061 : The Ranks
61:1
Whatever is in the heavens and on earth, let it declare the
Praises and Glory of Allah: for He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.
61:2
O ye who believe! Why say ye that which ye do not?
61:3
Grievously odious is it in the sight of Allah that ye say that
which ye do not.
61:4
Truly Allah loves those who fight in His Cause in battle array,
as if they were a solid cemented structure.
61:5
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.
61:6
And remember, Jesus, the son of Mary, said: "O Children of
Israel! I am the messenger of Allah (sent) to you, confirming the 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!"
61:7
Who doth greater wrong than one who invents falsehood against
Allah, even as he is being invited to Islam? And Allah guides not those who do
wrong.
61:8
Their intention is to extinguish Allah's Light (by blowing) with
their mouths: But Allah will complete (the revelation of) His Light, even
though the Unbelievers may detest (it).
61:9
It is He Who has sent His Messenger with Guidance and the
Religion of Truth, that he may proclaim it over all religion, even though
the Pagans may detest (it).
61:10
O ye who believe! Shall I lead you to a bargain that will save
you from a grievous Penalty?-
61:11
That ye believe in Allah and His Messenger, and that ye strive
(your utmost) in the Cause of Allah, with your property and your persons:
That will be best for you, if ye but knew!
61:12
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 Achievement.
61:13
And another (favour will He bestow,) which ye do love,- help
from Allah and a speedy victory. So give the Glad Tidings to the Believers.
61:14
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.
