Holy Quran Part La yuhibbu Allahu with English translation by Dr Tahir ul Qadri

لَا يُحِبُّ اللهُ

148. Allah does not like the public utterance of hateful speech except by someone who has been a victim of oppression. And Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.

149. Whether you reveal a good act, conceal it or pardon an evil—Allah is indeed All-Pardoning, All-Mighty.

150. Surely, those who disbelieve in Allah and His Messengers, and seek to differentiate between Allah and His Messengers, and say: ‘We believe in some and disbelieve in others,’ and they want to take a (compromising) path in between—

151. they are the ones who are truly disbelievers. And We have prepared for the disbelievers a humiliating punishment.

152. And those who believe in Allah and His messengers, and make no distinction between any of them—He will surely give them their rewards, and Allah is Most-Forgiving, All-Merciful.

154. And We raised the Mount (Sinai) over them for the sake of their covenant. Then We said to them: ‘Enter the gate prostrating.’ And We said to them: ‘Do not violate the Sabbath (i.e. the prohibition of fishing on Saturday).’ And We took from them a firm covenant.

156. And (they were condemned) for their denial (of the truth), and their uttering a terrible slander against Maryam (Mary),

158. Rather, Allah raised him up to Himself, and Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise.

159. And there is none among the People of the Book but will surely believe in him before his death. And on the Day of Resurrection, he will be a witness against them.

160. And for the wrongdoings of the Jews, We prohibited them certain good things that were (formerly) permitted to them, and for their barring many (people) from the way of Allah.

161. And for their taking usury, though they had been forbidden from it, and for wrongfully consuming people’s wealth, We have prepared a painful punishment for the disbelievers among them.

164. And (many other) messengers, We have mentioned to you before and (some other) messengers We have not mentioned to you, and Allah spoke to Musa (Moses) directly.

165. The messengers (were sent), as bearers of glad tidings and as warners so that people may not have any excuse before Allah after (the sending of) the messengers. And Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise.

166. But Allah (Himself) bears witness to what He has revealed to you (Esteemed Prophet). He sent it down with His knowledge, and the angels bear witness (too). And Allah suffices as a Witness.

167. Indeed, those who disbelieve and bar (others) from the path of Allah have certainly strayed far into error.

168. Indeed, those who disbelieve and act unjustly, Allah shall never forgive them, nor shall He guide them to any path (on the Day of Judgement),

169. except the path to Hell, to abide therein forever and ever. And that is easy for Allah.

170. O people! Indeed the Messenger (blessings and peace be upon him) has come to you with the truth from your Lord. So believe! It is better for you. And if you disbelieve, still to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and the earth. And Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise.

172. The Messiah would never disdain being a servant of Allah, nor the angels brought nearest to Him. And whoever disdains His worship and is arrogant, He will surely gather them all towards Him.

174. O humankind! Indeed, conclusive evidence (i.e. the Prophet Muhammad (blessings and peace be upon him) has come to you from your Lord, and (besides,) We have sent down to you a clear light (i.e. the Holy Qur’an).

175. As for those who believe in Allah and hold fast to Him, He will surely admit them to mercy from Him and grace, and He will guide them to Himself through the straight path.

1. O believers! Fulfil (your) promises. All grazing livestock are permitted to you, except what is (now) announced to you, disallowing the hunting of game while you are in pilgrim sanctity. Indeed, Allah decrees whatever He wills.

7. Remember Allah’s blessing upon you and His covenant by which He bound you when you said: ‘We hear and we obey.’ And be conscious of Allah. Indeed, Allah is All-Knowing of what is in the breasts.

8. O believers! Stand firm for Allah, bearing witness to justice, and never let the hatred of a people lead you to be unjust. Be just! That is nearer to God-consciousness. And be conscious (of your duty) to Allah. Allah is indeed All-Aware of what you do.

9. Allah has promised those who believe and perform righteous deeds (that) they shall have forgiveness and a great reward.

10. And those who disbelieve and deny Our revelations shall be the inhabitants of the Hellfire.

11. O believers! Remember Allah’s blessing upon you when (some) people sought to extend their hands against you, but He restrained their hands from you. Be conscious of Allah. And in Allah, let the believers put their trust.

14. (We also took a pledge) from those who say: ‘We are Christians.’ We took their pledge, but they (too) forgot a portion of what they were reminded. So, We let hostility and enmity arise between them till the Day of Resurrection. And soon Allah will inform them of what they had been doing.

16. Allah guides by it whosoever follows (the course of) His pleasure to the ways of peace, and He brings them out of darkness into light by His will, and He guides them to a straight path.

20. And (recall) when Musa (Moses) said to his people: ‘O my people! Remember Allah’s blessing upon you when He raised prophets among you and made you kings, and He gave you (the miraculous favours) that He had never given anyone in the world.

21. O my people! Enter the Holy Land Allah has assigned for you, and do not turn on your backs, for then you will become losers.’

22. They said: ‘O Musa (Moses)! Surely, there are dominant (and powerful) people in it, and we shall never enter it until they leave it. If they leave it, we will certainly enter.’

23. Said two men from among those feared (Allah), whom Allah had blessed: ‘Enter upon them through the gate. For once you have entered it, you shall be victorious. And put your trust in Allah if you are believers.’

24. They said: ‘O Musa (Moses)! We will never enter it as long as they remain there. So, go ahead, you and your Lord, and you both fight. We shall stay right here.’

25. He (Musa [Moses]) said: ‘My Lord! I have no control (over anyone) except for myself and my brother (Harun [Aaron]). So separate us from the rebellious people.’

26. (The Lord) said: ‘So this (land) shall be forbidden to them for forty years, while they will be wandering through the earth aimlessly. So do not grieve over the rebellious people.’

28. Even if you extend your hand towards me to kill me, I will not extend my hand towards you to kill you. Indeed, I fear Allah, the Lord of all worlds.

29. I desire you to bear (the burden of) my sin (i.e. the sin of killing me) and also your (other) sins (i.e. the preceding ones for which your offering was rejected). You will then become an inhabitant of the Fire. And that is the recompense of the wrongdoers.’

30. Then his soul prompted him to slay his brother, so he killed him; thus, he became one of the losers.

31. Then Allah sent a crow, scratching into the earth, to show him how he might bury the dead body of his brother. He said: ‘Oh, woe to me! Am I unable to be as this crow and bury my brother’s corpse?’ And he became one of the regretful.

34. Except those who repent before you overpower them; then know that Allah is Most-Forgiving, All-Merciful.

35. O believers! Be conscious of Allah, seek the means that bring you closer to Him, and strive hard in His way, so that you may be prosperous.

36. Indeed, if the disbelievers were to possess everything on the earth and twice over (and offer it all) to ransom themselves from the punishment of the Day of Resurrection, it shall not be accepted from them. And there will be a painful punishment for them.

37. They will wish to come out from the Fire, but they shall never be able to leave it, and there is a lasting punishment for them.

38. As for the male and female thieves, cut off their hands as a requital for what they have done. (That is) an exemplary punishment from Allah. And Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise.

39. But whoever repents after his wrongdoing and reforms (himself), then Allah shall accept his repentance. Indeed, Allah is Most-Forgiving, All-Merciful.

40. Do you not know that to Allah belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth? He punishes whomever He wills and forgives whomever He pleases. And Allah is All-Capable of everything.

42. (They are) listeners of falsehood, (and) consumers of the unlawful. If they come to you, you can either judge between them or disregard them. If you disregard them, they shall not harm you in any way. But if you (decide to) judge, judge between them with justice. Indeed, Allah loves the just.

43. And how should they make you their judge when they (already) have the Torah with them, which contains Allah’s judgement? Yet they turn their backs after that. And they are not believers.

47. Let the People of the Injil (the Gospel) judge according to what Allah has revealed in it. Those who do not judge according to what Allah has revealed, it is they who are disobedient.

50. Is it the law of pagan ignorance that they are seeking (to be judged by)? And who is better than Allah in judgement for people of firm faith?

51. O believers! Do not consider the (hostile) Jews and Christians as (your) guardians (or reliable allies). They are guardians (and supporters) of each other. Anyone of you who trusts them as an ally will (also) become one of them. Indeed, Allah does not guide the wrongdoing people.

52. You see those with sickness in their hearts rushing towards them, saying: ‘We fear lest fortune may turn against us.’ But perhaps Allah will grant victory or some (other) command (as a sign of success) from Him. Then, they shall be remorseful for what they kept secret in their hearts.

53. And the believers will say: ‘Are these the ones who swore by Allah their solemn oaths that they were with you?’ All their deeds have gone void, and they have become losers.

55. Your only guardians are Allah, His Messenger (blessings and peace be upon him), and the believers who establish the prayer and give the alms due while bowing down (to Allah).

56. Whoever takes as his guardians Allah, His Messenger (blessings and peace be upon him), and the believers; (these are) Allah’s allies, who will surely be victorious.

57. O believers! Do not take those who ridicule your religion and make fun of it from among those given the Book before you and the disbelievers as (your) trustful allies. And be conscious of Allah if you are (true) believers.
