وَإِخوانِهِم ۖ وَاجتَبَيناهُم وَهَدَيناهُم إِلىٰ صِراطٍ مُستَقيمٍ
And among their ancestors, descendants, and brothers—We chose them, and We guided them to a straight path.
ذٰلِكَ هُدَى اللَّهِ يَهدي بِهِ مَن يَشاءُ مِن عِبادِهِ ۚ وَلَو أَشرَكوا لَحَبِطَ عَنهُم ما كانوا يَعمَلونَ
This is God’s guidance; with it, He guides whomever He wills among His servants. If they were to associate others with Him, then all their deeds would be nullified.
أُولـٰئِكَ الَّذينَ آتَيناهُمُ الكِتابَ وَالحُكمَ وَالنُّبُوَّةَ ۚ فَإِن يَكفُر بِها هـٰؤُلاءِ فَقَد وَكَّلنا بِها قَومًا لَيسوا بِها بِكافِرينَ
These are the ones to whom We gave the Scripture, wisdom, and prophethood. If these people reject it, We’ve already entrusted it to a people who won’t reject it.
أُولـٰئِكَ الَّذينَ هَدَى اللَّهُ ۖ فَبِهُداهُمُ اقتَدِه ۗ قُل لا أَسأَلُكُم عَلَيهِ أَجرًا ۖ إِن هُوَ إِلّا ذِكرىٰ لِلعالَمينَ
These are the ones whom God has guided, so emulate their guidance. Say, “I ask for no compensation for it. This is but a reminder to all mankind.”
وَما قَدَرُوا اللَّهَ حَقَّ قَدرِهِ إِذ قالوا ما أَنزَلَ اللَّهُ عَلىٰ بَشَرٍ مِن شَيءٍ ۗ قُل مَن أَنزَلَ الكِتابَ الَّذي جاءَ بِهِ موسىٰ نورًا وَهُدًى لِلنّاسِ ۖ تَجعَلونَهُ قَراطيسَ تُبدونَها وَتُخفونَ كَثيرًا ۖ وَعُلِّمتُم ما لَم تَعلَموا أَنتُم وَلا آباؤُكُم ۖ قُلِ اللَّهُ ۖ ثُمَّ ذَرهُم في خَوضِهِم يَلعَبونَ
They don’t appraise God with true appraisal when they say, “God didn’t reveal anything to any human.” Say, “Then, who revealed the Scripture which Moses brought, a light and guidance for humanity? You treat it as mere sheets of paper, showing some and concealing much. You were taught things that neither you nor your ancestors knew before.” Say, “God.” Then, leave them playing in their vain discussions.
