Wir verlesen dir von der Kunde über Musa und Fir'aun der Wahrheit entsprechend, für Leute, die glauben.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

We recite to you some of the news of Musa (Moses) and Fir'aun (Pharaoh) in truth, for a people who believe (in this Qur'an, and in the Oneness of Allah).

Deutsch

Gewiß, Fir'aun zeigte sich überheblich im Land und machte seine Bewohner zu Lagern, von denen er einen Teil unterdrückte, indem er ihre Söhne abschlachtete und (nur) ihre Frauen am Leben ließ. Gewiß, er gehörte zu den Unheilstiftern.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

Verily, Fir'aun (Pharaoh) exalted himself in the land and made its people sects, weakening (oppressing) a group (i.e. Children of Israel) among them: killing their sons, and letting their females live. Verily, he was of the Mufsidun (i.e. those who commit great sins and crimes, oppressors, tyrants).

Yusuf Ali

Truly Pharaoh elated himself in the land and broke up its people into sections, depressing a small group among them: their sons he slew, but he kept alive their females: for he was indeed a maker of mischief.

Wir aber wollten denjenigen, die im Land unterdrückt wurden, eine Wohltat erweisen und sie zu Vorbildern machen und zu Erben machen,

Yusuf Ali

To establish a firm place for them in the land, and to show Pharaoh, Haman, and their hosts, at their hands, the very things against which they were taking precautions.

Deutsch

Und Wir gaben der Mutter Musas ein: "Stille ihn. Und wenn du um ihn fürchtest, dann setze ihn in das Wasser und fürchte dich nicht und sei nicht traurig. Wir werden ihn dir zurückbringen und ihn zu einem der Gesandten machen."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And We inspired the mother of Musa (Moses): (telling): "Suckle him [Musa (Moses)], but when you fear for him, then cast him into the river and fear not, nor grieve. Verily, We shall bring him back to you, and shall make him one of (Our) Messengers." [Tafsir Al-Qurtubi]

Yusuf Ali

So We sent this inspiration to the mother of Moses: "Suckle (thy child), but when thou hast fears about him, cast him into the river, but fear not nor grieve: for We shall restore him to thee, and We shall make him one of Our messengers."

Da lasen ihn die Angehörigen Fir'auns auf, damit er ihnen zum Feind und (Grund zum) Kummer werde. Gewiß, Fir'aun, Haman und deren Heerscharen pflegten verfehlt zu handeln.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

Then the household of Fir'aun (Pharaoh) picked him up, that he might become for them an enemy and a (cause of) grief. Verily, Fir'aun (Pharaoh), Haman and their hosts were sinners.

Yusuf Ali

Then the people of Pharaoh picked him up (from the river): (It was intended) that (Moses) should be to them an adversary and a cause of sorrow: for Pharaoh and Haman and (all) their hosts were men of sin.

Die Frau Fir'auns sagte: "(Er wird) für mich und dich ein Grund zur Freude sein. Tötet ihn nicht. Vielleicht nützt er uns oder wir nehmen ihn als Kind an." Dabei merkten sie nicht (, was sie taten).

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And the wife of Fir'aun (Pharaoh) said: "A comfort of the eye for me and for you. Kill him not, perhaps he may be of benefit to us, or we may adopt him as a son." And they perceived not (the result of that).

Yusuf Ali

The wife of Pharaoh said: "(Here is) joy of the eye, for me and for thee: slay him not. It may be that he will be use to us, or we may adopt him as a son." And they perceived not (what they were doing)!

Deutsch

Und das Herz der Mutter Musas wurde leer. Beinahe hätte sie ihn fürwahr offen bekanntgegeben, wenn Wir nicht ihr Herz gestärkt hätten, damit sie zu den Gläubigen gehöre.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And the heart of the mother of Musa (Moses) became empty [from every thought, except the thought of Musa (Moses)]. She was very near to disclose his (case, i.e. the child is her son), had We not strengthened her heart (with Faith), so that she might remain as one of the believers.

Yusuf Ali

But there came to be a void in the heart of the mother of Moses: She was going almost to disclose his (case), had We not strengthened her heart (with faith), so that she might remain a (firm) believer.

Deutsch

Nun hatten Wir ihm zuvor die Ammenbrüste verwehrt. Da sagte sie: "Soll ich euch auf Hausleute hinweisen, die ihn für euch betreuen und ihm aufrichtig zugetan sein würden?"

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And We had already forbidden (other) foster suckling mothers for him, until she (his sister came up and) said: "Shall I direct you to a household who will rear him for you, and look after him in a good manner?"

Yusuf Ali

And we ordained that he refused suck at first, until (His sister came up and) said: "Shall I point out to you the people of a house that will nourish and bring him up for you and be sincerely attached to him?"...

Deutsch

So brachten Wir ihn zu seiner Mutter zurück, damit sie frohen Mutes und nicht mehr traurig sei und damit sie wissen sollte, daß Allahs Versprechen wahr ist. Aber die meisten von ihnen wissen nicht.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

So did We restore him to his mother, that her eye might be comforted, and that she might not grieve, and that she might know that the Promise of Allah is true. But most of them know not.

Yusuf Ali

Thus did We restore him to his mother, that her eye might be comforted, that she might not grieve, and that she might know that the promise of Allah is true: but most of them do not understand.

Deutsch

Und als er seine Vollreife und sein Ebenmaß erlangt hatte, gaben Wir ihm Urteil(skraft) und Wissen. So vergelten Wir den Gutes Tuenden.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And when he attained his full strength, and was perfect (in manhood), We bestowed on him Hukm (Prophethood and right judgement of the affairs) and religious knowledge [of the religion of his forefathers i.e. Islamic Monotheism]. And thus do We reward the Muhsinun (i.e. good doers. See the footnote of V.9:120).

Yusuf Ali

When he reached full age, and was firmly established (in life), We bestowed on him wisdom and knowledge: for thus do We reward those who do good.

Deutsch

Und er betrat die Stadt zu einer Zeit, als ihre Bewohner unachtsam waren. Da fand er darin zwei Männer, die miteinander kämpften, der eine war von seinem (eigenen) Lager, der andere von seinen Feinden. Da rief ihn derjenige, der von seinem Lager war, zu Hilfe gegen denjenigen, der von den Feinden war. Dann schlug ihn Musa mit der Faust und brachte ihn so um. Er sagte: "Das gehört zum Werk des Satans. Gewiß, er ist ein deutlicher Feind, der in die Irre führt."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And he entered the city at a time of unawareness of its people: and he found there two men fighting, - one of his party (his religion - from the Children of Israel), and the other of his foes. The man of his (own) party asked him for help against his foe, so Musa (Moses) struck him with his fist and killed him. He said: "This is of Shaitan's (Satan) doing: verily, he is a plain misleading enemy."

Yusuf Ali

And he entered the city at a time when its people were not watching: and he found there two men fighting, - one of his own religion, and the other, of his foes. Now the man of his own religion appealed to him against his foe, and Moses struck him with his fist and made an end of him. He said: "This is a work of Evil (Satan): for he is an enemy that manifestly misleads!"

Deutsch

Er sagte: "Mein Herr, ich habe mir selbst Unrecht zugefügt; so vergib mir." Da vergab Er ihm, denn Er ist ja der Allvergebende und Barmherzige.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

He said: "My Lord! Verily, I have wronged myself, so forgive me." Then He forgave him. Verily, He is the Oft-Forgiving, the Most Merciful.

Yusuf Ali

He prayed: "O my Lord! I have indeed wronged my soul! Do Thou then forgive me!" So (Allah) forgave him: for He is the Oft - Forgiving, Most Merciful.

Deutsch

Er sagte: "Mein Herr, darum, daß Du mir Gunst erwiesen hast, werde ich den Übeltätern nicht mehr Beistand leisten."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

He said: "My Lord! For that with which You have favoured me, I will never more be a helper of the Mujrimun (criminals, disbelievers, polytheists, sinners)!"

Yusuf Ali

He said: "O my Lord! For that Thou hast bestowed Thy Grace on me, never shall I be a help to those who sin!"

Deutsch

Am Morgen war er in der Stadt furchtsam und hielt (immer wieder) Ausschau. Auf einmal schrie derjenige, der ihn am Tag zuvor um Hilfe gebeten hatte, zu ihm um Beistand. Musa sagte zu ihm: "Du bist offenkundig einer, der wahrlich (zu Gewalttaten) verleitet."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

So he became afraid, looking about in the city (waiting as to what will be the result of his crime of killing), when behold, the man who had sought his help the day before, called for his help (again). Musa (Moses) said to him: "Verily, you are a plain misleader!"

Yusuf Ali

So he saw the morning in the city, looking about, in a state of fear, when behold, the man who had, the day before, sought his help called aloud for his help (again). Moses said to him: "Thou art truly, it is clear, a quarrelsome fellow!"

Deutsch

Als er nun mit Gewalt denjenigen packen wollte, der ihrer beider Feind war, sagte dieser: "O Musa, willst du denn mich töten, wie du gestern eine (Menschen)seele getötet hast? Du willst ja nur ein Gewalttäter im Land sein, und du willst nicht zu den Heilstiftern gehören."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

Then when he decided to seize the man who was an enemy to both of them, the man said: "O Musa (Moses)! Is it your intention to kill me as you killed a man yesterday? Your aim is nothing but to become a tyrant in the land, and not to be one of those who do right."

Yusuf Ali

Then, when he decided to lay hold of the man who was an enemy to both of them, that man said: "O Moses! Is it thy intention to slay me as thou slewest a man yesterday? Thy intention is none other than to become a powerful violent man in the land, and not to be one who sets things right!"

Deutsch

Und es kam ein Mann vom äußersten Ende der Stadt gelaufen. Er sagte: "O Musa, die führende Schar berät über dich, um dich zu töten. So geh fort, gewiß, ich gehöre zu denjenigen, die dir guten Rat geben."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And there came a man running, from the farthest end of the city. He said: "O Musa (Moses)! Verily, the chiefs are taking counsel together about you, to kill you, so escape. Truly, I am one of the good advisers to you."

Yusuf Ali

And there came a man, running, from the furthest end of the City. He said: "O Moses! the Chiefs are taking counsel together about thee, to slay thee: so get thee away, for I do give thee sincere advice."

Deutsch

So ging er furchtsam aus ihr fort und hielt (immer wieder) Ausschau. Er sagte: "Mein Herr, errette mich von dem ungerechten Volk."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

So he escaped from there, looking about in a state of fear. He said: "My Lord! Save me from the people who are Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers)!"

Yusuf Ali

He therefore got away therefrom, looking about, in a state of fear. He prayed "O my Lord! save me from people given to wrong - doing."

Und als er sich Madyan zuwandte, sagte er: "Vielleicht wird mein Herr mich den rechten Weg leiten."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And when he went towards (the land of) Madyan (Midian), he said: "It may be that my Lord guides me to the Right Way."

Yusuf Ali

Then, when he turned his face towards (the land of) Madyan, he said: "I do hope that my Lord will show me the smooth and straight Path."

Deutsch

Als er nun zum Wasser von Madyan kam, fand er dort eine (ganze) Gemeinschaft von Menschen, die (ihr Vieh) tränkten. Und er fand außer ihnen zwei Frauen, die (ihre Tiere) fernhielten. Er sagte: "Was ist mit euch beiden?" Sie sagten: "Wir tränken (unsere Tiere) nicht, bis die Hirten (ihr Vieh) weggetrieben haben. Und unser Vater ist ein hochbetagter Greis."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And when he arrived at the water (a well) of Madyan (Midian) he found there a group of men watering (their flocks), and besides them he found two women who were keeping back (their flocks). He said: "What is the matter with you?" They said: "We cannot water (our flocks) until the shepherds take (their flocks). And our father is a very old man."

Yusuf Ali

And when he arrived at the watering (place) in Madyan, he found there a group of men watering (their flocks), and besides them he found two women who were keeping back (their flocks).

Deutsch

Da tränkte er ihnen (ihre Tiere). Hierauf zog er sich zurück in den Schatten und sagte: "Mein Herr, ich bin dessen bedürftig, was Du auch immer an Gutem zu mir herabsendest."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

So he watered (their flocks) for them, then he turned back to shade, and said: "My Lord! truly, I am in need of whatever good that You bestow on me!"

Yusuf Ali

So he watered (their flocks) for them; then he turned back to the shade, and said:"O my Lord! truly am I in (desperate) need of any good that Thou dost send me!"

Deutsch

Da kam die eine von den beiden zu ihm, indem sie verschämt einherging. Sie sagte: "Mein Vater ruft dich, um dir den Lohn dafür zu entrichten, daß du uns (die Tiere) getränkt hast." Nachdem er zu ihm gekommen war und ihm die Geschichte berichtet hatte, sagte er: "Fürchte dich nicht; du bist dem ungerechten Volk entkommen."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

Then there came to him one of the two women, walking shyly. She said: "Verily, my father calls you that he may reward you for having watered (our flocks) for us." So when he came to him and narrated the story, he said: "Fear you not. You have escaped from the people who are Zalimun (polytheists, disbelievers, and wrong-doers)."

Yusuf Ali

Afterwards one of the (damsels) came (back) to him, walking bashfully. She said: "My father invites thee that he may reward thee for having watered (our flocks) for us." So when he came to him and narrated the story, he said: "Fear thou not: (well) hast thou escaped from unjust people."

Deutsch

Die eine von den beiden sagte: "O mein lieber Vater, nimm ihn in Dienst, denn der Beste, den du in Dienst nehmen kannst, ist der Starke und Vertrauenswürdige."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And said one of them (the two women): "O my father! Hire him! Verily, the best of men for you to hire is the strong, the trustworthy."

Yusuf Ali

Said one of the (damsels): "O my (dear) father! engage him on wages: truly the best of men for thee to employ is the (man) who is strong and trusty"....

Deutsch

Er sagte: "Ich will dich mit einer dieser meiner beiden Töchter verheiraten unter der Bedingung, daß du acht Jahre in meinen Dienst trittst. Wenn du sie aber auf zehn vollmachst, so steht es bei dir. Ich will dir keine Härte auferlegen. Du wirst mich, wenn Allah will, als einen der Rechtschaffenen finden."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

He said: "I intend to wed one of these two daughters of mine to you, on condition that you serve me for eight years; but if you complete ten years, it will be (a favour) from you. But I intend not to place you under a difficulty. If Allah wills, you will find me one of the righteous."

Yusuf Ali

He said: "I intend to wed one of these my daughters to thee, on condition that thou serve me for eight years; but if thou complete ten years, it will be (grace) from thee. But I intend not to place thee under a difficulty: thou wilt find me, indeed, if Allah wills, one of the righteous."

Deutsch

Er sagte: "Dies sei zwischen mir und dir (abgemacht). Welche der beiden Fristen ich auch erfülle, so darf es keine Bedrängnis gegen mich geben. Und Allah ist Sachwalter über das, was wir (hier) sagen."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

He [Musa (Moses)] said: "That (is settled) between me and you: whichever of the two terms I fulfil, there will be no injustice to me, and Allah is Surety over what we say."

Yusuf Ali

He said: "Be that (the agreement) between me and thee: whichever of the two terms I fulfil, let there be no ill - will to me. Be Allah a witness to what we say."

Deutsch

Als Musa die Frist erfüllt hatte und mit seinen Angehörigen fortzog, nahm er auf der Seite des Berges ein Feuer wahr. Er sagte zu seinen Angehörigen: "Bleibt hier. Ich habe ein Feuer wahrgenommen; vielleicht kann ich euch davon eine Nachricht oder ein Stück brennendes Holz aus dem Feuer bringen, auf daß ihr euch (daran) wärmen könnt."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

Then, when Musa (Moses) had fulfilled the term, and was travelling with his family, he saw a fire in the direction of Tur (Mount). He said to his family: "Wait, I have seen a fire; perhaps I may bring you from there some information, or a burning fire-brand that you may warm yourselves."

Yusuf Ali

Now when Moses had fulfilled the term, and was travelling with his family, he perceived a fire in the direction of Mount Tur. He said to his family: "Tarry ye; I perceive a fire; I hope to bring you from there some information, or a burning firebrand, that ye may warm yourselves."

Deutsch

Als er dort ankam, wurde ihm vom rechten Ufer des Tales im gesegneten Fleck (Land) aus dem Baum zugerufen: "O Musa, gewiß, Ich bin Allah, der Herr der Weltenbewohner."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

So when he reached it (the fire), he was called from the right side of the valley, in the blessed place, from the tree: "O Musa (Moses)! Verily I am Allah, the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinn and all that exists)!

Yusuf Ali

But when he came to the (fire), a voice was heard from the right bank of the valley, from a tree in hallowed ground: "O Moses! Verily I am Allah, the Lord of the Worlds....

Deutsch

Und: "Wirf deinen Stock hin." Doch als er sah, daß er sich hin und her bewegte, als wäre er eine flinke Schlange, kehrte er den Rücken und wandte sich nicht mehr um. - "O Musa, komm her und fürchte dich nicht, denn du sollst zu denjenigen gehören, die in Sicherheit sind.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

"And throw your stick!" But when he saw it moving as if it were a snake, he turned in flight, and looked not back. (It was said:) "O Musa (Moses)! Draw near, and fear not. Verily, you are of those who are secure.

Yusuf Ali

"Now do thou throw thy rod!" but when he saw it moving (of its own accord) as if it had been a snake, he turned back in retreat, and retraced not his steps: O Moses!" (It was said), "Draw near, and fear not: for thou art of those who are secure.

Deutsch

(Und) stecke die Hand in deinen Brustschlitz, so kommt sie weiß, jedoch nicht von Übel befallen, heraus. - Und zieh deinen Arm an dich gegen den Schreck. - Dies sind zwei Beweise von deinem Herrn, (gerichtet) an Fir'aun und seine führende Schar. Gewiß, sie sind ein Volk von Frevlern."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

"Put your hand in your bosom, it will come forth white without a disease; and draw your hand close to your side to be free from the fear (which you suffered from the snake, and also your hand will return to its original state). These are two Burhans (signs, miracles, evidence, proofs) from your Lord to Fir'aun (Pharaoh) and his chiefs. Verily, they are the people who are Fasiqun (rebellious, disobedient to Allah).

Yusuf Ali

"Move thy hand into thy bosom, and it will come forth white without stain (or harm), and draw thy hand close to thy side (to guard) against fear. Those are the two credentials from thy Lord to Pharaoh and his Chiefs: for truly they are a people rebellious and wicked."

Deutsch

Er sagte: "Mein Herr, ich habe eine (Menschen)seele von ihnen getötet, und so fürchte ich, daß sie mich töten.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

Yusuf Ali

He said: "O my Lord! I have slain a man among them, and I fear lest they slay me.

Deutsch

Auch hat mein Bruder Harun eine redegewandtere Zunge. So sende ihn mit mir zur Unterstützung, mich zu bestätigen, denn ich furchte, daß sie mich der Lüge bezichtigen."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

"And my brother Harun (Aaron) - he is more eloquent in speech than me: so send him with me as a helper to confirm me. Verily I fear that they will belie me."

Yusuf Ali

"And my brother Aaron - He is more eloquent in speech than I: so send him with me as a helper, to confirm (and strengthen) me: for I fear that they may accuse me of falsehood."

Er sagte: "Wir werden deinen Arm durch deinen Bruder festigen und euch beiden eine Ermächtigung erteilen, so daß sie nicht zu euch gelangen (können). Mit Unseren Zeichen werdet ihr und diejenigen, die euch folgen, Sieger sein."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

Allah said: "We will strengthen your arm through your brother, and give you both power, so they shall not be able to harm you: with Our Ayat (proofs, evidence, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.), you two as well as those who follow you will be the victors."

Yusuf Ali

He said: "We will certainly strengthen thy arm through thy brother, and invest you both with authority, so they shall not be able to touch you: with Our Sign shall ye triumph, - you two as well as those who follow you."

Als nun Musa mit Unseren Zeichen als klare Beweise kam, sagten sie: "Das ist nur ersonnene Zauberei. Und wir haben so etwas bei unseren Vorvätern nicht gehört."

Yusuf Ali

Moses said: "My Lord knows best who it is that comes with guidance from Him and whose end will be best in the Hereafter: certain it is that the wrong - doers will not prosper."

Und Fir'aun sagte: "O ihr führende Schar, keinen anderen Gott weiß ich für euch als mich (selbst). So entfache mir, o Haman, einen Brand auf Lehm, und mache mir einen Hochbau, auf daß ich zum Gott Musas emporsteige. Ich glaube fürwahr, daß er zu den Lügnern gehört."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

Fir'aun (Pharaoh) said: "O chiefs! I know not that you have an ilah (a god) other than me. So kindle for me (a fire), O Haman, to bake (bricks out of) clay, and set up for me a Sarh (a lofty tower, or palace) in order that I may look at (or look for) the Ilah (God) of Musa (Moses); and verily, I think that he [Musa (Moses)] is one of the liars."

Yusuf Ali

Pharaoh said: "O Chiefs! no god do I know for you but myself: therefore, O Haman! light me a (kiln to bake bricks) out of clay, and build me a lofty palace, that I may mount up to the god of Moses: but as far as I am concerned, I think (Moses) is a liar!"

So behold (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) what was the end of the Zalimun [wrong-doers, polytheists and those who disbelieved in the Oneness of their Lord (Allah), or rejected the advice of His Messenger Musa (Moses) عليه السلام].

Yusuf Ali

So We seized him and his hosts, and We flung them into the sea: Now behold what was the end of those who did wrong!

Wir aber ließen Geschlechter entstehen, und es war ihnen ein langes Leben beschieden. Und du hattest dich nicht unter den Leuten von Madyan niederge lassen, um ihnen Unsere Zeichen zu verlesen. Wir aber entsandten immer wieder (Propheten).

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

But We created generations [after generations i.e. after Musa (Moses) عليه السلام], and long were the ages that passed over them. And you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) were not a dweller among the people of Madyan (Midian), reciting Our Verses to them. But it is We Who kept sending (Messengers).

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) were not at the side of the Tur (Mount) when We did call: [it is said that Allah called the followers of Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم, and they answered His Call, or that Allah called Musa (Moses)].

(Hätten Wir dich nicht entsandt), würden sie sagen, wenn sie ein Unglück trifft wegen dessen, was ihre Hände vorausgeschickt haben: "Unser Herr, hättest Du doch einen Gesandten zu uns gesandt, so daß wir Deinen Zeichen hätten folgen können und zu den Gläubigen'hätten gehören können!"

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And if (We had) not (sent you to the people of Makkah) - in case a calamity should seize them for (the deeds) that their hands have sent forth, they would have said: "Our Lord! Why did You not send us a Messenger? We would then have followed Your Ayat (Verses of the Qur'an) and would have been among the believers."

Yusuf Ali

If (We had) not (sent thee to the Quraish), - in case a calamity should seize them for (the deeds) that their hands have sent forth, they might say: "Our Lord! why didst Thou not sent us a messenger? We should then have followed Thy Signs and been amongst those who believe!"

Als nun die Wahrheit von Uns her zu ihnen kam, sagten sie: "Wäre ihm doch das gleiche gegeben worden, was Musa gegeben wurde!" Haben sie denn nicht das verleugnet, was zuvor Musa gegeben wurde? Sie sagen: "Zwei Zauberwerke, die einander beistehen." Und sie sagen: "Wir verleugnen sie alle (beide)."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

But when the truth (i.e. Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم with his Message) has come to them from Us, they say: "Why is he not given the like of what was given to Musa (Moses)? Did they not disbelieve in that which was given to Musa (Moses) of old? They say: "Two kinds of magic [the Taurat (Torah) and the Qur'an], each helping the other!" And they say: "Verily in both we are disbelievers."

Yusuf Ali

But (now), when the Truth has come to them from Ourselves, they say, "Why are not (Signs) sent to him, like those which were sent to Moses?" Do they not then reject (the Signs) which were formerly sent to Moses? They say: "Two kinds of sorcery, each assisting the other!" And they say: "For us, we reject all (such things)!"

Deutsch

Sag: Bringt doch eine Schrift von Allah bei, die eine bessere Rechtleitung enthält als diese beiden, so will ich ihr folgen, wenn ihr wahrhaftig seid.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

Say (to them, O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم): "Then bring a Book from Allah, which is a better guide than these two [the Taurat (Torah) and the Qur'an], that I may follow it, if you are truthful."

Yusuf Ali

Say: "Then bring ye a Book from Allah, which is a better guide than either of them, that I may follow it! (do), if ye are truthful!"

Deutsch

Wenn sie nicht auf dich hören, so wisse, daß sie nur ihren Neigungen folgen. Und wer ist weiter abgeirrt als jemand, der seiner Neigung folgt ohne Rechtleitung von Allah. Gewiß, Allah leitet das ungerechte Volk nicht recht.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

But if they answer you not (i.e. do not bring the Book nor believe in your doctrine of Islamic Monotheism), then know that they only follow their own lusts. And who is more astray than one who follows his own lusts, without guidance from Allah? Verily Allah guides not the people who are Zalimun (wrong-doers, disobedient to Allah, and polytheists).

Yusuf Ali

But if they hearken not to thee, know that they only follow their own lusts: and who is more astray than one who follow his own lusts, devoid of guidance from Allah? for Allah guides not people given to wrong - doing.

Deutsch

Und Wir haben ihnen ja das Wort aufeinanderfolgend übermittelt, auf daß sie bedenken mögen.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And indeed now We have conveyed the Word (this Qur'an in which is the news of everything) to them, in order that they may remember (or receive admonition).

Yusuf Ali

Now have We caused the Word to reach them themselves, in order that they may receive admonition.

Deutsch

Diejenigen, denen Wir vor ihm die Schrift gaben, glauben an ihn.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

Those to whom We gave the Scripture [i.e. the Taurat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)] before it, they believe in it (the Qur'an).

Yusuf Ali

Those to whom We sent the Book before this, - they do believe in this (revelation):

Deutsch

Und wenn er ihnen verlesen wird, sagen sie: "Wir glauben an ihn. Gewiß, es ist die Wahrheit von unserem Herrn. Wir waren ja schon vor ihm (Allah) ergeben."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And when it is recited to them, they say: "We believe in it. Verily, it is the truth from our Lord. Indeed even before it we have been from those who submit themselves to Allah in Islam as Muslims (like 'Abdullah bin Salam and Salman Al-Farisi).

Yusuf Ali

And when it is recited to them, they say: "We believe therein, for it is the Truth from our Lord: indeed we have been Muslims (bowing to Allah's Will) from before this.

Deutsch

Diese erhalten ihren Lohn zweimal dafür, daß sie standhaft waren. Und sie wehren mit dem Guten das Böse ab und geben von dem aus, womit Wir sie versorgt haben.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

These will be given their reward twice over, because they are patient, and repel evil with good, and spend (in charity) out of what We have provided them.

Yusuf Ali

Twice will they be given their reward, for that they have persevered, that they avert Evil with Good, and that they spend (in charity) out of what We have given them.

Deutsch

Und wenn sie unbedachte Rede hören, wenden sie sich davon ab und sagen: "Wir haben unsere Taten und ihr habt eure Taten (zu verantworten). Friede sei auf euch! Wir trachten nicht nach (dem Umgang mit) den Toren."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And when they hear Al-Laghw (dirty, false, evil vain talk), they withdraw from it and say: "To us our deeds, and to you your deeds. Peace be to you. We seek not (the way of) the ignorant."

Yusuf Ali

And when they hear vain talk, they turn away therefrom and say: "To us our deeds, and to you yours; peace be to you: we seek not the ignorant."

Deutsch

Gewiß, du kannst nicht rechtleiten, wen du gern (rechtgeleitet sehen) möchtest. Allah aber leitet recht, wen Er will. Er kennt sehr wohl die Rechtgeleiteten.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

Verily you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) guide not whom you like, but Allah guides whom He wills. And He knows best those who are the guided.

Yusuf Ali

It is true thou wilt not be able to guide every one, whom thou lovest; but Allah guides those whom He will and He knows best those who receive guidance.

Deutsch

Und sie sagen: "Wenn wir der Rechtleitung mit dir folgen, werden wir von unserem Land fortgerissen." Haben Wir ihnen denn nicht eine feste Stellung in einem sicheren geschützten Bezirk verliehen, zu dem die Früchte jeder Art zusammengetragen werden als Versorgung von Uns aus? Aber die meisten von ihnen wissen nicht.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And they say: "If we follow the guidance with you, we would be snatched away from our land." Have We not established for them a secure sanctuary (Makkah), to which are brought fruits of all kinds, a provision from Ourselves, but most of them know not.

Yusuf Ali

They say: "If we were to follow the guidance with thee, we should be snatched away from our land." Have We not established for them a secure sanctuary, to which are brought as tribute fruits of all kinds, - a provision from Ourselves? but most of them understand not.

Deutsch

Und wie (so) manche Stadt, die sich übermütig ihres Lebensunterhaltes erfreute, haben Wir vernichtet! Da sind nun ihre Wohnorte, die nach ihnen nicht mehr bewohnt wurden, bis auf wenige. Und Wir sind es, die Erben (all dessen) geworden sind.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And how many a town (population) have We destroyed, which was thankless for its means of livelihood (disobeyed Allah, and His Messengers, by doing evil deeds and crimes)! And those are their dwellings, which have not been inhabited after them except a little. And verily! We have been the inheritors.

Yusuf Ali

And how many populations We destroyed, which exulted in their life (of ease and plenty)! now those habitations of theirs, after them, are deserted, - All but a (miserable) few! and We are their heirs!

Deutsch

Und dein Herr hätte nimmer die Städte vernichtet, bevor Er nicht in ihrem Mittelpunkt einen Gesandten hätte erstehen lassen, der ihnen Unsere Zeichen verliest. Und Wir hätten die Städte nimmer vernichtet, wenn ihre Bewohner nicht ungerecht gewesen wären.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And never will your Lord destroy the towns (populations) until He sends to their mother town a Messenger reciting to them Our Verses. And never would We destroy the towns unless the people thereof are Zalimun (polytheists, wrong-doers, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah, oppressors and tyrants).

Yusuf Ali

Nor was thy Lord the one to destroy a population until He had sent to its centre a messenger, rehearsing to them Our Signs; nor are We going to destroy a population except when its members practise iniquity.

Deutsch

Und was immer euch gegeben geworden ist, ist Genuß und Schmuck des diesseitigen Lebens. Was aber bei Allah ist, ist besser und beständiger. Begreift ihr denn nicht?

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And whatever you have been given is an enjoyment of the life of (this) world and its adornment, and that (Hereafter) which is with Allah is better and will remain forever. Have you then no sense?

Yusuf Ali

The (material) things which ye are given are but the conveniences of this life and the glitter thereof; but that which is with Allah is better and more enduring: will ye not then be wise?

Deutsch

Ist denn einer, dem Wir ein schönes Versprechen gegeben haben und der es auch vorfinden wird, einem gleich, den Wir den Genuß des diesseitigen Lebens genießen lassen, der hierauf aber am Tag der Auferstehung zu den Vorgeführten gehören wird?

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

Is he whom We have promised an excellent promise (Paradise) - which he will find true - like him whom We have made to enjoy the luxuries of the life of (this) world, then on the Day of Resurrection, he will be among those brought up (to be punished in the Hell-fire)?

Yusuf Ali

Are (these two) alike? - one to whom We have made a goodly promise, and who is going to reach its (fulfilment), and one to whom We have given the good things of this life, but who, on the Day of Judgment, is to be among those brought up (for punishment)?

Deutsch

Und am Tag, da Er ihnen zuruft und sagt: "Wo sind (nun) Meine Teilhaber, die ihr stets angegeben habt?"

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And (remember) the Day when He will call to them and say: "Where are My (so-called) partners whom you used to assert?"

Yusuf Ali

That Day (Allah) will call to them, and say "Where are my 'partners'? - whom ye imagined (to be such)?"

Deutsch

Diejenigen, gegen die sich das Wort bewahrheitet hat, sagen: "Unser Herr, diese, die wir in Verirrung haben fallen lassen, haben wir (nur) in Verirrung fallen lassen, wie wir selbst in Verirrung gefallen waren. (Von ihnen) sagen wir uns vor Dir los. Nicht uns dienten sie ja."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

Those about whom the Word will have come true (to be punished) will say: "Our Lord! These are they whom we led astray. We led them astray, as we were astray ourselves. We declare our innocence (from them) before You. It was not us they worshipped."

Yusuf Ali

Those against whom the charge will be proved, will say: "Our Lord! These are the ones whom we led astray: we led them astray, as we were astray ourselves: we free ourselves (from them) in Thy presence: it was not us they worshipped."

Deutsch

Und es wird gesagt werden: "Ruft eure Teilhaber." Sie werden sie anrufen, aber sie werden ihnen nicht antworten. Und sie werden die Strafe sehen. Wenn sie sich hätten rechtleiten lassen (, wären sie gerettet gewesen).

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And it will be said (to them): "Call upon your (so-called) partners (of Allah)", and they will call upon them, but they will give no answer to them, and they will see the torment. (They will then wish) if only they had been guided!

Yusuf Ali

It will be said (to them): "Call upon your 'partners' (for help)": they will call upon them, but they will not listen to them; and they will see the Penalty (before them); (how they will wish) 'if only they had been open to guidance!'

Deutsch

Und am Tag, da Er ihnen zurufen wird und sagt: "Was habt ihr den Gesandten geantwortet?"

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And (remember) the Day (Allah) will call to them, and say: "What answer gave you to the Messengers?"

Yusuf Ali

That Day (Allah) will call to them, and say: "What was the answer ye gave to the messengers?"

Deutsch

Ihren Blicken werden an jenem Tag die Beweise entzogen sein, und so fragen sie sich nicht mehr gegenseitig.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

Then the news of a good answer will be obscured to them on that day, and they will not be able to ask one another.

Yusuf Ali

Then the (whole) story that Day will seem obscure to them (like light to the blind) and they will not be able (even) to question each other.

Deutsch

Was aber jemanden angeht, der bereut und glaubt und rechtschaffen handelt, der wird vielleicht zu denjenigen gehören, denen es wohl ergeht.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

But as for him who repented (from polytheism and sins), believed (in the Oneness of Allah, and in His Messenger Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم), and did righteous deeds (in the life of this world), then he will be among those who are .

Yusuf Ali

But any that (in this life) had repented, believed, and worked righteousness, will have hopes to be among those who achieve salvation.

Deutsch

Und dein Herr erschafft, was Er will, und wählt. Ihnen aber steht es nicht zu, zu wählen. Preis sei Allah! Erhaben ist Er über das, was sie (Ihm) beigesellen.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And your Lord creates whatsoever He wills and chooses: no choice have they (in any matter). Glorified be Allah, and exalted above all that they associate (as partners with Him).

Yusuf Ali

Thy Lord does create and choose as He pleases: no choice have they (in the matter): Glory to Allah! and far is He above the partners they ascribe (to Him)!

Und dein Herr weiß, was ihre Brüste verhehlen und was sie offenlegen.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And your Lord knows what their breasts conceal, and what they reveal.

Yusuf Ali

And thy Lord knows all that their hearts conceal and all that they reveal.

Und Er ist Allah. Es gibt keinen Gott außer Ihm. (Alles) Lob gehört Ihm in der diesseitigen und in der jenseitigen Welt! Ihm gehört das Urteil, und zu Ihm werdet ihr zurückgebracht.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And He is Allah: La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), all praises and thanks be to Him (both) in the first (i.e. in this world) and in the last (i.e. in the Hereafter). And for Him is the Decision, and to Him shall you (all) be returned.

Yusuf Ali

And He is Allah: There is no god but He. To Him be praise, at the first and at the last: for Him is the Command, and to Him shall ye (all) be brought back.

Sag: Was meint ihr, wenn Allah auf euch die Nacht als Dauerzustand legen würde bis zum Tag der Auferstehung, wer wäre (dann) Gott außer Allah, Der euch Licht bringen würde? Wollt ihr denn nicht hören?

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

Say (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم): "Tell me! If Allah made the night continuous for you till the Day of Resurrection, which ilah (god) besides Allah could bring you light? Will you not then hear?"

Yusuf Ali

Say: See ye? If Allah were to make the night perpetual over you to the Day of Judgment, what god is there other than Allah, who can give you enlightenment? Will ye not then hearken?

Deutsch

Sag: Was meint ihr, wenn Allah auf euch den Tag als Dauerzustand legen würde bis zum Tag der Auferstehung, wer wäre (dann) Gott außer Allah, Der euch eine Nacht bringen würde, in der ihr ruht? Wollt ihr denn nicht einsichtig sein?

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

Say (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم): "Tell me! If Allah made the day continuous for you till the Day of Resurrection, which ilah (god) besides Allah could bring you night wherein you rest? Will you not then see?"

Yusuf Ali

Say: See ye? If Allah were to make the day perpetual over you to the Day of Judgment, what god is there other than Allah, who can give you a night in which ye can rest? Will ye not then see?

Deutsch

In Seiner Barmherzigkeit hat Er euch die Nacht und den Tag gemacht, damit ihr darin ruht und damit ihr (auch) nach etwas von Seiner Huld trachtet, und auf daß ihr dankbar sein möget.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

It is out of His Mercy that He has made for you the night and the day that you may rest therein (i.e. during the night) and that you may seek of His Bounty (i.e. during the day) - and in order that you may be grateful.

Yusuf Ali

It is out of His Mercy that He has made for you Night and Day, - that ye may rest therein, and that ye may seek of his Grace; - and in order that ye may be grateful.

Und am Tag, da Er ihnen zurufen wird und dann sagt: "Wo sind denn Meine Teilhaber, die ihr stets angegeben habt?"

The Day that He will call on them, He will say: "Where are my 'partners'? whom ye imagined (to be such)?"

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And We shall take out from every nation a witness, and We shall say: "Bring your proof." Then they shall know that the truth is with Allah (Alone), and the lies (false gods) which they invented will disappear from them.

Yusuf Ali

And from each people shall We draw a witness, and We shall say: "Produce your Proof": then shall they know that the Truth is in Allah (alone), and the (lies) which they invented will leave them in lurch.

Deutsch

Gewiß, Qarun gehörte zum Volk Musas, doch unterdrückte er sie. Und Wir gaben ihm solche Schätze, daß deren Schlüssel wahrlich eine schwere Last für eine (ganze) Schar kräftiger Männer gewesen wären. Als sein Volk zu ihm sagte: "Sei nicht (übermütig) froh, denn Allah liebt nicht diejenigen (Unterdrücker), die (zu übermütig) froh sind,

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

Verily, Qarun (Korah) was of Musa's (Moses) people, but he behaved arrogantly towards them. And We gave him of the treasures, that of which the keys would have been a burden to a body of strong men. Remember when his people said to him: "Do not exult (with riches, being ungrateful to Allah). Verily Allah likes not those who exult (with riches, being ungrateful to Allah).

Yusuf Ali

Qarun was doubtless, of the people of Moses; but he acted insolently towards them: such were the treasures We had bestowed on him that their very keys would have been a burden to a body of strong men, behold, his people said to him: "Exult not, for Allah loveth not those who exult (in riches).

Deutsch

sondern trachte mit dem, was Allah dir gegeben hat, nach der jenseitigen Wohnstätte, vergiß aber auch nicht deinen Anteil am Diesseits. Und tu Gutes, so wie Allah dir Gutes getan hat. Und trachte nicht nach Unheil auf der Erde, denn Allah liebt nicht die Unheilstifter."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

"But seek, with that (wealth) which Allah has bestowed on you, the home of the Hereafter, and forget not your portion of lawful enjoyment in this world; and do good as Allah has been good to you, and seek not mischief in the land. Verily, Allah likes not the Mufsidun (those who commit great crimes and sins, oppressors, tyrants, mischief-makers, corrupters)."

Yusuf Ali

"But seek, with the (wealth) which Allah has bestowed on thee, the Home of the Hereafter, nor forget thy portion in this world: but do thou good, as Allah has been good to thee, and seek not (occasions for) mischief in the land: for Allah loves not those who do mischief."

Deutsch

Er sagte: "Es ist mir nur gegeben worden aufgrund von Wissen, das ich besitze." Wußte er denn nicht, daß Allah bereits vor ihm solche Geschlechter vernichtet hatte, die eine stärkere Kraft als er besaßen und eine größere Ansammlung (an Helfern) hatten? Und die Übeltäter werden nicht nach ihren Sünden befragt.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

He said: "This has been given to me only because of the knowledge I possess." Did he not know that Allah had destroyed before him generations, men who were stronger than him in might and greater in the amount (of riches) they had collected? But the Mujrimun (criminals, disbelievers, polytheists, sinners) will not be questioned of their sins (because Allah knows them well, so they will be punished without being called to account).

Yusuf Ali

He said: "This has been given to me because of a certain knowledge which I have." Did he not know that Allah had destroyed, before him, (whole) generations, - which were superior to him in strength and greater in the amount (of riches) they had collected? but the wicked are not called (immediately) to account for their sins.

Deutsch

Und so trat er zu seinem Volk in seinem Schmuck heraus. Diejenigen, die das diesseitige Leben begehrten, sagten: "O hätten doch (auch) wir das gleiche wie das, was Qarun gegeben worden ist! Er hat wahrlich gewaltiges Glück."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

So he went forth before his people in his pomp. Those who were desirous of the life of the world, said: "Ah, would that we had the like of what Qarun (Korah) has been given! Verily he is the owner of a great fortune."

Yusuf Ali

So he went forth among his people in the (pride of his wordly) glitter. Said those whose aim is the Life of this World: "Oh! that we had the like of what Qarun has got! for he is truly a lord of mighty good fortune!"

Deutsch

Aber diejenigen, denen das Wissen gegeben worden war, sagten: "Wehe euch! Allahs Belohnung ist besser für jemanden, der glaubt und rechtschaffen handelt." Aber es wird nur den Standhaften dargeboten.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

But those who had been given (religious) knowledge said: "Woe to you! The Reward of Allah (in the Hereafter) is better for those who believe and do righteous good deeds, and this none shall attain except those who are As-Sabirun (the patient in following the truth)."

Yusuf Ali

But those who had been granted (true) knowledge said: "Alas for you! The reward of Allah (in the Hereafter) is best for those who believe and work righteousness: but this none shall attain, save those who steadfastly persevere (in good)."

Deutsch

Da ließen Wir mit ihm und mit seiner Wohnstätte die Erde versinken. Und da hatte er weder eine Schar, die ihm vor Allah half, noch konnte er sich selbst helfen.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

So We caused the earth to swallow him and his dwelling place. Then he had no group or party to help him against Allah, nor was he one of those who could save themselves.

Yusuf Ali

Then We caused the earth to swallow up him and his house; and he had not (the least little) party to help him against Allah, nor could he defend himself.

Deutsch

Und diejenigen, die sich am Tag zuvor (an) seine(r) Stelle (zu sein) gewünscht hatten, begannen zu sagen: "Ah sieh! Allah gewährt die Versorgung großzügig, wem von Seinen Dienern Er will, und bemißt auch. Wenn Allah uns nicht eine Wohltat erwiesen hätte, hätte Er uns wahrlich (auch) versinken lassen. Ah sieh! Den Ungläubigen wird es nicht wohl ergehen."

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And those who had desired (for a position like) his position the day before, began to say: "Know you not that it is Allah Who enlarges the provision or restricts it to whomsoever He pleases of His slaves. Had it not been that Allah was Gracious to us, He could have caused the earth to swallow us up (also)! Know you not that the disbelievers will never be .

Yusuf Ali

And those who had envied his position the day before began to say on the morrow: "Ah! it is indeed Allah Who enlarges the provision or restricts it, to any of His servants He pleases! had it not been that Allah was gracious to us, He could have caused the earth to swallow us up! Ah! those who reject Allah will assuredly never prosper."

Deutsch

Das ist die jenseitige Wohnstätte. Wir bestimmen sie für diejenigen, die weder Überheblichkeit auf der Erde noch Unheil begehren. Und das (gute) Ende gehört den Gottesfürchtigen.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

That home of the Hereafter (i.e. Paradise), We shall assign to those who rebel not against the truth with pride and oppression in the land nor do mischief by committing crimes. And the good end is for the Muttaqun (the pious - See V.2:2).

Yusuf Ali

That Home of the Hereafter We shall give to those who intend not high - handedness or mischief on earth: and the end is (best) for the righteous.

Deutsch

Wer mit einer guten Tat kommt, für den wird es etwas Besseres als sie geben. Wer aber mit einer bösen Tat kommt, so wird denjenigen, die böse Taten begehen, nur das vergolten, was sie zu tun pflegten.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

Whosoever brings good (Islamic Monotheism along with righteous deeds), he shall have the better thereof; and whosoever brings evil (polytheism along with evil deeds), then those who do evil deeds will only be requited for what they used to do.

Yusuf Ali

If any does good, the reward to him is better than his deed; but if any does evil, the doers of evil are only punished (to the extent) of their deeds.

Deutsch

Derjenige, Der dir den Qur'an verpflichtend gemacht hat, wird dich sicher zu einem Ort der Wiederkehr zurückkehren lassen. Sag: Mein Herr weiß besser, wer die Rechtleitung bringt und wer sich in deutlichem Irrtum befindet.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

Verily, He Who has given you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) the Qur'an (i.e. ordered you to act on its laws and to preach it to others) will surely bring you back to Ma'ad (place of return, either to Makkah or to Paradise after your death). Say (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم): "My Lord is Aware of him who brings guidance, and of him who is in manifest error."

Yusuf Ali

Verily He Who ordained the Qur'an for thee, will bring thee back to the Place of Return. Say: "My Lord knows best who it is that brings true guidance, and who is in manifest error."

Deutsch

Und du hattest nicht erwartet, daß das Buch an dich gerichtet würde. Es ist nur aus Barmherzigkeit von deinem Herrn. Darum leiste den Ungläubigen ja keinen Beistand.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And you were not expecting that the Book (this Qur'an) would be sent down to you, but it is a mercy from your Lord. So never be a supporter of the disbelievers.

Yusuf Ali

And thou hadst not expected that the Book would be sent to thee except as a Mercy from thy Lord: Therefore lend not thou support in any way to those who reject (Allah's Message).

Deutsch

Und lasse sie dich nur nicht von den Zeichen Allahs abhalten, nachdem sie nun zu dir herabgesandt worden sind. Und rufe zu deinem Herrn, und gehöre ja nicht zu den Götzendienern.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And let them not turn you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) away from (preaching) the Ayat (revelations and verses) of Allah after they have been sent down to you: and invite (men) to (believe in) your Lord and be not of Al-Mushrikun (those who associate partners with Allah, e.g. polytheists, pagans, idolaters, and those who disbelieve in the Oneness of Allah and deny the Prophethood of Messenger Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم).

Yusuf Ali

And let nothing keep thee back from the Signs of Allah after they have been revealed to thee: and invite (men) to thy Lord, and be not of the company of those who join gods with Allah.

Deutsch

Und rufe neben Allah keinen anderen Gott an. Es gibt keinen Gott außer Ihm. Alles wird untergehen - außer Seinem Angesicht. Ihm gehört das Urteil, und zu Ihm werdet ihr zurückgebracht.

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

And invoke not any other ilah (god) along with Allah: La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He). Everything will perish save His Face. His is the Decision, and to Him you (all) shall be returned.

Yusuf Ali

And call not, besides Allah, on another god. There is no god but He. Everything (that exists) will perish except His own Face. To Him belongs the Command, and to Him will ye (all) be brought back.
