Read Surah Al-Baqara

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

وَ اِذْ وٰعَدْنَا مُوْسٰۤی اَرْبَعِیْنَ لَیْلَةً ثُمَّ اتَّخَذْتُمُ الْعِجْلَ مِنْۢ بَعْدِهٖ وَ اَنْتُمْ ظٰلِمُوْنَ۝۵۱

Yet, remember, as We communed with Moses for forty nights you took the calf in his absence (and worshipped it), and you did wrong.

ثُمَّ عَفَوْنَا عَنْكُمْ مِّنْۢ بَعْدِ ذٰلِكَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُوْنَ۝۵۲

Even so, We pardoned you that you may be grateful.

وَ اِذْ اٰتَیْنَا مُوْسَی الْكِتٰبَ وَ الْفُرْقَانَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَهْتَدُوْنَ۝۵۳

Remember, We gave Moses the Book and Discernment of falsehood and truth, that you may be guided.

وَ اِذْ قَالَ مُوْسٰی لِقَوْمِهٖ یٰقَوْمِ اِنَّكُمْ ظَلَمْتُمْ اَنْفُسَكُمْ بِاتِّخَاذِكُمُ الْعِجْلَ فَتُوْبُوْۤا اِلٰی بَارِىِٕكُمْ فَاقْتُلُوْۤا اَنْفُسَكُمْ ؕ ذٰلِكُمْ خَیْرٌ لَّكُمْ عِنْدَ بَارِىِٕكُمْ ؕ فَتَابَ عَلَیْكُمْ ؕ اِنَّهٗ هُوَ التَّوَّابُ الرَّحِیْمُ۝۵۴

Remember, Moses said: "My people, by taking this calf you have done yourselves harm, so now turn to your Creator in repentance, and kill your pride, which is better with your Lord." And (the Lord) softened towards you, for He is all-forgiving and merciful.

وَ اِذْ قُلْتُمْ یٰمُوْسٰی لَنْ نُّؤْمِنَ لَكَ حَتّٰی نَرَی اللّٰهَ جَهْرَةً فَاَخَذَتْكُمُ الصّٰعِقَةُ وَ اَنْتُمْ تَنْظُرُوْنَ۝۵۵

Remember, when you said to Moses: "We shall not believe in you until we see God face to face," lightning struck you as you looked.

ثُمَّ بَعَثْنٰكُمْ مِّنْۢ بَعْدِ مَوْتِكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُوْنَ۝۵۶

Even then We revived you after you had become senseless that you might give thanks;

وَ ظَلَّلْنَا عَلَیْكُمُ الْغَمَامَ وَ اَنْزَلْنَا عَلَیْكُمُ الْمَنَّ وَ السَّلْوٰی ؕ كُلُوْا مِنْ طَیِّبٰتِ مَا رَزَقْنٰكُمْ ؕ وَ مَا ظَلَمُوْنَا وَ لٰكِنْ كَانُوْۤا اَنْفُسَهُمْ یَظْلِمُوْنَ۝۵۷

And made the cloud spread shade over you, and sent for you manna and quails that you may eat of the good things We have made for you. No harm was done to Us, they only harmed themselves.

وَ اِذْ قُلْنَا ادْخُلُوْا هٰذِهِ الْقَرْیَةَ فَكُلُوْا مِنْهَا حَیْثُ شِئْتُمْ رَغَدًا وَّ ادْخُلُوا الْبَابَ سُجَّدًا وَّ قُوْلُوْا حِطَّةٌ نَّغْفِرْ لَكُمْ خَطٰیٰكُمْ ؕ وَ سَنَزِیْدُ الْمُحْسِنِیْنَ۝۵۸

And remember, We said to you: "Enter this city, eat wherever you like, as much as you please, but pass through the gates in humility and say: ´May our sins be forgiven.´ We shall forgive your trespasses and give those who do good abundance.

فَبَدَّلَ الَّذِیْنَ ظَلَمُوْا قَوْلًا غَیْرَ الَّذِیْ قِیْلَ لَهُمْ فَاَنْزَلْنَا عَلَی الَّذِیْنَ ظَلَمُوْا رِجْزًا مِّنَ السَّمَآءِ بِمَا كَانُوْا یَفْسُقُوْنَ۠۝۵۹

But the wicked changed and perverted the word We had spoken to a word distorted, and We sent from heaven retribution on the wicked, for they disobeyed.

وَ اِذِ اسْتَسْقٰی مُوْسٰی لِقَوْمِهٖ فَقُلْنَا اضْرِبْ بِّعَصَاكَ الْحَجَرَ ؕ فَانْفَجَرَتْ مِنْهُ اثْنَتَا عَشْرَةَ عَیْنًا ؕ قَدْ عَلِمَ كُلُّ اُنَاسٍ مَّشْرَبَهُمْ ؕ كُلُوْا وَ اشْرَبُوْا مِنْ رِّزْقِ اللّٰهِ وَ لَا تَعْثَوْا فِی الْاَرْضِ مُفْسِدِیْنَ۝۶۰

And remember, when Moses asked for water for his people, We told him to strike the rock with his staff, and behold, twelve springs of gushing water gushed forth so that each of the tribes came to know its place of drinking. Eat and drink, (enjoy) God´s gifts, and spread no discord in the land.
