Section 1 · Verses 1–5

O you who have believed, fulfill all contracts. Lawful for you are the animals of grazing livestock except for that which is recited to you in this Qur'an - hunting not being permitted while you are in the state of ihram. Indeed, Allah ordains what He intends O you who have believed, do not violate the rites of Allah or the sanctity of the sacred month or neglect the marking of the sacrificial animals and garlanding them or violate the safety of those coming to the Sacred House seeking bounty from their Lord and His approval. But when you come out of ihram, then you may hunt. And do not let the hatred of a people for having obstructed you from al-Masjid al-Haram lead you to transgress. And cooperate in righteousness and piety, but do not cooperate in sin and aggression. And fear Allah; indeed, Allah is severe in penalty Prohibited to you are dead animals, blood, the flesh of swine, and that which has been dedicated to other than Allah, and those animals killed by strangling or by a violent blow or by a head-long fall or by the goring of horns, and those from which a wild animal has eaten, except what you are able to slaughter before its death, and those which are sacrificed on stone altars, and prohibited is that you seek decision through divining arrows. That is grave disobedience. This day those who disbelieve have despaired of defeating your religion; so fear them not, but fear Me. This day I have perfected for you your religion and completed My favor upon you and have approved for you Islam as religion. But whoever is forced by severe hunger with no inclination to sin - then indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful They ask you, O Muhammad, what has been made lawful for them. Say, "Lawful for you are all good foods and game caught by what you have trained of hunting animals which you train as Allah has taught you. So eat of what they catch for you, and mention the name of Allah upon it, and fear Allah." Indeed, Allah is swift in account This day all good foods have been made lawful, and the food of those who were given the Scripture is lawful for you and your food is lawful for them. And lawful in marriage are chaste women from among the believers and chaste women from among those who were given the Scripture before you, when you have given them their due compensation, desiring chastity, not unlawful sexual intercourse or taking secret lovers. And whoever denies the faith - his work has become worthless, and he, in the Hereafter, will be among the losers

Section 2 · Verses 6–11

O you who have believed, when you rise to perform prayer, wash your faces and your forearms to the elbows and wipe over your heads and wash your feet to the ankles. And if you are in a state of janabah, then purify yourselves. But if you are ill or on a journey or one of you comes from the place of relieving himself or you have contacted women and do not find water, then seek clean earth and wipe over your faces and hands with it. Allah does not intend to make difficulty for you, but He intends to purify you and complete His favor upon you that you may be grateful And remember the favor of Allah upon you and His covenant with which He bound you when you said, "We hear and we obey"; and fear Allah. Indeed, Allah is Knowing of that within the breasts O you who have believed, be persistently standing firm for Allah, witnesses in justice, and do not let the hatred of a people prevent you from being just. Be just; that is nearer to righteousness. And fear Allah; verily, Allah is Acquainted with what you do Allah has promised those who believe and do righteous deeds that for them there is forgiveness and great reward But those who disbelieve and deny Our signs - those are the companions of Hellfire O you who have believed, remember the favor of Allah upon you when a people determined to extend their hands in aggression against you, but He withheld their hands from you; and fear Allah. And upon Allah let the believers rely

Section 3 · Verses 12–19

And Allah had already taken a covenant from the Children of Israel, and We delegated from among them twelve leaders. And Allah said, "I am with you. If you establish prayer and give zakah and believe in My messengers and support them and loan Allah a goodly loan, I will surely remove from you your misdeeds and admit you to gardens beneath which rivers flow. But whoever of you disbelieves after that has certainly strayed from the soundness of the way So for their breaking of the covenant We cursed them and made their hearts hard. They distort words from their proper usages and have forgotten a portion of that of which they were reminded. And you will still observe deceit among them, except a few of them. But pardon them and overlook their misdeeds. Indeed, Allah loves the doers of good And from those who say, "We are Christians" We took their covenant; but they forgot a portion of that of which they were reminded. Thus We caused among them animosity and hatred until the Day of Resurrection. And Allah is going to inform them about what they used to do O People of the Scripture, there has come to you Our Messenger making clear to you much of what you used to conceal of the Scripture and overlooking much. There has come to you from Allah a light and a clear Book By which Allah guides those who pursue His pleasure to the ways of peace and brings them out from darknesses into the light, by His permission, and guides them to a straight path And they have certainly disbelieved who say that Allah is Christ, the son of Mary. Say, "Then who could prevent Allah at all if He had intended to destroy Christ, the son of Mary, or his mother or everyone on the earth?" And to Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them. He creates what He wills, and Allah is over all things competent But the Jews and the Christians say, "We are the children of Allah and His beloved." Say, "Then why does He punish you for your sins?" Rather, you are human beings from among those He has created. He forgives whom He wills, and He punishes whom He wills. And to Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them, and to Him is the final destination O People of the Scripture, there has come to you Our Messenger to make clear to you the religion after a period of suspension of messengers, lest you say, "There came not to us any bringer of good tidings or a warner." But there has come to you a bringer of good tidings and a warner. And Allah is over all things competent

Section 4 · Verses 20–26

And mention, O Muhammad, when Moses said to his people, "O my people, remember the favor of Allah upon you when He appointed among you prophets and made you possessors and gave you that which He had not given anyone among the worlds O my people, enter the Holy Land which Allah has assigned to you and do not turn back from fighting in Allah 's cause and thus become losers They said, "O Moses, verily within it is a people of tyrannical strength, and verily, we will never enter it until they leave it; but if they leave it, then we will enter Said two men from those who feared to disobey upon whom Allah had bestowed favor, "Enter upon them through the gate, for when you have entered it, you will be predominant. And upon Allah rely, if you should be believers They said, "O Moses, verily we will not enter it, ever, as long as they are within it; so go, you and your Lord, and fight. Indeed, we are remaining right here Moses said, "My Lord, indeed I do not possess except myself and my brother, so part us from the defiantly disobedient people Allah said, "Then indeed, it is forbidden to them for forty years in which they will wander throughout the land. So do not grieve over the defiantly disobedient people

Section 5 · Verses 27–34

And recite to them the story of Adam's two sons, in truth, when they both offered a sacrifice to Allah, and it was accepted from one of them but was not accepted from the other. Said the latter, "I will surely kill you." Said the former, "Indeed, Allah only accepts from the righteous who fear Him If you should raise your hand against me to kill me - I shall not raise my hand against you to kill you. Indeed, I fear Allah, Lord of the worlds Indeed I want you to obtain thereby my sin and your sin so you will be among the companions of the Fire. And that is the recompense of wrongdoers And his soul permitted to him the murder of his brother, so he killed him and became among the losers Then Allah sent a crow searching in the ground to show him how to hide the disgrace of his brother. He said, "O woe to me! Have I failed to be like this crow and hide the body of my brother?" And he became of the regretful Because of that, We decreed upon the Children of Israel that whoever kills a soul unless for a soul or for corruption done in the land - it is as if he had slain mankind entirely. And whoever saves one - it is as if he had saved mankind entirely. And our messengers had certainly come to them with clear proofs. Then indeed many of them, even after that, throughout the land, were transgressors Indeed, the penalty for those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and strive upon earth to cause corruption is none but that they be killed or crucified or that their hands and feet be cut off from opposite sides or that they be exiled from the land. That is for them a disgrace in this world; and for them in the Hereafter is a great punishment Except for those who return repenting before you apprehend them. And know that Allah is Forgiving and Merciful

Section 6 · Verses 35–43

O you who have believed, fear Allah and seek the means of nearness to Him and strive in His cause that you may succeed Indeed, those who disbelieve - if they should have all that is in the earth and the like of it with it by which to ransom themselves from the punishment of the Day of Rising, it will not be accepted from them, and for them is a painful punishment And they will wish to get out of the Fire, but never are they to emerge therefrom, and for them is an enduring punishment As for the thief, the male and the female, amputate their hands in recompense for what they committed as a deterrent punishment from Allah. And Allah is Exalted in Might and Wise But whoever repents after his wrongdoing and reforms, verily, Allah will turn to him in forgiveness. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful Do you not know that to Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth? He punishes whom He wills and forgives whom He wills, and Allah is over all things competent O Messenger, let them not grieve you who hasten into disbelief of those who say, "We believe" with their mouths, but their hearts believe not, and from among the Jews. They are avid listeners to falsehood, listening to another people who have not come to you. They distort words beyond their proper usages, saying "If you are given this, take it; but if you are not given it, then beware." But he for whom Allah intends fitnah - never will you possess power to do for him a thing against Allah. Those are the ones for whom Allah does not intend to purify their hearts. For them in this world is disgrace, and for them in the Hereafter is a great punishment They are avid listeners to falsehood, devourers of what is unlawful. So if they come to you, O Muhammad, judge between them or turn away from them. And if you turn away from them - never will they harm you at all. And if you judge, judge between them with justice. Indeed, Allah loves those who act justly But how is it that they come to you for judgement while they have the Torah, in which is the judgement of Allah? Then they turn away, even after that; but those are not in fact believers

Section 7 · Verses 44–50

Indeed, We sent down the Torah, in which was guidance and light. The prophets who submitted to Allah judged by it for the Jews, as did the rabbis and scholars by that with which they were entrusted of the Scripture of Allah, and they were witnesses thereto. So do not fear the people but fear Me, and do not exchange My verses for a small price. And whoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed - then it is those who are the disbelievers And We ordained for them therein a life for a life, an eye for an eye, a nose for a nose, an ear for an ear, a tooth for a tooth, and for wounds is legal retribution. But whoever gives up his right as charity, it is an expiation for him. And whoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed - then it is those who are the wrongdoers And We sent, following in their footsteps, Jesus, the son of Mary, confirming that which came before him in the Torah; and We gave him the Gospel, in which was guidance and light and confirming that which preceded it of the Torah as guidance and instruction for the righteous And let the People of the Gospel judge by what Allah has revealed therein. And whoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed - then it is those who are the defiantly disobedient And We have revealed to you, O Muhammad, the Book in truth, confirming that which preceded it of the Scripture and as a criterion over it. So judge between them by what Allah has revealed and do not follow their inclinations away from what has come to you of the truth. To each of you We prescribed a law and a method. Had Allah willed, He would have made you one nation united in religion, but He intended to test you in what He has given you; so race to all that is good. To Allah is your return all together, and He will then inform you concerning that over which you used to differ And judge, O Muhammad, between them by what Allah has revealed and do not follow their inclinations and beware of them, lest they tempt you away from some of what Allah has revealed to you. And if they turn away - then know that Allah only intends to afflict them with some of their own sins. And indeed, many among the people are defiantly disobedient Then is it the judgement of the time of ignorance they desire? But who is better than Allah in judgement for a people who are certain in faith

Section 8 · Verses 51–56

O you who have believed, do not take the Jews and the Christians as allies. They are in fact allies of one another. And whoever is an ally to them among you - then indeed, he is one of them. Indeed, Allah guides not the wrongdoing people So you see those in whose hearts is disease hastening into association with them, saying, "We are afraid a misfortune may strike us." But perhaps Allah will bring conquest or a decision from Him, and they will become, over what they have been concealing within themselves, regretful And those who believe will say, "Are these the ones who swore by Allah their strongest oaths that verily they were with you?" Their deeds have become worthless, and they have become losers O you who have believed, whoever of you should revert from his religion - Allah will bring forth in place of them a people He will love and who will love Him who are humble toward the believers, powerful against the disbelievers; they strive in the cause of Allah and do not fear the blame of a critic. That is the favor of Allah; He bestows it upon whom He wills. And Allah is all-Encompassing and Knowing Your ally is none but Allah and therefore His Messenger and those who have believed - those who establish prayer and give zakah, and they bow in worship And whoever is an ally of Allah and His Messenger and those who have believed - verily, the party of Allah - they will be the predominant

Section 9 · Verses 57–66

O you who have believed, take not those who have taken your religion in ridicule and amusement among the ones who were given the Scripture before you nor the disbelievers as allies. And fear Allah, if you should truly be believers And when you call to prayer, they take it in ridicule and amusement. That is because they are a people who do not use reason Say, "O People of the Scripture, do you resent us except for the fact that we have believed in Allah and what was revealed to us and what was revealed before and because most of you are defiantly disobedient Say, "Shall I inform you of what is worse than that as penalty from Allah? It is that of those whom Allah has cursed and with whom He became angry and made of them apes and pigs and slaves of Taghut. Those are worse in position and further astray from the sound way And when they come to you, they say, "We believe." But they have entered with disbelief in their hearts, and they have certainly left with it. And Allah is most knowing of what they were concealing And you see many of them hastening into sin and aggression and the devouring of what is unlawful. How wretched is what they have been doing Why do the rabbis and religious scholars not forbid them from saying what is sinful and devouring what is unlawful? How wretched is what they have been practicing And the Jews say, "The hand of Allah is chained." Chained are their hands, and cursed are they for what they say. Rather, both His hands are extended; He spends however He wills. And that which has been revealed to you from your Lord will surely increase many of them in transgression and disbelief. And We have cast among them animosity and hatred until the Day of Resurrection. Every time they kindled the fire of war against you, Allah extinguished it. And they strive throughout the land causing corruption, and Allah does not like corrupters And if only the People of the Scripture had believed and feared Allah, We would have removed from them their misdeeds and admitted them to Gardens of Pleasure And if only they upheld the law of the Torah, the Gospel, and what has been revealed to them from their Lord, they would have consumed provision from above them and from beneath their feet. Among them are a moderate community, but many of them - evil is that which they do

Section 10 · Verses 67–77

O Messenger, announce that which has been revealed to you from your Lord, and if you do not, then you have not conveyed His message. And Allah will protect you from the people. Indeed, Allah does not guide the disbelieving people Say, "O People of the Scripture, you are standing on nothing until you uphold the law of the Torah, the Gospel, and what has been revealed to you from your Lord." And that which has been revealed to you from your Lord will surely increase many of them in transgression and disbelief. So do not grieve over the disbelieving people Indeed, those who have believed in Prophet Muhammad and those before Him who were Jews or Sabeans or Christians - those among them who believed in Allah and the Last Day and did righteousness - no fear will there be concerning them, nor will they grieve We had already taken the covenant of the Children of Israel and had sent to them messengers. Whenever there came to them a messenger with what their souls did not desire, a party of messengers they denied, and another party they killed And they thought there would be no resulting punishment, so they became blind and deaf. Then Allah turned to them in forgiveness; then again many of them became blind and deaf. And Allah is Seeing of what they do And they have certainly disbelieved who say, "Allah is the Messiah, the son of Mary" while the Messiah has said, "O Children of Israel, worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord." Indeed, he who associates others with Allah - Allah has forbidden him Paradise, and his refuge is the Fire. And there are not for the wrongdoers any helpers And they have certainly disbelieved who say, "Allah is the third of three." And there is no god except one God. And if they do not desist from what they are saying, there will surely afflict the disbelievers among them a painful punishment Thus will they not repent to Allah and seek His forgiveness? And Allah is Forgiving and Merciful The Messiah, son of Mary, was not but a messenger; other messengers have passed on before him. And his mother was a supporter of truth. They both used to eat food. Look how We make clear to them the signs; then look how they are deluded Say, "Do you worship besides Allah that which holds for you no power of harm or benefit while it is Allah who is the Hearing, the Knowing Say, "O People of the Scripture, do not exceed limits in your religion beyond the truth and do not follow the inclinations of a people who had gone astray before and misled many and have strayed from the soundness of the way

Section 11 · Verses 78–81

Cursed were those who disbelieved among the Children of Israel by the tongue of David and of Jesus, the son of Mary. That was because they disobeyed and habitually transgressed And they used not to prevent one another from wrongdoing that they did. How wretched was that which they were doing You see many of them becoming allies of those who disbelieved. How wretched is that which they have put forth for themselves in that Allah has become angry with them, and in the punishment they will abide eternally And if they had believed in Allah and the Prophet and in what was revealed to him, they would not have taken them as allies; but many of them are defiantly disobedient
