61. As-Saff
In the Name of Allah, the Most
Beneficent, the Most Merciful.
1. Whatsoever is
in the heavens and whatsoever is on the earth glorifies Allah.
And He is the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.
2. O you who believe!
Why do you say that which you do not do?
3. Most hateful it
is with Allah that you say that which you do not do.
4. Verily, Allah
loves those who fight in His Cause in rows (ranks) as if they
were a solid structure .
5. And (remember)
when Musa (Moses) said to his people: "O my people!
Why do you hurt me while you know certainly that I am the Messenger
of Allah to you? So when they turned away (from the Path
of Allah), Allah turned their hearts away (from the
Right Path). And Allah guides not the people who are Fasiqun
(rebellious, disobedient to Allah).
6. And (remember)
when 'Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), said: "O Children
of Israel! I am the Messenger of Allah unto you confirming
the Taurat [(Torah) which came] before me, and giving glad
tidings of a Messenger to come after me, whose name shall be Ahmed
. But when he (Ahmed i.e. Muhammad )
came to them with clear proofs, they said: "This is plain
magic."
7. And who does more
wrong than the one who invents a lie against Allah, while
he is being invited to Islam? And Allah guides not
the people who are Zalimun (polytheists, wrong-doers
and disbelievers) folk.
8. They intend to
put out the Light of Allah (i.e. the religion of Islam,
this Qur'an, and Prophet Muhammad ) with their mouths. But Allah
will complete His Light even though the disbelievers hate (it).
9. He it is Who has
sent His Messenger (Muhammad )
with guidance and the religion of truth (Islamic Monotheism)
to make it victorious over all (other) religions even though the
Mushrikun (polytheists, pagans, idolaters, and disbelievers
in the Oneness of Allah and in His Messenger Muhammed ) hate (it).
10. O You who believe!
Shall I guide you to a commerce that will save you from a painful
torment.
11. That 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!
12. (If you do so)
He will forgive you your sins, and admit you into Gardens under
which rivers flow, and pleasant dwelling in Gardens of 'Adn
Eternity ['Adn (Edn) Paradise], that is indeed the
great success.
13. And also (He
will give you) another (blessing) which you love, help from Allah
(against your enemies) and a near victory. And give glad tidings
(O Muhammad )
to the believers.
14. O you who believe!
Be you helpers (in the Cause) of Allah as said 'Iesa (Jesus),
son of Maryam (Mary), to AlHawariun
(the disciples): "Who are my helpers (in the Cause) of Allah?"
AlHawarieen (the disciples) said: "We
are Allah's helpers" (i.e. we will strive in His Cause!).
Then a group of the Children of Israel believed and a group disbelieved.
So We gave power to those who believed against their enemies,
and they became the uppermost.
