Sura - 61 The Column
(Al-Suff) |
[61:0] In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
[61:1] Glorifying GOD is everything in the heavens
and everything on earth. He is the Almighty, Most Wise.
[61:2] O you who believe, why do you say what you
do not do?
[61:3] Most abominable in the sight of GOD is that
you say what you do not do.
[61:4] GOD loves those who fight in His cause united
in one column, like the bricks in one wall.
[61:5] Recall that Moses said to his people, "O my
people, why do you hurt me, even though you know that I am GOD's messenger
to you?" When they deviated, GOD diverted their hearts. For GOD does not
guide the wicked people.
Messenger After Jesus
[61:6] Recall that Jesus, son of Mary, said, "O Children
of Israel, I am GOD's messenger to you, confirming the Torah and bringing
good news of a messenger to come after me whose name will be even more praised
(Ahmad)." Then, when he showed them the clear proofs, they said, "This is
profound magic."
[61:7] Who is more evil than one who fabricates lies
about GOD, and he is being invited to Submission? GOD does not guide the
evil people.
[61:8] They wish to put out GOD's light with their
mouths. But GOD insists upon perfecting His light, in spite of the
disbelievers.
The Great Prophecy
[61:9] He has sent His messenger with the guidance
and the true religion, and will make it dominate all religions, in spite
of the idol worshipers.
The Best Deal
[61:10] O you who believe, let Me inform you of
a trade that will save you from painful retribution.
[61:11] Believe in GOD and His messenger and strive
in the cause of GOD with your money and your lives. This is the best deal
for you, if you only knew.
[61:12] In return, He forgives your sins, and admits
you into gardens with flowing streams, with beautiful mansions in the gardens
of Eden. This is the greatest triumph.
[61:13] Additionally, you get something you truly
love: support from GOD and guaranteed victory. Give good news to the
believers.
*61:9 The specific name of this messenger is spelled out
mathematically (Appendix
2
).
