| 2-26 | Verily Allah (SWT) is not averse to set forth a parable of a gnat or what is above it | إِنَّ اللهَ لَا يَسْتَحْيِي أَنْ يَضْرِبَ مَثَلًا مَّا بَعُوْضَةً فَمَا فَوْقَهَا |
| and as for those who believe they know that it is the Truth from their Lord | فَأَمَّا الَّذِيْنَ ءَامَنُوْا فَيَعْلَمُوْنَ أَنَّهُ الْحَقُّ مِنْ رَّبِّهِمْ | |
| however as for those who disbelieve they say, “What did Allah (SWT) intend by this parable?” | وَأَمَّا الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا فَيَقُوْلُوْنَ مَاذَا أَرَادَ اللهُ بِهَاذَا مَثَلً | |
| by it He misleads many and by it He guides many and He does not mislead by it but the rebellious | يُضِلُّ بِهِ كَثِيْرًا وَيَهْدِي بِهِ كَثِيْرًا وَمَا يُضِلُّ بِهِ إِلَّا الْفَاسِقِيْنَ | |
| Is it not that every time they made a promise? a group of them threw it aside | أَوَكُلَّمَا عَاهَدُوْا عَهْدًا نَّبَذَهُ فَرِيْقٌ مِّنْهُمْ | |
| 2-100 | Nay most of them do not believe | بَلْ أَكْثَرُهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُوْنَ |
| Many from the people of the book wish they could turn you back from after your faith | وَدَّ كَثِيْرٌ مِّنْ أَهْلِ الكِتَابِ لَوْ يَرُدُّوْنَكُمْ مِّنْ بَعْدِ إِيْمَانِكُمْ | |
| to disbelieve, out of envy from themselves after the truth has been made clear to them | كُفَّارًا حَسَدًا مِّنْ عِنْدِ أَنْفُسِهِمْ مِّنْ بَعْدِ مَا تَبَيَّنَ لَهُمُ الحَقُّ | |
| so, forgive and overlook until Allah (SWT) brings His Command | فَاعْفُوْا وَأَصْفَحُوْا حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ اللهُ بِأَمْرِهِ | |
| 2-109 | certainly Allah (SWT) is over all things Powerful | إِنَّ اللهَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيْرٌ |
| Did you not see to those, they come forth from their homes, while they in thousands in fear of | أَلَمْ تَرَ إِلَى الَّذِيْنَ خَرَجُوا مِنْ دِيَارِهِمْ وَهُمْ أُلُوْفٌ حَذَرَ | |
| death? then Allah (SWT) said to them, “Die” then He gave them life indeed, Allah (SWT) | المَوْتِ فَقَالَ لَهُمُ اللهُ مُوْتُوا ثُمَّ أَحْيَاهُمْ إِنَّ اللهَ | |
| 2-243 | certainly, possesses bounty for mankind but most of the people are not grateful | لَذُوْ فَضْلٍ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَلَاكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَشْكُرُوْنَ |
| Who is the one who will lend to Allah (SWT) an excellent loan so, He multiplies it for him | مَّنْ ذَا الَّذِي يُقْرِضُ اللهَ قَرْضًا حَسَنًا فَيُضَاعِفَهُ لَهُ | |
| 2-245 | multiplied much and Allah (SWT) withholds and grants abundance and to Him you will be returned | أَضْعَافًا كِثِيْرَةً وَاللهُ يَقْبِضُ وَيَصُطُ وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُوْنَ |
| then when Talut set out with the forces he said, “indeed, Allah (SWT) will test you with a river | فَلَمَّا فَصَلَ طَالُوْتُ بِالجُنُوْدِ قَالَ إِنَّ اللهَ مُبْتَلِيْكُمْ بِنَهَرٍ | |
| so, who drinks from it then he is not from me and who does not feed on it then indeed, he is from me | فَمَنْ شَرِبَ مِنْهُ فَلَيْسَ مِنِّي وَمَن لَّمْ يَطْعَمْهُ فَإِنَّهُ مِنِّي | |
| except whom scoops a scoop by his hand” then they drank from it except a few among them | إِلَّا مَنِ اغْتَرَفَ غُرْفَةً بِيَدِهِ فَشَرِبُوا مِنْهُ إِلَّا قَلِيْلًا مِّنْهُمْ | |
| then when he crossed it, he and those who believed with him | فَلَمَّا جَاوَزَهُ هُوَ وَالَّذِيْنَ ءَامَنُوا مَعَهُ | |
| they said, “no strength for us today against Talut and his troops” | قَالُوا لَا طَاقَةَ لَنَا اليَوْمَ بِجَالُوْتَ وَجُنُوْدِهِ | |
| those who thought that they would meet Allah (SWT) said, ”how many from a small party overcame | قَالَ الَّذِيْنَ يَظُنُّوْنَ أَنَّهُم مُّلَاقُوا اللهِ كَم مِّنْ فِئَةٍ قَلِيْلَةٍ غَلَبَتْ | |
| 2-249 | a huge party by the permission of Allah (SWT) and Allah (SWT) is with the patient ones” | فِئَةً كَثِيْرَةً بِإِذْنِ اللهِ وَاللهُ مَعَ الصَّابِرِيْنَ |
| He gives the wisdom to whom He wishes and who He receives (granted) wisdom | يُؤْتِي الحِكْمَةَ مَن يَشَآءُ وَمَن يُؤْتَ الحِكْمَةَ | |
| 2-269 | then indeed, he is granted abundant good but not they remember except people of understanding | فَقَدْ أُوْتِيَ خَيْرًا كَثِيْرًا وَمَا يَذَّكَّرُ إِلَّآ أُوْلُوا الأَلْبَابِ |
| He said, “Make for me a sign” He said, “Your sign is that not you will speak to the people for three days | قَالَ رَبِّ اجْعَلْ لِّي ءَايَةً قَالَ ءَايَتُكَ أَلَّا تُكَلِّمَ النَّاسَ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ | |
| 3-41 | except gesturing and mention (remember) your Lord much and glorify in the evening and the morning | إِلَّا رَمْزًا وَاذْكُرْ رَّبَّكَ كَثِيْرًا وَسَبِّحْ بِالعَشِيِّ وَالإِبْكَارِ |
| You are the best people brought forth for mankind enjoining to the right and forbidding | كُنْتُمْ خَيْرَ أُمَّةٍ أُخْرِجَتْ لِلنَّاسِ تَأْمُرُوْنَ بِالمَعْرُوْفِ وَتَنْهَوْنَ | |
| from the wrong and believing in Allah (SWT) and if the people of the book believed surely, it would have | عَنِ المُنْكَرِ وَتُؤْمِنُوْنَ بِاللهِ وَلَوْ ءَامَنَ أَهْلُ الكِتَابِ لَكَانَ | |
| 3-110 | been better for them, among them are believers but most of them are defiantly disobedient | خَيْرًا لَّهُمْ مِّنْهُمُ المُؤْمِنُوْنَ وَأَكْثَرَهُمُ الفَاسِقُوْنَ |
| and how many from a prophet, fought with him many religious scholars but not they lost heart | وَكَأَيِّن مِّن نَّبِيٍّ قَاتَلَ مَعَهُ رِبِّيُّوْنَ كَثِيْرٌ فَمَا وَهَنُوا | |
| for what befell them in the way of Allah (SWT) and not they weakened and not they gave in | لِمَآ أَصَابَهُمْ فِي سَبِيْلِ اللهِ وَمَا ضَعُفُوا وَمَا اسْتَكَانُوا | |
| 3-146 | and Allah (SWT) loves the patient ones | وَاللهُ يُحِبُّ الصَّابِرِيْنَ |
| Indeed, you will be tested in your wealth and yourselves and you will certainly hear from those | لَتُبْلَوُنَّ فِي أَمْوَالِكُمْ وَأَنْفُسِكُمْ وَلَتَسْمَعُنَّ مِنَ الَّذِيْنَ | |
| who were given the book from before you and from those who associate, much hurt | أُوْتُوا الكِتَابَ مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ وَمِنَ الَّذِيْنَ أَشْرَكُوا أَذًى كَثِيْرًا | |
| 3-186 | and if you are patient and mindful then surely, that is from determined matters | وَإِنْ تَصْبِرُوا وَتَتَّقُوا فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ مِنْ عَزْمِ الأُمُوْرِ |
| O mankind! be mindful of your Lord who created you from a single soul | يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ اتَّقُوا رَبَّكُمُ الَّذِي خَلَقَكُمْ مِّنْ نَفْسٍ وَاحِدَةٍ | |
| and He created from it, its mate and from them both, He dispersed many men and women | وَخَلَقَ مِنْهَا زَوْجَهَا وَبَثَّ مِنْهُمَا رِجَالًا كَثِيْرًا وَنِسَآءً | |
| and be mindful of Allah (SWT) who you (all) ask from Him and the wombs | وَاتَّقُوا اللهَ الَّذِي تَسَآءَلُوْنَ بِهِ وَالأَرْحَامَ | |
| 4-1 | Indeed Allah (SWT) is over you, Ever Watchful | إِنَّ اللهَ كَانَ عَلَيْكُمْ رَقِيْبًا |
| a share belongs to the men from what the parents and relatives left | لِلرِّجَالِ نَصِيْبٌ مِّمَّا تَرَكَ الوَالِدَانِ وَالأَقْرَبُوْنَ | |
| and a share belongs to the women from what the parents and relatives left | وَلِلنِّسَآءِ نَصِيْبٌ مِّمَّا تَرَكَ الوَالِدَانِ وَالأَقْرَبُوْنَ | |
| 4-7 | from what from it was little or much a share obligatory | مِمَّا قَلَّ مِنْهُ أَوْ كَثُرَ نَصِيْبًا مَّفْرُوْضًا |
