1 Surahs6 Versesركوع 23
2:177
۞لَّيۡسَ
It is not
ٱلۡبِرَّ
[the] righteousness
أَن
that
تُوَلُّواۡ
you turn
وُجُوهَكُمۡ
your faces
قِبَلَ
towards
ٱلۡمَشۡرِقِ
the east
وَٱلۡمَغۡرِبِ
and the west
وَلَـٰكِنَّ
[and] but
ٱلۡبِرَّ
the righteous[ness]
مَنۡ
(is he) who
ءَامَنَ
believes
بِٱللَّهِ
in Allah
وَٱلۡيَوۡمِ
and the Day
ٱلۡأَخِرِ
[the] Last
وَٱلۡمَلَـٰٓئِكَةِ
and the Angels
وَٱلۡكِتَـٰبِ
and the Book
وَٱلنَّبِيِّــۧنَ
and the Prophets
وَءَاتَى
and gives
ٱلۡمَالَ
the wealth
عَلَىٰ
in
حُبِّهِۦ
spite of his love (for it)
ذَوِى
(to) those
ٱلۡقُرۡبَىٰ
(of) the near relatives
وَٱلۡيَتَـٰمَىٰ
and the orphans
وَٱلۡمَسَـٰكِينَ
and the needy
وَٱبۡنَ
and (of)
ٱلسَّبِيلِ
the wayfarer
وَٱلسَّآئِلِينَ
and those who ask
وَفِى
and in
ٱلرِّقَابِ
freeing the necks (slaves)
وَأَقَامَ
and (who) establish
ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ
the prayer
وَءَاتَى
and give
ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ
the zakah
وَٱلۡمُوفُونَ
and those who fulfill
بِعَهۡدِهِمۡ
their covenant
إِذَا
when
عَـٰهَدُواۡ‌ۖ
they make it
وَٱلصَّـٰبِرِينَ
and those who are patient
فِى
in
ٱلۡبَأۡسَآءِ
[the] suffering
وَٱلضَّرَّآءِ
and [the] hardship
وَحِينَ
and (the) time
ٱلۡبَأۡسِ‌ۗ
(of) [the] stress
أُوۡلَـٰٓئِكَ
Those
ٱلَّذِينَ
(are) the ones who
صَدَقُواۡ‌ۖ
are true
وَأُوۡلَـٰٓئِكَ
and those
هُمُ
[they]
ٱلۡمُتَّقُونَ
(are) the righteous
١٧٧
Righteousness is not that you turn your faces toward the east or the west, but [true] righteousness is [in] one who believes in Allāh, the Last Day, the angels, the Book, and the prophets and gives wealth, in spite of love for it, to relatives, orphans, the needy, the traveler, those who ask [for help], and for freeing slaves; [and who] establishes prayer and gives zakāh; [those who] fulfill their promise when they promise; and [those who] are patient in poverty and hardship and during battle. Those are the ones who have been true, and it is those who are the righteous.
2:178
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا
O you
ٱلَّذِينَ
who
ءَامَنُواۡ
believe[d]
كُتِبَ
Prescribed
عَلَيۡكُمُ
for you
ٱلۡقِصَاصُ
(is) the legal retribution
فِى
in
ٱلۡقَتۡلَى‌ۖ
(the matter of) the murdered
ٱلۡحُرُّ
the freeman
بِٱلۡحُرِّ
for the freeman
وَٱلۡعَبۡدُ
and the slave
بِٱلۡعَبۡدِ
for the slave
وَٱلۡأُنثَىٰ
and the female
بِٱلۡأُنثَىٰ‌ۚ
for the female
فَمَنۡ
But whoever
عُفِىَ
is pardoned
لَهُۥ
[for it]
مِنۡ
from
أَخِيهِ
his brother
شَىۡءٌ
anything
فَٱتِّبَاعُۢ
then follows up
بِٱلۡمَعۡرُوفِ
with suitable
وَأَدَآءٌ
[and] payment
إِلَيۡهِ
to him
بِإِحۡسَـٰنٍ‌ۗ
with kindness
ذٰلِكَ
That (is)
تَخۡفِيفٌ
a concession
مِّن
from
رَّبِّكُمۡ
your Lord
وَرَحۡمَةٌ‌ۗ
and mercy
فَمَنِ
Then whoever
ٱعۡتَدَىٰ
transgresses
بَعۡدَ
after
ذٰلِكَ
that
فَلَهُۥ
then for him
عَذَابٌ
(is) a punishment
أَلِيمٌ
painful
١٧٨
O you who have believed, prescribed for you is legal retribution for those murdered - the free for the free, the slave for the slave, and the female for the female.1 But whoever overlooks from his brother [i.e., the killer] anything,2 then there should be a suitable follow-up and payment to him [i.e., the deceased's heir or legal representative] with good conduct. This is an alleviation from your Lord and a mercy. But whoever transgresses after that3 will have a painful punishment.
2:179
وَلَكُمۡ
And for you
فِى
in
ٱلۡقِصَاصِ
the legal retribution
حَيَوٰةٌ
(is) life
يَـٰٓأُوۡلِى
O men
ٱلۡأَلۡبَـٰبِ
(of) understanding
لَعَلَّكُمۡ
So that you may
تَتَّقُونَ
(become) righteous
١٧٩
And there is for you in legal retribution [saving of] life, O you [people] of understanding, that you may become righteous.1
2:180
كُتِبَ
Prescribed
عَلَيۡكُمۡ
for you
إِذَا
when
حَضَرَ
approaches
أَحَدَكُمُ
any of you
ٱلۡمَوۡتُ
[the] death
إِن
if
تَرَكَ
he leaves
خَيۡرًا
good
ٱلۡوَصِيَّةُ
(making) the will
لِلۡوٰلِدَيۡنِ
for the parents
وَٱلۡأَقۡرَبِينَ
and the near relatives
بِٱلۡمَعۡرُوفِ‌ۖ
with due fairness
حَقًّا
a duty
عَلَى
on
ٱلۡمُتَّقِينَ
the righteous ones
١٨٠
Prescribed for you when death approaches [any] one of you if he leaves wealth [is that he should make] a bequest for the parents and near relatives according to what is acceptable - a duty upon the righteous.1
2:181
فَمَنۢ
Then whoever
بَدَّلَهُۥ
changes it
بَعۡدَمَا
after what
سَمِعَهُۥ
he (has) heard [it]
فَإِنَّمَآ
so only
إِثۡمُهُۥ
its sin
عَلَى
(would be) on
ٱلَّذِينَ
those who
يُبَدِّلُونَهُۥٓ‌ۚ
alter it
إِنَّ
Indeed
ٱللَّهَ
Allah
سَمِيعٌ
(is) All-Hearing
عَلِيمٌ
All-Knowing
١٨١
Then whoever alters it [i.e., the bequest] after he has heard it - the sin is only upon those who have altered it. Indeed, Allāh is Hearing and Knowing.
2:182
فَمَنۡ
But whoever
خَافَ
fears
مِن
from
مُّوصٍ
(the) testator
جَنَفًا
(any) error
أَوۡ
or
إِثۡمًا
sin
فَأَصۡلَحَ
then reconciles
بَيۡنَهُمۡ
between them
فَلَآ
then (there is) no
إِثۡمَ
sin
عَلَيۡهِ‌ۚ
on him
إِنَّ
Indeed
ٱللَّهَ
Allah
غَفُورٌ
(is) Oft-Forgiving
رَّحِيمٌ
All-Merciful
١٨٢
But if one fears from the bequeather [some] error or sin and corrects that which is between them [i.e., the concerned parties], there is no sin upon him. Indeed, Allāh is Forgiving and Merciful.
