And when

it is said

to them

Follow

what

has revealed

Allah

they said

Nay

we follow

what

we found

[on it]

our forefathers (following)

Even though

[were]

their forefathers

(did) not

understand

anything

and not

were they guided

And (the) example

(of) those who

disbelieve[d]

(is) like (the) example

(of) the one who

shouts

at what

not

(does) hear

except

calls

and cries

deaf

dumb

(and) blind

[so] they

(do) not

understand

O you

who

believe[d]

Eat

from

(the) good

(of) what

We have provided you

and be grateful

to Allah

if

you

alone

worship Him

Only

He has forbidden

to you

the dead animals

and [the] blood

and flesh

(of) swine

and what

has been dedicated

[with it]

to other than

Allah

So whoever

(is) forced by necessity

without

(being) disobedient

and not

transgressor

then no

sin

on him

Indeed

Allah

(is) Oft-Forgiving

Most Merciful

Indeed

those who

conceal

what

(has) revealed

Allah (has)

of

the Book

and they purchase

there with

a gain

little

Those

not

they eat

in

their bellies

except

the Fire

And not

will speak to them

Allah

(on the) Day

(of) [the] Judgment

and not

will He purify them

and for them

(is) a punishment

painful

Those

(are) they who

purchase[d]

[the] astraying

for [the] Guidance

and [the] punishment

for [the] forgiveness

So what (is)

their endurance

on

the Fire

That

(is) because

Allah

revealed

the Book

with [the] Truth

And indeed

those

who differed

in

the Book

(are) surely in

schism

far
