بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

These two kinds of people disagree about their Lord. Garments of fire will be tailored for those who disbelieve; scalding water will be poured over their heads,

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

melting their insides as well as their skins;

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

there will be iron crooks to restrain them;

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

whenever, in their anguish, they try to escape, they will be pushed back in and told, ‘Taste the suffering of the Fire.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

But God will admit those who believe and do good deeds to Gardens graced with flowing streams; there they will be adorned with golden bracelets and pearls; there they will have silken garments.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

They were guided to good speech and to the path of the One Worthy of all Praise.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

As for the disbelievers, who bar others from God’s path and from the Sacred Mosque- which We made for all people, residents and visitors alike- and who try to violate it with wrongdoing, We shall make them taste a painful punishment.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

We showed Abraham the site of the House, saying, ‘Do not assign partners to Me. Purify My House for those who circle around it, those who stand to pray, and those who bow and prostrate themselves.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Proclaim the Pilgrimage to all people. They will come to you on foot and on every kind of swift mount, emerging from every deep mountain pass

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

to attain benefits and celebrate God’s name, on specified days, over the livestock He has provided for them- feed yourselves and the poor and unfortunate-

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

so let the pilgrims perform their acts of cleansing, fulfil their vows, and circle around the Ancient House.’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

All this [is ordained by God]: anyone who honours the sacred ordinances of God will have good rewards from his Lord. Livestock have been made lawful to you, except for what has been explicitly forbidden. Shun the filth of idolatrous beliefs and practices and shun false utterances.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Devote yourselves to God and assign Him no partners, for the person who does so is like someone who has been hurled down from the skies and snatched up by the birds or flung to a distant place by the wind.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

All this [is ordained by God]: those who honour God’s rites show the piety of their hearts.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

Live-stock are useful to you until the set time. Then their place of sacrifice is near the Ancient House:

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

We appointed acts of devotion for every community, for them to celebrate God’s name over the livestock He provided for them: your God is One, so devote yourselves to Him. [Prophet], give good news to the humble

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

whose hearts fill with awe whenever God is mentioned, who endure whatever happens to them with patience, who keep up the prayer, who give to others out of Our provision to them.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

We have made camels part of God’s sacred rites for you. There is much good in them for you, so invoke God’s name over them as they are lined up for sacrifice, then, when they have fallen down dead, feed yourselves and those who do not ask, as well as those who do. We have subjected them to you in this way so that you may be thankful.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem

It is neither their meat nor their blood that reaches God but your piety. He has subjected them to you in this way so that you may glorify God for having guided you. Give good news to those who do good:

M.A.S. Abdel Haleem
