Translation By Abdullah Yusuf Ali

d      Sura # 98                 e 

 

Al-Bayyinah / The Clear Evidence

 

In the name of Allah Most Gracious Most Merciful.

1

Those who reject (Truth) among the People of the Book and among the Polytheists were not going to depart (from their ways) until there should come to them Clear Evidence

2

An apostle from Allah rehearsing scriptures kept pure and holy:

3

Wherein are laws (or decrees) right and straight.

4

Nor did the people of the Book make schisms until after there came to them Clear Evidence.

5

And they have been commanded no more than this: to worship Allah offering Him sincere devotion being True (in faith); to establish regular Prayer; and to practice regular Charity; and that is the Religion Right and Straight.

6

Those who reject (Truth) among the People of the Book and among the Polytheists will be in hell-fire to dwell therein (for aye). They are the worst of creatures.

7

Those who have faith and do righteous deeds they are the best of creatures.

8

Their reward is with Allah: Gardens of Eternity Beneath which rivers flow; They will dwell therein for ever; Allah well pleased with them and they with Him: all this for such as fear their Lord and Cherisher
