Lord and your Lord; that we are responsible for our doings and yefor yours; and that We are sincere (in our faith) in Him?140. Or do ye say that Abraham, Isma'il Isaac, Jacob and the Tribes were Jews or Christians? Say: Do ye know better than Allah. Ah! who is moreunjust than those who conceal the testimony they have from Allah. but Allahis not unmindful of what ye do!)

145***, (145. Even if thou wert to bring to the people of the Book all theSigns (together), they would not follow Thy Qibla; nor art thou going to followtheir Qibla; nor indeed will they follow each other's Qibla.

Allah by His Grace Guided the believers tothe Truth, concerning that wherein they differed. For Allah guided whom Hewill to a path that is straight.)

And Allahheareth and knoweth all things.257. Allah is the Protector of those who have faith: from the depths of darkness He will lead them forth into light. Of those who reject faith thepatrons are the evil ones: from light they will lead them forth intothe depths of darkness. They will be companions of the fire, to dwelltherein (For ever).)

272***(272. It is not required of thee (O Messenger., to set them onthe right path, but Allah sets on the right path whom He pleaseth.Whatever of good ye give benefits your own souls, and ye shall only do soseeking the "Face" of Allah.

It is the wish of a section of the People of the Book to lead you astray.But they shall lead astray (Not you), but themselves, and they do notperceive!)

75***, (75. Among the People of the Book are some who, if entrusted with ahoard of gold, will (readily) pay it back; others, who, if entrusted with a singlesilver coin, will not repay it unless thou constantly stoodest demanding,because, they say, "there is no call on us (to keep faith) with these ignorant(Pagans)." but they tell a lie against Allah, and (well) they know it.)

###113-5***, (113. Not all of them are alike: Of the People of the Book area portion that stand (For the right): They rehearse the Signs of Allah all nightlong, and they prostrate themselves in adoration.114. They believe in Allah and the Last Day; they enjoin what is right, and

forbid what is wrong; and they hasten (in emulation) in (all) good works: They are in the ranks of the righteous.115. Of the good that they do, nothing will be rejected of them; for Allahknoweth well those that do right.)

To him who fighteth in the cause of Allah,- whetherhe is slain or gets victory - Soon shall We give him a reward of great (value).75. And why should ye not fight in the cause of Allah and of those who,being weak, are ill-treated (and oppressed)?- Men, women, and children,

whose cry is: "Our Lord! Rescue us from this town, whose people areoppressors; and raise for us from thee one who will protect; andraise for us from thee one who will help!")

77***, (77. Hast thou not turned Thy vision to those who were told to holdback their hands (from fight) but establish regular prayers and spend inregular charity? When (at length) the order for fighting was issued to them,behold! a section of them feared men as - or even more than - they shouldhave feared Allah. They said: "Our Lord! Why hast Thou ordered us tofight? Wouldst Thou not Grant us respite to our (natural) term, near(enough)?" Say: "Short is the enjoyment of this world: the Hereafter

ye should reject Faith, as they do, and thus be on the same footing (as they):But take not friends from their ranks until they flee in the way of Allah (Fromwhat is forbidden). But if they turn renegades, seize them and slaythem wherever ye find them; and (in any case) take no friends orhelpers from their ranks;-90. Except those who join a group between whom and you there is a treaty(of peace), or those who approach you with hearts restraining them fromfighting you as well as fighting their own people.

could have given them power over you, and they would have fought you:Therefore if they withdraw from you but fight you not, and (instead)send you (Guarantees of) peace, then Allah Hath opened no way foryou (to war against them).

91. Others you will find that wish to gain your confidence as well as that of their people: Every time they are sent back to temptation, they succumbthereto: if they withdraw not from you nor give you (guarantees) of peacebesides restraining their hands, seize them and slay them wherever ye getthem: In their case We have provided you with a clear argumentagainst them.)

174-5***(174. O mankind! verily there hath come to you a convincing proof from your Lord: For We have sent unto you a light (that is) manifest. 175. Then those who believe in Allah, and hold fast to Him,- soon will He admitthem to mercy and grace from Himself, and guide them to Himself by astraight way.)

(for food) are all four-footed animals, with the exceptions named: Butanimals of the chase are forbidden while ye are in the sacred precincts or inpilgrim garb: for Allah doth command according to His will and plan.2. O ye who believe! Violate not the sanctity of the symbols of Allah, nor of the sacred month, nor of the animals brought for sacrifice, nor the garlandsthat mark out such animals, nor the people resorting to the sacred house,seeking of the bounty and good pleasure of their Lord. But when ye are clearof the sacred precincts and of pilgrim garb, ye may hunt and let not thehatred of some people in (once) shutting you out of the Sacred Mosque leadyou to transgression (and hostility on your part). Help ye one another inrighteousness and piety, but help ye not one another in sin and rancour: fear

Allah. for Allah is strict in punishment.)

###5***, (5. This day are (all) things good and pure made lawful unto you. The food of the People of the Book is lawful unto you and yours is lawful untothem. (Lawful unto you in marriage) are (not only) chaste women who arebelievers, but chaste women among the People of the Book, revealed beforeyour time,- when ye give them their due dowers, and desire chastity, notlewdness, nor secret intrigues if any one rejects faith, fruitless is his work,and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (allspiritual good).)

##8***, (8. O ye who believe! stand out firmly for Allah, as witnesses to fairdealing, and let not the hatred of others to you make you swerve to wrongand depart from justice. Be just: that is next to piety: and fear Allah. ForAllah is well-acquainted with all that ye do.)

45***, (45. We ordained therein for them: "Life for life, eye for eye, nose ornose, ear for ear, tooth for tooth, and wounds equal for equal." But if any oneremits the retaliation by way of charity, it is an act of atonement for himself.And if any fail to judge by (the light of) what Allah hath revealed, they are(No better than) wrong-doers.)

##44-9***, (44. It was We who revealed the law (to Moses): therein wasguidance and light. By its standard have been judged the Jews, by theprophets who bowed (as in Islam) to Allah.s will, by the rabbis and thedoctors of law: for to them was entrusted the protection of Allah.s book, andthey were witnesses thereto: therefore fear not men, but fear me, and sell

not my signs for a miserable price. If any do fail to judge by (the light of)what Allah hath revealed, they are (no better than) Unbelievers.45. We ordained therein for them: "Life for life, eye for eye, nose or nose,ear for ear, tooth for tooth, and wounds equal for equal." But if any oneremits the retaliation by way of charity, it is an act of atonement for himself.And if any fail to judge by (the light of) what Allah hath revealed, they are(No better than) wrong-doers.46. And in their footsteps We sent Jesus the son of Mary, confirming the Lawthat had come before him: We sent him the Gospel: therein was guidanceand light, and confirmation of the Law that had come before him: a guidanceand an admonition to those who fear Allah.

47. Let the people of the Gospel judge by what Allah hath revealed therein.If any do fail to judge by (the light of) what Allah hath revealed, they are (nobetter than) those who rebel.48. To thee We sent the Scripture in truth, confirming the scripture thatcame before it, and guarding it in safety: so judge between them by whatAllah hath revealed, and follow not their vain desires, diverging from the Truth that hath come to thee. To each among you have we prescribed alaw and an open way. If Allah had so willed, He would have madeyou a single people, but (His plan is) to test you in what He hathgiven you: so strive as in a race in all virtues. The goal of you all is toAllah. it is He that will show you the truth of the matters in which ye dispute;

49. And this (He commands): Judge thou between them by what Allah hathrevealed, and follow not their vain desires, but beware of them lest theybeguile thee from any of that (teaching) which Allah hath sent down to thee.And if they turn away, be assured that for some of their crime it is Allah.spurpose to punish them. And truly most men are rebellious.)

#57-60***, (57. O ye who believe! take not for friends and protectors thosewho take your religion for a mockery or sport,- whether among those who

received the Scripture before you, or among those who reject Faith; but fearye Allah, if ye have faith (indeed).58. When ye proclaim your call to prayer they take it (but) as mockery andsport; that is because they are a people without understanding.59. Say: "O people of the Book! Do ye disapprove of us for no other reason

than that we believe in Allah, and the revelation that hath come to us andthat which came before (us), and (perhaps) that most of you are rebelliousand disobedient?"60. Say: "Shall I point out to you something much worse than this, (as judged) by the treatment it received from Allah. those who incurred thecurse of Allah and His wrath, those of whom some He transformed into apesand swine, those who worshipped evil;- these are (many times) worse inrank, and far more astray from the even path!")

64***, (64. The Jews say: "(Allah)'s hand is tied up." Be their hands tied up

and be they accursed for the (blasphemy) they utter. Nay, both His handsare widely outstretched: He giveth and spendeth (of His bounty) as Hepleaseth. But the revelation that cometh to thee from Allah increaseth inmost of them their obstinate rebellion and blasphemy. Amongst them wehave placed enmity and hatred till the Day of Judgment. Every time theykindle the fire of war, Allah doth extinguish it; but they (ever) strive to domischief on earth. And Allah loveth not those who do mischief.)

65-6***,(65. If only the People of the Book had believed and been righteous,We should indeed have blotted out their iniquities and admitted them togardens of bliss.

66. If only they had stood fast by the Law, the Gospel, and all the revelationthat was sent to them from their Lord, they would have enjoyed happinessfrom every side. There is from among them a party on the rightcourse: but many of them follow a course that is evil.)

68***, (68. Say: "O People of the Book! ye have no ground to standupon unless ye stand fast by the Law, the Gospel, and all therevelation that has come to you from your Lord." It is the revelationthat cometh to thee from thy Lord, that increaseth in most of them theirobstinate rebellion and blasphemy. But sorrow thou not over (these) peoplewithout Faith.)

#69-71***, (69. Those who believe (in the Qur'an), those who followthe Jewish (scriptures), and the Sabians and the Christians,- anywho believe in Allah and the Last Day, and work righteousness,- onthem shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.70. We took the covenant of the Children of Israel and sent them apostles,every time, there came to them an apostle with what they themselvesdesired not - some (of these) they called impostors, and some they (go so far

as to) slay.71. They thought there would be no trial (or punishment); so theybecame blind and deaf ; yet Allah (in mercy) turned to them; yet againmany of them became blind and deaf. But Allah sees well all that they do.)

104***(104. When it is said to them: "Come to what Allah hath revealed;come to the Messenger.: They say: "Enough for us are the ways we found ourfathers following." what! even though their fathers were void of knowledgeand guidance?)

Ch 625***, (25. Of them there are some who (pretend to) listen to thee; but Wehave thrown veils on their hearts, So they understand it not, and deafness intheir ears; if they saw every one of the signs, not they will believe in them; in

so much that when they come to thee, they (but) dispute with thee; theUnbelievers say: "These are nothing but tales of the ancients.")

108***, (108. Revile not ye those whom they call upon besides Allah, lestthey out of spite revile Allah in their ignorance. Thus have We made alluringto each people its own doings. In the end will they return to their Lord, andWe shall then tell them the truth of all that they did.)

Ch 7###52***, (52. For We had certainly sent unto them a Book, based onknowledge, which We explained in detail,- a guide and a mercy to all whobelieve.)

159***, (159. Of the people of Moses there is a section who guideand do justice in the light of truth.)

##172***, (172. When thy Lord drew forth from the Children of Adam - from

their loins - their descendants, and made them testify concerningthemselves, (saying): "Am I not your Lord (who cherishes and sustainsyou)?"- They said: "Yea! We do testify!" (This), lest ye should say on the Dayof Judgment: "Of this we were never mindful":)

Ch 819***,(19. (O Unbelievers!) if ye prayed for victory and judgment, now haththe judgment come to you: if ye desist (from wrong), it will be best foryou: if ye return (to the attack), so shall We. Not the least good will

your forces be to you even if they were multiplied: for verily Allah is withthose who believe!)

56-8***, (56. They are those with whom thou didst make a covenant, butthey break their covenant every time, and they have not the fear (of Allah..57. If ye gain the mastery over them in war, disperse, with them, those whofollow them, that they may remember.58. If thou fearest treachery from any group, throw back (their covenant) tothem, (so as to be) on equal terms: for Allah loveth not the treacherous.)

###61-2***,(61. But if the enemy incline towards peace, do thou(also) incline towards peace, and trust in Allah. for He is One thatheareth and knoweth (all things).62. Should they intend to deceive thee,- verily Allah sufficeth thee: He it is That hath strengthened thee with His aid and with (the company of) theBelievers;)

##72***, (72. Those who believed, and adopted exile, and fought for theFaith, with their property and their persons, in the cause of Allah, as well asthose who gave (them) asylum and aid,- these are (all) friends and

As to those who believed but came not into exile,ye owe no duty of protection to them until they come into exile; but if theyseek your aid in religion, it is your duty to help them, except against apeople with whom ye have a treaty of mutual alliance. And(remember) Allah seeth all that ye do.)

loveth the righteous.5. But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Paganswherever ye find them, an seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait forthem in every stratagem (of war); but if they repent, and establishregular prayers and practise regular charity, then open the way for

them: for Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.6. If one amongst the Pagans ask thee for asylum, grant it to him, sothat he may hear the word of Allah. and then escort him to where hecan be secure. That is because they are men without knowledge.7. How can there be a league, before Allah and His Messenger, with thePagans, except those with whom ye made a treaty near the sacredMosque? As long as these stand true to you, stand ye true to them:for Allah doth love the righteous.8. How (can there be such a league), seeing that if they get an advantageover you, they respect not in you the ties either of kinship or of covenant? With (fair words from) their mouths they entice you, but

their hearts are averse from you; and most of them are rebelliousand wicked.9. The Signs of Allah have they sold for a miserable price, and (many) havethey hindered from His way: evil indeed are the deeds they have done.10. In a Believer they respect not the ties either of kinship or of covenant! It is they who have transgressed all bounds.11. But (even so), if they repent, establish regular prayers, and practiseregular charity,- they are your brethren in Faith: (thus) do We explain theSigns in detail, for those who understand.12. But if they violate their oaths after their covenant, and tauntyou for your Faith,- fight ye the chiefs of Unfaith: for their oaths are

nothing to them: that thus they may be restrained.13. Will ye not fight people who violated their oaths, plotted toexpel the Messenger, and took the aggressive by being the first (toassault) you? Do ye fear them? Nay, it is Allah Whom ye should more justlyfear, if ye believe!)

##34-7***,(34. O ye who believe! there are indeed many among thepriests and anchorites, who in Falsehood devour the substance of men and hinder (them) from the way of Allah. And there are thosewho bury gold and silver and spend it not in the way of Allah.announce unto them a most grievous penalty-

35. On the Day when heat will be produced out of that (wealth) in the fire of Hell, and with it will be branded their foreheads, their flanks, and their backs- "This is the (treasure) which ye buried for yourselves: taste ye, then, the(treasures) ye buried!"36. The number of months in the sight of Allah is twelve (in a year)- soordained by Him the day He created the heavens and the earth; of them fourare sacred: that is the straight usage. So wrong not yourselves therein, andfight the Pagans all together as they fight you all together. But

know that Allah is with those who restrain themselves.37. Verily the transposing (of a prohibited month) is an addition to Unbelief:the Unbelievers are led to wrong thereby: for they make it lawful one year,and forbidden another year, in order to adjust the number of monthsforbidden by Allah and make such forbidden ones lawful. The evil of their

course seems pleasing to them. But Allah guideth not those who rejectFaith.)

55***(55. Let not their wealth nor their (following in) sons dazzle thee: inreality Allah.s plan is to punish them with these things in this life, and thattheir souls may perish in their (very) denial of Allah.)

Say: "If Allah had so willed, I should not have rehearsed it to you, norwould He have made it known to you. A whole life-time before this have Itarried amongst you: will ye not then understand?")

is it that brings out the living from the dead and the dead from the living?and who is it that rules and regulates all affairs?" They will soon say,"(Allah)". Say, "will ye not then show piety (to Him)?"32. Such is Allah, your real Cherisher and Sustainer: apart from truth, what(remains) but error? How then are ye turned away?33. Thus is the word of thy Lord proved true against those who rebel: Verilythey will not believe.34. Say: "Of your 'partners', can any originate creation and repeat it?" Say:"It is Allah Who originates creation and repeats it: then how are ye deludedaway (from the truth)?"35. Say: "Of your 'partners' is there any that can give any guidance towards

truth?" Say: "It is Allah Who gives guidance towards truth, is then He Whogives guidance to truth more worthy to be followed, or he who finds notguidance (himself) unless he is guided? what then is the matter with you?How judge ye?"36. But most of them follow nothing but fancy: truly fancy can be of no avail against truth. Verily Allah is well aware of all that they do.37. This Qur'an is not such as can be produced by other than Allah.on the contrary it is a confirmation of (revelations) that went before it, and a

39. Nay, they charge with falsehood that whose knowledge they cannotcompass, even before the elucidation thereof hath reached them: thus didthose before them make charges of falsehood: but see what was the end of those who did wrong!)

###77-82***, (77. Said Moses: "Say ye (this) about the truth when it hath(actually) reached you? Is sorcery (like) this? But sorcerers will not prosper."

78. They said: "Hast thou come to us to turn us away from the ways wefound our fathers following,- in order that thou and thy brother may havegreatness in the land? But not we shall believe in you!"79. Said Pharaoh: "Bring me every sorcerer well versed."80. When the sorcerers came, Moses said to them: "Throw ye what ye (wish)to throw!"81.

The worshippers of false gods say: "If Allah had so willed, weshould not have worshipped aught but Him - neither we nor our fathers,- norshould we have prescribed prohibitions other than His." So did those whowent before them. But what is the mission of apostles but to preachthe Clear Message?36.
