| ||
[YA]: Behold, ye are those invited to spend (of your substance) in the Way of Allah: But among you are some that are niggardly. But any who are niggardly are so at the expense of their own souls. But Allah is free of all wants, and it is ye that are needy. If ye turn back (from the Path), He will substitute in your stead another people; then they would not be like you! [RK]:You are invited to spend in the cause of GOD, but some of you turn stingy. The stingy are stingy towards their own souls. GOD is Rich, while you are poor. If you turn away, He will substitute other people in your place, and they will not be like you. | ||||
52 | [52:46] Line:4781 |
| ||
[YA]: The Day when their plotting will avail them nothing and no help shall be given them. [RK]:On that day, their schemes will not protect them, nor will they be helped. | ||||
53 | [53:26] Line:4810 |
| ||
[YA]: How many-so-ever be the angels in the heavens, their intercession will avail nothing except after Allah has given leave for whom He pleases and that he is acceptable to Him. [RK]:Not even the angels in heaven possess authority to intercede. The only ones permitted by GOD are those who act in accordance with His will and His approval. | ||||
54 | [53:28] Line:4812 |
| ||
[YA]: But they have no knowledge therein. They follow nothing but conjecture; and conjecture avails nothing against Truth. [RK]:They had no knowledge about this; they only conjectured. Conjecture is no substitute for the truth. | ||||
55 | [53:48] Line:4832 |
| ||
[YA]: That it is He Who giveth wealth and satisfaction; [RK]:He is the One who makes you rich or poor. | ||||
56 | [54:5] Line:4851 |
| ||
[YA]: Mature wisdom;- but (the preaching of) Warners profits them not. [RK]:Great wisdom; but all the warnings have been in vain. | ||||
57 | [57:24] Line:5099 |
| ||
[YA]: Such persons as are covetous and commend covetousness to men. And if any turn back (from Allah's Way), verily Allah is Free of all Needs, Worthy of all Praise. [RK]:They are stingy, and enjoin the people to be stingy. If one turns away, then GOD is the Rich, the Praiseworthy. | ||||
58 | [58:17] Line:5121 |
| ||
[YA]: Of no profit whatever to them, against Allah, will be their riches nor their sons: they will be Companions of the Fire, to dwell therein (for aye)! [RK]:Neither their money, nor their children will help them against GOD. They have incurred the hellfire, wherein they abide forever. | ||||
59 | [59:7] Line:5133 |
| ||
[YA]: What Allah has bestowed on His Messenger (and taken away) from the people of the townships,- belongs to Allah,- to His Messenger and to kindred and orphans, the needy and the wayfarer; In order that it may not (merely) make a circuit between the wealthy among you. So take what the Messenger assigns to you, and deny yourselves that which he withholds from you. And fear Allah; for Allah is strict in Punishment. [RK]:Whatever GOD restored to His messenger from the (defeated) communities shall go to GOD and His messenger (in the form of a charity). You shall give it to the relatives, the orphans, the poor, and the traveling alien. Thus, it will not remain monopolized by the strong among you. You may keep the spoils given to you by the messenger, but do not take what he enjoins you from taking. You shall reverence GOD. GOD is strict in enforcing retribution. | ||||
60 | [60:6] Line:5156 |
| ||
[YA]: There was indeed in them an excellent example for you to follow,- for those whose hope is in Allah and in the Last Day. But if any turn away, truly Allah is Free of all Wants, Worthy of all Praise. [RK]:A good example has been set by them for those who seek GOD and the Last Day. As for those who turn away, GOD is in no need (of them), Most Praiseworthy. | ||||
61 | [64:6] Line:5205 |
| ||
[YA]: That was because there came to them messengers with Clear Signs, but they said: "Shall (mere) human beings direct us?" So they rejected (the Message) and turned away. But Allah can do without (them): and Allah is free of all needs, worthy of all praise. [RK]:This is because their messengers went to them with clear proofs, but they said, "Shall we follow humans like us?" They disbelieved and turned away. GOD does not need them; GOD is in no need, Praiseworthy. | ||||

[YA]: Allah sets forth, for an example to the Unbelievers, the wife of Noah and the wife of Lut: they were (respectively) under two of our righteous servants, but they were false to their (husbands), and they profited nothing before Allah on their account, but were told: "Enter ye the Fire along with (others) that enter!" [RK]:GOD cites as examples of those who disbelieved the wife of Noah and the wife of Lot. They were married to two of our righteous servants, but they betrayed them and, consequently, they could not help them at all against GOD. The two of them were told, "Enter the Hell-fire with those who deserved it." | ||||

70 | [92:11] Line:6069 |
