<s>[INST]Chapter 59 verse 16[/INST](The example of hypocrites) is like that of Satan when he says to man: ‘Become a disbeliever,’ but when he disbelieves, he (Satan) says: ‘I feel sick of you. Surely I fear Allah, the Lord of all the worlds.’</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 59 verse 17[/INST]Then both of them will end up in Hell and will live in it forever. And that is indeed the punishment of the wrongdoers.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 59 verse 18[/INST]O Believers! Keep fearing Allah. And everyone should be vigilant to what he has sent forward for tomorrow (the Day of Reckoning). And always fear Allah. Indeed Allah is Well Aware of what you do.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 59 verse 19[/INST]And be not like those who forgot Allah. So Allah made them forget their own souls (that they could send forward some good for their own souls). It is they who are defiant.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 59 verse 20[/INST]The inmates of Hell and the people of Paradise cannot be equal. It is the people of Paradise who are successful and victorious.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 59 verse 21[/INST]Had We sent down this Qur’an on some mountain then, (O listener,) you would certainly have seen it bowed, split and crushed to pieces for fear of Allah. And We give these examples for the people so that they may ponder.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 59 verse 22[/INST]Allah is He besides Whom there is no God: the Knower of the unseen and the seen. He alone is Most Kind, Ever-Merciful.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 59 verse 23[/INST]Allah is He apart from Whom there is no God: (the Real) King, the Most Pure of all shortcomings, Perfectly Free from all imperfections (and the Bestower of Peace), the Giver of security and protection (and the Attester of the Messengers by means of Miracles), the Guardian and Watchful, the Almighty and the Lord of Honour, the Lord of Great Majesty, the Supreme Authority and the Supremely Great. Glory be to Allah, far above all that they associate with Him.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 59 verse 24[/INST]Allah is He Who is the Creator, the One Who brings into existence from nothingness (i.e. the Inventor), the Bestower of Form; (in short,) all Beautiful Names belong to Him alone.

<s>[INST]Chapter 60[/INST]She that is to be examined</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 60 verse 1[/INST]O Believers! Do not make friends with My enemies and your enemies. You communicate to them information because of (your) friendship whereas they just deny the very Truth that has come to you. They drive out the Messenger [blessings and peace be upon him] and you (from your land) because you believe in Allah, your Sustainer. If you have set out to fight in My Way (for the uplift of noble cause) and seek My pleasure (then do not have friendship with them). You send them secret messages of friendship while I know best what you hide and what you make known. And whoever of you does this (misdeed) has deviated from the straight path.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 60 verse 2[/INST]Should they overmaster you then (you will see) they will be your open enemies. And they will extend their hands and tongues to you with evil design and will have the earnest desire that you disbelieve (somehow).</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 60 verse 3[/INST]Neither your (disbelieving and polytheist) kindred nor your (disbelieving and polytheist) children will be of any good to you on the Day of Resurrection. (On that Day Allah will) bring about complete separation between you: (the believers will be sent to Paradise and the disbelievers to Hell). And Allah observes your doings well.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 60 verse 4[/INST]Indeed in Ibrahim (Abraham) and his companions there is an excellent example for you (to follow), when he said to his people: ‘We are utterly weary of (and cut off from) you and the idols that you worship apart from Allah; we have openly rejected you all. The enmity, hatred and malice between us and you have become evident forever until you believe in Allah, the One.’ But Ibrahim’s (Abraham’s) saying to his (fostering) father: ‘I shall certainly pray for your forgiveness,’ (was just a promise made to him well before, which he fulfilled and gave him a reminder as well saying:) ‘I do not possess anything for you before Allah (owing to your disbelief and idol-worship.’ Then he separated from his people, praying:) ‘O our Lord, we put our trust in You alone and we turn in repentance to You alone and (all) have to return to You alone.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 60 verse 5[/INST]O our Lord! Make us not a source of trial for the disbelievers (i.e. give them not control over us) and forgive us. O our Lord, surely You alone are the Almighty, the Lord of Honour, the Most Wise.’</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 60 verse 6[/INST]Indeed there is for you an excellent example in them (to follow), for him (in particular) who hopes (to appear before the Presence of) Allah and looks forward to the Last Day. But whoever turns away then Allah is Self-Sufficient and Praiseworthy.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 60 verse 7[/INST]It may be that Allah brings about friendship (at a later stage) between you and those of them who are now your foes. And Allah is All-Powerful and Most Forgiving, Ever-Merciful.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 60 verse 8[/INST]Allah does not forbid you to be good to them and treat them with equity and justice who did not fight against you on (the question of) Din (Religion), nor did they drive you out of your homes (i.e. homeland). Surely Allah likes those who conduct themselves with equity and justice.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 60 verse 9[/INST]Allah forbids you only to befriend those who fought against you on (the question of) Din (Religion) and drove you out of your homes (i.e. homeland) and aided (your enemies) in expelling you. And whoever makes friends with them, it is they who are the wrongdoers.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 60 verse 10[/INST]O Believers! When the believing women come to you as emigrants, examine them thoroughly. Allah is Well Aware of (the reality of) their faith. Then if you find with certitude that they are true believers, do not send them back to the disbelievers. Neither are they (the believing women) lawful for those disbelievers, nor are those disbelievers lawful for these (believing women). And pay them (the disbelievers) back the money which those disbelievers spent (on them as dower). And there is no sin on you if you marry them while you pay these (women) their dower. And, O Believers, do not hold back the disbelieving women in (your) wedlock and ask (the disbelievers) for that (money) which you spent (on those women as dower), and they (the disbelievers) may also ask you for that (money) which they spent (on these women as dower). That is the Command of Allah. And He judges between you. And Allah is All-Knowing, Most Wise.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 60 verse 11[/INST]And if any of your wives deserts you and goes over to the disbelievers, then (when) you become dominant in war and gain spoils, pay (out of it) those whose wives deserted them as much (money) as they paid (to them as dower). And keep fearing Allah Whom you believe in.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 60 verse 12[/INST]O Prophet! When the believing women appear in your presence to take the oath of allegiance that they will not set up anything as partner with Allah and will not steal, nor will they commit adultery or kill their children or bring false blame which they have invented between their hands and feet (i.e. will not deceive their husbands declaring some other’s baby as born to her) or disobey you in (any) matter pertaining to law, then accept their allegiance and seek forgiveness for them from Allah. Surely Allah is Most Forgiving, Ever-Merciful.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 60 verse 13[/INST]O Believers! Do not make friends with those on whom Allah has sent His wrath. Surely they have despaired of the Hereafter as the disbelievers have despaired of those in graves.</s> |

<s>[INST]Chapter 61 verse 1[/INST]Whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth (all) glorify Allah. And He is the Lord of Honour and Dominance, Most Wise.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 61 verse 2[/INST]O Believers! Why do you say what you do not do?</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 61 verse 3[/INST]It is most hateful in the sight of Allah that you should say what you do not do.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 61 verse 4[/INST]Assuredly Allah loves those who fight in the way of Allah (so) organized in ranks as if they were a wall cemented with molten lead (to eliminate injustice, tyranny and terrorism and restore peace and human dignity).</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 61 verse 5[/INST]And, (O Beloved, recall the time) when Musa (Moses) said to his people: ‘O my People, why do you offend me while you know that I am (a Messenger) sent to you by Allah.’ So when they continued deviating, then Allah made their hearts deviate. And Allah does not guide the defiant.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 61 verse 6[/INST](And also recall the time) when ‘Isa son of Maryam (Jesus son of Mary) said: ‘O Children of Israel, indeed I am (a Messenger) sent to you by Allah, confirming the Torah, the Book which came before me, and bearing the good news of (the pleasant arrival) of (the Esteemed) Messenger (blessings and peace be upon him) who will come after me, whose name is Ahmad (now in the heavens).’ But when he (the Last of the Messengers) came to them with clear Signs, they said: ‘This is open magic.’</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 61 verse 7[/INST]And who can be a greater wrongdoer than he who invents a lie against Allah while he is being invited towards Islam. And Allah does not guide the wrongdoers.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 61 verse 8[/INST]These (deniers of the Truth) desire to put out the Light of Allah by (blowing) with their mouths whereas Allah will take His Light to perfection, even though the disbelievers may dislike it intensely.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 61 verse 9[/INST]He is the One Who has sent His Messenger with Guidance and Din (Religion) of Truth so that He may make it dominate and prevail over all other religions, even though the idolaters may hate it much.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 61 verse 10[/INST]O Believers! Shall I advise you a trade which will save you from a painful torment?</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 61 verse 11[/INST](It is that) you have (perfect) belief in Allah and His Messenger (blessings and peace be upon him) and toil hard for the cause of Allah with your human and material resources. That is better for you if you know.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 61 verse 12[/INST]He will forgive your sins and will admit you into Gardens with streams flowing under them and (will make you reside) in excellent dwellings in the Gardens of Eden (i.e. Gardens of Eternity). That is indeed a great success.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 61 verse 13[/INST]And, (besides this favour in the Hereafter, He will grant you) another (worldly blessing too) which you earnestly desire: (that is) help from Allah and a near victory, and, (O Esteemed Prophet,) give this good news to the believers. (This came about in the form of Makkan Victory and the conquests in Persia and Rome.)</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 61 verse 14[/INST]O Believers! Be helpers of Allah as ‘Isa son of Maryam (Jesus son of Mary) said to (his) disciples: ‘Who are my helpers towards (the path of) Allah?’ The disciples said: ‘We are Allah’s helpers.’ So a party of the Children of Israel believed and a party disbelieved. So We helped the believers against their enemies and they gained the upper hand.</s> |

<s>[INST]Chapter 62 verse 2[/INST]He is the One Who sent a (Glorious) Messenger (blessings and peace be upon him) among the illiterate people from among themselves who recites to them His Revelations and cleanses and purifies them (outwardly and inwardly) and teaches them the Book and Wisdom. Indeed they were in open error before (his most welcome arrival).</s> |

<s>[INST]Chapter 62 verse 4[/INST]This (arrival of the Holy Messenger and his spiritual benevolence and guidance) are Allah’s Bounty which He grants whom He likes. And Allah is Most Bountiful.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 62 verse 5[/INST]The case of those who were burdened with (the Commandments and teachings of) the Torah (but) then did not bear it (i.e. this Messenger was mentioned in it but they disbelieved in him) is like that of a donkey loaded with heavy books on its back. How evil is the example of those who have rejected Allah’s Revelations! And Allah does not guide the wrongdoers.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 62 verse 6[/INST]Say: ‘O Jews, if you think that, leaving all other people, you alone are the friends of Allah (i.e. Awliya’), then long for death (because His Awliya’ will not fear in the grave and the Hereafter) if you are true (in your thinking).’</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 62 verse 7[/INST]And these people will never long for it due to (the rejection of the Messenger and disbelief) which they have sent forward. And Allah knows the wrongdoers well.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 62 verse 8[/INST]Say: ‘The death from which you are fleeing is bound to catch up with you. Then you will be returned to (the Lord) Who knows the unseen and the seen. So He will inform you of what you used to do.’</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 62 verse 9[/INST]O Believers! When on Fridays the call is made for (Jumu‘a) Prayer, hasten towards the remembrance of Allah (i.e. the Jumu‘a sermon and Prayer) immediately and abandon purchase and sale (i.e. business). That is better for you if you have knowledge.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 62 verse 10[/INST]Then after the Prayer is offered disperse in the land and (then) look for Allah’s bounty (i.e. sustenance). And remember Allah much so that you may attain to prosperity.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 62 verse 11[/INST]And when they found some business or entertainment opportunity, they rushed towards that (due to their neediness and financial constraint) and left you standing (during sermon).

When the hypocrites come to you they say: ‘We bear witness that you are certainly the Messenger of Allah.’ And Allah knows that surely you are His Messenger (blessings and peace be upon him). But Allah bears witness that undoubtedly the hypocrites are liars.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 63 verse 2[/INST]They have made their oaths a shield. Then they hinder (the people) from the path of Allah. Surely that is an extremely evil (work) which they are doing.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 63 verse 3[/INST]The reason is that they believed (by the word of mouth) but remained disbelievers (at heart). So their hearts have been sealed. And they do not understand (anything).</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 63 verse 4[/INST](O servant!) When you see them, their bodies (and height and structure) seem attractive to you, and if they speak, you lend ear to what they say (i.e. they will look sensible to you but the fact is that) they are nothing but wooden bars propped up against a supporting wall. They take every loud voice (as some suffering and misery) befallen them. It is these (hypocrites) who are (your) enemies. So be on guard against them. May Allah ruin them! Where are they wandering distracted!</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 63 verse 5[/INST]And when it is said to them: ‘Come so that Allah’s Messenger (blessings and peace be upon him) may seek forgiveness for you,’ these (hypocrites) jerk their heads aside (insolently) and you see them keeping away (from your presence) in arrogance.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 63 verse 6[/INST]It is all the same for these (evil-fated denigrators of the Holy Prophet [blessings and peace be upon him]) whether you seek for them forgiveness or do not seek for them forgiveness, Allah will never forgive them (because they mock you and show you dislike and arrogance). Surely Allah does not provide guidance to the disobedient community.</s> |
<s>[INST]Chapter 63 verse 7[/INST](O Esteemed Beloved!) They are the people who say this as well (out of malice and enmity against you): ‘Do not spend on those (destitute devotees of Allah) who remain in the presence of the Messenger of Allah (i.e. do not provide them financial help) until they (all may desert him and) flee away (and disperse). In truth, to Allah belong all the treasures of the heavens and the earth, but the hypocrites do not understand.</s> |

<s>[INST]Chapter 64 verse 6[/INST]That is because their Messengers brought them clear signs, but they said: ‘Shall a human being (who is our like and from our kind) guide us?’ So they became disbelievers and turned away (from the truth).
