وَقَا لُوْا کُوْنُوْا هُوْدًا اَوْ نَصٰرٰى تَهْتَدُوْا ۗ قُلْ بَلْ مِلَّةَ اِبْرٰهٖمَ حَنِيْفًا ۗ وَمَا كَا نَ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِيْنَ
"They say, "Be Jews or Christians [so] you will be guided." Say, "Rather, [we follow] the religion of Abraham, inclining toward truth, and he was not of the polytheists.""
(QS. Al-Baqara 2: Verse 135)
اَلَّذِيْنَ اٰتَيْنٰهُمُ الْكِتٰبَ يَعْرِفُوْنَهٗ كَمَا يَعْرِفُوْنَ اَبْنَآءَهُمْ ۗ وَاِ نَّ فَرِيْقًا مِّنْهُمْ لَيَكْتُمُوْنَ الْحَـقَّ وَهُمْ يَعْلَمُوْنَ
"Those to whom We gave the Scripture know him as they know their own sons. But indeed, a party of them conceal the truth while they know [it]."
(QS. Al-Baqara 2: Verse 146)
اِنَّ فِيْ خَلْقِ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَا لْاَ رْضِ وَا خْتِلَا فِ الَّيْلِ وَا لنَّهَا رِ وَا لْفُلْكِ الَّتِيْ تَجْرِيْ فِى الْبَحْرِ بِمَا يَنْفَعُ النَّا سَ وَمَاۤ اَنْزَلَ اللّٰهُ مِنَ السَّمَآءِ مِنْ مَّآءٍ فَاَ حْيَا بِهِ الْاَ رْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَا وَبَثَّ فِيْهَا مِنْ کُلِّ دَآ بَّةٍ ۖ وَّتَصْرِيْفِ الرِّيٰحِ وَا لسَّحَا بِ الْمُسَخَّرِ بَيْنَ السَّمَآءِ وَا لْاَ رْضِ لَاٰ يٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَّعْقِلُوْنَ
"Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and earth, and the alternation of the night and the day, and the [great] ships which sail through the sea with that which benefits people, and what Allah has sent down from the heavens of rain, giving life thereby to the earth after its lifelessness and dispersing therein every [kind of] moving creature, and [His] directing of the winds and the clouds controlled between the heaven and the earth are signs for a people who use reason."
(QS. Al-Baqara 2: Verse 164)
يٰۤاَ يُّهَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا کُلُوْا مِنْ طَيِّبٰتِ مَا رَزَقْنٰكُمْ وَا شْكُرُوْا لِلّٰهِ اِنْ کُنْتُمْ اِيَّاهُ تَعْبُدُوْنَ
"O you who have believed, eat from the good things which We have provided for you and be grateful to Allah if it is [indeed] Him that you worship."
(QS. Al-Baqara 2: Verse 172)
وَاِ ذَا سَاَ لَـكَ عِبَا دِيْ عَنِّيْ فَاِ نِّيْ قَرِيْبٌ ۗ اُجِيْبُ دَعْوَةَ الدَّا عِ اِذَا دَعَا نِ ۙ فَلْيَسْتَجِيْبُوْا لِيْ وَلْيُؤْمِنُوْا بِيْ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْشُدُوْنَ
"And when My servants ask you, [O Muhammad], concerning Me - indeed I am near. I respond to the invocation of the supplicant when he calls upon Me. So let them respond to Me [by obedience] and believe in Me that they may be [rightly] guided."
(QS. Al-Baqara 2: Verse 186)
وَاَ نْفِقُوْا فِيْ سَبِيْلِ اللّٰهِ وَلَا تُلْقُوْا بِاَ يْدِيْكُمْ اِلَى التَّهْلُكَةِ ۛ وَاَ حْسِنُوْا ۛ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ يُحِبُّ الْمُحْسِنِيْنَ
"And spend in the way of Allah and do not throw [yourselves] with your [own] hands into destruction [by refraining]. And do good; indeed, Allah loves the doers of good."
(QS. Al-Baqara 2: Verse 195)
يٰۤاَ يُّهَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوا ادْخُلُوْا فِى السِّلْمِ کَآ فَّةً ۖ وَّلَا تَتَّبِعُوْا خُطُوٰتِ الشَّيْطٰنِ ۗ اِنَّهٗ لَـکُمْ عَدُوٌّ مُّبِيْنٌ
"O you who have believed, enter into Islam completely [and perfectly] and do not follow the footsteps of Satan. Indeed, he is to you a clear enemy."
(QS. Al-Baqara 2: Verse 208)
كَا نَ النَّا سُ اُمَّةً وَّا حِدَةً ۗ فَبَعَثَ اللّٰهُ النَّبِيّٖنَ مُبَشِّرِيْنَ وَمُنْذِرِيْنَ ۖ وَاَ نْزَلَ مَعَهُمُ الْكِتٰبَ بِا لْحَـقِّ لِيَحْكُمَ بَيْنَ النَّا سِ فِيْمَا اخْتَلَفُوْا فِيْهِ ۗ وَمَا اخْتَلَفَ فِيْهِ اِلَّا الَّذِيْنَ اُوْتُوْهُ مِنْۢ بَعْدِ مَا جَآءَتْهُمُ الْبَيِّنٰتُ بَغْيًاۢ بَيْنَهُمْ ۚ فَهَدَى اللّٰهُ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا لِمَا اخْتَلَفُوْا فِيْهِ مِنَ الْحَـقِّ بِاِ ذْنِهٖ ۗ وَا للّٰهُ يَهْدِيْ مَنْ يَّشَآءُ اِلٰى صِرَا طٍ مُّسْتَقِيْمٍ
"Mankind was [of] one religion [before their deviation]; then Allah sent the prophets as bringers of good tidings and warners and sent down with them the Scripture in truth to judge between the people concerning that in which they differed. And none differed over the Scripture except those who were given it - after the clear proofs came to them - out of jealous animosity among themselves. And Allah guided those who believed to the truth concerning that over which they had differed, by His permission. And Allah guides whom He wills to a straight path."
(QS. Al-Baqara 2: Verse 213)
لَا يُؤَاخِذُكُمُ اللّٰهُ بِا للَّغْوِ فِيْۤ اَيْمَا نِكُمْ وَلٰـكِنْ يُّؤَاخِذُكُمْ بِمَا كَسَبَتْ قُلُوْبُكُمْ ۗ وَا للّٰهُ غَفُوْرٌ حَلِيْمٌ
"Allah does not impose blame upon you for what is unintentional in your oaths, but He imposes blame upon you for what your hearts have earned. And Allah is Forgiving and Forbearing."
(QS. Al-Baqara 2: Verse 225)
وَا لَّذِيْنَ يُتَوَفَّوْنَ مِنْكُمْ وَيَذَرُوْنَ اَزْوَا جًا يَّتَرَبَّصْنَ بِاَ نْفُسِهِنَّ اَرْبَعَةَ اَشْهُرٍ وَّعَشْرًا ۚ فَاِ ذَا بَلَغْنَ اَجَلَهُنَّ فَلَا جُنَا حَ عَلَيْكُمْ فِيْمَا فَعَلْنَ فِيْۤ اَنْفُسِهِنَّ بِا لْمَعْرُوْفِ ۗ وَا للّٰهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ خَبِيْرٌ
"And those who are taken in death among you and leave wives behind - they, [the wives, shall] wait four months and ten [days]. And when they have fulfilled their term, then there is no blame upon you for what they do with themselves in an acceptable manner. And Allah is [fully] Acquainted with what you do."
(QS. Al-Baqara 2: Verse 234)
حَا فِظُوْا عَلَى الصَّلَوٰتِ وَا لصَّلٰوةِ الْوُسْطٰى وَقُوْمُوْا لِلّٰهِ قٰنِتِيْنَ
"Maintain with care the [obligatory] prayers and [in particular] the middle prayer and stand before Allah, devoutly obedient."
(QS. Al-Baqara 2: Verse 238)
فَلَمَّا فَصَلَ طَا لُوْتُ بِا لْجُـنُوْدِ ۙ قَا لَ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ مُبْتَلِيْکُمْ بِنَهَرٍ ۚ فَمَنْ شَرِبَ مِنْهُ فَلَيْسَ مِنِّيْ ۚ وَمَنْ لَّمْ يَطْعَمْهُ فَاِ نَّهٗ مِنِّيْۤ اِلَّا مَنِ اغْتَرَفَ غُرْفَةً بِۢيَدِهٖ ۚ فَشَرِبُوْا مِنْهُ اِلَّا قَلِيْلًا مِّنْهُمْ ۗ فَلَمَّا جَاوَزَهٗ هُوَ وَا لَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا مَعَهٗ ۙ قَا لُوْا لَا طَا قَةَ لَنَا الْيَوْمَ بِجَا لُوْتَ وَجُنُوْدِهٖ ۗ قَا لَ الَّذِيْنَ يَظُنُّوْنَ اَنَّهُمْ مُّلٰقُوا اللّٰهِ ۙ کَمْ مِّنْ فِئَةٍ قَلِيْلَةٍ غَلَبَتْ فِئَةً کَثِيْرَةً بِۢاِذْنِ اللّٰهِ ۗ وَا للّٰهُ مَعَ الصّٰبِرِيْنَ
"And when Saul went forth with the soldiers, he said, "Indeed, Allah will be testing you with a river. So whoever drinks from it is not of me, and whoever does not taste it is indeed of me, excepting one who takes [from it] in the hollow of his hand." But they drank from it, except a [very] few of them. Then when he had crossed it along with those who believed with him, they said, "There is no power for us today against Goliath and his soldiers." But those who were certain that they would meet Allah said, "How many a small company has overcome a large company by permission of Allah. And Allah is with the patient.""
(QS. Al-Baqara 2: Verse 249)
اللّٰهُ لَاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا هُوَ الْحَـيُّ الْقَيُّوْمُ ۚ لَا تَأْخُذُهٗ سِنَةٌ وَّلَا نَوْمٌ ۗ لَهٗ مَا فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَمَا فِى الْاَ رْضِ ۗ مَنْ ذَا الَّذِيْ يَشْفَعُ عِنْدَهٗۤ اِلَّا بِاِ ذْنِهٖ ۗ يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ اَيْدِيْهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ ۚ وَلَا يُحِيْطُوْنَ بِشَيْءٍ مِّنْ عِلْمِهٖۤ اِلَّا بِمَا شَآءَ ۚ وَسِعَ كُرْسِيُّهُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَا لْاَ رْضَ ۚ وَلَا يَــئُوْدُهٗ حِفْظُهُمَا ۚ وَ هُوَ الْعَلِيُّ الْعَظِيْمُ
"Allah - there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of [all] existence. Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what He wills. His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth, and their preservation tires Him not. And He is the Most High, the Most Great."
(QS. Al-Baqara 2: Verse 255)
اَلشَّيْطٰنُ يَعِدُكُمُ الْـفَقْرَ وَيَأْمُرُكُمْ بِا لْفَحْشَآءِ ۚ وَا للّٰهُ يَعِدُكُمْ مَّغْفِرَةً مِّنْهُ وَفَضْلًا ۗ وَا للّٰهُ وَا سِعٌ عَلِيْمٌ
"Satan threatens you with poverty and orders you to immorality, while Allah promises you forgiveness from Him and bounty. And Allah is all-Encompassing and Knowing."
(QS. Al-Baqara 2: Verse 268)
لِلْفُقَرَآءِ الَّذِيْنَ اُحْصِرُوْا فِيْ سَبِيْلِ اللّٰهِ لَا يَسْتَطِيْعُوْنَ ضَرْبًا فِى الْاَ رْضِ ۖ يَحْسَبُهُمُ الْجَاهِلُ اَغْنِيَآءَ مِنَ التَّعَفُّفِ ۚ تَعْرِفُهُمْ بِسِيْمٰهُمْ ۚ لَا يَسْــئَلُوْنَ النَّا سَ اِلْحَــافًا ۗ وَمَا تُنْفِقُوْا مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَاِ نَّ اللّٰهَ بِهٖ عَلِيْمٌ
"[Charity is] for the poor who have been restricted for the cause of Allah, unable to move about in the land. An ignorant [person] would think them self-sufficient because of their restraint, but you will know them by their [characteristic] sign. They do not ask people persistently [or at all]. And whatever you spend of good - indeed, Allah is Knowing of it."
(QS. Al-Baqara 2: Verse 273)
مِنْ قَبْلُ هُدًى لِّلنَّا سِ وَاَ نْزَلَ الْفُرْقَا نَ ۗ اِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا بِاٰ يٰتِ اللّٰهِ لَهُمْ عَذَا بٌ شَدِيْدٌ ۗ وَا للّٰهُ عَزِيْزٌ ذُو انْتِقَا مٍ
"Before, as guidance for the people. And He revealed the Qur'an. Indeed, those who disbelieve in the verses of Allah will have a severe punishment, and Allah is exalted in Might, the Owner of Retribution."
(QS. Aal-i-Imraan 3: Verse 4)
زُيِّنَ لِلنَّا سِ حُبُّ الشَّهَوٰتِ مِنَ النِّسَآءِ وَا لْبَـنِيْنَ وَا لْقَنَا طِيْرِ الْمُقَنْطَرَةِ مِنَ الذَّهَبِ وَا لْفِضَّةِ وَا لْخَـيْلِ الْمُسَوَّمَةِ وَا لْاَ نْعَا مِ وَا لْحَـرْثِ ۗ ذٰلِكَ مَتَا عُ الْحَيٰوةِ الدُّنْيَا ۚ وَا للّٰهُ عِنْدَهٗ حُسْنُ الْمَاٰ بِ
"Beautified for people is the love of that which they desire - of women and sons, heaped-up sums of gold and silver, fine branded horses, and cattle and tilled land. That is the enjoyment of worldly life, but Allah has with Him the best return."
(QS. Aal-i-Imraan 3: Verse 14)
اِنَّ الدِّيْنَ عِنْدَ اللّٰهِ الْاِ سْلَا مُ ۗ وَمَا اخْتَلَفَ الَّذِيْنَ اُوْتُوا الْكِتٰبَ اِلَّا مِنْۢ بَعْدِ مَا جَآءَهُمُ الْعِلْمُ بَغْيًاۢ بَيْنَهُمْ ۗ وَمَنْ يَّكْفُرْ بِاٰ يٰتِ اللّٰهِ فَاِ نَّ اللّٰهَ سَرِيْعُ الْحِسَا بِ
"Indeed, the religion in the sight of Allah is Islam. And those who were given the Scripture did not differ except after knowledge had come to them - out of jealous animosity between themselves. And whoever disbelieves in the verses of Allah, then indeed, Allah is swift in [taking] account."
(QS. Aal-i-Imraan 3: Verse 19)
قُلْ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ تُحِبُّوْنَ اللّٰهَ فَا تَّبِعُوْنِيْ يُحْبِبْكُمُ اللّٰهُ وَيَغْفِرْ لَـكُمْ ذُنُوْبَكُمْ ۗ وَا للّٰهُ غَفُوْرٌ رَّحِيْمٌ
"Say, [O Muhammad], "If you should love Allah, then follow me, [so] Allah will love you and forgive you your sins. And Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.""
(QS. Aal-i-Imraan 3: Verse 31)
