George Sale rendition of Surah The Ranks, Battle Array(as-Saff)
---
61:1 Whatever is in heaven and in earth celebrateth the praise of God; for He is mighty and wise
61:2 O true believers, why do ye say that which ye do not
61:3 It is most odious in the sight of God, that ye say that which ye do not
61:4 Verily God loveth those who fight for his religion in battle array, as though they were a well compacted building
61:5 Remember when Moses said unto his people, O my people, why do ye injure me; since ye know that I am the apostle of God sent unto you? And when they had deviated from the truth, God made their hearts to deviate from the right way; for God directeth not wicked people
61:6 And when Jesus the Son of Mary said, O children of Israel, verily I am the apostle of God sent unto you, confirming the law which was delivered before me, and bringing good tidings of an apostle who shall come after me, and whose name shall be Ahmed. And when he produced unto them evident miracles, they said, this is manifest sorcery
61:7 But who is more unjust than he who forgeth a lie against God, when he is invited unto Islam? And God directeth not the unjust people
61:8 They seek to extinguish God's light with their mouths: But God will perfect his light, though the infidels be averse thereto
61:9 It is He who hath sent his apostle with the direction, and the religion of truth, that he may exalt the same above every religion, although the idolaters be averse thereto
61:10 O true believers, shall I shew you a merchandize which will deliver you from a painful torment hereafter
61:11 Believe in God and his apostle; and defend God's true religion with your substance, and in your own persons. This will be better for you, if ye knew it
61:12 He will forgive you your sins, and will introduce you into gardens through which rivers flow, and agreeable habitations in gardens of perpetual abode. This will be great felicity
61:13 And ye shall obtain other things which ye desire, namely, assistance from God, and a speedy victory. And do thou bear good tidings to the true believers
61:14 O true believers, be ye the assistants of God; as Jesus the son of Mary said to the apostles, who will be my assistants with respect to God? The apostles answered, we will be the assistants of God. So a part of the children of Israel believed, and a part believed not: But We strengthened those who believed, above their enemy; wherefore they became victorious over them
