Al-Imran


(3:1) Alif, Lam, Mim.
آية رقم 2

(3:2) Allah, the Ever-Living, the Self-Subsisting, Who sustains the entire
order of the universe - there is no God but He.1

(3:3) He has revealed this Book to you, setting forth the truth and confirming
the earlier Books, and earlier He revealed the Torah and Gospel

(3:7) It is He Who has revealed the Book to you. Some of its verses are absolutely
clear and lucid, and these are the core of the Book.5 Others are
ambiguous.6 Those in whose hearts there is perversity, always go
about the part which is ambiguous, seeking mischief and seeking to arrive at
its meaning arbitrarily, although none knows their true meaning except Allah.
On the contrary, those firmly rooted in knowledge say: 'We believe in it; it
is all from our Lord alone.'7 No one derives true admonition from
anything except the men of understanding.

(3:8) They pray to Allah: 'Our Lord! Do not let our hearts swerve towards
crookedness after You have guided us to the right way, and. bestow upon us Your
mercy. Surely You, only You, are the Munificent Giver!

(3:11) (To them shall happen) the like of what happened to the people of
Pharaoh, and those before them. They rejected Our signs, so Allah seized them
for their sins. Allah indeed is severe in punishment.

(3:12) Tell those who disbelieved:8 'You shall soon be overpowered
and mustered to Hell - and that is an evil resting place!'

(3:13) You have already come across an instructive sign in the two hosts
that encountered each other in battle (at Badr): one host fighting in the way
of Allah, and the other that of unbelievers. They saw with their own eyes that
one host was twice the number of the other.9 But (the result of the
battle has proved that) Allah succours with His victory whomsoever He wills.
In this there is surely a lesson for all who have eyes to see.0

(3:16) These are the ones who pray: 'Our Lord! We do indeed believe, so forgive
us our sins and keep us safe from the chastisement of the Fire';
آية رقم 17

(3:17) men who are steadfast,3 truthful, obedient, spend (in
the way of Allah) and implore the forgiveness of Allah before daybreak.

(3:19) The true religion with Allah is Islam.6 The People of
the Book adopted many different ways rather than follow the true way of Islam
even after the knowledge of truth had reached them, and this merely to commit
excesses against one another.7 Let him who refuses to follow the
ordinances and directives of Allah know that Allah is swift in His reckoning.

(3:20) And if they remonstrate with you, tell them: 'I have submitted my
whole being to Allah, and so have those who follow me.' And ask the People of
the Book as well as those who follow no heavenly Scripture: 'Have you also submitted
(to Allah)?'8 If they have submitted to Him, they are indeed on
the right way but if they deviate from submitting to Allah, then your duty is
merely to deliver the message. Allah observes the affairs of His servants.

(3:25) How, then, will they fare when We shall gather them all together to
witness the Day about (the coming of) which there is no doubt, and when every
human being shall be repaid in full for what he has done, and none shall be
wronged?

(3:32) Say: 'Obey Allah and obey the Messenger.' If they turn away from this
then know that Allah does not love those who refuse to obey Him and His Messenger.8
آية رقم 34

(3:34) (for His messengership) - a people alike and the seed of one another.1
Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.

(3:35). (He also heard) when the woman of 'Imran2 said: 'O Lord!
Behold, unto You do I vow that the child in my womb is to be devoted to Your
exclusive service. Accept it, then, from me. Surely You alone are All-Hearing,
All-Knowing.'3

(3:36) But when she gave birth to a female child, she said: 'O Lord! I have
given birth to a female' - and Allah knew full well what she had given birth
to - 'and a female is not the same as a male.4 I have named her
Mary and commit her and her offspring to You for protection from Satan, the
accursed.'

(3:39) As he stood praying in the sanctuary, the angels called out to him:
'Allah gives you good tidings of John (Yahya),8 who shall confirm
a command of Allah ,9 shall be outstanding among men, utterly chaste,
and a Prophet from among the righteous.'

(3:42) Then came the time when the angels said: 'O Mary! Behold, Allah has
chosen you, and made you pure, and exalted you above all the women in the world.
آية رقم 43

(3:43) O Mary! Remain devout to your Lord, and prostrate yourself in worship,
and bow with those who bow (before Him).'

(3:44) (O Muhammad!) We reveal to you this account from a realm which lies
beyond the reach of your perception for you were not with them when they drew
lots with their pens about who should be Mary's guardian,3 and you
were not with them when they disputed about it.

(3:45) And when the angels said: 'O Mary! Allah gives you the glad tidings
of a command from Him: his name shall be Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary. He
shall be highly honoured in this world and in the Next, and shall be one of
those near stationed to Allah.
آية رقم 46

(3:46) And he shall speak to men in the cradle and also later when he grows
to maturity and shall indeed be among the righteous.'
آية رقم 48

(3:48) And He will teach him the Book, the Wisdom, the Torah, the Gospel,

(3:49) and he will be a Messenger to the Children of Israel.' (And when he
came to them he said): 'I have come to you with a sign from your Lord. I will
make for you from clay the likeness of a bird and then I will breathe into it
and by the leave of Allah it will become a bird. I will also heal the blind
and the leper, and by the leave of Allah bring the dead to life. I will also
inform you of what things you eat and what you treasure up in your houses. Surely
this is a sign for you if you are true believ-ers.5

(3:50) And I have come to confirm the truth of whatever there still remains
of the Torah,6 and to make lawful to you some of the things which
had been forbidden to you.7 have come to you with a sign from your
Lord; so have fear of Allah and obey me.

(3:52) And when Jesus perceived their leaning towards unbelief, he asked:
'Who will be my helpers in the way of Allah?' The disciples9 said:
'We are the helpers of Allah. We believe in Allah,0 and be our witness
that we have submitted ourselves exclusively to Allah.

(3:53) Our Lord! We believe in the com-mandment You have revealed and we
obey the Messenger; make us, then, one of those who bear witness (to the Truth).'
آية رقم 54

(3:54) Then they schemed (against the Messiah), and Allah countered their
schemes by schemes of His own. Allah is the best of schemers.
آية رقم 63

(3:63) And if they turn their backs, truly Allah knows those who cause mischief.

(3:64) Say:6 'People of the Book! Come to a word common between
us and you:7 that we shall serve none but Allah and shall associate
none with Him in His divinity and that some of us will not take others as lords
beside Allah.' And if they turn their backs (from accepting this call), tell
them: 'Bear witness that we are the ones who have submitted ourselves exclusively
to Allah.'

(3:67) Abraham was neither a Jew nor a Christian; he was a Muslim, wholly
devoted to God.9 And he certainly was not amongst those who associate
others with Allah in His divinity.

(3:68) Surely the people who have the best claim to a relationship with Abraham
are those who followed him in the past, and presently this Prophet and those
who believe in him; Allah is the guardian of the men of faith.
آية رقم 70

(3:70) O People of the Book! Why do you reject the signs of Allah even though
you yourselves witness them?0

(3:73) They also say among themselves: 'Do not follow anyone except him who
follows your faith.' Say: 'Surely true guidance is Allah's. It is His favour
that anyone should be given the like of what you have been given in the past,
and that others should have been given firm evidence to proffer against you
before your Lord.' Say: 'Surely bounty is in the Hand of Allah; He gives it
to whom He wills. Allah is All-Embracing,2 All-Knowing.3

(3:75) And among the People of the Book there are some who would restore
you even if you were to entrust a treasure of gold, and of them there are some
whom were you to entrust with one gold piece, will not restore it unless you
stand over them. That is because they say: 'We will not be taken to task for
whatever we may do to non-Jews (ummls).4 Thus they falsely fix a
lie upon Allah, and do so wittingly.

(3:81) And recall when Allah took a covenant from the Prophets: 'This is
the Book and the Wisdom which I have given you. But should a Prophet come to
you confirming that which is already with you, you shall believe in him and
shall help him.9 So saying, Allah asked: 'Do you agree and accept
to take up the burden of the covenant?' They answered: 'We agree,' He said:
'Then bear wirness; and I will be with you among the witness.

(3:83) Do they now seek a religion other than prescribed by Allah even though
all that is in the heavens and the earth is in submission to Him1
- willing or unwillingly - and to Him all shall return?

(3:85) And whoever seeks a way other than this way a submission (Islam),
will find that it will not be accepted from him and in the Life to come he will
be among the losers.

(3:87) The recom- pense for their wrong-doing is that the curse of Allah
and of the angels and of all men shall upon them.

(3:88) Thus shall they abide. Neither shall their chastisement be granted
nor shall they be granted any respite.

(3:90) Those who relieved and have har-dened in their disbelief after once
believing,4 their (pretence to) repentance shall not be accepted.
Indeed such men have altogether strayed.

(3:95) Say: 'Whatever Allah has said is true. Follow, then, the way of Abraham
in total devotion to Allah. He was not one of those who associate others with
Allah in His divinity.8

(3:96) Behold, the first House (of Prayer) established for mankind is the
one at Bakkah: it is full of blessing and a centre of guidance for the whole
world.9

(3:103) Hold fast together to the cable of Allah3 and be not
divided. Remember the blessing that Allah bestowed upon you: you were once enemies
then He brought your hearts together, so that through His blessing you became
brothers. You stood on the brink of a pit of fire and He delivered you from
it.4 Thus Allah makes His signs clear to you that you may be guided
to the right way.5

(3:104) And from among you there must be a party who invite people to all
that is good and enjoin the doing of all that is right and forbid the doing
of all that is wrong. It is they who will attain true success.

(3:105) Do not be like those who fell into factions and differed among themselves6
after clear signs had come to them. A mighty chastisement awaits them on the
Day when some faces will turn bright and ther faces will turn dark. Those whose
faces have turned dark will be told: 'Did you fall into unbelief after you had
been blessed with belief? Taste, then, chastise- ment for your unbelief.'

(3:106) On the Day when some faces will turn bright and ther faces will turn
dark. Those whose faces have turned dark will be told: 'Did you fall into unbelief
after you had been blessed with belief? Taste, then, chastisement for your unbelief.

(3:111) They will not be able to harm you except for a little hurt, and if
they fight against you they will turn their backs (in flight), and then they
will not be succoured.

(3:112) Wherever they were, they were covered with ignominy, except when
they were protected by either a covenant with Allah or a covenant with men.90
They are laden with the burden of Allah's wrath, and humiliation is stuck
upon them - and all this because they rejected the signs of Allah and slayed
the Prophets without right, and because they disobeyed and transgressed.

(3:121) (O Messenger!4 Remind the Muslims of the occasion) when
you went forth from your home at early dawn (to the battlefield of Uhud) and
placed the believers in battle arrays. Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.

(3:122) And recall when two groups from among you were inclined to flag5
although Allah was their protector; it is in Allah that the believers should
put their trust.
آية رقم 127

(3:127) And Allah provided this aid to you in order to cut off a part of
those who disbelieved and frustrate them so that they retreat in utter disappointment.
آية رقم 131

(3:131) And have fear of the Fire which awaits those who deny the Truth.
آية رقم 132

(3:132) And obey Allah and the Messenger, that you may be shown mercy. And
hasten to the for-giveness of your Lord and to a Paradise as vast as the heavens
and the earth, prepared for the God-fearing who spend in the way of Allah both
in plenty and hardship, who restrain their anger, and forgive others. Allah
loves such good-doers."

(3:137) Many eras have passed before you. Go about, then, in the land and
behold the end of those who gave the lie to (the directives and ordinances of
Allah).
آية رقم 138

(3:138) This is a plain exposition for men, and a guidance and admonition
for the Godfearing.
آية رقم 139

(3:139) Do not, then, either lose heart or grieve: for you shall surely gain
the upper hand if you are true men of faith.

(3:140) If a wound has befallen you a similar wound has already befallen
the people who are opposed to you.0 We make such movements to men
in turn so that Allah might mark out those who are the true men of faith and
select from among you those who do really bear witness (to the Truth):1
for Allah does not love the wrong-doers,
آية رقم 141

(3:141) and makes men go through trials in order that He might purge the
believers and blot out those who deny the Truth.

(3:145) It is not given to any soul to die except with the leave of Allah,
and at an appointed time.4 And he who desires his reward in this
world, We shall grant him the reward of this world; and he who desires the reward
of the Other World,5 We shall grant him the reward of the Other
World. And soon shall We reward the ones who are grateful.6

(3:148) Thereupon Allah granted them the reward of this world as well as
a better reward of the World to Come. Allah loves those who do good.

(3:151) We will cast terror into the hearts of those who have denied the
Truth since they have associated others with Allah in His divinity - something
for which He has sent down no sanction. The Fire is their abode; how bad the
resting place of the wrong-doers will be!

(3:152) Allah surely fulfilled His promise (of succour) when you were slaying
them by His leave until the moment when you flagged and quarrelled among yourselves
about the matter, and acted against the order of (the Prophet). Soon He showed
you what you had intensely desired - for some among you sought this world and
some of you sought the Next. Thereupon, in order to put you to a test He turned
you away from your foes. Still He pardoned you after that9 for
Allah is Bounteous to those who believe.

(3:153) Recall when you were fleeing without casting even a side glance at
anyone, and the Messenger was calling out to you from the rear.0
Then Allah requited you by inflicting grief after grief upon you1
so as to instruct you neither to grieve for the losses you might suffer nor
for the afflictions that might befall you. Allah knows all that you do.

(3:154) Then, after inflict-ing this grief, He sent down an inner peace upon
you - a sleep which overtook some of you.2 Those who were concerned
merely about themselves, entertaining false notions about Allah - the notions
of the Age of Ignorance - asked: 'Have we any say in the matter?' Tell them:
'Truly, all power of decision rests solely with Allah.' Indeed, they conceal
in their hearts what they would not reveal to you, saying: 'If we had any power
of decision, we would not have been slain here.' Say: 'Even if you had been
in your houses, those for whom slaying had been appointed would have gone forth
to the places where they were to be slain.' And all this happened so that Allah
might test your secret thoughts and purge your hearts of all impurities. Allah
knows well what is in the breasts of men.

(3:156) Believers, do not behave like those who disbelieved and say to their
brothers (who meet some mishap) in the course of their journey for fighting:
'Had they remained with us, they would not have died nor been slain.' Allah
makes such thoughts the cause of deep regrets in their hearts.3
For in truth it is Allah alone who grants life and deals death. Allah sees all
that you do.
آية رقم 158

(3:158) And were you to die or be slain, it is to Allah that you will all
be mustered.

(3:159) It was thanks to Allah's mercy that you were gentle to them. Had
you been rough, hard-hearted, they would surely have scattered away from you.
So pardon them, and pray for their forgiveness, and take counsel from them in
matters of importance. And when you are resolved on a course of action place
your trust in Allah; surely Allah loves those who put their trust (in Him).

(3:165) And how come when a calamity befell you, you began to ask: 'How has
this come about?'5 even though the enemy has suffered at your hands
(in the Battle of Badr) double what you have suffered!6 Say: This
calamity has been brought about by yourselves.7 Surely Allah is
Ail-Powerful.8
آية رقم 166

(3:166) What befell you on the day when the two hosts met was by the leave
of Allah, and in order that He might mark out those who believe

(3:167) and those who are hypocrites. And when these hypocrites were asked:
'Come and fight in the wayof Allah', or (at least) 'defend yourselves', they
answered: 'If we but knew that there would be fighting, we would certainly have
followed.9 They were nearer then to infidelity than to faith. They
utter from their mouths what is not in their hearts. Allah knows well what they
conceal.

(3:171) They rejoice at the favours and bounties of Allah, and at the awareness
that Allah will not cause the reward of the believers to be lost.

(3:173) When people said to them: 'Behold, a host has gathered around you
and you should fear them', it only increased their faith and they answered:
'Allah is Sufficient for us; and what an excellent Guardian He is!'

(3:179) Allah will not let the believers stay in the state they are:5
He will set the wicked apart from the good. Allah is not going to disclose to
you what is hidden in the realm beyond the reach of perception,6
but He chooses from among His Messengers whom He wills (to intimate such knowledge).
Believe, then, in Allah and in His Messengers; and if you believe and be come
God-fearing, yours will be a great reward.

(3:184) Now, if they give the lie to you, then other Messengers who came
bearing clear signs and scriptures and the illuminating Book were also given
the lie before you.

(3:186) (Believers!) You will certainly be put to test in respect of your
properties and lives, and you will certainly hear many hurtful things from those
who were granted the Book before you and those who have associated others with
Allah in His divinity. If you remain patient and God-fearing1 this
indeed is a matter of great resolution.

(3:189) To Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth; and Allah
is All-Powerful. indeed been successful. The life of this world is merely an
illusory enjoyment.

(3:190) Surely in the creation of the heavens and the earth,4
and in the alternation of night and day, there are signs for men of understanding.

(3:191) those who remember Allah while standing, sitting or (reclining) on
their backs, and reflect in the creation of the heavens and the earth,5
(saying): 'Our Lord! You have not created this in vain. Glory to You! Save us,
then, from the chastisement of the Fire.6

(3:195) Their Lord answered the Prayer thus: "I will not suffer the work
of any of you, whether male or female, to go to waste; each of you is from the
other.9 Those who emigrated and were driven out from their homesteads
and were persecuted in My cause, and who fought and were slain, indeed I shall
wipe out their evil deeds from them and shall certainly admit them to the gardens
beneath which rivers flow." This is their reward with their Lord; and with Allah
lies the best reward.0
آية رقم 196

(3:196) (O Messenger!) Do not let the strutting about of the unbelievers
in the land deceive you.
آية رقم 197

(3:197) This is but a little enjoyment, then their destination is Hell -what
an evil resting place!

(3:200) Believers, be steadfast, and vie in steadfastness,1
stand firm in your faith, and hold Allah in fear that you may attain true success.
