٢٠٣will be gathered
And remember Allāh during [specific] numbered days. Then whoever hastens [his departure] in two days - there is no sin upon him; and whoever delays [until the third] - there is no sin upon him - for him who fears Allāh. And fear Allāh and know that unto Him you will be gathered.
2:204
وَمِنَ
And of
the people
مَن
(is the one) who
pleases you
قَوۡلُهُۥ
(with) his speech
فِى
in
the life
(of) the world

and he calls to witness
Allah

on
مَا
what
فِى
(is) in
قَلۡبِهِۦ
his heart
وَهُوَ
and he
أَلَدُّ
(is) the most quarrelsome
(of) opponents
And of the people is he whose speech pleases you in worldly life, and he calls Allāh to witness as to what is in his heart, yet he is the fiercest of opponents.
2:205
وَإِذَا
And when
تَوَلَّىٰ
he turns away
سَعَىٰ
he strives
فِى
in

لِيُفۡسِدَ
to spread corruption
فِيهَا
[in it]
وَيُهۡلِكَ
and destroys
the crops
وَٱ ل نّ َسۡلَۗ
and progeny
وَٱ للَّهُ
And Allah
لَا
(does) not
يُحِبُّ
love
[the] corruption
And when he goes away, he strives throughout the land to cause corruption therein and destroy crops and animals. And Allāh does not like corruption.
2:206
وَإِذَا
And when
قِيلَ
it is said
لَهُ
to him
Fear
Allah
أَخَذَتۡهُ
takes him
(his) pride
بِٱ لۡإِثۡمِۚ
to [the] sins
فَحَسۡبُهُۥ
Then enough for him
جَهَنّ َمُۚ
(is) Hell
وَلَبِئۡسَ
[and] surely an evil
[the] resting-place
And when it is said to him, "Fear Allāh," pride in the sin takes hold of him. Sufficient for him is Hellfire, and how wretched is the resting place.
2:207
وَمِنَ
And of
the people
مَن
(is the one) who
sells
نَفۡسَهُ
his own self
seeking
مَرۡضَاتِ
pleasure
(of) Allah
وَٱ للَّهُ
And Allah
رَءُوفُۢ
(is) full of Kindness
to His servants
And of the people is he who sells himself, seeking means to the approval of Allāh. And Allāh is Kind to [His] servants.

٢٠٩All-Wise
But if you slip [i.e., deviate] after clear proofs have come to you, then know that Allāh is Exalted in Might and Wise.
2:210
هَلۡ

And to
Allah

Do they await but that Allāh should come to them in covers of clouds and the angels [as well] and the matter is [then] decided? And to Allāh [all] matters are returned.

Ask the Children of Israel how many a sign of evidence We have given them. And whoever exchanges the favor of Allāh [for disbelief] after it has come to him - then indeed, Allāh is severe in penalty.

٢١٢measure
Beautified for those who disbelieve is the life of this world, and they ridicule those who believe. But those who fear Allāh are above them on the Day of Resurrection. And Allāh gives provision to whom He wills without account.
2:213
كَانَ
Was
mankind

Allah
[the] Prophets
مُبَشِّرِينَ

وَأَنز َلَ
and sent down

And (did) not

after
مَا
[what]
جَا ٓءَتۡهُمُ
came to them
the clear proofs
بَغۡيَۢا
(out of) jealousy
among themselves

And guided
Allah
those who

regarding what
they differed
فِيهِ

of
the Truth

with His permission
وَٱ للَّهُ
And Allah
يَهۡدِى
guides
مَن
whom
He wills
إِلَىٰ
to
صِرٰ طٍ
a path
straight
Mankind was [of] one religion [before their deviation]; then Allāh sent the prophets as bringers of good tidings and warners and sent down with them the Scripture in truth to judge between the people concerning that in which they differed. And none differed over it [i.e., the Scripture] except those who were given it - after the clear proofs came to them - out of jealous animosity among themselves. And Allāh guided those who believed to the truth concerning that over which they had differed, by His permission. And Allāh guides whom He wills to a straight path.
2:214
أَمۡ
Or

Unquestionably

[Indeed]

help

٢١٤(is) near
Or do you think that you will enter Paradise while such [trial] has not yet come to you as came to those who passed on before you? They were touched by poverty and hardship and were shaken until [even their] messenger and those who believed with him said, "When is the help of Allāh?" Unquestionably, the help of Allāh is near.
2:215

They ask you, [O Muḥammad], what they should spend. Say, "Whatever you spend of good is [to be] for parents and relatives and orphans and the needy and the traveler. And whatever you do of good - indeed, Allāh is Knowing of it."
2:216

Battle has been enjoined upon you while it is hateful to you. But perhaps you hate a thing and it is good for you; and perhaps you love a thing and it is bad for you. And Allāh knows, while you know not.
2:217

قِتَالٍ
(concerning) fighting

than
[the] killing
وَلَا

they will cease
يُقَـٰ تِلُونَكُمۡ

حَتَّىٰ
until

And whoever

they

٢١٧(will) abide forever
They ask you about the sacred month1 - about fighting therein. Say, "Fighting therein is great [sin], but averting [people] from the way of Allāh and disbelief in Him and [preventing access to] al-Masjid al-Ḥarām and the expulsion of its people therefrom are greater [evil] in the sight of Allāh. And fitnah2 is greater than killing." And they will continue to fight you until they turn you back from your religion if they are able. And whoever of you reverts from his religion [to disbelief] and dies while he is a disbeliever - for those, their deeds have become worthless in this world and the Hereafter, and those are the companions of the Fire; they will abide therein eternally.

And they ask you

٢١٩ponder
They ask you about wine1 and gambling. Say, "In them is great sin and [yet, some] benefit for people. But their sin is greater than their benefit." And they ask you what they should spend. Say, "The excess [beyond needs]." Thus Allāh makes clear to you the verses [of revelation] that you might give thought

To this world and the Hereafter. And they ask you about orphans. Say, "Improvement for them is best. And if you mix your affairs with theirs - they are your brothers. And Allāh knows the corrupter from the amender. And if Allāh had willed, He could have put you in difficulty. Indeed, Allāh is Exalted in Might and Wise."

And do not marry polytheistic women until they believe.1 And a believing slave woman is better than a polytheist, even though she might please you. And do not marry polytheistic men [to your women] until they believe. And a believing slave is better than a polytheist, even though he might please you. Those invite [you] to the Fire, but Allāh invites to Paradise and to forgiveness, by His permission. And He makes clear His verses [i.e., ordinances] to the people that perhaps they may remember.

Divorced women remain in waiting [i.e., do not remarry] for three periods,1 and it is not lawful for them to conceal what Allāh has created in their wombs if they believe in Allāh and the Last Day. And their husbands have more right to take them back in this [period] if they want reconciliation.2 And due to them [i.e., the wives] is similar to what is expected of them, according to what is reasonable.3 But the men [i.e., husbands] have a degree over them [in responsibility and authority].

٢٤٠All-Wise
And those who are taken in death among you and leave wives behind - for their wives is a bequest: maintenance for one year without turning [them] out. But if they leave [of their own accord], then there is no blame upon you for what they do with themselves in an acceptable way.1 And Allāh is Exalted in Might and Wise.
