Three translations of the Koran (Al-Qur'an) side by side
Qur'an
005.084
Y: "What cause can we have not to believe in Allah and the truth which
has come to us, seeing that we long for our Lord to admit us to the
company of the righteous?"
P: How should we not believe in Allah and that which hath come unto us
of the Truth. And (how should we not) hope that our Lord will bring us
in along with righteous folk?
S: And what (reason) have we that we should not believe in Allah and in
the truth that has come to us, while we earnestly desire that our Lord
should cause us to enter with the good people?
005.085
Y: And for this their prayer hath Allah rewarded them with gardens, with
rivers flowing underneath,- their eternal home. Such is the recompense
of those who do good.
P: Allah hath rewarded them for that their saying - Gardens underneath
which rivers flow, wherein they will abide for ever. That is the reward
of the good.
S: Therefore Allah rewarded them on account of what they said, with
gardens in which rivers flow to abide in them; and this is the reward
of those who do good (to others).
005.086
Y: But those who reject Faith and belie our Signs,- they shall be
companions of Hell-fire.
P: But those who disbelieve and deny Our revelations, they are owners of
hell-fire.
S: And (as for) those who disbelieve and reject Our communications,
these are the companions of the flame.
005.087
Y: O ye who believe! make not unlawful the good things which Allah hath
made lawful for you, but commit no excess: for Allah loveth not those
given to excess.
P: O ye who believe! Forbid not the good things which Allah hath made
lawful for you, and transgress not, Lo! Allah loveth not transgressors.
S: O you who believe! do not forbid (yourselves) the good things which
Allah has made lawful for you and do not exceed the limits; surely
Allah does not love those who exceed the limits.
005.088
Y: Eat of the things which Allah hath provided for you, lawful and good;
but fear Allah, in Whom ye believe.
P: Eat of that which Allah hath bestowed on you as food lawful and good,
and keep your duty to Allah in Whom ye are believers.
S: And eat of the lawful and good (things) that Allah has given you, and
be careful of (your duty to) Allah, in Whom you believe.
005.089
Y: Allah will not call you to account for what is futile in your oaths,
but He will call you to account for your deliberate oaths: for
expiation, feed ten indigent persons, on a scale of the average for the
food of your families; or clothe them; or give a slave his freedom. If
that is beyond your means, fast for three days. That is the expiation
for the oaths ye have sworn. But keep to your oaths. Thus doth Allah
make clear to you His signs, that ye may be grateful.
