61:1  Glorifies Allah whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Allah is the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.

61:2  O you who believe! Why do you say that which you don’t do?

61:3  It is most hateful with Allah that you say that which you don’t do.

61:4  Surely, Allah loves those who fight in His cause in rows (ranks in battle) as if they were a solid structure.

61:5  And (remember) when Moses said to his people: “O my people! Why do you hurt me while certainly you know that I am the Messenger of Allah to you?” So when they turned away (from Allah), Allah turned away their hearts (from the Right Way). And Allah does not guide those who are transgressors.

61:6  And (remember) when Jesus, son of Mary, said: “O Children of Israel! I am the Messenger of Allah to you, confirming the Torah which came before me, and give you glad tidings of a Messenger that will come after me whose name shall be Ahmed (another name of Muhammad, meaning ‘The praised one’).” But when he (Muhammad) came to them with clear proofs, they said: “This is plain magic.”

61:7  Who does more wrong than the one who invents a lie against Allah while he is being invited to Islam? And Allah does not guide the people of wrongdoers.

61:8  They intend to put out the Light of Allah (of Islam) with their mouths. But Allah will perfect His Light even though the disbelievers hate it.

61:9  It is He Who has sent His Messenger (Muhammad) with guidance and the religion of truth (Islam) to make it victorious over all other religions even though the polytheists hate it.

61:10  O you who believe! Shall I guide you to a commerce that will save you from a painful punishment?

61:11  You believe in Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad), and that you strive hard, and fight in the cause of Allah with your wealth and your lives. That will be better for you, if you but know!

61:12  (If you do so) He will forgive you your sins and admit you into gardens under which rivers flow, and pleasant residences in gardens of Eden (eternity) (Paradise), that is the great success.

61:13  And also (He will give you) another blessing which you love, help from Allah (against your enemies) and a near victory. So give glad tidings (O Muhammad) to the believers.

61:14  O you who believe! Be the helpers (in the Cause) of Allah, just as Jesus, son of Mary, said to the disciples: “Who will be my helpers (in the cause) of Allah?” The disciples said: “We are helpers of Allah.” Then a group of the children of Israel believed and a group disbelieved. So Allah gave power to those who believed against their enemies, and they became the uppermost.
