| [YA]: "How should I fear (the beings) ye associate with Allah, when ye fear not to give partners to Allah without any warrant having been given to you? Which of (us) two parties hath more right to security? (tell me) if ye know. [RK]:"Why should I fear your idols? It is you who should be afraid, since you worship instead of GOD idols that are utterly powerless to help you. Which side is more deserving of security, if you know?" | ||||
| 252 | [6:88] Line:877 |
| ||
| [YA]: This is the guidance of Allah: He giveth that guidance to whom He pleaseth, of His worshippers. If they were to join other gods with Him, all that they did would be vain for them. [RK]:Such is GOD's guidance, with which He guides whomever He chooses from among His servants. Had any of them fallen into idolatry, their works would have been nullified. | ||||
| 253 | [6:93] Line:882 |
| ||
| [YA]: Who can be more wicked than one who inventeth a lie against Allah, or saith, "I have received inspiration," when he hath received none, or (again) who saith, "I can reveal the like of what Allah hath revealed"? If thou couldst but see how the wicked (do fare) in the flood of confusion at death! - the angels stretch forth their hands, (saying),"Yield up your souls: this day shall ye receive your reward,- a penalty of shame, for that ye used to tell lies against Allah, and scornfully to reject of His signs!" [RK]:Who is more evil than one who fabricates lies and attributes them to GOD, or says, "I have received divine inspiration," when no such inspiration was given to him, or says, "I can write the same as GOD's revelations?" If only you could see the transgressors at the time of death! The angels extend their hands to them, saying, "Let go of your souls. Today, you have incurred a shameful retribution for saying about GOD other than the truth, and for being too arrogant to accept His revelations. | ||||

| ||
| [YA]: "And behold! ye come to us bare and alone as We created you for the first time: ye have left behind you all (the favours) which We bestowed on you: We see not with you your intercessors whom ye thought to be partners in your affairs: so now all relations between you have been cut off, and your (pet) fancies have left you in the lurch!" [RK]:"You have come back to us as individuals, just as we created you the first time, and you have left behind what we provided for you. We do not see with you the intercessors that you idolized and claimed that they will help you. All ties among you have been severed; the idols you set up have abandoned you." | ||||
| 256 | [6:101] Line:890 |
| ||
| [YA]: To Him is due the primal origin of the heavens and the earth: How can He have a son when He hath no consort? He created all things, and He hath full knowledge of all things. [RK]:The Initiator of the heavens and the earth. How can He have a son, when He never had a mate? He created all things, and He is fully aware of all things. | ||||
| 257 | [6:108] Line:897 |
| ||
| [YA]: Revile not ye those whom they call upon besides Allah, lest they out of spite revile Allah in their ignorance. Thus have We made alluring to each people its own doings. In the end will they return to their Lord, and We shall then tell them the truth of all that they did. [RK]:Do not curse the idols they set up beside GOD, lest they blaspheme and curse GOD, out of ignorance. We have adorned the works of every group in their eyes. Ultimately, they return to their Lord, then He informs them of everything they had done. | ||||
| 258 | [6:111] Line:900 |
| ||
| [YA]: Even if We did send unto them angels, and the dead did speak unto them, and We gathered together all things before their very eyes, they are not the ones to believe, unless it is in Allah's plan. But most of them ignore (the truth). [RK]:Even if we sent down the angels to them; even if the dead spoke to them; even if we summoned every miracle before them; they cannot believe unless GOD wills it. Indeed, most of them are ignorant. | ||||
| 259 | [6:118] Line:907 |
| ||
| [YA]: So eat of (meats) on which Allah's name hath been pronounced, if ye have faith in His signs. [RK]:You shall eat from that upon which GOD's name has been pronounced, if you truly believe in His revelations. | ||||
| 260 | [6:120] Line:909 |
| ||
| [YA]: Eschew all sin, open or secret: those who earn sin will get due recompense for their "earnings." [RK]:You shall avoid obvious sins, as well as the hidden ones. Those who have earned sins will surely pay for their transgressions. | ||||
| 261 | [6:122] Line:911 |
| ||
| [YA]: Can he who was dead, to whom We gave life, and a light whereby he can walk amongst men, be like him who is in the depths of darkness, from which he can never come out? Thus to those without faith their own deeds seem pleasing. [RK]:Is one who was dead and we granted him life, and provided him with light that enables him to move among the people, equal to one in total darkness from which he can never exit? The works of the disbelievers are thus adorned in their eyes. | ||||
| 262 | [6:122] Line:911 |

| 263 | [6:124] Line:913 |
| ||
| [YA]: When there comes to them a sign (from Allah), They say: "We shall not believe until we receive one (exactly) like those received by Allah's messengers." Allah knoweth best where (and how) to carry out His mission. Soon will the wicked be overtaken by humiliation before Allah, and a severe punishment, for all their plots. [RK]:When a powerful proof comes to them, they say, "We will not believe, unless we are given what is given to GOD's messengers!" GOD knows exactly who is best qualified to deliver His message. Such criminals will suffer debasement at GOD, and terrible retribution as a consequence of their evil scheming. | ||||
| 264 | [6:125] Line:914 |
| ||
| [YA]: Those whom Allah (in His plan) willeth to guide,- He openeth their breast to Islam; those whom He willeth to leave straying,- He maketh their breast close and constricted, as if they had to climb up to the skies: thus doth Allah (heap) the penalty on those who refuse to believe. [RK]:Whomever GOD wills to guide, He renders his chest wide open to Submission. And whomever He wills to send astray, He renders his chest intolerant and straitened, like one who climbs towards the sky. GOD thus places a curse upon those who refuse to believe. | ||||
| 265 | [6:127] Line:916 |
| ||
| [YA]: For them will be a home of peace in the presence of their Lord: He will be their friend, because they practised (righteousness). [RK]:They have deserved the abode of peace at their Lord; He is their Lord and Master, as a reward for their works. | ||||
| 266 | [6:129] Line:918 |
| ||
| [YA]: Thus do we make the wrong-doers turn to each other, because of what they earn. [RK]:We thus match the wicked to be companions of each other, as a punishment for their transgressions. | ||||
| 267 | [6:130] Line:919 |
| ||
| [YA]: "O ye assembly of Jinns and men! came there not unto you messengers from amongst you, setting forth unto you My signs, and warning you of the meeting of this Day of yours?" They will say: "We bear witness against ourselves." It was the life of this world that deceived them. So against themselves will they bear witness that they rejected Faith. [RK]:O you jinns and humans, did you not receive messengers from among you, who narrated to you My revelations, and warned you about the meeting of this day? They will say, "We bear witness against ourselves." They were totally preoccupied with the worldly life, and they will bear witness against themselves that they were disbelievers. | ||||
| 268 | [6:136] Line:925 |
| ||
| [YA]: Out of what Allah hath produced in abundance in tilth and in cattle, they assigned Him a share: they say, according to their fancies: "This is for Allah, and this" - for our "partners"! but the share of their" partners "reacheth not Allah, whilst the share of Allah reacheth their "partners" ! evil (and unjust) is their assignment! [RK]:They even set aside a share of GOD's provisions of crops and livestock, saying, "This share belongs to GOD," according to their claims, "and this share belongs to our idols." However, what was set aside for their idols never reached GOD, while the share they set aside for GOD invariably went to their idols. Miserable indeed is their judgment. | ||||

However, what was set aside for their idols never reached GOD, while the share they set aside for GOD invariably went to their idols. Miserable indeed is their judgment. | ||||
| 270 | [6:138] Line:927 |
| ||
| [YA]: And they say that such and such cattle and crops are taboo, and none should eat of them except those whom - so they say - We wish; further, there are cattle forbidden to yoke or burden, and cattle on which, (at slaughter), the name of Allah is not pronounced; - inventions against Allah's name: soon will He requite them for their inventions. [RK]:They said, "These are livestock and crops that are prohibited; no one shall eat them except whomever we permit," so they claimed. They also prohibited the riding of certain livestock. Even the livestock they ate, they never pronounced GOD's name as they sacrificed them. Such are innovations attributed to Him. He will surely requite them for their innovations. | ||||
| 271 | [6:140] Line:929 |
| ||
| [YA]: Lost are those who slay their children, from folly, without knowledge, and forbid food which Allah hath provided for them, inventing (lies) against Allah. They have indeed gone astray and heeded no guidance. [RK]:Losers indeed are those who killed their children foolishly, due to their lack of knowledge, and prohibited what GOD has provided for them, and followed innovations attributed to GOD. They have gone astray; they are not guided. | ||||
| 272 | [6:143] Line:932 |
| ||
| [YA]: (Take) eight (head of cattle) in (four) pairs: of sheep a pair, and of goats a pair; say, hath He forbidden the two males, or the two females, or (the young) which the wombs of the two females enclose? Tell me with knowledge if ye are truthful: [RK]:Eight kinds of livestock: regarding the two kinds of sheep, and the two kinds of goats, say, "Is it the two males that He prohibited, or the two females, or the contents of the wombs of the two females? Tell me what you know, if you are truthful." | ||||
| 273 | [6:144] Line:933 |
| ||
| [YA]: Of camels a pair, and oxen a pair; say, hath He forbidden the two males, or the two females, or (the young) which the wombs of the two females enclose? - Were ye present when Allah ordered you such a thing? But who doth more wrong than one who invents a lie against Allah, to lead astray men without knowledge? For Allah guideth not people who do wrong. [RK]:Regarding the two kinds of camels, and the two kinds of cattle, say, "Is it the two males that He prohibited, or the two females, or the contents of the wombs of the two females? Were you witnesses when GOD decreed such prohibitions for you? Who is more evil than those who invent such lies and attribute them to GOD? They thus mislead the people without knowledge. GOD does not guide such evil people." | ||||
| 274 | [6:145] Line:934 |
| ||
| [YA]: Say: "I find not in the message received by me by inspiration any (meat) forbidden to be eaten by one who wishes to eat it, unless it be dead meat, or blood poured forth, or the flesh of swine,- for it is an abomination - or, what is impious, (meat) on which a name has been invoked, other than Allah's". But (even so), if a person is forced by necessity, without wilful disobedience, nor transgressing due limits,- thy Lord is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful. [RK]:Say, "I do not find in the revelations given to me any food that is prohibited for any eater except: (1) carrion, (2) running blood, (3) the meat of pigs, for it is contaminated, and (4) the meat of animals blasphemously dedicated to other than GOD." If one is forced (to eat these), without being deliberate or malicious, then your Lord is Forgiver, Most Merciful. | ||||
| 275 | [6:152] Line:941 |
| ||
| [YA]: And come not nigh to the orphan's property, except to improve it, until he attain the age of full strength; give measure and weight with (full) justice;- no burden do We place on any soul, but that which it can bear;- whenever ye speak, speak justly, even if a near relative is concerned; and fulfil the covenant of Allah: thus doth He command you, that ye may remember. [RK]:You shall not touch the orphans' money except in the most righteous manner, until they reach maturity. You shall give full weight and full measure when you trade, equitably. We do not burden any soul beyond its means. You shall be absolutely just when you bear witness, even against your relatives. You shall fulfill your covenant with GOD. These are His commandments to you, that you may take heed. | ||||
| 276 | [6:156] Line:945 |
| ||
| [YA]: Lest ye should say: "The Book was sent down to two Peoples before us, and for our part, we remained unacquainted with all that they learned by assiduous study:" [RK]:Now you can no longer say, "The scripture was sent down to two groups before us, and we were unaware of their teachings." | ||||
| 277 | [6:157] Line:946 |
| ||
| [YA]: Or lest ye should say: "If the Book had only been sent down to us, we should have followed its guidance better than they." Now then hath come unto you a clear (sign) from your Lord,- and a guide and a mercy: then who could do more wrong than one who rejecteth Allah's signs, and turneth away therefrom? In good time shall We requite those who turn away from Our signs, with a dreadful penalty, for their turning away. [RK]:Nor can you say, "If only a scripture could come down to us, we would be better guided than they." A proven scripture has now come to you from your Lord, and a beacon, and a mercy. Now, who is more evil than one who rejects these proofs from GOD, and disregards them? We will commit those who disregard our proofs to the worst retribution for their heedlessness. | ||||
| 278 | [6:159] Line:948 |
| ||
| [YA]: As for those who divide their religion and break up into sects, thou hast no part in them in the least: their affair is with Allah: He will in the end tell them the truth of all that they did. [RK]:Those who divide themselves into sects do not belong with you. Their judgment rests with GOD, then He will inform them of everything they had done. | ||||
| 279 | [6:159] Line:948 |

| 280 | [6:161] Line:950 |
| ||
| [YA]: Say: "Verily, my Lord hath guided me to a way that is straight,- a religion of right,- the path (trod) by Abraham the true in Faith, and he (certainly) joined not gods with Allah." [RK]:Say, "My Lord has guided me in a straight path - the perfect religion of Abraham, monotheism. He never was an idol worshiper." | ||||
| 281 | [6:164] Line:953 |
| ||
| [YA]: Say: "Shall I seek for (my) Cherisher other than Allah, when He is the Cherisher of all things (that exist)? Every soul draws the meed of its acts on none but itself: no bearer of burdens can bear of burdens can bear the burden of another. Your goal in the end is towards Allah: He will tell you the truth of the things wherein ye disputed." [RK]:Say, "Shall I seek other than GOD as a lord, when He is the Lord of all things? No soul benefits except from its own works, and none bears the burden of another. Ultimately, you return to your Lord, then He informs you regarding all your disputes." | ||||
| 282 | [7:5] Line:959 |
| ||
| [YA]: When (thus) Our punishment took them, no cry did they utter but this: "Indeed we did wrong." [RK]:Their utterance when our retribution came to them was: "Indeed, we have been transgressors." | ||||
| 283 | [7:5] Line:959 |
| ||
| [YA]: When (thus) Our punishment took them, no cry did they utter but this: "Indeed we did wrong." [RK]:Their utterance when our retribution came to them was: "Indeed, we have been transgressors." | ||||
| 284 | [7:9] Line:963 |
| ||
| [YA]: Those whose scale will be light, will be their souls in perdition, for that they wrongfully treated Our signs. [RK]:As for those whose weights are light, they will be the ones who lost their souls as a consequence of disregarding our revelations, unjustly. | ||||
| 285 | [7:13] Line:967 |
| ||
| [YA]: (Allah) said: "Get thee down from this: it is not for thee to be arrogant here: get out, for thou art of the meanest (of creatures)." [RK]:He said, "Therefore, you must go down, for you are not to be arrogant here. Get out; you are debased." | ||||
| 286 | [7:37] Line:991 |
| ||
| [YA]: Who is more unjust than one who invents a lie against Allah or rejects His Signs? For such, their portion appointed must reach them from the Book (of decrees): until, when our messengers (of death) arrive and take their souls, they say: "Where are the things that ye used to invoke besides Allah?" They will reply, "They have left us in the lurch," And they will bear witness against themselves, that they had rejected Allah. [RK]:Who is more evil than those who invent lies about GOD, or reject His revelations? These will get their share, in accordance with the scripture, then, when our messengers come to terminate their lives, they will say, "Where are the idols you used to implore beside GOD?" They will say, "They have abandoned us." They will bear witness against themselves that they were disbelievers. | ||||

| 288 | [7:39] Line:993 |
| ||
| [YA]: Then the first will say to the last: "See then! No advantage have ye over us; so taste ye of the penalty for all that ye did !" [RK]:The ancestral group will say to the later group, "Since you had an advantage over us, taste the retribution for your own sins." | ||||
| 289 | [7:39] Line:993 |

| 290 | [7:43] Line:997 |
| ||
| [YA]: And We shall remove from their hearts any lurking sense of injury;- beneath them will be rivers flowing;- and they shall say: "Praise be to Allah, who hath guided us to this (felicity): never could we have found guidance, had it not been for the guidance of Allah: indeed it was the truth, that the messengers of our Lord brought unto us." And they shall hear the cry: "Behold! the garden before you! Ye have been made its inheritors, for your deeds (of righteousness)." [RK]:We will remove all jealousy from their hearts. Rivers will flow beneath them, and they will say, "GOD be praised for guiding us. We could not possibly be guided, if it were not that GOD has guided us. The messengers of our Lord did bring the truth." They will be called: "This is your Paradise. You have inherited it, in return for your works." | ||||
| 291 | [7:48] Line:1002 |
| ||
| [YA]: The men on the heights will call to certain men whom they will know from their marks, saying: "Of what profit to you were your hoards and your arrogant ways? [RK]:The dwellers of the Purgatory will call on people they recognize by their looks, saying, "Your great numbers did not avail you in any way, nor did your arrogance. | ||||
| 292 | [7:51] Line:1005 |
| ||
| [YA]: "Such as took their religion to be mere amusement and play, and were deceived by the life of the world." That day shall We forget them as they forgot the meeting of this day of theirs, and as they were wont to reject Our signs. [RK]:Those who do not take their religion seriously, and are totally preoccupied with this worldly life, we forget them on that day, because they forgot that day, and because they spurned our revelations. | ||||
| 293 | [7:53] Line:1007 |
| ||
| [YA]: Do they just wait for the final fulfilment of the event? On the day the event is finally fulfilled, those who disregarded it before will say: "The messengers of our Lord did indeed bring true (tidings). Have we no intercessors now to intercede on our behalf? Or could we be sent back? then should we behave differently from our behaviour in the past." In fact they will have lost their souls, and the things they invented will leave them in the lurch. [RK]:Are they waiting until all (prophecies) are fulfilled? The day such fulfillment comes to pass, those who disregarded it in the past will say, "The messengers of our Lord have brought the truth. Are there any intercessors to intercede on our behalf? Would you send us back, so that we change our behavior, and do better works than what we did?" They have lost their souls, and their own innovations have caused their doom. | ||||

| 295 | [7:64] Line:1018 |
| ||
| [YA]: But they rejected him, and We delivered him, and those with him, in the Ark: but We overwhelmed in the flood those who rejected Our signs. They were indeed a blind people! [RK]:They rejected him. Consequently, we saved him and those with him in the ark, and we drowned those who rejected our revelations; they were blind. | ||||
| 296 | [7:70] Line:1024 |
| ||
| [YA]: They said: "Comest thou to us, that we may worship Allah alone, and give up the cult of our fathers? bring us what thou threatenest us with, if so be that thou tellest the truth!" [RK]:They said, "Did you come to make us worship GOD alone, and abandon what our parents used to worship? We challenge you to bring the doom you threaten us with, if you are truthful." | ||||
| 297 | [7:72] Line:1026 |
| ||
| [YA]: We saved him and those who adhered to him. By Our mercy, and We cut off the roots of those who rejected Our signs and did not believe. [RK]:We then saved him and those with him, by mercy from us, and we annihilated those who rejected our revelations and refused to be believers. | ||||
| 298 | [7:82] Line:1036 |
| ||
| [YA]: And his people gave no answer but this: they said, "Drive them out of your city: these are indeed men who want to be clean and pure!" [RK]:His people responded by saying, "Evict them from your town. They are people who wish to be pure." | ||||
| 299 | [7:83] Line:1037 |
| ||
| [YA]: But we saved him and his family, except his wife: she was of those who legged behind. [RK]:Consequently, we saved him and his family, but not his wife; she was with the doomed. | ||||
| 300 | [7:84] Line:1038 |
| ||
| [YA]: And we rained down on them a shower (of brimstone): Then see what was the end of those who indulged in sin and crime! [RK]:We showered them with a certain shower; note the consequences for the guilty. | ||||
