الْبَيِّنَةُ

Audio

لَمْ يَكُنِ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا مِنْ اَهْلِ الْكِتٰبِ وَالْمُشْرِكِيْنَ مُنْفَكِّيْنَ حَتّٰى تَأْتِيَهُمُ الْبَيِّنَةُۙ

lam yakunillażīna kafarụ min ahlil-kitābi wal-musyrikīna munfakkīna ḥattā ta`tiyahumul-bayyinah

THOSE AMONG THE people of the Book who disbelieve and the idolaters would not have been freed (from FALSE beliefs) until the clear proof came to them --

رَسُوْلٌ مِّنَ اللّٰهِ يَتْلُوْا صُحُفًا مُّطَهَّرَةًۙ

rasụlum minallāhi yatlụ ṣuḥufam muṭahharah

An Apostle from God reading out hallowed pages

فِيْهَا كُتُبٌ قَيِّمَةٌ ۗ

fīhā kutubung qayyimah

Containing firm decrees.

وَمَا تَفَرَّقَ الَّذِيْنَ اُوْتُوا الْكِتٰبَ اِلَّا مِنْۢ بَعْدِ مَا جَاۤءَتْهُمُ الْبَيِّنَةُ ۗ

wa mā tafarraqallażīna ụtul-kitāba illā mim ba'di mā jā`at-humul-bayyinah

The people of the Book were not divided among themselves till after the clear proof had come to them.

وَمَآ اُمِرُوْٓا اِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُوا اللّٰهَ مُخْلِصِيْنَ لَهُ الدِّيْنَ ەۙ حُنَفَاۤءَ وَيُقِيْمُوا الصَّلٰوةَ وَيُؤْتُوا الزَّكٰوةَ وَذٰلِكَ دِيْنُ الْقَيِّمَةِۗ

wa mā umirū illā liya'budullāha mukhliṣīna lahud-dīna ḥunafā`a wa yuqīmuṣ-ṣalāta wa yu`tuz-zakāta wa żālika dīnul-qayyimah

They were commanded only to serve God with all-exclusive faith in Him to be upright and to fulfil their devotional obligations and to give zakat; for this is the even way.

اِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا مِنْ اَهْلِ الْكِتٰبِ وَالْمُشْرِكِيْنَ فِيْ نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ خٰلِدِيْنَ فِيْهَاۗ اُولٰۤىِٕكَ هُمْ شَرُّ الْبَرِيَّةِۗ

innallażīna kafarụ min ahlil-kitābi wal-musyrikīna fī nāri jahannama khālidīna fīhā, ulā`ika hum syarrul-bariyyah

Surely the unbelievers among the people of the Book and the idolaters will abide in the fire of Hell. They are the worst of creatures.

اِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ اُولٰۤىِٕكَ هُمْ خَيْرُ الْبَرِيَّةِۗ

innallażīna āmanụ wa 'amiluṣ-ṣāliḥāti ulā`ika hum khairul-bariyyah

But those who believe and do the right are surely the best of created beings

جَزَاۤؤُهُمْ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ جَنّٰتُ عَدْنٍ تَجْرِيْ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهٰرُ خٰلِدِيْنَ فِيْهَآ اَبَدًا ۗرَضِيَ اللّٰهُ عَنْهُمْ وَرَضُوْا عَنْهُ ۗ ذٰلِكَ لِمَنْ خَشِيَ رَبَّهٗ

jazā`uhum 'inda rabbihim jannātu 'adnin tajrī min taḥtihal-an-hāru khālidīna fīhā abadā, raḍiyallāhu 'an-hum wa raḍụ 'an-h, żālika liman khasyiya rabbah

Whose reward is with their Lord -- gardens of Eden with rivers flowing by where they will abide for ever God pleased with their service they with obedience to Him. This (awaits) him who stands in awe of his Lord.
