1. Allah alone
should ask for help
1. Al-Fatiha: In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful (1) All the
praises and thanks be to Allah, the Lord of the 'Âlamîn (mankind, jinn and all
that exists). (2) The Most Gracious, the Most Merciful (3) The Only Owner (and
the Only Ruling Judge) of the Day of Recompense (i.e. the Day of Resurrection)
(4) You (Alone) we worship, and You (Alone) we ask for help (for
each and everything). (5) Guide us to the Straight Way. (6) The Way of those on
whom You have bestowed Your Grace, not (the way) of those who earned Your Anger
(such as the Jews), nor of those who went astray (such as the Christians).
(Al-Fatiha-7)
2. Quran, guidance for
Muttaqûn
2. Al-Baqara: In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Alif-Lâm-Mîm.
(None but Allâh (Alone) knows these letters meanings) (1) This is the Book (the
Qur'ân), whereof there is no doubt, a guidance to those who are Al-Muttaqûn
[the pious and righteous persons who fear Allâh much (abstain from all kinds of
sins and evil deeds which He has forbidden) and love Allâh much (perform all
kinds of good deeds which He has ordained)]. (2) Who believe in the Ghaib (unseen)
and perform As-Salât (Iqâmat-as-Salât), and spend out of
what we have provided for them. (3) And who believe in (the Qurân and
the Sunnah) which has been sent down (revealed) to you (Muhammad Peace be upon him)
and in that which we sent down before (The Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel
(Gospel), etc.) and they believe with certainty in the Hereafter.
(Resurrection, recompense of their good and bad deeds, Paradise
and Hell,) (4) They are on (true) guidance from their Lord, and they are the
successful. (Al-Baqara-5)
3. Those
who disbelieve
Verily, those
who disbelieve, it is the same to them whether you (O Muhammad Peace be
upon him) warn them or do not warn them, they will not believe. (6) Allâh has
set a seal on their hearts and on their hearings, (i.e. they are closed from
accepting Allâh's Guidance), and on their eyes there is a covering. Theirs will
be a great torment. (Al-Baqara-7)
4. Make
not mischief on the earth
And of mankind,
there are some (hypocrites) who say: "We believe in Allâh and the Last
Day" while in fact they believe not. (8) They (think to) deceive Allâh and
those who believe, while they only deceive themselves, and perceive (it) not!
(9) In their hearts is a disease (of doubt and hypocrisy) and Allâh has
increased their disease. A painful torment is theirs because they used to
tell lies. (10) And when it is said to them: "Make not
mischief on the earth," they say: "We are only
peacemakers." (11) Verily! They are the ones who make mischief, but they
perceive not. (12) And when it is said to them (hypocrites): "Believe as
the people (followers of Muhammad Peace be upon him, Al-Ansâr and Al-Muhajirûn)
have believed," they say: "Shall we believe as the fools have
believed?" Verily, they are the fools, but they know not (13) And when they
meet those who believe, they say: "We believe," but when they are
alone with their Shayâtin (devils - polytheists, hypocrites), they say:
"Truly, we are with you; verily, we were but mocking." (14) Allâh
mocks at them and gives them increase in their wrong-doings to wander blindly.
(15) These are they who have purchased error for guidance, so
their commerce was profitless. And they were not guided. (16) Their likeness is
as the likeness of one who kindled a fire; then, when it lighted all around
him, Allâh took away their light and left them in darkness. (So) they could not
see. (17) They are deaf, dumb, and blind, so they return not (to
the Right Path). (18) Or like a rainstorm from the sky, wherein is darkness,
thunder, and lightning. They thrust their fingers in their ears to keep out the
stunning thunderclap for fear of death. But Allâh ever encompasses the
disbelievers (i.e. Allâh will gather them all together). (19) The lightning
almost snatches away their sight, whenever it flashes for them, they walk
therein, and when darkness covers them, they stand still. And if Allâh willed,
He could have taken away their hearing and their sight. Certainly, Allâh has
power over all things. (Al-Baqara-20
5. Worship
your Lord
O mankind! Worship
your Lord (Allâh), Who created you and those who were before you so
that you may become Al-Muttaqûn (the pious).(21) Who has made the
earth a resting place for you, and the sky as a canopy, and sent down water
(rain) from the sky and brought forth therewith fruits as a provision for you.
Then do not set up rivals unto Allâh (in worship) while you know
(that He Alone has the right to be worshipped). (Al-Baqara-22)
6. You
can never produce a Sûrah of the like thereof
And if you
(Arab pagans, Jews, and Christians) are in doubt concerning that which We have
sent down (i.e. the Qur'ân) to Our slave (Muhammad Peace be upon him), then
produce a Sûrah (chapter) of the like thereof and call your witnesses
(supporters and helpers) besides Allâh, if you are truthful. (23) But if you do
it not, and you can never do it, then fear the Fire (Hell) whose
fuel is men and stones, prepared for the disbelievers. (Al-Baqara-24)
7. Those
who believe and do righteous good deeds
And give glad
tidings to those who believe and do righteous good deeds that for them will be
Gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise).
Every time they will be provided with a fruit there from, they will say:
"This is what we were provided with before," and they will be given
things in resemblance (i.e. in the same form but different in taste) and they
shall have therein Azwâjun Mutahharatun (purified mates or wives), and they
will abide therein forever. (Al-Baqara-25)
8. Who
are the losers?
Verily, Allâh
is not ashamed to set forth a parable even of a mosquito or so much more when
it is bigger (or less when it is smaller) than it. And as for those who
believe, they know that it is the Truth from their Lord, but as for those who
disbelieve, they say: "What did Allâh intend by this parable?" By it
He misleads many, and many He guides thereby. And He misleads thereby only
those who are Al-Fâsiqûn (the rebellious, disobedient to Allâh). (26) Those
who break Allâh's Covenant after ratifying it, and sever what Allâh has
ordered to be joined (as regards Allâh's religion of Islâmic Monotheism, and to
practice its legal laws on the earth and also as regards keeping good relations
with kith and kin), and do mischief on earth, it is they who are the losers. (Al-Baqara-27)
9. Allah
will again bring you to life.
How can you disbelieve in Allâh? Seeing that
you were dead and He gave you life. Then He will give you death, then again
will bring you to life (on the Day of Resurrection) and then unto Him you will
return. (28) He it is Who created for you all that is on earth. Then He rose over
(Istawâ) towards the heaven and made them seven heavens and He is the
All-Knower of everything.
(Al-Baqara-29)
10.
Allah taught Adam all the names
And (remember)
when your Lord said to the angels: "Verily, I am going to place (mankind)
generations after generations on earth." They said: "Will You place
therein those who will make mischief therein and shed blood, -
while we glorify You with praises and thanks and sanctify You."
He (Allâh) said: "I know that which you do not know." (30) And He
taught Adam all the names (of everything), then He showed them to the angels
and said, "Tell Me the names of these if you are truthful." (31) They
(angels) said: "Glory be to You, we have no knowledge except what you have
taught us. Verily, it is You, the All-Knower, the All-Wise." (32) He said:
"O Adam! Inform them of their names," and when he had informed them
of their names, He said: "Did I not tell you that I know the Ghaib
(unseen) in the heavens and the earth, and I know what you reveal and what you
have been concealing?" (33) And (remember) when We said to the angels:
"Prostrate yourselves before Adam.” And they prostrated except Iblîs
(Satan), he refused and was proud and was one of the disbelievers
(disobedient to Allâh) (Al-Baqara-34)
11. Earth is a dwelling place for a time
And We said:
"O Adam! Dwell you and your wife in the Paradise
and eat both of you freely with pleasure and delight, of things therein as
wherever you will, but come not near this tree or you both will be of the
Zâlimûn (wrong-doers)." (35) Then the Shaitân (Satan) made them slip
therefrom (the Paradise), and got them out
from that in which they were. We said: "Get you down, all, with enmity
between yourselves. On earth will be a dwelling place for you and an enjoyment
for a time." (36) Then Adam received from his Lord Words. And his Lord
pardoned him (accepted his repentance). Verily, He is the One Who forgives
(accepts repentance), the Most Merciful (37) We said: "Get down all of you
from this place (the Paradise), then whenever there comes to you Guidance
from Me, and whoever follows My Guidance, there shall be no fear on
them, nor shall they grieve (38) But those who disbelieve and belie Our
Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.), such
are the dwellers of the Fire, They shall abide therein forever. (Al-Baqara-39)
12. Mix not truth with falsehood
O Children of Israel!
Remember My Favour which I bestowed upon you, and fulfill (your obligations to)
My Covenant (with you) so that I fulfill (My Obligations to) your covenant
(with Me), and fear none but Me. (40) And believe in what I
have sent down (this Qur'ân), confirming that which is with you, [the
Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)], and be not the first to disbelieve
therein, and buy not with My Verses [the Taurât (Torah) and the
Injeel (Gospel)] a small price (i.e. getting a small gain by
selling My Verses), and fear Me and Me Alone.). (41) And mix
not truth with falsehood, nor conceal the truth [i.e. Muhammad Peace be
upon him is Allâh's Messenger and his qualities are written in your Scriptures,
the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)] while you know (the truth) (42) And
perform As-Salât (Iqâmat-as-Salât), and give Zakât, and bow down
(or submit yourselves with obedience to Allâh) along with Ar¬Raki'ûn.(43)
Enjoin you Al-Birr (piety and righteousness and each and every act of obedience
to Allâh) on the people and you forget (to practise it) yourselves, while you
recite the Scripture [the Taurât (Torah)]! Have you then no sense? (44) And
seek help in patience and As-Salât (the prayer) and truly it is extremely heavy
and hard except for Al-Khâshi'ûn [i.e. the true believers in Allâh -
those who obey Allâh with full submission, fear much from His Punishment, and
believe in His Promise (Paradise,) and in His Warnings (Hell, )]. (45) (They
are those) who are certain that they are going to meet their Lord, and that
unto Him they are going to return. (Al-Baqara-46)
13. Allah
bestowed upon Israelite
O Children of Israel!
Remember My Favour which I bestowed upon you and that I preferred you to the
'Alamîn [mankind and jinn (of your time period, in the past)]. (47) And fear a
Day (of Judgement) when a person shall not avail another, nor will intercession
be accepted from him nor will compensation be taken from him nor will they be
helped. (48)
14.
Allah delivered from Pharaoh
And (remember)
when We delivered you from Fir'aun's (Pharaoh) people, who were afflicting you
with a horrible torment, killing your sons and sparing your women, and therein
was a mighty trial from your Lord. (Al-Baqara-49)
