6:1
The praise is for Allah, He who created the heavens and the earth and He caused the darknesses to be and the light. However those who disbelieve attribute peers to their Lord.
6:2
He it is who created you from clay then He decreed a definite term yet there is another appointed term in His presence but after all this here you are in confusion..
6:3
He it is Allah in the heavens and in the earth. He knows your secret affairs and your open affairs and He knows all that you earn.
6:4
And not a sign from their Lord’s signs came unto them except that they used to turn away from it in arrogance.
6:5
And indeed they belied the truth when it came unto them and in time the news of all that which they used to deride will come unto them.
6:6
Do they not see how many a generation before them We destroyed? We instated established them in the land to a degree that We have not instated established you and We sent rain upon them from the heaven in torrents and We caused the rivers to flow beneath them but then We destroyed them for their sins and We raised after them another generation.
6:7
And had We sent down on you [O Muhammad] a book on a paper and they could touch it with their own hands, surely those who disbelieve would say, “This is nothing but magic most evident.”
6:8
And they say, “If only an angel was sent down on him” But if We had sent down an angel, then surely the matter would have been decreed and thereafter they will not be given a respite.
6:9
And if We had made him an angel, We surely would have made him a man and We surely would have dressed him in that which they dress.
6:10
And indeed prophets were derided before you. But those who mocked at them were overwhelmed by that which they used to deride with.
6:11
Say, “Go about in the earth then look at how was the ending of the beliers.”
6:12
Say, “For whom is all that is in the heavens and in the earth?” Say, “For Allah” He has written the mercy upon Himself. Surely He will gather you to the day of resurrection; there is no doubt in it. Those who have caused loss to their own souls, it is those who do not believe.
6:13
For Him is all that is tranquil in the night and in the day. He is The All-hearing, The All-knowing.
6:14
Say, “Should I take as an ally any other than Allah; originator of the heavens and of the earth. He it is who feeds and is not fed” Say, “Truly I am commanded to be the first of those who have submitted” and be not of those who ascribe partners to Allah.
6:15
Say, “Truly I fear, if I disobey My Lord, punishment of a day most awful.”
6:16
Whoever is turned away from it, on that day, then indeed He has had mercy on him and that is the achievement the most evident.
6:17
And if Allah touches you with harm, then there is surely no one to remove it except He. But if He touches you with good, then surely it is He who has power over everything.
6:18
He it is The All over-powering above His slaves and He it is The All-wise, The All-acquainted.
6:19
Say, “Which thing is greater in witnessing?” Say, “Allah; He is a witness between me and you and this Quran has been revealed to me so that I may warn you thereby and anyone that it may reach” Will you indeed bear witness that there are other deities besides Allah? Say, “As for me I do not witness” Say, “He is but one deity and I indeed disavow all that you ascribe as partners to Him.”
6:20
Those unto whom We gave the book recognize him as they recognize their own sons. Those who have caused loss to their own souls, it is they who do not believe.
6:21
Who does more wrong to his own soul than one who contrives a lie against Allah or belies His signs. Truly those who wrong their own souls, do not prosper.
6:22
And the day when We shall gather them all together then We will say to those who ascribe partners to Allah, “Where are your partners whom you used to claim [as partners to Allah]?”
6:23
But nothing increased them in their tribulation except that they said, “By Allah, Our Lord, We were not those who ascribed partners to you.”
6:24
Look how they have lied against themselves. And all that they used to contrive has gone missing from them.
6:25
Among them are such who listen to you but We have put covers on their hearts so that they do not discern it and We have put a heavyweight in their ears [so that they do not hear it]. And if they see every sign, they will not believe in it. To such a degree that when they come to you, they argue with you. Those who disbelieve say, “This is nothing but tales of the ancient people.”
6:26
They drive others away from him and they themselves keep away from him but they are destroying nothing except their own souls while they are not aware.
6:27
If only you see when they are made to stand close to the fire then they will say, “Would it be that we were taken back and that we do not belie the signs of our Lord and that we be of those who are the believers.”
6:28
Nay! That which they used to hide from before has become exposed to them. If they were taken back, surely they will revert to that which they were forbidden from and truly they surely are liars.
6:29
And they said, “It is but our life of this world and we are not those who are going to be raised.”
6:30
If only you could see when they are made to stand in front of their Lord, He will say, “Is this not the truth?” They will say, “Yes indeed, By our Lord!.” He will say, “Then taste the punishment because of that you used to disbelieve.”
6:31
They indeed are in loss those who belied about meeting Allah until when the hour comes upon them suddenly, they will say, “O woe unto us because of that which we neglected regarding it” while they carry their burdens on their backs. Lo! How woeful is that which they carry [as a burden].
6:32
The life of this world is nothing but play in the day and leisure in the night and surely the home of the hereafter is far better for those who revere Allah. Will you not then understand?
6:33
We indeed know that indeed what they say surely makes you [O Muhammad] sad. But indeed they are not belying you rather those who wrong their own souls are denying the signs of Allah.
6:34
And indeed messengers before you were belied but they were patient over all that they were belied and hurt until Our help came unto them. And surely there is no one to change the words of Allah and indeed some news of the messengers has already come unto you.
6:35
If their turning away matters so much to you then if you are able to seek a tunnel in the earth or a ladder in the heaven in order to bring them a sign [then do it]. If Allah so willed then Allah surely will have gathered them all together on the guidance therefore be not of those who are the ignorant.
6:36
Only they who hear can respond and as for the dead, Allah will raise them and then unto Him they will be brought back.
6:37
And they say, “If only a sign is sent down unto him from His Lord” Say, “Truly Allah is able to send down a sign but most of them do not know.”
6:38
And there is no creature that moves on the earth nor a bird that flies with its two wings except that they are nations like unto you. We have left nothing out of the book. Then unto their Lord, they will be gathered.
6:39
And as for those who belie Our signs, they are deaf and dumb in the darknesses. Whoever Allah pleases, He causes him to go astray and whoever He pleases, He puts him on a path most upright.
6:40
Say, “Do you see yourself when Allah’s punishment comes upon you or when the hour comes upon you, are you going to invoke any other than Allah if you are indeed truthful?”
6:41
Nay! He alone you will invoke so that He removes that which you are invoking Him for if He pleases and then you will forget all that you are ascribing as partners to Him.
6:42
And indeed We sent [messengers] unto nations before you and We seized them with adversity and harm so that they may plead [with Allah].
6:43
If only they pleaded [with Allah] when Our adversity came upon them but rather their hearts grew hard and Satan made seemly unto them all that they used to do.
6:44
But when they forgot that which they were given as a reminder, We opened unto them the doors of everything until when they began to exult in which was given to them, We seized them suddenly. Lo! Here they are lost in despair.
6:45
Thus was cut off the root of the people who wronged their own souls and the praise is for Allah, Lord of the worlds.
6:46
Say, “Do you see if Allah was to snatch away your hearing and your sights and if He was to put a seal on your hearts, which deity other than Allah would restore it back to you?” Look how We present the signs in different ways but thereafter lo! Here they are turning away.
6:47
Say, “Do you see yourselves if Allah’s punishment was to come stealthily or openly, who will be destroyed except the people who wrong their own souls.”
6:48
We do not send the messengers except as bringers of glad tidings and as warners so whoever believes and does righteous deeds, then there will be no fear upon them nor will they grieve.
6:49
As for those who belie Our signs, the punishment will touch them because of that they used to renegade.
6:50
Say, “I say not unto you that with me are treasures of Allah nor that I know the unseen nor do I tell you that I am an angel. I do not follow except what is revealed unto me” Say, “Are the blind and the seeing equal?” Will you not then reflect?
6:51
Warn by it those who fear that they will be gathered unto their Lord and there will be no ally or intercessor for them besides Him so that perhaps they may safeguard their own souls.
6:52
And do not chase away those who call their Lord by the morning and by the evening seeking His face. Nothing in their reckoning is upon you nor anything in your reckoning is upon them. If you chase them away, then you will be of those who wrong their own souls.
6:53
And thus We try them some by the others so that they may say, “Are these the ones to whom Allah has sent down His favor from among us?” Lo! Is Allah not the one who knows best about those who are the grateful ones?
6:54
And if those who believe in Our signs come unto you then say, “Peace be on you. Your Lord has written the mercy upon Himself. That whoever among you does an evil deed out of ignorance and then he repents thereafter and makes amends, then lo! Indeed He is Oft-Forgiving, All-merciful.”
6:55
And thus We detail the signs and so that the way of the evildoers may be marked out.
6:56
Say, “I indeed am forbidden to worship those whom you invoke besides Allah” Say, “I do not follow your vain desires” [If I do then] I indeed would have gone astray and I would not be of those who are the well guided.
6:57
Say, “I indeed am on a clear proof from my Lord while you have belied it. That which you are asking for in haste is not with me.” For the judgement is only for Allah. He relates the truth and He is the best of those who decide.
6:58
Say, “If only I have that which you are asking for in haste, then the matter would have been judged between you and me” and Allah is All-knowing about those who wrong their own souls.
6:59
And with Him are the keys of the unseen. No one knows it except He and He knows what is in the land and what is the sea and not a leaf falls except that He knows it and not a seed in the darknesses of the earth nor a green thing nor a dry thing except that it is in a book most evident.
6:60
He it is who takes your souls by the night and He knows what you accomplish with your limbs by the day then He will raise you within it so that an appointed term may be fulfilled then unto Him is your place of return and then He will inform you about all that you used to do.
6:61
And He is All Over-powering over His slaves and He sends guardian [angels] over you until when the death comes upon one of you, Our messengers will take his soul and they never fall short of their obligation.
6:62
Then they are brought back to Allah their true Patron. Lo! Indeed for Him is the judgement and He is the most swift of the reckoners.
6:63
Say, “Who saves you from the darknesses of the land and of the sea? Whom you invoke clamorously and silently [Saying] If you do salvage us from this, surely we shall be of those who are the grateful ones.”
6:64
Say, "It is Allah who saves you from it and from all other afflictions” but then here you are ascribing partners to Him.
6:65
Say, “He it is The All-able to send down upon you punishment from above you or from below your feet or to confound you into numerous sects and to make you taste the fury of one another” Look how We present the signs in multiple ways so that perhaps they may discern.
6:66
Nonetheless your people belied it even though it is the truth. Say, “I am not a trustee over you.”
6:67
For every tiding, there is an ultimate station and in time you will come to know.
6:68
And if you see them those who dive into Our signs, then turn away from them until they dive into a discourse other than it. And if ever Satan makes you forget, then sit not after the remembrance with the people who wrong their own souls.
6:69
Those who revere Allah have no part in their reckoning but it is a reminder so that perhaps they may safeguard their own souls.
6:70
And forsake them who have taken their religion for a matter of play and idleness and the life of this world tempted them. And remind with it lest a soul gets insolvent because of that which it has perpetrated while there is no ally nor an intercessor for him besides Allah and whatever compensation it may offer, it will not be taken from it [the soul]. Those are the ones who have gone insolvent because of that which they perpetrated. For them there will be a drink from boiling water and a painful punishment because of that they used to disbelieve.
6:71
Say, “Shall we invoke besides Allah that which does not benefit us nor harm us? And thus we cause ourselves to be turned back on our heels after that Allah has well guided us like one who is tempted by the devils in the earth bewildered. He has friends who are calling him to the guidance ‘come to us’.” Say, “Truly guidance of Allah, that is the guidance and we have been commanded to submit ourselves to the Lord of the worlds
6:72
and that you establish the prayer and that you revere Him. For He it is unto whom you shall be gathered.”
6:73
And He it is who created the heavens and the earth by the truth. On a day He will say, “Be” and it is. His word is the truth and for Him is the dominion on the day when the trumpet shall be blown. Knower of the unseen and of the witnessed and He it is The All-wise, The All-acquainted.
6:74
And when Abraham said to his father Azar, “Do you take idols for gods? Truly I see you and your people in a misguidance most evident.”
6:75
And thus We show Abraham the inner kingdom of the heavens and of the earth and so that he may become of those who have attained to certitude.
6:76
So when the night engulfed him, he saw a star. He exclaimed, “This is my Lord” But when it set, he said, “I love not the things that set.”
6:77
Then when he saw the moon appearing in glory, he exclaimed, “This is my Lord” But when it set, he said, “If my Lord does not guide me, surely I will be of the people who have gone astray.”
6:78
But then when he saw the sun rising in glory, he exclaimed, “This is my Lord; this is the most great” but when it set, he said, “O my people! I indeed disavow all that you ascribe as partners to Him.”
6:79
I indeed, have set my face to the One who originated the heavens and the earth, in sincere devotion and I am not of those who ascribe partners to Him.
6:80
Then his people argued with him. He said, “Are you arguing with me about Allah when He has indeed guided me and I fear not that which you ascribe as partners to Him except something which my Lord pleases. My Lord encompasses everything in knowledge” Will you not then remember.
6:81
How can I fear that which you ascribe as partners [to Him] while you fear not that you have made partners to Allah things by which He has sent down no authority over you. Then which of the two parties has a better right to the safety if you indeed know?
6:82
Those who have faith and have not admixed their belief with any wrong, it is they for whom there is the safety while it is they who are well guided.
6:83
And that was Our proof, that We gave unto Abraham against his people. We raise in ranks whom We please. Truly your Lord is All-wise, All-knowing.
6:84
And We gifted unto him Isaac and Jacob; all of them We guided and Noah We guided from before and among his progeny David and Solomon and Job and Joseph and Moses and Aaron; and thus do We reward those who act in excellence.
6:85
And Zachariah and John and Jesus and Elijah; all of them are of the righteous.
6:86
And Ishmael and Isaiah and Jonah and Lot; and all of them We favored over the worlds.
6:87
And from their fathers and their progeny and their brothers. We chose them and We guided them to a path most upright.
6:88
That is the guidance of Allah, He guide with it whoever He pleases from among His slaves. And had they ascribed partners to him, then surely all that they used to do would have fallen away from them.
6:89
Those are the ones We gave them the book and the wisdom and the prophethood. But if these ones disbelieve in it, then We have indeed put a people in charge of it who are not disbelievers in it.
6:90
Those are the ones that Allah has guided. Therefore follow their guidance. Say, “I do not ask you a fee over it” It is but a remembrance for the worlds.
6:91
And they have not estimated Allah to His true estimate when they said, “Allah sent nothing to any human” Say, “Who sent down the book which was brought by Moses as a light and a guidance for the mankind?” You make it into booklets you show parts of it and you hide most and you were taught which you knew not nor did your fathers. Say, “Allah” Then forsake them diving in their idleness and playing.
6:92
And this is a book We have sent down blessed and testifying to that which went before it so that you may warn the mother of the cities and all those around it and as for those who believe in the hereafter do believe in it while they maintain their prayers.
6:93
Who does more wrong to his own soul than one who contrives a lie against Allah or one who says, “Revelation has been sent to me while nothing has been revealed to him” or one who says, “I will send down the like of what Allah has sent down” For only if you could see when those who wrong their own souls are in the waves of the death while the angels stretch out their hands [saying to them] “Deliver your souls. Today you will be requited with the punishment of humiliation because of what you used to say about Allah other than the truth and because you used to act about His signs in arrogance.”
6:94
And you have indeed come unto Us singles as We created you first time and you left all that We vouchsafed you behind your backs and We do not see with you your intercessors whom you had claimed that they are partners [with us] in you. All ties indeed have been severed between you and all that you used to claim has gone missing from you.
6:95
Truly Allah is the splitter of the seed at the core and of the nucleus. He brings the living out of the dead and He is surely going to bring the dead out of the living. This is Allah. Where then are you turned away.
6:96
The cleaver of the morn and He made the night a time of tranquility and the sun and the moon for computation. That is the true measurement of The All-mighty, The All-knowing.
6:97
And He it is who appointed for you the stars that you may be guided thereby in darknesses of the land and of the sea. Indeed We have detailed the signs for a people who know.
6:98
And He it is who raised you from one life with a place of ultimate station and a place of original station. We indeed have detailed the signs for a people who have discernment.
6:99
And He it is who sent down water from the sky and with it We bring forth plant of every kind and We bring forth from it green matter from which We bring forth seed neatly arrayed and from the date-palm from its white soft skin comes forth bunches of easy harvest and with it We bring forth gardens of grapes and the olives and the pomegranates; similar onto one another and dissimilar ones. Look at its fruit when it fructifies and [look at] its ripeness. Truly in that surely are signs for a people who believe.
6:100
And they attribute to Allah partners from the Jinns while He created them and they invented for Him sons and daughters without any knowledge. Glory be unto Him and far exalted is He above all that they attribute.
6:101
Inventor of the heavens and of the earth. How could there be a child for Him when there is no mate for Him and He created everything and He is All-knowing about everything.
6:102
That is Allah your Lord. There is no deity save He. Creator of everything therefore serve Him. He it is who is in charge of everything.
6:103
The gazes do not attain to Him while He attains to the gazes and He it is The All-subtle, The All-acquainted.
6:104
Indeed ostensible signs have come unto you from your Lord so whoever sees, it is for the benefit of his own soul and whoever remains blind, it is against it [his own soul] and I am not a guardian over you.
6:105
And thus We present the signs in multiple ways and so that they may say, “You have studiously learnt it” and so that We may make it clear for a people who know.
6:106
Follow that which has been revealed unto you from your Lord. There is no deity save He and turn away from those who ascribe partners to Him.
6:107
And had Allah so willed, they would not have ascribed partners to Him and We have not appointed you as a guardian over them and nor are you in charge of them.
6:108
And do not insult those they invoke besides Allah then they will insult Allah out of transgression without knowledge. Thus We have made seemly to every nation their deeds and then unto their Lord is their place of return and then He will inform them about all that they used to do.
6:109
And they swear by Allah with their most earnest oaths that if ever a sign comes unto them, they surely will believe in it. Say, “The signs are but in the presence of Allah” and what will make you perceive that even though if it [sign] comes [to them], they will not believe?
6:110
We keep on turning about their hearts and their sights just as they never believed in it the first time and we abandon them to grope in the darkness of their excessive trespassing.
6:111
Even if We did send down unto them the angels, and the dead did speak unto them, and We gathered together for them all things right in front of them, they are not the ones to believe, unless if Allah pleases but most of them are in ignorance.
6:112
Thus have we appointed for every prophet an enemy from among the devils of the humans and of the Jinns who secretly communicate to one another glittery words by way of deception. Had your Lord so pleased they would not have done it. Therefore, forsake them and all that they contrive.
6:113
So that the hearts of those who do not believe in the hereafter may incline towards it (the glittery words) and so that they may find pleasure in it and so that they may perpetrate all that they have to perpetrate.
6:114
[Say], “Should I seek as a judge any other than Allah when He it is who has sent down the book to you explained in detail” and as for those unto whom We gave the book, they know that it has indeed been sent down from your Lord by the truth. Therefore be not of those who are in confusion.
6:115
And the word of your Lord is complete in truthfulness and justice. There is no one to change His words and He it is The All-hearing, The All-knowing.
6:116
And if you obey most of those who are in the earth, they will misguide you from the way of Allah. They follow nothing but the whims and they are nothing but those who invent lies.
6:117
Truly your Lord, He is the one who is All-knowing about those who go astray from His way and He is one who knows all about those who are well guided.
6:118
Therefore eat from that over which Allah’s name has been pronounced if you truly are believers in His signs.
6:119
And what is the matter with you that you eat not from that on which Allah’s name has been pronounced when He indeed has detailed for you all that He has made unlawful unto you except that to which you are driven by necessity and truly many surely misguide [others] through their vain desires without knowledge. Truly your Lord, He it is who is All-knowing about the transgressors.
6:120
And forsake the outside of impiety and its inside. Truly those who perpetrate the impiety, they will soon be requited for all that they used to perpetrate.
6:121
And do not eat from that over which Allah’s name has not been pronounced for indeed it is surely a renegation and truly the devils surely communicate secretly to their allies so that they may argue with you and if you obey them, truly you surely are going to be those who ascribe partners to Allah.
6:122
Is one who was dead then We brought him to life and We made a light for him by which he walks among the mankind like one whose likeness is in the darknesses and he is surely not going to get out of it. Thus all that they used to do has been made seemly for the disbelievers.
6:123
And thus We appointed in every township the great ones of its evildoers so that they may scheme in it and they are not scheming except against their own souls while they are not aware.
6:124
And when a sign comes unto them they say, “We will never believe until we are given the like of what was given to the messengers of Allah” Yet Allah is All-knowing about where to place His message. In time a belittling punishment from the presence of Allah will overtake those who commit evil deeds and a formidable chastisement because of all that they used to scheme.
6:125
And whoever Allah wills to guide, his bosom He expands wide with willingness towards self-surrender [Tasleem]; and whoever He wills to let go astray, his bosom He causes to be tight and constricted, as if he were climbing into the space; it is thus that Allah inflicts the opprobrium upon those who do not believe.
6:126
This is the path of your Lord, most straight. We indeed have detailed the signs for a people who oft-remember.
6:127
For them is home of the peace in the presence of their Lord and He it is who is their ally because of all that they used to do.
6:128
The day He will gather them all together, “O folk of the Jinns! You have increased your numbers from the humans” and their allies from the humans will say, “O our Lord! We have taken full benefit of one another and we have reached our term that You appointed for us” He will say, “The fire is your resting place to abide therein forever except for that which Allah pleases” Truly your Lord is All-wise, All-knowing.
6:129
And thus we make the ones who wrong their own souls allies to one another because of what they used to perpetrate.
6:130
“O folk of the Jinns and the humans! Did not the messengers from among you come unto you telling unto you My signs and warning you of the meeting of this day of yours?” They said, “We bear witness against our own souls” and the life of this world tempted them and they bore witness against their own souls that they indeed were disbelievers.
6:131
That is because it is not for your Lord to destroy a township for merely committing the wrong [of ascribing partners to Him] if its people are in oblivion.
6:132
For everyone there are ranks from that which they do and your Lord is surely not oblivious about all that they do.
6:133
And your Lord is The All-sufficient, Owner of the mercy. If He pleases, He will make you go and can raise in your place as your successors what He pleases as He raised you from the seeds of other people.
6:134
Truly that which you are promised is surely going to come and you are not going to be those who will go out of reach.
6:135
Say, “O my people! Work hard at your stead and I indeed am surely working hard and in time you will know for whom there will be the home of good ending.” Truly those who wrong their own souls, do not prosper.
6:136
And they allocate to Allah a portion of that which He disseminated from the crops and from the cattle and they say, “This is for Allah according to their false claim and this is for our partners.” But what is for their partners does not get to Allah but what is for Allah does get to their partners. How woeful is the arbitration which they do.
6:137
And thus to many of those who ascribe partners to Allah, their partners have made seemly to them the killing of their children so that they may destroy them and they may confound them in their religion. But if Allah had so willed, they would have not done it therefore forsake them and all that they contrive.
6:138
And they say, “These are cattle and crop forbidden no one eats it except whom we please according to their false claim and some cattle their backs were forbidden [to be ridden] and cattle they do not mention Allah’s name on them as a contrivance against Him Soon He will requite them for all that they used to contrive.
6:139
And they said, “What is in the womb of these cattle is entirely [lawful] for our males and unlawful for our females but if it is dead, then they are all equal in it.” He will soon requite them for their attributions. Truly He is All-wise, All-knowing.
6:140
Indeed they are in loss those who killed their children out of foolishness without knowledge and they prohibited that which Allah had provided them with, out of contrivance against Allah. They indeed have gone astray and they indeed were not those who were well guided.
6:141
He it is who has raised the gardens, ones which are husbanded and ones which are not husbanded and the date-palms and the crops of various tastes and the olive and the pomegranate similar to one another and dissimilar ones. Eat from its fruit when it has fructified and give out its due on the day of its harvest and do not be extravagant. Truly He loves not those who are extravagant.
6:142
And from the cattle there are means of transport and tapestry. Therefore eat from that which Allah has provided you with and follow not the footsteps of Satan. Truly he for you is an enemy most evident.
6:143
Eight pairs. From the sheep two and from the goat two. Say, “Is it the two males that He has forbidden or the two females or that which the womb of the two females have contained? Inform me with knowledge if you are indeed truthful.”
6:144
And from the camel two and from the cow two. Say, “Is it the two males that He has forbidden or the two females or that which the wombs of the two females have contained?” Were you present when Allah gave you this advice? And who does more wrong to his own soul than one who contrives a lie against Allah so that he may misguide the people without knowledge. Truly Allah does not guide the people who wrong their own souls.
6:145
Say, “I do not find in that which has been revealed unto me anything forbidden unto any consumer to consume it except it be dead meat or running blood or the flesh of swine, for that indeed is an abomination, or a renegation declaimed in the name of anything other than Allah.” But whoever is driven by necessity not bent on wrongfulness and not transgressing, then truly Allah is Oft-Forgiving, All-merciful.
6:146
And upon those who have adhered to Judaism, We had forbidden all that has claws and from the cows and the cattle, We forbade on them their fats except that which their backs carry or their entrails or that which has mixed up with bones. Thus We requite them for their wrongfulness and We indeed are surely truthful.
6:147
If they belie you then say, “Your Lord is owner of all-encompassing mercy but yet His fury cannot be turned away from the people who are the evildoers.”
6:148
They will say, those who ascribe partners to Him, “If Allah so willed, we would not have ascribed partners to Him nor would our fathers have nor had we made anything unlawful.” Thus belied the people who were before them until they came to taste Our fury. Say, “Is there any knowledge with you so that you can bring it out for us? You are following nothing but whims and you do nothing but invent lies.”
6:149
Say, “For Allah is the proof the most compelling. Had He so willed, He would have surely guided you all together.”
6:150
Say, “Bring along your witnesses those who bear witness that Allah has indeed forbidden this” and if they bear witness, bear not witness with them. And follow not the vain desires of those who belie Our signs nor of those who do not believe in the hereafter while they assign equals to their Lord.
6:151
Say, “Come. Let me relate unto you all that your Lord has forbidden unto you that you should not ascribe anything as a partner to Him and kindness to the parents and that you kill not your children for fear of poverty.” We provide for you and for them, “and come not close to the offences whether what is apparent from it and what is hidden and do not kill the soul which Allah has consecrated except by the right. This is what He has admonished you unto perhaps you may understand.”
6:152
And do not come close to the property of the orphan except by that which is most excellent until he reaches his maturity in mind and fulfill the measurement and the weight in uprightness. We do not place a burden on any soul except that which it can bear and if you say then be just even though it be one of near of kin and fulfill Allah’s promise. This is what He has admonished you unto so that perhaps you may remember.
6:153
And indeed this is My way most upright therefore follow it and follow not the various ways lest they route you from His way. This is what He admonishes you to so that perhaps you may revere Him.
6:154
Then We gave Moses the book as a completion of all that is most excellent and as a detailed explanation for everything and as a guidance and as a mercy so that perhaps they may believe in the meeting of their Lord.
6:155
And this is a book We have sent it down full of blessing so follow it and revere Allah so that perhaps you may be granted mercy.
6:156
Lest you say, “The book was only sent on two groups before us and we indeed were surely oblivious about the study of them.”
6:157
Or lest you say, “If only the book was sent down unto us, we surely would have been better guided than them.” Now indeed has come unto you a clear proof from your Lord and a guidance and a mercy. Who does more wrong to his own soul than he who belies the signs of Allah and turns away from them? We soon will reward those who turn away from Our signs an evil punishment because of that they used to turn away [from Our signs].
6:158
Are they waiting for anything other than that the angels will come upon them or that your Lord will come or that some of the signs of your Lord will come? The day when some of the signs of your Lord will come, the belief of any soul will be of no use to it, if it had not believed before or had not earned any good in its belief. Say, “Wait. Indeed we are also waiting.”
6:159
Truly those who have divided their religion and became factions, you have no part in them. Their affair is only up to Allah. Then He will inform them about all that they used to do.
6:160
Whoever comes along with a single good deed, there will be ten of the likes of it and whoever comes with a single bad deed, he will not be requited except with the equal of it while they will not be wronged.
6:161
Say, “I indeed, my Lord has guided me unto a path most upright; religion of rectitude; the way of Abraham in full devotion and he was not of those who ascribe partners to Allah.”
6:162
Say, “Indeed my prayer and my sacrifice and my life and my death are for Allah, Lord of the worlds.
6:163
There is no partner for Him and thus I am commanded and I am first of those who have submitted themselves to Allah.”
6:164
Say, “Shall I seek a Lord other than Allah when He is the Lord of everything” And no soul earns except against itself and no bearer of a burden can bear the burden of another and then your place of return is unto your Lord and then He will inform you about all that in which you used to differ.
6:165
And He it is who has appointed you vicegerents of the earth and has raised some of you above others in ranks so that He may try you in that which He has given you. Truly your Lord is Swift in the chastisement and truly He surely is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
