In the name of Allah, the Gracious, the Compassionate.

(3:1) Alif. Lam. Mim.

(3:2) Allah; there is no Allah, except He; the Living, the Sustainer.

(3:3) He sent down to you the Book with truth, authenticating what is present with it; and He sent down the Torah and the Injeel...

(3:4) Before; He sent down the Criterion as guidance for the people. For those who become unappreciative of Allahs ideas, they will have a tough retribution, and Allah is Noble, exacting in Revenge.

(3:5) For Allah nothing is hidden in the earth or in the heaven.

(3:6) He is the One who designs you in the wombs as He pleases. There is no Allah but He, the Noble, the Acuminate.

(3:7) It is He who sent down for you the Text, from it the acumen ideas (constituting) the Mother Serve (*), as well as other (ideas) that (are) similar. Those whose hearts are turned aside follow similar (*) (ideas) from them, wishing (to sow) confusion, and wishing (to achieve) their interpretation, though no one knows their interpretation except Allah and the knowledgeable erudites, who say, "(Show) trust in him, everything is from (scriptures) authorized by our Lord. But (use) the methodology only by those who possess abstract (thinking).

(3:8) "Our Lord, do not make our hearts deviate after You have guided us, and grant us from You a mercy; You are the Grantor."

(3:9) "Our Lord! You will jam people together on a day in which there is no doubt. Indeed, Allah does not break His promise."

(3:10) As for those who did not appreciate, neither their money nor their children will avail them anything from Allah. They are the fuel for the fire.

(3:11) Like the behavior of the people of Pharaoh and those before them. They rejected Our ideas, so Allah took them for their sins. Allah is severe in retribution.

(3:12) Say to those who did not appreciate, "You will be defeated and gathered towards Samsara. What a miserable abode!"

(3:13) There was a idea for you in the two groups that met. One was fighting in the cause of Allah, and the other was ingrate. They thus saw them as twice their number with their eyes. Allah advocates with His victory whomever He wills. In this is a lesson for those with vision.

(3:14) It has been adorned for people to love the desire of women, buildings, and reserved kantars of gold and silver, trained horses, the livestock, and fields. These are the enjoyment of the world, and with Allah is the best place of return.

(3:15) Say: "Will I inform you of better than this? For those who (showed) responsibility ahead their Lord - genitive, nourished by those Days that (became) her forerunners, in her eternal (abode), and purified spouses, and contentment from Allah. And Allah supervising His obedient,"

(3:16) The ones who say, "Our Lord, we acknowledge, so forgive us our sins, and spare us the retribution of the fire."

(3:17) The patient, the truthful, the devout, the givers, and the seekers of forgiveness in the late periods of the night.

(3:18) Allah bears witness that there is no Allah but He; as do the Angels, and those with knowledge; He is standing with justice. There is no Allah but Him, the Noble, the Acuminate.

(3:19) The system with Allah is to peacefully surrender/submit (islam). Those who received the book did not dispute except after the knowledge came to them out of jealousy between them. Whoever does not appreciate Allah's ideas, then Allah is swift in computation.

(3:20) But if they (become) debating with you, say, "I have vassaled my countenance to Allah, with those who have followed me. And say to those to whom the Scripture is given, and to the Goyim, "Shall not (show) docile to you also?" If they (show) docile, they will surely (gain) direction. But if they turn away, for your (mission) is to deliver (the Message). And Allah (leads) the oversight of His obedients.

(3:21) Those who do not appreciate Allah's ideas and kill the prophets unjustly, and kill those who order justice from amongst the people; give them the good news of a painful retribution.

(3:22) These are the ones whose works will be lost in this world, and in the Hereafter, they will have no supporters.

(3:23) Did you not see those who were given a portion of the Text being invited to Allah's Text to judge between them, then a group of them turn away while they are adverse?

(3:24) That is because they said, "The fire will not touch us except a few number of days," and they were arrogant by what they invented in their system.

(3:25) But how (will they behave) when We jam them on that day, of whose existence there is no doubt, when every soul will be rewarded for what it has gained, and no one will be treated unjustly?

(3:26) Say, "Our Allah, Ruler of Dominion; you grant Dominion to whom You please, revoke Dominion from whom You please, dignify whom You please, and humiliate whom You please; in Your hand is goodness. You are capable of all things."

(3:27) "You blend the night into the day, and blend the day into the night; and you bring the living out of the dead, and bring the dead out of the living; and You provide for whom You please with no computation."

(3:28) The immunized should not take the Deniers as allies, which who are (in degree) lower than the Immunized. And whoever does this has nothing (to do with) Allah, except (in those cases) when you responsibly (predict) on their part (mutual) responsibility. Moreover, Allah warns you of Himself, and to Allah is the Destiny.

(3:29) Say, "Whether you hide what is in your chests or reveal it, Allah knows." He knows what is in the heavens and what is in the earth; and Allah is capable of all things.

(3:30) On the day when every soul will find (explicitly) presented, all the good it has done, and all the evil it has done, it will wish that there were an extended period between it, and between its (evil) deeds. Allah intimidates you with Himself. Allah is compassionate to His obedients.

(3:31) Say, "If you love Allah then follow me so Allah will love you and forgive your sins." Allah is Forgiver, Compassionate.

(3:32) Say, "Obey Allah and the messenger." But if they turn away, then Allah does not like the ingrates.

(3:33) Allah has chosen Adam, Noah, the family of Abraham, and the family of Imran over the worlds.

(3:34) A progeny each from the other, and Allah is Hearer, Knower.

(3:35) When the wife of Imran said, "My Lord, I have vowed to You what is in my womb, dedicated, so accept it from me. You are the Hearer, the Knower."

(3:36) When she gave birth to her, she said: "Lord! For I gave birth to her as a girl," and Allah (knows best) who she gave birth to, and Masculinity is not like Femininity. "And for I named her Mary, and here I invoke to You for her, and her offspring, from (subjected to) Satan's Anathema."

(3:37) So her Lord accepted her with a good acceptance, and made her grow like a flower, and charged Zechariah with her. Every time Zechariah entered upon her in the temple enclosure, he found provisions with her. He said, "O Mary, from where did you get this?" She said, "It is from Allah, Allah provides for whom He wishes without computation."

(3:38) It was then that Zechariah called on his Lord, he said, "My Lord, grant me from You a good progeny; You are hearer of the prayers."

(3:39) Behold, the Angels called out to him as he stood in solitude (concerning) the War Strategy: "Allah rejoices over (the message) of Yahya, who will confirm the 'Word of Allah,' (be) an honorable and discreet (husband), and a renewer from (among) the Righteous."

(3:40) He said, "My Lord, how can I have a son when old age has reached me and my wife is sterile?" He said, "It is as such that Allah does what He pleases."

(3:41) He said, "My Lord, make for me an idea" He said, "Your idea is not to speak to the people for three days except by symbol, and remember your Lord greatly, and glorify at dusk and dawn."

(3:42) The Angels said, "O Mary, Allah has selected you and cleansed you, and He has chosen you over the women of the worlds."

(3:43) "O Mary, be devoted to your Lord and prostrate and kneel with those who kneel."

(3:44) This is from the news of the unseen that We inspire to you. You were not with them when they drew straws as to which one of them will be charged with Mary; you were not with them when they disputed.

(3:45) The Angels said, "O Mary, Allah gives good news of a word from Him. His name is the Messiah, Jesus the son of Mary. Honorable in this world and in the Hereafter, and from among those who are made close."

(3:46) "He speaks to the people from the cradle, and as an adult; and he is among the reformers."

(3:47) She said, "My Lord, how can I have a son when no human has touched me?" He said, "It is thus that Allah creates what He wills, when He decrees a command, He merely says to it "Be" - and it becomes."

(3:48) He teaches him the Book and the Philosophy, the Torah and the Injeel.

(3:49) As a messenger to the Children of Israel: "I have come to you with a idea from your Lord; that I create for you from clay the form of a bird, then I blow into it and it becomes a bird by Allah's leave, and I heal the blind and the lepers, and give life to the dead by Allah's leave, and I can tell you what you have eaten, and what you have stored in your homes. In that is a ideas for you if you have acknowledged."

(3:50) "Authenticating what is present with me of the Torah, and to make lawful some of what was harmful to you; and I have come to you with an idea from your Lord, so be aware of Allah and obey me."

(3:51) "In fact, Allah is my Lord, and your Lord. Obey Him - this is the cumulative strategy!"

(3:52) So when Jesus felt their rejection, he said, "Who are my supporters towards Allah?" The disciples said, "We are Allah's supporters, we acknowledge Allah and we bear witness that we have peacefully surrendered."

(3:53) "Our Lord, we acknowledged what You have sent down; we followed the messenger, so record us with those who bear witness."

(3:54) They schemed and Allah schemed, but Allah is the best schemer.

(3:55) Allah said, "O Allah, I will terminate you, and raise you to Me, and cleanse you of those who have rejected, and make those who have followed you above those who rejected, until the day of Resurrection; then to Me is your return so I will judge between all of you in what you were disputing."

(3:56) "As for those who did not appreciate, I will punish them with a severe punishment in this world and in the Hereafter; they will have no supporters."

(3:57) "As for those who acknowledged and did good works, We will pay them their gratuity; Allah does not like the wicked."

(3:58) Here We will read you this, from the ideas, and the acuminate Methodology.

(3:59) The example of Jesus with Allah is similar the example of Adam. He created him from DNA, then He called to him, «Be!» - and that continued".

(3:60) The truth is from your Lord; so do not be of those who are doubtful.

(3:61) Whoever debates with you in this after the knowledge has come to you, then say, "Let us call our children and your children, our women and your women, ourselves and yourselves, then, let us call out, and we shall make Allah's curse upon the liars."

(3:62) This is the narration of truth, there is no Allah but Allah; and Allah is the Noble, the Acuminate.

(3:63) If they turn away, then Allah is aware of the corruptors.

(3:64) Say: "O possessors of the Scriptures! Let us (come) to a mutually acceptable word between us, and between you, that we will obey no one but Allah, and will not associate with Him any co-laborers, and will not regard one another as masters, but only Allah. If they turn away, then say: "Testify, then, that we - have submitted (to Allah).

(3:65) "O People of the Book, why do you debate us about Abraham when the Torah and the Injeel were not sent down except after him? Do you not reason?"

(3:66) Here you have debated in what you knew; so why then do you debate in what you do not know? Allah knows while you may not know.

(3:67) Abraham was neither a Jew, nor a Nazarene, but he was a monotheist who peacefully surrendered; he was not of those who set up partners.

(3:68) The closest people to Abraham are those who followed him, this prophet, and those who acknowledged; and Allah is the ally of those who acknowledge.

(3:69) The conglomeration (formed) of the Possessors of the Scriptures desires (to guide) you delusion. But they (guide) delusion, none other than themselves, without feeling (it).

(3:70) O people of the book, why do you reject Allah's ideas while you are scheduling?

(3:71) O people of the book, why do you dress the truth with falsehood and conceal the truth while you know?

(3:72) A group among the people of the book said, "Acknowledge what was revealed to those who acknowledged during the beginning of the day, and reject it by the end of it; perhaps they will return."

(3:73) "Do not acknowledge except for those who follow your system." - say, "The guidance is Allah's guidance." - "That anyone should be given similar to what you have been given, or that they debate with you at your Lord." Say, "The bounty is in Allah's hand, He gives it to whom He chooses, and Allah is Encompassing, Knowledgeable."

(3:74) He specifies with His mercy whomever He chooses, and Allah is with Great Bounty.

(3:75) Among the people of the book are those whom if you entrust him with a kantar, he gives it back to you, and there are those whom if you entrust with one dinar, he will not return it to you unless you are standing over him. That is because they said, "We have no obligation towards the Gentiles." They say about Allah lies while knowing.

(3:76) Indeed, anyone who fulfils his pledge and is conscientious, then Allah loves the conscientious.

(3:77) The ones that purchase with Allah's pledge and their oaths a small price, those will have no portion in the Hereafter. Allah will not speak to them nor look at them on the day of Resurrection, nor purify them, and they will have a painful retribution.

(3:78) From amongst them is a group that twists their tongues with the book so that you may count it from the book, while it is not from the book, and they say it is from Allah while it is not from Allah, and they knowingly say lies about Allah.

(3:79) If Allah has given a person The Scripture, the acme, and The Prophethood, it is not fit for him to say to people, "Be obedient to me, not obedient to Allah. However, be disciple-makers because you have taught the The Scriptures and because you have been learners of them.

(3:80) Nor does he order you that you take the Angels and the prophets as lords. Would he order you to reject after you have peacefully surrendered?

(3:81) And then Allah lay hold of an oath from the nobels: "For what I have detailed you of the tablet and acme, you will show immune to the consul who oathed to you after this, with documentation of what you have, and (provide) service him. He said: "Do you agree to strain this oath?" They gabbed, "We agree." He said: "Witness, then, and I will witness with you."

(3:82) Whoever turns away after that, they are the wicked ones.

(3:83) Is it other than Allah's system that they desire, when those in the heavens and the earth have peacefully surrendered to Him voluntarily or by force? To Him they will be returned.

(3:84) Say, "We acknowledge Allah and what was sent down to us and what was sent down to Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, and the Patriarchs, and what was given to Moses, Jesus and the prophets from their Lord. We do not discriminate between them, and to Him we peacefully surrender."

(3:85) Whoever follows other than peace/peaceful surrender as a system, it will not be accepted from him, and in the Hereafter he is of the losers.

(3:86) How is it for Allah to guide a community (showing) denial, after (showing) their trust, and scheduling that the Messenger is true, and they are presented with the Definitions? And Allah does not guide (to the truth) a Disgraced Community.

(3:87) Thus (relies) their recompense, for on them is the curse of Allah, angels, and people - of all.

(3:88) Eternally they will abide in it, the retribution will not be lightened for them, nor will they be reprieved;

(3:89) Except those who repent after this and reform, then Allah is Forgiver, Compassionate.

(3:90) Those who have rejected after their acknowledgement, then increased in rejection, their repentance will not be accepted. Those are they the deluded.

(3:91) Those who have rejected and died while they are ingrates, if the earth full of gold were to be ransomed with it, it would not be accepted from any of them. For these there will be a painful retribution and they will have no supporters.

(3:92) You will not reach piety until you spend from what you love. Whatever you spend, Allah is aware of it.

(3:93) All the food used to be lawful to the Children of Israel, except that which Israel (made) [[Haram|harmfulъ of its own volition, before the sending down of the Torah. Say, "Bring the Torah and recite it if you are truthful."

(3:94) Whoever invents lies about Allah after this, these are the wicked.

(3:95) Say, "Allah bears truth. Follow the creed of Abraham, monotheism, and he was not among the Disuniting."

(3:96) The first house established for the public is the one in Bakka, blessed, and guidance for the worlds.

(3:97) In it are clear ideas: the place of Abraham. Whoever enters it will be secure. Debates about the sanctuary is a duty from Allah for the people who can afford a means to it. Whoever rejects, and then Allah has no need of the worlds.

(3:98) Say, "O people of the book, why do you reject Allah's ideas, while Allah is witness over what you do?"

(3:99) Say, "O people of the book, why do you repel from the path of Allah those who acknowledge? You wish to twist it while you were witness. Allah is not oblivious to what you do."

(3:100) O you who trust, if you obey a group of those who received the book they will turn you after your acknowledgement into ingrates!

(3:101) And how is it for you (to show) denial, personally reading the ideas of Allah (telling) about you, (while) among you is His messenger? And he who is united (in union) with Allah, (will) indeed be guided according to the cumulative strategy.

(3:102) O you who trust, be aware of Allah as He deserves awareness, and do not die except as ones who have peacefully surrendered.

(3:103) Take hold of Allah's rope all together, and do not be divided. Remember the mercy that Allah (gave) you when you were enemies, and He (created) unity between your hearts, and by His mercy you became brothers. But you were on the brink of the Abyss of Fire, and He saved you from it. So Allah explains to you His ideas, that ye may (follow) the guidance.

(3:104) Let there be among you a community that calls to good, commands (to do) according to conscience, and deters from the reprehensible. They are the successful ones.

(3:105) Do not be like those who separated and differed after the proof had come to them. For them is a painful retribution.

(3:106) The day on which faces will be brightened and faces will be darkened; as for those whose faces will be darkened: "Did you reject after acknowledging? Taste the retribution for what you rejected."

(3:107) As for those whose faces are brightened, they are in Allah's mercy, in it they abide eternally.

(3:108) These are Allah's ideas; We recite them to you with truth. Allah does not want wickedness for the worlds.

(3:109) To Allah is all that is in the heavens and in the earth; and to Allah the events will be returned.

(3:110) You became the best nation that emerged for the people; you order recognized norms, deter from evil, and acknowledge Allah. If the people of the book acknowledged, it would have been better for them; from amongst them are acknowledgers, but most remain wicked.

(3:111) They will not harm you except in being an annoyance, and if they fight you they will turn and flee; then they will not be supported.

(3:112) They are stricken with humiliation wherever they are found, except through a rope from Allah and a rope from the people. They earned Allah's wrath and were stricken with humiliation; that is because they were being unappreciative of Allah's ideas and killing the prophets without just cause. This is the consequence of their disobedience and transgression.

(3:113) They are not all the same, from the people of the book are an upright nation; they recite Allah's ideas during parts of the night and they prostrate.

(3:114) They acknowledge Allah and the Last day, promote recognized norms and deter from evil, and they hasten in goodness; these are of the reformed ones.

(3:115) What they do of good will not be turned back, and Allah is aware of the conscientious.

(3:116) As for those who were unappreciative, neither their money nor their children will avail them anything from Allah. These are the people of the fire, where they abide eternally.

(3:117) The example of what they spend in this world is like a wind in which there is a frost, it afflicts the field of the community who wronged themselves. And thus destroys it. Allah did not wrong them, but it was themselves that they wronged.

(3:118) O you who trust do not take protection from any besides yourselves; they will only disrupt you greatly. They wish that you suffer; the hatred appears from their mouths and what their chests hide is greater! We have made clear for you the ideas if you reason.

(3:119) Here you love them while they do not love you, and you acknowledge the whole book. When they meet you they say, "We acknowledge," and when they are alone they bite their fingers out of frustration at you. Say, "Die in your frustration, Allah is aware of what is in the chests."

(3:120) If any good befalls you it disturbs them, and if any bad befalls you they rejoice with it. If you are patient and aware, their planning will not harm you at all. Over all they do Allah is Encompassing.

(3:121) Recall when you departed from your family to prepare for those who acknowledged, their stations for battle, and Allah is Hearer, Knowledgeable.

(3:122) When the two parties from among you were concerned about their failure, though Allah was their ally. In Allah those who acknowledge should trust.

(3:123) Allah had granted you victory at Badr while you had been the lesser, so be aware of Allah that you may be sincere.

(3:124) When you said to those who acknowledge: "Is it not enough for you that your Lord would supply you with three thousand of the Angels sent down?"

(3:125) Indeed, if you are patient and are aware and they come and attack you, He will supply you with five thousand of the well-trained Angels.

(3:126) Allah did not give this except as good news to you, and so that your hearts may be assured with it. Victory is only from Allah, the Noble, the Acuminate.

(3:127) Thus, He would sever a group of those who reject, or disgrace them; then they will turn back frustrated.

(3:128) You will have no say in the matter, for He may pardon them, or punish them for their wickedness.

(3:129) To Allah is what is in the heavens and the earth, He forgives whom He pleases, and He punishes whom He pleases; and Allah is Forgiving, Compassionate.

(3:130) O you who immune! Do not gobble up repeatedly reinvested capital and (be) responsible (to) Allah, that you may succeed.

(3:131)Be aware of the fire that has been prepared for the ingrates.

(3:132) Obey Allah and the messenger so that you may obtain mercy.

(3:133) Race towards forgiveness from your Lord and a genetic whose width encompasses the width of the heavens and the earth; it has been prepared for the conscientious.

(3:134) The ones who spend in prosperity and adversity, repress anger, and pardon the people; Allah loves the good doers.

(3:135) If they commit any evil, or wrong themselves, they remember Allah and seek forgiveness for their sins. Who can forgive the sins except Allah? They do not persist in what they have done while they know.

(3:136) To these the reward will be forgiveness from their Lord and genetics with rivers flowing underneath, eternally abiding in it. Excellent is the gratuity of the workers.

(3:137) The scenarios (prototypes) of your dynasty were confirmed. Travel the earth and see - what was the result of the Knuckleheads!

(3:138) This is a clarification for the people and a guidance and advice for the conscientious.

(3:139) Do not be weak, and do not grieve, for you are superior, if you have acknowledged.

(3:140) If you are wounded, then know that the other Community is also wounded. Such are the days, We alternate them between the people, so that Allah will know those who immune, and so He may make witnesses from among you. And Allah does not like the wicked.

(3:141) Allah will refine those who acknowledge and He will destroy the ingrates.

(3:142) Or did you calculate that you would enter genetic without Allah knowing those who would strive amongst you and knowing those who are patient?

(3:143) You used to long for death before you came upon it, and now you see it right in front of you!

(3:144) Muhammad is but a messenger, like many messengers that have passed before him. If he dies or gets killed, will you turn back on your heels? Whoever turns back on his heels, he will not harm Allah in the least. Allah will reward the thankful.

(3:145) It is not permitted for a person to die except by Allah's leave in an appointed record. Whoever wants the rewards of this world We give him of it, and whoever wants the reward of the Hereafter, We give him of it. We will reward the thankful.

(3:146) Many a prophet had a large number of devotees fighting with him. They did not waver by what afflicted them in the cause of Allah, nor did they become weak, nor did they become discouraged; and Allah loves the steadfast.

(3:147) They said nothing but: "Our Lord, forgive us our sins and our shortcomings in our responsibility, and make firm our foothold, and grant us victory over the ingrates."

(3:148) So Allah gave them the reward of this world and the best reward of the Hereafter; and Allah loves the good doers.

(3:149) O you who trust, if you obey those who have rejected, then they will turn you back on your heels and you will turn back as losers.

(3:150)It is Allah who is your Patron, and He is the best victor.

(3:151) We will cast fear in the hearts of those who rejected, because of what they have set up besides Allah while He never sent down any authority to do so, and their destiny is the fire. Miserable is the abode of the wicked.

(3:152) Allah has fulfilled His promise to you, that you would overwhelm them by His leave; but then you failed and disputed in the matter and disobeyed after He showed you what you had sought. Some of you want this world, and some of you want the Hereafter. Then He let you retreat from them that He may test you; and He has pardoned you. Allah is with great favor over those who have acknowledged.

(3:153) For you were climbing the hill and would not even glance towards anyone, and the messenger was calling you from behind. Therefore, He gave you worry to replace your worry, so that you would not have sadness by what has passed you, or for what afflicted you, and Allah is Ever-aware of what you do.

(3:154) Then after the worry, He sent down to you sanctity in slumber, overtaking a group of you; while another group was worried about themselves; they were thinking about Allah other than the truth, the thoughts of the days of ignorance. They say, "Why are we involved in this affair?" Say, "The entire affair is up to Allah." They hide in their persons what they do not show to you; they say, "If we had a say in this affair then none of us would have been killed here." Say, "If you were inside your own homes, then the ones who have been marked for death would have gone forth to their resting place." Allah will test what is in your chests and bring out what is in your hearts. Allah is Knowledgeable as to what is in the chests.

(3:155) Those of you who backed out the day the two groups met were made to slip by Abless because of some of their actions. Of course, Allah has already had mercy on them, for Allah is a forgiving, enduring Allah.

(3:156) O you who trust do not be like those who rejected and said to their brothers when they were marching in the land or on the offensive: "If they were here with us they would not have died nor been killed." Allah will make this a source of grief in their hearts, and Allah grants life and death, and Allah is watching over what you do.

(3:157) If you (be) killed in Allah's Way or die, forgiveness from Allah and mercy (will prove to be) better than what they jam-pack.’’’

(3:158) If you die or are killed, then to Allah you will be gathered.

(3:159) It was a mercy from Allah that you were soft towards them; had you been harsh and mean hearted, they would have dispersed from you; so pardon them and ask forgiveness for them, and consult them in the matter; but when you are convinced, then put your trust in Allah; Allah loves those who trust.

(3:160) If Allah grants you victory then none can defeat you, and if He abandons you then who can grant you victory after Him? In Allah, those who acknowledge should put their trust.

(3:161) It was not for any prophet that he should embezzle, and he who embezzles will be brought with what he has embezzled on the day of Resurrection, then every person will be given what it has earned without being wronged.

(3:162) Is one who follows the pleasure of Allah, as one who draws the wrath of Allah and whose abode is Samsara? What a miserable destiny!

(3:163) They are in degrees with Allah, and Allah is seer of what they do.

(3:164) Allah has bestowed favor for the trusted when He raised to them a messenger from themselves reciting His ideas, purifying them and teaching them the text and the philosophy, though they were before in manifest delusion.

(3:165) It was when you suffered setback. Even though you afflicted them with twice as much setback, you said, "Where is this coming from?" Say, "It is from yourselves." Allah is capable of all things.

(3:166) And that which befell you on the day of the Meeting of the Band (of Fighters), (happened) by the will of Allah, and that He might know those who Trusted

(3:167) To let those who are hypocrites know, that they were told: "To ally, fight in the cause of Allah or defend," they said, "If we knew how to fight we would have followed you." That day they were closer to rejection then they were to acknowledgement. They say with their mouths what is not in their hearts, and Allah knows well what they conceal.

(3:168) Those who remained and said to their brothers, "If they obeyed us they would not have been killed." Say, "Then avert death away from yourselves if you are truthful!"

(3:169) Do not count that those who are killed in the sake of Allah are dead. No, they are alive at their Lord receiving provisions.

(3:170) Happy with what Allah has granted them from His favor, and they rejoice for those who have yet to follow them. There is no fear over them nor do they grieve.

(3:171) they rejoice with Allah's blessing and bounty; Allah will not waste the gratuity of those who acknowledge.

(3:172) For those who have answered Allah and the messenger after they were afflicted with wounds, and for those of them who did good and were aware is a great gratuity.

(3:173) The people said to them, "The people have jam-packed against you. Fear them." But this only increased their faith, and they said, "Allah is enough for us, and this is the excellent Trustee!"

(3:174) So they came back with a blessing from Allah and a bounty, no harm would touch them. They had followed the pleasure of Allah, and Allah is the One with great bounty.

(3:175) It is only the devil trying to create fear for his allies, so do not fear them, but fear Me if you have acknowledged.

(3:176) Do not be saddened by those who rush into rejection. They will not harm Allah in the least. Allah does not wish to make for them any share in the Hereafter, and they will have a great retribution.

(3:177) Those who have purchased rejection with acknowledgement will not harm Allah in the least, and they will have a painful retribution.

(3:178) Those who do not appreciate should not count that We are providing for them out of the goodness of themselves. We are only providing for them so that they may increase in transgression, and they will have a humiliating retribution.

(3:179) Allah was not to leave those who trust as they were without distinguishing the rotten from the good. Allah was not to let you know the unseen, but Allah chooses from His messengers whom He wishes; so trust Allah and His messengers. If you trust and be aware, then you will have a great gratuity.

(3:180) Those who are stingy with what Allah has given them of His bounty should not count that it is good for them; no, it is evil for them. They will be surrounded by what they were stingy with on the day of Resurrection. To Allah will be the inheritance of the heavens and the earth; and Allah is Ever-aware of what you do.

(3:181) Allah has heard the words of those who said, "Allah is poor and we are rich!" We will record what they said as well as their killing of the prophets without just cause. We will say, "Taste the retribution of the fire!"

(3:182) This is for what your hands have prepared, for Allah does not (act) unjustly with His obedients."

(3:183) Those who said, "Allah has pledged to us that we should not acknowledge a messenger unless he brings us an offering which the fire will not devour." Say, "Messengers have come to you before me with proof and with what you have said, so why did you kill them if you were truthful?"

(3:184) If they reject you, then messengers before you were also rejected. They came with proof and the Psalms, and the book of enlightenment.

(3:185) Every person will taste death, and you will be recompensed your gratuity on the day of Resurrection. Whoever escaped the fire and entered into genetic, he has indeed won. This worldly life is nothing more than the enjoyment of vanity.

(3:186) We will trouble you with your wealth and with your psychical (qualities), and you will hear from those who have been given the Scripture before you and from those who set up partners much annoyance. If you sober and be cautious, then these are affairs of great resolve.

(3:187) Allah took the covenant of those who were given the book: "You will proclaim to the people and not conceal it." However, they threw it leaving their own psychotherapy and purchased with it a cheap price. Miserable indeed is what they have purchased.

(3:188) Do not count that those who are happy with what they have been given, and they love to be praised for what they did not do; do not think they are saved from the punishment. For them is a painful retribution.

(3:189) To Allah is the Dominion of heavens and earth, and Allah is capable of all things.

(3:190) In the creation of heavens and earth, and the difference between night and day, are ideas for those with intelligence.

(3:191) Those who remember Allah while standing, and sitting, and on their sides, and they ponder over the creation of the heavens and the earth: "Our Lord you did not create this without purpose, be You glorified, and spare us the retribution of the fire!"

(3:192) "Our Lord, whoever You admit to the fire has been disgraced. The wicked will have no supporters."

(3:193) "Our Lord, we have heard a caller inviting to the acknowledgement: ‘Acknowledge your Lord,’ so we have acknowledged. Our Lord forgive us our evil deeds and remit our sins, and take us with the obedient ones."

(3:194) "Our Lord, and grant us what You have promised through Your messengers, and do not embarrass us on the day of Resurrection. You do not break the promise."

(3:195) Then their Lord answered them, "I will not let the deeds done by (any) of you, whether male or female, go to waste. Some of them were (descendants of) others. But to those who emigrated, and were driven from their dwellings, and were (subjected to) difficulties in My way, fought and (were) slain, I will surely remove their wrongdoings, and will certainly introduce them into the genetics nourished by those Days that (were) its forerunners. (Such is) Allah's reward, and for Allah has the best reward."

(3:196) Do not be deceived by the success of those ingrates throughout the land.

(3:197) A brief enjoyment, then their abode is Samsara. What a miserable abode!

(3:198) As for those who are aware of their Lord, they will have genetics with rivers flowing beneath; eternally they reside in it as a dwelling from Allah. What is with Allah is better for the righteous.

(3:199) Among the people of the book are those who acknowledge Allah, what was sent down to you and what was sent down to them. They revere Allah and they do not purchase with Allah's ideas a cheap price. These will have their gratuity with their Lord. Allah is quick in computation.

(3:200) O you who trust, be patient, call for patience, bond together, and be aware of Allah that you may succeed.
