4:1  O you the humankind! Revere your Lord who created you from one soul and created from it its pair and disseminated from both of them many men and women and revere Allah by Whom you ask one another and [revere] the blood ties. Truly Allah is indeed All-watchful over you.

4:2  And give the orphans their properties and do not replace the good with the bad and do not syphon off their properties into your properties. Truly that indeed is a fraud most enormous.

4:3  But if you have concerns that you might not act equitably towards the orphan [girls] then marry whatever is good for you from the women, two or three or four. And if you are concerned that you may not be able to deal justly [among them] then one or those that your right hands possess. In that case it is more likely for you to not fall in utmost difficulty.

4:4  And give the women their dowries as a happy gift but if they, out of the pleasure of their own heart, forego a portion of it for you, then eat it with gratulation and delectation.

4:5  And do not give the weak minded your property of which Allah has made you a superintendent but provide for them from it and clothe them and say unto them a kindly word.

4:6  And you test the orphans until when they attain the age of marriage so when you sense from them maturity of mind, then give unto them their properties and do not eat it out of wastefulness and out of haste lest they come of age. And whosoever is well to do, then he should abstain [from it] but whoever is needy, let him eat in a kindly manner. And when you give unto them their properties, then make witnesses over it and Allah is All-sufficient as a reckoner of accounts.

4:7  For men there is a share from that which the parents and the near of kin have left in heritage and for women there is a share from that which the parents and the near of kin have left in heritage, from what is small in it or what is numerous; a share prescribed.

4:8  And when the apportioning [of the heritage] is attended by those near of kin and the orphans and the poor then give them a provision out of it and speak unto them a kindly word.

4:9  And let them have deference if they themselves were to leave behind them progenies who were weak, so that they feel concerned on their account. Therefore let them revere Allah and let them say a word which is strict.

4:10  Truly those who consume the properties of the orphans wrongfully, they but consume in their bellies a fire and they will soon burn in a blazing fire.

4:11  Allah lays the following ordinance upon you with regards to your children. For a male child there is the equal of the share of the two females. But if there are women more than two, then for them is the two thirds of that he bequeathed. But if there is just one [daughter], then for her is the half. And for his parents, for each of them there is one-sixth of that he bequeathed if he happens to have a male child. But if he does not have a male child and his parents both inherit him, then unto his mother is the one third. And if there are brothers for him, then his mother is entitled to the sixth; after any bequest he might have made or a debt [he might have incurred]. Your parents and your children you do not know which of them is closer to you in benefit. An ordinance from Allah. Truly Allah indeed is All-knowing, All-wise.

4:12  And for you is half of that which your wives bequeathed if they have no child but if they have one or more children, then for you is the quarter of that which they [wives] bequeathed; after any bequest they might have made or any debt [they might have incurred]. And for them [the wives] is the quarter of what you have bequeathed if you have no child but if you have [one or more] children, then for them [wives] is one eights from what you bequeathed; after any bequest you might have made or debt [you might have incurred]. But if there is man or a women inherited with a Kalala [an individual with no direct progeny and no direct parents] while he has a brother or sister then for each of them is one-sixth and if they are more than that [two], then they are partners in one third; after any bequest he might have made or any debt [he might have incurred] not seeking any unfair dealing; a testament from Allah and Allah is All-knowing, All-magnanimous.

4:13  Those are the boundaries of Allah and whoever obeys Allah and His messenger, He will make him enter gardens beneath which the rivers flow to abide therein forever and that is the success the most magnificent.

4:14  And whoever disobeys Allah and His messenger and transgresses against His boundaries, He will make him enter a fire to abide therein forever and for him there will be a humiliating punishment.

4:15  And as for those from among your women who commit the sexual offence, call then about them four witnesses from among you. If they bear witness [to the offence], then hold them in the houses until the death takes them or until Allah makes a way out for them.

4:16  And as for the two among you who commit it [sexual offence] then hurt both of them. But if they repent and reform, then leave the two of them alone. Truly Allah indeed is Acceptor of repentance, All-merciful.

4:17  The acceptance of repentance rests upon Allah only for those who commit the wrongful act out of ignorance then they repent shortly after; as for them Allah accepts the repentance and Allah indeed is All-knowing, All-wise.

4:18  Acceptance of the repentance is not for those who perpetrate wrongful acts up till when the death comes upon one of them; then he says, “I indeed repent now” and nor for those who die while they are disbelievers. They it is for whom We have kept in store a painful punishment.

4:19  O you who believe! It is not permissible for you that you should inherit the women against their will nor [is it permissible for you] that you hold them back maliciously so that you may take away some of that you have given them unless they are found guilty of an evident sexual offence. And associate with them in a kindly manner. But if you hate them perhaps you hate something wherein Allah may put a lot of good.

4:20  And if you want to take one wife in the place of another and you had already given one of them a great amount of wealth, then do not take anything from it. What! Will you take it with slander and with a sin most evident?

4:21  And how can you take it when indeed you have yielded unto one another and they [women] had taken with you a binding covenant?

4:22  And do not marry those which your fathers had married from among the women except that which has already gone by. Truly that indeed is a great offence and a despicable act and a way most abominable.

4:23  Forbidden unto you [in marriage] are your mothers and your daughters and your sisters and your aunts paternal and your aunts maternal and your brother’s daughters and your sister’s daughters and your nurse mothers and your nurse sisters and the mothers of your wives and your stepdaughters who are in your care from your wives with whom you have consummated marriage; but if you have not consummated marriage with them then there is no sin upon you; and the wives of your sons who are from your loins and for you to marry two sisters at the same time except that which has already gone by. Truly Allah is Oft-Forgiving, All-merciful.

4:24  And all those who are within the wedlock’s from among the women except ones that your right hands possess; ordinance of Allah upon you. And it is made lawful for you all that is beyond that, that you seek it with your wealth as those who are chaste not as those who are fornicators. But whoever you enjoyed with from among them, then give them their rewards as prescribed dowries and there is no restriction upon you about anything that you may exchange out of mutual agreement after the prescribed dowry. Truly Allah is All-knowing, All-wise.

4:25  But whoever among you is not able to have the means of marrying the free believing women, then [they can marry] from those that your right hands possess from the believing maidens. And Allah is All-knowing about your belief; some of you from the others; therefore marry them by the permission of their masters and give them their rewards in a kindly manner as chaste women not as fornicators nor as those who take secret lovers and once they have come into the wedlock, if they commit a sexual offence, then upon them is half of the punishment that is upon a free married women. This is only for those among you who fear a sexual urge and if you be patient that is better for you and Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

4:26  Allah intends to make clear for you and [intends] to guide you to the ways of those who were before you and [intends] to accept your repentance. And Allah is All-knowing, All-wise.

4:27  And Allah intends to accept your repentance but those who follow the vain desires wants you to digress a great digression.

4:28  Allah intends to alleviate your burden for you and the human being is created weak.

4:29  O you who believe! Do not consume your properties among you falsely unless it be a commerce out of mutual consent and do not kill yourselves. Truly Allah is All-merciful to you.

4:30  And whoever does that out of transgression and wrongfulness, We will soon make him burn in fire and that is easy for Allah.

4:31  If you keep away from the major sins of which you are forbidden, then We will get you rid of your ills and make you enter a most graceful entrance.

4:32  And do not covet that by which Allah has favored some of you over the others. For the men is a share from that which they have earned and for the women is a share from that which they have earned and ask Allah from His favor. Truly Allah is All-knowing about everything.

4:33  And for each one We have appointed heirs for that which the parents and the near of kin have bequeathed. And those with whom you have a solemn pledge of allegiance, do give them their share. Truly Allah is All-witnessing over everything.

4:34  The men are put in charge over the women because Allah has favored some of them above the others and because they spend from their properties. But the righteous women are those who are devout, who guard zealously the private intimacy because Allah has guarded [it]. But those women from whom you fear their arrogant behaviour, admonish them and then part company from them in the beds and then mate them intimately. And if they obey you, then do not seek a way against them. Truly Allah is All-high, All-grandiose.

4:35  And if you fear a breach between the two of them, then appoint an umpire from his folk and an umpire from her folk. If they two truly intend reconciliation then Allah will reconcile between the two of them. Truly Allah is All-knowing, All-acquainted.

4:36  And serve Allah and do not ascribe anything as a partner to Him and kindness to the parents and to the near of kin and to the orphans and to the needy ones and to the neighbour who is a near of kin and to the neighbour who is not a blood relation and to the companion who lives by your side and to the wayfarer and to those that your rights hands possess. Truly Allah does not love anyone who is indeed self-conceited, boastful.

4:37  Those, they are the ones who hold back what they possess and exhort the people unto the stinginess and they hide that which Allah has given them from His bounty and indeed We have made ready for the disbelievers a punishment most humiliating.

4:38  And those who spend their wealth out of show to the people while they do not believe in Allah nor in the last day and whoever has Satan as partner, what a woeful partner he has.

4:39  And what is wrong for them had they believed in Allah and in the last day and had spent from that which Allah had provided for them. And Allah indeed is All-knowing about them.

4:40  Truly Allah does not cheat of the weight of an atom and if it was a good deed, He multiplies it and gives from His presence a reward most magnificent.

4:41  How then will they fare when We bring from every nation a witness and We bring you [O Muhammad] as a witness over these.

4:42  On that day those who had disbelieved and had disobeyed the messenger will wish that they were made level with the earth and that they had not sought to hide any secret discourse from Allah.

4:43  O you who believe! Do not approach the prayer while you are drunk until you know what you are saying nor in a state of ritual impurity - unless when you are on a journey - until you take your ritual bath. And if you are sick or on a journey or one of you came from fulfilling the call of nature or you have touched with intimacy the women and you did not find water, then make a dry ablution by touching clean dust and then rub it against your faces and against your arms. Truly Allah indeed is oft-pardoning, Oft-Forgiving.

4:44  Have you not seen those who are given a share from the book, they purchase the misguidance and they intend to make you go astray from the way.

4:45  But Allah is All-knowing about your enemies and All-sufficient is Allah as an ally and All-sufficient is Allah as a helper.

4:46  From those who have embraced Judaism, they alter the words from their proper context and they say, “We hear but we disobey" and, "hear but cannot be made to hear" and, "watch over us” twisting with their tongues and striking a blow at the religion. If only they had said, “We heard and we obeyed" and, "hear and look at us” it would surely have been better for them and more upright but Allah has cursed them because of their disbelief so they will not believe except a little.

4:47  O you who are given the scripture! Believe in that which We have sent down, testifying to that which was with you, before We strike some faces and We twist them hind wise or We curse them as We cursed the violators of the Sabbath and indeed Allah’s command is a thing that must come to pass.

4:48  Truly Allah does not forgive that anyone ascribe a partner unto Him but He forgives whatever is besides that to whoever He pleases and whoever ascribes a partner to Allah, he indeed has contrived a sin most awful.

4:49  Have you not seen those who claim their own souls to be sanctimonious. Nay! It is Allah who sanctifies anyone that He pleases and they will not be cheated of the size of a thread.

4:50  Look at how they contrive the lie against Allah and that suffices as a sin most evident.

4:51  Have you not seen those who are given a share from the book, they believe in the carved idols and in the evil transgressor and they say for those who disbelieve, “These are better guided in the way than those who believe.”

4:52  It is they whom Allah has cursed and whoever Allah curses, you will never find a helper for him.

4:53  Or have they a share in the dominion? Then surely they will not give people even the skin of a date-stone.

4:54  Or do they envy people over that which Allah has given them from His bounty? We indeed have given the family of Abraham the book and the wisdom and We gave them a kingdom most magnificent.

4:55  But among them are those who believe in it and among them are those who turned away from it and the hell suffices as a blazing fire.

4:56  Truly those who disbelieve in Our signs, in time We will make them burn in a fire. Every time that their skins get cooked, We will replace them with another skin so that they may taste the punishment. Truly Allah indeed is All-mighty, All-wise.

4:57  And as for those who believe and work the righteous deeds, We will soon make them enter into gardens beneath which the rivers flow to abide therein forever. For them therein will be spouses that are pure and We will make them enter under a shade most ample.

4:58  Truly Allah commands you that you give all the trusts to their rightful owners and when you judge between people that you judge with justice. Truly how excellent is that which Allah admonishes you thereby. Truly Allah indeed is All-hearing, All-seeing.

4:59  O you who believe! Obey Allah and obey the messenger and the people of the commandment among you. But if you disagree about anything, then refer it back to Allah and to the messenger if you indeed believe in Allah and in the last day. That is better and most excellent in interpretation.

4:60  Have you not seen those who claim that they believe in that which has been sent down unto you and in that which was sent before you? They intend to go for adjudication to the evil transgressor even though they have been commanded to disbelieve in it but Satan wants to misguide them a misguidance far removed.

4:61  And when it is said unto them, “Come unto what Allah has sent down and unto the messenger” you see the hypocrites turning away from you [O Muhammad] completely.

4:62  But then how will it fare with them when a calamity befalls them because of that which their hands have put forth, then they will come to you swearing by Allah [saying] “We intended nothing except excellence and congruity.”

4:63  It is they whom Allah knows all what is in their hearts so turn away from them and admonish them and tell them about themselves a word most penetrating.

4:64  And We have sent no messenger except that he should be obeyed by the leave of Allah. And if only that when they had wronged their own souls, they came to you and they asked Allah for forgiveness and the messenger asked forgiveness for them, then they will surely find Allah Acceptor of repentance, Most Merciful.

4:65  But nay by your Lord, they will not truly believe until they make you an arbitrator in all the matters that arise between them and thereafter they do not feel any constriction within themselves because of the decision you made and they submit a complete submission.

4:66  And if We were to prescribe upon them that you kill yourselves or that you go forth from your homes, they will not do it except a very few among them. But if only they did what they were admonished to, then surely that would have been better for them and greater in strengthening them.

4:67  So then We would have given them from Our own presence a reward most magnificent.

4:68  And surely We would have guided them to a way most upright.

4:69  And whoever obeys Allah and the messenger, he indeed will be with those whom Allah has bestowed His blessing on, from the prophets and from the truthful ones and from the witnesses and from the righteous and how excellent are those as a company.

4:70  That is the favor from Allah and it suffices that Allah is All-knowing.

4:71  O you who believe! Take your precaution and go forth in small bands or go forth all together.

4:72  And among you are surely those who linger behind so that if a calamity were to overtake you, he will say, “Indeed Allah has been gracious to me since I was not present with them.”

4:73  But if a favor was to visit you from Allah, then he would surely have said as though there had never been any affection between you and him, “O! I wish if I was with them, I would have made an achievement most magnificent.”

4:74  Therefore let all those who sell the life of this world for the life of hereafter fight in the way of Allah. And whoever fights in the way of Allah, either he gets killed or he overcomes, then in time We will give him a reward most magnificent.

4:75  And what is the matter with you that you do not fight in the way of Allah when [there are] the oppressed ones from the men and from the women and from the children those who say, “O our Lord! Get us out of this township whose owners are wrongful and appoint for us from Your own presence an ally and appoint for us from Your own presence a helper.”

4:76  Those who truly believe it is they who fight in the way of Allah and those who disbelieve, it is they who fight in the way of the evil transgressor so fight the allies of Satan. Truly the plan of Satan indeed is weak.

4:77  Have you not seen those unto whom it was said, “Hold back your hands and establish the prayer and give out the sanctifying dues.” But when the fighting was prescribed on them Lo! A party of them have deference for men as much as they have deference for Allah or even a greater deference and they said, “O our Lord! Why have you prescribed fighting on us? If only you can give us respite till a term nearby.” Say, “The enjoyment of this world is little and the hereafter is better for one who safeguards his own soul and you will not be cheated the size of a thread.”

4:78  Wherever you may be, the death will overtake you even if you were in towers raised aloft. And when a good thing happens to them, they said, “This is from the presence of Allah” and when an evil happens to them they said, “This is from your side” Say, “All is from the presence of Allah” Why is it that these people almost do not comprehend any discourse.

4:79  Whatever happens to you of good is surely from Allah and whatever happens to you from evil, then it is from your own soul and We have sent you as a messenger for the mankind and it suffices that Allah is All-witnessing.

4:80  Whoever obeys the messenger, then he indeed has obeyed Allah and whoever turns away, then We have not sent you as a guardian over them.

4:81  And they say, “We obey” But when they go out from your presence, a party of them will deliberate over the night other than what you had said and Allah writes all that they deliberate over the night. So turn away from them and put your trust in Allah and it is sufficient that Allah is All-trustworthy.

4:82  Do they not deliberate over the Quran? Had it been from any other than Allah, they would have surely found in it many discrepancies.

4:83  And when a matter of the safety or the fear comes to them, they spread it. If only they refer it back to the messenger and to the people of commandment among them then certainly those among them who are given the insight would have known it. Were it not for the favor of Allah and His mercy upon you, then you would surely followed Satan except a few.

4:84  Fight then in the way of Allah and let no one be taken to task except your own self but encourage the believers perhaps Allah will curb the might of those who disbelieve and Allah is greater in might and greater in punishment.

4:85  Whoever admonishes a goodly admonishing, there will be a share for him from it and whoever admonishes an evil admonishing, there will be a load in it for him and truly Allah is All nourisher of everything.

4:86  And whenever you are greeted with a greeting, then greet with what is better than it or reply with the same. Truly Allah is All-reckoning over everything.

4:87  Allah! There is no deity save He. Surely He will gather you unto the day of resurrection; there is no doubt in it. And who is truer than Allah in discourse?

4:88  What is the matter with you that you are divided into two parties concerning the hypocrites; when Allah has caused them to slip back because of what they had perpetrated. Do you want to guide whom Allah has caused to go astray and whoever Allah has caused to go astray, then you will never find a way for him.

4:89  They wish if you would disbelieve as they have disbelieved so that you become equal. Therefore take not from them any allies until they migrate in the way of Allah. But if they turn away, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them and do not take from them any ally or any helper.

4:90  Except those who have ties to a people between whom and you there is a pact of peace or when they come to you, their bosoms felt constricted to fight you or fight their own people. But if Allah had so willed, He will surely have set them over you and then they would have surely fought you. So if they keep aloof from you and have not fought you and offer the peace to you, then Allah has made for you no way against them.

4:91  You will find others who want to be safe from you and be safe from their own people but whenever they are turned back to the dissension, they get bogged down in it. So if they do not keep aloof from you and do not offer you the peace and do not hold their hands back, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them. And it is those over whom We have given you an authority most evident.

4:92  It is not for a believer to kill a believer except by mistake and whoever kills a believer by mistake then he must free a believing slave and pay the blood-money to his family unless they forego it as charity. But if [the killed] was from a people who are an enemy unto you and he is a believer then a believing slave must be freed and if he is from a people between you and them there is a pact, then the blood-money must be paid to the family and a believing slave must be freed. But whoever cannot find the means, then he must fast two consecutive months by way of repentance from Allah. And Allah indeed is All-knowing, All-wise.

4:93  But whoever kills a believer deliberately, then his reward is hellfire to abide therein forever and Allah is angry with him and He has cursed him and He has kept in store for him a punishment most awful.

4:94  O you who believe! When you set forth in the way of Allah, then be circumspect and do not say unto anyone who offers you a greeting of peace, “you are not a believer” Thus you are seeking the fleeting gain of the life of this world however with Allah lies ample gains. Thus you were before [Islam] and Allah has visited you with His favor therefore be circumspect. Truly Allah indeed is All-acquainted with all that you do.

4:95  They are not equal, those among the believers who remain sitting – other than those who are handicapped – and those who strive in the way of Allah with their wealth and their lives. Allah has raised in ranks those who strive with their wealth and their lives over those who sit at home. However Allah’s good promise is for all but Allah does raise those who strive over those who remain sitting with a reward most magnificent.

4:96  Ranks from Him and forgiveness and mercy and truly Allah is Oft-Forgiving, All-merciful.

4:97  Truly those, whose souls are taken by the angels while they wrong themselves, they [angels] will say unto them, “In what condition were you?” They will say, “We used to be oppressed in the land.” They will say unto them, “Was Allah’s land not broad so that you may migrate therein?” Indeed those, their abode is the hellfire and what a woeful place of ending;

4:98  exempted are those oppressed from among the men and the women and the children who cannot find any means nor can find any way out.

4:99  As for those, perhaps Allah will pardon them and Allah is indeed oft-pardoning, Oft-Forgiving.

4:100  And whoever migrates in the way of Allah, he will find in the earth many places of refuge and much abundance and whoever goes forth from his house as a migrant towards Allah and His messenger but then the death overtakes him, then indeed his reward gets binding upon Allah and Allah indeed is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

4:101  And when you travel in the earth, then there is no restriction on you that you shorten your prayer if you have reason to fear that those who disbelieve will cause you tribulation. Truly disbelievers indeed are for you an enemy most evident.

4:102  And if you [O Muhammad] are among them and you establish the prayer for them then let a party from among them stand with you [in prayer] and let them take up their weapons and once they have done their prostration, then let them fallback behind you and let another party come forward who has not yet prayed and let them pray with you and let all of them take their precaution and take their weapons. Those who disbelieve wish if only you were unmindful about your weapons and your belongings, so that they could swoop down on you in one attack. But there is no restriction on you to put down your weapons if there is hurt for you from rain or that you are sick but take your precaution. Truly Allah has kept in store for disbelievers a punishment most humiliating.

4:103  And once you are done with the prayer then remember Allah standing or sitting or on your sides. But once you find rest then establish the prayer. Truly the prayer is a time-bound prescription upon the believers.

4:104  And do not relent in pursuing the [disbelieving] people for if you get pain, they also get pain as you get pain but you expect from Allah what they expect not and truly Allah is All-knowing, All-wise.

4:105  Truly We have sent down to you the book by the truth so that you may arbitrate between people by that which Allah has shown you and be not a contender for the betrayers.

4:106  and ask forgiveness from Allah. Truly Allah indeed is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

4:107  And do not argue on behalf of those who cheat their own selves. Truly Allah does not love whoever is indeed treacherous, sinful.

4:108  They hide from people - while they cannot hide from Allah - for He is with them when they deliberate at night such words that He does not please and Allah is indeed All-encompassing around all that they do.

4:109  Here you are arguing on their behalf in the life of this world. But who will argue with Allah on their behalf on the day of resurrection or who will be a trustee over them.

4:110  As for anyone who commits an evil deed or wrongs his own soul, but then he asks forgiveness from Allah, he will find Allah Oft-Forgiving, All-merciful.

4:111  And whoever perpetrates a sin, he but perpetrates it against his own soul and Allah indeed is All-knowing, All-wise.

4:112  But whoever commits an error or a sin but thereafter accuse an innocent with it, then he indeed has taken upon himself an opprobrium and a sin most evident.

4:113  And had it not been for a favor of Allah and His mercy on you, surely a party of them would have intended to lead you astray but they will lead astray none except themselves nor will they harm you in the least. And Allah has sent down the book and the wisdom on you and has taught you that which you knew not and indeed Allah’s favor on you is most magnificent.

4:114  There is no good in much of their secret counsels except one who commands to charity or to kindness or to reconciliation between the people and whoever does that for the pursuit of Allah’s good pleasure, We will in time give him a reward most magnificent.

4:115  But whoever rises against the messenger after that the guidance has become evident to him and follow other than the way of the believers, We will make him commit himself unto that which he has committed himself and then We will make him burn in the hellfire and what a woeful place of ending.

4:116  Truly Allah does not forgive that anyone ascribes a partner to Him but He forgives anything besides that for whom He pleases and whoever ascribes partners to Allah, he indeed has gone far astray.

4:117  They are calling besides Him none other than females and they are calling none other than Satan the recalcitrant.

4:118  Allah cursed him and he said, “I will surely take from Your slaves a share well determined

4:119  and I will surely misguide them and I will surely fill them with wishful thoughts and I will surely command them so that they will cut the ears of the cattle and I will surely command them so that they will change the creation of Allah.” And whoever takes Satan as an ally instead of Allah, he has then indeed incurred a loss most evident.

4:120  He makes them promises and fills them with wishful thoughts but Satan promises them nothing except delusion.

4:121  Those, their resting place will be hell and they will find no place of escape from it.

4:122  As for those who believe and work the righteous deeds, We will soon make them enter gardens beneath which the rivers flow to abide therein forever. Allah’s true promise and who is more veridical than Allah in utterance.

4:123  It is not according to your wishful thoughts nor according to the wishful thoughts of the people of the scripture. Whoever does any evil deed, he will be paid for it and he will find for himself no ally and no helper besides Allah

4:124  and whoever works from the righteous deeds, whether a male or a female, while he is a believer, it is those who will enter the paradise and they will not be cheated the skin of a date-stone.

4:125  Who is more excellent in religion than one who has submitted his whole being to Allah while he acts with excellence and he followed the way of Abraham sincerely devoted himself to Allah and Allah took Abraham as an intimate friend.

4:126  For Allah is all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth and Allah indeed is All-circumscribing over everything.

4:127  They inquire from you with regards to the women. Say, “Allah gives you an answer regarding them” and that which is rehearsed unto you in the book regarding the orphan women who you do not give them that which is prescribed for them but yet you desire to marry them. And with regards to those who are minors from among the children and that you stand in uprightness regarding the orphans. And whatever good you do, then truly Allah indeed is All-knowing about it.

4:128  But if a woman has reason to fear from her husband arrogance or disregard, then there is no restriction on both of them that they make a compromise between the two of them and the reconciliation is better but the souls are conjoined with the selfishness but if you act in excellence and you revere Allah, truly Allah is All-acquainted with all that you do.

4:129  And you will never be able to deal with complete justice between the wives as much as you may like it but however do not swerve a complete swerving leaving her like a thing in suspense but if you act with righteousness and revere Allah, then truly Allah is indeed Oft-Forgiving, All-merciful.

4:130  But if the two separate, Allah will sufficiently provide for each of them from His abundance and Allah indeed is All-encompassing, All-wise.

4:131  And for Allah is all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. And We indeed had decreed for those who were given the book before you and for you as well that you should revere Allah but if you disbelieve, then for Allah is all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth and truly Allah is All-self-sufficient, All-praise-worthy.

4:132  For Allah is all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth and Allah is sufficient as a trustee.

4:133  If He pleases, He can make you go O you the mankind and bring others and Allah indeed is All-powerful to do that.

4:134  Whoever seeks the reward of this world indeed with Allah is the reward of this world and of the hereafter and truly Allah is All-hearing, All-seeing.

4:135  O you who believe! Be those who stand in uprightness as witnesses for Allah even though it be against your own selves or the parents or the near of kin; if he be well-to-do or poor, and Allah has more claim to both of them. Therefore do not follow the vain desire for not being just but if you swerve or turn away, then truly Allah is All-acquainted with all that you do.

4:136  O you who have believed! Believe in Allah and in His messenger and in the scripture which He sent down on His messenger and in the book which He sent down before. And whoever disbelieves in Allah and in His angels and in His books and in His messengers and in the last day, then he indeed has gone far astray.

4:137  Truly those who believed and then disbelieved and then believed and then disbelieved and then increased in disbelief, it is not for Allah to forgive them nor is it for Him to guide them to a way.

4:138  Give the glad tidings to the hypocrites that indeed for them there will be a painful punishment.

4:139  They who take the disbelievers as allies instead of the believers, are they seeking from them the might, then truly the might all together is for Allah.

4:140  And He has indeed revealed unto you in the book that when you hear Allah’s signs being denied and being derided, then do not sit with them until they engage in a discourse other than that; otherwise then you will be like them. Truly Allah is going to gather the hypocrites and the disbelievers all together in hellfire.

4:141  Those who wait for opportunities with regards to you so when there is a victory for you from Allah, they will say, “Were we not with you?” But when there is a little fortune for the disbelievers, then they will say [to the disbelievers] “Have we not prevailed with you and protected you from the believers?” Then Allah will judge between you on the day of resurrection and Allah will never make a way for the disbelievers against the believers.

4:142  Truly the hypocrites, they try to beguile Allah but it is He who is going to beguile them and when they stand for prayer, they stand lazily showing off to men and they do not remember Allah except a little

4:143  wavering in between this; neither belonging to these ones nor belonging to those ones and whoever Allah misguides, then you will never find a way for him.

4:144  O you who believe! Do not take the disbelievers as allies instead of the believers. Do you want to give Allah against yourselves an authority most evident?

4:145  Truly the hypocrites will be in the lowest ranks in the hellfire and you will never find for them any helper.

4:146  Except those who repent and they act in righteousness and they seek refuge with Allah and they make their religion sincere for Allah, then those are with the believers and in time Allah will give the believers a reward most magnificent.

4:147  What will Allah do with punishing you if you offer gratitude and if you believe and Allah indeed is All-grateful, All-knowing.

4:148  Allah does not love an evil word to be pronounced openly except in the case of one who has been wronged and truly Allah is All-hearing, All-knowing.

4:149  If you make a good deed public or you hide it or you forego an evil deed, then truly Allah is Oft-pardoning, All-powerful.

4:150  Truly those who disbelieve in Allah and in His messengers and they intend to discriminate between Allah and His messengers and they say, “We believe in some and disbelieve in others” and they intend to find a way in between that.

4:151  It is they who are truly the disbelievers and We have kept in store for the disbelievers a punishment most humiliating.

4:152  As for those who believe in Allah and in His messengers and have not discriminated between any of them, those are the ones to whom in time, He will give them their rewards and Allah indeed is Oft-Forgiving, All-merciful.

4:153  The people of the scripture ask you that you should cause a book to come upon them from the heaven but they did ask Moses more than that for they said, “Show us Allah openly” Then the thunderbolt seized them because of their wrongdoing. Then they took the calf [for worship] after that the clear signs had come to them and We pardoned that and We gave unto Moses an authority most evident.

4:154  And We raised over them the mountain by virtue of their covenant and We said unto them, “Enter the door prostrate” and We told them, “Do not transgress the Sabbath” and We took from them a solemn covenant.

4:155  Due to their violation of their covenant and their disbelieving in the signs of Allah and their killing of the prophets without any right and their saying that ”Our hearts are filled to brim. Nay! Allah has put a seal on it because of their disbelief so they will not believe except for a little

4:156  and because of their disbelief and their saying against Mary a calumny most awful.

4:157  and because of their saying that, “We indeed killed the Messiah Jesus son of Mary, Messenger of Allah” They did not kill him nor did they crucify him but his likeness was caused to appear to them and truly those who disagree about him are surely in incredulity about it. There is no knowledge for them about it except following the conjecture and they did not kill him for certain.

4:158  Nay! Allah raised him unto Himself and Allah indeed is All-mighty All-wise.

4:159  And there is none among the people of the book except that he surely will believe in him before his death. And on the day of the resurrection, he will be a witness over them.

4:160  Because of wrongdoing from those who adhered to Judaism, We made unlawful over them many good things which had been made lawful for them and because of their hindering from the way of Allah a lot.

4:161  and [because of] their taking the usury even though they had been indeed forbidden from it and their eating the properties of people in falsehood and We have kept in store for the disbelievers among them a painful punishment.

4:162  But those who are established in the knowledge from among them and the believers who believe in that what has been sent down unto you and what has been sent down before you and those who are constant in establishing the prayer and those who pay the sanctifying dues and those who believe in Allah and in the last day, it is they to whom We will soon give a reward most magnificent.

4:163  We indeed have revealed unto you in the same manner We revealed unto Noah and unto the prophets after him and We revealed unto Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob and the tribes and Jesus and Job and Jonah and Aaron and Solomon and We gave to David the psalms

4:164  and there are messengers which We did indeed mention to you before and messengers which We have not mentioned to you and Allah spoke to Moses utterly.

4:165  Messengers who bring glad tidings and bring warnings so that there is no argument for men against Allah after the messengers, and Allah indeed is All-mighty, All-wise.

4:166  But Allah bears witness that what He sent down to you, He sent it down through His knowledge and the angels bear witness and Allah is sufficient as All-witnessing.

4:167  Truly those who disbelieved and they hindered from the way of Allah, they have indeed gone far astray.

4:168  Indeed those who disbelieved and they did wrong, it is not for Allah to forgive them nor is it for Him to guide them to any road.

4:169  Except the road to hellfire to abide therein forever and that indeed is easy for Allah.

4:170  O you the mankind! The messenger has indeed come to you with the truth from your Lord. Therefore believe! It is better for you. But if you disbelieve, then for Allah is all that is in the heavens and in the earth and Allah is indeed All-knowing, All-wise.

4:171  O people of the book! Commit no excessiveness in your religion nor say about Allah except the truth. The Messiah Jesus son of Mary is but a messenger of Allah and His word that He delivered to Mary and [he is] a spirit from Him. Therefore believe in Allah and in His messengers and do not say, “three” [Trinity]. Desist. It is better for you. Allah is but one God. All-glorified is He that there should be a son for Him. For Him is all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth and Allah suffices as a trustee.

4:172  The Messiah will never take exceptions at being a servant for Allah nor will the angels who are drawn near [to Allah] and whoever takes exceptions at serving Him and grows arrogant, He will soon gather them altogether unto Him.

4:173  But as for those who believed and did righteous deeds, He will give them their rewards in full and will increase them from His favor and as for those who took exceptions at serving Him and grew arrogant, He will punish them with a painful punishment and they will not find for them besides Allah any ally or any helper.

4:174  O you the mankind! A proof has indeed come to you from your Lord and We have sent down unto you a light most evident.

4:175  As for those who believed in Allah and held fast unto Him, He will soon make them enter in a mercy from Him and in a favor and He will guide them unto Him [through] a path most upright.

4:176  They ask you for a response say, “Allah responds to you in the matter of Kalala [A person with no progeny and no immediate parents]” If a person dies and there is no child for him but there is a sister, half of what he leaves is for her but he inherits her [in full] if she has no child. If there are two sisters, two thirds of what he leaves is for them and if there were brethren men and women then for one male is the share of two females. Thus Allah makes clear for you lest you go astray and Allah is All-knowing about everything.
