Read Surah Al-Maeda

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

یٰۤاَیُّهَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا لَا تَسْـَٔلُوْا عَنْ اَشْیَآءَ اِنْ تُبْدَ لَكُمْ تَسُؤْكُمْ ۚ وَ اِنْ تَسْـَٔلُوْا عَنْهَا حِیْنَ یُنَزَّلُ الْقُرْاٰنُ تُبْدَ لَكُمْ ؕ عَفَا اللّٰهُ عَنْهَا ؕ وَ اللّٰهُ غَفُوْرٌ حَلِیْمٌ۝۱۰۱

O believers, do not ask about things which, if made known to you, may vex you. But if you ask about them when the Qur´an is being revealed they will be unfolded to you. God has overlooked (your failings) in this (respect), for God is forgiving and forbearing.

قَدْ سَاَلَهَا قَوْمٌ مِّنْ قَبْلِكُمْ ثُمَّ اَصْبَحُوْا بِهَا كٰفِرِیْنَ۝۱۰۲

Such things were asked by a people before you, but they disbelieved them afterwards.

مَا جَعَلَ اللّٰهُ مِنْۢ بَحِیْرَةٍ وَّ لَا سَآىِٕبَةٍ وَّ لَا وَصِیْلَةٍ وَّ لَا حَامٍ ۙ وَّ لٰكِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا یَفْتَرُوْنَ عَلَی اللّٰهِ الْكَذِبَ ؕ وَ اَكْثَرُهُمْ لَا یَعْقِلُوْنَ۝۱۰۳

God has not sanctioned Baheerah or Sa´ibah, Waseelah or Ham. The unbelievers fabricate lies of God, for many of them are devoid of sense.

وَ اِذَا قِیْلَ لَهُمْ تَعَالَوْا اِلٰی مَاۤ اَنْزَلَ اللّٰهُ وَ اِلَی الرَّسُوْلِ قَالُوْا حَسْبُنَا مَا وَجَدْنَا عَلَیْهِ اٰبَآءَنَا ؕ اَوَ لَوْ كَانَ اٰبَآؤُهُمْ لَا یَعْلَمُوْنَ شَیْـًٔا وَّ لَا یَهْتَدُوْنَ۝۱۰۴

When you say to them: "Come to what God has revealed, and the Prophet," they say: "Sufficient to us is the faith that our fathers had followed," even though their fathers had no knowledge or guidance.

یٰۤاَیُّهَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا عَلَیْكُمْ اَنْفُسَكُمْ ۚ لَا یَضُرُّكُمْ مَّنْ ضَلَّ اِذَا اهْتَدَیْتُمْ ؕ اِلَی اللّٰهِ مَرْجِعُكُمْ جَمِیْعًا فَیُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِمَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُوْنَ۝۱۰۵

O you who believe, on you rests (the responsibility) for your own selves. If you follow the right path those who have gone astray will not be able to do you harm. To God have all of you to return, when He will tell you what you were doing.

یٰۤاَیُّهَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا شَهَادَةُ بَیْنِكُمْ اِذَا حَضَرَ اَحَدَكُمُ الْمَوْتُ حِیْنَ الْوَصِیَّةِ اثْنٰنِ ذَوَا عَدْلٍ مِّنْكُمْ اَوْ اٰخَرٰنِ مِنْ غَیْرِكُمْ اِنْ اَنْتُمْ ضَرَبْتُمْ فِی الْاَرْضِ فَاَصَابَتْكُمْ مُّصِیْبَةُ الْمَوْتِ ؕ تَحْبِسُوْنَهُمَا مِنْۢ بَعْدِ الصَّلٰوةِ فَیُقْسِمٰنِ بِاللّٰهِ اِنِ ارْتَبْتُمْ لَا نَشْتَرِیْ بِهٖ ثَمَنًا وَّ لَوْ كَانَ ذَا قُرْبٰی ۙ وَ لَا نَكْتُمُ شَهَادَةَ ۙ اللّٰهِ اِنَّاۤ اِذًا لَّمِنَ الْاٰثِمِیْنَ۝۱۰۶

O you who believe, let two honest men among you be witness when you dictate your last will and testament as (the hour of) death draws near; and if death approaches while you are on a journey, two men other than yours. Detain them after the service of prayer, and if you doubt their word make them swear by God that: "We shall not take a bribe even though it be offered by a near relative, nor hide the testimony of God, for then we shall surely be sinful."

فَاِنْ عُثِرَ عَلٰۤی اَنَّهُمَا اسْتَحَقَّاۤ اِثْمًا فَاٰخَرٰنِ یَقُوْمٰنِ مَقَامَهُمَا مِنَ الَّذِیْنَ اسْتَحَقَّ عَلَیْهِمُ الْاَوْلَیٰنِ فَیُقْسِمٰنِ بِاللّٰهِ لَشَهَادَتُنَاۤ اَحَقُّ مِنْ شَهَادَتِهِمَا وَ مَا اعْتَدَیْنَاۤ ۖؗ اِنَّاۤ اِذًا لَّمِنَ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ۝۱۰۷

If it transpires they have concealed the truth, two of those who are immediately concerned should take their place and swear by God: "Our testimony is truer than theirs. We have stated no more (than the truth), or else we shall be unjust"

ذٰلِكَ اَدْنٰۤی اَنْ یَّاْتُوْا بِالشَّهَادَةِ عَلٰی وَجْهِهَاۤ اَوْ یَخَافُوْۤا اَنْ تُرَدَّ اَیْمَانٌۢ بَعْدَ اَیْمَانِهِمْ ؕ وَ اتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ وَ اسْمَعُوْا ؕ وَ اللّٰهُ لَا یَهْدِی الْقَوْمَ الْفٰسِقِیْنَ۠۝۱۰۸

It is thus likely that men will bear witness rightly, or else fear that their oaths may be disproved by oaths given after them. So fear God, and do not forget that God does not guide the iniquitous.

یَوْمَ یَجْمَعُ اللّٰهُ الرُّسُلَ فَیَقُوْلُ مَا ذَاۤ اُجِبْتُمْ ؕ قَالُوْا لَا عِلْمَ لَنَا ؕ اِنَّكَ اَنْتَ عَلَّامُ الْغُیُوْبِ۝۱۰۹

The day God will gather the apostles and ask: "What answer was made to you?" They will say: "We know not. You alone know the secrets unknown."

اِذْ قَالَ اللّٰهُ یٰعِیْسَی ابْنَ مَرْیَمَ اذْكُرْ نِعْمَتِیْ عَلَیْكَ وَ عَلٰی وَ الِدَتِكَ ۘ اِذْ اَیَّدْتُّكَ بِرُوْحِ الْقُدُسِ ۫ تُكَلِّمُ النَّاسَ فِی الْمَهْدِ وَ كَهْلًا ۚ وَ اِذْ عَلَّمْتُكَ الْكِتٰبَ وَ الْحِكْمَةَ وَ التَّوْرٰىةَ وَ الْاِنْجِیْلَ ۚ وَ اِذْ تَخْلُقُ مِنَ الطِّیْنِ كَهَیْـَٔةِ الطَّیْرِ بِاِذْنِیْ فَتَنْفُخُ فِیْهَا فَتَكُوْنُ طَیْرًۢا بِاِذْنِیْ وَ تُبْرِئُ الْاَكْمَهَ وَ الْاَبْرَصَ بِاِذْنِیْ ۚ وَ اِذْ تُخْرِجُ الْمَوْتٰی بِاِذْنِیْ ۚ وَ اِذْ كَفَفْتُ بَنِیْۤ اِسْرَآءِیْلَ عَنْكَ اِذْ جِئْتَهُمْ بِالْبَیِّنٰتِ فَقَالَ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا مِنْهُمْ اِنْ هٰذَاۤ اِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُّبِیْنٌ۝۱۱۰

And when God will say: "O Jesus, son of Mary, remember the favours I bestowed on you and your mother, and reinforced you with divine grace that you spoke to men when in the cradle, and when in the prime of life; when I taught you the law and the judgement and the Torah and the Gospel; when you formed the state of your people´s destiny out of mire and you breathed (a new spirit) into it, and they rose by My leave; when you healed the blind by My leave, and the leper ; when you put life into the dead by My will; and when I held back the children of Israel from you when you brought to them My signs, and the disbelievers among them said: "Surely these are nothing but pure magic."
