1. Whatever is in the heavens and on earth, declares the Praises and Glory of
Allah: for He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.
2. O ye who believe! Why say ye that which ye do not?
3. Grievously hateful is it in the sight of Allah that ye say that which ye do
not.
4. Truly Allah loves those who fight in His Cause in battle array, as if they
were a solid cemented structure.
5. And remember, Moses said to his people: "O my people! why do ye vex and
insult me, though ye know that I am the messenger of Allah (sent) to you?" Then
when they went wrong, Allah let their hearts go wrong. For Allah guides not
those who are rebellious transgressors.
6. And remember, Jesus, the son of Mary, said: "O Children of Israel! I am the
messenger of Allah (sent) to you, confirming the Taurāt (Torah) (Law) (which came)
before me, and giving Glad Tidings of a Messenger to come after me, whose name
shall be Ahmad." But when he came to them with Clear Signs, they said, "This is
evident sorcery!"
7. Who doth greater wrong than one who forges falsehood against Allah, even as
he is being invited to Islām? And Allah guides not those who do wrong.
8. Their intention is to extinguish Allah's Light (by blowing) with their
mouths: But Allah will complete His Light, even though the Unbelievers may
detest (it).
9. It is He Who has sent His Messenger with Guidance and the Religion of Truth,
that He make it prevail over all religion, even though the Pagans may detest
(it).
10. O ye who believe! Shall I lead you to a bargain that will save you from a
grievous Chastisement?-
11. That ye believe in Allah and His Messenger, and that ye strive (your utmost)
in the Cause of Allah, with your wealth and your persons: That will be best for
you, if ye but knew!
12. He will forgive you your sins, and admit you to Gardens beneath which Rivers
flow, and to beautiful mansions in Gardens of Eternity: that is indeed the
Supreme Triumph.
13. And another (favor will He bestow,) which ye do love,- help from Allah and a
speedy victory. So give the Glad Tidings to the Believers.
14. O ye who believe! Be ye helpers of Allah: as said Jesus the son of Mary to
the Disciples, "Who will be my helpers to (the work of) Allah?" Said the
Disciples, "We are Allah's helpers!" then a portion of the Children of Israel
believed, and a portion disbelieved: But We gave power to those who believed
against their enemies, and they became the ones that prevailed.
