- Sura: 2 - al-Baqara (The Cow) Ayat: 83
وَإِذْ أَخَذْنَا مِيثَاقَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ لَا تَعْبُدُونَ إِلَّا اللَّهَ وَبِالْوَالِدَيْنِ إِحْسَانًا وَذِي الْقُرْبَىٰ وَالْيَتَامَىٰ وَالْمَسَاكِينِ وَقُولُوا لِلنَّاسِ حُسْنًا وَأَقِيمُوا الصَّلَاةَ وَآتُوا الزَّكَاةَ ثُمَّ تَوَلَّيْتُمْ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا مِنْكُمْ وَأَنْتُمْ مُعْرِضُونَ (83
اس وقت کو یاد کرو جب ہم نے بنی اسرائیل سے عہد لیا کہ خبردار خدا کے علاوہ کسی کی عبادت نہ کرنا اور ماں باپ ، قرابتداروں ، یتیموں اور مسکینوں کے ساتھ اچھا برتاؤ کرنا. لوگوں سے اچھی باتیں کرنا ، نماز قائم کرنا ، زکوٰۃ ادا کرنا لیکن اس کے بعد تم میں سے چند کے علاوہ سب منحرف ہو گئے اور تم لوگ تو بس اعراض کرنے والے ہی ہو
[YOUSAF ALI] And remember We took a covenant from the Children of Israel (to this effect): Worship none but Allah; treat with kindness your parents and kindred, and orphans and those in need; speak fair to the people; be steadfast in prayer; and practise regular charity. Then did ye turn back, except a few among you, and ye backslide (even now).
[ PICKTHAL ] And (remember) when We made a covenant with the Children of Israel, (saying): Worship none save Allah (only), and be good to parents and to kindred and to orphans and the needy, and speak kindly to mankind; and establish worship and pay the poor-due. Then, after that, ye slid back, save a few of you, being averse.
[ SHAKIR ] And when We made a covenant with the children of Israel: You shall not serve any but Allah and (you shall do) good to (your) parents, and to the near of kin and to the orphans and the needy, and you shall speak to men good words and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate. Then you turned back except a few of you and (now too) you turn aside.
- Sura: 4 - an-Nisaa' (The Women) Ayat: 86
وَإِذَا حُيِّيتُمْ بِتَحِيَّةٍ فَحَيُّوا بِأَحْسَنَ مِنْهَا أَوْ رُدُّوهَا ۗ إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ حَسِيبًا (86
اور جب تم لوگوں کو کوئی تحفہ(سلام) پیش کیا جائے تو اس سے بہتر یا کم سے کم ویسا ہی واپس کرو کہ بیشک اللہ ہر شے کا حساب کرنے والا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] When a (courteous) greeting is offered you, meet it with a greeting still more courteous, or (at least) of equal courtesy. Allah takes careful account of all things.
[ PICKTHAL ] When ye are greeted with a greeting, greet ye with a better than it or return it. Lo! Allah taketh count of all things.
[ SHAKIR ] And when you are greeted with a greeting, greet with a better (greeting) than it or return it; surely Allah takes account of all things.
- Sura: 5 - al-Maaida (The Table) Ayat: 2
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تُحِلُّوا شَعَائِرَ اللَّهِ وَلَا الشَّهْرَ الْحَرَامَ وَلَا الْهَدْيَ وَلَا الْقَلَائِدَ وَلَا آمِّينَ الْبَيْتَ الْحَرَامَ يَبْتَغُونَ فَضْلًا مِنْ رَبِّهِمْ وَرِضْوَانًا ۚ وَإِذَا حَلَلْتُمْ فَاصْطَادُوا ۚ وَلَا يَجْرِمَنَّكُمْ شَنَآنُ قَوْمٍ أَنْ صَدُّوكُمْ عَنِ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ أَنْ تَعْتَدُوا ۘ وَتَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْبِرِّ وَالتَّقْوَىٰ ۖ وَلَا تَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْإِثْمِ وَالْعُدْوَانِ ۚ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ ۖ إِنَّ اللَّهَ شَدِيدُ الْعِقَابِ (2
ایمان والو !خبردار خدا کی نشانیوں کی حرمت کو ضائع نہ کرنا اور نہ محترم مہینے. قربانی کے جانور اور جن جانوروں کے گلے میں پٹےّ باندھ دیئے گئے ہیں اور جو لوگ خانہ خدا کا ارادہ کرنے والے ہیں اور فرض پروردگار اور رضائے الٰہی کے طلبگار ہیں ان کی حرمت کی خلاف ورزی کرنا اور جب احرام ختم ہوجائے تو شکار کرو اور خبردار کسی قوم کی عداوت فقط اس بات پر کہ اس نے تمہیں مسجدالحرام سے روک دیا ہے تمہیں ظلم پر آمادہ نہ کردے --نیکی اور تقویٰ پر ایک دوسرے کی مدد کرو اور گناہ اور تعدّی پر آپس میں تعاون نہ کرنا اور اللہ سے ڈرتے رہنا کہ اس کا عذاب بہت سخت ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] 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.
[ PICKTHAL ] O ye who believe! Profane not Allah's monuments nor the Sacred Month nor the offerings nor the garlands, nor those repairing to the Sacred House, seeking the grace and pleasure of their Lord. But when ye have left the sacred territory, then go hunting (if ye will). And let not your hatred of a folk who (once) stopped your going to the inviolable place of worship seduce you to transgress; but help ye one another unto righteousness and pious duty. Help not one another unto sin and transgression, but keep your duty to Allah. Lo! Allah is severe in punishment.
[ 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).
- Sura: 6 - al-An`aam (The Cattle) Ayat: 54
وَإِذَا جَاءَكَ الَّذِينَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِآيَاتِنَا فَقُلْ سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ ۖ كَتَبَ رَبُّكُمْ عَلَىٰ نَفْسِهِ الرَّحْمَةَ ۖ أَنَّهُ مَنْ عَمِلَ مِنْكُمْ سُوءًا بِجَهَالَةٍ ثُمَّ تَابَ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ وَأَصْلَحَ فَأَنَّهُ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ (54
اور جب آپ کے پاس وہ لوگ آئیں جو ہماری آیتوں پر ایمان رکھتے ہیں تو ان سے کہئے السلام علیکم ...._ تمہارے پروردگار نے اپنے اوپر رحمت لازم قرر دے لی ہے کہ تم میں جو بھی ازروئے جہالت برائی کرے گا اور اس کے بعد توبہ کرکے اپنی اصلاح کرلے گا تو خدا بہت زیادہ بخشنے والا اور مہربان ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] When those come to thee who believe in Our signs, Say: "Peace be on you: Your Lord hath inscribed for Himself (the rule of) mercy: verily, if any of you did evil in ignorance, and thereafter repented, and amend (his conduct), lo! He is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.
[ PICKTHAL ] And when those who believe in Our revelations come unto thee, say: Peace be unto you! Your Lord hath prescribed for Himself mercy, that whoso of you doeth evil through ignorance and repenteth afterward thereof and doeth right, (for him) lo! He is Forgiving, Merciful.
[ SHAKIR ] And when those who believe in Our communications come to you, say: Peace be on you, your Lord has ordained mercy on Himself, (so) that if any one of you does evil in ignorance, then turns after that and acts aright, then He is Forgiving, Merciful.
- Sura: 9 - at-Tawba (The Repentance) Ayat: 71
وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَاتُ بَعْضُهُمْ أَوْلِيَاءُ بَعْضٍ ۚ يَأْمُرُونَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَيَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَيُقِيمُونَ الصَّلَاةَ وَيُؤْتُونَ الزَّكَاةَ وَيُطِيعُونَ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ ۚ أُولَٰئِكَ سَيَرْحَمُهُمُ اللَّهُ ۗ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ (71
"مومن مرد اور مومن عورتیں آپس میں سب ایک دوسرے کے ولی اور مددگار ہیں کہ یہ سب ایک دوسرے کو نیکیوں کا حکم دیتے ہیں اور برائیوں سے روکتے ہیں,نماز قائم کرتے ہیں -زکوِٰ ادا کرتے ہیں اللہ اور رسول کی اطاعت کرتے ہیں -یہی وہ لوگ ہیں جن پر عنقریب خدا رحمت نازل کرے گا کہ وہ ہر شے پر غالب اور صاحبِ حکمت ہے"
[YOUSAF ALI] The Believers, men and women, are protectors one of another: they enjoin what is just, and forbid what is evil: they observe regular prayers, practise regular charity, and obey Allah and His Messenger. On them will Allah pour His mercy: for Allah is Exalted in power, Wise.
[ PICKTHAL ] And the believers, men and women, are protecting friends one of another; they enjoin the right and forbid the wrong, and they establish worship and they pay the poor-due, and they obey Allah and His messenger. As for these, Allah will have mercy on them. Lo! Allah is Mighty, Wise.
[ SHAKIR ] And (as for) the believing men and the believing women, they are guardians of each other; they enjoin good and forbid evil and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate, and obey Allah and His Messenger; (as for) these, Allah will show mercy to them; surely Allah is Mighty, Wise.
- Sura: 31 - Luqman (Luqman) Ayat: 17
يَا بُنَيَّ أَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ وَأْمُرْ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَانْهَ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَاصْبِرْ عَلَىٰ مَا أَصَابَكَ ۖ إِنَّ ذَٰلِكَ مِنْ عَزْمِ الْأُمُورِ (17
"بیٹا نماز قائم کرو, نیکیوں کا حکم دو, برائیوں سے منع کرو, اور اس راہ میں جو مصیبت پڑے اس پر صبر کرو کہ یہ بہت بڑی ہمت کا کام ہے"
[YOUSAF ALI] "O my son! establish regular prayer, enjoin what is just, and forbid what is wrong: and bear with patient constancy whatever betide thee; for this is firmness (of purpose) in (the conduct of) affairs.
[ PICKTHAL ] O my dear son! Establish worship and enjoin kindness and forbid iniquity, and persevere whatever may befall thee. Lo! that is of the steadfast heart of things.
[ SHAKIR ] O my son! keep up prayer and enjoin the good and forbid the evil, and bear patiently that which befalls you; surely these acts require courage;
- Sura: 49 - al-Hujraat (The Inner Apartments) Ayat: 10
إِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُونَ إِخْوَةٌ فَأَصْلِحُوا بَيْنَ أَخَوَيْكُمْ ۚ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُرْحَمُونَ (10
مومنین آپس میں بالکل بھائی بھائی ہیں لہٰذا اپنے بھائیوں کے درمیان اصلاح کرو اور اللہ سے ڈرتے رہو کہ شاید تم پر رحم کیا جائے
[YOUSAF ALI] The Believers are but a single Brotherhood: So make peace and reconciliation between your two (contending) brothers; and fear Allah, that ye may receive Mercy.
[ PICKTHAL ] The believers are naught else than brothers. Therefore make peace between your brethren and observe your duty to Allah that haply ye may obtain mercy.
[ SHAKIR ] The believers are but brethren, therefore make peace between your brethren and be careful of (your duty to) Allah that mercy may be had on you.
- Sura: 49 - al-Hujraat (The Inner Apartments) Ayat: 11
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا يَسْخَرْ قَوْمٌ مِنْ قَوْمٍ عَسَىٰ أَنْ يَكُونُوا خَيْرًا مِنْهُمْ وَلَا نِسَاءٌ مِنْ نِسَاءٍ عَسَىٰ أَنْ يَكُنَّ خَيْرًا مِنْهُنَّ ۖ وَلَا تَلْمِزُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ وَلَا تَنَابَزُوا بِالْأَلْقَابِ ۖ بِئْسَ الِاسْمُ الْفُسُوقُ بَعْدَ الْإِيمَانِ ۚ وَمَنْ لَمْ يَتُبْ فَأُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الظَّالِمُونَ (11
ایمان والو خبردار کوئی قوم دوسری قوم کا مذاق نہ اڑائے کہ شاید وہ اس سے بہتر ہو اور عورتوں کی بھی کوئی جماعت دوسری جماعت کا مسخرہ نہ کرے کہ شاید وہی عورتیں ان سے بہتر ہوں اور آپس میں ایک دوسرے کو طعنے بھی نہ دینا اور اِرے اِرے القاب سے یاد بھی نہ کرنا کہ ایمان کے بعد بدکاریً کا نام ہی بہت اِرا ہے اور جو شخص بھی توبہ نہ کرے تو سمجھو کہ یہی لوگ درحقیقت ظالمین ہیں
[YOUSAF ALI] O ye who believe! Let not some men among you laugh at others: It may be that the (latter) are better than the (former): Nor let some women laugh at others: It may be that the (latter are better than the (former): Nor defame nor be sarcastic to each other, nor call each other by (offensive) nicknames: Ill-seeming is a name connoting wickedness, (to be used of one) after he has believed: And those who do not desist are (indeed) doing wrong.
[ PICKTHAL ] O ye who believe! Let not a folk deride a folk who may be better than they (are), not let women (deride) women who may be better than they are; neither defame one another, nor insult one another by nicknames. Bad is the name of lewdness after faith. And whoso turneth not in repentance, such are evil-doers.
[ SHAKIR ] O you who believe! let not (one) people laugh at (another) people perchance they may be better than they, nor let women (laugh) at (other) women, perchance they may be better than they; and do not find fault with your own people nor call one another by nicknames; evil is a bad name after faith, and whoever does not turn, these it is that are the unjust.
- Sura: 58 - al-Mujaadila (The Pleading Woman) Ayat: 11
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذَا قِيلَ لَكُمْ تَفَسَّحُوا فِي الْمَجَالِسِ فَافْسَحُوا يَفْسَحِ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ ۖ وَإِذَا قِيلَ انْشُزُوا فَانْشُزُوا يَرْفَعِ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مِنْكُمْ وَالَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْعِلْمَ دَرَجَاتٍ ۚ وَاللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ خَبِيرٌ (11
ایمان والو جب تم سے مجلس میں وسعت پیدا کرنے کے لئے کہا جائے تو دوسروں کو جگہ دیدو تاکہ خدا تمہیں جنّت میں وسعت دے سکے اور جب تم سے کہا جائے کہ اُٹھ جاؤ تو اُٹھ جاؤ کہ خدا صاحبان هایمان اور جن کو علم دیا گیا ہے ان کے درجات کو بلند کرنا چاہتا ہے اور اللہ تمہارے اعمال سے خوب باخبر ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] O ye who believe! When ye are told to make room in the assemblies, (spread out and) make room: (ample) room will Allah provide for you. And when ye are told to rise up, rise up Allah will rise up, to (suitable) ranks (and degrees), those of you who believe and who have been granted (mystic) Knowledge. And Allah is well-acquainted with all ye do.
[ PICKTHAL ] O ye who believe! when it is said unto you, Make room! in assemblies, then make room; Allah will make way for you (hereafter). And when it is said, Come up higher! go up higher; Allah will exalt those who believe among you, and those who have knowledge, to high ranks. Allah is Informed of what ye do.
[ SHAKIR ] O you who believe! when it is said to you, Make room in (your) assemblies, then make ample room, Allah will give you ample, and when it is said: Rise up, then rise up. Allah will exalt those of you who believe, and those who are given knowledge, in high degrees; and Allah is Aware of what you do.
