ٱللَّهُ
Allah

God

except
هُوَ
Him

the Ever-Living
ٱلۡقَيُّومُ
the Sustainer of all that exists
٢
Allāh - there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Self-Sustaining.1
3:3
نَزَّلَ
He revealed
عَلَيۡكَ
to you
ٱلۡكِتَـٰبَ
the Book
بِٱلۡحَقِّ
in [the] truth
مُصَدِّقًا
confirming
لِّمَا
that which
بَيۡنَ
(was)
يَدَيۡهِ
before it
وَأَنزَلَ
and He revealed
ٱلتَّوۡرَٮٰةَ
the Taurat
وَٱلۡإِنجِيلَ
and the Injeel
٣
He has sent down upon you, [O Muḥammad], the Book in truth, confirming what was before it. And He revealed the Torah and the Gospel
3:4
مِن
From
قَبۡلُ
before (this)
هُدًى
(as) guidance
لِّلنَّاسِ
for the mankind
وَأَنزَلَ
And (He) revealed
ٱلۡفُرۡقَانَ‌ۗ
the Criterion
إِنَّ
Verily
ٱلَّذِينَ

severe
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
عَزِيزٌ
(is) All-Mighty
ذُو
All-Able
ٱنتِقَامٍ
(of) retribution
٤
Before, as guidance for the people. And He revealed the Criterion [i.e., the Qur’ān]. Indeed, those who disbelieve in the verses of Allāh will have a severe punishment, and Allāh is Exalted in Might, the Owner of Retribution.1
3:5
إِنَّ
Indeed
ٱللَّهَ
Allah
لَا
not
يَخۡفَىٰ
is hidden
عَلَيۡهِ
from Him
شَىۡءٌ
anything
فِى
in
ٱلۡأَرۡضِ
the earth
وَلَا
and not
فِى
in
ٱلسَّمَآءِ
the heaven
٥
Indeed, from Allāh nothing is hidden in the earth nor in the heaven.
3:6
هُوَ
He
ٱلَّذِى
(is) the One Who
يُصَوِّرُكُمۡ
shapes you
فِى
in
ٱلۡأَرۡحَامِ
the wombs
كَيۡفَ
how(ever)
يَشَآءُ‌ۚ
He wills
لَآ
(There is) no
إِلَـٰهَ
god
إِلَّا
except
هُوَ
Him
ٱلۡعَزِيزُ
the All-Mighty
ٱلۡحَكِيمُ
the All-Wise
٦
It is He who forms you in the wombs however He wills. There is no deity except Him, the Exalted in Might, the Wise.
3:7
هُوَ
He
ٱلَّذِىٓ
(is) the One Who
أَنزَلَ
revealed
عَلَيۡكَ
to you
ٱلۡكِتَـٰبَ
the Book
مِنۡهُ
of it
ءَايَـٰتٌ
(are) Verses
مُّحۡكَمَـٰتٌ
absolutely clear
هُنَّ
they (are)
أُمُّ
the foundation
ٱلۡكِتَـٰبِ
(of) the Book
وَأُخَرُ
and others
مُتَشَـٰبِهَـٰتٌ‌ۖ
(are) allegorical
فَأَمَّا
Then as for
ٱلَّذِينَ
those
فِى
in
قُلُوبِهِمۡ
their hearts
زَيۡغٌ
(is) perversity
فَيَتَّبِعُونَ
[so] they follow
مَا
what
تَشَـٰبَهَ
(is) allegorical
مِنۡهُ
of it
ٱبۡتِغَآءَ
seeking
ٱلۡفِتۡنَةِ
[the] discord
وَٱبۡتِغَآءَ
and seeking
تَأۡوِيلِهِۦ‌ۗ
its interpretation
وَمَا
And not
يَعۡلَمُ
knows
تَأۡوِيلَهُۥٓ
its interpretation
إِلَّا
except
ٱللَّهُ‌ۗ
Allah
وَٱلرّٰسِخُونَ
And those firm
فِى
in
ٱلۡعِلۡمِ
[the] knowledge
يَقُولُونَ
they say
ءَامَنَّا
We believe
بِهِۦ
in it
كُلٌّ
All
مِّنۡ
(is)
عِندِ
from
رَبِّنَا‌ۗ
our Lord
وَمَا
And not
يَذَّكَّرُ
will take heed
إِلَّآ
except
أُوۡلُواۡ
men
ٱلۡأَلۡبَـٰبِ
(of) understanding
٧
It is He who has sent down to you, [O Muḥammad], the Book; in it are verses [that are] precise - they are the foundation of the Book - and others unspecific.1 As for those in whose hearts is deviation [from truth], they will follow that of it which is unspecific, seeking discord and seeking an interpretation [suitable to them]. And no one knows its [true] interpretation except Allāh. But those firm in knowledge say, "We believe in it. All [of it] is from our Lord." And no one will be reminded except those of understanding.
3:8
رَبَّنَا
Our Lord
لَا
(Do) not
تُزِغۡ
deviate
قُلُوبَنَا
our hearts
بَعۡدَ
after
إِذۡ
[when]
هَدَيۡتَنَا
You (have) guided us
وَهَبۡ
and grant
لَنَا
(for) us
مِن
from
لَّدُنكَ
Yourself
رَحۡمَةً‌ۚ
mercy
إِنَّكَ
Indeed You
أَنتَ
You
ٱلۡوَهَّابُ
(are) the Bestower
٨
[Who say], "Our Lord, let not our hearts deviate after You have guided us and grant us from Yourself mercy. Indeed, You are the Bestower.1
3:9
رَبَّنَآ
Our Lord
إِنَّكَ
Indeed, You
جَامِعُ
will gather
ٱلنَّاسِ
[the] mankind
لِيَوۡمٍ
on a Day
لَّا
(there is) no
رَيۡبَ
doubt
فِيهِ‌ۚ
in it
إِنَّ
Indeed
ٱللَّهَ
Allah
لَا
(does) not
يُخۡلِفُ
break
ٱلۡمِيعَادَ
the Promise
٩
Our Lord, surely You will gather the people for a Day about which there is no doubt. Indeed, Allāh does not fail in His promise."
3:10
إِنَّ
Indeed
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who
كَفَرُواۡ
disbelieve[d]
لَن
never
تُغۡنِىَ
will avail
عَنۡهُمۡ
[for] them
أَمۡوٰلُهُمۡ
their wealth
وَلَآ
and not
أَوۡلَـٰدُهُم
their children
مِّنَ
against
ٱللَّهِ
Allah
شَيۡــًٔا‌ۖ
anything
وَأُوۡلَـٰٓئِكَ
and those
هُمۡ
they (are)
وَقُودُ
(the) fuel
ٱلنَّارِ
(for) the Fire
١٠
Indeed, those who disbelieve - never will their wealth or their children avail them against Allāh at all. And it is they who are fuel for the Fire.
3:11
كَدَأۡبِ
Like behavior
ءَالِ
(of the) people
فِرۡعَوۡنَ
(of) Firaun
وَٱلَّذِينَ
and those who
مِن
(were) from
قَبۡلِهِمۡ‌ۚ
before them
كَذَّبُواۡ
They denied
بِـَٔـايَـٰتِنَا
Our Signs
فَأَخَذَهُمُ
so seized them
ٱللَّهُ
Allah
بِذُنُوبِهِمۡ‌ۗ
for their sins
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
شَدِيدُ
(is) severe
ٱلۡعِقَابِ
(in) [the] punishment
١١
[Theirs is] like the custom of the people of Pharaoh and those before them. They denied Our signs, so Allāh seized them for their sins. And Allāh is severe in penalty.
3:12
قُل
Say
لِّلَّذِينَ
to those who
كَفَرُواۡ
disbelieve[d]
سَتُغۡلَبُونَ
You will be overcome
وَتُحۡشَرُونَ
and you will be gathered
إِلَىٰ
to
جَهَنَّمَ‌ۚ
Hell
وَبِئۡسَ
[and] an evil
ٱلۡمِهَادُ
[the] resting place
١٢
Say to those who disbelieve, "You will be overcome and gathered together to Hell, and wretched is the resting place."
3:13
قَدۡ
Surely
كَانَ
it was
لَكُمۡ
for you
ءَايَةٌ
a sign
فِى
in
فِئَتَيۡنِ
(the) two hosts
ٱلۡتَقَتَا‌ۖ
which met
فِئَةٌ
one group
تُقَـٰتِلُ
fighting
فِى
in
سَبِيلِ
(the) way
ٱللَّهِ
(of) Allah
وَأُخۡرَىٰ
and another
كَافِرَةٌ
disbelievers
يَرَوۡنَهُم
They were seeing them
مِّثۡلَيۡهِمۡ
twice of them
رَأۡىَ
with the sight
ٱلۡعَيۡنِ‌ۚ
(of) their eyes
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
يُؤَيِّدُ
supports
بِنَصۡرِهِۦ
with His help
مَن
whom
يَشَآءُ‌ۗ
He wills
إِنَّ
Indeed
فِى
in
ذٰلِكَ
that
لَعِبۡرَةً
surely (is) a lesson
لِّأُوۡلِى
for the owners
ٱلۡأَبۡصَـٰرِ
(of) vision
١٣
Already there has been for you a sign in the two armies which met [in combat at Badr] - one fighting in the cause of Allāh and another of disbelievers. They saw them [to be] twice their [own] number by [their] eyesight.1 But Allāh supports with His victory whom He wills. Indeed in that is a lesson for those of vision.
3:14
زُيِّنَ
Beautified
لِلنَّاسِ
for mankind
حُبُّ
(is) love
ٱلشَّهَوٰتِ
(of) the (things they) desire
مِنَ
of
ٱلنِّسَآءِ
[the] women
وَٱلۡبَنِينَ
and [the] sons
وَٱلۡقَنَـٰطِيرِ
and [the] heaps
ٱلۡمُقَنطَرَةِ
[the] stored up
مِنَ
of
ٱلذَّهَبِ
[the] gold
وَٱلۡفِضَّةِ
and [the] silver
وَٱلۡخَيۡلِ
and [the] horses
ٱلۡمُسَوَّمَةِ
[the] branded
وَٱلۡأَنۡعَـٰمِ
and [the] cattle
وَٱلۡحَرۡثِ‌ۗ
and [the] tilled land
ذٰلِكَ
That
مَتَـٰعُ
(is) provision
ٱلۡحَيَوٰةِ
(of) life
ٱلدُّنۡيَا‌ۖ
(of) the world
وَٱللَّهُ
but Allah
عِندَهُۥ
with Him
حُسۡنُ
(is an) excellent
ٱلۡمَـَٔـابِ
[the] abode to return
١٤
Beautified for people is the love of that which they desire - of women and sons, heaped-up sums of gold and silver, fine branded horses, and cattle and tilled land. That is the enjoyment of worldly life, but Allāh has with Him the best return [i.e., Paradise].
3:15
۞قُلۡ

أَؤُنَبِّئُكُم
Shall I inform you
بِخَيۡرٍ
of better

For those who
ٱتَّقَوۡاۡ
fear[ed]

ٱللَّهِ‌ۗ
Allah
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
بَصِيرُۢ
(is) All-Seer
بِٱلۡعِبَادِ
of (His) slaves
١٥
Say, "Shall I inform you of [something] better than that? For those who fear Allāh will be gardens in the presence of their Lord beneath which rivers flow, wherein they abide eternally, and purified spouses and approval from Allāh. And Allāh is Seeing [i.e., aware] of [His] servants -
3:16
ٱلَّذِينَ
Those who
يَقُولُونَ
say
رَبَّنَآ
Our Lord
إِنَّنَآ
Indeed, we
ءَامَنَّا
(have) believed
فَٱغۡفِرۡ
so forgive
لَنَا
for us
ذُنُوبَنَا
our sins
وَقِنَا
and save us
عَذَابَ
(from) punishment
ٱلنَّارِ
(of) the Fire
١٦
Those who say, "Our Lord, indeed we have believed, so forgive us our sins and protect us from the punishment of the Fire,"
3:17
ٱلصَّـٰبِرِينَ
The patient
وَٱلصَّـٰدِقِينَ
and the truthful
وَٱلۡقَـٰنِتِينَ
and the obedient
وَٱلۡمُنفِقِينَ
and those who spend
وَٱلۡمُسۡتَغۡفِرِينَ
and those who seek forgiveness
بِٱلۡأَسۡحَارِ
[in the] before dawn
١٧
The patient, the true, the obedient, those who spend [in the way of Allāh], and those who seek forgiveness before dawn.
3:18
شَهِدَ
Bears witness
ٱللَّهُ
Allah
أَنَّهُۥ
that [He]
لَآ
(there is) no
إِلَـٰهَ
god
إِلَّا
except
هُوَ
Him
وَٱلۡمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ
and (so do) the Angels
وَأُوۡلُواۡ
and owners
ٱلۡعِلۡمِ
(of) [the] knowledge
قَآئِمَۢا
standing
بِٱلۡقِسۡطِ‌ۚ
in justice
لَآ
(There is) no
إِلَـٰهَ
god
إِلَّا
except
هُوَ
Him
ٱلۡعَزِيزُ
the All-Mighty
ٱلۡحَكِيمُ
the All-Wise
١٨
Allāh witnesses that there is no deity except Him, and [so do] the angels and those of knowledge - [that He is] maintaining [creation] in justice. There is no deity except Him, the Exalted in Might, the Wise.
3:19
إِنَّ
Indeed
ٱلدِّينَ
the religion
عِندَ
near
ٱللَّهِ
Allah
ٱلۡإِسۡلَـٰمُ‌ۗ
(is) Islam
وَمَا
And not
ٱخۡتَلَفَ
differed
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who
أُوتُواۡ
were given
ٱلۡكِتَـٰبَ
the Book
إِلَّا
except
مِنۢ
from
بَعۡدِ
after
مَا
[what]
جَآءَهُمُ
came to them
ٱلۡعِلۡمُ
[the] knowledge
بَغۡيَۢا
out of envy
بَيۡنَهُمۡ‌ۗ
among them
وَمَن
And whoever
يَكۡفُرۡ
disbelieves
بِـَٔـايَـٰتِ
in (the) Verses
ٱللَّهِ
(of) Allah
فَإِنَّ
then indeed
ٱللَّهَ
Allah
سَرِيعُ
(is) swift
ٱلۡحِسَابِ
(in taking) account
١٩
Indeed, the religion in the sight of Allāh is Islām. And those who were given the Scripture did not differ except after knowledge had come to them - out of jealous animosity between themselves. And whoever disbelieves in the verses of Allāh, then indeed, Allāh is swift in [taking] account.
3:20
فَإِنۡ
Then if
حَآجُّوكَ
they argue with you
فَقُلۡ
then say
أَسۡلَمۡتُ
I have submitted
وَجۡهِىَ
myself
لِلَّهِ
to Allah
وَمَنِ
and (those) who
ٱتَّبَعَنِ‌ۗ
follow me
وَقُل
And say
لِّلَّذِينَ
to those who
أُوتُواۡ
were given
ٱلۡكِتَـٰبَ
the Book
وَٱلۡأُمِّيِّــۧنَ
and the unlettered people
ءَأَسۡلَمۡتُمۡ‌ۚ
Have you submitted yourselves
فَإِنۡ
Then if
أَسۡلَمُواۡ
they submit
فَقَدِ
then surely
ٱهۡتَدَواۡ‌ۖ
they are guided
وَّإِن
But if
تَوَلَّوۡاۡ
they turn back
فَإِنَّمَا
then only
عَلَيۡكَ
on you
ٱلۡبَلَـٰغُ‌ۗ
(is) to [the] convey
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
بَصِيرُۢ
(is) All-Seer
بِٱلۡعِبَادِ
of [His] slaves
٢٠
So if they argue with you, say, "I have submitted myself to Allāh [in Islām], and [so have] those who follow me." And say to those who were given the Scripture and [to] the unlearned,1 "Have you submitted yourselves?" And if they submit [in Islām], they are rightly guided; but if they turn away - then upon you is only the [duty of] notification. And Allāh is Seeing of [His] servants.
3:21
إِنَّ
Indeed
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who
يَكۡفُرُونَ
disbelieve
بِـَٔـايَـٰتِ
in (the) Signs (of)
ٱللَّهِ
Allah
وَيَقۡتُلُونَ
and they kill
ٱلنَّبِيِّــۧنَ
the Prophets
بِغَيۡرِ
without
حَقٍّ
right
وَيَقۡتُلُونَ
and they kill
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who
يَأۡمُرُونَ
order
بِٱلۡقِسۡطِ
[with] justice
مِنَ
among
ٱلنَّاسِ
the people
فَبَشِّرۡهُم
then give them tidings
بِعَذَابٍ
of a punishment
أَلِيمٍ
painful
٢١
Those who disbelieve in the signs of Allāh and kill the prophets without right and kill those who order justice from among the people - give them tidings of a painful punishment.
3:22
أُوۡلَـٰٓئِكَ
Those
ٱلَّذِينَ
(are) the ones who
حَبِطَتۡ
became worthless
أَعۡمَـٰلُهُمۡ
their deeds
فِى
in
ٱلدُّنۡيَا
the world
وَٱلۡأَخِرَةِ
and (in) the Hereafter
وَمَا
And not
لَهُم
(will be) for them
مِّن
any
نَّـٰصِرِينَ
helpers
٢٢
They are the ones whose deeds have become worthless in this world and the Hereafter, and for them there will be no helpers.
3:23
أَلَمۡ
Have not
تَرَ
you seen
إِلَى
[to]
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who
أُوتُواۡ
were given
نَصِيبًا
a portion
مِّنَ
of
ٱلۡكِتَـٰبِ
the Scripture
يُدۡعَوۡنَ
They are invited
إِلَىٰ
to
كِتَـٰبِ
(the) Book
ٱللَّهِ
(of) Allah
لِيَحۡكُمَ
that (it should) arbitrate
بَيۡنَهُمۡ
between them
ثُمَّ
then
يَتَوَلَّىٰ
turns away
فَرِيقٌ
a party
مِّنۡهُمۡ
of them
وَهُم
and they (are)
مُّعۡرِضُونَ
those who are averse
٢٣
Do you not consider, [O Muḥammad], those who were given a portion of the Scripture? They are invited to the Scripture of Allāh that it should arbitrate between them;1 then a party of them turns away, and they are refusing.
3:24
ذٰلِكَ
That
بِأَنَّهُمۡ
(is) because they
قَالُواۡ
say
لَن
Never
تَمَسَّنَا
will touch us
ٱلنَّارُ
the Fire
إِلَّآ
except
أَيَّامًا
(for) days
مَّعۡدُودٰتٍ‌ۖ
numbered
وَغَرَّهُمۡ
And deceived them
فِى
in
دِينِهِم
their religion
مَّا
what
كَانُواۡ
they were
يَفۡتَرُونَ
inventing
٢٤
That is because they say, "Never will the Fire touch us except for [a few] numbered days," and [because] they were deluded in their religion by what they were inventing.
3:25
فَكَيۡفَ
Then how (will it be)
إِذَا
when
جَمَعۡنَـٰهُمۡ
We will gather them
لِيَوۡمٍ
on a Day
لَّا
no
رَيۡبَ
doubt
فِيهِ
in it
وَوُفِّيَتۡ
And will be paid in full
كُلُّ
every
نَفۡسٍ
soul
مَّا
what
كَسَبَتۡ
it earned
وَهُمۡ
and they
لَا
(will) not
يُظۡلَمُونَ
be wronged
٢٥
So how will it be when We assemble them for a Day about which there is no doubt? And each soul will be compensated [in full for] what it earned, and they will not be wronged.
3:26

ٱلۡمُلۡكَ
the dominion

إِنَّكَ
Indeed, You
عَلَىٰ
(are) on
كُلِّ
every
شَىۡءٍ
thing
قَدِيرٌ
All-Powerful
٢٦
Say, "O Allāh, Owner of Sovereignty, You give sovereignty to whom You will and You take sovereignty away from whom You will. You honor whom You will and You humble whom You will. In Your hand1 is [all] good. Indeed, You are over all things competent.
3:27
تُولِجُ
You cause to enter
ٱلَّيۡلَ
the night
فِى
in
ٱلنَّهَارِ
the day

the living
مِنَ

ٱلۡمَيِّتِ
the dead
وَتُخۡرِجُ
and You bring forth
ٱلۡمَيِّتَ
the dead
مِنَ
from
ٱلۡحَىِّ‌ۖ
the living
وَتَرۡزُقُ
and You give provision
مَن
(to) whom
تَشَآءُ
You will
بِغَيۡرِ
without
حِسَابٍ
measure
٢٧
You cause the night to enter the day, and You cause the day to enter the night; and You bring the living out of the dead, and You bring the dead out of the living. And You give provision to whom You will without account [i.e., limit or measure]."
3:28

Let not believers take disbelievers as allies [i.e., supporters or protectors] rather than believers. And whoever [of you] does that has nothing [i.e., no association] with Allāh, except when taking precaution against them in prudence.1 And Allāh warns you of Himself, and to Allāh is the [final] destination.

Indeed, Allāh chose Adam and Noah and the family of Abraham and the family of ʿImrān over the worlds -

Descendants, some of them from others. And Allāh is Hearing and Knowing.
3:35
إِذۡ
When
قَالَتِ
[she] said
ٱمۡرَأَتُ
(the) wife
عِمۡرٰنَ
(of) Imran
رَبِّ
My Lord
إِنِّى
Indeed, I
نَذَرۡتُ
[I] vowed
لَكَ
to You
مَا
what

بَطۡنِى
my womb
مُحَرَّرًا
dedicated
فَتَقَبَّلۡ
so accept
مِنِّىٓ‌ۖ
from me
إِنَّكَ
Indeed, You
أَنتَ
You
ٱلسَّمِيعُ
(are) the All-Hearing
ٱلۡعَلِيمُ
the All-Knowing
٣٥
[Mention, O Muḥammad], when the wife of ʿImrān said, "My Lord, indeed I have pledged to You what is in my womb, consecrated [for Your service], so accept this from me. Indeed, You are the Hearing, the Knowing."
3:36
فَلَمَّا
Then when
وَضَعَتۡهَا
she delivered her
قَالَتۡ
she said
رَبِّ
My Lord
إِنِّى
indeed I
وَضَعۡتُهَآ
[I] (have) delivered [her]
أُنثَىٰ
a female
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
أَعۡلَمُ
knows better
بِمَا
[of] what
وَضَعَتۡ
she delivered
وَلَيۡسَ
and is not
ٱلذَّكَرُ
the male
كَٱلۡأُنثَىٰ‌ۖ
like the female
وَإِنِّى
And that I
سَمَّيۡتُهَا
[I] (have) named her
مَرۡيَمَ
Maryam
وَإِنِّىٓ
and that I
أُعِيذُهَا
[I] seek refuge for her
بِكَ
in You
وَذُرِّيَّتَهَا
and her offspring
مِنَ
from
ٱلشَّيۡطَـٰنِ
the Shaitaan
ٱلرَّجِيمِ
the rejected
٣٦
But when she delivered her, she said, "My Lord, I have delivered a female." And Allāh was most knowing of what she delivered, and the male is not like the female. "And I have named her Mary, and I seek refuge for her in You and [for] her descendants from Satan, the expelled [from the mercy of Allāh]."
3:37
فَتَقَبَّلَهَا
So accepted her
رَبُّهَا
her Lord
بِقَبُولٍ
with acceptance
حَسَنٍ
good
وَأَنۢبَتَهَا
and reared her
نَبَاتًا
a rearing
حَسَنًا
good
وَكَفَّلَهَا
and put her in (the) care
زَكَرِيَّا‌ۖ
(of) Zakariya
كُلَّمَا
Whenever
دَخَلَ
entered
عَلَيۡهَا
upon her
زَكَرِيَّا
Zakariya
ٱلۡمِحۡرَابَ
[the] prayer chamber
وَجَدَ
he found
عِندَهَا
with her
رِزۡقًا‌ۖ
provision
قَالَ
He said
يَـٰمَرۡيَمُ
O Maryam
أَنَّىٰ
From where
لَكِ
for you
هَـٰذَا‌ۖ
(is) this
قَالَتۡ
She said
هُوَ
This
مِنۡ
(is)
عِندِ
from
ٱللَّهِ‌ۖ
Allah
إِنَّ
Indeed
ٱللَّهَ
Allah
يَرۡزُقُ
gives provision
مَن
(to) whom
يَشَآءُ
He wills
بِغَيۡرِ
without
حِسَابٍ
measure
٣٧
So her Lord accepted her with good acceptance and caused her to grow in a good manner and put her in the care of Zechariah. Every time Zechariah entered upon her in the prayer chamber, he found with her provision. He said, "O Mary, from where is this [coming] to you?" She said, "It is from Allāh. Indeed, Allāh provides for whom He wills without account."
3:38
هُنَالِكَ
There only
دَعَا
invoked
زَكَرِيَّا
Zakariya
رَبَّهُۥ‌ۖ
his Lord
قَالَ
he said

My Lord
هَبۡ
grant

[for] me
مِن
from
لَّدُنكَ
Yourself
ذُرِّيَّةً
offspring
طَيِّبَةً‌ۖ
pure
إِنَّكَ
Indeed, You
سَمِيعُ
(are) All-Hearer
ٱلدُّعَآءِ
(of) the prayer
٣٨
At that, Zechariah called upon his Lord, saying, "My Lord, grant me from Yourself a good offspring. Indeed, You are the Hearer of supplication."
3:39
فَنَادَتۡهُ
Then called him
ٱلۡمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ
the Angels
وَهُوَ
when he
قَآئِمٌ
(was) standing
يُصَلِّى
praying
فِى
in
ٱلۡمِحۡرَابِ
the prayer chamber
أَنَّ
Indeed
ٱللَّهَ
Allah
يُبَشِّرُكَ
gives you glad tidings
بِيَحۡيَىٰ
of Yahya
مُصَدِّقَۢا
confirming
بِكَلِمَةٍ
[of] a Word
مِّنَ
from
ٱللَّهِ
Allah
وَسَيِّدًا
and a noble
وَحَصُورًا
and chaste
وَنَبِيًّا
and a Prophet
مِّنَ
among
ٱلصَّـٰلِحِينَ
the righteous
٣٩
So the angels called him while he was standing in prayer in the chamber, "Indeed, Allāh gives you good tidings of John, confirming a word1 from Allāh and [who will be] honorable, abstaining [from women], and a prophet from among the righteous."
3:40
قَالَ
He said
رَبِّ
My Lord

how

غُلَـٰمٌ

ٱلۡكِبَرُ
[the] old age
وَٱمۡرَأَتِى
and my wife
عَاقِرٌ‌ۖ

He said
كَذٰلِكَ
Thus
ٱللَّهُ
Allah
يَفۡعَلُ
does
مَا
what
يَشَآءُ
He wills
٤٠
He said, "My Lord, how will I have a boy when I have reached old age and my wife is barren?" He [the angel] said, "Such is Allāh; He does what He wills."
3:41
قَالَ
He said
رَبِّ
My Lord
ٱجۡعَل
make
لِّىٓ
for me
ءَايَةً‌ۖ
a sign
قَالَ
He said
ءَايَتُكَ
your sign
أَلَّا
(is) that not
تُكَلِّمَ
you will speak
ٱلنَّاسَ
(to) the people
ثَلَـٰثَةَ
(for) three
أَيَّامٍ
days
إِلَّا
except
رَمۡزًا‌ۗ
(with) gestures

And remember
رَّبَّكَ

كَثِيرًا
much
وَسَبِّحۡ
and glorify (Him)
بِٱلۡعَشِىِّ
in the evening
وَٱلۡإِبۡكَـٰرِ
and (in) the morning
٤١
He said, "My Lord, make for me a sign." He said, "Your sign is that you will not [be able to] speak to the people for three days except by gesture. And remember your Lord much and exalt [Him with praise] in the evening and the morning."
3:42
وَإِذۡ
And when
قَالَتِ
said
ٱلۡمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ
the Angels
يَـٰمَرۡيَمُ
O Maryam
إِنَّ
Indeed
ٱللَّهَ
Allah
ٱصۡطَفَـٰكِ
(has) chosen you
وَطَهَّرَكِ

وَٱصۡطَفَـٰكِ
and chosen you

ٱلۡعَـٰلَمِينَ
(of) the worlds
٤٢
And [mention] when the angels said, "O Mary, indeed Allāh has chosen you and purified you and chosen you above the women of the worlds.
3:43
يَـٰمَرۡيَمُ
O Maryam
ٱقۡنُتِى
Be obedient

وَٱسۡجُدِى

ٱلرّٰكِعِينَ
those who bow down
٤٣
O Mary, be devoutly obedient to your Lord and prostrate and bow with those who bow [in prayer]."
3:44
ذٰلِكَ
That
مِنۡ

أَنۢبَآءِ
(the) news

and not
كُنتَ
you were
لَدَيۡهِمۡ

إِذۡ
when
يَخۡتَصِمُونَ

٤٤
That is from the news of the unseen which We reveal to you, [O Muḥammad]. And you were not with them when they cast their pens1 as to which of them should be responsible for Mary. Nor were you with them when they disputed.
3:45
إِذۡ
When

[And mention] when the angels said, "O Mary, indeed Allāh gives you good tidings of a word1 from Him, whose name will be the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary - distinguished in this world and the Hereafter and among those brought near [to Allāh].
3:46

She said, "My Lord, how will I have a child when no man has touched me?" [The angel] said, "Such is Allāh; He creates what He wills. When He decrees a matter, He only says to it, 'Be,' and it is.
3:48

And [make him] a messenger to the Children of Israel, [who will say], 'Indeed I have come to you with a sign from your Lord in that I design for you from clay [that which is] like the form of a bird, then I breathe into it and it becomes a bird by permission of Allāh.

Then when

But when Jesus felt [persistence in] disbelief from them, he said, "Who are my supporters for [the cause of] Allāh?" The disciples said, "We are supporters for Allāh. We have believed in Allāh and testify that we are Muslims [submitting to Him].
3:53

But as for those who believed and did righteous deeds, He will give them in full their rewards, and Allāh does not like the wrongdoers.

Indeed, the example of Jesus to Allāh1 is like that of Adam. He created him from dust; then He said to him, "Be," and he was.

And among them is he who, if you entrust him with a [single] coin, he will not return it to you unless you are constantly standing over him [demanding it]. That is because they say, "There is no blame upon us concerning the unlearned."1 And they speak untruth about Allāh while they know [it].

Indeed, those who exchange the covenant of Allāh and their [own] oaths for a small price will have no share in the Hereafter, and Allāh will not speak to them or look at them on the Day of Resurrection, nor will He purify them; and they will have a painful punishment.

And indeed, there is among them a party who alter the Scripture with their tongues so you may think it is from the Scripture, but it is not from the Scripture. And they say, "This is from Allāh," but it is not from Allāh. And they speak untruth about Allāh while they know.

It is not for a human [prophet]1 that Allāh should give him the Scripture2 and authority and prophethood and then he would say to the people, "Be servants to me rather than Allāh," but [instead, he would say], "Be pious scholars of the Lord because of what you have taught of the Scripture and because of what you have studied."

And [recall, O People of the Scripture], when Allāh took the covenant of the prophets, [saying], "Whatever I give you of the Scripture and wisdom and then there comes to you a messenger confirming what is with you, you [must] believe in him and support him." [Allāh] said, "Have you acknowledged and taken upon that My commitment?"1 They said, "We have acknowledged it." He said, "Then bear witness, and I am with you among the witnesses."

ءَانَآءَ
(in the) hours
ٱلَّيۡلِ
(of) the night
وَهُمۡ
and they
يَسۡجُدُونَ
prostrate
١١٣
They are not [all] the same; among the People of the Scripture is a community1 standing [in obedience], reciting the verses of Allāh during periods of the night and prostrating [in prayer].
3:114
يُؤۡمِنُونَ
They believe
بِٱللَّهِ
in Allah
وَٱلۡيَوۡمِ
and the Day
ٱلۡأَخِرِ
the Last
وَيَأۡمُرُونَ
and they enjoin
بِٱلۡمَعۡرُوفِ
[with] the right
وَيَنۡهَوۡنَ
and forbid
عَنِ
[from]
ٱلۡمُنكَرِ
the wrong
وَيُسَـٰرِعُونَ
and they hasten
فِى
in
ٱلۡخَيۡرٰتِ
the good deeds
وَأُوۡلَـٰٓئِكَ
And those
مِنَ
(are) from
ٱلصَّـٰلِحِينَ
the righteous
١١٤
They believe in Allāh and the Last Day, and they enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong and hasten to good deeds. And those are among the righteous.
3:115
وَمَا
And whatever
يَفۡعَلُواۡ
they do
مِنۡ
of
خَيۡرٍ
a good
فَلَن
then never
يُكۡفَرُوهُ‌ۗ
will they be denied it
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
عَلِيمُۢ
(is) All-Knowing
بِٱلۡمُتَّقِينَ
of the God-fearing
١١٥
And whatever good they do - never will it be denied them. And Allāh is Knowing of the righteous.
3:116
إِنَّ
Indeed
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who
كَفَرُواۡ
disbelieved
لَن
never
تُغۡنِىَ
will avail
عَنۡهُمۡ
[for] them
أَمۡوٰلُهُمۡ
their wealth
وَلَآ
and not
أَوۡلَـٰدُهُم
their children
مِّنَ
against
ٱللَّهِ
Allah
شَيۡــًٔا‌ۖ
anything
وَأُوۡلَـٰٓئِكَ
and those
أَصۡحَـٰبُ
(are the) companions
ٱلنَّارِ‌ۚ
(of) the Fire
هُمۡ
they
فِيهَا
in it
خَـٰلِدُونَ
(will) abide forever
١١٦
Indeed, those who disbelieve - never will their wealth or their children avail them against Allāh at all, and those are the companions of the Fire; they will abide therein eternally.
3:117
مَثَلُ
Example
مَا
(of) what
يُنفِقُونَ
they spend
فِى
in
هَـٰذِهِ
this
ٱلۡحَيَوٰةِ
[the] life
ٱلدُّنۡيَا
(of) the world
كَمَثَلِ
(is) like (the) example
رِيحٍ
(of) a wind
فِيهَا
in it
صِرٌّ
(is) frost
أَصَابَتۡ
it struck
حَرۡثَ
(the) harvest
قَوۡمٍ
(of) a people
ظَلَمُوٓاۡ
who wronged
أَنفُسَهُمۡ
themselves
فَأَهۡلَكَتۡهُ‌ۚ
then destroyed it
وَمَا
And not
ظَلَمَهُمُ
(has) wronged them
ٱللَّهُ
Allah
وَلَـٰكِنۡ
[and] but
أَنفُسَهُمۡ
themselves
يَظۡلِمُونَ
they wronged
١١٧
The example of what they spend in this worldly life is like that of a wind containing frost which strikes the harvest of a people who have wronged themselves [i.e., sinned] and destroys it. And Allāh has not wronged them, but they wrong themselves.
3:118
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا
O you
ٱلَّذِينَ
who
ءَامَنُواۡ
believe[d]

(Do) not

take

They wish

what

distresses you
قَدۡ
Indeed
بَدَتِ
(has become) apparent
ٱلۡبَغۡضَآءُ
the hatred
مِنۡ
from
أَفۡوٰهِهِمۡ
their mouths
وَمَا
and what
تُخۡفِى
conceals
صُدُورُهُمۡ
their breasts
أَكۡبَرُ‌ۚ
(is) greater
قَدۡ
Certainly
بَيَّنَّا
We made clear
لَكُمُ
for you
ٱلۡأَيَـٰتِ‌ۖ
the Verses
إِن
if
كُنتُمۡ
you were
تَعۡقِلُونَ
(to use) reason
١١٨
O you who have believed, do not take as intimates those other than yourselves [i.e., believers], for they will not spare you [any] ruin. They wish you would have hardship. Hatred has already appeared from their mouths, and what their breasts conceal is greater. We have certainly made clear to you the signs, if you will use reason.
3:119
هَـٰٓأَنتُمۡ
Lo! You are
أُوۡلَآءِ
those
تُحِبُّونَهُمۡ
you love them
وَلَا
but not
يُحِبُّونَكُمۡ
they love you
وَتُؤۡمِنُونَ
and you believe
بِٱلۡكِتَـٰبِ
in the Book
كُلِّهِۦ
all of it
وَإِذَا
And when
لَقُوكُمۡ
they meet you
قَالُوٓاۡ
they say
ءَامَنَّا
We believe
وَإِذَا
And when
خَلَوۡاۡ
they are alone
عَضُّواۡ
they bite
عَلَيۡكُمُ
at you
ٱلۡأَنَامِلَ
the finger tips
مِنَ
(out) of
ٱلۡغَيۡظِ‌ۚ
[the] rage
قُلۡ
Say
مُوتُواۡ
Die
بِغَيۡظِكُمۡ‌ۗ
in your rage
إِنَّ
Indeed
ٱللَّهَ
Allah
عَلِيمُۢ
(is) All-Knowing
بِذَاتِ
of what
ٱلصُّدُورِ
(is in) the breasts
١١٩
Here you are loving them but they are not loving you, while you believe in the Scripture - all of it.1 And when they meet you, they say, "We believe." But when they are alone, they bite their fingertips at you in rage. Say, "Die in your rage. Indeed, Allāh is Knowing of that within the breasts."
3:120
إِن
If
تَمۡسَسۡكُمۡ
touches you
حَسَنَةٌ
a good
تَسُؤۡهُمۡ
it grieves them
وَإِن
and if
تُصِبۡكُمۡ
strikes you
سَيِّئَةٌ
misfortune
يَفۡرَحُواۡ
they rejoice
بِهَا‌ۖ
at it
وَإِن
And if
تَصۡبِرُواۡ
you are patient
وَتَتَّقُواۡ
and fear (Allah)
لَا
not
يَضُرُّكُمۡ
will harm you
كَيۡدُهُمۡ
their plot
شَيۡــًٔا‌ۗ
(in) anything
إِنَّ
Indeed
ٱللَّهَ
Allah
بِمَا
of what
يَعۡمَلُونَ
they do
مُحِيطٌ
(is) All-Encompassing
١٢٠
If good touches you, it distresses them; but if harm strikes you, they rejoice at it. And if you are patient and fear Allāh, their plot will not harm you at all. Indeed, Allāh is encompassing of what they do.
3:121
وَإِذۡ
And when
غَدَوۡتَ
you left early morning
مِنۡ
from
أَهۡلِكَ
your household
تُبَوِّئُ
to post
ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ
the believers
مَقَـٰعِدَ
(to take) positions
لِلۡقِتَالِ‌ۗ
for the battle
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
سَمِيعٌ
(is) All-Hearing
عَلِيمٌ
All-Knowing
١٢١
And [remember] when you, [O Muḥammad], left your family in the morning to post the believers at their stations for the battle [of Uḥud] - and Allāh is Hearing and Knowing -
3:122
إِذۡ
When
هَمَّت
inclined
طَّآئِفَتَانِ
two parties
مِنكُمۡ
among you
أَن
that
تَفۡشَلَا
they lost heart
وَٱللَّهُ
but Allah
وَلِيُّهُمَا‌ۗ
(was) their protector
وَعَلَى
And on
ٱللَّهِ
Allah
فَلۡيَتَوَكَّلِ
let put (their) trust
ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنُونَ
the believers
١٢٢
When two parties among you were about to lose courage, but Allāh was their ally; and upon Allāh the believers should rely.
3:123
وَلَقَدۡ
And certainly
نَصَرَكُمُ
helped you
ٱللَّهُ
Allah
بِبَدۡرٍ
in Badr
وَأَنتُمۡ
while you (were)
أَذِلَّةٌ‌ۖ
weak
فَٱتَّقُواۡ
So fear
ٱللَّهَ
Allah
لَعَلَّكُمۡ
so that you may
تَشۡكُرُونَ
(be) grateful
١٢٣
And already had Allāh given you victory at [the battle of] Badr while you were weak [i.e., few in number]. Then fear Allāh; perhaps you will be grateful.
3:124
إِذۡ
When
تَقُولُ
you said
لِلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ
to the believers
أَلَن
Is it not
يَكۡفِيَكُمۡ
enough for you
أَن
that
يُمِدَّكُمۡ
reinforces you
رَبُّكُم
your Lord
بِثَلَـٰثَةِ
with three
ءَالَـٰفٍ
thousand[s]
مِّنَ
[of]
ٱلۡمَلَـٰٓئِكَةِ
[the] Angels
مُنزَلِينَ
[the ones] sent down
١٢٤
[Remember] when you said to the believers, "Is it not sufficient for you that your Lord should reinforce you with three thousand angels sent down?
3:125
بَلَىٰٓ‌ۚ
Yes
إِن
if
تَصۡبِرُواۡ
you are patient
وَتَتَّقُواۡ
and fear (Allah)
وَيَأۡتُوكُم
and they come upon you
مِّن
[of]
فَوۡرِهِمۡ
suddenly
هَـٰذَا
[this]
يُمۡدِدۡكُمۡ
will reinforce you
رَبُّكُم
your Lord
بِخَمۡسَةِ
with five
ءَالَـٰفٍ
thousand[s]
مِّنَ
[of]
ٱلۡمَلَـٰٓئِكَةِ
[the] Angels
مُسَوِّمِينَ
[the ones] having marks
١٢٥
Yes, if you remain patient and conscious of Allāh and they [i.e., the enemy] come upon you [attacking] in rage, your Lord will reinforce you with five thousand angels having marks [of distinction]."
3:126
وَمَا
And not
جَعَلَهُ
made it
ٱللَّهُ
Allah
إِلَّا
except
بُشۡرَىٰ
(as) good news
لَكُمۡ
for you
وَلِتَطۡمَئِنَّ
and to reassure
قُلُوبُكُم
your hearts

And (there is) no
ٱلنَّصۡرُ
[the] victory

عِندِ
[near]
ٱللَّهِ
Allah
ٱلۡعَزِيزِ
the All-Mighty
ٱلۡحَكِيمِ
the All-Wise
١٢٦
And Allāh made it not except as [a sign of] good tidings for you and to reassure your hearts thereby. And victory is not except from Allāh, the Exalted in Might, the Wise -
3:127
لِيَقۡطَعَ
That He may cut off
طَرَفًا
a part
مِّنَ
of
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who
كَفَرُوٓاۡ
disbelieved
أَوۡ
or
يَكۡبِتَهُمۡ
suppress them
فَيَنقَلِبُواۡ
so (that) they turn back
خَآئِبِينَ
disappointed
١٢٧
That He might cut down a section of the disbelievers or suppress them so that they turn back disappointed.
3:128
لَيۡسَ
Not
لَكَ
for you
مِنَ
of
ٱلۡأَمۡرِ
the decision
شَىۡءٌ
(of) anything
أَوۡ
whether
يَتُوبَ
He turns
عَلَيۡهِمۡ
to them
أَوۡ
or
يُعَذِّبَهُمۡ
punishes them
فَإِنَّهُمۡ
for indeed, they
ظَـٰلِمُونَ
(are) wrongdoers
١٢٨
Not for you, [O Muḥammad, but for Allāh], is the decision whether He should [cut them down] or forgive them or punish them, for indeed, they are wrongdoers.
3:129
وَلِلَّهِ
And to Allah (belongs)
مَا
what
فِى
(is) in
ٱلسَّمَـٰوٰتِ
the heavens
وَمَا

ٱلۡأَرۡضِ‌ۚ

يَشَآءُ
He wills
وَيُعَذِّبُ

مَن
whom
يَشَآءُ‌ۚ
He wills
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
غَفُورٌ
(is) Oft-Forgiving
رَّحِيمٌ
Most Merciful
١٢٩
And to Allāh belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. He forgives whom He wills and punishes whom He wills. And Allāh is Forgiving and Merciful.

O you who have believed, do not consume usury, doubled and multiplied, but fear Allāh that you may be successful.
3:131
وَٱتَّقُواۡ
And fear
ٱلنَّارَ
the Fire
ٱلَّتِىٓ
which

And fear the Fire, which has been prepared for the disbelievers.

And hasten to forgiveness from your Lord and a garden [i.e., Paradise] as wide as the heavens and earth, prepared for the righteous

Who spend [in the cause of Allāh] during ease and hardship and who restrain anger and who pardon the people - and Allāh loves the doers of good;

on
مَا
what

١٣٥
And those who, when they commit an immorality or wrong themselves [by transgression], remember Allāh and seek forgiveness for their sins - and who can forgive sins except Allāh? - and [who] do not persist in what they have done while they know.
3:136
أُوۡلَـٰٓئِكَ
Those

Those - their reward is forgiveness from their Lord and gardens beneath which rivers flow [in Paradise], wherein they will abide eternally; and excellent is the reward of the [righteous] workers.
3:137

Similar situations [as yours] have passed on before you, so proceed throughout the earth and observe how was the end of those who denied.
3:138
هَـٰذَا
This
بَيَانٌ

This [Qur’ān] is a clear statement to [all] the people and a guidance and instruction for those conscious of Allāh.
3:139
وَلَا

So do not weaken and do not grieve, and you will be superior if you are [true] believers.

وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
لَا

the wrongdoers
١٤٠
If a wound should touch you - there has already touched the [opposing] people a wound similar to it. And these days [of varying conditions] We alternate among the people so that Allāh may make evident those who believe and [may] take to Himself from among you martyrs - and Allāh does not like the wrongdoers -
3:141
وَلِيُمَحِّصَ
And so that may purify
ٱللَّهُ
Allah
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who
ءَامَنُواۡ
believe
وَيَمۡحَقَ
and destroy
ٱلۡكَـٰفِرِينَ
the disbelievers
١٤١
And that Allāh may purify the believers [through trials] and destroy the disbelievers.
3:142
أَمۡ
Or
حَسِبۡتُمۡ
do you think
أَن
that
تَدۡخُلُواۡ
you will enter
ٱلۡجَنَّةَ
Paradise
وَلَمَّا
while has not yet

ٱللَّهُ
Allah
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who
جَـٰهَدُواۡ
strove hard
مِنكُمۡ
among you
وَيَعۡلَمَ
and made evident
ٱلصَّـٰبِرِينَ
the steadfast
١٤٢
Or do you think that you will enter Paradise while Allāh has not yet made evident those of you who fight in His cause and made evident those who are steadfast?
3:143
وَلَقَدۡ
And certainly
كُنتُمۡ
you used to
تَمَنَّوۡنَ

before
أَن
[that]
تَلۡقَوۡهُ

فَقَدۡ
then indeed
رَأَيۡتُمُوهُ
you have seen it
وَأَنتُمۡ
while you (were)
تَنظُرُونَ
looking on
١٤٣
And you had certainly wished for death [i.e., martyrdom] before you encountered it, and you have [now] seen it [before you] while you were looking on.
3:144
وَمَا
And not
مُحَمَّدٌ

(in) anything
وَسَيَجۡزِى
And will reward
ٱللَّهُ
Allah

the grateful ones
١٤٤
Muḥammad is not but a messenger. [Other] messengers have passed on before him. So if he was to die or be killed, would you turn back on your heels [to unbelief]? And he who turns back on his heels will never harm Allāh at all; but Allāh will reward the grateful.
3:145

نُؤۡتِهِۦ
We will give him

thereof
وَسَنَجۡزِى
And We will reward
ٱلشَّـٰكِرِينَ
the grateful ones
١٤٥
And it is not [possible] for one to die except by permission of Allāh at a decree determined. And whoever desires the reward of this world - We will give him thereof; and whoever desires the reward of the Hereafter - We will give him thereof. And We will reward the grateful.
3:146
وَكَأَيِّن
And how many
مِّن
from
نَّبِىٍّ
a Prophet
قَـٰتَلَ
fought
مَعَهُۥ
with him
رِبِّيُّونَ
(were) religious scholars
كَثِيرٌ
many
فَمَا
But not
وَهَنُواۡ
they lost heart
لِمَآ
for what
أَصَابَهُمۡ
befell them
فِى
in
سَبِيلِ
(the) way
ٱللَّهِ
(of) Allah
وَمَا
and not
ضَعُفُواۡ
they weakened
وَمَا
and not
ٱسۡتَكَانُواۡ‌ۗ
they gave in
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
يُحِبُّ
loves
ٱلصَّـٰبِرِينَ
the patient ones
١٤٦
And how many a prophet [fought in battle and] with him fought many religious scholars. But they never lost assurance due to what afflicted them in the cause of Allāh, nor did they weaken or submit. And Allāh loves the steadfast.
3:147
وَمَا
And not
كَانَ
were
قَوۡلَهُمۡ
their words
إِلَّآ
except
أَن
that
قَالُواۡ
they said
رَبَّنَا
Our Lord
ٱغۡفِرۡ
forgive
لَنَا
for us
ذُنُوبَنَا
our sins
وَإِسۡرَافَنَا
and our excesses
فِىٓ
in
أَمۡرِنَا
our affairs
وَثَبِّتۡ
and make firm
أَقۡدَامَنَا
our feet
وَٱنصُرۡنَا
and give us victory
عَلَى
over
ٱلۡقَوۡمِ
[the people]
ٱلۡكَـٰفِرِينَ
the disbelievers
١٤٧
And their words were not but that they said, "Our Lord, forgive us our sins and the excess [committed] in our affairs and plant firmly our feet and give us victory over the disbelieving people."
3:148
فَـَٔـاتَـٰهُمُ
So gave them
ٱللَّهُ
Allah
ثَوَابَ
reward
ٱلدُّنۡيَا
(in) the world
وَحُسۡنَ
and good
ثَوَابِ
reward
ٱلۡأَخِرَةِ‌ۗ
(in) the Hereafter
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
يُحِبُّ
loves
ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ
the good-doers
١٤٨
So Allāh gave them the reward of this world and the good reward of the Hereafter. And Allāh loves the doers of good.
3:149
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا
O you
ٱلَّذِينَ
who
ءَامَنُوٓاۡ
believe
إِن
If

you obey
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who

يَرُدُّوكُمۡ
they will turn you back
عَلَىٰٓ
on
أَعۡقَـٰبِكُمۡ
your heels
فَتَنقَلِبُواۡ
then you will turn back
خَـٰسِرِينَ
(as) losers
١٤٩
O you who have believed, if you obey those who disbelieve, they will turn you back on your heels, and you will [then] become losers.
3:150
بَلِ
Nay
ٱللَّهُ
Allah
مَوۡلَـٰكُمۡ‌ۖ

But Allāh is your protector, and He is the best of helpers.
3:151
سَنُلۡقِى
We will cast
فِى
in
قُلُوبِ
(the) hearts
ٱلَّذِينَ
(of) those who
كَفَرُواۡ
disbelieve
ٱلرُّعۡبَ
[the] terror
بِمَآ
because
أَشۡرَكُواۡ
they associated partners
بِٱللَّهِ
with Allah
مَا
what
لَمۡ
not
يُنَزِّلۡ
He sent down
بِهِۦ
about it
سُلۡطَـٰنًا‌ۖ
any authority
وَمَأۡوَٮٰهُمُ
and their refuge
ٱلنَّارُ‌ۚ
(will be) the Fire
وَبِئۡسَ
and wretched
مَثۡوَى
(is the) abode
ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ
[of] the wrongdoers
١٥١
We will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve for what they have associated with Allāh of which He had not sent down [any] authority.1 And their refuge will be the Fire, and wretched is the residence of the wrongdoers.
3:152
وَلَقَدۡ
And certainly
صَدَقَكُمُ
fulfilled to you
ٱللَّهُ
Allah
وَعۡدَهُۥٓ
His promise
إِذۡ
when
تَحُسُّونَهُم
you were killing them
بِإِذۡنِهِۦ‌ۖ
by His permission
حَتَّىٰٓ
until
إِذَا
when
فَشِلۡتُمۡ
you lost courage
وَتَنَـٰزَعۡتُمۡ
and you fell into dispute
فِى
concerning
ٱلۡأَمۡرِ
the order
وَعَصَيۡتُم
and you disobeyed
مِّنۢ
from
بَعۡدِ
after
مَآ
[what]
أَرَٮٰكُم
He (had) shown you
مَّا

Among you

desire
ٱلدُّنۡيَا
the world
وَمِنكُم
and among you
مَّن
(are some) who
يُرِيدُ
desire
ٱلۡأَخِرَةَ‌ۚ
the Hereafter
ثُمَّ
Then
صَرَفَكُمۡ
He diverted you
عَنۡهُمۡ
from them
لِيَبۡتَلِيَكُمۡ‌ۖ
so that He may test you
وَلَقَدۡ
And surely
عَفَا
He forgave
عَنكُمۡ‌ۗ
you
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
ذُو
(is the) Possessor
فَضۡلٍ
(of) Bounty
عَلَى
for
ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ
the believers
١٥٢
And Allāh had certainly fulfilled His promise to you when you were killing them [i.e., the enemy] by His permission until [the time] when you lost courage and fell to disputing about the order [given by the Prophet (ﷺ)] and disobeyed after He had shown you that which you love.1 Among you are some who desire this world, and among you are some who desire the Hereafter. Then He turned you back from them [defeated] that He might test you. And He has already forgiven you, and Allāh is the possessor of bounty for the believers.
3:153
۞إِذۡ
When
تُصۡعِدُونَ
you were running uphill
وَلَا

وَٱلرَّسُولُ
while the Messenger
يَدۡعُوكُمۡ
was calling you
فِىٓ
[in]
أُخۡرَٮٰكُمۡ
(from) behind you
فَأَثَـٰبَكُمۡ
So (He) repaid you
غَمَّۢا
(with) distress
بِغَمٍّ
on distress
لِّكَيۡلَا
so that not
تَحۡزَنُواۡ
you grieve
عَلَىٰ
over
مَا

فَاتَكُمۡ
escaped you
وَلَا

(had) befallen you
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
خَبِيرُۢ
(is) All-Aware
بِمَا
of what
تَعۡمَلُونَ
you do
١٥٣
[Remember] when you [fled and] climbed [the mountain] without looking aside at anyone while the Messenger was calling you from behind. So Allāh repaid you with distress upon distress so you would not grieve for that which had escaped you [of victory and spoils of war] or [for] that which had befallen you [of injury and death]. And Allāh is [fully] Aware of what you do.
3:154
ثُمَّ
Then
أَنزَلَ
He sent down
عَلَيۡكُم
upon you
مِّنۢ

ٱلۡغَمِّ
the distress
أَمَنَةً
security
نُّعَاسًا

طَآئِفَةً
a group

of you
وَطَآئِفَةٌ
while a group
قَدۡ

أَهَمَّتۡهُمۡ
worried [them]
أَنفُسُهُمۡ
(about) themselves
يَظُنُّونَ
thinking
بِٱللَّهِ
about Allah
غَيۡرَ
other than
ٱلۡحَقِّ
the truth
ظَنَّ
(the) thought
ٱلۡجَـٰهِلِيَّةِ‌ۖ
(of) [the] ignorance
يَقُولُونَ
saying
هَل

مِنَ
from
ٱلۡأَمۡرِ

Indeed

They hide

they reveal
لَكَ‌ۖ
to you
يَقُولُونَ
They say
لَوۡ
If

for us
مِنَ
from
ٱلۡأَمۡرِ
the matter

anything
مَّا

we would have been killed
هَـٰهُنَا‌ۗ
here
قُل
Say
لَّوۡ
If
كُنتُمۡ
you were
فِى
in
بُيُوتِكُمۡ
your houses
لَبَرَزَ
surely (would have) come out
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who
كُتِبَ
was decreed
عَلَيۡهِمُ
upon them
ٱلۡقَتۡلُ
[the] death
إِلَىٰ
towards
مَضَاجِعِهِمۡ‌ۖ
their places of death
وَلِيَبۡتَلِىَ
And that might test
ٱللَّهُ
Allah
مَا
what
فِى
(is) in
صُدُورِكُمۡ
your breasts
وَلِيُمَحِّصَ
and that He may purge
مَا

قُلُوبِكُمۡ‌ۗ
your hearts
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
عَلِيمُۢ
(is) All-Aware
بِذَاتِ
of what
ٱلصُّدُورِ
(is in) the breasts
١٥٤
Then after distress, He sent down upon you security [in the form of] drowsiness, overcoming a faction of you, while another faction worried about themselves, thinking of Allāh other than the truth - the thought of ignorance, saying, "Is there anything for us [to have done] in this matter?" Say, "Indeed, the matter belongs completely to Allāh." They conceal within themselves what they will not reveal to you. They say, "If there was anything we could have done in the matter, we [i.e., some of us] would not have been killed right here." Say, "Even if you had been inside your houses, those decreed to be killed would have come out to their death beds." [It was] so that Allāh might test what is in your breasts and purify what is in your hearts. And Allāh is Knowing of that within the breasts.
3:155
إِنَّ
Indeed
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who
تَوَلَّوۡاۡ
turned back
مِنكُمۡ
among you
يَوۡمَ
(on the) day
ٱلۡتَقَى
met
ٱلۡجَمۡعَانِ
the two hosts
إِنَّمَا
only
ٱسۡتَزَلَّهُمُ
made them slip
ٱلشَّيۡطَـٰنُ
the Shaitaan
بِبَعۡضِ
for some
مَا
(of) what
كَسَبُواۡ‌ۖ
they (had) earned
وَلَقَدۡ
And surely
عَفَا
forgave
ٱللَّهُ
Allah
عَنۡهُمۡ‌ۗ
[on] them
إِنَّ
indeed
ٱللَّهَ
Allah
غَفُورٌ
(is) Oft-Forgiving
حَلِيمٌ
All-Forbearing
١٥٥
Indeed, those of you who turned back on the day the two armies met [at Uḥud] - it was Satan who caused them to slip because of some [blame] they had earned. But Allāh has already forgiven them. Indeed, Allāh is Forgiving and Forbearing.
3:156
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا
O you
ٱلَّذِينَ
who
ءَامَنُواۡ
believe[d]
لَا
(Do) not
تَكُونُواۡ
be
كَٱلَّذِينَ
like those who
كَفَرُواۡ
disbelieved
وَقَالُواۡ
and they said
لِإِخۡوٰنِهِمۡ
about their brothers
إِذَا
when
ضَرَبُواۡ
they traveled
فِى
in
ٱلۡأَرۡضِ
the earth
أَوۡ
or
كَانُواۡ
they were
غُزًّى
fighting
لَّوۡ
If
كَانُواۡ
they had been
عِندَنَا
with us
مَا
not
مَاتُواۡ
they (would have) died
وَمَا
and not
قُتِلُواۡ
they (would have) been killed
لِيَجۡعَلَ
So makes
ٱللَّهُ
Allah
ذٰلِكَ
that
حَسۡرَةً
a regret
فِى
in
قُلُوبِهِمۡ‌ۗ
their hearts
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
يُحۡىِۦ
gives life
وَيُمِيتُ‌ۗ
and causes death
وَٱللَّهُ
and Allah
بِمَا
of what
تَعۡمَلُونَ
you do
بَصِيرٌ
(is) All-Seer
١٥٦
O you who have believed, do not be like those who disbelieved and said about their brothers when they traveled through the land or went out to fight, "If they had been with us, they would not have died or have been killed," so Allāh makes that [misconception] a regret within their hearts. And it is Allāh who gives life and causes death, and Allāh is Seeing of what you do.
3:157
وَلَئِن
And if
قُتِلۡتُمۡ
you are killed
فِى
in
سَبِيلِ
(the) way
ٱللَّهِ
(of) Allah
أَوۡ
or
مُتُّمۡ
die[d]
لَمَغۡفِرَةٌ
certainly forgiveness
مِّنَ
from
ٱللَّهِ
Allah
وَرَحۡمَةٌ
and Mercy
خَيۡرٌ
(are) better
مِّمَّا
than what
يَجۡمَعُونَ
they accumulate
١٥٧
And if you are killed in the cause of Allāh or die - then forgiveness from Allāh and mercy are better than whatever they accumulate [in this world].
3:158
وَلَئِن
And if
مُّتُّمۡ
you die
أَوۡ
or
قُتِلۡتُمۡ
are killed
لَإِلَى
surely to
ٱللَّهِ
Allah
تُحۡشَرُونَ
you will be gathered
١٥٨
And whether you die or are killed, unto Allāh you will be gathered.
3:159
فَبِمَا
So because
رَحۡمَةٍ
(of) Mercy
مِّنَ
from
ٱللَّهِ
Allah
لِنتَ
you dealt gently
لَهُمۡ‌ۖ
with them
وَلَوۡ
And if
كُنتَ
you had been
فَظًّا
rude
غَلِيظَ
(and) harsh
ٱلۡقَلۡبِ
(at) [the] heart
لَٱنفَضُّواۡ
surely they (would have) dispersed
مِنۡ
from
حَوۡلِكَ‌ۖ
around you
فَٱعۡفُ
Then pardon
عَنۡهُمۡ
[from] them
وَٱسۡتَغۡفِرۡ
and ask forgiveness
لَهُمۡ
for them
وَشَاوِرۡهُمۡ
and consult them
فِى
in
ٱلۡأَمۡرِ‌ۖ
the matter
فَإِذَا
Then when
عَزَمۡتَ
you have decided
فَتَوَكَّلۡ
then put trust
عَلَى
on
ٱللَّهِ‌ۚ
Allah
إِنَّ
Indeed
ٱللَّهَ
Allah
يُحِبُّ
loves
ٱلۡمُتَوَكِّلِينَ
the ones who put trust (in Him)
١٥٩
So by mercy from Allāh, [O Muḥammad], you were lenient with them. And if you had been rude [in speech] and harsh in heart, they would have disbanded from about you. So pardon them and ask forgiveness for them and consult them in the matter. And when you have decided, then rely upon Allāh. Indeed, Allāh loves those who rely [upon Him].
3:160
إِن
If
يَنصُرۡكُمُ

وَإِن
and if
يَخۡذُلۡكُمۡ
He forsakes you
فَمَن

after Him
وَعَلَى
And on
ٱللَّهِ
Allah
فَلۡيَتَوَكَّلِ
let put (their) trust
ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنُونَ
the believers
١٦٠
If Allāh should aid you, no one can overcome you; but if He should forsake you, who is there that can aid you after Him? And upon Allāh let the believers rely.
3:161
وَمَا
And not
كَانَ
is
لِنَبِىٍّ
for a Prophet
أَن
that
يَغُلَّ‌ۚ
he defrauds
وَمَن
And whoever
يَغۡلُلۡ
defrauds
يَأۡتِ
will bring
بِمَا
what
غَلَّ
he had defrauded
يَوۡمَ
(on the) Day
ٱلۡقِيَـٰمَةِ‌ۚ
(of) Resurrection
ثُمَّ
Then
تُوَفَّىٰ
is repaid in full
كُلُّ
every

soul
مَّا
what
كَسَبَتۡ
it earned
وَهُمۡ
and they
لَا
(will) not
يُظۡلَمُونَ
be wronged
١٦١
It is not [attributable] to any prophet that he would act unfaithfully [in regard to war booty]. And whoever betrays, [taking unlawfully], will come with what he took on the Day of Resurrection. Then will every soul be [fully] compensated for what it earned, and they will not be wronged.
3:162
أَفَمَنِ
So is (the one) who
ٱتَّبَعَ
pursues
رِضۡوٰنَ
(the) pleasure
ٱللَّهِ
(of) Allah
كَمَنۢ
like (the one) who
بَآءَ
draws

on (himself) wrath
مِّنَ
of
ٱللَّهِ
Allah
وَمَأۡوَٮٰهُ
and his abode
جَهَنَّمُ‌ۚ
(is) hell
وَبِئۡسَ
and wretched
ٱلۡمَصِيرُ
(is) the destination
١٦٢
So is one who pursues the pleasure of Allāh like one who brings upon himself the anger of Allāh and whose refuge is Hell? And wretched is the destination.
3:163
هُمۡ
They
دَرَجَـٰتٌ

Allah

١٦٣
They are [varying] degrees in the sight of Allāh, and Allāh is Seeing of whatever they do.
3:164
لَقَدۡ
Certainly

bestowed a Favor
ٱللَّهُ
Allah
عَلَى
upon
ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ
the believers

بَعَثَ
He raised

a Messenger
مِّنۡ

themselves
يَتۡلُواۡ
reciting
عَلَيۡهِمۡ
to them
ءَايَـٰتِهِۦ
His Verses
وَيُزَكِّيهِمۡ
and purifying them
وَيُعَلِّمُهُمُ
and teaching them
ٱلۡكِتَـٰبَ
the Book
وَٱلۡحِكۡمَةَ
and the wisdom
وَإِن
although
كَانُواۡ
they were
مِن
from
قَبۡلُ
before (that)
لَفِى
certainly in
ضَلَـٰلٍ
(the) error
مُّبِينٍ
clear
١٦٤
Certainly did Allāh confer [great] favor upon the believers when He sent among them a Messenger from themselves, reciting to them His verses and purifying them and teaching them the Book [i.e., the Qur’ān] and wisdom,1 although they had been before in manifest error.
3:165
أَوَلَمَّآ
Or when
أَصَـٰبَتۡكُم
struck you
مُّصِيبَةٌ
disaster
قَدۡ
surely
أَصَبۡتُم
you (had) struck (them)
مِّثۡلَيۡهَا
twice of it
قُلۡتُمۡ
you said
أَنَّىٰ
From where
هَـٰذَا‌ۖ

هُوَ
It

Indeed
ٱللَّهَ
Allah
عَلَىٰ

All-Powerful
١٦٥
Why [is it that] when a [single] disaster struck you [on the day of Uḥud], although you had struck [the enemy in the battle of Badr] with one twice as great, you said, "From where is this?" Say, "It is from yourselves [i.e., due to your sin]." Indeed, Allāh is over all things competent.
3:166
وَمَآ
And what
أَصَـٰبَكُمۡ
struck you
يَوۡمَ
(on the) day
ٱلۡتَقَى
(when) met
ٱلۡجَمۡعَانِ
the two hosts
فَبِإِذۡنِ

ٱللَّهِ
(of) Allah
وَلِيَعۡلَمَ
and that He (might) make evident
ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ
the believers
١٦٦
And what struck you on the day the two armies met [at Uḥud] was by permission of Allāh that He might make evident the [true] believers
3:167
وَلِيَعۡلَمَ
And that He (might) make evident
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who
نَافَقُواۡ‌ۚ
(are) hypocrites
وَقِيلَ
And it was said
لَهُمۡ
to them
تَعَالَوۡاۡ
Come
قَـٰتِلُواۡ
fight
فِى
in
سَبِيلِ
(the) way
ٱللَّهِ
(of) Allah
أَوِ
or
ٱدۡفَعُواۡ‌ۖ
defend
قَالُواۡ
They said
لَوۡ
If
نَعۡلَمُ

certainly we (would have) followed you
هُمۡ
They
لِلۡكُفۡرِ

يَوۡمَئِذٍ
that day
أَقۡرَبُ
(were) nearer
مِنۡهُمۡ
than [them]
لِلۡإِيمَـٰنِ‌ۚ
to the faith
يَقُولُونَ
saying

وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
أَعۡلَمُ

بِمَا
of what
يَكۡتُمُونَ
they conceal
١٦٧
And that He might make evident those who are hypocrites. For it was said to them, "Come, fight in the way of Allāh or [at least] defend." They said, "If we had known [there would be] battle, we would have followed you." They were nearer to disbelief that day than to faith, saying with their mouths what was not in their hearts. And Allāh is most knowing of what they conceal -
3:168
ٱلَّذِينَ
Those who

١٦٨
Those who said about their brothers while sitting [at home], "If they had obeyed us, they would not have been killed." Say, "Then prevent death from yourselves, if you should be truthful."
3:169
وَلَا
And (do) not

They are alive

١٦٩
And never think of those who have been killed in the cause of Allāh as dead. Rather, they are alive with their Lord, receiving provision,
3:170
فَرِحِينَ
Rejoicing
بِمَآ
in what

bestowed them
ٱللَّهُ
Allah

His Bounty
وَيَسۡتَبۡشِرُونَ
and they receive good tidings

Rejoicing in what Allāh has bestowed upon them of His bounty, and they receive good tidings about those [to be martyred] after them who have not yet joined them - that there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve.
3:171
۞يَسۡتَبۡشِرُونَ
They receive good tidings
بِنِعۡمَةٍ
of Favor
مِّنَ
from
ٱللَّهِ
Allah
وَفَضۡلٍ
and Bounty
وَأَنَّ
and that
ٱللَّهَ
Allah
لَا
(does) not

let go waste
أَجۡرَ
(the) reward
ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ

١٧١
They receive good tidings of favor from Allāh and bounty and [of the fact] that Allāh does not allow the reward of believers to be lost -
3:172
ٱلَّذِينَ
Those who
ٱسۡتَجَابُواۡ
responded
لِلَّهِ
to Allah
وَٱلرَّسُولِ
and the Messenger

the injury

for those who
أَحۡسَنُواۡ

مِنۡهُمۡ
among them
وَٱتَّقَوۡاۡ
and feared Allah
أَجۡرٌ
(is) a reward
عَظِيمٌ
great
١٧٢
Those [believers] who responded to Allāh and the Messenger after injury had struck them. For those who did good among them and feared Allāh is a great reward -
3:173
ٱلَّذِينَ
Those who
قَالَ
said
لَهُمُ
to them
ٱلنَّاسُ
[the people]
إِنَّ
Indeed
ٱلنَّاسَ
the people
قَدۡ
(have) certainly
جَمَعُواۡ
gathered
لَكُمۡ
against you
فَٱخۡشَوۡهُمۡ
so fear them
فَزَادَهُمۡ
But it increased them
إِيمَـٰنًا
(in) faith
وَقَالُواۡ
and they said
حَسۡبُنَا
Sufficient for us
ٱللَّهُ
(is) Allah
وَنِعۡمَ
and (He is the) best
ٱلۡوَكِيلُ
[the] Disposer of affairs
١٧٣
Those to whom people [i.e., hypocrites] said, "Indeed, the people have gathered against you, so fear them." But it [merely] increased them in faith, and they said, "Sufficient for us is Allāh, and [He is] the best Disposer of affairs."1
3:174
فَٱنقَلَبُواۡ
So they returned
بِنِعۡمَةٍ
with (the) Favor
مِّنَ
of
ٱللَّهِ
Allah
وَفَضۡلٍ
and Bounty
لَّمۡ
not
يَمۡسَسۡهُمۡ

(of) Allah
وَٱللَّهُ
and Allah
ذُو

١٧٤
So they returned with favor from Allāh and bounty, no harm having touched them. And they pursued the pleasure of Allāh, and Allāh is the possessor of great bounty.
3:175
إِنَّمَا
(It is) only
ذٰلِكُمُ
that
ٱلشَّيۡطَـٰنُ
the Shaitaan
يُخَوِّفُ
frightens (you)
أَوۡلِيَآءَهُۥ
(of) his allies
فَلَا
So (do) not
تَخَافُوهُمۡ
fear them
وَخَافُونِ
but fear Me
إِن
if
كُنتُم
you are
مُّؤۡمِنِينَ
believers
١٧٥
That is only Satan who frightens [you] of his supporters. So fear them not, but fear Me, if you are [indeed] believers.
3:176
وَلَا
And (let) not
يَحۡزُنكَ
grieve you
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who
يُسَـٰرِعُونَ
hasten

ٱلۡكُفۡرِ‌ۚ
[the] disbelief
إِنَّهُمۡ
Indeed, they
لَن

ٱللَّهَ
Allah
شَيۡــًٔا‌ۗ
(in) anything
يُرِيدُ
intends
ٱللَّهُ
Allah
أَلَّا
that not

He will set

ٱلۡأَخِرَةِ‌ۖ
the Hereafter
وَلَهُمۡ
And for them
عَذَابٌ
(is) a punishment
عَظِيمٌ
great
١٧٦
And do not be grieved, [O Muḥammad], by those who hasten into disbelief. Indeed, they will never harm Allāh at all. Allāh intends that He should give them no share in the Hereafter, and for them is a great punishment.
3:177
إِنَّ
Indeed
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who
ٱشۡتَرَوُاۡ
(have) purchased
ٱلۡكُفۡرَ
[the] disbelief

ٱللَّهَ
Allah
شَيۡــًٔا

١٧٧
Indeed, those who purchase disbelief [in exchange] for faith - never will they harm Allāh at all, and for them is a painful punishment.
3:178
وَلَا
And (let) not
يَحۡسَبَنَّ
think
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who
كَفَرُوٓاۡ
disbelieved

We give respite
لَهُمۡ
to them
خَيۡرٌ

إِنَّمَا
Only

We give respite

so that they may increase
إِثۡمًا‌ۚ
(in) sins
وَلَهُمۡ
and for them
عَذَابٌ

مُّهِينٌ
humiliating
١٧٨
And let not those who disbelieve ever think that [because] We extend their time [of enjoyment] it is better for them. We only extend it for them so that they may increase in sin, and for them is a humiliating punishment.
3:179
مَّا
Not
كَانَ
is
ٱللَّهُ
Allah
لِيَذَرَ
to leave
ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ
the believers

what
أَنتُمۡ

He separates
ٱلۡخَبِيثَ
the evil

ٱلطَّيِّبِ‌ۗ
the good
وَمَا
And not

ٱللَّهُ
Allah
لِيُطۡلِعَكُمۡ

the unseen
وَلَـٰكِنَّ
[and] but
ٱللَّهَ
Allah

His Messengers
مَن

يَشَآءُ‌ۖ
He wills

so believe

وَإِن

you believe
وَتَتَّقُواۡ
and fear (Allah)
فَلَكُمۡ
then for you
أَجۡرٌ
(is a) reward
عَظِيمٌ
great
١٧٩
Allāh would not leave the believers in that [state] you are in [presently] until He separates the evil from the good. Nor would Allāh reveal to you the unseen. But [instead], Allāh chooses of His messengers whom He wills, so believe in Allāh and His messengers. And if you believe and fear Him, then for you is a great reward.
3:180
وَلَا
And (let) not

ٱلَّذِينَ
those who

ٱلۡقِيَـٰمَةِ‌ۗ
(of) [the] Resurrection
وَلِلَّهِ
And for Allah
مِيرٰثُ

ٱلسَّمَـٰوٰتِ
(of) the heavens

and the earth
وَٱللَّهُ
And Allah
بِمَا
with what
تَعۡمَلُونَ
you do
خَبِيرٌ
(is) All-Aware
١٨٠
And let not those who [greedily] withhold what Allāh has given them of His bounty ever think that it is better for them. Rather, it is worse for them. Their necks will be encircled by what they withheld on the Day of Resurrection. And to Allāh belongs the heritage of the heavens and the earth. And Allāh, of what you do, is [fully] Aware.
3:181
لَّقَدۡ
Certainly

ٱللَّهُ
Allah

We will record

they said
وَقَتۡلَهُمُ
and their killing
ٱلۡأَنۢبِيَآءَ
the Prophets
بِغَيۡرِ
without
حَقٍّ
(any) right
وَنَقُولُ
and We will say
ذُوقُواۡ
Taste
عَذَابَ
(the) punishment
ٱلۡحَرِيقِ
(of) the Burning Fire
١٨١
Allāh has certainly heard the statement of those [Jews] who said, "Indeed, Allāh is poor, while we are rich." We will record what they said and their killing of the prophets without right and will say, "Taste the punishment of the Burning Fire.
3:182
ذٰلِكَ
That

ٱللَّهَ
Allah

١٨٢
That is for what your hands have put forth and because Allāh is not ever unjust to [His] servants."
3:183
ٱلَّذِينَ
Those who
قَالُوٓاۡ
said
إِنَّ
Indeed
ٱللَّهَ
Allah
عَهِدَ
(has) taken promise
إِلَيۡنَآ
from us
أَلَّا
that not
نُؤۡمِنَ
we (should) believe
لِرَسُولٍ
in a Messenger
حَتَّىٰ
until
يَأۡتِيَنَا
he brings to us
بِقُرۡبَانٍ
a sacrifice
تَأۡكُلُهُ
consumes it
ٱلنَّارُ‌ۗ
the fire
قُلۡ
Say
قَدۡ
Surely

بِٱلۡبَيِّنَـٰتِ

فَلِمَ
So why
قَتَلۡتُمُوهُمۡ
you killed them
إِن
if
كُنتُمۡ
you are
صَـٰدِقِينَ
truthful
١٨٣
[They are] those who said, "Indeed, Allāh has taken our promise not to believe any messenger until he brings us an offering which fire [from heaven] will consume." Say, "There have already come to you messengers before me with clear proofs and [even] that of which you speak. So why did you kill them, if you should be truthful?"
3:184
فَإِن
Then if
كَذَّبُوكَ
they reject you
فَقَدۡ
then certainly
كُذِّبَ
were rejected

وَٱلزُّبُرِ
and the Scriptures
وَٱلۡكِتَـٰبِ
and the Book
ٱلۡمُنِيرِ
[the] Enlightening
١٨٤
Then if they deny you, [O Muḥammad] - so were messengers denied before you, who brought clear proofs and written ordinances and the enlightening Scripture.1
3:185
كُلُّ
Every

ٱلدُّنۡيَآ
(of) the world

enjoyment
ٱلۡغُرُورِ

١٨٥
Every soul will taste death, and you will only be given your [full] compensation on the Day of Resurrection. So he who is drawn away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise has attained [his desire]. And what is the life of this world except the enjoyment of delusion.
3:186

You will surely be tested in your possessions and in yourselves. And you will surely hear from those who were given the Scripture before you and from those who associate others with Allāh much abuse. But if you are patient and fear Allāh - indeed, that is of the matters [worthy] of resolve.
3:187

And [mention, O Muḥammad], when Allāh took a covenant from those who were given the Scripture, [saying], "You must make it clear [i.e., explain it] to the people and not conceal it." But they threw it away behind their backs and exchanged it for a small price. And wretched is that which they purchased.

And their Lord responded to them, "Never will I allow to be lost the work of [any] worker among you, whether male or female; you are of one another. So those who emigrated or were evicted from their homes or were harmed in My cause or fought or were killed - I will surely remove from them their misdeeds, and I will surely admit them to gardens beneath which rivers flow as reward from Allāh, and Allāh has with Him the best reward."
