And try orphans (as regards their intelligence) until they reach the age of marriage; if then you find sound judgement in them, release their property to them, but consume it not wastefully and hastily fearing that they should grow up, and whoever (amongst guardians) is rich, he should take no wages, but if he is poor, let him have for himself what is just and reasonable (according to his labour). And when you release their property to them, take witness in their presence; and Allâh is All-Sufficient in taking account. 7. There is a share for men and a share for women from what is left by parents and those nearest related, whether the property be small or large - a legal share. 8. And when the relatives and the orphans and Al-Masakîn (the poor) are present at the time of division, give them out of the property, and speak to them words of kindness and justice. 9. And let those (executors and guardians) have the same fear in their minds as they would have for their own, if they had left weak offspring behind. So let them fear Allâh and speak right words. 10. Verily, those who unjustly eat up the property of orphans, they eat up only fire into their bellies, and they will be burnt in the blazing Fire! [1] (V.4:5) Narrated Al-Mughirah bin Shu'bah رضى الله عنه :The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "Allâh has forbidden for you: (1) To be undutiful to your mothers, (2) to bury your daughters alive, (3) not to pay the rights of the others (e.g. Zakat, charity) and (4) to beg of men (i.e. begging). And Allâh has hated for you: (1) Sinful and useless talk like backbiting or that you talk too much about others, (2) to ask too many questions, (in disputed religious matters) and (3) to waste the wealth (by extravagance with lack of wisdom and thinking). (Sahih Al- Bukhari, Vol. 3, Hadîth No. 591). سورة النساء ٤ الجزء ٤ 108 Part 4 Surah 4.

Allâh commands you as regards your children's (inheritance): to the male, a portion equal to that of two females; if (there are) only daughters, two or more, their share is two-thirds of the inheritance; if only one, her share is a half. For parents, a sixth share of inheritance to each if the deceased left children; if no children, and the parents are the (only) heirs, the mother has a third; if the deceased left brothers (or sisters), the mother has a sixth. (The distribution in all cases is) after the payment of legacies he may have bequeathed or debts. You know not which of them, whether your parents or your children, are nearest to you in benefit; (these fixed shares) are ordained by Allâh. And Allâh is Ever All-Knower, All-Wise. 12. In that which your wives leave, your share is a half if they have no child; but if they leave a child, you get a fourth of that which they leave after payment of legacies that they may have bequeathed or debts. In that which you leave, their (your wives) share is a fourth if you leave no child; but if you leave a child, they get an eighth of that which you leave after payment of legacies that you may have bequeathed or debts. If the man or woman whose inheritance is in question has left neither ascendants nor descendants, but has left a brother or a sister, each one of the two gets a sixth; but if more than two, they share in a third, after payment of lagacies he (or she) may have bequeathed or debts, so that no loss is caused (to anyone). This is a Commandment from Allâh; and Allâh is Ever All-Knowing, Most-Forbearing. 13. These are the limits (set by) Allâh (or ordainments as regards laws of inheritance), and whosoever obeys Allâh and His Messenger (Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) will be admitted to Gardens under which rivers flow (in Paradise), to abide therein, and that will be the great success. سورة النساء ٤ الجزء ٤ 109 Part 4 Sûrah 4. An-Nisa' 14. And whosoever disobeys Allâh and ,(صلى الله عليه وسلم His Messenger (Muhammad and transgresses His limits, He will cast him into the Fire, to abide therein; and he shall have a disgraceful torment. 15. And those of your women who commit illegal sexual intercourse, take the evidence of four witnesses from amongst you against them; and if they testify, confine them (i.e. women) to houses until death comes to them or Allâh ordains for them some (other) way.[1] 16. And the two persons (man and woman) among you who commit illegal sexual intercourse, hurt them both. 2 And if they repent (promise Allâh that they will never repeat, i.e. commit illegal sexual intercourse and other similar sins) and do righteous good deeds, leave them alone. Surely, Allâh is Ever All-Forgiving (the One Who forgives and accepts repentance), (and He is) Most Merciful. 17. Allâh accepts only the repentance of those who do evil in ignorance and foolishness and repent soon afterwards; it is they whom Allâh will forgive and Allâh is Ever All-Knower, All-Wise. 18. And of no effect is the repentance of those who continue to do evil deeds until death faces one of them and he says: "Now I repent;" nor of those who die while they are disbelievers. For them We have prepared a painful torment. 19. O you who believe! You are forbidden to inherit women against their will; and you should not treat them with harshness, that you may take away part of وَمَنْ يَعْصِ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ وَيَتَّعَدَّ حُدُودَهُ يُدْخِلْهُ نَارًا خَلِدًا فِيهَا وَلَهُ. عَذَابٌ مُّهِيرٌ وَالَّتِى يَأْتِينَ الْفَحِشَةَ مِن نِسَابِكُمْ فَأَسْتَشْهِدُ واْ عَلَيْهِنَّ أَرْبَعَةً مِّنكُمَّ فَإِن شَهِدُواْ فَأَمْسِكُوهُنَّ فِ الْبُيُوتِ حَتَّى يَتَوَقَّهُنَّ الْمَوْتُ أَوْ يَجْعَلَ اللهُ لَهُنَّ سَبِيلًا 10 وَالَّذَانِ يَأْتِيَنِهَا مِنكُمْ فَاذُوهُمَّاً فَإِنْ تَابَا وَأَصْلَحَا فَأَعْرِضُواْ عَنْهُمَاُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ تَوَّابًّارَّحِيمًا إِنَّمَا التَّوْبَةُ عَلَى اَللَّهِ لِلَّذِينَ يَعْمَلُونَ الشُّوَءَ بِجَهَلَةٍ ثُمَّ يَتُوبُونَ مِن قَرِيبٍ فَأُوْلَئِكَ يَتُوبُ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ عَلِيمًا حَكِيمًا وَلَيْسَتِ التَّوْبَةُ لِلَّذِينَ يَعْمَلُونَ السَّيِّئَاتِ حَقَّ إِذَا حَضَرَ أَحَدَهُمُ الْمَوْثُ قَالَ إِنِّى تُبْتُ اَلْقَنَ وَلَا الَّذِينَ يَمُوتُونَ وَهُمْ كُفَّارُ أُوْلَّبِكَ أَعْتَدْنَالَهُمْ عَذَابًا أَلِيمًا يَأَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ لَا يَحِلُّ لَكُمْ أَنْ تَرِثُواْ النِّسَاءَ كَرَّمًا وَلَا تَعْضُلُوهُنَّ لِتَذْهَبُواْ بِبَعْضِ مَآءَاتَيْتُمُوهُنَّ إِلَّا أَن يَأْتِينَ بِفَاحِشَةٍ مُبَيِّنَةِ [1] (V.4:15) The provision of this Verse has been abrogated by the Verse of Sûrat An-Nûr (V.24:2), ordaining lashing for the unmarried and stoning to death for the married, when four witnesses testify to the crime.

If you dislike them, it may be that you dislike a thing and Allâh brings through it a great deal of good. 20. But if you intend to replace a wife by another and you have given one of them a Qintâr (of gold i.e. a great amount as Mahr) take not the least bit of it back; would you take it wrongfully without a right and (with) a manifest sin? 21. And how could you take it (back) while you have gone in unto each other, and they have taken from you a firm and strong covenant? 22. And marry not women whom your fathers married, except what has already passed; indeed it was shameful and most hateful, and an evil way. 23. Forbidden to you (for marriage) are: your mothers, your daughters, your sisters, your father's sisters, your mother's sisters, your brother's daughters, your sister's daughters, your foster mothers who gave you suck, your foster milk suckling sisters, your wives' mothers, your step-daughters under your guardianship, born of your wives to whom you have gone in - but there is no sin on you if you have not gone in them (to marry their daughters), - the wives of your sons who (spring) from your own loins, and two sisters in wedlock at the same time, except for what has already passed; verily, Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. (V.4:19) Mahr: Bridal-money given by the husband to his wife at the time of marriage. [1] سورة النساء ٤ الجزء ٥ 111 Part 5 Surah 4.

Also (forbidden are) women already married, except those (slaves) whom your right hands possess. Thus has Allâh ordained for you. All others are lawful, provided you seek (them in marriage) with Mahr (bridal- money given by the husband to his wife at the time of marriage) from your property, desiring chastity, not committing illegal sexual intercourse, so with those of whom you have enjoyed sexual relations, give them their Mahr as prescribed; but if after a Mahr is prescribed, you agree mutually (to give more), there is no sin on you. Surely, Allâh is Ever All-Knowing, All-Wise. 25. And whoever of you have not the means wherewith to wed free, believing women, they may wed believing girls from among those (slaves) whom your right hands possess, and Allâh has full knowledge about your Faith; you are one from another. Wed them with the permission of their own folk (guardians, Auliyâ' or masters) and give them their Mahr according to what is reasonable; they (the above said captive and slave-girls) should be chaste, not committing illegal sex, nor taking boy-friends. And after they have been taken in wedlock, if they commit illegal sexual intercourse, their punishment is half that for free (unmarried) women. 1 This is for him among you who is afraid of being harmed in his religion or in his body; but it is better for you that you practise self-restraint, and Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. 26. Allâh wishes to make clear (what is lawful and what is unlawful) to you, and to show you the ways of those before you, and accept your repentance, and Allâh is All-Knower, All-Wise. 27. Allâh wishes to accept your repentance, but those who follow their lusts, [1] (V.4:25) Female or male slaves (married or unmarried); if they commit illegal sexual intercourse, their punishment is fifty (50) lashes (half of that which is for free unmarried women); neither stoning to death nor exile. سورة النساء ٤ الجزء ٥ 112 Part 5 Surah 4. An-Nisa' wish that you (believers) should deviate tremendously away (from the Right Path). 28. Allâh wishes to lighten (the burden) for you; and man was created weak (cannot be patient to leave sexual intercourse with woman). 29. O you who believe! Eat not up your property among yourselves unjustly except it be a trade amongst you, by mutual consent. And do not kill yourselves (nor kill one another). Surely, Allâh is Most Merciful to you. 30. And whoever commits that through aggression and injustice, We shall cast him into the Fire, and that is easy for Allâh. 31. If you avoid the great sins12 which you are forbidden to do, We shall expiate from you your (small) sins, and admit you to a Noble Entrance (i.e. Paradise). 32. And wish not for the things in which Allâh has made some of you to excel others. For men there is reward for what they have الَّذِينَ يَتَّبِعُونَ الشَّهَوَاتِ أَنْ تِيلُواْ مَيْلًا عَظِيمًا يُرِيدُ اللّهُ أَنْ يُخَفِّفَ عَنْكُمْ وَخُلِقَ الْإِنسَنُ ضَعِيفًا @ يَأَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ لَا تَأْكُلُواْ أَمْوَلَكُمْ بَيْنَكُمْ بِالْبَطِلِ إِلَّا أَن تَكُونَ نِحَرَةً عَنْ تَرَاضِ مِنْكُمْ وَلَا تَقْتُلُواْأَنفُسَكُمْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ بِكُمْرَحِيمًا وَمَن يَفْعَلْ ذَلِكَ عُدْوَانًا وَظُلْمًا فَسَوْفَ نُصْلِيهِ نَارًا وَكَانَ ذَلِكَ عَلَى اللَّهِ يَسِيرًا إِن تَجْتَنِبُواْ كَبَابِرَ مَا نُنْهَوْنَ عَنْهُ نُكَفِّرْ عَنكُمْ سَيِّئَاتِكُمْ وَنُدْخِلْكُمْ مُّدْخَلَا كَرِيمًا وَلَا تَنَمَنَّوْاْمَافَضَّلَ اللهُبِهِ،بَعْضَكُمْ عَلَى بَعْضِ لِلْرِجَالِ نَصِيبٌ مِّمَا اكْتَسَبُواْ [1] (V.4:29) What is said about committing suicide. Narrated Thabit bin Ad-Dahhak رضى الله عنه :The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "Whoever intentionally swears falsely by a religion other than Islam, then he is what he had said, (e.g. if he says, 'If such thing is not true then I am a Jew,' he is really a Jew if he is a liar). And whoever commits suicide with a piece of iron, will be punished with the same piece of iron in the Hell-fire." Narrated Jundub: The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "A man was inflicted with wounds and he commited suicide, and so Allah said: My slave has caused death on himself hurriedly, so I forbid Paradise for him." (Sahih Al-Bukhari, Vol. 2, Hadîth No. 445). Narrated Abu Hurairah رضى الله عنه :The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "He who commits suicide by throttling shall keep on throttling himself in the Hell-fire, and he who commits suicide by stabbing himself shall keep on stabbing himself in the Hell-fire." (Sahih Al-Bukhari, Vol.2, Hadîth No.446). [2] (V.4:31) Narrated Abu Hurairah رضى الله عنه :The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said: "Avoid the seven great destructive sins." They (the people) asked, "O Allah's Messenger! What are they?" He said, "(1) To join partners in worship with Allâh, (2) to practise sorcery; (3) to kill a person which Allâh has forbidden except for a just cause (according to Islamic law); (4) to eat up Riba* (usury); (5) to eat up the property of an orphan; (6) to show one's back to the enemy and fleeing from the battlefield at the time of fighting and (7) to accuse chaste women who never even think of anything touching their chastity and are good believers." (Sahih Al-Bukhari, Vol. 8, Hadîth No. 840). * (see the Glossary Appendix I) سورة النساء ٤ الجزء ٥ 113 Part 5 Sûrah 4. An-Nisa' earned, (and likewise) for women there is reward for what they have earned, and ask Allâh of His Bounty. Surely, Allâh is Ever All-Knower of everything. 33. And to everyone, We have appointed heirs of that (property) left by parents and relatives. To those also with whom you have made a pledge (brotherhood), give them their due portion (by Wasiyyah - will ) [1]. Truly, Allâh is Ever a Witness over all things. 34. Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because Allâh has made one of them to excel the other, and because they spend (to support them) from their means. Therefore the righteous women are devoutly obedient (to Allâh and to their husbands), and guard in the husband's absence what Allâh orders them to guard (e.g. their chastity, their husband's property). As to those women on whose part you see ill-conduct, admonish them (first), (next), refuse to share their beds, (and last) beat them (lightly, if it is useful); but if they return to obedience, seek not against them means (of annoyance). Surely, Allâh is Ever Most High, Most Great. 35. If you fear a breach between them twain (the man and his wife), appoint (two) arbitrators, one from his family and the other from her's; if they both wish for peace, Allâh will cause their reconciliation. Indeed Allâh is Ever All-Knower, Well-Acquainted with all things. 36. Worship Allâh and join none with Him (in worship); and do good to parents, kinsfolk, orphans, Al-Masakîn (the poor), the neighbour who is near of kin, the neighbour who is a stranger, the companion by your side, the wayfarer (you meet), and those (slaves) whom your right hands possess. وَلِلنِّسَآءِ نَصِيبٌ ◌ِمَا اكْتَسَبْنَّ وَسْئَلُواْ اللَّهَ مِن فَضْلِةِ : إِنَّاللّهَ كَانَ بِكُلِّ شَىْءٍ عَلِيمًا وَلِكُلٍ جَعَلْنَا مَوَلِى مِمَّا تَرَكَ الْوَلِدَانِ وَالْأَقْرَبُونَ، وَالَّذِينَ عَقَدَتْ أَيْمَنُكُمْ فَشَاتُوهُمْ نَصِيبَهُمْ إِنَّاللَّهَ كَانَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَىْءٍ شَهِيدًا الرِّجَالُ قَوَّمُونَ عَلَى النِّسَاءِبِمَا فَضَلَ اَللَّهُ بَعْضَهُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ وَبِمَا أَنفَقُواْ مِنْ أَمْوَلِهِمْ فَالضَلِحَتُ قَنِئَتُّ حَفِظَتٌ لِلْغَيْبِ بِمَا حَفِظَ اَللَّهُ وَالَِّي تَخَافُونَ نُشُوزَهُنَ فَعِظُوهُنَ وَأَهْجُرُ وهُنَّ فِ الْمَضَاجِعِ وَأَضْرِبُوهُنٍّ فَإِنْ أَطَعْنَكُمْ فَلَا نَبْغُواْ عَلَيْهِنَّ سَبِيلاً إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ عَلِيًّا كَبِيرًا ٣٤ وَ إِنْ خِفْتُمْ شِقَاقَ بَيْنِهِمَا فَأَبْعَثُواْ حَكَمَا مِنْ أَهْلِهِ، وَحَكَمًا مِنْ أَهْلِهَا إِن يُرِيدَآ إِصْلَاحًا يُوَفِّقِ اللّهُبَيْنَهُمَّأُ إِنَّاللَّهَ كَانَ عَلِيمًا خَبِيرًا ٣٥ وَأَعْبُدُ واْ اللَّهَ وَلَا تُشْرِكُواْ بِهِ، شَيْئاً وَبِالْوَلِدَيْنِ إِحْسَنًا وَ بِذِى الْقُرْبَى وَالْيَتَمَى وَاُلْمَسَكِينِ وَالْجَارِ ذِى الْقُرْبَى وَالْجَارِ اُلْجُنُبِ وَالضَاحِبِ بِالْجَنَّبِ وَأَبْنِ السَّبِيلِ وَمَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَنُكُمْ إِنَّاللَّهَ (V.4:33) See for details Hadith No. 489, Vol.3, Sahih Al-Bukhari.

Those who are miserly and enjoin miserliness on other men and hide what Allâh has bestowed upon them of His Bounties. And We have prepared for the disbelievers a disgraceful torment.[1] 38. And (also) those who spend of their substance to be seen of men, and believe not in Allâh and the Last Day [they are the friends of Shaitân (Satan)], and whoever takes Shaitân (Satan) as an intimate; then what a dreadful intimate he has! 39. And what loss have they if they had believed in Allâh and in the Last Day, and they spend out of what Allâh has given them for sustenance? And Allâh is Ever All-Knower of them. 40. Surely! Allâh wrongs not even of the weight of an atom (or a small ant),12 but if - لَا يُحِبُّ مَن كَانَ مُخْتَالًا فَخُورًا الَّذِينَ يَبْخَلُونَ وَيَأْمُرُونَ النَّاسَ بِالْبُخْلِ وَيَكْتُونَ مَآءَاتَنهُمُ اللَّهُ مِن فَضْلِهِ، وَأَعْتَدْنَا لِلْكَفِرِينَ عَذَابًا مُهِينًا وَالَّذِينَ يُنفِقُونَ أَمْوَلَهُمْ رِينَآءَ النَّاسِ وَلَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِاللَّهِ وَلَا يِالْيَوْمِ الْآَخِرُّ وَ مَن يَكُنِ الشَّيْطَانُ لَهُ قَرِينًا فَسَآءَ قَرِينًا ٣٨ وَمَاذَا عَلَيْهِمْ لَوْءَا مَنُواْ بِلّهِ وَالْيَّوْمِ الْآَخِ وَأَنْفَقُواْ مِنَارَزَقَهُمُ اللَّهَ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ بِهِمْ عَلِيمًا إِنَّ اللَّهُ لَا يَظْلِمُ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ وَ إِن تَكُ حَسَنَّةً [1] (V.4:37) Narrated Abu Hurairah رضى الله عنه :The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "Everyday two angels come down from heaven and one of them says, 'O Allah! Compensate every person who spends in Your Cause,' and the other (angel) says, 'O Allah! Destroy every miser."" (Sahih Al-Bukhari, Vol.2, Hadîth No.522). [2] (V. 4:40) a) Narrated Abu Sa'îd Al-Khudrî us al ò, : During the lifetime of the Prophet صلی الله , Ale some people said, "O Allah's Messenger! Shall we see our Lord on the Day of Resurrection?" The Prophet , de al 1. said: "Yes; do you have any difficulty in seeing the sun at midday when it is bright and there is no cloud in the sky?" They replied, "No." He said, "Do you have any difficulty in seeing the moon on a fullmoon night when it is bright and there is no cloud in the sky?" They replied, "No." The Prophet , ule a 1 1. said, "(Similarly) you will have no difficulty in seeing Allah ( Ja , ;e) on the Day of Resurrection, as you have no difficulty in seeing either of them." On the Day of Resurrection, a call-maker will announce, "Let every nation follow that which they used to worship." Then none of those who used to worship anything other than Allah like idols and other deities, but will fall in Hell (Fire), till there will remain none but those who used to worship Allâh, both those who were obedient (i.e. good) and those who were disobedient (i.e. bad) and the remaining party of the people of the Scripture. Then the Jews will be called upon and it will be said to them, "Who did you use to worship?" They will say, "We used to worship 'Uzair (Ezra), the son of Allâh." It will be said to them, "You are liars, for Allâh has never taken anyone as a wife or a son. What do you want now?" They will say, "O our Lord! We are thirsty, so give us something to drink." They will be directed and addressed thus, "Will you drink" whereupon they will be gathered unto Hell (Fire) which will look like a mirage whose different sides will be destroying each other. Then they will fall into the Fire. Afterwards the Christians will be called upon and it will be said to them, "Who did you use to worship?" They will say, "We used to worship 'Isa (Jesus), the son of Allah." It will be said to them, "You are liars, for Allâh has never taken anyone as a wife or a son." Then it will be said to them, "What do سورة النساء ٤ الجزء ٥ 115 Part 5 Sûrah 4.

How (will it be) then, when We bring from each nation a witness and We bring you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) as a witness against these people? 42. On that day those who disbelieved and disobeyed the Messenger (Muhammad & 1. , 4) will wish that they were buried in the earth, but they will never be able to hide a single fact from Allâh.[1] 43. O you who believe! Approach not As-Salât (the prayer) when you are in a drunken state until you know (the meaning) of what you utter, nor when you are in a state of Janâba, (i.e. in a state of sexual impurity and have not yet taken a bath) except when travelling on the road (without enough water, or just passing through a mosque), till you wash your whole body. And if you are ill, or on a journey, or one of you comes after answering the call of nature, or you have been in contact with women (by sexual relations) and you find no water, perform Tayammum with clean earth and rub therewith your faces and hands (Tayammum) 2. Truly, Allâh is Ever Oft-Pardoning, Oft-Forgiving. 44. Have you not seen those who were given a portion of the Book (the Jews), you want now?" They will say what the former people have said (and will be thrown in the Hell-fire like the Jews). Then, when there remain (in the gathering) none but those who used to worship Allah [Alone; the real Lord of the 'Alamîn (mankind, jinn and all that exists)], whether they were obedient or disobedient. Then Allah, [the Lord of the 'Âlamîn (mankind, jinn and all that exists)], will come to them in a shape nearest to the picture they had in their minds about Him. It will be said, "What are you waiting for? Every nation has followed what it used to worship." They will reply, "We left the people in the world when we were in great need of them and we did not take them as friends. Now we are waiting for our Lord Whom we used to worship." Allah will say, "I am your Lord." They will say twice or thrice, "We do not worship anything besides Allah." (Sahih Al-Bukhari, Vol. 6, Hadîth No. 105). See the footnote of (V. 68:42) (V.4:42) See footnote of (V. 3:85). [2] (V.4:43) Strike your hands on the earth and then pass the palm of each on the back of the other and then blow off the dust from them and then pass (rub) them on your face, this is called Tayammum. سورة النساء ٤ الجزء ٥ 116 Part 5 Sûrah 4.

And if only they had said: "We hear and obey", and "Do make us understand," it would have been better for them, and more proper; but Allâh has cursed them for their disbelief, so they believe not except a few. 47.

Nay, but Allâh sanctifies whom He wills, and they will not be dealt with injustice even equal to the extent of a scalish thread in the long slit of a date-stone. 50. Look, how they invent a lie against Allâh, and enough is that as a manifest sin. 51. Have you not seen those who were given a portion of the Scripture? They believe in Jibt and Taghût 21 and say to the disbelievers that they are better guided as regards the way than the believers (Muslims). 52. They are those whom Allâh has cursed, and he whom Allâh curses, you will not find for him (any) helper, 53. Or have they a share in the dominion? Then in that case they would not give mankind even a speck on the back of a date- stone. 54. Or do they envy men (Muhammad and his followers) for what صلى الله عليه وسلم Allâh has given them of His Bounty? Then We had already given the family of Ibrahim (Abraham) the Book and Al-Hikmah (As-Sunnah - Divine Revelation to those Prophets not written in the form of a book), and conferred upon them a great kingdom. 55.

And if We had ordered them (saying), "Kill yourselves (i.e. the innnocent ones kill the guilty ones) or leave your homes," very few of them would have done it; but if they had done what they were told, it would have been better for them, and would have strengthened their (Faith); 67. And indeed We should then have bestowed upon them a great reward from Ourselves. 68. And indeed We should have guided them to the Straight Way. 69. And whoso obey Allâh and the Messenger (Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم), then they will be in the company of those on whom Allâh has bestowed His Grace, of the Prophets, the Siddiqun (those followers of the Prophets who were first and foremost to believe in them, like Abu Bakr As-Siddiq .the martyrs, and the righteous ,(رضى الله عنه And how excellent these companions are! 70.

There is certainly among you he who would linger behind (from fighting in Allâh's Cause). If a misfortune befalls you, he says, "Indeed Allâh has favoured me in that I was not present among them." 73. But if a bounty (victory and booty) comes to you from Allâh, he would surely say - as if there had never been ties of affection between you and him - "Oh!

They say: "Our Lord! Why have you ordained for us fighting? Would that you had granted us respite for a short period?" Say: "Short is the enjoyment of this world.

And We have sent you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) as a Messenger to mankind, and Allâh is Sufficient as a Witness.[1] 80. He who obeys the Messenger (Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم), has indeed obeyed Allâh, but he who turns away, then we صلى الله عليه have not sent you (O Muhammad ,) as a watcher over them.[2] 81. They say: "We are obedient," but صلى اللّه عليه when they leave you (Muhammad ,), a section of them spend all night in planning other than what you say. But Allâh records their nightly (plots). So turn aside from them (do not punish them), and put your trust in Allâh. And Allâh is Ever All-Sufficient as a Disposer of affairs. 82. Do they not then consider the Qur'an carefully? Had it been from other than Allâh, they would surely have found therein many a contradiction. 83.

Whosoever intercedes for a good cause will have the reward thereof, and whosoever intercedes for an evil cause will have a share in its burden. And Allâh is Ever All-Able to do (and also an All-Witness to) everything. 86. When you are greeted with a greeting, greet in return with what is better than it, or (at least) return it equally. Certainly, Allâh is Ever a Careful Account Taker of all things.111 87. Allâh! Lâ ilâha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He). Surely, He will gather you together on the Day of Resurrection about which there is no doubt. And who is truer in statement than Allâh? [1] (V.4:86) How the Salâm (greeting) began. Narrated Abu Hurairah رضى الله عنه :The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "Allah created Adam in His Image,* sixty cubits (about 30 metres) in height. When He created him, He said (to him), "Go and greet that group of angels sitting there, and listen what they will say in reply to you, for that will be your greeting and the greeting of your offspring." Adam (went and) said, "As-Salamu 'Alaikum (peace be upon you)." They replied, "As-Salamu 'Alaikum wa Rahmatullah (Peace and Allâh's Mercy be on you)." So they increased 'wa Rahmatullah.' " The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم added, "So, whoever will enter Paradise, will be of the shape and picture of Adam. Since then the creation of Adam's (offspring) (i.e. stature of human beings) is being diminished continuously up to the present time." (Sahih Al-Bukhari, Vol. 8, Hadîth No. 246). *"His Image" means that Adam has been bestowed with life, knowledge, power of hearing, seeing, understanding, but the features of Adam are different from those of Allâh, only the names are the same, e.g., Allâh has life and knowledge and power of understanding, and Adam also has them, but there is no comparison between the Creator and the created thing. As Allah says in the Qur'an: "There is nothing like Him, and He is the All-Hearer, the All-Seer." (V.42:11), Allah does not eat or sleep, while Adam used to eat and sleep [for details See Fath Al-Bâri, Vol. 6, Page 108,9 and Vol.13, Page 238,9]. سورة النساء ٤ الجزء ٥ 124 Part 5 Sûrah 4.

Then what is the matter with you that you are divided into two parties about the hypocrites? Allâh has cast them back (to disbelief) because of what they have earned. Do you want to guide him whom Allâh has made to go astray? And he whom Allâh has made to go astray, you will never find for him any way (of guidance). 89. They wish that you reject Faith, as they have rejected (Faith), and thus that you all become equal (like one another). So take not Auliya' (protectors or friends) from them, till they emigrate in the Way of Allâh (to Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم). But if they turn back (from İslâm), take (hold of) them and kill them wherever you find them, and take neither Auliyâ' (protectors or friends) nor helpers from them. 90. Except those who join a group, between you and whom there is a treaty (of peace), or those who approach you with their breasts restraining from fighting you as well as fighting their own people. Had Allâh willed, indeed He would have given them power over you, and they would have fought you. So if they withdraw from you, and fight not against you, and offer you peace, then Allâh has opened no way for you against them. 91. You will find others that wish to have security from you and security from their people. Every time they are sent back to temptation, they yield thereto. If they withdraw not from you, nor offer you peace, nor restrain their hands, take (hold of) them and kill them wherever you find them. In their case, We have provided you with a clear warrant against them. 92. It is not for a believer to kill a believer except (that it be) by mistake; and whosoever kills a believer by mistake, (it is ordained that) he must set free a believing slave and a compensation (blood-money, i.e Diya) be given to the deceased's family unless they سورة النساء ٤ الجزء ٥ Part 5 125 Sûrah 4.

If the deceased belonged to a people at war with you and he was a believer, the freeing of a believing slave (is prescribed); and if he belonged to a people with whom you have a treaty of mutual alliance, compensation (blood-money - Diya) must be paid to his family, and a believing slave must be freed. And whoso finds this (the penance of freeing a slave) beyond his means, he must fast for two consecutive months in order to seek repentance from Allâh. And Allâh is Ever All-Knowing, All-Wise. 93. And whoever kills a , believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell to abide therein; and the Wrath and the Curse of Allâh are upon him, and a great punishment is prepared for him.[1] 94. O you who believe! When you go (to fight) in the Cause of Allâh, verify (the truth), and say not to anyone who greets you (by embracing Islâm): "You are not a believer"; seeking the perishable goods of the worldly life. There are much more profits and booties with Allâh. Even as he is now, so were you yourselves before till Allâh conferred on you His Favours (i.e. guided you to Islâm), therefore, be cautious in discrimination. Allâh is Ever Well-Aware of what you do. 95. Not equal are those of the believers who sit (at home), except those who are disabled (by injury or are blind or lame), and those who strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allâh with their wealth and their lives. Allâh has preferred in grades those who strive hard and fight with their wealth and their lives above those who sit (at home). Unto each, Allâh has promised good (Paradise), but Allâh has preferred those who strive hard and [1] (V.4:93): A) Narrated Ibn 'Umar رضى الله عنهما :Allah's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "A faithful believer remains at liberty regarding his religion unless he kills somebody unlawfully."

An-Nisa' اُلْمُجَهِدِينَ عَلَى الْقَعِدِينَ أَجْرًا عَظِيمًا 90 دَرَجَاتٍ مِنْهُ وَمَغْفِرَةً وَرَحْمَةً وَكَانَ اللّهُ غَفُورًا رَّحِيمًا لِ! إِنَّالَّذِينَ تَوَقَُّهُمُ الْمَلَتِكَةُّ ظَالِىِّ أَنْفُسِهِمْ قَالُواْ فِيمَ كُمْ قَالُواكُنَا مُسْتَضْعَفِينَ فِى الْأَرْضَِّ قَالُواْ أَلَّ تَكُنْ أَرْضُ اَللَّهِ وَسِعَةً فَتُهَاجِرُواْ فِيهَا فَأُوْلَئِكَ ٩٧ مَأْوَهُمْ جَهَنَّمٌ وَسَآءَتْ مَصِيًّا إِلَّا الْمُسْتَضْعَفِينَ مِنَ الْرِجَالِ وَالنِّسَاءِ وَالْوِلْدَنِ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ حِيلَةٌ وَلَا يَهْتَدُونَ سَبِيلًا ٩٨ فَأُوْلَكَ عَسَى اللَّهُ أَن يَعْفُوَ عَنْهُمْ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ عَفُوًّا غَفُورًا ﴿ وَمَن يُّهَاجِرِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ يَجِدْ فِ الْأَرْضِ مُرَغَمَا كَثِرًا وَسَعَةٌ وَمَن يَخْرُجْ مِنْ بَيْتِهِ، مُهَاجِرًا إِلَى اللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ، ثُمَّيُدْرِكُهُ الَّوْتُ فَقَدْ وَقَعَ أَجْرُهُ، عَلَى اللَّهِ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ غَفُورًا رَّحِيمًا وَإِذَا ضَرَيْثُمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ فَلَيْسَ عَلَيْكُمْ جُنَامُ أَن نَقْصُرُواْ مِنَ الصَّلَوْةِإِنْ خِفْتُمْ أَنْ يَغْنِنَّكُمُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوَّأَ إِنَّ الْكَفِرِينَ كَانُوْ لَكُمْ عَدُوَُّبِينًا وَإِذَا كُنْتَ فِيهِمْ فَأَقَمْتَ لَهُمُ الصَّلَوةَ فَلْنَهُمْ fight, above those who sit (at home) by a huge reward. 96. Degrees of (higher) grades from Him, and Forgiveness and Mercy. And Allâh is Ever Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. 97. Verily! As for those whom the angels take (in death) while they are wronging themselves (as they stayed among the disbelievers even though emigration was obligatory for them), they (angels) say (to them): "In what (condition) were you?" They reply: "We were weak and oppressed on the earth." They (angels) say: "Was not the earth of Allâh spacious enough for you to emigrate therein?" Such men will find their abode in Hell - What an evil destination![1] 98. Except the weak ones among men, women and children who cannot devise a plan, nor are they able to direct their way. 99. These are they whom Allah is likely to forgive them, and Allâh is Ever Oft- Pardoning, Oft-Forgiving. 100. He who emigrates (from his home) in the Cause of Allah, will find on earth many dwelling places and plenty to live by. And whosoever leaves his home as an emigrant unto Allâh and His Messenger, and death overtakes him, his reward is then surely incumbent upon Allâh. And Allâh is Ever Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. 101. And when you (Muslims) travel in the land, there is no sin on you if you shorten As-Salât (the prayer) if you fear that the disbelievers may put you in trial (attack you etc.), verily, the disbelievers are ever unto you open enemies. 102. When you (O Messenger Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) are among them, [1] (V.4:97) See the footnote of the (V.3:149).
