سورة لقمان

Luqman
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Alif Lam Mim. (1) These are verses of the Book of Wisdom (2) A guidance and a mercy for the doers of goodness, (3) Those who keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate and they are certain of the hereafter. (4) These are on a guidance from their Lord, and these are they who are successful: (5) And of men is he who takes instead frivolous discourse to lead astray from Allah's path without knowledge, and to take it for a mockery; these shall have an abasing chastisement. (6) And when Our communications are recited to him, he turns back proudly, as if he had not heard them, as though in his ears were a heaviness, therefore announce to him a painful chastisement. (7) (As for) those who believe and do good, they shall surely have gardens of bliss, (8) Abiding in them; the promise of Allah; (a) true (promise), and He is the Mighty, the Wise. (9) He created the heavens without pillars as you see them, and put mountains upon the earth lest it might convulse with you, and He spread in it animals of every kind; and We sent down water from the cloud, then caused to grow therein (vegetation) of every noble kind. (10) This is Allah's creation, but show Me what those besides Him have created. Nay, the unjust are in manifest error (11)

سورة السجدة

As-Sajda
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Alif Lam Mim. (1) The revelation of the Book, there is no doubt in it, is from the Lord of the worlds. (2) Or do they say: He has forged it? Nay! it is the truth from your Lord that you may warn a people to whom no warner has come before you, that they may follow the right direction. (3) Allah is He Who created the heavens and the earth and what is between them in six periods, and He mounted the throne (of authority); you have not besides Him any guardian or any intercessor, will you not then mind? (4) He regulates the affair from the heaven to the earth; then shall it ascend to Him in a day the measure of which is a thousand years of what you count. (5) This is the Knower of the unseen and the seen, the Mighty the Merciful, (6) Who made good everything that He has created, and He began the creation of man from dust. (7) Then He made his progeny of an extract, of water held in light estimation. (8) Then He made him complete and breathed into him of His spirit, and made for you the ears and the eyes and the hearts; little is it that you give thanks. (9) And they say: What! when we have become lost in the earth, shall we then certainly be in a new creation? Nay! they are disbelievers in the meeting of their Lord. (10)Say: The angel of death who is given charge of you shall cause you to die, then to your Lord you shall be brought back. (11)

سورة الأحزاب

Al-Ahzaab
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
O Prophet! be careful of (your duty to) Allah and do not comply with (the wishes of) the unbelievers and the hypocrites; surely Allah is Knowing, Wise; (1) And follow what is revealed to you from your Lord; surely Allah is Aware of what you do; (2) And rely on Allah; and Allah is sufficient for a Protector. (3) Allah has not made for any man two hearts within him; nor has He made your wives whose backs you liken to the backs of your mothers as your mothers, nor has He made those whom you assert to be your sons your real sons; these are the words of your mouths; and Allah speaks the truth and He guides to the way. (4) Assert their relationship to their fathers; this is more equitable with Allah; but if you do not know their fathers, then they are your brethren in faith and your friends; and there is no blame on you concerning that in which you made a mistake, but (concerning) that which your hearts do purposely (blame may rest on you), and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. (5) The Prophet has a greater claim on the faithful than they have on themselves, and his wives are (as) their mothers; and the possessors of relationship have the better claim in the ordinance of Allah to inheritance, one with respect to another, than (other) believers, and (than) those who have fled (their homes), except that you do some good to your friends; this is written in the Book. (6)

سورة سبإ

Saba
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
(All) praise is due to Allah, Whose is what is in the heavens and what is in the earth, and to Him is due (all) praise in the hereafter; and He is the Wise, the Aware. (1) He knows that which goes down into the earth and that which comes out of it, and that which comes down from the heaven and that which goes up to it; and He is the Merciful, the Forgiving. (2) And those who disbelieve say: The hour shall not come upon us. Say: Yea! by my Lord, the Knower of the unseen, it shall certainly come upon you; not the weight of an atom becomes absent from Him, in the heavens or in the earth, and neither less than that nor greater, but (all) is in a clear book (3) That He may reward those who believe and do good; these it is for whom is forgiveness and an honorable sustenance. (4) And (as for) those who strive hard in opposing Our communications, these it is for whom is a painful chastisement of an evil kind. (5) And those to whom the knowledge has been given see that which has been revealed to you from your Lord, that is the truth, and it guides into the path of the Mighty, the Praised. (6) And those who disbelieve say: Shall we point out to you a man who informs you that when you are scattered the utmost scattering you shall then be most surely (raised) in (to) a new creation? (7)

سورة فاطر

Faatir
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
All praise is due to Allah, the Originator of the heavens and the earth, the Maker of the angels, messengers flying on wings, two, and three, and four; He increases in creation what He pleases; surely Allah has power over all things. (1) Whatever Allah grants to men of (His) mercy, there is none to withhold it, and what He withholds there is none to send it forth after that, and He is the Mighty, the Wise (2) O men! call to mind the favor of Allah on you; is there any creator besides Allah who gives you sustenance from the heaven and the earth? There is no god but He; whence are you then turned away? (3)

سورة يس

Yaseen
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Ya Seen. (1) I swear by the Quran full of wisdom (2) Most surely you are one of the messengers (3) On a right way. (4) A revelation of the Mighty, the Merciful. (5) That you may warn a people whose fathers were not warned, so they are heedless. (6) Certainly the word has proved true of most of them, so they do not believe. (7) Surely We have placed chains on their necks, and these reach up to their chins, so they have their heads raised aloft. (8) And We have made before them a barrier and a barrier behind them, then We have covered them over so that they do not see. (9) And it is alike to them whether you warn them or warn them not: they do not believe. (10)You can only warn him who follows the reminder and fears the Beneficent Allah in secret; so announce to him forgiveness and an honorable reward. (11) Surely We give life to the dead, and We write down what they have sent before and their footprints, and We have recorded everything in a clear writing. (12)

سورة الزمر

Az-Zumar
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
The revelation of the Book is from Allah, the Mighty, the Wise. (1) Surely We have revealed to you the Book with the truth, therefore serve Allah, being sincere to Him in obedience. (2) Now, surely, sincere obedience is due to Allah (alone) and (as for) those who take guardians besides Him, (saying), We do not serve them save that they may make us nearer to Allah, surely Allah will judge between them in that in which they differ; surely Allah does not guide him aright who is a liar, ungrateful. (3) If Allah desire to take a son to Himself, He will surely choose those He pleases from what He has created. Glory be to Him: He is Allah, the One, the Subduer (of all). (4)He has created the heavens and the earth with the truth; He makes the night cover the day and makes the day overtake the night, and He has made the sun and the moon subservient; each one runs on to an assigned term; now surely He is the Mighty, the great Forgiver. (5)

سورة غافر

Al-Ghaafir
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Ha Mim. (1) The revelation of the Book is from Allah, the Mighty, the Knowing, (2) The Forgiver of the faults and the Acceptor of repentance, Severe to punish, Lord of bounty; there is no god but He; to Him is the eventual coming. (3) None dispute concerning the communications of Allah but those who disbelieve, therefore let not their going to and fro in the cities deceive you. (4) The people of Nuh and the parties after them rejected (prophets) before them, and every nation purposed against their messenger to destroy him, and they disputed by means of the falsehood that they might thereby render null the truth, therefore I destroyed them; how was then My retribution! (5) And thus did the word of your Lord prove true against those who disbelieved that they are the inmates of the fire. (6) Those who bear the power and those around Him celebrate the praise of their Lord and believe in Him and ask protection for those who believe: Our Lord! Thou embracest all things in mercy and knowledge, therefore grant protection to those who turn (to Thee) and follow Thy way, and save them from the punishment of the hell: (7)

سورة فصلت

Fussilat
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Ha Mim! (1) A revelation from the Beneficent, the Merciful Allah: (2) A Book of which the verses are made plain, an Arabic Quran for a people who know: (3) A herald of good news and a warner, but most of them turn aside so they hear not. (4) And they say: Our hearts are under coverings from that to which you call us, and there is a heaviness in our ears, and a veil hangs between us and you, so work, we too are working. (5) Say: I am only a mortal like you; it is revealed to me that your Allah is one Allah, therefore follow the right way to Him and ask His forgiveness; and woe to the polytheists; (6) (To) those who do not give poor-rate and they are unbelievers in the hereafter. (7) (As for) those who believe and do good, they shall surely have a reward never to be cut off. (8) Say: What! do you indeed disbelieve in Him Who created the earth in two periods, and do you set up equals with Him? That is the Lord of the Worlds. (9) And He made in it mountains above its surface, and He blessed therein and made therein its foods, in four periods: alike for the seekers. (10) Then He directed Himself to the heaven and it is a vapor, so He said to it and to the earth: Come both, willingly or unwillingly. They both said: We come willingly. (11)

سورة الشورى

Ash-Shura
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Ha Mim. (1) Ain Sin Qaf. (2) Thus does Allah, the Mighty, the Wise, reveal to you, and (thus He revealed) to those before you. (3) His is what is in the heavens and what is in the earth, and He is the High, the Great. (4) The heavens may almost rend asunder from above them and the angels sing the praise of their Lord and ask forgiveness for those on earth; now surely Allah is the Forgiving, the Merciful. (5) And (as for) those who take guardians besides Him, Allah watches over them, and you have not charge over them. (6) And thus have We revealed to you an Arabic Quran, that you may warn the mother city and those around it, and that you may give warning of the day of gathering together wherein is no doubt; a party shall be in the garden and (another) party in the burning fire. (7) And if Allah had pleased He would surely have made them a single community, but He makes whom He pleases enter into His mercy, and the unjust it is that shall have no guardian or helper. (8) Or have they taken guardians besides Him? But Allah is the Guardian, and He gives life to the dead, and He has power over all things. (9) And in whatever thing you disagree, the judgment thereof is (in) Allah's (hand); that is Allah, my Lord, on Him do I rely and to Him do I turn time after time. (10)

سورة الزخرف

Az-Zukhruf
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Ha Mim. (1) I swear by the Book that makes things clear: (2) Surely We have made it an Arabic Quran that you may understand. (3) And surely it is in the original of the Book with Us, truly elevated, full of wisdom. (4) What! shall We then turn away the reminder from you altogether because you are an extravagant people? (5) And how many a prophet have We sent among the ancients. (6) And there came not to them a prophet but they mocked at him. (7) Then We destroyed those who were stronger than these in prowess, and the case of the ancients has gone before, (8) And if you should ask them, Who created the heavens and the earth? they would most certainly say: The Mighty, the Knowing One, has created them; (9) He Who made the earth a resting-place for you, and made in it ways for you that you may go aright; (10)

سورة الدخان

Ad-Dukhaan
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Ha Mim! (1) I swear by the Book that makes manifest (the truth). (2) Surely We revealed it on a blessed night surely We are ever warning-- (3) Therein every wise affair is made distinct, (4) A command from Us; surely We are the senders (of messengers), (5) A mercy from your Lord, surely He is the Hearing, the Knowing, (6) The Lord of the heavens and the earth and what is between them, if you would be sure. (7) There is no god but He; He gives life and causes death, your Lord and the Lord of your fathers of yore. (8) Nay, they are in doubt, they sport. (9)Therefore keep waiting for the day when the heaven shall bring an evident smoke, (10) That shall overtake men; this is a painful punishment. (11) Our Lord! remove from us the punishment; surely we are believers. (12) How shall they be reminded, and there came to them an Messenger making clear (the truth), (13) Yet they turned their backs on him and said: One taught (by others), a madman. (14) Surely We will remove the punishment a little, (but) you will surely return (to evil). (15) On the day when We will seize (them) with the most violent seizing; surely We will inflict retribution. (16) And certainly We tried before them the people of Firon, and there came to them a noble messenger, (17) Saying: Deliver to me the servants of Allah, surely I am a faithful messenger to you, (18)

سورة الأحقاف

Al-Ahqaf
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Ha Mim. (1) The revelation of the Book is from Allah, the Mighty, the Wise. (2) We did not create the heavens and the earth and what is between them two save with truth and (for) an appointed term; and those who disbelieve turn aside from what they are warned of. (3) Say: Have you considered what you call upon besides Allah? Show me what they have created of the earth, or have they a share in the heavens? Bring me a book before this or traces of knowledge, if you are truthful. (4) And who is in greater error than he who calls besides Allah upon those that will not answer him till the day of resurrection and they are heedless of their call? (5)

سورة الفتح

Al-Fath
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Surely We have given to you a clear victory (1) That Allah may forgive your community their past faults and those to follow and complete His favor to you and keep you on a right way, (2)And that Allah might help you with a mighty help. (3) He it is Who sent down tranquillity into the hearts of the believers that they might have more of faith added to their faith-- and Allah's are the hosts of the heavens and the earth, and Allah is Knowing, Wise-- (4) That He may cause the believing men and the believing women to enter gardens beneath which rivers flow to abide therein and remove from them their evil; and that is a grand achievement with Allah (5) And (that) He may punish the hypocritical men and the hypocritical women, and the polytheistic men and the polytheistic women, the entertainers of evil thoughts about Allah. On them is the evil turn, and Allah is wroth with them and has cursed them and prepared hell for them, and evil is the resort. (6) And Allah's are the hosts of the heavens and the earth; and Allah is Mighty, Wise. (7) Surely We have sent you as a witness and as a bearer of good news and as a warner, (8) That you may believe in Allah and His Messenger and may aid him and revere him; and (that) you may declare His glory, morning and evening. (9)

سورة الحجرات

Al-Hujuraat
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
O you who believe! be not forward in the presence of Allah and His Messenger, and be careful of (your duty to) Allah; surely Allah is Hearing, Knowing. (1) O you who believe! do not raise your voices above the voice of the Prophet, and do not speak loud to him as you speak loud to one another, lest your deeds became null while you do not perceive. (2) Surely those who lower their voices before Allah's Messenger are they whose hearts Allah has proved for guarding (against evil); they shall have forgiveness and a great reward. (3) (As for) those who call out to you from behind the private chambers, surely most of them do not understand. (4)

سورة ق

Qaaf
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Qaf. I swear by the glorious Quran (that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah) (1) Nay! they wonder that there has come to them a warner from among themselves, so the unbelievers say: This is a wonderful thing: (2) What! when we are dead and have become dust? That is afar (from probable) return. (3) We know indeed what the earth diminishes of them, and with Us is a writing that preserves. (4) Nay, they rejected the truth when it came to them, so they are (now) in a state of confusion. (5) Do they not then look up to heaven above them how We have made it and adorned it and it has no gaps? (6) And the earth, We have made it plain and cast in it mountains and We have made to grow therein of all beautiful kinds, (7) To give sight and as a reminder to every servant who turns frequently (to Allah). (8) And We send down from the cloud water abounding in good, then We cause to grow thereby gardens and the grain that is reaped, (9) And the tall palm-trees having spadices closely set one above another, (10) A sustenance for the servants, and We give life thereby to a dead land; thus is the rising. (11)(Others) before them rejected (prophets): the people of Nuh and the dwellers of Ar-Rass and Samood, (12) And Ad and Firon and Lut's brethren, (13) And the dwellers of the grove and the people of Tuba; all rejected the messengers, so My threat came to pass. (14) Were We then fatigued with the first creation? Yet are they in doubt with regard to a new creation. (15)

سورة الذاريات

Adh-Dhaariyat
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
I swear by the wind that scatters far and wide, (1) Then those clouds bearing the load (of minute things in space). (2) Then those (ships) that glide easily, (3) Then those (angels who) distribute blessings by Our command; (4) What you are threatened with is most surely true, (5) And the judgment must most surely come about. (6)

سورة الطور

At-Tur
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
I swear by the Mountain, (1) And the Book written (2) In an outstretched fine parchment, (3)And the House (Kaaba) that is visited, (4) And the elevated canopy (5) And the swollen sea (6)Most surely the punishment of your Lord will come to pass; (7) There shall be none to avert it; (8) On the day when the heaven shall move from side to side (9) And the mountains shall pass away passing away (altogether). (10) So woe on that day to those who reject (the truth), (11)Those who sport entering into vain discourses. (12) The day on which they shall be driven away to the fire of hell with violence. (13) This is the fire which you used to give the lie to. (14)

سورة الرحمن

Ar-Rahmaan
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
The Beneficent Allah, (1) Taught the Quran. (2) He created man, (3) Taught him the mode of expression. (4) The sun and the moon follow a reckoning. (5) And the herbs and the trees do prostrate (to Him). (6) And the heaven, He raised it high, and He made the balance (7) That you may not be inordinate in respect of the measure. (8) And keep up the balance with equity and do not make the measure deficient. (9) And the earth, He has set it for living creatures; (10)Therein is fruit and palms having sheathed clusters, (11) And the grain with (its) husk and fragrance. (12) Which then of the bounties of your Lord will you deny? (13) He created man from dry clay like earthen vessels, (14) And He created the jinn of a flame of fire. (15) Which then of the bounties of your Lord will you deny? (16)

سورة الواقعة

Al-Waaqia
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
When the great event comes to pass, (1) There is no belying its coming to pass-- (2) Abasing (one party), exalting (the other), (3) When the earth shall be shaken with a (severe) shaking, (4) And the mountains shall be made to crumble with (an awful) crumbling, (5) So that they shall be as scattered dust. (6) And you shall be three sorts. (7) Then (as to) the companions of the right hand; how happy are the companions of the right hand! (8) And (as to) the companions of the left hand; how wretched are the companions of the left hand! (9) And the foremost are the foremost, (10) These are they who are drawn nigh (to Allah), (11) In the gardens of bliss. (12) A numerous company from among the first, (13) And a few from among the latter. (14) On thrones decorated, (15) Reclining on them, facing one another. (16)

سورة الحديد

Al-Hadid
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Whatever is in the heavens and the earth declares the glory of Allah, and He is the Mighty, the Wise. (1) His is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth; He gives life and causes death; and He has power over all things. (2) He is the First and the Last and the Ascendant (over all) and the Knower of hidden things, and He is Cognizant of all things. (3)

سورة المجادلة

Al-Mujaadila
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Allah indeed knows the plea of her who pleads with you about her husband and complains to Allah, and Allah knows the contentions of both of you; surely Allah is Hearing, Seeing. (1) (As for) those of you who put away their wives by likening their backs to the backs of their mothers, they are not their mothers; their mothers are no others than those who gave them birth; and most surely they utter a hateful word and a falsehood and most surely Allah is Pardoning, Forgiving. (2) And (as for) those who put away their wives by likening their backs to the backs of their mothers then would recall what they said, they should free a captive before they touch each other; to that you are admonished (to conform); and Allah is Aware of what you do. (3) But whoever has not the means, let him fast for two months successively before they touch each other; then as for him who is not able, let him feed sixty needy ones; that is in order that you may have faith in Allah and His Messenger, and these are Allah's limits, and the unbelievers shall have a painful punishment. (4) Surely those who act in opposition to Allah and His Messenger shall be laid down prostrate as those before them were laid down prostrate; and indeed We have revealed clear communications, and the unbelievers shall have an abasing chastisement. (5) On the day when Allah will raise them up all together, then inform them of what they did: Allah has recorded it while they have forgotten it; and Allah is a witness of all things. (6)

سورة الحشر

Al-Hashr
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth declares the glory of Allah, and He is the Mighty, the Wise. (1) He it is Who caused those who disbelieved of the followers of the Book to go forth from their homes at the first banishment you did not think that they would go forth, while they were certain that their fortresses would defend them against Allah; but Allah came to them whence they did not expect, and cast terror into their hearts; they demolished their houses with their own hands and the hands of the believers; therefore take a lesson, O you who have eyes! (2) And had it not been that Allah had decreed for them the exile, He would certainly have punished them in this world, and in the hereafter they shall have chastisement of the fire. (3)

سورة الممتحنة

Al-Mumtahana
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
O you who believe! do not take My enemy and your enemy for friends: would you offer them love while they deny what has come to you of the truth, driving out the Messenger and yourselves because you believe in Allah, your Lord? If you go forth struggling hard in My path and seeking My pleasure, would you manifest love to them? And I know what you conceal and what you manifest; and whoever of you does this, he indeed has gone astray from the straight path. (1) If they find you, they will be your enemies, and will stretch forth towards you their hands and their tongues with evil, and they ardently desire that you may disbelieve. (2) Your relationship would not profit you, nor your children on the day of resurrection; He will decide between you; and Allah sees what you do. (3) Indeed, there is for you a good example in Ibrahim and those with him when they said to their people: Surely we are clear of you and of what you serve besides Allah; we declare ourselves to be clear of you, and enmity and hatred have appeared between us and you forever until you believe in Allah alone-- but not in what Ibrahim said to his father: I would certainly ask forgiveness for you, and I do not control for you aught from Allah-- Our Lord! on Thee do we rely, and to Thee do we turn, and to Thee is the eventual coming: (4) Our Lord! do not make us a trial for those who disbelieve, and forgive us, our Lord! surely Thou art the Mighty, the Wise. (5)

سورة الصف

As-Saff
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth declares the glory of Allah; and He is the Mighty, the Wise. (1) O you who believe! why do you say that which you do not do? (2) It is most hateful to Allah that you should say that which you do not do. (3) Surely Allah loves those who fight in His way in ranks as if they were a firm and compact wall. (4) And when Musa said to his people: O my people! why do you give me trouble? And you know indeed that I am Allah's messenger to you; but when they turned aside, Allah made their hearts turn aside, and Allah does not guide the transgressing people. (5)

سورة الجمعة

Al-Jumu'a
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth declares the glory of Allah, the King, the Holy, the Mighty, the Wise. (1) He it is Who raised among the inhabitants of Mecca an Messenger from among themselves, who recites to them His communications and purifies them, and teaches them the Book and the Wisdom, although they were before certainly in clear error, (2) And others from among them who have not yet joined them; and He is the Mighty, the Wise. (3) That is Allah's grace; He grants it to whom He pleases, and Allah is the Lord of mighty grace. (4) The likeness of those who were charged with the Taurat, then they did not observe it, is as the likeness of the ass bearing books, evil is the likeness of the people who reject the communications of Allah; and Allah does not guide the unjust people. (5) Say: O you who are Jews, if you think that you are the favorites of Allah to the exclusion of other people, then invoke death If you are truthful. (6) And they will never invoke it because of what their hands have sent before; and Allah is Cognizant of the unjust. (7) Say: (As for) the death from which you flee, that will surely overtake you, then you shall be sent back to the Knower of the unseen and the seen, and He will inform you of that which you did. (8)

سورة المنافقون

Al-Munaafiqoon
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
When the hypocrites come to you, they say: We bear witness that you are most surely Allah's Messenger; and Allah knows that you are most surely His Messenger, and Allah bears witness that the hypocrites are surely liars. (1) They make their oaths a shelter, and thus turn away from Allah's way; surely evil is that which they do. (2) That is because they believe, then disbelieve, so a seal is set upon their hearts so that they do not understand. (3) And when you see them, their persons will please you, and If they speak, you will listen to their speech; (they are) as if they were big pieces of wood clad with garments; they think every cry to be against them. They are the enemy, therefore beware of them; may Allah destroy them, whence are they turned back? (4)

سورة الطلاق

At-Talaaq
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
O Prophet! when you divorce women, divorce them for~ their prescribed time, and calculate the number of the days prescribed, and be careful of (your duty to) Allah, your Lord. Do not drive them out of their houses, nor should they themselves go forth, unless they commit an open indecency; and these are the limits of Allah, and whoever goes beyond the limits of Allah, he indeed does injustice to his own soul. You do not know that Allah may after that bring about reunion. (1) So when they have reached their prescribed time, then retain them with kindness or separate them with kindness, and call to witness two men of justice from among you, and give upright testimony for Allah. With that is admonished he who believes in Allah and the latter day; and whoever is careful of (his duty to) Allah, He will make for him an outlet, (2) And give him sustenance from whence he thinks not; and whoever trusts in Allah, He is sufficient for him; surely Allah attains His purpose; Allah indeed has appointed a measure for everything. (3) And (as for) those of your women who have despaired of menstruation, if you have a doubt, their prescribed time shall be three months, and of those too who have not had their courses; and (as for) the pregnant women, their prescribed time is that they lay down their burden; and whoever is careful of (his duty to) Allah He will make easy for him his affair. (4) That is the command of Allah which He has revealed to you, and whoever is careful of (his duty to) Allah, He will remove from him his evil and give him a big reward. (5)
