The Creator commanded His servants to take care of their rights during transactions and agreements through useful rules that are so beautiful that even prudent men are not able to come up with more perfect prescriptions. Several useful conclusions can be drawn from this revelation. 1. The Shari'ah allows borrowing money and purchasing goods on credit, as Allah has said that the faithful do so. Any actions that can characterize the faithful are the result of their faith and conviction, and the mention of them means the approval of the Almighty Lord and Judge. 2. When concluding agreements on debt obligations and lease of property, the expiration date of the agreement must be indicated. 3. If at the conclusion of such agreements the terms of their expiration are not specified, then they are illegal, because they can lead to dangerous consequences and are similar to gambling. 4. The Almighty ordered to write down agreements on debt obligations. This prescription is mandatory if the observance of rights is mandatory, for example, if a power of attorney is issued or an agreement is concluded on guardianship, disposal of the property of an orphan, transfer of waqf (inalienable) property or suretyship. It is almost mandatory if the person has sufficient grounds to claim certain rights, and may be desirable to varying degrees depending on the circumstances. In any case, the drafting of contracts in writing is considered one of the most important factors contributing to the preservation of the rights of both parties, since no one is protected from forgetfulness and mistakes, and since this is the only way to protect yourself from scammers who do not fear Allah. 5. The Almighty ordered the scribes to write down the obligations of both parties in justice, without making concessions to one of the parties due to kinship or for other reasons, and without infringing on the rights of the other side due to enmity or for any other reason. 6. Drawing up agreements in writing is one of the meritorious deeds and is considered a boon in relation to both parties. It contributes to the preservation of their rights and saves them from additional responsibility, and therefore the scribe must perform his duties properly in order that he may enjoy his reward. 7. A scribe should be a person who can properly and fairly perform his duties and who is known for his justice. If a person does not know how to draw up contracts correctly, then he will not be able to fulfill his duties; if he is not a just person and does not deserve the trust and recognition of others, then the contract drawn up by him will also not be recognized by people and will not help the parties to maintain their rights. 8. The fairness of the scribe is complemented by his ability to correctly express thoughts and use the terminology adopted in the preparation of various contracts. In this case, an important role is given to customs and generally accepted rules. 9. Drawing up contracts in writing is the mercy of Allah in relation to those slaves who without it cannot properly perform their religious and worldly duties. If Allah taught a person the ability to correctly draw up contracts, then he was given a great mercy, and in order to properly thank Allah for it, he is obliged to help people, draw up contracts for them and not refuse them such a service. Therefore, scribes are commanded not to refuse to draw up a contract in the way that Allah has taught them. 10. The scribe should record the confession of a person who has material obligations to the other party, if he can clearly state his obligations. If, on the other hand, he is unable to do so because of his minor age, dementia, insanity, dumbness or incapacity, then the guardian must dictate the contract for him, who, at the conclusion of the contract, acts as a responsible person. 11. Recognition is one of the important circumstances through which the rights of people are confirmed, because Allah Almighty ordered the scribes to write down the confessions of the party that bears material responsibility. 12. If a person is unable to bear full responsibility due to small age, dementia, insanity or other reasons, then a guardian must act on his behalf. 13. The guardian acts on behalf of his ward in all cases when his confession is required regarding his rights and obligations. 14. If a person appoints another person as his lawyer or entrusts him with certain powers in settling relations with people, then the words of his authorized representative are acceptable, since he acts on behalf of the person who authorized him. And if guardians are allowed to speak on behalf of those who are not capable of bearing full responsibility, then this is all the more allowed for authorized representatives of people who, of their own free will, entrust certain powers to them. The words of such authorized representatives are taken into account and have legal force, and in case of disagreement, they are given preference over the words of the person who authorized them. 15. A person who bears financial responsibility is obliged to fear Allah during the dictation of a contract or agreement, not to infringe on the rights of the other party, not to reduce the qualitative and quantitative characteristics of his duties and not to distort the terms of the contract. On the contrary, he must fully acknowledge his obligations to the other party, just as the other party must recognize his obligations to him. If the parties do not do so, then they are among the cheaters and swindlers. 16. Muslims are obliged to recognize their duties, even if they remain unnoticed by others, and such an act is one of the most glorious manifestations of God-fearing. If a person does not communicate about his duties, which remain unnoticed by the other side, then this indicates a lack and imperfection of his God-fearing. 17. When concluding commercial transactions, Muslims are supposed to invite witnesses. The provision regarding the presence of witnesses at the conclusion of debt obligations contracts is similar to the provision regarding the drawing up of such contracts in writing, which we have already discussed, since when they are drawn up in writing, evidence is actually recorded. As for cash transactions, it is better to conclude them in the presence of witnesses, but it is possible to refuse to draw up such contracts in writing, because cash transactions are widespread, and drawing up written contracts is cumbersome. 18. Two just men must be witnesses. If their presence is impossible or difficult, then one man and two women can become witnesses. This applies to all types of relationships between people, whether it is the conclusion of commercial transactions or agreements on debt obligations, the execution of related conditions or documents. (The question may arise here why the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) made a decision on the basis of one testimony, confirmed by an oath, if the beautiful verse we are discussing requires the testimony of two men or one man and two women? In a beautiful verse, the Creator called upon His servants to look after their rights and mentioned the most perfect and reliable form of this, however, this verse in no way contradicts the decisions of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him, based on the testimony of one witness, confirmed by an oath. on the preservation of rights, both parties must take the most perfect precautions before entering into a deal. As for the issue of settling litigations, the most convincing arguments and evidence are taken into account in such proceedings.) 19. The testimony of two women is tantamount to the testimony of one man only in worldly matters. As for religious matters, such as the transmission of hadith or the issuance of religious decrees, in them the testimony of a woman is equivalent to the testimony of a man, and the differences between these two situations are obvious. 20. The Almighty pointed out the reason why the testimony of a man is equal to the testimony of two women. It lies in the fact that women often have a weak memory, while men have a good memory. 21. If one witness forgot about the incident, after which the second witness reminded him of what happened, then such forgetfulness does not detract from the significance of the witness if he restored the events to memory after the reminder. This follows from the revelation that if one of the witnesses makes a mistake, the second must remind her. Moreover, one should accept the testimony of a person who forgot about the incident, after which he remembered it without a reminder, since the testimony should be based on awareness and conviction. 22. As we have just noted, evidence must be based on knowledge and conviction and cannot be based on doubt, and if the witness doubts his own words, then he is forbidden to testify. Even if a person is inclined to certain testimonies, he still should testify only to what he knows for sure. 23. A witness does not have the right to refuse to testify if he is invited to appear as a witness, and acting as a witness is one of the meritorious deeds, since Allah ordered the faithful to do so and informed about the benefits of this. 24. It is forbidden to harm the scribe and witnesses by inviting them to perform their duties at an inconvenient time for them and under such circumstances as may harm them. The responsible parties also have no right to harm the scribe and witnesses, and the scribe and witnesses must not harm the responsible parties or one of them. It follows that if drawing up contracts and agreements in writing, participating as a witness or giving evidence can cause harm, then people can refuse to perform the duties of a scribe and a witness. 25. The Almighty emphasized that Muslims should not harm all those who do good, and should not burden them with overwhelming duties. The Almighty said: “Do they reward goodness in any other way than goodness?” (55:60). As for those who do good, they must fulfill their duties in the most perfect way, not reproaching people for the service rendered and not offending them either in word or deed, because otherwise their actions cannot be righteous. 26. The scribe and witnesses are not entitled to take remuneration for their services, because Allah obligated slaves to write contracts and act as witnesses, and because remuneration for such services is detrimental to the parties who enter into contracts and agreements. 27. The Almighty drew the attention of the slaves to the great benefit that they can derive if they faithfully follow these glorious instructions. They will be able to preserve their rights, observe justice, get rid of disputes and mutual claims, insure themselves against forgetfulness and absent-mindedness. That is why Allah said that the observance of the revealed orders will be fairer before Him, more convincing for evidence and better for avoiding doubts. In these things, people really feel an acute need. 28. The study of the rules for drawing up contracts in writing belongs to religious matters, since this skill allows you to maintain faith and worldly well-being and provide services to others. 29. If Allah honored a person with a special skill that other people need, then in order to thank Him properly, a person should use his skill for the benefit of His slaves, satisfying their needs. This conclusion follows from the fact that immediately after the ban on avoiding writing contracts in writing, Allah reminded scribes that it was He who taught them how to write contracts correctly. And although such a service is their duty, Allah will certainly satisfy their needs as long as they satisfy the needs of their brothers. 30. Causing harm to witnesses and scribes is wickedness, which means avoiding obedience to Allah and disobedience. Wickedness can manifest itself to a greater or lesser extent and in many different forms, and therefore He did not call believers who do not comply with this command ungodly, but said that they commit sin. The more a person deviates from obedience to the Lord, the more pronounced becomes his ungodliness and fall into sin. 31. God-fearing is a means of acquiring knowledge, because Allah has promised to train slaves who profess to fear God. Even more expressive is the following revelation on this occasion: “O you who believe! If you fear Allah, then He will give you the ability to distinguish between truth and falsehood, forgive you your sins and forgive you ”(8:29). 31. The acquisition of useful knowledge includes not only the study of religious matters related to the rites of worship, but also the study of worldly sciences related to the relationship between people, because Allah takes care of all the religious and worldly affairs of His slaves and because in His great scripture it is explained any questions.

The importance of the last 2 verses of Surah Al-Baqarah
The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: “Anyone who read the last two verses from Surah Al-Baqarah at night. That will be enough.” (Muslim)
“Whoever reads the last two verses of Surah Al-Baqarah at night will be protected that night from fire and other dangers.”
“Allah completed Sura Al-Baqara with two verses and rewarded me from the treasury that is under his Most High Throne. You also learn these verses, teach them to your wives and children. These verses can also be read as a dua.
“He who reads “Amana-r-rasula” before going to bed, as if he will perform worship until morning.”
“Allah has given me Surah Al-Baqarah from the treasury under His Throne. It was not given to any prophet before me."
Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, said: “About a person who did not read the last three verses of Surah Al-Baqar before going to bed, I cannot say that he is smart.” Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, said: “A smart person will not go to bed without reading the last verses of Surah Al-Baqarah.”
Abd Allah ibn Masud said: "The Messenger of Allah in Mi'raj was granted three things: five prayers, the last verse of Surah Al-Baqarah and intercession for those who died without giving Allah a partner."
Al-Saadi's interpretation
In an authentic hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), it is reported that reading these two verses at night is enough to protect oneself from evil, and the reason for this lies in their glorious meaning.
In one of the previous verses of this sura, Allah called people to believe in all the main provisions of the Muslim religion: “Say: “We believed in Allah, as well as in what was sent down to us and what was sent down to Ibrahim (Abraham), Ismail (Ishmael), Ishak (Isaac), Yakub (Jacob) and the tribes (twelve sons of Yakub), which was given to Musa (Moses) and Isa (Jesus) and which was given to the prophets by their Lord. We make no distinction between them, and to Him alone we submit” (2:136). And in this revelation, He said that the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and the faithful believed in these provisions of religion, believed in all the messengers and in all scriptures. They are not like those who accept one part of Scripture while rejecting another, or accept some messengers but reject others. Indeed, this is what the erring followers of distorted creeds do.
The mention of the faithful, along with the mention of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, is a great honor for them. This indicates that the religious injunctions relating to the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) apply to his followers. He carried out these precepts in the most perfect way and surpassed in this field all the rest of the faithful and even other God's messengers. Then Allah reported that the faithful say: “We listen and we obey! Lord, forgive us, because we have to return to You.” They undertake to adhere to everything that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) brought in the Qur'an and Sunnah. They listen to the religious laws, accepting them with all their soul and submitting to them with their whole body, and their words are filled with humility before Allah and imply a request to help them in fulfilling their religious duties and to forgive them for the omissions made when fulfilling the obligatory instructions, and the sins they have committed. They humbly turn to Allah with a prayer that benefits them, and Allah Almighty has already answered it by saying through the mouth of His prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him: “I have already done it!”.
Allah necessarily accepts these prayers from the faithful as a whole and accepts them from individual believers, if there are no factors preventing the acceptance of the prayer. Allah does not hold Muslims accountable for deeds they do by mistake or forgetfulness. He has made the Muslim sharia supremely easy and does not burden Muslims with the burdens and obligations that were so burdensome for previous religious communities. Allah did not order them to perform duties that exceeded their capabilities, forgave their sins, had mercy on them and gave them victory over the disbelievers.
We ask Allah Almighty through His beautiful names and qualities and through the mercy that He showed us when He taught us to follow the precepts of His religion, to put these prayers into practice for us, to fulfill the promise given by the mouth of the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, and put in order the affairs of all faithful Muslims. Important rules follow from this revelation. According to the first of them, religious duties should be lightened and Muslims should be freed from constraint in all matters of religion. Another rule teaches that a person deserves forgiveness if, while performing the rites of worship, he violated his obligations to Allah by mistake or forgetfulness. If, for these reasons, he violated his duties to the creatures, then he does not deserve humiliation and censure. However, he is liable if his mistake or forgetfulness caused the death of people or property, because a person does not have the right to encroach on the life or property of people either intentionally, or by mistake, or by forgetfulness.

The Holy Quran on the site is quoted according to the Translation of Meanings by E. Kuliev (2013) Quran online
“Bismillahi-r-rahmani r-rahim. Allahu la ilaha illa hu al-khayul-qayyum. Laa ta’huzuhu sinatyn wa laa naum Laahu mafissamaauyaati wa maafil ard. Man zallazii yashfau ‘indahu illa-a bi-iznih Ya’lamy maa bayna aidiyhim umaa halfakhum wala yyhiytuuna bishyai im min ‘ilmihii illaa bi maa shaaaaa.

“Allah is the One besides Whom, there is no deity. He is Living, Eternally Existing, neither slumber nor sleep overcomes Him. He owns everything that is in Heaven, and everything that is on Earth, who will intercede before Him, without His permission? He knows what was before them and knows what will be after them, they take from His knowledge only what He wills. His Throne embraces the Heavens and the Earth, and His guarding them does not burden, verily. He is High, Great."
« Ayat Aeh– Kursi” is the 255th verse of Surah Bakara of the Holy Quran. The hadeeth of the Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) states:
“Like everything in the world has a core, a foundation, so the essence, the central place of the Bakara sura is the Ayat of the Heavenly Throne.
Hazrat Babafariduddin Janj (rahmatullah 'alayh) reported that “When Ayat al-Kursi was sent down to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), the Angel Jibrail ('alayhis-salaam), surrounded by 70 thousand angels, transmitted this verse, saying at the same time that “The one who sincerely reads it will receive a reward as for 70 years of service to the Almighty. And the one who reads Ayat al-Kursi before leaving the house will be surrounded by 1000 angels who will pray for his forgiveness.”
The person reading this verse is under the protection of the most majestic angels of the Almighty.
Reading Ayat al-Kursi will be protected from the evil of genies from morning to evening and from evening to morning.
Ayat al-Kursi is equal to a quarter of the Holy Quran.
Whoever reads Ayat al-Kursi before going to bed will be protected by two angels until the morning.
Whoever on Fridays, preferably in solitude, begins to read Ayat al-Kursi 70 times after the Al-Asr prayer (the third in a row), he will begin to see the inner spiritual light, and every dua made at this moment will be accepted by Allah.
Before any test that a person has to experience, whether it is a meeting with negative people or another danger in the form of a natural element, etc. read Ayat al-Kursi.
“I cannot understand those Muslims who do not read Ayat al-Kursi before going to bed. If you only knew how great this verse is, you would never neglect reading Ayat al-Kursi, because it was given to the Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu ‘aleihi wa sallam) from the treasuries of Al-Arsh. Ayat al-Kursi was not sent down to any of the Prophets before the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). And I never go to bed without first reading Ayat al-Kursi.

“The Prophet [Muhammad] believed in [the truth and veracity of what] was sent down to him from the Lord [and this is the Holy Scripture, and prophetic revelations, and the messenger mission itself], and the believers [also believed]. All [who were able to believe] believed in God [the Only Creator, Lord of the worlds], in His angels, His Scriptures [Torah, the Gospel, the Koran and everything that was sent down from the Almighty throughout human history] and the messengers of God / 213 / . We do not divide between messengers. [From the point of view of Islam, there are no bad and good, recognized and unrecognized messengers.] And they (believers) said: “We heard [Divine admonitions transmitted through the Prophet] and submitted. We ask You to forgive our sins, O Lord, for the return is to You. [After the End of the World, we will all be resurrected and return, stand before You to answer for our deeds in the Court Square] ".
“Allah does not impose on the soul that which is greater than its strength (capabilities). In her favor is what she has done [of the good], and against her what she has done [of the bad. The soul is not responsible for various kinds of fleeting thoughts, and even more so for other people's sins]. Oh my God! Do not punish for forgotten or committed by mistake. [We strive not to forget the important, and not to make mistakes in the choice.] Do not place a burden (weight) on us, just as You laid it on those who were before us. Don't make it our responsibility to do what we can't do. Forgive us [what is between us and You, our sins and mistakes], forgive us [what is between us and other people, do not reveal our shortcomings and mistakes to them] and have mercy on us [in everything that awaits in the future] . You are our Patron, help us [in confrontation] with people who deny You [with those who have forgotten about faith and advocate the destruction of morality, morality, life values and holy postulates].”
According to Shamil Alyautdinov, umma.ru
Ibn Abbas reported: “When the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, was sitting with (the angel) Jibril, peace be upon him, he heard a creaking sound above him. Jibril, peace be upon him, looked up and said: “This (sound) is from the gate that opened today in heaven and has never been opened before”. Then an angel came down through the gate. Jibril (peace be upon him) said: "This angel who descended to earth has never descended before".
He (i.e. the descending angel) approached the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, greeted him and said: “Rejoice in the good news of the two lights bestowed on you (Allah), and which were not bestowed on any of the prophets before you . (These are) Surah Al-Fatiha and the last two verses from Surah Al-Baqarah. For every word you read in them, you will be given a reward. Narrated by Muslim.
The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Allah wrote a scroll two thousand years before the creation of the heavens and the earth by Him, which is kept near (His) Throne. He revealed two verses from it, with which He completed Surah al-Baqarah. If they are read in the house for three nights in a row, then the shaitan will not approach him (i.e., the house). The hadith brings Ahmad to Al-Musnad.
Ibn Masud reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Anyone who reads the last two verses from Surah Al Bakar at night, this will be enough for him.”. Narrated by Muslim.
It is narrated from the words of Abu Dharr, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Allah completed Surah “The Cow” with two verses and bestowed them on me, taking (these verses) from the treasury, which is under (His) throne. Teach (these verses) and teach (read) them to your wives and children, for (these two verses) are both a prayer, and (reading) the Qur'an, and an appeal to Allah with a prayer.
The messenger and the believers believed in what was sent down to him from the Lord. They all believed in Allah, His angels, His Scriptures and His messengers. They say, "We make no distinction between His messengers." They say: “Listen and obey! We ask for Your forgiveness, our Lord, and we will arrive to You.
Allah does not burden a person beyond his capacity. He will get what he has acquired, and what he has acquired will be against him. Our Lord! Do not punish us if we have forgotten or made a mistake. Our Lord! Do not place on us the burden that You placed on our predecessors. Our Lord! Do not burden us with what we cannot afford. Be kind to us! Forgive us and have mercy! You are our Protector. Help us to prevail over unbelieving people.
TAFSIR SHAIKHA 'ABD AR-RAHMAN AS-SA'DI
In a reliable hadith of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, it is reported that reading these two verses at night is enough for a Muslim to protect himself from evil, and the reason for this lies in the glorious meaning of these revelations. In the first verses of this sura, Allah called people to believe in all the basic provisions of the Muslim religion and commanded:
“Say: “We believed in Allah, and also in what was sent down to us and what was sent down to Ibrahim (Abraham), Ismail (Ishmael), Ishak (Isaac), Yakub (Jacob) and the tribes (the twelve sons of Yakub), that was given to Musa (Moses) and Isa (Jesus) and what was given to the prophets by their Lord. We make no distinction between them, and to Him alone we submit" (2:136).
And in this revelation, Allah said that the Messenger, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, and the faithful believed in all the main provisions of religion, believed in all the messengers and all scriptures and did not become like those who recognize part of the scripture and reject another part of it or recognize some messengers and reject others, for that is what the erring followers of distorted creeds do.
The mention of the faithful, along with the mention of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, is a great honor for the faithful Muslims. It also testifies that the religious prescriptions relating to him apply to his followers, that he carried them out in the most perfect way and surpassed in this field all other faithful and even all other God's messengers.
Then Allah reported that the faithful say: “We listen and we obey! Lord, forgive us, because we have to return to You.” They undertake to adhere to everything that the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, brought in the Qur'an and Sunnah. They listen to religious injunctions, accepting them with all their soul and submitting to them with their whole body, and their words are filled with humility before Allah and imply a request to help them in fulfilling religious duties and to forgive them for the omissions made in fulfilling the obligatory instructions and the sins they have committed. They humbly turn to Allah with a prayer that benefits them, and Allah Almighty has already answered this prayer, saying through the mouth of his Prophet: “I have already done it!”
Allah necessarily accepts these prayers from the faithful as a whole and accepts them from individual believers, if there are no factors preventing the acceptance of the prayer. Allah does not call Muslims to account for the deeds they commit by mistake or forgetfulness. He has made the Muslim sharia supremely easy and does not burden Muslims with the burdens and obligations that were so burdensome for previous religious communities. Allah did not order them to perform duties that exceed their capabilities, forgave their sins, had mercy on them and gave them victory over unbelievers.
We ask Allah Almighty through His beautiful names and qualities and through the mercy that He showed us when He taught us to follow the precepts of our religion, to put these prayers into practice for us, to fulfill the promise given by the mouth of the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, and put in order the affairs of all devout Muslims.
From this revelation follows an important rule according to which religious duties should be lightened and Muslims should be freed from embarrassment in all religious matters, as well as another rule according to which a person deserves forgiveness if, in performing the rites of worship, he violated his obligations to Allah by mistake or forgetfulness. . If, for these reasons, he violated his duties to the creatures, then he does not deserve humiliation and censure. However, he is liable if his mistake or forgetfulness caused the death of people or property, because a person does not have the right to encroach on the life or property of people either intentionally, or by mistake, or by forgetfulness.
According to sawab.info
The messenger and the believers believed in what was sent down to him from the Lord. All believed in Allah, in His angels, His scriptures, His Messengers, making no distinction between His prophets. They say [at the same time]: “We have heard and we obey! In Your [power] to forgive, our Lord, to You we return. Allah asks from everyone only to the extent of his ability. Good deeds benefit him, evil deeds harm him.” [Believers say]: “Our Lord! Do not punish us if we have forgotten or made a mistake. Our Lord! Do not place on us the burden that you placed on previous generations. Our Lord! Don't put on us what we can't do. Have pity, forgive us and have mercy, You are our Lord. So help us against the unbelieving people” (2:285-286).
We have heard many hadiths about the virtues of these two verses. Ibn Mas'ud reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Anyone who read the last two verses from Surah Al-Baqarah at night will be enough”(Muslim).
“Whoever reads the last two verses of Surah Al-Baqarah at night will be protected that night from fire and other dangers.”
“Allah completed Sura Al-Baqara with two verses and rewarded me from the treasury that is under his Most High Throne. You also learn these verses, teach them to your wives and children. These verses can also be read as a du'a.
“He who reads “Amana-r-rasula” before going to bed, as if he will perform worship until the morning”.
“For one who reads the last two verses of Surah Al-Baqarah in the evening, this is equivalent to the evening prayer”.
“Allah has given me Surah Al-Baqarah from the treasury under His Throne. It was not given to any prophet before me.".

Description of Surah an-Nas
Surahs from the Qur'an have been sent down for this mankind. From Arabic, the word "an-Nas" is translated as "People". The Almighty sent down a sura in Mecca, it contains 6 verses. The Lord turns to the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) with the requirement to always resort to His help, to seek only protection from evil from Allah. By "evil" is meant not so much the sorrows that accompany the earthly path of people, but the imperceptible evil that we ourselves commit, following the lead of our own passions, desires, whims. The Almighty calls this evil “the evil of Satan”: human passions are a genie-tempter who constantly tries to lead a person astray from the righteous path. Shaitan disappears only at the mention of Allah: that is why it is so important to read regularly and.
It must be remembered that the devil uses to deceive people those vices that are hidden in themselves, to which they often strive with all their hearts. Only an appeal to the Almighty can save a person from the evil that lives in him.

Description of Surah Al-Falyak
Sura "Dawn" Allah sent down to the Prophet in Mecca. The prayer contains 5 verses. The Almighty, turning to His Prophet (peace be upon him), requires him and all his followers to always seek salvation and protection from the Lord. A person will find salvation from Allah from all creatures that can harm him. “Evil of darkness” is an important epithet that denotes the anxiety, fear and loneliness that people experience at night: such a state is familiar to everyone. Sura "Dawn", insha Allah, protects a person from the instigations of shaitans, who seek to sow hatred between people, cut off family and friendly ties, instill envy in their souls. Prayer, insha Allah will save from the wicked, who lost the mercy of Allah because of his spiritual weakness, and now seeks to plunge other people into the abyss of sin.

Surah Al-Ikhlas
Very short, easy to remember, but at the same time, extremely effective and useful sura. To listen to Al-Ikhlas in Arabic, you can use video or MP3. The word "Al-Ikhlas" in Arabic means "Sincerity". Sura is a sincere declaration of love and devotion to Allah.
Transcription (phonetic sound of the sura in Russian):
Bismi-llayahi-rrahmaani-rrahiim
- Kul hu Allah ahad.
- Allah s-samad.
- Lam yalid wa lam yulad
- Walam yakullahu kufuan ahad.
Semantic translation into Russian:
- Say: "He is Allah, the One,
- Allah is self-sufficient.
- He did not give birth and was not born,
- and there is none equal to Him.”
Description of Surah Al-Ikhlas
Sura "Sincerity" Allah sent down to the Prophet in Mecca. Al-Ikhlas contains 4 verses. Muhammad told his disciples that once he was mockingly asked about his attitude towards the Almighty. The answer was Surah Al-Ikhlas, which contains the statement that Allah is Self-sufficient, that He is One and Only in His perfection, that He has always been, and there is no one equal to Him in strength.
With the requirement to tell them about His God, the pagans who professed polytheism turned to the Prophet (peace be upon him). The literal translation of the question they used was "What is your Lord made of?". For paganism, a material understanding of God was common: they created idols from wood and metal, worshiped animals and plants. The answer of Muhammad (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) shocked the pagans so much that they abandoned the old faith and recognized Allah.
Many hadiths point to the benefits of Al-Ikhlas. Within the framework of one article it is impossible to name all the advantages of the sura, there are so many of them. Here are just the most important ones:
In one hadith it is said how Muhammad (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) turned to people with the following question: “Isn’t each of you able to read a third of the Qur’an in a night?”. The townspeople were amazed and asked how this was possible. The Prophet replied: “Read Surah Al-Ikhlas! It is equal to one third of the Qur'an." This hadeeth suggests that in the sura "Sincerity" so much wisdom is concentrated, how much can not be found in any other text. But not one thinking person is 100% sure that this is exactly what the Prophet said, word for word, so peace be upon him, even if this hadith (the word "hadith" is translated from Arabic as "story") is good in meaning, because if he (peace be upon him) him) did not say so, then this is a slander and a lie on the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).
It is important to know: all these hadiths may not be reliable. Hadiths must be looked at for their correspondence with the Qur'an. If a hadith contradicts the Qur'an, then it must be discarded, even if it somehow manages to be put into collections of reliable hadith.
Another hadith retells the words of the Prophet to us: “If a believer is fifty times every day, then on the Day of Resurrection a voice from above will be heard over his grave: “Arise, O praiser of Allah, enter Paradise!”. In addition, the Messenger said: “If a person reads Surah Al-Ikhlas a hundred times, then Almighty Allah will forgive him the sins of fifty years, provided that he does not commit four types of sins: the sin of bloodshed, the sin of acquisitiveness and hoarding, the sin of debauchery and the sin drinking alcohol." Saying a Surah is a work that a person does for the sake of Allah. If this work is done with diligence, the Almighty will surely reward the one who prays.
Hadiths repeatedly point to the reward that is received for reading the sura "Sincerity". The reward is proportional to the number of readings of the prayer, the time spent on this. One of the most famous hadiths contains the words of the Messenger, demonstrating the incredible significance of Al-Ikhlas: “If anyone reads Surah Al-Ikhlas once, he will be overshadowed by the grace of the Almighty. Whoever reads it twice, then he and his whole family will be under the shadow of grace. If someone reads it three times, then he himself, his family and his neighbors will receive grace from above. Whoever reads it twelve times, Allah will grant twelve palaces in Paradise. Whoever reads it twenty times, he [on the Day of Judgment] will walk with the prophets like this (saying these words, the Prophet joined and raised his middle and index fingers) Whoever reads it a hundred times, the Almighty will forgive all his sins for twenty-five years except for the sin of bloodshed and the sin of default. Whoever reads it two hundred times, the sins of fifty years will be forgiven. Anyone who reads this surah four hundred times will get a reward equal to the reward of four hundred martyrs who shed blood and whose horses were wounded in battle. Whoever reads Surah Al-Ikhlas a thousand times, he will not die without seeing his place in Paradise, or until he is shown it.
Another hadith contains a kind of recommendation for people who are going on a journey or are already on the road. Travelers are instructed to recite Al-Ikhlas eleven times while grasping the doorposts of their house with both hands. If this is done, then the person will be protected on the way from shaitans, their negative impact and attempts to instill fear and uncertainty in the soul of the traveler. In addition, the recitation of the sura "Sincerity" is a guarantee of a safe return to places dear to the heart.
It is important to know: no sura in itself can help a person in any way, only Allah can help a person and believers rely on Him! And many hadiths, as we see, contradict the Koran - the direct speech of Allah Himself!
There is another option for reading Surah Al-Ikhlas - in combination with Al-Nas and Al-Falak. Each prayer is said three times. Reading these three suras is a protection from evil forces. As the prayer is said, it is necessary to blow on the person we want to protect. Surah is especially useful for children. If the baby cries, screams, kicks his legs, there are signs of the evil eye, be sure to try Al-Ikhlas, Al-Nas and Al-Falak. The effect will be stronger if you read the suras before going to bed.

Sura Yasin Allah sent Muhammad (peace be upon him) in Mecca. In this text, the Almighty informed the Prophet (sallallahu ‘aleihi wa sallam) that he is the messenger of the Lord, and from the moment of revelation, his task is to enlighten, teach and exhort the people, vegetating in the abyss of polytheism. The sura also speaks of those who dare to disobey the instructions of Allah, who refuse to accept the Messenger - these unfortunate ones will face severe punishment and universal censure.

semantic translation:
“Allah (God, Lord) ... There is no god but Him, the Eternally Living, Existing. Neither sleep nor slumber will overtake him. He owns everything in heaven and on earth. Who will intercede before Him, except by His will!? He knows what was and what will be. No one is able to comprehend even particles from His knowledge, except by His will. Heaven and Earth are embraced by the course (Great Throne) of Him, and He does not bother to care for them [About everything that is in our galactic system]. He is the Most High [by all characteristics above everything and everything], the Great [His greatness has no limits]!” (see, Holy Quran, sura “al-Baqarah”, ayat 255 (2:255)).
Ayat Al-Kursi is included in Sura Al-Baqara (translated from Arabic - a cow). According to the account in the sura, ayat 255th. It should be said right away that many prominent theologians believe that Al-Kusri is a separate sura, and not an ayat. Be that as it may, the Messenger stated that the verse is the key one in the Koran, it contains the most important statement that distinguishes Islam from other religions - the dogma of monotheism. In addition, the verse gives evidence of the greatness and infinite nature of the Lord. In this sacred text, Allah is called "Ismi 'azam" - this name is considered the most worthy name of God.
Instructional video for the correct pronunciation of Ayat Al Kursi
It is important to know: you should not read the Quran loudly in a chant, and even more so compete in it - while listening to such melodies you will fall into a trance and you will not understand the most important thing - the meaning that Allah conveyed to mankind to observe the Quran and meditate on His verses.
Surah Al-Baqarah
- the second and most voluminous in the Qur'an. The sacred text contains 286 verses that reveal the very essence of religion. The sura contains the teachings of Allah, the instruction of the Lord to Muslims, a description of how they should behave in various situations. In general, we can say that Surah Al-Baqarah is a text that regulates the whole life of a believer. The document says almost everything: about revenge, about the distribution of inheritance among the relatives of the deceased, about the use of alcoholic beverages, about playing cards and dice. Much attention is paid to the issues of marriage and divorce, the trading side of life, and relations with debtors.
From the Arabic language "Al-Baqara" is translated as "Cow". This name is associated with a parable, which is given in the sura. The parable tells about the Israelite cow and Musa, peace be upon him. In addition, the text contains many stories about the life of the Prophet and his followers. In "Al-Baqara" it is directly stated that the Koran is a guide in the life of a Muslim, which is given to him by the Almighty. In addition, in the sura there is a mention of believers who have received favor from Allah, as well as those who have angered the Almighty with disobedience and a tendency to disbelief.
Let us remember the words of the Great Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): “Do not turn your houses into graves. Shaitan flees from the house where Surah al-Baqarah is being recited. This exceptionally high assessment of the Surah "The Cow" allows us to consider it the most important in the Koran. The great significance of the sura is also emphasized by another hadith: “Read the Qur'an, because on the Day of Resurrection he will come and will intercede for his own. Read two blooming suras - suras "al-Baqara" and "Ali Imran", because on the Day of Resurrection they will appear like two clouds or two flocks of birds lined up in rows and will intercede for their own. Read Surah al-Baqarah, because there is grace and abundance in it, and without it there is sadness and annoyance, and sorcerers cannot cope with it.
In Surah Al-Baqarah, the last 2 verses are considered the main ones:
- 285. The messenger and the believers believed in what was sent down to him from the Lord. They all believed in Allah, His angels, His Scriptures and His messengers. They say, "We make no distinction between His messengers." They say: “Listen and obey! We ask for Your forgiveness, our Lord, and we will arrive to You.
- 286. Allah does not burden a person beyond his capacity. He will get what he has acquired, and what he has acquired will be against him. Our Lord! Do not punish us if we have forgotten or made a mistake. Our Lord! Do not place on us the burden that You placed on our predecessors. Our Lord! Do not burden us with what we cannot afford. Be kind to us! Forgive us and have mercy! You are our Protector. Help us to prevail over unbelieving people.
In addition, the sura contains the verse "Al-Kursi", which we have quoted above. The great meaning and incredible importance of Al-Kursi has been repeatedly emphasized by leading theologians who referred to famous hadiths. The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, calls on Muslims to read these verses, teach them, teach them to their family members, wives and children. After all, the last two verses “Al-Bakar” and “Al-Kursi” are a direct appeal to the Almighty.

Interesting facts about Surah Al-Fatiha
Undoubtedly, the sura "Al-Fatiha" is the greatest sura of the Koran. This is confirmed by the epithets that it is customary to designate this unique text: “Opening Book”, “Mother of the Quran”, etc. The Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him!) repeatedly pointed out the special significance and value of this sura. For example, the Prophet said the following: "Whoever did not read the Opening Book (i.e. Surah al-Fatiha), he did not perform a prayer." In addition, the following words belong to him: “Whoever makes a prayer without reading the Opening Book in it, then it is not complete, not complete, not complete, not finished.” In this hadith, special attention is drawn to the threefold repetition of the word "not complete." The Prophet framed the phrase in such a way as to increase the impact on the listener, to emphasize that without reading Al-Fatih, prayer may not reach the Almighty.
Every Muslim should know that the Al-Fatiha sura is an indispensable element of prayer. The text deserves the honor of being in front of any sura of the Qur'an. "Al-Fatiha" is the most read sura in the Islamic world, the verses from it are pronounced constantly and in each of the rak'ahs.
One of the hadiths claims that the Almighty will reward the reader of the Al-Fatiha surah to the same extent as the person who read 2/3 of the Koran. Another hadith quotes the words of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him!): “I received 4 things from the special treasures of ‘Arsh (Throne), from which no one ever received anything. These are Surah Fatiha, Ayatul Kursi, the last verses of Surah Bakara and Surah Kausar. The colossal significance of Surah Al-Fatiha is also emphasized by the following hadith: “Four times Iblis had to grieve, cry and tear his hair out: the first when he was cursed, the second when he was driven from heaven to earth, the third when the Prophet (sallallahu ' alayhi wa sallam) received the fourth prophecy when Surah Fatiha was sent down.
“Muslim Sharif” contains one very revealing hadith, which cites the words of the Great Prophet (may Allah bless him and be present”: “Today one of the doors of heaven opened, which had never opened before. And one angel descended from it, who had never before descended. And the angel said: "Receive the good news about two nurs that have never been given to anyone before you. One is the sura "Fatiha", and the second is the end of the sura "Baqarah (the last three verses)".
What is the first thing that comes to mind in this hadeeth? Of course, the fact that the suras "Fatiha" and "Bakara" are called "nurs" in it. Translated from Arabic, this word means "light." On the Day of Judgment, when Allah will judge people for their earthly path, the read suras will become a light that will attract the attention of the Almighty and allow Him to separate the righteous from the sinners.
"Al-Fatiha" is "Ismi A'zam", that is, a text that should be read in any situation. Even in ancient times, doctors noticed that the sura written in rose oil on the bottom of porcelain dishes makes the water exceptionally healing. The patient needs to drink water for 40 days. In a month he will feel relief, God willing. To improve the condition with a toothache, headache, pain in the abdomen, the sura must be read exactly 7 times.

Peace be upon you, mercy and blessings of Allah Almighty
And remind, for the reminder benefits believers. (Quran, 51:55)
(Sura of Medina) In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Merciful! This Surah is of Medinan origin and consists of 286 verses. It was sent down to Muhammad - may Allah bless him and welcome! after Hijra to Medina. Sura "al-Baqarah" is the longest sura of the Qur'an in terms of the order of the suras in it. This sura begins with a detailed explanation of the thoughts contained at the end of sura al-Fatiha. She emphasizes that the Qur'an is a guide sent by Allah to the God-fearing. It tells about the believers to whom Allah granted His favor, and about the infidels and hypocrites who provoked the wrath of Allah. This surah points out the truth of the Qur'an, its true call to piety and the fact that people are divided into three categories: those who truly believe in Allah, those who do not recognize Allah, and hypocrites. The sura encourages people to worship only Allah alone, contains a warning to the unbelievers and good news for the believers. Surah al-Baqara tells about the sons of Israel (Israel), reminds them of the days of Allah's mercy to them, of the times of Musa (Moses) - peace be upon him! - and about the story of the sons of Israel with him filled with amazing events. Almost half of the sura is dedicated to reminding the sons of Israel about the efforts of Ibrahim (Abraham) and Ismail to build the Kaaba. These types of stories are used as admonition and advice to believers to think before they act, taking as a lesson what happened to Jews and Christians. The sura contains an appeal to the people of the Koran, indicates the commonality between the people of Musa and the people of Muhammad thanks to Ibrahim (his leadership and posterity) and talks about the Qibla. This surah speaks of monotheism and the signs of Allah confirming this, polytheism, forbidden food, and that only Allah can prohibit and allow. It explains what piety is, and also contains the instructions of Allah regarding fasting, testament, acquiring people's property by fraudulent means, retribution, fighting in the path of Allah, pilgrimage (hajj), small pilgrimage (umrah), wine, maysir (gambling), marriage and divorce, setting a period for wives after a divorce during which they cannot marry another person, feeding a child by a mother, spending money, trading, IOUs, usury, debts, etc. The sura also speaks of creed, monotheism and resurrection - all this is clearly stated in the sura in order to guide a person on the true path and teach him how to conduct his affairs correctly. The sura ends with the prayer of the believers, addressed to Allah, to support them and help them against the infidel people. The sura contains a number of edifications: following the direct path of Allah and his religion leads to happiness in the present and future life; a reasonable person should not, calling others to piety and good deeds, himself deviate from this; good is preferred and evil is unacceptable. Sura "al-Baqarah" clearly indicates that religion is based on three postulates: the unconditional recognition of Allah, the true belief in the Day of Resurrection and Judgment, and good deeds. Reward is given for faith and deeds. The condition of true faith is the complete and humble obedience of the soul and heart to everything that was sent down to the prophet. The surah says that non-Muslims will be dissatisfied with Muslims as long as Muslims do not follow their religion. Guardianship according to Sharia should belong only to those who believe in Allah and people of justice, and not to unbelievers, wicked, unjust. Faith in the religion of Allah in the form in which it was sent down requires unity and harmony among people, and the violation of this condition leads to discord and schism. Patience and prayer help a person to accomplish great deeds. Allah allowed His servants to eat good food and forbade food that is harmful to man. And only Allah has the right to allow and forbid. If a person, due to circumstances, is forced to eat forbidden food in order to save his life, this will not be a sin. Indeed, Allah does not impose on a person anything that is impossible for him. It also points out that no one will be punished for the atrocities committed by others; pointed out such a quality as virtue, and that a person should not expose himself to unnecessary danger in order to achieve his goals, which he can achieve by generally accepted actions; on the duty of a Muslim towards himself and others and on his obligations to the Creator. Religion forbids violence. Islam allows fighting only to defend itself and secure the freedom and sovereignty of Islam in its society. Each person should try to live according to the laws of Allah in the present life, preparing himself for the future life. Faith and patience lead to the victory of the just believing minority over the unjust unbelieving majority. It is forbidden to unjustly take the property of others. A person is rewarded only for his deeds, and not for the deeds of other people. A reasonable person understands the wise essence of Sharia, which contains truth, justice and protects the interests of people
[#] 141. Why do you Jews and Christians argue about these people? This is a people who have already left: for them what they have acquired, and for you what you have acquired. And you will not be asked for what they did
[#] 142. Foolish Jews and foolish polytheists and hypocrites will say, condemning the believers: "What turned them away from the Qibla, towards which they worshiped?" Tell them (O Muhammad!): "In the power of Allah is the east and the west, and all directions. He chooses which direction to turn to the Qibla. He leads whomever He wishes along the righteous path. In accordance with the Scripture sent down to Muhammad, the real Qibla is in the Kaaba.
[#] 143. We have made you, Muslims, a community of mediators, endowed with prudence and wisdom, so that you are witnesses of human deeds and that the messenger is a witness of your deeds and guides you on the righteous path, and that you are guided by his Sunnah even after his death. First We made the Qibla in Jerusalem, which you, Muhammad, held. This was done in order to recognize those who are obedient to Allah and follow the Prophet Muhammad, and those who, due to excessive, fanatical love for their Arab family and the heritage of Ibrahim, are not submissive to Allah and do not want to follow the righteous path, indicated in the Quran. Turning towards Jerusalem was difficult, but not for those whom Allah led on a straight path. The one who turns to Jerusalem at the right time, when he was commanded, will never lose faith. Indeed, Allah is not such as to destroy your faith. Allah is gentle and merciful with people!
[#] 144. We see how you (O Muhammad!) turned your face to the sky, hoping that Allah would send down a Revelation to you, suggesting you to turn towards the Kaaba instead of Jerusalem: after all, you love the Kaaba, because it is the Qibla of Ibrahima, the first of the messengers and forefather of the Jews and Arabs, and in her is the House of Ibrahim. Indeed, this is a common Qibla, different from the Qibla of the Jews. And so We turn you to the Qiblah, with which you will be pleased. Turn your face towards the Forbidden Mosque! And, believers, wherever you are, turn your faces in her direction! The people who have been given the Scripture condemn you for turning towards the Kaaba, although they know from their Scriptures that this is the command of the Lord, that you are the people of the Kaaba and that Allah predetermines the Qibla for every religion, but they want to sow doubt in your hearts regarding to your religion and turn you away from it. Allah does not remain indifferent to what you do!
[#] 145. Those who have been given the Scripture do not recognize your Qibla because of stubbornness and unwillingness to follow the indicated path, and no matter what proof you, O messenger, give them, they still will not turn to your Qibla. If the Jews hope that you will turn (O Muhammad!) to their Qibla and link their acceptance of the Islamic religion with this, then they hope in vain. You will not turn to their Qiblah. And those who have been given the Scripture do not follow the Qibla of others. Christians do not follow the Qibla of the Jews, and Jews do not follow the Qibla of Christians. Each community thinks that only it is right. Follow your Qibla and don't listen to them. And if you follow the path of their passions after knowledge has come to you, you will certainly then be from the wicked.
[#] 146. Those to whom We have given the Scripture know that turning to the Qiblah in Mecca is the truth, and they know that you are the messenger who is mentioned in the Scriptures sent down to him and which say that you pray, turning to side of the Kaaba. They know this truth as well as they know their sons, but there are those among them who hide this truth, although they know it, following their passions out of fanaticism for their religion in order to maintain their power and mislead you.
[#] 147. Truth comes from your Lord, Allah Almighty (O Muhammad!). Be sure and do not listen to the lies that unbelievers speak. Do not be one of those who doubt the Qibla in Mecca!
[#] 148. The Qibla to which We turned you is your Qibla and the Qibla of your community. Each community has its own Qibla, where it turns during prayer in accordance with its religion. There is no superiority in this. Try to overtake each other in good deeds, and Allah will reward you for this. Wherever you are, Allah will gather you all on the Day of Resurrection. Indeed, Allah is powerful over every thing - over death and over resurrection!
[#] 149. And wherever you come from, and wherever you are - at home or on the road, turn your face in prayer towards the Forbidden Mosque, for this is the truth from your All-Forgiving Lord. Follow you and your community this truth. Allah does not remain indifferent to your deeds and deeds and will reward you for this. Verily, He knows all your deeds!
[#] 150. And wherever you come out, turn your face towards the Forbidden Mosque, and wherever you are, at home or on the road, turn your faces, the community of Muhammad, in her direction, so as not to call unjust people , opposing themselves to you, censures if you do not turn to the Qibla indicated to you by Allah. Then the Jews will say: "How does Muhammad pray with his face turned towards Jerusalem, while the messenger mentioned in our Scripture should pray with his face towards the Kaaba?" And the polytheists from the Arabs will say: "Why does Muhammad not turn towards the Qibla of Ibrahim, although he says that he adheres to his religion?" The wicked and deviant from the path of Allah from both groups will say that you turn towards the Kaaba because you love your community and your homeland very much. Do not be afraid of them - because they will not be able to harm you - but be afraid and do not disobey Me, so that I can complete your mercy - maybe, thanks to this Qibla, you will stand firmly on the righteous path!
[#] 151. You began to turn your face towards the Forbidden Mosque after We appointed you a messenger from among you: he reads to you Our verses, teaches you Scripture and wisdom, cleanses you - your souls and minds - from the filth of polytheism, immorality and wicked habits and teaches you what you did not know before. Previously, you lived in paganism, in deep error and did not follow the righteous path of truth.
[#] 152. Remember Me, believers, by the fulfillment of My commandments. I will remember you as my reward. Be grateful to Me for good and do not disobey My commands!
[#] 153. O believers, turn for help to patience and prayer - the basis of Islamic rites. Indeed, Allah favors the one who is patient and steadfast in spirit!
[#] 154. Truly, patience leads to good and happiness in the next life and the next! Do not give up fighting in the path of Allah and do not be afraid of death! People who died in the way of God are not dead! No! They are alive, in paradise, but those who are alive in the next life do not understand this.
[#] 155. Patience is the believer's shield and weapon. With it, he overcomes the difficulties and troubles he encounters. We test you in one way or another: fear, hunger, lack, some loss of property, life of loved ones and fruits. Only perseverance will save you from these ordeals. Give joy (O Muhammad!) to those who are patient,
[#] 156. those who, when calamity befalls them, believe that good and calamity are from Allah, the Omnipresent, and say: "Indeed, we are in the power of Allah, and only to Him will we return! We thank Him for blessings and endure disasters in both reward and punishment
[#] 157. These are those on whom the blessing and mercy of their Lord, and they go the right way
[#] 158. Just as Allah exalted the Kaaba, making it the Qibla, towards which Muslims need to turn during prayer, He exalted "as-Safa" and "al-Marwa" - two hills, making them reserved places of God for performing one of the rites of the Hajj. And there is no sin in the fact that one who makes a pilgrimage to the House or visits it, after circumambulating the Kaaba, will walk between these two hills. There were people among you who did not want to do this, because it was done in the time of paganism. But, truly, this is one of the rituals of Islam. The believer should strive for good deeds. Allah knows all the deeds of the believers and will reward them for it.
[#] 159. Those who denied your religion are divided into two groups: the first - those who know the Scripture and the truth, but deliberately withhold it because of stubbornness; the second - unbelievers, whose hearts are so blinded that they do not know the truth and believe in polytheism, and not in the One God. The People of the Book, who have learned (O Muhammad!) in the signs of your truth, comprehended the truth of your religion, but hide from the people what We sent down to them from the clear signs of direct guidance, after We have made it clear to the people in the Book, Allah will curse them and will not spare them, and the cursing believers, jinn and angels will curse them, wishing them to lose the mercy of Allah
[#] 160. Except those who turned to Allah with repentance, did good and explained what was hidden about the Messenger and Islam. Allah will accept their repentance and forgive their sins: after all, He is Merciful, Sparing and forgives the sins of people!
[#] 161. Those who disbelieved and died being disbelievers and did not repent - the curse of Allah, angels and all righteous people is upon them!
[#] 162. They will remain forever under this curse, and in hell their punishment will not be lightened and they will not be given respite if they ask
[#] 163. Your God is One! There is no other deity but Him, the Gracious, the Merciful! He was merciful to His servants in their creation and creation
[#] 164. Allah sent signs to every reasonable person about His existence and Divine power. Truly, in the structure of the heavens, where the planets regularly move and from where heat and light come for our world, in the creation of the earth, where there is sea and land, in the useful change of day and night, in ships that sail on the seas to transport people and the necessary loads, in the water that Allah brings down from the sky and revives the earth, plants and livestock with it, in everything that He has scattered on the earth, in the change of winds and the movement of clouds forced to rush between heaven and earth - the signs of Allah for those who understands! Was it created by itself, or is it the creation of Allah the Omniscient and Almighty?
[#] 165. Despite the clear signs of Allah, among people there are those whose hearts are blinded, and they honor other deities along with Allah. They listen to them, honor and love them, as they should love only one God. And those who believe love the One Allah and always sincerely obey Him. But if misfortune befalls the polytheists, they begin to doubt their deities and turn to Almighty Allah. If these wicked people knew the punishment that they will undergo on the Day of Retribution, they would understand that Allah is almighty over everything and severe in His punishment, and they would not commit their sinful deeds.
[#] 166. On the Day of Retribution, those who led others, who were an example to others in unbelief and disobedience, will separate from those who followed them and say to them: "We did not call you to follow us on a sinful path It was your desire and unreasonable behavior." The ties and friendships that were between them in the near life will break, and those who followed will become enemies with those who followed them.
[#] 167. And those who followed them will understand that they were in error, following an unrighteous path, and will say: “Oh, if it were possible for us to return from here! We would separate from them just as they separated now from us!" So Allah will present them their sinful deeds, and they will repent, being thrown into hell, and there is no way out for them from the fire.
[#] 168. O people! From what is on earth, eat only good and permitted by Allah. Do not follow the devil who tempts you to eat forbidden food or refuse what Allah has allowed. After all, you already know that Satan is your sworn enemy and pushes you to do bad deeds.
[#] 169. Shaitan pushes you to evil, vile deeds. He only harms you. He will sow doubts in you, excite the imagination with false illusions. And you will raise against Allah that which you yourselves do not know about what is forbidden and permitted.
[#] 170. Those who do not follow the straight path are accustomed to follow what their fathers followed. And when they are called to follow what Allah sent down, they answer: "No, we will not give up what we found our fathers on." Preferring the "path of the fathers" over the direct path indicated by Allah is a great sin. Is it possible even then, when their fathers were deprived of understanding and did not follow the straight path?
[#] 171. The one who calls to the Truth of Allah the unbelievers who deny His signs is like a shepherd who shouts at the cattle, and she cannot distinguish words, but only hears the call and cries and does not understand anything: they are deaf, dumb, blind to the truth, they say nothing good and do not understand
[#] 172. We permitted the people to eat the lawful food which We provided them on earth, and We forbade them to follow in the footsteps of Satan. If they do so, they will walk the straight path of truth. And if they do not do this, We will only show the believers what is permitted and what is forbidden, and direct them to a straight path. O you who believe! Eat from the good food that We have provided for you and thank Allah for His mercy in allowing you good food and guiding you on the path of obedience to Him so that your worship of Him will be perfect!
[#] 173. Forbidden food is not what unbelievers talk about. It is forbidden for you, O believers, to eat only carrion, blood, pig meat and that which is slaughtered with the name of others, and not of Allah. Whoever is forced to eat forbidden food, without being impious or disobedient, there is no sin on him, provided that he does not eat more of this forbidden food than is required to satisfy hunger, and does not seek to get it, as they did in times of ignorance. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful!
[#] 174. But there are those who know who hide parts of the Scripture sent down by Allah in order to get some privileges in their lives: after all, the Jews hid many things from the Torah about the messenger and his attributes, fearing that those who followed the teachings of the Torah would become Muslims, and they will lose their power and privileges. Those who hide what Allah sent down in the Torah, and thereby acquire something of little value from transient blessings, they fill their wombs only with fire. Allah will not speak to them on the Day of Resurrection and will not purify them. For them - a strong, painful punishment!
[#] 175. They are those who choose to go astray over the straight path of Allah and thereby deserve punishment instead of forgiveness. They will be punished in the Hereafter and will not be forgiven. Thus, they bought falsehood for truth and error for the straight path of Allah. It is amazing how they are not afraid of punishment and do everything that leads them to it!
[#] 176. The punishment they are going to is retribution for their disbelief in the Book of Allah, sent down to them with the truth. Those who love to quarrel and argue among themselves, have moved away from the truth, disagreeing with this Scripture, distorted the Scripture of Allah, explaining it incorrectly, of course, they will be in schism.
[#] 177. People talk a lot about Qibla - where should they turn their faces: to the east or to the west. But this is not the expression of piety. Piety and goodness are based on the foundations of true faith, virtue and worship: firstly, faith in Allah, on the Day of Resurrection and Judgment, as a punishment and reward in the future life, faith in angels, in the Holy Scriptures sent down by Allah and in the prophets; secondly, a voluntary donation from one's property, despite the love for it, to poor relatives and orphans, the needy, travelers who do not have money to continue their journey, those who ask, which the need forced to ask, and also for the release of slaves; thirdly, standing up ritual prayer by the hour; fourthly, the distribution of cleansing mercy (zakat); fifthly, the fulfillment of their promises; sixthly, patience and perseverance in misfortunes, disasters and during wars and battles with enemies. Those who possess all these virtues and who truly believe, they are God-fearing, estranged from sins.
[#] 178. In relation to the premeditated murder, Allah has prescribed laws (sharia) for the believers. O those who believe! Do not follow the unjust retribution of the pagans. We have prescribed for you the retribution for willful murder: the free man for the free man, the slave for the slave, and the woman for the woman. The basis of retribution is to kill the killer. If those who are entitled to retribution forgive the murderer, they will be entitled to a ransom for the murdered. They shouldn't torture the killer. The killer must immediately pay for his crime. This Muslim Sharia is more humane than the law of the Torah, where retribution means - to kill the murderer. In Islamic Sharia, relief from Allah and mercy, since those who have the right to retribution can forgive the murderer. Whoever does not follow the Shari'ah in this and violates it, there will be a painful punishment in the present and future life.
[#] 179. Great is the mercy of Allah in the Shari'ah regarding retribution. Thanks to her, a safe and peaceful life reigns in society. Anyone who has the idea of intentionally killing knows that he himself will die because of this, and therefore will consider committing a crime. So he saves his life and the life of the one he wanted to kill. If you commit an act of retribution and kill an innocent for a criminal, as they did before, under paganism, then there will be no protection and security in society. Reasonable people should understand that for them life is in retribution. Maybe they will be God-fearing!
[#] 180. As the Sharia of retribution is for the benefit of people and the preservation of peace in society, so the Sharia of the testament is aimed at the benefit of the family and the preservation of its integrity. Anyone who feels the approach of death must properly dispose of his property - leave part of his property to parents and close relatives who do not have the right to inherit. He needs to do this wisely so that none of the needy is deprived. A will is an obligation for the faithful and the God-fearing
[#] 181. A will must be executed and it cannot be changed if it is fair. Whoever, after listening to the will, then changes it, he will take a big sin on his soul and will be severely punished for it. The testator is not to blame. Indeed, Allah is Hearing, Knowing, Omniscient!
[#] 182. If the will is unjust and deprives poor relatives of part of the inheritance, and everything is bequeathed to rich relatives or distant relatives, or poor non-relatives, then there is no sin in striving to correct the injustice of the will. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful!
[#] 183. O those who believe! We have decreed for you retribution and a testament to transform your society and preserve your families. We also prescribe fasting for you to educate your souls, improve your behavior, preferring you to a dumb animal that obeys only its passions and instincts. Fasting is prescribed for you in the same way as it is prescribed for those who were before you - perhaps you will be God-fearing! Fasting educates and strengthens your souls
[#] 184. You are ordered to fast on certain days. If Allah had willed, He would have ordered you to fast for more days, but He has not prescribed for you in fasting that which you cannot afford. The one among you who is sick, and fasting can be harmful in this illness, and the one who is on the road, have the right not to fast. He can fast the same number of days at other times (when he returns from a trip or recovers). And those for whom fasting is harmful for any reason (for example, old age, incurable diseases) may not fast, but in return they must feed the poor. Whoever fasts not only during the obligatory fasting - Ramadan - but of his own free will will fast additionally - this is better for him. After all, fasting is always for the benefit of those who know the rites of religion
[#] 185. For the prescribed fast, the month of Ramadan. He is dear to Allah. In this month, the Holy Quran was sent down with clear signs and verses leading to good, as a guide for all people and as an explanation of the direct path that separates truth from falsehood. Who among you is at home this month, he must keep fasting during it; and one who is sick or on a journey may fast the same number of days at other times. Allah does not want hardship for you, but wants relief so that you fully endure the fast and praise Allah for guiding you to the straight path. Maybe you will be grateful!
[#] 186. I know what My servants are doing. When My servants (O Muhammad!) ask you: "Is Allah close to us so that He knows what we hide, declare or leave?" Tell them (O Muhammad!) that I am closer to them than they can imagine. The proof of this is the prayer of the one who asks, reaching Me at once. And I answer the one who prays when he calls to Me. May they respond to Me with faith in Me and obedience. Maybe they will go the right way!
[#] 187. It is permitted for you, believers, to approach your wives on the night of fasting, when you are not fasting: after sunset and before dawn. Your wives are peace and comfort for you, and you are peace and comfort for them. Allah understands your instincts and knows that you did not approach your wives at night in Ramadan, and therefore He made it easy for you by allowing you to come to them at night. And now, having understood that this is allowed for you, touch your wives, eat and drink until the white thread differs from the black one in front of you at dawn, then fast. From early morning until sunset, you must fast and not touch your wives, indulging in pious thoughts, praying and reciting the Qur'an in mosques and places of worship. These are the laws prescribed by Allah on fasting and constant pious stay in places of worship in the last days of Ramadan to enter "i" tikaf "(a special state of mind, detached from worldly fuss), when you can not touch women. Thus explains His laws and edifications Allah for people to be God-fearing and refrain from sinful deeds
[#] 188. Do not seize other people's property by bribery and bribery. You are not allowed to take part of other people's wealth through criminal means unless you have a right determined by Allah (the right to an inheritance, as a gift or a fair agreement). Do not bribe judges and those in power, and do not resort to perjury or false evidence to unjustly take possession of other people's property, knowing in your heart that you are doing an evil deed. For this you will be punished.
[#] 189. You (O Muhammad!) are asked about the new moon - about the emerging new moon, which seems thin as a thread, and then increases until it is full; then again begins to decrease and becomes the same as at the beginning. He is not in one state, like the sun. They ask what this change means and that there is a new moon every month. Tell them (O Muhammad!) that the repetition of these new moons, the waxing and waning of the moon, have significance in present life and in religion. They determine for people the timing of their affairs in their present life, and also determine the time of Hajj (pilgrimage), which is one of the foundations of your religion. If the moon is in the same state as the sun, you will not be able to determine the course of time in this life or the time of Hajj. The fact that you do not know the meaning of the changes of the moon does not cause doubts in the wisdom of the Creator. It is not piety to enter houses from the back, unlike other people, but piety is to fear the wrath of Allah. So enter houses through doors like others, and walk in the righteous path of Allah, so that He will be pleased with you, and fear Him. Maybe this will be your happiness, luck and salvation from the fire of hell.
[#] 190. God-fearing is manifested in enduring difficulties in the name of Allah and in obedience to Him. Fighting the enemies of Allah is difficult. Fight in the way of Allah with those who fight with you. After all, you are allowed to fight those who attack you, but do not launch attacks yourself and do not kill the one who does not fight against you. Don't overstep the limits. Allah does not like the aggressive!
[#] 191. And kill those who started the battle with you, where you meet, drive them out of Mecca - your homeland - from where they drove you out! Feel free to do it - because they did worse to you! In order to turn the believers away from Islam, they subjected them to such torment in Mecca that the believers in Allah left their homeland, taking their faith with them. The Forbidden Mosque is Holy and do not trample on it. But if the unbelievers dishonor her by fighting you there, kill them and you will win with the help of Allah. Such is the reward of the disbelievers!
[#] 192. If they hold back and accept Islam, Allah will forgive them what they did before and will spare them. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving, Merciful!
[#] 193. Fight them until they stop persecuting you and until the religion of Allah wins. All religion belongs to Allah alone. But if they believe in Allah and escape punishment, then there is no need to fight with them, and there should be no enmity, except for the unrighteous, who commit sins and do injustice.
[#] 194. If they fight you in the forbidden month, don't refuse to fight them. The forbidden month for you is also a forbidden month for them. Forbidden month - for the forbidden month. If they violate it, you must protect yourself. In the forbidden and sacred - retribution and equality. If anyone transgresses the prohibitions against you and your sacred places, then you also transgress them against him, just as he transgressed against you. And fear Allah, and do not increase your punishment and retribution. And know that Allah is with the pious!
[#] 195. Fighting in the way of Allah requires a willingness to fight and spend out of your wealth. Spend in the way of Allah in preparation for battle and do not give it up lest the enemy overcome and subdue you. Do not seek destruction, on the contrary, do whatever is necessary with wisdom and piety. Allah loves those who do good, who do everything perfectly!
[#] 196. And do the Hajj (great pilgrimage) and Umrah (small pilgrimage) in the best way for the sake of Allah, and not for the sake of any benefit in the present life and glory. If you intend to perform Hajj and die and entered into ihram, and the enemy prevented you on your way, then bring a sacrifice from sacrificial animals - a sheep, a camel, a cow - according to your wealth, and distribute it to the poor. Then you can shave or cut your hair and finish your ihram. If one of you is sick or has some kind of ailment in his head and had to cut his hair, then - a ransom by fasting or alms, or some pious deeds. He may shave or cut his hair, but for this he must fast for three days or feed six poor people for one day, or sacrifice a sheep and distribute the meat to the poor and needy. When you are in a safe place where peace reigns and no one interferes with your path, and you intend to perform Hajj and Umrah, and after Umrah, you interrupted Ihram before performing Hajj, then you will need to enter Ihram again for Hajj , sacrifice a sheep and distribute to the poor near the Forbidden Mosque. Whoever is unable to make a sacrifice must fast for three days in Mecca during the Hajj and seven days after returning home. If he is a resident of Mecca, then he does not need, in this case, to make a sacrifice and fast. Fear the wrath of Allah and know that Allah is severe in punishment!
[#] 197. Hajj - famous months since the time of Prophet Ibrahim - peace be upon him! These are the months: Shawwal, Dhu-l-Qada, Dhu-l-Hijja. Whoever performs Hajj during these months must observe the rites of Hajj in order to purify their souls. During the Hajj, one should not approach women (this includes: sexual intercourse, kissing, talking on these topics - all this is a sin before Allah). Sin during the Hajj is also debauchery and strife. And the good and good that you do, Allah knows and will reward you for it. Look for a supply for a future life in godliness - the best supply for the God-fearing! O you possessors of reason, fear Allah and treat your deeds with piety!
[#] 198. Some of you were embarrassed to engage in trade during Hajj in order to earn a living. Don't be embarrassed and do the right thing. There is no sin on you if you seek mercy from Allah. When the pilgrims leave Arafat and reach Muzdalifah, they need to remember Allah in a reserved place - on the Holy Mount Muzdalifah. From here they need to cry out to God, saying: "Lubbaika!", "Labbaika!", i.e. "Here I am in front of You! O Allah! Here I am in front of You! You have no equal! Glory and praise to You! All power belongs to You!" Allahu Akbar! i.e. Allah is great! This is for the pilgrims to glorify Allah, His deeds, glory, mercy, and for the fact that He directed them to the righteous path of the true religion and the correct rites during the Hajj. But before that they were from the deluded
[#] 199. Among the Arabs there were people, namely, the people of Quraish, who did not stand on Mount Arafat, although they knew that their forefather, the prophet Ibrahim, stood on this mountain. This is because they wanted to distinguish themselves from other people, thinking that they are the inhabitants of the House of Allah - the Kaaba, which is wrong. Their refusal to leave the Kaaba and climb Arafat, they explained their special reverence for the Kaaba and the fact that this is allowed. Allah demanded that they abandon the customs of paganism and stand on Mount Arafat, and after sunset, head towards Muzdalifah, like all people. All people are equal in observing the rites of Islam. They must ask for forgiveness from Allah in these sacred places. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful!
[#] 200. Having completed your pious deeds and rites of Hajj, leave the customs of paganism - boasting about your fathers and ancestors - and give praise to Allah, and remember Him as you remember your fathers, but with even greater strength. He is your Benefactor and the Benefactor of your fathers, and places of Hajj are places of prayers and requests for goodness and mercy from Allah. Among the pilgrims there are those who ask Allah for favors in the next life and do not think about the future life. This has no share in the future life
[#] 201. Among people there are those who turn with their sincere hearts to God, asking to grant them goodness in the next and in the next life and save them from fiery torment
[#] 202. These people - a portion of what they have gained by turning to Allah and relying on Him. Indeed, Allah will reward everyone according to his deserts. He's quick to count!
[#] 203. And give praise to Allah on the days indicated, when the pilgrims stone the devil in the valley of Mina, on the 11th, 12th and 13th of Dhu-l-Hijji. Whoever leaves Mina after two days (i.e. the 12th), then there is no sin on him, and whoever remains on the third day (i.e. the 13th), there will be no sin on him either. The most important thing is piety. Know that you will stand before Allah and will be held accountable for your actions!
[#] 204. If piety is the main thing, then damage and damage will be the share of one whose speech does not coincide with his intentions hidden in his heart. These speeches may please you (O Muhammad!) in your next life, especially since he calls Allah as a witness to what his soul and heart are overflowing with. But this type of person - the most stubborn and merciless in bickering - is your enemy.
[#] 205. And if he is in power, he will not strive for the good and good of people, but will spread wickedness, devastation, destroy crops, people and herds. Allah does not love such a person, Allah does not love wickedness!
[#] 206. If they say to him: "Fear God!" - he is indignant, believing that this advice humiliates his pride and dignity. Pride overwhelms him and leads to the commission of sin. Gehenna will be his property. What an ugly place!
[#] 207. There is a big difference between this hypocrite and a sincere believer who sacrifices himself, striving for the favor of Allah and the victory of the word of truth. If these - sincere believers - were engaged in the affairs of other people, then this would be a blessing from Allah. Allah is gentle with His servants and removes evil from them thanks to the protection of true believers
[#] 208. O you believers, be peace-loving and friendly, be obedient to God, do not make tribal differences, as they did in paganism, and do not look for other reasons for disagreement! Do not follow in the footsteps of Satan who leads you to schism. After all, he is an obvious enemy for you!
[#] 209. And if you deviate from the direct path of Allah, to which you were called, after the clear signs of the righteous path of Allah came to you, then know that Allah is Great! He punishes those who deviate from the straight path, and He is wise in assessing the punishment for sins.
[#] 210. Are these unbelievers waiting for Allah and His angels to descend to them under the shadow of the clouds, so that they can see Him and believe in Islam? This issue has been resolved. After all, only the Lord can decide all matters. He alone disposes of them as he wishes.
[#] 211. Ask the children of Israel, how many clear signs We sent down on them about the authenticity of the prophet? This is the mercy of Allah, but they deviated and changed the meaning of this mercy. These clear signs were not enough for their piety and enlightenment of the soul and mind, and they went deeper into error and sins. Whoever betrays the favors of Allah will be punished. Indeed, Allah is strong in punishment!
[#] 212. Desire for pleasures in the next life leads to deviation from faith in Allah and debauchery. The next life is adorned before the unbelievers, and they mock those who believe, think about the future life and fear the wrath of Allah. Those who are humble will be superior to the disbelievers on the Day of Resurrection. And the fact that these unbelievers have a lot of property and money in our lives does not mean that Allah prefers them. Allah's destiny in this life does not depend on belief or unbelief. Indeed, Allah, at His will, endows some without number to tempt them, and sends others a little to test them.
[#] 213. Once people were one community. But they had different moral foundations: some had a desire for goodness, others indulged in debauchery. Therefore, they differed in opinions and behavior. Allah sent prophets to them as good harbingers and warners, and sent down with them the Scriptures with the truth leading to the straight path of piety, in order to judge in what they differed. Only those who believed, Allah led to the truth by His permission. Allah guides whomever He wills to the straight path
[#] 214. Or do you think to enter paradise simply because you have become Muslims without experiencing what those people who were before you were subjected to? Calamities and sorrows befell them, and their spirit was so shaken that the messenger and the believers with him said: "When will help and victory come from Allah?" Indeed, the help of Allah is always near!
[#] 215. Those who believe ask you (O Muhammad!), what should they spend in alms? Tell them to spend what they earn in a direct, honest way. The good that they donate goes to parents, neighbors, orphans, the needy, wanderers (travelers). Whatever you do good, Allah knows and rewards for it
[#] 216. If donations for orphans and the poor protect society from within, then the battle protects society from external enemies. O you Muslims, fighting is prescribed for you to defend your religion and yourself, and you hate it. And maybe what you love is bad for you. And maybe what you hate is good for you. Allah alone knows what is good for you, but you do not know. Listen to what is prescribed for you!
[#] 217. Muslims hate fighting in forbidden months, so they ask you (O Muhammad!): "Should fighting be fought in forbidden months?" Tell them that it is a great sin to wage war in the forbidden months, but to deviate people from faith in Him and from the Forbidden Mosque, expel the believers in Allah who visit it and expel Muslims from Mecca, as your enemies did, is an even greater sin before Allah. They harmed the Muslims in order to turn them away from the Islamic religion. And this is more than murder. Therefore, fighting in forbidden months is permitted to stop this kind of evil. O Muslims, these people are unjust, and they, not accepting your logic and justice, will fight you until they turn you away from your religion, if they can. And the noble deeds of those of you who are weakened by their attacks, turn away from the faith and die unbelievers, will become futile in the present and in the next life. These are the inhabitants of the fire, they will remain in it forever!
[#] 218. Those who sincerely believed and left their homeland (moved from Mecca to Medina), defending the Islamic religion and fighting in the way of Allah, will receive a great reward from Allah and His mercy, even if they did not always fulfill their duties properly. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving, Merciful!
[#] 219. They ask you (O Muhammad!) about wine and maysir. Say that there is a great sin in both of them: harm to health, mind and money, they cause hatred and arouse aggressiveness among people, although sometimes there is a benefit (fun or an easy win). There is more sin in them than good, and they must be shunned. You are also asked about how much you should spend on good deeds. Tell them to spend on good deeds and charity from what they can save and can easily distribute. So Allah explains to you the verses containing instructions - maybe you will think about the results of your actions in the next and the next life!
[#] 220. And they ask you (O Muhammad!) about orphans and what Islam says about duties to them. Tell them it's a good deed to do good to them. Take them home and treat them in a way that will fix them, not ruin them. They are your brothers in the next life. Allah knows who does evil and who does good. Beware! After all, if Allah wanted, He would deprive you and leave them without pointing out what needs to be done. And then they would have been brought up on hatred of society, and this would have caused damage to your community, because oppression and contempt for orphans will cause them to hate the community and lead to its corruption. Verily, Allah is Great, Wise and prescribes for you only what is useful!
[#] 221. It is not forbidden to communicate with orphans, but it is forbidden to communicate with polytheists. A believer should not marry a polytheist until she believes. The wealth, beauty, and noble birth of an idolater should not attract the believer. A believing woman, being a slave, is better than a free idolater, possessing wealth and endowed with beauty. Do not marry your women to idolaters who do not believe in the Books of Heaven until they believe in Allah. Indeed, a slave who believes in Allah is better than an idolater, even though you like him. Idolaters incline their wives to wickedness and idolatry, they lead them straight to the flames of hell. Allah guides you on a straight path to Paradise and to forgiveness if you stay away from idolaters. Allah explains His decrees and guidance to people. Maybe they will come to their senses and be pious!
[#] 222. They ask you (O Muhammad!) about menstruation and the possibility of sexual intercourse with wives during this period. Tell them it's time for the wives to be sick. And don't touch them until they're bleeding and cleansed. When they are cleansed, enter them as the Lord commanded you. Whoever violates this instruction must seek forgiveness from Allah. Verily, Allah loves those who turn to Him in repentance and those who keep themselves pure.
[#] 223. Your wives are a field for you, where you cultivate your sowing of offspring. They are your field where you cultivate your feelings and love towards a goal, expecting pleasure and satisfaction. Go to your field whenever you wish, but first do something good for your souls. You are allowed to have normal sexual intercourse with women as Allah has commanded. Know that you will meet Him and answer to Him. Rejoice the believers with a great reward from Allah if they obey Him
[#] 224. You should not often pronounce the name of Allah in your oaths. This does not suit the great name of Allah. Stop frequently, without the need to swear by the name of Allah, then you will be more pious, God-fearing and will be able to reconcile people. You will be more respected, trusted and listened to your instructions. Indeed, Allah hears you and knows the degree of your faith and your intentions. Indeed, Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing!
[#] 225. Allah forgives you for some oaths. He does not punish you for idle talk in your vows made without malicious intent in your hearts, and does not punish you for vows that you take, being sure that something happened, but in fact you were mistaken. But Allah punishes for what is hidden in your hearts and for false speech, confirmed by an oath. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Tolerant of those who repent and in whose hearts there is no evil intention!
[#] 226. Those who swear to have no more conjugal relations with their wives must wait four months. And if at this time they again enter into marital relations, then the marriage continues to be valid, but they themselves must redeem their oaths. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving, Merciful and will accept their redemption!
[#] 227. If they do not return to them within this period, they will harm their wives. In this case, they need to decide on a divorce. Allah, the All-Knowing, hears their oaths, knows their condition and will reward them on the Day of Resurrection
[#] 228. A divorced woman must wait three periods (menstruation), without thinking about a new marriage, until she is sure that she is not pregnant. This waiting period (iddah) provides an opportunity to restore the marriage as well. Women are not allowed to hide what God created in their wombs if they believe in Allah and the Last Day. Their husbands in this case have the right to return their wives and restore marital relations if they want reconciliation. Wives have as many rights as duties, according to the accepted Sharia. But husbands have more rights to a degree. After all, they are responsible for the preservation of marriage and for children. Indeed, Allah is Almighty, Great and Wise!
[#] 229. Divorce is allowed twice. The marriage can be resumed if they can settle the misunderstandings and reconcile with each other in accordance with the laws of Allah. In such a case, the husband may return his wife during the Iddah or remarry her if he desires reconciliation, justice and good relations with her. Otherwise, you need to let it go in a decent way. You are not allowed to take anything from what you have given her, unless you both fear that you will not be able to fulfill the marriage duties established by Allah. And there will be no sin on both of you if the wife redeems herself in order to achieve a divorce. These are the ordinances of Allah, and do not break them. Those who violate the ordinances of Allah are unrighteous and treat themselves and society unjustly.
[#] 230. If a husband divorced his wife for the third time (after two previous divorces), then after that he is not allowed (according to Sharia law) to return her until she marries another. If after that the second husband gives her a divorce, then there is no sin in that they return to each other and enter into a new marriage. These are the ordinances of Allah, which He explains to people who believe and who have knowledge
[#] 231. When divorcing your wives, until the period appointed by them expires (a three-month wait, i.e. "iddah"), you can return them if they agree, and be fair with them henceforth, and live amicably or let them go in peace. Do not forcibly restrain them for selfish purposes to harm them. Whoever does this harms himself. He will lose happiness in family life, the trust of others in him and incur the wrath of Allah. Do not turn the instructions in the verses of Allah, giving you responsibility for the family, as a joke if you divorce wives without reason, but return them to harm them. Remember the mercy of Allah to you, His covenants about family life and what He sent down to you from Scripture and wisdom (as examples and parables), exhorting you with this; fear Allah and know that Allah knows everything about every thing. He judges you based on what you do and will reward you for it.
[#] 232. And when divorcing your wives, when the time fixed for them has expired, do not prevent them, O you who are in charge of them, from marrying their ex-husbands or anyone else, provided that both agree in a decent manner for a new marriage and a friendly life. This is an admonition to those who believe in Allah and the Hereafter. It promotes healthy and clean relationships (far from loose cohabitation). Indeed, Allah knows the interests of people and their secrets, but they do not know!
[#] 233. Mothers feed their children for two full years; this is for those who want to complete feeding for the sake of the baby. And on the one to whom the child was born - the duty to feed and clothe the mother and child in a decent manner in accordance with his income. And do not make the mother distressed for her child by giving less than what is due for expenses, and do not deprive her of the right to keep the child with her. And do not upset the father by demanding expenses on his child that exceed his ability. It is not necessary that the child be the cause of the grief of the father or mother. In the event of the death of the father or his incapacity for work, the heir of the child has the same obligations. If both (father and mother) wish to stop feeding the child before the completion of two years, meaning the benefit to the child, then there is no sin on them. If the father of the child wants to entrust the child to the nurse, there will be no sin on him, provided that he honestly gives the nurse what is due according to custom. And fear God, and know that Allah sees what you do and will reward you for it!
[#] 234. For those of you who leave this world and leave widowed wives, widows must wait four lunar months and ten days (to make sure that they are not in a position, and also as a sign of deep sadness for a husband). When this period expires, there will be no sin on the people responsible for them if the widows lead a lifestyle in accordance with Sharia (i.e. get married). Indeed, Allah is Aware of what you hide or do!
[#] 235. There is no sin over you, men, if you in a worthy way hint to a woman that you want to woo her when she is in her due date after the death of her husband, or hide this intention in your hearts. He allowed you to just hint, not openly talk about it. Do not enter into conversations with them secretly during this time fixed for them, but only talk decently with them. You can not enter into a marriage union until the appointed time has passed. Allah knows what you hide in your hearts. Fear the punishment of Allah and do not do what He has forbidden. Do not lose hope in the mercy of Allah. He is Forgiving and Meek, accepts repentance from His servants and forgives vices. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving, Meek, Tolerant and does not immediately punish the one who sinned
[#] 236. There is no sin over you (husbands) if you divorce those wives whom you have not touched and have not sealed the prenuptial gift agreement. Voluntarily give them a gift of money as a fair compensation for the grief caused to them, according to your capabilities and income. This gift is a boon for the virtuous
[#] 237. And if you divorce wives whom you have not yet touched, but have stipulated a premarital gift (kalym), the wives will be entitled to half of the conditional premarital gift from you, unless they themselves forgive (refuse) or forgive the one who in whose hand is the marriage contract. They are entitled to only half of the prenuptial gift, but they can get even more if the husband himself gives his wife the second half of the prenuptial gift. If you yield, it will be closer to godliness and God-fearing. Good in a good relationship, because it promotes good relationships and love between people. Allah sees what you do and will reward you for it.
[#] 238. Strictly observe the prayers and honor them, and especially honor the Middle Prayer "al-Asr" (Afternoon Prayer)! Try to be humble in your prayers and stand before Allah reverently
[#] 239. If you feel danger, then pray on foot or on horseback. When the danger has passed you and you are safe, pray as Allah taught you, remembering Him and thanking Him for teaching you what you did not know before and delivering you from danger
[#] 240. Those who leave this world and leave behind a wife, must bequeath to her an allotment necessary for one year without leaving home. No one has the right to kick the widow out of the house during this year. And if she herself wants to leave during this year, then there will be no sin on those who are responsible for her and will allow her to do what she wants, according to Sharia law. Listen to the instructions of Allah and do as He has commanded. Allah can punish the one who violates His laws. Indeed, Allah is Great, Wise and gives His instructions in your interests, and you may not understand this wisdom.
[#] 241. For divorced women, the right to receive an allotment (suitable provision) in a decent amount in accordance with the capabilities of the husband, as befits pious people. That's what the godly should do
[#] 242. With such interpretations and admonitions for the benefit of people, Allah explains His signs, assuming that you will act prudently
[#] 243. Pay attention (O Muhammad!) to the story of people who left their homes, fearing death - and there were thousands of them. They ran away from fighting for Allah. So Allah said to them: "Die! And be humiliated before the enemy." But some of them fought courageously, and therefore Allah brought their community back to life, so that they would understand that only Allah gives life, whom we should thank, but most of the people are ungrateful!
[#] 244. If you know that, being wary of death, you still will not escape it, then try in the way of Allah and sacrifice yourself for the sake of His teachings. Indeed, Allah hears what they say, fearing death, who do not participate in the battle, and what they say who fight in the way of Allah, and knows what everyone hides in his heart. He rewards good with good and evil with evil.
[#] 245. Funds are needed to fight for the straight path of Allah. Please donate your money to this. Give Allah a good loan, so that He will increase it many times over. He holds and gives to whomever he wants, in your interests. You will be returned to Him, and He will reward you for what you have done. Although the inheritance is a blessing from Allah, He called the one who gives money for the struggle in the path of Allah a creditor in order to encourage people to donate funds for this struggle and receive a double reward for this in this life and in the next life.
[#] 246. Pay attention to the strange request of the nobles of the children of Israel, who were after Musa, when they said to their prophet: "Give us a king who could gather us and lead us into battle in the way of Allah." He said to them, wanting to ascertain the seriousness of their intentions: "Perhaps you will not fight if you are ordered to fight?" They denied that such a thing could happen, saying: "Why should we not fight in the way of Allah, when we and our children were expelled from our dwellings?" When the battle was appointed, they refused, except for a few of them. Thus, they did not keep their word in relation to themselves, to their religion, to their prophet. Allah is aware of their deed and they will be rewarded for it. Allah knows the wicked!
[#] 247. Their prophet said to them: "Allah has sent you Talut as king." But the nobility was dissatisfied with the choice of Allah, saying: "How can he have power over us when we are more worthy of power than he? After all, he has neither a noble birth nor wealth." Their prophet replied that Allah made him king over them, because he has advantages in military affairs and knowledge, in government, and also in physical strength. Verily, power is in the hands of Allah, and He grants it to whom He wills, regardless of position and wealth. Allah is Omnipresent and Omniscient! He chooses what is in the interests of the people
[#] 248. Their prophet told them that the sign of his reign would be that he would return to them the ark of the Torah, in which would be the remnant of what the generation of Musa and Harun (Aaron) had left; the angels will bring it to you. Indeed, this sign will convince you, and you will recognize it if you truly believe in Allah!
[#] 249. When Talut set out with the troops on a campaign, he said: "Allah will test you with a river, near which your path will pass. Do not drink from it more than you can scoop with a handful: he who drinks more will not be among my warriors because he disobeyed Allah." But most of them drank from the river, unable to stand the test. Talut and with him those who assured, crossed the river. Seeing the numerous enemy troops, they said: "Today we will not be able to fight with Jalut (Goliath) - there are many of them, but we are few, we will run away from them!" But those who believed that they were about to meet Allah said, "Don't be afraid! How many times have small bands of believers defeated large bands of infidels with the help of Allah!" Be patient! Allah is always with the patient!
[#] 250. When the believers found themselves in front of Jalut and his army, they turned to Allah, asking Him to instill firmness in them, strengthen their hearts with patience and grant them victory over the infidels
[#] 251. They defeated their enemy with the help of Allah Almighty, and killed Daud (David) - one of the soldiers of Talut - Jalut, the leader of the infidels. And Allah granted Daud the kingdom after Talut, and endowed him with prophecy, wisdom, useful knowledge, and taught him what He pleased. Allah always helps those who do what improves life on earth, and not those who destroy it. If Allah had not sent His warriors against the villains in order to put an end to their evil deeds, and the villains to enmity with each other, then the earth would have been overwhelmed with trouble. Indeed, Allah is the Possessor of bounty for the inhabitants of the worlds - His slaves!
[#] 252. This story is from the signs of Allah. We reveal them to you (O Muhammad!) as a parable for you and evidence that you are a true messenger; and so that you know that We will help you to defeat your enemies, as We helped the previous messengers. Indeed, you are one of the messengers!
[#] 253. To all the messengers whom We mentioned, We bestowed different qualities and advantages and exalted them in different degrees. With some, as with Musa, Allah spoke directly, some Allah exalted a degree above others, like Muhammad, to whom the last Divine Scripture (in which Sharia is established) was sent down. Among the messengers was Isa, the son of Maryam, to whom We gave clear signs - the resurrection of the dead, the treatment of lepers. We strengthened him with the Holy Spirit (Jibril). These messengers called people to the straight path of Allah. And if the Lord had willed, people would not have been at enmity after the clear signs of the Messengers of Allah and would not have dispersed. But Allah did not want this, and they started strife and dispersed And among them were those who believed, and those who did not believe. Indeed, Allah is Wise and does what He wills.
[#] 254. O you who believe in Allah and the Day of Judgment! Of the benefits that Allah has given you, spend on good deeds and do this before the Day comes, on which neither friendship nor intercession from anyone but Allah will be accepted as protection for sins. The unbelievers will suffer because they did not answer the call to follow the straight, just path of Allah
[#] 255. Allah - there is no deity but Him, and only Him we must worship. Allah is Living, Existing and keeps the existence of all people. Neither drowsiness nor sleep embraces him; He alone owns what is in heaven and on earth; and He has no equal. Who will intercede for another before Him without His permission? Allah - glory to Him Almighty! - knows everything that was and what will be. No one can comprehend anything from His wisdom and knowledge, except what He permits. The throne of Allah, His knowledge and His power is vaster than the heavens and the earth, and His protection of them does not burden. Verily, He is the Most High, the One and the Great!
[#] 256. There is no coercion in religion. The straight path of truth is already clear by signs and differs from the path of error. Whoever believes in Allah and rejected the belief in idolatry and everything that deviates him from the Truth of Allah, he has already found a reliable support that will keep him so that he does not fall into the abyss of disbelief in Allah. Indeed, Allah hears everything you say and knows everything you do, and He will reward you for everything righteous that you do!
[#] 257. Allah is the Friend of the believers, their Supporter and Protector. He brings them out of the darkness of doubt and hesitation to the Light of truth, religion and peace. The patrons of the infidels are idols, shaitans and distributors of diabolical evil and delusion, which deviate them from the Light of faith, clear by signs, to the darkness of idolatry and unbelief. These are the inhabitants of the fire, they will abide in it forever!
[#] 258. Did you not know (O Muhammad!) the one who, like a blind man, did not see the signs of faith and argued with Ibrahim about the Lord and His Unity? Indeed, he was blinded and deceived by his power given to him by Allah, which turned him away from the Light of faith and sent him to the darkness of paganism. Ibrahim said to him: "Allah will grant us life and death." But he answered him that he also gives life and death when he decides to kill or pardon a person. Ibrahim said: "Behold, Allah commands the sun to rise from the east, you command him to rise from the west, if you are really the Lord, as you say!" The one who did not believe was thrown into confusion and stopped arguing with Ibrahim after the argument mentioned, which showed his ignorance and vanity. Allah does not guide the unbelievers in a righteous way!
[#] 259. Consider the meaning of this story: a passer-by of a destroyed village (Jerusalem) said: "How can Allah revive the inhabitants of this village after their death?" Then the Lord killed him for a hundred years, then revived him and asked him: "How long have you been here?" He replied, not feeling the time, that he had been here a day or part of a day. Then the Lord told him that he had been here for a long hundred years. Allah drew his attention to another sign: "Look at your food and your drink, they were not affected by spoilage; look at your donkey - a pile of bones. We did this so that you could see with your own eyes that We can revive the dead, and also so that make you a sign for the people. Look at the bones, how We collect them, then clothe them in flesh and resurrect." And then the power of Allah Almighty became clear to him, and he said: "I know that Allah is powerful over every thing, Almighty!"
[#] 260. And remember also the story of Ibrahim, when he asked Allah to show how He revives the dead. Allah asked Ibrahim: "Have you still not convinced?" Ibrahim replied that he had assured, but he wanted to see it with his own eyes, so that his heart would calm down more. Then Allah said: "Take four birds, slaughter them, cut them into pieces and place them on different hills, and then call them to you: they will quickly fly to you. Know, Ibrahim, that Allah is Almighty and Wise." If He desires something, He will only say: "Be!" - and it happens
[#] 261. Those who spend their property for the good in the way of Allah, obeying Him, for which they will be rewarded, are like a grain that is grown in good land and gives rise to seven ears, and in each ear a hundred of the same grains. This is Allah's reward for spending in our lives in the way of Allah. Allah doubles the reward for whomever He wills. Indeed, the goodness of Allah is great! He knows who is worthy of the reward and who is unworthy
[#] 262. Those who spend out of their wealth in the way of Allah and do not accompany their donations with boasting, reproaches and insults against those who are helped, there will be a great reward from their Lord. They will not be afraid, and they will not be in sorrow
[#] 263. A kind word that calms souls and does not humiliate the dignity of the poor before others is better than almsgiving, followed by reproach and resentment. Allah, the Glorious, the Most High, is rich, and does not need alms, followed by resentment and reproaches. Allah sends a good, clean provision to the poor, and He is not in a hurry to punish the one who does not give alms. Maybe they will follow the path of Allah and help the poor!
[#] 264. O believers! Do not lose the reward of Allah for your good deeds, accompanying them with reproaches or resentment and showing people that you are doing good deeds to those in need; Otherwise, you will be like those who spend their wealth for the sake of fame or praise from people, not believing in Allah and the Day of Judgment. The hypocrite who thus renders help is like a smooth rock covered with earth, upon which a downpour has fallen and washed away the earth, leaving the rock bare. Like a downpour washes away fertile land from a smooth rock, reproaches, resentment and hypocrisy erase the reward of Allah for such alms. Such deeds will be fruitless and there will be no reward for them. These are the qualities of the pagans. Deviate from these qualities. Allah does not guide the disbelievers on the straight path to good.
[#] 265. Those who spend out of their possessions, desiring to be pleasing to the Lord, striving to strengthen their faith, are like the owner of a garden on a fat hill, yielding fruit both with a little rain and when it rains heavily. If it rains, the garden will bear fruit twice, but even with a little rain, the garden will bear fruit, because the land is fertile. Sincere believers do not lose good deeds. Allah sees everything you do!
[#] 266. Would any of you want to have a garden full of palm trees and vines, in which streams would flow and in which would be all kinds of fruits; and old age would come while he had little children; and a hurricane would come and lightning would burn this garden, so necessary for the owner in old age? Such will be the one who gives alms and accompanies it with reproaches, resentment and hypocrisy, crossing out the good that he has done. This is how Allah makes His signs clear to you, so that you may understand!
[#] 267. O you believers! Spend the best of what you earn or what the earth gives you. Do not donate what you yourself would refuse if it were offered to you; and if they did, it would only be by closing their eyes. Know that Allah is rich and He does not need your insincere good deeds. He is worthy of glory for directing you to good deeds and piety.
[#] 268. Satan frightens you with poverty and tries to turn you away from good deeds, so that you do not spend your property on charitable deeds, but tempts you to be stingy, not to give alms and to commit obscene deeds. Allah promises you His forgiveness and mercy. He knows all your actions and deeds
[#] 269. Allah will grant wisdom to whom He wills, so that he is just in speech, deeds and deeds. Whoever has been granted wisdom, he has been granted a great blessing from Allah. Only intelligent people understand the signs of Allah and follow the signs and exhortations of the Qur'an, because they understand the truth well and do not succumb to bad passions
[#] 270. Whatever you spend on good deeds or on bad deeds, Allah knows and will reward you for it. Whatever vow you make to Allah, He knows it. Those infidels who spend property for vanity and not for the sake of Allah, or accompany their alms with reproaches and resentment, or spend on wicked deeds, they will have no intercessors on the Day of Judgment to protect them from torment in the Hereafter
[#] 271. If you openly give alms, but without hypocrisy, then it is good; and if you hide it by giving to the poor so that they do not hesitate, then it is better for you. Indeed, Allah forgives your sins for this. He knows what you hide in your hearts and what you announce. He knows your intentions in everything you do openly or covertly.
[#] 272. It is not your responsibility (O Muhammad!) to guide them in the righteous way or to force them to do good. Your responsibility is to convey to them the commandments of Allah, and He guides whomever He wants and opens their hearts to the true faith. Whatever you spend on good deeds and helping others - only for you. Allah will reward you for this if you only strive to fulfill your obligations to God and satisfy your believing hearts and your conscience. Whatever you donate to good causes, you will be fully rewarded for it, and you will not be offended!
[#] 273. Among the poor to be sacrificed, those who have fought in defense of the faith, and, as a result, suffering from physical disabilities that affect their ability to work, cannot work and earn money. They are proud and do not ask for anything. Their modesty prompts the ignorant to think that they live in abundance, but you can recognize by various signs how needy they are. Whatever you donate from your good, Allah knows about it, and you will be fully rewarded for it.
[#] 274. Those who donate from their possessions night and day, openly and secretly, will find their reward with the Lord. They are not afraid for their future and do not grieve for what has passed them from worldly goods. There is no fear over them, and they will not be sad!
[#] 275. Those who give money on interest will be deprived of peace of mind and peace in work, in deeds, etc., like the one who was driven into madness by the shaitan with his touch. They say that trade and usury are one and the same, since in both transactions there is an exchange and a profit, and therefore it should be allowed. Allah has declared what is permitted and what is forbidden - it is none of their business - and the resemblance they are talking about does not exist. Allah has permitted trade but prohibited usury. Whoever obeys the commandments of Allah and refrains from usury, that which was in the past before the prohibition of usury will be forgiven: his business belongs to Allah and His forgiveness. Those who repeat this abomination are the inhabitants of the fire, they will abide in it forever!
[#] 276. Allah forbids usury and destroys the gain from growth. He increases the property from which alms are given, and repays for it. Allah does not love those who insist on allowing what is forbidden by Him (like usury), does not love those who continue to grow. Indeed, Allah does not love the wicked!
[#] 277. Those who believed in Allah, listened to His exhortations, did good deeds, performed prayers, gave cleansing mercy (zakat) - they have a great reward from their Lord. There is no fear over them for the future, and they will not be sad in anything!
[#] 278. O you who believe, fear Allah and feel respect for Him in your hearts, and stop demanding from people what is left for you from growth, if you are true believers
[#] 279. If you do not leave usury, as Allah ordered you, then know that Allah and His Messenger will have war with you: a war of faith against unbelief; but if you repent, then only your capital will remain with you, no more and no less. Do not take more, regardless of the cause of the debt, because the increase you take represents an injustice to the people. And do not take less, so as not to be offended!
[#] 280. If your debtor is weighed down by poverty, then wait until his affairs improve. But to show him mercy by forgiving him a debt or part of it is better for you if you know and understand the Message of Allah, in which He teaches you to be generous, magnanimous, humane
[#] 281. Fear the Day when you all return to Allah, and each soul will receive in full for what she has gained for herself (from good or evil), and not one of them will be offended
[#] 282. O you who believe, if you borrow money or anything else, or buy something on credit, or enter into a business transaction between yourselves for a certain period, then write it down to protect your rights and avoid any misunderstandings later. The scribe who draws up a receipt (contract, contract, etc.) must do so in equity. The scribe should not refuse to write, but should thank Allah for teaching Him what he did not know. He who borrows, let him dictate, but he must fear God, his Lord, and take nothing away from what he borrows. If the one who borrows is of little intelligence and cannot properly assess the situation, or is in poor health, or is very young, or too old, or dumb and cannot dictate, or does not know how to draw up an official document, then let him dictate who is for him. replies, in accordance with the Sharia in justice. And call two men to bear witness. And if you do not find two men, then take as witnesses a man and two women whom you agree to take as witnesses. And if one goes astray in the testimony, then the other will help her remember. Witnesses, when called, must not refuse to bear witness. Do not neglect the receipt of the debt, large or small, indicating the due date. This is fair before God and is in accordance with Shariah, convenient for witnesses and for clearing up all sorts of misunderstandings. But if there are any personal transactions or transactions between you, and if it is cash trading, there will be no fault on you if you do not give receipts. In commercial transactions, in particular, in the sale of something, agreeing among themselves, take witnesses. There should be no violence over the witness and over the scribe. And if you cause them trouble, it will be disobedience to Allah. Fear Allah and feel in your hearts His Greatness and reverence for His exhortations. This will oblige you to adhere to justice. Allah shows you your rights and obligations to Him. He knows all your actions
[#] 283. If you are on the road and there is no scribe to write a receipt for the debt, then the creditor takes the pledge from the debtor as a guarantee. If a person entrusts something to another person, relying on his honesty, then at the first request, he must return the trusted one. He should think about Allah, keep strong faith in his heart and fear Allah, praying to Him that His goodness to him does not run out in this life and in the next life. Do not hide your testimony when you are called to testify. He who hides the evidence is a sinner, with an unclean heart. Verily, Allah knows what you do and will reward or punish you according to your deeds.
[#] 284. Know that everything in the heavens and on the earth belongs to Allah! You must understand that everything that you discover or hide in your souls, Allah the All-Knowing knows and will exact from you on the Day of Judgment. Then He will forgive whom He wills, and will punish whom He wills. Indeed, Allah Almighty is omnipotent over us!
[#] 285. Messenger Muhammad - may Allah bless him and welcome! - believed in what was sent down to him from his Creator, believers also believed in it. Each of them believes in Allah, His angels, His Scriptures and His messengers. They believe in all the messengers of Allah, treat everyone with respect, saying: "We do not distinguish between any of His messengers." They confirmed the faith that was strengthened in their hearts with their words: "We have heard and we obey! Thy forgiveness, O Lord, is upon us, and to Thee is our return!"
[#] 286. Allah does not impose on the soul anything other than what is possible for it. To each soul is what it has acquired: a reward for good and a punishment for evil. You who believe, turn to Allah and ask: "Our Lord! Do not charge us if we have forgotten or sinned. Our Lord! Do not place on us the burden that You placed on those who were before us! Our Lord! Do not "Lay on us what we cannot bear. Deliver us, forgive us and have mercy on us! You are our Lord, help us against the unbelieving people, so that Your Word may be exalted and Your religion spread!"
