Ruku’ 51 ركوع ٥١

None of you [believers] will attain true piety unless you give out of what you cherish: whatever you give, God knows about it very well.

Except for what Israel made unlawful for himself, all food was lawful to the Children of Israel before the Torah was revealed. Say, ‘Bring the Torah and read out [the relevant passage] if you are telling the truth.

Those who persist in making up lies and attributing them to God after this are the wrongdoers.’

[Prophet], say, ‘God speaks the truth, so follow Abraham’s religion: he had true faith and he was never an idolater.’

The first House [of worship] to be established for people was the one at Mecca. It is a blessed place; a source of guidance for all people;

there are clear signs in it; it is the place where Abraham stood to pray; whoever enters it is safe. Pilgrimage to the House is a duty owed to God by people who are able to undertake it. Those who reject this [should know that] God has no need of anyone.

Say, ‘People of the Book, why do you reject God’s revelations? God witnesses everything you do.’

Say, ‘People of the Book, why do you turn the believers away from God’s path and try to make it crooked, when you yourselves [should be] witnesses to the [truth]? God is not heedless of anything you do.’

You who believe, some of those who were given the Scripture would turn you into disbelievers if you were to yield to them.

How can you disbelieve when God’s revelations are being recited to you and His Messenger is living among you? Whoever holds fast to God will be guided to the straight path.
