The Qur'an
(Koran) - M. H. Shakir |
|
|
| Surah 60
- The Examined One |
In the name of Allah,
the Beneficent, the Merciful.
[60.1] O you
who believe! do not take My enemy
and your enemy for friends: would
you offer them love while they deny
what has come to you of the truth,
driving out the Apostle and
yourselves because you believe in
Allah, your Lord? If you go forth
struggling hard in My path and
seeking My pleasure, would you
manifest love to them? And I know
what you conceal and what you
manifest; and whoever of you does
this, he indeed has gone astray from
the straight path.
[60.2] If they find you, they
will be your enemies, and will
stretch forth towards you their
hands and their tongues with evil,
and they ardently desire that you
may disbelieve.
[60.3] Your relationship
would not profit you, nor your
children on the day of resurrection;
He will decide between you; and
Allah sees what you do.
[60.4] Indeed, there is for
you a good example in Ibrahim and
those with him when they said to
their people: Surely we are clear of
you and of what you serve besides
Allah; we declare ourselves to be
clear of you, and enmity and hatred
have appeared between us and you
forever until you believe in Allah
alone-- but not in what Ibrahim said
to his father: I would certainly ask
forgiveness for you, and I do not
control for you aught from Allah--
Our Lord! on Thee do we rely, and to
Thee do we turn, and to Thee is the
eventual coming:
[60.5] Our Lord! do not make
us a trial for those who disbelieve,
and forgive us, our Lord! surely
Thou art the Mighty, the Wise.
[60.6] Certainly there is for
you in them a good example, for him
who fears Allah and the last day;
and whoever turns back, then surely
Allah is the Self-sufficient, the
Praised.
[60.7] It may be that Allah
will bring about friendship between
you and those whom you hold to be
your enemies among them; and Allah
is Powerful; and Allah is Forgiving,
Merciful.
[60.8] Allah does not forbid
you respecting those who have not
made war against you on account of
(your) religion, and have not driven
you forth from your homes, that you
show them kindness and deal with
them justly; surely Allah loves the
doers of justice.
[60.9] Allah only forbids you
respecting those who made war upon
you on account of (your) religion,
and drove you forth from your homes
and backed up (others) in your
expulsion, that you make friends
with them, and whoever makes friends
with them, these are the unjust.
[60.10] O you who believe!
when believing women come to you
flying, then examine them; Allah
knows best their faith; then if you
find them to be believing women, do
not send them back to the
unbelievers, neither are these
(women) lawful for them, nor are
those (men) lawful for them, and
give them what they have spent; and
no blame attaches to you in marrying
them when you give them their
dowries; and hold not to the ties of
marriage of unbelieving women, and
ask for what you have spent, and you
to them ask for what they have
spent. That is Allah's judgment; He
judges between you, and Allah is
Knowing, Wise.
[60.11] And if anything (out
of the dowries) of your wives has
passed away from you to the
unbelievers, then your turn comes,
give to those whose wives have gone
away the like of what they have
spent, and be careful of (your duty
to) Allah in Whom you believe.
[60.12] O Prophet! when
believing women come to you giving
you a pledge that they will not
associate aught with Allah, and will
not steal, and will not commit
fornication, and will not kill their
children, and will not bring a
calumny which they have forged of
themselves, and will not disobey you
in what is good, accept their
pledge, and ask forgiveness for them
from Allah; surely Allah is
Forgiving, Merciful.
[60.13] O you who believe! do
not make friends with a people with
whom Allah is wroth; indeed they
despair of the hereafter as the
unbelievers despair of those in
tombs. |
