And let not pity for the twain withhold you from obedience to Allah, if ye believe in Allah and the Last Day. And let a party of believers witness their punishment. | الزَّانِيَةُ وَالزَّانِي فَاجْلِدُوا كُلَّ وَاحِد ٍ مِنْهُمَا مِائَةَ جَلْدَة ٍ وَلاَ تَأْخُذْكُمْ بِهِمَا رَأْفَة ٌ فِي دِينِ اللَّهِ إِنْ كُنتُمْ تُؤْمِنُونَ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الآخِرِ وَلْيَشْهَدْ عَذَابَهُمَا طَائِفَة ٌ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ |

Deem it not a bad thing for you; nay, it is good for you. Unto every man of them (will be paid) that which he hath earned of the sin; and as for him among them who had the greater share therein, his will be an awful doom. | إِنَّ الَّذِينَ جَاءُوا بِالإِفْكِ عُصْبَة ٌ مِنْكُمْ لاَ تَحْسَبُوه ُُ شَرّا ً لَكُمْ بَلْ هُوَ خَيْر ٌ لَكُمْ لِكُلِّ امْرِئ ٍ مِنْهُمْ مَا اكْتَسَبَ مِنَ الإِثْمِ وَالَّذِي تَوَلَّى كِبْرَه ُُ مِنْهُمْ لَه ُُ عَذَابٌ عَظِيم ٌ |
| Lawlā 'Idh Sami`tumūhu Žanna Al-Mu'uminūna Wa Al-Mu'uminātu Bi'anfusihim Khayrāan Wa Qālū Hādhā 'Ifkun Mubīnun | 024.012 Why did not the believers, men and women, when ye heard it, think good of their own own folk, and say: It is a manifest untruth ? | لَوْلاَ إِذْ سَمِعْتُمُوه ُُ ظَنَّ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَاتُ بِأَنفُسِهِمْ خَيْرا ً وَقَالُوا هَذَا إِفْك ٌ مُبِين ٌ |

Since they produce not witnesses, they verily are liars in the sight of Allah. | لَوْلاَ جَاءُوا عَلَيْهِ بِأَرْبَعَةِ شُهَدَاءَ فَإِذْ لَمْ يَأْتُوا بِالشُّهَدَاءِ فَأُوْلَائِكَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ هُمُ الْكَاذِبُونَ |

In the sight of Allah it is very great. | إِذْ تَلَقَّوْنَه ُُ بِأَلْسِنَتِكُمْ وَتَقُولُونَ بِأَفْوَاهِكُمْ مَا لَيْسَ لَكُمْ بِه ِِ عِلْم ٌ وَتَحْسَبُونَه ُُ هَيِّنا ً وَهُوَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ عَظِيم ٌ |

Glory be to Thee (O Allah)! This is awful calumny. | وَلَوْلاَ إِذْ سَمِعْتُمُوه ُُ قُلْتُمْ مَا يَكُونُ لَنَا أَنْ نَتَكَلَّمَ بِهَذَا سُبْحَانَكَ هَذَا بُهْتَانٌ عَظِيم ٌ |

Follow not the footsteps of the devil. Unto whomsoever followeth the footsteps of the devil, lo! he commandeth filthiness and wrong. Had it not been for the grace of Allah and His mercy unto you, not one of you would ever have grown pure. But Allah causeth whom He will to grow. And Allah is Hearer, Knower. | يَاأَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لاَ تَتَّبِعُوا خُطُوَاتِ الشَّيْطَانِ وَمَنْ يَتَّبِعْ خُطُوَاتِ الشَّيْطَانِ فَإِنَّه ُُ يَأْمُرُ بِالْفَحْشَاءِ وَالْمُنْكَرِ وَلَوْلاَ فَضْلُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَتُه ُُ مَا زَكَا مِنْكُمْ مِنْ أَحَدٍ أَبَدا ً وَلَكِنَّ اللَّهَ يُزَكِّي مَنْ يَشَاءُ وَاللَّهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيم ٌ |

Let them forgive and show indulgence. Yearn ye not that Allah may forgive you ? Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. | وَلاَ يَأْتَلِ أُوْلُوا الْفَضْلِ مِنْكُمْ وَالسَّعَةِ أَنْ يُؤْتُوا أُوْلِي الْقُرْبَى وَالْمَسَاكِينَ وَالْمُهَاجِرِينَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَلْيَعْفُوا وَلْيَصْفَحُوا أَلاَ تُحِبُّونَ أَنْ يَغْفِرَ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ وَاللَّهُ غَفُور ٌ رَحِيم ٌ |

Force not your slave-girls to whoredom that ye may seek enjoyment of the life of the world, if they would preserve their chastity. And if one force them, then (unto them), after their compulsion, lo! Allah will be Forgiving, Merciful. | وَلْيَسْتَعْفِفِ الَّذِينَ لاَ يَجِدُونَ نِكَاحاً حَتَّى يُغْنِيَهُمُ اللَّهُ مِنْ فَضْلِه ِِ وَالَّذِينَ يَبْتَغُونَ الْكِتَابَ مِمَّا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَانُكُمْ فَكَاتِبُوهُمْ إِنْ عَلِمْتُمْ فِيهِمْ خَيْرا ً وَآتُوهُمْ مِنْ مَالِ اللَّهِ الَّذِي آتَاكُمْ وَلاَ تُكْرِهُوا فَتَيَاتِكُمْ عَلَى الْبِغَاءِ إِنْ أَرَدْنَ تَحَصُّنا ً لِتَبْتَغُوا عَرَضَ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَمَنْ يُكْرِهُّنَّ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ مِنْ بَعْدِ إِكْرَاهِهِنَّ غَفُور ٌ رَحِيم ٌ |

An admonition unto those who ward off (evil). | وَلَقَدْ أَنزَلْنَا إِلَيْكُمْ آيَات ٍ مُبَيِّنَات ٍ وَمَثَلا ً مِنَ الَّذِينَ خَلَوْا مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ وَمَوْعِظَة ً لِلْمُتَّقِينَ |

The similitude of His light is as a niche wherein is a lamp. The lamp is in a glass. The glass is as it were a shining star. (This lamp is) kindled from a blessed tree, an olive neither of the East nor of the West, whose oil would almost glow forth (of itself) though no fire touched it. Light upon light. Allah guideth unto His light whom He will. And Allah speaketh to mankind in allegories, for Allah is Knower of all things. | اللَّهُ نُورُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ مَثَلُ نُورِه ِِ كَمِشْكَاة ٍ فِيهَا مِصْبَاح ٌ الْمِصْبَاحُ فِي زُجَاجَة ٍ الزُّجَاجَةُ كَأَنَّهَا كَوْكَب ٌ دُرِّيّ ٌ يُوقَدُ مِنْ شَجَرَة ٍ مُبَارَكَة ٍ زَيْتُونِة ٍ لاَ شَرْقِيَّة ٍ وَلاَ غَرْبِيَّة ٍ يَكَادُ زَيْتُهَا يُضِيءُ وَلَوْ لَمْ تَمْسَسْهُ نَار ٌ نُورٌ عَلَى نُور ٍ يَهْدِي اللَّهُ لِنُورِه ِِ مَنْ يَشَاءُ وَيَضْرِبُ اللَّهُ الأَمْثَالَ لِلنَّاسِ وَاللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيم ٌ |

Therein do offer praise to Him at morn and evening. | فِي بُيُوتٍ أَذِنَ اللَّهُ أَنْ تُرْفَعَ وَيُذْكَرَ فِيهَا اسْمُه ُُ يُسَبِّحُ لَه ُُ فِيهَا بِالْغُدُوِّ وَالآصَالِ |

Allah giveth blessings without stint to whom He will. | لِيَجْزِيَهُمُ اللَّهُ أَحْسَنَ مَا عَمِلُوا وَيَزِيدَهُمْ مِنْ فَضْلِه ِِ وَاللَّهُ يَرْزُقُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ بِغَيْرِ حِسَاب ٍ |

There covereth him a wave, above which is a wave, above which is a cloud. Layer upon layer of darkness. When he holdeth out his hand he scarce can see it. And he for whom Allah hath not appointed light, for him there is no light. | أَوْ كَظُلُمَات ٍ فِي بَحْر ٍ لُجِّيّ ٍ يَغْشَاه ُُ مَوْج ٌ مِنْ فَوْقِه ِِ مَوْج ٌ مِنْ فَوْقِه ِِ سَحَاب ٌ ظُلُمَات ٌ بَعْضُهَا فَوْقَ بَعْض ٍ إِذَا أَخْرَجَ يَدَه ُُ لَمْ يَكَدْ يَرَاهَا وَمَنْ لَمْ يَجْعَلِ اللَّهُ لَه ُُ نُورا ً فَمَا لَه ُُ مِنْ نُور ٍ |
