تَكَادُ السَّمَاوَاتُ يَتَفَطَّرْنَ مِن فَوْقِهِنَّ ۚ وَالْمَلَائِكَةُ

Allah (as) protectors, and they worship them] Allah is Hafiz (Protector) over
them (i.e. takes care of their deeds and will recompense them), and you (O
Muhammad SAW) are not a Wakil (guardian or a disposer of their affairs) over

group in the Blaze.

And if Allah willed, He could have made them [of] one religion, but He admits
whom He wills into His mercy. And the wrongdoers have not any protector or
helper.
Muhsin Khan
And if Allah had willed, He could have made them one nation, but He admits whom
He wills to His Mercy. And the Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers, etc.) will
have neither a Wali (protector) nor a helper.
Pickthall
Had Allah willed, He could have made them one community, but Allah bringeth whom
He will into His mercy. And the wrong-doers have no friend nor helper.
Yusuf Ali
If Allah had so willed, He could have made them a single people; but He admits
whom He will to His Mercy; and the Wrong-doers will have no protector nor
helper.
Shakir
And if Allah had pleased He would surely have made them a single community, but
He makes whom He pleases enter into His mercy, and the unjust it is that shall
have no guardian or helper.
Dr. Ghali
And if Allah had (so) decided, He would indeed have made them one nation; but He
causes whomever He decides to enter into His mercy, and the unjust ones will in
no way have any patron or any ready vindicator.

شَرَعَ لَكُم مِّنَ الدِّينِ مَا وَصَّىٰ بِهِ نُوحًا وَالَّذِي أَوْحَيْنَا

الدِّينَ وَلَا تَتَفَرَّقُوا فِيهِ ۚ كَبُرَ عَلَى الْمُشْرِكِينَ مَا تَدْعُوهُمْ
إِلَيْهِ ۚ اللَّهُ يَجْتَبِي إِلَيْهِ مَن يَشَاءُ وَيَهْدِي إِلَيْهِ مَن يُنِيبُ
Sahih International
He has ordained for you of religion what He enjoined upon Noah and that which We
have revealed to you, [O Muhammad], and what We enjoined upon Abraham and Moses
and Jesus - to establish the religion and not be divided therein. Difficult for
those who associate others with Allah is that to which you invite them. Allah
chooses for Himself whom He wills and guides to Himself whoever turns back [to
Him].
Muhsin Khan
He (Allah) has ordained for you the same religion (Islam) which He ordained for
Nuh (Noah), and that which We have inspired in you (O Muhammad SAW), and that
which We ordained for Ibrahim (Abraham), Musa (Moses) and 'Iesa (Jesus) saying
you should establish religion (i.e. to do what it orders you to do practically),
and make no divisions in it (religion) (i.e. various sects in religion).
Intolerable for the Mushrikun , is that to which you (O Muhammad SAW) call them.
Allah chooses for Himself whom He wills, and guides unto Himself who turns to
Him in repentance and in obedience.
Pickthall
He hath ordained for you that religion which He commended unto Noah, and that
which We inspire in thee (Muhammad), and that which We commended unto Abraham
and Moses and Jesus, saying: Establish the religion, and be not divided therein.
Dreadful for the idolaters is that unto which thou callest them. Allah chooseth
for Himself whom He will, and guideth unto Himself him who turneth (toward Him).
Yusuf Ali
The same religion has He established for you as that which He enjoined on Noah -
the which We have sent by inspiration to thee - and that which We enjoined on
Abraham, Moses, and Jesus: Namely, that ye should remain steadfast in religion,
and make no divisions therein: to those who worship other things than Allah,
hard is the (way) to which thou callest them. Allah chooses to Himself those
whom He pleases, and guides to Himself those who turn (to Him).
Shakir
He has made plain to you of the religion what He enjoined upon Nuh and that
which We have revealed to you and that which We enjoined upon Ibrahim and Musa
and Isa that keep to obedience and be not divided therein; hard to the
unbelievers is that which you call them to; Allah chooses for Himself whom He
pleases, and guides to Himself him who turns (to Him), frequently.
Dr. Ghali
He has legislated for you as the religion what He enjoined on Nuh, (Noah) and
that which We have revealed to you, (The Prophet) and what We have enjoined on
Ibrahim and Musa and Isa (Abraham, Moses and Jesus, respectively) (saying),
"Keep up the religion and do not be disunited therein." Greatly (detested) to
the associators (i.e., those who associate others with Allah) is that to which
you call them. Allah selects to Himself whomever He decides and guides to
Himself whomever turns penitent.

Ayah 42:14 الأية
وَمَا تَفَرَّقُوا إِلَّا مِن بَعْدِ مَا جَاءَهُمُ الْعِلْمُ بَغْيًا بَيْنَهُمْ ۚ
وَلَوْلَا كَلِمَةٌ سَبَقَتْ مِن رَّبِّكَ إِلَىٰ أَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى لَّقُضِيَ
بَيْنَهُمْ ۚ وَإِنَّ الَّذِينَ أُورِثُوا الْكِتَابَ مِن بَعْدِهِمْ لَفِي شَكٍّ
مِّنْهُ مُرِيبٍ
Sahih International
And they did not become divided until after knowledge had come to them - out of
jealous animosity between themselves. And if not for a word that preceded from
your Lord [postponing the penalty] until a specified time, it would have been
concluded between them. And indeed, those who were granted inheritance of the
Scripture after them are, concerning it, in disquieting doubt.
Muhsin Khan
And they divided not till after knowledge had come to them, through selfish
transgression between themselves. And had it not been for a Word that went forth
before from your Lord for an appointed term, the matter would have been settled
between them. And verily, those who were made to inherit the Scripture [i.e. the
Taurah (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)] after them (i.e. Jews and Christians)
are in grave doubt concerning it (i.e. Allah's true religion Islam or the
Quran).
Pickthall
And they were not divided until after the knowledge came unto them, through
rivalry among themselves; and had it not been for a Word that had already gone
forth from thy Lord for an appointed term, it surely had been judged between
them. And those who were made to inherit the Scripture after them are verily in
hopeless doubt concerning it.
Yusuf Ali
And they became divided only after Knowledge reached them,- through selfish envy
as between themselves. Had it not been for a Word that went forth before from
thy Lord, (tending) to a Term appointed, the matter would have been settled
between them: But truly those who have inherited the Book after them are in
suspicious (disquieting) doubt concerning it.
Shakir
And they did not become divided until after knowledge had come to them out of
envy among themselves; and had not a word gone forth from your Lord till an
appointed term, certainly judgment would have been given between them; and those
who were made to inherit the Book after them are most surely in disquieting
doubt concerning it.
Dr. Ghali
And in no way were they disunited except even after knowledge had come to them,
being inequitable among themselves; and had it not been for a Word that had gone
before from your Lord until a stated term, indeed it would have been decreed
between them. And surely the ones who were made to inherit the Book even after
them are indeed in doubt of it, causing suspicion.

Sahih International
So to that [religion of Allah ] invite, [O Muhammad], and remain on a right
course as you are commanded and do not follow their inclinations but say, "I
have believed in what Allah has revealed of the Qur'an, and I have been
commanded to do justice among you. Allah is our Lord and your Lord. For us are
our deeds, and for you your deeds. There is no [need for] argument between us
and you. Allah will bring us together, and to Him is the [final] destination."
Muhsin Khan
So unto this (religion of Islam, alone and this Quran) then invite (people) (O
Muhammad SAW), and Istaqim [(i.e. stand firm and straight on Islamic Monotheism
by performing all that is ordained by Allah (good deeds, etc.), and by
abstaining from all that is forbidden by Allah (sins and evil deeds, etc.)], as
you are commanded, and follow not their desires but say: "I believe in
whatsoever Allah has sent down of the Book [all the holy Books, this Quran and
the Books of the old from the Taurat (Torah), or the Injeel (Gospel) or the
Pages of Ibrahim (Abraham)] and I am commanded to do justice among you, Allah is
our Lord and your Lord. For us our deeds and for you your deeds. There is no
dispute between us and you. Allah will assemble us (all), and to Him is the
final return.
Pickthall
Unto this, then, summon (O Muhammad). And be thou upright as thou art commanded,
and follow not their lusts, but say: I believe in whatever scripture Allah hath
sent down, and I am commanded to be just among you. Allah is our Lord and your
Lord. Unto us our works and unto you your works; no argument between us and you.
Allah will bring us together, and unto Him is the journeying.
Yusuf Ali
Now then, for that (reason), call (them to the Faith), and stand steadfast as
thou art commanded, nor follow thou their vain desires; but say: "I believe in
the Book which Allah has sent down; and I am commanded to judge justly between
you. Allah is our Lord and your Lord: for us (is the responsibility for) our
deeds, and for you for your deeds. There is no contention between us and you.
Allah will bring us together, and to Him is (our) Final Goal.
Shakir
To this then go on inviting, and go on steadfastly on the right way as you are
commanded, and do not follow their low desires, and say: I believe in what Allah
has revealed of the Book, and I am commanded to do justice between you: Allah is
our Lord and your Lord; we shall have our deeds and you shall have your deeds;
no plea need there be (now) between us and you: Allah will gather us together,
and to Him is the return.
Dr. Ghali
So therefore, then call (mankind to Allah), and go straight as you have been
commanded, and do not ever follow their prejudices. And say, "I believe in
whatever Book Allah has sent down, and I have been commanded to do justice
between you. Allah is our Lord and your Lord. We have our deeds, and you have
your deeds; there is no argument between us and you; Allah will gather us (all),
and to Him is the Destiny."

Sahih International
And those who argue concerning Allah after He has been responded to - their
argument is invalid with their Lord, and upon them is [His] wrath, and for them
is a severe punishment.
Muhsin Khan
And those who dispute concerning Allah (His Religion of Islamic Monotheism, with
which Muhammad SAW has been sent), after it has been accepted (by the people),
of no use is their dispute before their Lord, and on them is wrath, and for them
will be a severe torment.
Pickthall
And those who argue concerning Allah after He hath been acknowledged, their
argument hath no weight with their Lord, and wrath is upon them and theirs will
be an awful doom.
Yusuf Ali
But those who dispute concerning Allah after He has been accepted,- futile is
their dispute in the Sight of their Lord: on them will be a Penalty terrible.
Shakir
And (as for) those who dispute about Allah after that obedience has been
rendered to Him, their plea is null with their Lord, and upon them is wrath, and
for them is severe punishment.
Dr. Ghali
And the ones who argue concerning Allah, (i.e., about surrendering " Islam" to
Allah) even after He has been responded to, their argument is rebutted in the
Reckoning of their Lord, and anger will be upon them, and for them is a strict
torment.

It is Allah who has sent down the Book in truth and [also] the balance. And what

Muhsin Khan
It is Allah Who has sent down the Book (the Quran) in truth, and the Balance

Pickthall
Allah it is Who hath revealed the Scripture with truth, and the Balance. How

Yusuf Ali
It is Allah Who has sent down the Book in Truth, and the Balance (by which to
weigh conduct). And what will make thee realise that perhaps the Hour is close

مُشْفِقُونَ مِنْهَا وَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّهَا الْحَقُّ ۗ أَلَا إِنَّ الَّذِينَ
يُمَارُونَ فِي السَّاعَةِ لَفِي ضَلَالٍ بَعِيدٍ
Sahih International
Those who do not believe in it are impatient for it, but those who believe are
fearful of it and know that it is the truth. Unquestionably, those who dispute
concerning the Hour are in extreme error.
Muhsin Khan
Those who believe not therein seek to hasten it, while those who believe are
fearful of it, and know that it is the very truth. Verily, those who dispute
concerning the Hour are certainly in error far away.
Pickthall
Those who believe not therein seek to hasten it, while those who believe are
fearful of it and know that it is the Truth. Are not they who dispute, in doubt
concerning the Hour, far astray?
Yusuf Ali
Only those wish to hasten it who believe not in it: those who believe hold it in
awe, and know that it is the Truth. Behold, verily those that dispute concerning
the Hour are far astray.
Shakir
Those who do not believe in it would hasten it on, and those who believe are in
fear from it, and they know that it is the truth. Now most surely those who
dispute obstinately concerning the hour are in a great error.
Dr. Ghali
The ones who do not believe therein seek to hasten it; and the ones who have
believed (feel) timorous about it, and they know that it is the Truth. Verily,
the ones who wrangle about the Hour are surely in far error indeed.

bring him of it, and in no way will he have in the Hereafter any assignment.

Judgment, the matter would have been decided between them (at once). But verily
the Wrong-doers will have a grievous Penalty.
Shakir
Or have they associates who have prescribed for them any religion that Allah
does not sanction? And were it not for the word of judgment, decision would have

But if they turn away - then We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], over them as a

his hands have put forth, then indeed, man is ungrateful.

But if they turn away (O Muhammad SAW from the Islamic Monotheism, which you
have brought to them). We have not sent you (O Muhammad SAW) as a Hafiz
(protector) over them (i.e. to take care of their deeds and to recompense them).
Your duty is to convey (the Message). And verily, when We cause man to taste of
Mercy from Us, he rejoices thereat, but when some ill befalls them because of
the deeds which their hands have sent forth, then verily, man (becomes) ingrate!
Pickthall
But if they are averse, We have not sent thee as a warder over them. Thine is

Us he exulteth therefor. And if some evil striketh them because of that which
their own hands have sent before, then lo! man is an ingrate.
Yusuf Ali
If then they run away, We have not sent thee as a guard over them. Thy duty is
but to convey (the Message). And truly, when We give man a taste of a Mercy from
Ourselves, he doth exult thereat, but when some ill happens to him, on account
of the deeds which his hands have sent forth, truly then is man ungrateful!
Shakir
But if they turn aside, We have not sent you as a watcher over them; on you is
only to deliver (the message); and surely when We make man taste mercy from Us,
he rejoices thereat; and if an evil afflicts them on account of what their hands
have already done, then-surely man is ungrateful.
Dr. Ghali
Yet, in case they veer away, then in no way have We sent you (as) a constant
preserver over them; decidedly (your duty) is nothing except the proclamation of
(the Message). And surely We, when We let man taste mercy from Us, he exults
with it; and in case odious time afflicts them for what their hands have
forwarded, then surely man is a constant disbeliever.
