61:1 | | Everything in the heavens and everything in the earth glorifies Allah. He is the Almighty, the All-Wise. | 61:2 | | You who have iman! why do you say what you do not do? | 61:3 | | It is deeply abhorrent to Allah that you should say what you do not do. | 61:4 | | Allah loves those who fight in His Way in ranks like well-built walls. | 61:5 | | Remember when Musa said to his people, ´My people, why do you mistreat me when you know that I am the Messenger of Allah to you?´ So when they deviated, Allah made their hearts deviate. Allah does not guide people who are deviators. | 61:6 | | And when ´Isa son of Maryam said, ´Tribe of Israel, I am the Messenger of Allah to you, confirming the Torah which came before me and giving you the good news of a Messenger after me whose name is Ahmad.´ When he brought them the Clear Signs, they said, ´This is downright magic.´ | 61:7 | | Who could do greater wrong than someone who invents a lie against Allah when he has been called to Islam? Allah does not guide wrongdoing people. | 61:8 | | They desire to extinguish Allah´s Light with their mouths but Allah will perfect His Light, though the kafirun hate it. | 61:9 | | It is He who sent His Messenger with guidance and the Deen of Truth to exalt it over every other deen, though the idolaters hate it. | 61:10 | | You who have iman! shall I direct you to a transaction which will save you from a painful punishment? | 61:11 | | It is to have iman in Allah and His Messenger and do jihad in the Way of Allah with your wealth and your selves. That is better for you if you only knew. | 61:12 | | He will forgive you your wrong actions and admit you into Gardens with rivers flowing under them, and fine dwellings in the Gardens of Eden. That is the Great Victory. | 61:13 | | And other things you love: support from Allah and imminent victory. Give good news to the muminun! | 61:14 | | You who have iman! be helpers of Allah as ´Isa son of Maryam said to the Disciples, ´Who will be my helpers to Allah?´ The Disciples said, ´We will be the helpers of Allah.´ One faction of the tribe of Israel had iman and the other were kafir. So We supported those who had iman against their enemy and they became victorious. |
