Sūra 22: Hajj, or the Pilgrimage

Section 8 (58-64)


58. Waallatheena hajaroo fee sabeeli Allahi thumma qutiloo aw matoo layarzuqannahumu Allahu rizqan hasanan wa-inna Allaha lahuwa khayru alrraziqeena

58. Those who leave their homes in the cause of Allah, and are then slain or die,--On them will Allah bestow verily a goodly Provision: Truly Allah is He Who bestows the best provision.


59. Layudkhilannahum mudkhalan yardawnahu wa-inna Allaha laAAaleemun haleemun

59. Verily He will admit them to a place with which they shall be well pleased: for Allah is All-Knowing, Most Forbearing.


60. Thalika waman AAaqaba bimithli ma AAooqiba bihi thumma bughiya AAalayhi layansurannahu Allahu inna Allaha laAAafuwwun ghafoorun

60. That (is so). And if one has retaliated to no greater extent than the injury he received, and is again set upon inordinately, Allah will help him: for Allah is One that blots out (sins) and forgives (again and again).


61. Thalika bi-anna Allaha yooliju allayla fee alnnahari wayooliju alnnahara fee allayli waanna Allaha sameeAAun baseerun

61. That is because Allah merges night into day, and He merges day into night, and verily it is Allah Who hears and sees (all things).


62. Thalika bi-anna Allaha huwa alhaqqu waanna ma yadAAoona min doonihi huwa albatilu waanna Allaha huwa alAAaliyyu alkabeeru

62. That is because Allah--He is the Reality; and those besides Him whom they invoke,--they are but vain Falsehood: verily Allah is He, Most High, Most Great.


63. Alam tara anna Allaha anzala mina alssama-i maan fatusbihu al-ardu mukhdarratan inna Allaha lateefun khabeerun

63. Seest thou not that Allah sends down rain from the sky, and forthwith the earth becomes clothed with green? for Allah is He Who understands the finest mysteries, and is well-acquainted (with them).


64. Lahu ma fee alssamawati wama fee al-ardi wa-inna Allaha lahuwa alghaniyyu alhameedu

64. To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and on earth: for verily Allah,--He is free of all wants, Worthy of all Praise.
