Word by word
Yusuf Ali
O ye who believe! fulfil (all) obligations. Lawful unto you (for food) are all four - footed animals, with the exceptions named: But animals of the chase are forbidden while ye are in the sacred precincts or in pilgrim garb: for Allah doth command according to His will and plan.
Deutsch
O die ihr glaubt, haltet die Abmachungen! Erlaubt (zu essen) sind euch die Vierfüßler unter dem Vieh, außer dem, was euch verlesen wird, ohne daß ihr jedoch das Jagdwild als erlaubt betrachtet, während ihr im Zustand der Pilgerweihe seid. Allah ordnet an, was Er will.
Shakir
O you who believe! fulfill the obligations. The cattle quadrupeds are allowed to you except that which is recited to you, not violating the prohibition against game when you are entering upon the performance of the pilgrimage; surely Allah orders what He desires.
O ye who believe! Violate not the sanctity of the symbols of Allah, nor of the sacred month, nor of the animals brought for sacrifice, nor the garlands that mark out such animals, nor the people resorting to the sacred house, seeking of the bounty and good pleasure of their Lord. But when ye are clear of the sacred precincts and of pilgrim garb, ye may hunt and let not the hatred of some people in (once) shutting you out of the Sacred Mosque lead you to transgression (and hostility on your part). Help ye one another in righteousness and piety, but help ye not one another in sin and rancour: fear Allah: for Allah is strict in punishment.
Deutsch
O die ihr glaubt, entweiht nicht die Kultzeichen Allahs, noch den Schutzmonat, noch die Opfertiere, noch die Halsgehänge, noch die, die das geschützte Haus aufsuchen, indem sie nach Huld von ihrem Herrn trachten und nach Wohlgefallen. - Wenn ihr den Weihezustand abgelegt habt, dann dürft ihr jagen. - Und der Haß, den ihr gegen (bestimmte) Leute hegt, weil sie euch von der geschützten Gebetsstätte abgehalten haben, soll euch ja nicht dazu bringen zu übertreten. Helft einander zur Güte und Gottesfurcht, aber helft einander nicht zur Sünde und feindseligem Vorgehen, und fürchtet Allah! Allah ist streng im Bestrafen.
Shakir
O you who believe! do not violate the signs appointed by Allah nor the sacred month, nor (interfere with) the offerings, nor the sacrificial animals with garlands, nor those going to the sacred house seeking the grace and pleasure of their Lord; and when you are free from the obligations of the pilgrimage, then hunt, and let not hatred of a people - - because they hindered you from the Sacred Masjid - - incite you to exceed the limits, and help one another in goodness and piety, and do not help one another in sin and aggression; and be careful of (your duty to) Allah; surely Allah is severe in requiting (evil).
Forbidden to you (for food) are: dead meat, blood, the flesh of swine, and that on which hath been invoked the name of other than Allah; that which hath been killed by strangling, or by a violent blow, or by a headlong fall, or by being gored to death; that which hath been (partly) eaten by a wild animal; unless ye are able to slaughter it (in due form); that which is sacrificed on stone (altars); (forbidden) also is the division (of meat) by raffling with arrows: that is impiety. This day have those who reject faith given up all hope of your religion: yet fear them not but fear Me. This day have I perfected your religion for you, completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion. But if any is forced by hunger, with no inclination to transgression, Allah is indeed Oft - forgiving, Most Merciful.
Deutsch
Verboten ist euch (der Genuß von) Verendetem, Blut, Schweinefleisch und dem, worüber ein anderer (Name) als Allah(s) angerufen worden ist, und (der Genuß von) Ersticktem, Erschlagenem, zu Tode Gestürztem oder Gestoßenem, und was von einem wilden Tier gerissen worden ist - außer dem, was ihr schlachtet - und (verboten ist euch,) was auf einem Opferstein geschlachtet worden ist, und mit Pfeilen zu losen. Das ist Frevel. - Heute haben diejenigen, die ungläubig sind, hinsichtlich eurer Religion die Hoffnung aufgegeben. So fürchtet nicht sie, sondern fürchtet Mich! Heute habe Ich euch eure Religion vervollkommnet und Meine Gunst an euch vollendet, und Ich bin mit dem Islam als Religion für euch zufrieden. - Und wer sich aus Hunger in einer Zwangslage befindet, ohne zu einer Sünde hinzuneigen, so ist Allah Allvergebend und Barmherzig.
Shakir
Forbidden to you is that which dies of itself, and blood, and flesh of swine, and that on which any other name than that of Allah has been invoked, and the strangled (animal) and that beaten to death, and that killed by a fall and that killed by being smitten with the horn, and that which wild beasts have eaten, except what you slaughter, and what is sacrificed on stones set up (for idols) and that you divide by the arrows; that is a transgression. This day have those who disbelieve despaired of your religion, so fear them not, and fear Me. This day have I perfected for you your religion and completed My favor on you and chosen for you Islam as a religion; but whoever is compelled by hunger, not inclining willfully to sin, then surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
They ask thee what is lawful to them (as food). Say: lawful unto you are (all) things good and pure: and what ye have taught your trained hunting animals (to catch) in the manner directed to you by Allah: eat what they catch for you, but pronounce the name of Allah over it: and fear Allah; for Allah is swift in taking account.
Deutsch
Sie fragen dich, was ihnen erlaubt ist. Sag: Erlaubt sind euch die guten Dinge. Und wenn ihr beutegreifende Tiere durch Abrichtung von dem gelehrt habt, was Allah euch gelehrt hat, dann eßt von dem, was sie für euch fassen, und sprecht den Namen Allahs darüber aus. Und fürchtet Allah. Allah ist schnell im Abrechnen.
Shakir
They ask you as to what is allowed to them. Say: The good things are allowed to you, and what you have taught the beasts and birds of prey, training them to hunt - - you teach them of what Allah has taught you - - so eat of that which they catch for you and mention the name of Allah over it; and be careful of (your duty to) Allah; surely Allah is swift in reckoning.
This day are (all) things good and pure made lawful unto you. The food of the People of the Book is lawful unto you and yours is lawful unto them. (Lawful unto you in marriage) are (not only) chaste women who are believers, but chaste women among the People of the Book, revealed before your time, - when ye give them their due dowers, and desire chastity, not lewdness, nor secret intrigues if any one rejects faith, fruitless is his work, and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (all spiritual good).
Deutsch
Heute sind euch die guten Dinge erlaubt. Und die Speise derjenigen, denen die Schrift gegeben wurde, ist euch erlaubt, und eure Speise ist ihnen erlaubt. Und die Ehrbaren von den gläubigen Frauen und die ehrbaren Frauen von denjenigen, denen vor euch die Schrift gegeben wurde, wenn ihr ihnen ihren Lohn gebt, als ehrbare Ehemänner, nicht als solche, die Hurerei treiben und sich Liebschaften halten. Wer den Glauben verleugnet, dessen Werk wird hinfällig, und im Jenseits gehört er zu den Verlierern.
Shakir
This day (all) the good things are allowed to you; and the food of those who have been given the Book is lawful for you and your food is lawful for them; and the chaste from among the believing women and the chaste from among those who have been given the Book before you (are lawful for you); when you have given them their dowries, taking (them) in marriage, not fornicating nor taking them for paramours in secret; and whoever denies faith, his work indeed is of no account, and in the hereafter he shall be one of the losers.
O ye who believe! when ye prepare for prayer, wash your faces, and your hands (and arms) to the elbows; Rub your heads (with water); and (wash) your feet to the ankles. If ye are in a state of ceremonial impurity, bathe your whole body. But if ye are ill, or on a journey, or one of you cometh from offices of nature, or ye have been in contact with women, and ye find no water, then take for yourselves clean sand or earth, and rub therewith your faces and hands, Allah doth not wish to place you in a difficulty, but to make you clean, and to complete his favour to you, that ye may be grateful.
Deutsch
O die ihr glaubt, wenn ihr euch zum Gebet aufstellt, dann wascht euch das Gesicht und die Hände bis zu den Ellbogen und streicht euch über den Kopf und (wascht euch) die Füße bis zu den Knöcheln. Und wenn ihr im Zustand der Unreinheit seid, dann reinigt euch. Und wenn ihr krank seid oder auf einer Reise oder jemand von euch vom Abort kommt oder ihr Frauen berührt habt und dann kein Wasser findet, so wendet euch dem guten Erdboden zu und streicht euch damit über das Gesicht und die Hände. Allah will euch keine Bedrängnis auferlegen, sondern Er will euch reinigen und Seine Gunst an euch vollenden, auf daß ihr dankbar sein möget.
Shakir
O you who believe! when you rise up to prayer, wash your faces and your hands as far as the elbows, and wipe your heads and your feet to the ankles; and if you are under an obligation to perform a total ablution, then wash (yourselves) and if you are sick or on a journey, or one of you come from the privy, or you have touched the women, and you cannot find water, betake yourselves to pure earth and wipe your faces and your hands therewith, Allah does not desire to put on you any difficulty, but He wishes to purify you and that He may complete His favor on you, so that you may be grateful.
And call in remembrance the favour of Allah unto you, and His covenant, which He ratified with you, when ye said: "We hear and we obey": And fear Allah, for Allah knoweth well the secrets of your hearts.
Deutsch
Und gedenkt Allahs Gunst an euch und des Abkommens, das Er mit euch getroffen hat, als ihr sagtet: "Wir hören und gehorchen!" Und fürchtet Allah. Gewiß, Allah weiß über das Innerste der Brüste Bescheid.
Shakir
And remember the favor of Allah on you and His covenant with which He bound you firmly, when you said: We have heard and we obey, and be careful of (your duty to) Allah, surely Allah knows what is in the breasts.
O ye who believe! stand out firmly for Allah, as witnesses to fair dealing, and let not the hatred of others to you make you swerve to wrong and depart from justice. Be just: that is next to piety: and fear Allah. For Allah is well - acquainted with all that ye do.
Deutsch
O die ihr glaubt, seid Wahrer (der Sache) Allahs als Zeugen für die Gerechtigkeit. Und der Haß, den ihr gegen (bestimmte) Leute hegt, soll euch ja nicht dazu bringen, daß ihr nicht gerecht handelt. Handelt gerecht. Das kommt der Gottesfurcht näher. Und fürchtet Allah. Gewiß, Allah ist Kundig dessen, was ihr tut.
Shakir
O you who believe! Be upright for Allah, bearers of witness with justice, and let not hatred of a people incite you not to act equitably; act equitably, that is nearer to piety, and he careful of (your duty to) Allah; surely Allah is Aware of what you do.
O ye who believe! Call in remembrance the favour of Allah unto you when certain men formed the design to stretch out their hands against you, but (Allah) held back their hands from you: so fear Allah. And on Allah let believers put (all) their trust.
Deutsch
O ihr, die ihr glaubt, gedenkt Allahs Gunst an euch, (damals) als (gewisse) Leute vorhatten, ihre Hände nach euch auszustrecken, worauf Er ihre Hände von euch zurückhielt. Und fürchtet Allah. Und auf Allah sollen sich die Gläubigen verlassen.
Shakir
O you who believe! remember Allah's favor on you when a people had determined to stretch forth their hands towards you, but He withheld their hands from you, and be careful of (your duty to) Allah; and on Allah let the believers rely.
Allah did aforetime take a covenant from the Children of Israel, and we appointed twelve captains among them. And Allah said: "I am with you: if ye (but) establish regular prayers, practise regular charity, believe in my messengers, honour and assist them, and loan to Allah a beautiful loan, verily I will wipe out from you your evils, and admit you to gardens with rivers flowing beneath; but if any of you, after this, resisteth faith, he hath truly wandered from the path or rectitude."
Deutsch
Allah hatte ja mit den Kinder Isra'ils ein Abkommen getroffen. Und Wir beriefen von ihnen zwölf Obmänner. Und Allah sagte: "Ich bin mit euch. Wenn ihr das Gebet verrichtet, die Abgabe entrichtet, an Meine Gesandten glaubt und ihnen beisteht und Allah ein gutes Darlehen gebt, werde Ich euch ganz gewiß eure bösen Taten tilgen und euch ganz gewiß in Gärten eingehen lassen, durcheilt von Bächen. Wer aber von euch danach ungläubig wird, der ist wirklich vom rechten Weg abgeirrt."
Shakir
And certainly Allah made a covenant with the children of Israel, and We raised up among them twelve chieftains; and Allah said: Surely I am with you; if you keep up prayer and pay the poor - rate and believe in My apostles and assist them and offer to Allah a goodly gift, I will most certainly cover your evil deeds, and I will most certainly cause you to enter into gardens beneath which rivers flow, but whoever disbelieves from among you after that, he indeed shall lose the right way.
But because of their breach of their covenant, We cursed them, and made their hearts grow hard; they change the words from their (right) places and forget a good part of the message that was sent them, nor wilt thou cease to find them - barring a few - ever bent on (new) deceits: but forgive them, and overlook (their misdeeds): for Allah loveth those who are kind.
Deutsch
Dafür, daß sie ihr Abkommen brachen, haben Wir sie verflucht und ihre Herzen hart gemacht. Sie verdrehen den Sinn der Worte, und sie haben einen Teil von dem vergessen, womit sie ermahnt worden waren. Und du wirst immer wieder Verrat von ihnen erfahren - bis auf wenige von ihnen. Aber verzeihe ihnen und übe Nachsicht. Gewiß, Allah liebt die Gutes Tuenden.
Shakir
But on account of their breaking their covenant We cursed them and made their hearts hard; they altered the words from their places and they neglected a portion of what they were reminded of; and you shall always discover treachery in them excepting a few of them; so pardon them and turn away; surely Allah loves those who do good (to others).
From those, too, who call themselves Christians, We did take a covenant, but they forgot a good part of the message that was sent them: so we estranged them, with enmity and hatred between the one and the other, to the day of judgment. And soon will Allah show them what it is they have done.
Deutsch
Und (auch) mit denen, die sagen: "Wir sind Christen'" haben Wir ihr Abkommen getroffen. Aber dann vergaßen sie einen Teil von dem, womit sie ermahnt worden waren. So erregten Wir unter ihnen Feindschaft und Haß bis zum Tag der Auferstehung. Und Allah wird ihnen kundtun, was sie zu machen pflegten.
Shakir
And with those who say, We are Christians, We made a covenant, but they neglected a portion of what they were reminded of, therefore We excited among them enmity and hatred to the day of resurrection; and Allah will inform them of what they did.
O people of the Book! There hath come to you our Messenger, revealing to you much that ye used to hide in the Book, and passing over much (that is now unnecessary): There hath come to you from Allah a (new) light and a perspicuous Book, -
Deutsch

In blasphemy indeed are those that say that Allah is Christ the son of Mary. Say: "Who then hath the least power against Allah, if His will were to destroy Christ the son of Mary, his mother, and all every - one that is on the earth? For to Allah belongeth the dominion of the heavens and the earth, and all that is between. He createth what He pleaseth. For Allah hath power over all things."
Deutsch
Ungläubig sind ja diejenigen, die sagen: "Allah ist ja al-Masih, der Sohn Maryams". Sag: Wer vermag denn gegen Allah etwas (auszurichten), wenn Er alMasih, den Sohn Maryams, seine Mutter und all diejenigen, die auf der Erde sind, vernichten will? Allah gehört die Herrschaft der Himmel und der Erde und dessen, was dazwischen ist. Er erschafft, was Er will. Und Allah hat zu allem die Macht.
Shakir
Certainly they disbelieve who say: Surely, Allah - - He is the Messiah, son of Marium.

(Both) the Jews and the Christians say: "We are sons of Allah, and his beloved." Say: "Why then doth He punish you for your sins?

Deutsch
Die Juden und Christen sagen: "Wir sind Allahs Söhne und Seine Lieblinge." Sag: Warum bestraft Er euch dann für eure Sünden? Nein! Vielmehr seid ihr menschliche Wesen von denen, die Er erschaffen hat. Er vergibt, wem Er will, und Er straft, wen Er will. Und Allah gehört die Herrschaft der Himmel und der Erde und dessen, was dazwischen ist, und zu Ihm ist der Ausgang.
Shakir
And the Jews and the Christians say: We are the sons of Allah and His beloved ones. Say: Why does He then chastise you for your faults? Nay, you are mortals from among those whom He has created, He forgives whom He pleases and chastises whom He pleases; and Allah's is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth and what is between them, and to Him is the eventual coming.
O People of the Book! Now hath come unto you, making (things) clear unto you, Our Messenger, after the break in (the series of) our messengers, lest ye should say: "There came unto us no bringer of glad tidings and no warner (from evil)": But now hath come unto you a bringer of glad tidings and a warner (from evil). And Allah hath power over all things.
Deutsch
O Leute der Schrift, Unser Gesandter ist nunmehr zu euch gekommen, um euch nach einer Unterbrechungszeit (in der Reihe) der Gesandten Klarheit zu geben, damit ihr (nicht etwa) sagt: "Zu uns ist kein Frohbote und kein Warner gekommen." Nun ist ja ein Frohbote und ein Warner zu euch gekommen. Und Allah hat zu allem die Macht.
Shakir
O followers of the Book! indeed Our Apostle has come to you explaining to you after a cessation of the (mission of the) apostles, lest you say: There came not to us a giver of good news or a warner, so indeed there has come to you a giver of good news and a warner; and Allah has power over all things.
Remember Moses said to his people: "O my people! Call in remembrance the favour of Allah unto you, when He produced prophets among you, made you kings, and gave you what He had not given to any other among the peoples.

Recite to them the truth of the story of the two sons of Adam. Behold! they each presented a sacrifice (to Allah): It was accepted from one, but not from the other. Said the latter: "Be sure I will slay thee.""Surely," said the former, "Allah doth accept of the sacrifice of those who are righteous.
Deutsch
Und verlies ihnen die Kunde von den beiden Söhnen Adams, der Wahrheit entsprechend, als sie ein Opfer darbrachten. Da wurde es von dem einen von ihnen angenommen, während es vom anderen nicht angenommen wurde. Der sagte: "Ich werde dich ganz gewiß töten." Der andere sagte: "Allah nimmt nur von den Gottesfürchtigen an.

"If thou dost stretch thy hand against me, to slay me, it is not for me to stretch my hand against thee to slay thee: for I do fear Allah, the cherisher of the worlds.

Then Allah sent a raven, who scratched the ground, to show him how to hide the shame of his brother. "Woe is me!" said he; "Was I not even able to be as this raven, and to hide the shame of my brother?" then he became full of regrets -
Deutsch
Da schickte Allah einen Raben, der in der Erde scharrte, um ihm zu zeigen, wie er die böse Tat an seinem Bruder verbergen könne. Er sagte: "O wehe mir! War ich unfähig, zu sein wie dieser Rabe und die böse Tat an meinem Bruder zu verbergen?" So wurde er von denjenigen, die bereuen.

Then Allah sent a crow digging up the earth so that he might show him how he should cover the dead body of his brother. He said: Woe me! do I lack the strength that I should be like this crow and cover the dead body of my brother? So he became of those who regret.
On that account: We ordained for the Children of Israel that if any one slew a person - unless it be for murder or for spreading mischief in the land - it would be as if he slew the whole people: and if any one saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of the whole people. Then although there came to them Our messengers with clear signs, yet, even after that, many of them continued to commit excesses in the land.
Deutsch
Aus diesem Grunde haben Wir den Kindern Isra'ils vorgeschrieben: Wer ein menschliches Wesen tötet, ohne (daß es) einen Mord (begangen) oder auf der Erde Unheil gestiftet (hat), so ist es, als ob er alle Menschen getötet hätte. Und wer es am Leben erhält, so ist es', als ob er alle Menschen am Leben erhält. Unsere Gesandten sind bereits mit klaren Beweisen zu ihnen gekommen. Danach aber sind viele von ihnen wahrlich maßlos auf der Erde geblieben.
Shakir
For this reason did We prescribe to the children of Israel that whoever slays a soul, unless it be for manslaughter or for mischief in the land, it is as though he slew all men; and whoever keeps it alive, it is as though he kept alive all men; and certainly Our apostles came to them with clear arguments, but even after that many of them certainly act extravagantly in the land.
The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger, and strive with might and main for mischief through the land is: execution, or crucifixion, or the cutting off of hands and feet from opposite sides, or exile from the land: that is their disgrace in this world, and a heavy punishment is theirs in the Hereafter;
Deutsch
Der Lohn derjenigen, die Krieg führen gegen Allah und Seinen Gesandten und sich bemühen, auf der Erde Unheil zu stiften, ist indessen (der), daß sie allesamt getötet oder gekreuzigt werden, oder daß ihnen Hände und Füße wechselseitig abgehackt werden, oder daß sie aus dem Land verbannt werden. Das ist für sie eine Schande im Diesseits, und im Jenseits gibt es für sie gewaltige Strafe,
Shakir
The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His apostle and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides or they should be imprisoned; this shall be as a disgrace for them in this world, and in the hereafter they shall have a grievous chastisement,
As to those who reject Faith, - if they had everything on earth, and twice repeated, to give as ransom for the penalty of the Day of Judgment, it would never be accepted of them, theirs would be a grievous penalty.
Deutsch
Gewiß, wenn diejenigen, die ungläubig sind, alles hätten, was auf der Erde ist, und noch einmal das Gleiche dazu, um sich damit von der Strafe des Tages der Auferstehung loszukaufen, würde es nicht von ihnen angenommen werden, und für sie gibt es schmerzhafte Strafe.
Shakir
Surely (as for) those who disbelieve, even if they had what is in the earth, all of it, and the like of it with it, that they might ransom themselves with it from the punishment of the day of resurrection, it shall not be accepted from them, and they shall have a painful punishment.
As to the thief, Male or female, cut off his or her hands: a punishment by way of example, from Allah, for their crime: and Allah is Exalted in power.
Deutsch
Der Dieb und die Diebin: trennt ihnen ihre Hände ab als Lohn für das, was sie begangen haben, und als ein warnendes Beispiel von Allah. Allah ist Allmächtig und Allweise.
Shakir
And (as for) the man who steals and the woman who steals, cut off their hands as a punishment for what they have earned, an exemplary punishment from Allah; and Allah is Mighty, Wise.
Knowest thou not that to Allah (alone) belongeth the dominion of the heavens and the earth? He punisheth whom He pleaseth, and He forgiveth whom He pleaseth: and Allah hath power over all things.
Deutsch
Weißt du nicht, daß Allah die Herrschaft über die Himmel und die Erde gehört? Er straft, wen Er will, und vergibt, wem Er will. Und Allah hat zu allem die Macht.
Shakir
Do you not know that Allah - - His is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth; He chastises whom He pleases; and forgives whom He pleases and Allah has power over all things.
O Messenger! let not those grieve thee, who race each other into unbelief: (whether it be) among those who say "We believe" with their lips but whose hearts have no faith; or it be among the Jews, - men who will listen to any lie, - will listen even to others who have never so much as come to thee. They change the words from their (right) times and places: they say, "If ye are given this, take it, but if not, beware!" If any one's trial is intended by Allah, thou hast no authority in the least for him against Allah. For such - it is not Allah's will to purify their hearts. For them there is disgrace in this world, and in the Hereafter a heavy punishment.
Deutsch
O du Gesandter, lasse dich nicht durch jene traurig machen, die im Unglauben dahineilen, unter denen, die mit ihren Mündern sagen: "Wir glauben", während ihre Herzen nicht glauben, Und unter denjenigen, die dem Judentum angehören, unter ihnen gibt es manche, die auf Lügen horchen, die auf andere Leute horchen, die nicht zu dir gekommen sind. Sie verdrehen den Sinn der Worte, nach(dem sie an) ihrer (richtigen) Stelle (waren), und sagen: "Wenn euch dies gegeben wird, dann nehmt es an. Wenn euch dies aber nicht gegeben wird, dann seht euch vor." Wen Allah der Versuchung aussetzen will, für den wirst du gegen Allah nichts (auszurichten) vermögen. Das sind diejenigen, deren Herzen Allah nicht rein machen wollte. Schande gibt es für sie im Diesseits, und im Jenseits gibt es für sie gewaltige Strafe;
Shakir
O Apostle! let not those grieve you who strive together in hastening to unbelief from among those who say with their mouths: We believe, and their hearts do not believe, and from among those who are Jews; they are listeners for the sake of a lie, listeners for another people who have not come to you; they alter the words from their places, saying: If you are given this, take it, and if you are not given this, be cautious; and as for him whose temptation Allah desires, you cannot control anything for him with Allah. Those are they for whom Allah does not desire that He should purify their hearts; they shall have disgrace in this world, and they shall have a grievous chastisement in the hereafter.
(They are fond of) listening to falsehood, of devouring anything forbidden. If they do come to thee, either judge between them, or decline to interfere. If thou decline, they cannot hurt thee in the least. If thou judge, judge in equity between them. For Allah loveth those who judge in equity.
Deutsch
(sie), die auf Lügen horchen, und die darauf aus sind, unrechtmäßig Erworbenes zu verschlingen. Wenn sie zu dir kommen, so richte zwischen ihnen oder wende dich von ihnen ab! Wenn du dich von ihnen abwendest, werden sie dir keinen Schaden zufügen, wenn du aber richtest, dann richte zwischen ihnen in Gerechtigkeit. Gewiß, Allah liebt die Gerechten.
Shakir
(They are) listeners of a lie, devourers of what is forbidden; therefore if they come to you, judge between them or turn aside from them, and if you turn aside from them, they shall not harm you in any way; and if you judge, judge between them with equity; surely Allah loves those who judge equitably.
But why do they come to thee for decision, when they have (their own) law before them? - therein is the (plain) command of Allah; yet even after that, they would turn away. For they are not (really) People of Faith.
Deutsch
Wie aber können sie dich richten lassen, während sie doch die Tora haben, in der das Urteil Allahs (enthalten) ist, und sich hierauf, nach alledem, abkehren? Diese sind doch keine Gläubigen.
Shakir
And how do they make you a judge and they have the Taurat wherein is Allah's judgment? Yet they turn back after that, and these are not the believers.
It was We who revealed the law (to Moses): therein was guidance and light. By its standard have been judged the Jews, by the prophets who bowed (as in Islam) to Allah's will, by the rabbis and the doctors of law: for to them was entrusted the protection of Allah's book, and they were witnesses thereto: therefore fear not men, but fear me, and sell not my signs for a miserable price. If any do fail to judge by (the light of) what Allah hath revealed, they are (no better than) Unbelievers.
Deutsch
Gewiß, Wir haben die Tora hinabgesandt, in der Rechtleitung und Licht sind, womit die Propheten, die sich (Allah) ergeben hatten, für diejenigen, die dem Judentum angehören, walten, und so auch die Leute des Herrn und die Gelehrten, nach dem, was ihnen von der Schrift Allahs anvertraut worden war und worüber sie Zeugen waren. So fürchtet nicht die Menschen, sondern fürchtet Mich. Und verkauft Meine Zeichen nicht für einen geringen Preis! Wer nicht nach dem waltet, was Allah (als Offenbarung) herabgesandt hat, das sind die Ungläubigen.
Shakir
Surely We revealed the Taurat in which was guidance and light; with it the prophets who submitted themselves (to Allah) judged (matters) for those who were Jews, and the masters of Divine knowledge and the doctors, because they were required to guard (part) of the Book of Allah, and they were witnesses thereof; therefore fear not the people and fear Me, and do not take a small price for My communications; and whoever did not judge by what Allah revealed, those are they that are the unbelievers.
We ordained therein for them: "Life for life, eye for eye, nose or nose, ear for ear, tooth for tooth, and wounds equal for equal." But if any one remits the retaliation by way of charity, it is an act of atonement for himself. And if any fail to judge by (the light of) what Allah hath revealed, they are (No better than) wrong - doers.
Deutsch
Und Wir haben ihnen darin vorgeschrieben: Leben um Leben, Auge um Auge, Nase um Nase, Ohr um Ohr, Zahn um Zahn; und (auch) für Verwundungen Wiedervergeltung. Wer es aber als Almosen erläßt, für den ist es eine Sühne. Wer nicht nach dem waltet, was Allah (als Offenbarung) herabgesandt hat, das sind die Ungerechten.
Shakir
And We prescribed to them in it that life is for life, and eye for eye, and nose for nose, and ear for ear, and tooth for tooth, and (that there is) reprisal in wounds; but he who foregoes it, it shall be an expiation for him; and whoever did not judge by what Allah revealed, those are they that are the unjust.
And in their footsteps We sent Jesus the son of Mary, confirming the Law that had come before him: We sent him the Gospel: therein was guidance and light, and confirmation of the Law that had come before him: a guidance and an admonition to those who fear Allah.
Deutsch
Und Wir ließen auf ihren Spuren 'Isa, den Sohn Maryams, folgen, das zu bestätigen, was von der Tora vor ihm (offenbart) war; und Wir gaben ihm das Evangelium, in dem Rechtleitung und Licht sind, und das zu bestätigen, was von der Tora vor ihm (offenbart) war, und als Rechtleitung und Ermahnung für die Gottesfürchtigen.
Shakir
And We sent after them in their footsteps Isa, son of Marium, verifying what was before him of the Taurat and We gave him the Injeel in which was guidance and light, and verifying what was before it of Taurat and a guidance and an admonition for those who guard (against evil).
Let the people of the Gospel judge by what Allah hath revealed therein. If any do fail to judge by (the light of) what Allah hath revealed, they are (no better than) those who rebel.
Deutsch
Und so sollen die Leute des Evangeliums nach dem walten, was Allah darin herabgesandt hat. Wer nicht nach dem waltet, was Allah (als Offenbarung) herabgesandt hat, das sind die Frevler.
Shakir
And the followers of the Injeel should have judged by what Allah revealed in it; and whoever did not judge by what Allah revealed, those are they that are the transgressors.
To thee We sent the Scripture in truth, confirming the scripture that came before it, and guarding it in safety: so judge between them by what Allah hath revealed, and follow not their vain desires, diverging from the Truth that hath come to thee. To each among you have we prescribed a law and an open way. If Allah had so willed, He would have made you a single people, but (His plan is) to test you in what He hath given you: so strive as in a race in all virtues. The goal of you all is to Allah; it is He that will show you the truth of the matters in which ye dispute;
Deutsch
Und Wir haben zu dir das Buch mit der Wahrheit hinabgesandt, das zu bestätigen, was von dem Buch vor ihm (offenbart) war, und als Wächter darüber. So richte zwischen ihnen nach dem, was Allah (als Offenbarung) herabgesandt hat, und folge nicht ihren Neigungen entgegen dem, was dir von der Wahrheit zugekommen ist. Für jeden von euch haben Wir ein Gesetz und einen deutlichen Weg festgelegt. Und wenn Allah wollte, hätte Er euch wahrlich zu einer einzigen Gemeinschaft gemacht. Aber (es ist so,) damit Er euch in dem, was Er euch gegeben hat? prüfe. So wetteifert nach den guten Dingen! Zu Allah wird euer aller Rückkehr sein, und dann wird Er euch kundtun, worüber ihr uneinig zu sein pflegtet.
Shakir
And We have revealed to you the Book with the truth, verifying what is before it of the Book and a guardian over it, therefore judge between them by what Allah has revealed, and do not follow their low desires (to turn away) from the truth that has come to you; for every one of you did We appoint a law and a way, and if Allah had pleased He would have made you (all) a single people, but that He might try you in what He gave you, therefore strive with one another to hasten to virtuous deeds; to Allah is your return, of all (of you), so He will let you know that in which you differed;
And this (He commands): Judge thou between them by what Allah hath revealed, and follow not their vain desires, but beware of them lest they beguile thee from any of that (teaching) which Allah hath sent down to thee. And if they turn away, be assured that for some of their crime it is Allah's purpose to punish them. And truly most men are rebellious.
Deutsch
Und so richte zwischen ihnen nach dem, was Allah (als Offenbarung) herabgesandt hat, und folge nicht ihren Neigungen, sondern sieh dich vor ihnen vor, daß sie dich nicht der Versuchung aussetzen (abzuweichen) von einem Teil dessen, was Allah zu dir (als Offenbarung) herabgesandt hat! Doch wenn sie sich abkehren, so wisse, daß Allah sie für einen Teil ihrer Sünden treffen will. Viele von den Menschen sind fürwahr Frevler.
Shakir
And that you should judge between them by what Allah has revealed, and do not follow their low desires, and be cautious of them, lest they seduce you from part of what Allah has revealed to you; but if they turn back, then know that Allah desires to afflict them on account of some of their faults; and most surely many of the people are transgressors.
O ye who believe! take not the Jews and the Christians for your friends and protectors: They are but friends and protectors to each other. And he amongst you that turns to them (for friendship) is of them. Verily Allah guideth not a people unjust.
Deutsch
O die ihr glaubt, nehmt nicht die Juden und die Christen zu Schutzherren! Sie sind einer des anderen Schutzherren. Und wer von euch sie zu Schutzherren nimmt, der gehört zu ihnen. Gewiß, Allah leitet das ungerechte Volk nicht recht.
Shakir
O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people.
Those in whose hearts is a disease - thou seest how eagerly they run about amongst them, saying: "We do fear lest a change of fortune bring us disaster." Ah! perhaps Allah will give (thee) victory, or a decision according to His will. Then will they repent of the thoughts which they secretly harboured in their hearts.
Deutsch
Und so siehst du diejenigen, in deren Herzen Krankheit ist, sich ihretwegen beeilen; sie sagen: "Wir fürchten, daß uns eine Schicksalswendung treffen wird." Aber vielleicht wird Allah den entscheidenden Sieg oder eine Anordnung von Ihm herbeibringen. Dann werden sie über das, was sie in ihrem Innersten geheimgehalten haben, Reue empfinden.
Shakir
But you will see those in whose hearts is a disease hastening towards them, saying: We fear lest a calamity should befall us; but it may be that Allah will bring the victory or a punishment from Himself, so that they shall be regretting on account of what they hid in their souls.
And those who believe will say: "Are these the men who swore their strongest oaths by Allah, that they were with you?" All that they do will be in vain, and they will fall into (nothing but) ruin.

Und diejenigen, die glauben, werden sagen: "Sind dies diejenigen, die bei Allah ihren kräftigsten Eid schworen, daß sie wahrlich mit euch seien?" Ihre Werke sind hinfallig, so daß sie (nun) Verlierer geworden sind.
Shakir
And those who believe will say: Are these they who swore by Allah with the most forcible of their oaths that they were most surely with you? Their deeds shall go for nothing, so they shall become losers.
O ye who believe! if any from among you turn back from his Faith, soon will Allah produce a people whom He will love as they will love Him, - lowly with the believers, mighty against the rejecters, fighting in the way of Allah, and never afraid of the reproaches of such as find fault. That is the grace of Allah, which He will bestow on whom He pleaseth. And Allah encompasseth all, and He knoweth all things.
Deutsch
O die ihr glaubt, wer von euch sich von seiner Religion abkehrt -, so wird Allah Leute bringen, die Er liebt und die Ihn lieben, bescheiden gegenüber den Gläubigen, mächtig (auftretend) gegenüber den Ungläubigen, und die sich auf Allahs Weg abmühen und nicht den Tadel des Tadlers fürchten. Das ist Allahs Huld, die Er gewährt, wem Er will. Allah ist Allumfassend und Allwissend.
Shakir
O you who believe! whoever from among you turns back from his religion, then Allah will bring a people, He shall love them and they shall love Him, lowly before the believers, mighty against the unbelievers, they shall strive hard in Allah's way and shall not fear the censure of any censurer; this is Allah's Face, He gives it to whom He pleases, and Allah is Ample - giving, Knowing.
Your (real) friends are (no less than) Allah, His Messenger, and the (fellowship of) believers, - those who establish regular prayers and regular charity, and they bow down humbly (in worship).
Deutsch
Euer Schutzherr ist (allein) Allah und (auch) Sein Gesandter und diejenigen, die glauben, die das Gebet verrichten, die Abgabe entrichten und zu den sich Verbeugenden gehören.
Shakir
Only Allah is your Vali and His Apostle and those who believe, those who keep up prayers and pay the poor - rate while they bow.
As to those who turn (for friendship) to Allah, His Messenger, and the (fellowship of) believers, - it is the fellowship of Allah that must certainly triumph.
Deutsch
Wer sich Allah zum Schutzherrn nimmt und (auch) Seinen Gesandten und diejenigen, die glauben, - gewiß, die Anhängerschaft Allahs wird der Sieger sein.
Shakir
And whoever takes Allah and His apostle and those who believe for a guardian, then surely the party of Allah are they that shall be triumphant.
O ye who believe! take not for friends and protectors those who take your religion for a mockery or sport, - whether among those who received the Scripture before you, or among those who reject Faith; but fear ye Allah, if ye have faith (indeed).
Deutsch
O die ihr glaubt, nehmt nicht diejenigen, die sich über eure Religion lustig machen und sie zum Gegenstand des Spiels nehmen, von denjenigen, denen vor euch die Schrift gegeben wurde, und die Ungläubigen zu Schutzherren. Und fürchtet Allah, wenn ihr gläubig seid!
Shakir
O you who believe! do not take for guardians those who take your religion for a mockery and a joke, from among those who were given the Book before you and the unbelievers; and be careful of (your duty to) Allah if you are believers.
Say: "O people of the Book! Do ye disapprove of us for no other reason than that we believe in Allah, and the revelation that hath come to us and that which came before (us), and (perhaps) that most of you are rebellious and disobedient?"
Deutsch

Say: "Shall I point out to you something much worse than this, (as judged) by the treatment it received from Allah? those who incurred the curse of Allah and His wrath, those of whom some He transformed into apes and swine, those who worshipped evil; - these are (many times) worse in rank, and far more astray from the even path!"
Deutsch
Sag: Soll ich euch kundtun, was als Belohnung bei Allah (noch) schlechter ist? Diejenigen, die Allah verflucht hat und denen Er zürnt und aus denen Er Affen und Schweine gemacht hat und die falschen Göttern dienen. Diese befinden sich in einer (noch) schlechteren Lage und sind (noch) weiter vom rechten Weg abgeirrt.
Shakir
Say: Shall I inform you of (him who is) worse than this in retribution from Allah? (Worse is he) whom Allah has cursed and brought His wrath upon, and of whom He made apes and swine, and he who served the Shaitan; these are worse in place and more erring from the straight path.
When they come to thee, they say: "We believe": but in fact they enter with a mind against Faith, and they go out with the same but Allah knoweth fully all that they hide.
Deutsch
Wenn sie zu euch kommen, sagen sie: "Wir glauben", wo sie schon mit Unglauben (behaftet) eintreten und auch noch mit ihm (behaftet wieder) herausgehen. Doch Allah weiß sehr wohl, was sie verbergen.

And when they come to you, they say: We believe; and indeed they come in with unbelief and indeed they go forth with it; and Allah knows best what they concealed.
Many of them dost thou see, racing each other in sin and rancour, and their eating of things forbidden. Evil indeed are the things that they do.
Deutsch
Und du siehst viele von ihnen in Sünde, feindseligem Vorgehen und dem Verschlingen von unrechtmäßig Erworbenem dahineilen. Fürwahr, wie schlimm ist, was sie tun!
Shakir
And you will see many of them striving with one another to hasten in sin and exceeding the limits, and their eating of what is unlawfully acquired; certainly evil is that which they do.
Why do not the rabbis and the doctors of Law forbid them from their (habit of) uttering sinful words and eating things forbidden? Evil indeed are their works.

Warum verbieten ihnen nicht die Leute des Herrn und die Gelehrten die sündhaften Worte und das Verschlingen von unrechtmäßig Erworbenem? Fürwahr, wie schlimm ist, was sie machen!
Shakir
Why do not the learned men and the doctors of law prohibit them from their speaking of what is sinful and their eating of what is unlawfully acquired? Certainly evil is that which they work.
The Jews say: "Allah's hand is tied up." Be their hands tied up and be they accursed for the (blasphemy) they utter. Nay, both His hands are widely outstretched: He giveth and spendeth (of His bounty) as He pleaseth. But the revelation that cometh to thee from Allah increaseth in most of them their obstinate rebellion and blasphemy. Amongst them we have placed enmity and hatred till the Day of Judgment. Every time they kindle the fire of war, Allah doth extinguish it; but they (ever) strive to do mischief on earth. And Allah loveth not those who do mischief.
Deutsch
Und die Juden sagen: "Allahs Hand ist gefesselt." Ihre (eigenen) Hände seien gefesselt und sie seien verflucht für das, was sie sagen. Nein! Vielmehr sind Seine Hände (weit) ausgestreckt; Er gibt aus, wie Er will. Was zu dir (als Offenbarung) von deinem Herrn herabgesandt worden ist, wird sicherlich bei vielen von ihnen die Auflehnung und den Unglauben noch mehren. Und Wir haben unter ihnen Feindschaft und Haß erregt bis zum Tag der Auferstehung. Jedesmal, wenn sie ein Feuer zum Krieg anzünden, löscht Allah es aus. Und sie bemühen sich, auf der Erde Unheil zu stiften. Aber Allah liebt nicht die Unheilstifter.
Shakir
And the Jews say: The hand of Allah is tied up! Their hands shall be shackled and they shall be cursed for what they say. Nay, both His hands are spread out, He expends as He pleases; and what has been revealed to you from your Lord will certainly make many of them increase in inordinacy and unbelief; and We have put enmity and hatred among them till the day of resurrection; whenever they kindle a fire for war Allah puts it out, and they strive to make mischief in the land; and Allah does not love the mischief - makers.
If only the People of the Book had believed and been righteous, We should indeed have blotted out their iniquities and admitted them to gardens of bliss.

If only they had stood fast by the Law, the Gospel, and all the revelation that was sent to them from their Lord, they would have enjoyed happiness from every side. There is from among them a party on the right course: but many of them follow a course that is evil.
Deutsch
Wenn sie nur die Tora und das Evangelium und das befolgten, was zu ihnen (als Offenbarung) von ihrem Herrn herabgesandt wurde, würden sie fürwahr von (den guten Dingen) über ihnen und unter ihren Füßen essen. Unter ihnen ist eine gemäßigte Gemeinschaft; aber wie böse ist bei vielen von ihnen, was sie tun.
Shakir
And if they had kept up the Taurat and the Injeel and that which was revealed to them from their Lord, they would certainly have eaten from above them and from beneath their feet there is a party of them keeping to the moderate course, and (as for) most of them, evil is that which they do
O Messenger! proclaim the (message) which hath been sent to thee from thy Lord. If thou didst not, thou wouldst not have fulfilled and proclaimed His mission. And Allah will defend thee from men (who mean mischief). For Allah guideth not those who reject Faith.
Deutsch
O du Gesandter, übermittele, was zu dir (als Offenbarung) von deinem Herrn herabgesandt worden ist! Wenn du es nicht tust, so hast du Seine Botschaft nicht übermittelt. Allah wird dich vor den Menschen schützen. Gewiß, Allah leitet das ungläubige Volk nicht recht.

Say: "O People of the Book! ye have no ground to stand upon unless ye stand fast by the Law, the Gospel, and all the revelation that has come to you from your Lord." It is the revelation that cometh to thee from thy Lord, that increaseth in most of them their obstinate rebellion and blasphemy. But sorrow thou not over (these) people without Faith.
Deutsch
Sag: O Leute der Schrift, ihr fußt auf nichts, bis ihr die Tora und das Evangelium und das befolgt, was zu euch (als Offenbarung) von eurem Herrn herabgesandt worden ist. Was zu dir (als Offenbarung) von deinem Herrn herabgesandt worden ist, wird ganz gewiß bei vielen von ihnen die Auflehnung und den Unglauben noch mehren. So sei nicht betrübt über das ungläubige Volk!
Shakir
Say: O followers of the Book! you follow no good till you keep up the Taurat and the Injeel and that which is revealed to you from your Lord; and surely that which has been revealed to you from your Lord shall make many of them increase in inordinacy and unbelief; grieve not therefore for the unbelieving people.

We took the covenant of the Children of Israel and sent them messengers, every time, there came to them a messenger with what they themselves desired not - some (of these) they called impostors, and some they (go so far as to) slay.
Deutsch
Und Wir trafen doch schon mit den Kindern Isra'ils ein Abkommen und sandten zu ihnen Gesandte. Jedesmal, wenn ein Gesandter zu ihnen kam mit etwas, wozu sie selbst nicht neigten, bezichtigten sie einen Teil (der Gesandten) der Lüge und töteten einen (anderen) Teil.
Shakir
Certainly We made a covenant with the children of Israel and We sent to them apostles; whenever there came to them an apostle with what that their souls did not desire, some (of them) did they call liars and some they slew.
They thought there would be no trial (or punishment); so they became blind and deaf; yet Allah (in mercy) turned to them; yet again many of them became blind and deaf. But Allah sees well all that they do.
Deutsch
Und sie meinten, daß es keine Versuchung gäbe. Sie waren blind und taub. Hierauf nahm Allah ihre Reue an. Dann aber wurden (wieder) viele von ihnen blind und taub. Und Allah sieht wohl, was sie tun.

They do blaspheme who say: "Allah is Christ the son of Mary." But said Christ: "O Children of Israel! worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord." Whoever joins other gods with Allah, - Allah will forbid him the garden, and the Fire will be his abode. There will for the wrong - doers be no one to help.
Deutsch
Fürwahr, ungläubig sind diejenigen, die sagen: "Gewiß, Allah ist al-Masih, der Sohn Maryams", wo doch al-Masih (selbst) gesagt hat: "O Kinder Isra'ils, dient Allah, meinem Herrn und eurem Herrn!"

Shakir
Certainly they disbelieve who say: Surely Allah, He is the Messiah, son of Marium; and the Messiah said: O Children of Israel! serve Allah, my Lord and your Lord. Surely whoever associates (others) with Allah, then Allah has forbidden to him the garden, and his abode is the fire; and there shall be no helpers for the unjust.
They do blaspheme who say: Allah is one of three in a Trinity: for there is no god except One Allah. If they desist not from their word (of blasphemy), verily a grievous penalty will befall the blasphemers among them.

Shakir
Certainly they disbelieve who say: Surely Allah is the third (person) of the three; and there is no god but the one Allah, and if they desist not from what they say, a painful chastisement shall befall those among them who disbelieve.
Christ the son of Mary was no more than a messenger; many were the messengers that passed away before him. His mother was a woman of truth. They had both to eat their (daily) food. See how Allah doth make His signs clear to them; yet see in what ways they are deluded away from the truth!
Deutsch
Al-Masih, der Sohn Maryams, war doch nur ein Gesandter, vor dem bereits Gesandte vorübergegangen waren. Und seine Mutter war sehr wahrheitsliebend; sie (beide) pflegten Speise zu essen. Schau, wie Wir ihnen die Zeichen klar machen, und schau, wie sie sich abwendig machen lassen!

Strongest among men in enmity to the believers wilt thou find the Jews and Pagans; and nearest among them in love to the believers wilt thou find those who say, "We are Christians": because amongst these are men devoted to learning and men who have renounced the world, and they are not arrogant.
Deutsch
Du wirst ganz gewiß finden, daß diejenigen Menschen, die den Gläubigen am heftigsten Feindschaft zeigen, die Juden und diejenigen sind, die (Allah etwas) beigesellen. Und du wirst ganz gewiß finden, daß diejenigen, die den Gläubigen in Freundschaft am nächsten stehen, die sind, die sagen: "Wir sind Christen." Dies, weil es unter ihnen Priester und Mönche gibt und weil sie sich nicht hochmütig verhalten.
Shakir
Certainly you will find the most violent of people in enmity for those who believe (to be) the Jews and those who are polytheists, and you will certainly find the nearest in friendship to those who believe (to be) those who say: We are Christians; this is because there are priests and monks among them and because they do not behave proudly.

Allah will not call you to account for what is futile in your oaths, but He will call you to account for your deliberate oaths: for expiation, feed ten indigent persons, on a scale of the average for the food of your families; or clothe them; or give a slave his freedom. If that is beyond your means, fast for three days. That is the expiation for the oaths ye have sworn. But keep to your oaths. Thus doth Allah make clear to you His signs, that ye may be grateful.
Deutsch
Allah wird euch nicht für etwas Unbedachtes in euren Eiden belangen. Jedoch wird Er euch für das belangen, was ihr mit euren Eiden fest abmacht (und dieses dann nicht einhaltet). Die Sühne dafür besteht in der Speisung von zehn Armen in dem Maß, wie ihr eure Angehörigen im Durchschnitt speist, oder ihrer Bekleidung oder der Befreiung eines Sklaven. Wer aber keine (Möglichkeit) findet, (der hat) drei Tage (zu) fasten. Das ist die Sühne für eure Eide, wenn ihr schwört. Und erfüllt eure Eide. So macht Allah euch Seine Zeichen klar, auf daß ihr dankbar sein möget!

Thus does Allah make clear to you His communications, that you may be Fateful.

If ye doubt (their truth), detain them both after prayer, and let them both swear by Allah: "We wish not in this for any worldly gain, even though the (beneficiary) be our near relation: we shall hide not the evidence before Allah: if we do, then behold! the sin be upon us!"
Deutsch
O die ihr glaubt, wenn einem von euch der Tod naht zu der Zeit, da (er sein) Vermächtnis (macht), (soll) das Zeugnis unter euch (erfolgen) durch zwei gerechte Personen von euch, oder durch zwei andere, (die) nicht von euch (sind), wenn ihr im Land umherreist und euch dann das Unglück des Todes trifft. Ihr sollt sie nach dem Gebet festhalten, und sie sollen dann, wenn ihr zweifelt, bei Allah schwören: "Wir verkaufen es für keinen Preis, auch wenn es sich um einen Verwandten handelt, und verheimlichen das Zeugnis Allahs nicht; wir gehörten sonst wahrlich zu den Sündhaften."

O you who believe! call to witness between you when death draws nigh to one of you, at the time of making the will, two just persons from among you, or two others from among others than you, if you are travelling in the land and the calamity of death befalls you; the two (witnesses) you should detain after the prayer; then if you doubt (them), they shall both swear by Allah, (saying): We will not take for it a price, though there be a relative, and we will not hide the testimony of Allah for then certainly we should be among the sinners.
But if it gets known that these two were guilty of the sin (of perjury), let two others stand forth in their places, - nearest in kin from among those who claim a lawful right: let them swear by Allah: "We affirm that our witness is truer than that of those two, and that we have not trespassed (beyond the truth): if we did, behold! the wrong be upon us!"

That is most suitable: that they may give the evidence in its true nature and shape, or else they would fear that other oaths would be taken after their oaths. But fear Allah, and listen (to His counsel): for Allah guideth not a rebellious people:
Deutsch
