وَإِذۡ قُلۡتُمۡ یَـٰمُوسَىٰ لَن نَّصۡبِرَ عَلَىٰ طَعَامࣲ وَ ٰحِدࣲ فَٱدۡعُ لَنَا رَبَّكَ یُخۡرِجۡ لَنَا مِمَّا تُنۢبِتُ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ مِنۢ بَقۡلِهَا وَقِثَّاۤىِٕهَا وَفُومِهَا وَعَدَسِهَا وَبَصَلِهَاۖ قَالَ أَتَسۡتَبۡدِلُونَ ٱلَّذِی هُوَ أَدۡنَىٰ بِٱلَّذِی هُوَ خَیۡرٌۚ ٱهۡبِطُوا۟ مِصۡرࣰا فَإِنَّ لَكُم مَّا سَأَلۡتُمۡۗ وَضُرِبَتۡ عَلَیۡهِمُ ٱلذِّلَّةُ وَٱلۡمَسۡكَنَةُ وَبَاۤءُو بِغَضَبࣲ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِۗ ذَ ٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمۡ كَانُوا۟ یَكۡفُرُونَ بِءَایَـٰتِ ٱللَّهِ وَیَقۡتُلُونَ ٱلنَّبِیِّـۧنَ بِغَیۡرِ ٱلۡحَقِّۗ ذَ ٰلِكَ بِمَا عَصَوا۟ وَّكَانُوا۟ یَعۡتَدُونَ ۝٦١

And (remember) when you said: “Moses, we will never tolerate (and last) on only one (kind of) food, so call on your Lord on our behalf to bring out for us some of the earth produce such as herb, cucumber, garlic, lentil and onion.” He (Moses) said: “Do you want to exchange a good thing with something bad? Go down to a city and you will have what you are asking.” And humility and poverty were imposed on them, and they incurred God’s anger, because they were disbelieving in God’s signs and were killing the prophets unjustly. That is because they rebelled and were violating (the law).

Yet you are these who kill each other and drive some of you out of their homes, supporting (each other) against them by sin and enmity, and if they come to you as captives, you ask (or give) ransom for them while it was prohibited for you to drive them out. Do you believe in part of the book and disbelieve in part? So, punishment of anyone among you who does this is indeed disgrace in this life, and on the Resurrection Day they are sent back to the most severe punishment, and God is not unaware of what you do.

And they followed what the devils read (to people) in Solomon's kingdom. Solomon did not disbelieve but the devils disbelieved, teaching people witchcraft and what was sent down to the two angels of Babylon, Harut and Marut. But neither of the two would teach anyone before saying: “We are only a temptation, so do not disbelieve.” But they learned from them what causes separation between a man and his wife. And they did not harm anyone with it except by God’s permission. And they learned things that harmed them and had no benefit for them. And they certainly knew that whoever buys it (witchcraft), he will have no share in the Hereafter. And what they sold themselves for was certainly miserable, if they knew (the truth).

And like that We made you a moderate (and fair) group so that you will be witnesses over people, and the messenger will be a witness over you. And We only appointed the qiblah that you used to face, in order that We know those who follow the messenger from anyone who turns back on his heel (to his old ways). And that was indeed a great (test) except for those whom God guided. And God is not to waste your belief. Indeed, God is gentle and merciful to people.

There are signs in the creation of the skies and the earth, and the alternation (or the difference) of night and day, and the ships that sail on the sea for the benefit of people, and the rain that God sends down from the sky to bring the land back to life after its death, and scattering all kinds of living creatures in it, and the controlled changing of the winds and the clouds between the sky and the earth, for those who understand.

Goodness (or obedience) is not to turn your face toward the east or the west, but good is someone who believes in God, the Last Day, the angels, the book, the prophets, and he gives the wealth, in spite of his love for it, to the relatives (and close ones), orphans, the needy, travelers (in need), and those who ask, and to free slaves, and he performs mandatory prayer and gives to mandatory charity, and they fulfill their promise when they make a promise, and they persevere (and are patient) in hardship and loss and during the hard times (and the battle). They are those who tell the truth, and they are those who are cautious (of God).

Month of Ramadan is the one in which Quran, a guide for (all) the people and clear evidences of guidance and the criterion (of right and wrong), was sent down. So, any one of you who sees the month should fast in it. And anyone who is sick or traveling, then (he should fast) a number of other days. God wants ease for you, and He does not want difficulty for you, so that you complete the (mandated) number, and so that you magnify God for guiding you, and you may be thankful.

It is made lawful for you to approach your wives (to have sex with them) during the night of fasting (day). They are your clothes, and you are their clothes (to cover and complement each other). God knew that you betray yourselves, so He turned to you and excused you, so now you may have intercourse with them and look for what God mandated for you. And eat and drink until the white line becomes clear to you from the dark line at dawn, then complete the fast until the nightfall. And do not have intercourse with them while you are in retreat for devotion in the mosque. That is the limit set by God, so do not go near it. This is how God makes His signs clear to people, so they may be cautious (of God).

And complete the Hajj (the pilgrimage) and the Umrah (visit of Ka’aba) for God, but if you are held back, then send the offering (of sacrifice) that is easy for you. And do not shave your heads until the offering reaches its destination. If anyone among you is sick or he has an illness of his head, then a compensation of fasting, or giving to charity, or a sacrifice (is upon him). And when you are safe, then anyone who wishes to continue the Umrah on to the Hajj, then the offering (of sacrifice) that is easy for him. And anyone who cannot find (or afford) it, should fast three days during the Hajj and seven days on his return (from the Hajj), that is ten (days) in all. This is for anyone whose family does not reside near the Sacred Mosque. And be cautious of God and know that God is severe in punishment.

People were a single community, then God sent the prophets, givers of good news and warners, and He sent down the book with them in truth, to judge between people in what they disagreed about. And only those who were given it (the book) disagreed about it, after clear evidences had come to them, because of envy among them. So, God by His permission guided those who believed regarding what they disagreed about of the truth. God guides whom He wants to a straight path.

They ask you about fighting in the prohibited month. Say: “Fighting in it is a great (sin), but preventing from God’s way and disbelieving Him and (preventing from) the Sacred Mosque and driving out its people from there are greater (sins) in God’s view.” Turmoil (and disorder) is worse than murder. They will not stop fighting you until they turn you back from your religion, if they can. And anyone of you who turns back from his religion and dies while he is a disbeliever, then their works become useless in this world and the Hereafter, and they are inhabitants of the fire remaining in it forever.

Do not marry the idolater women until they believe, and (marrying) a believing slave woman is better than an idolater, even if she impresses you. And do not give (your women) in marriage to the idolater men until they believe, and (marrying) a believing slave man is better than an idolater, even if he impresses you. They invite into the fire, while God invites to the garden and forgiveness, by His permission. And He makes His signs clear for people, that they may take notice.

Divorced women should wait for three monthly periods, and they are prohibited from hiding what God has created in their wombs if they believe in God and the Last Day. And their husbands have more rights to take them back during this period, if they want to reconcile. And they have appropriate rights similar to their responsibilities, but men are a rank above them (in rights and responsibilities). God is powerful and wise.

Divorce is (permitted) twice, then either keeping in fairness, or leaving in kindness. And it is not allowed for you that you take back anything from what you gave them, unless they are (both) afraid of (violating) the limits set by God. And if you are afraid of (violating) the limits set by God, then there is no blame on either of them for what she pays to free herself with it (for her divorce). These are the limits set by God, so do not violate them, and whoever violates the limits set by God, then they are wrongdoers.

And when you divorce women and they reach (the end of) their (waiting) period, then either keep them in kindness or let them go in kindness, and do not keep them to harm them so that you violate (God's limits), and anyone who does this has wronged himself. And do not take God’s signs as a joke, and remember God’s favor upon you, and what he sent down to you from the book and wisdom to advise you with it. Be cautious of God and know that God knows everything.

Mothers may nurse their children for two full years, for anyone who wants to complete the nursing. And the father is responsible for her appropriate food and clothing. No one is tasked beyond its capability. A mother should not sustain any loss because of her child, nor should a father because of his child, and the same (responsibility as the father) is on the heir. If they decide to stop (the nursing) after their mutual agreement and consultation, then there is no blame on either of them. And if you decide to ask for a nursing mother for your children, then there is no blame on you if you properly pay what you offered. Be cautious of God and know that God sees everything you do.

There is no blame on you for what you hint with it for proposing to the women or if you keep it to yourselves. God knows that you are going to remember them. But do not make secret promises to them unless you speak properly. And do not decide on marriage tie before the prescribed term reaches its end. And know that God knows what is in your minds, so beware of Him, and know that God is forgiving and patient.

Have you not seen that after Moses, the leaders of children of Israel told their prophet: “Appoint a king for us, and we will fight in God's way.” He said: “Is it possible that you will not fight if you are prescribed to fight?” They said: “Why should we not fight in God's way while we are driven out of our homes and from our children?” But when the fight was prescribed to them, they turned away (refused) except a few of them. God knows the wrongdoers.

And their prophet told them: “God has appointed Talut (Saul) as a king for you.” They said: “How can he be the king over us when we are more deserved to be king than him and he is not given plenty (of wealth)?” He (their prophet) said: “God has chosen him over you and greatly increased his knowledge and body (and stature), and God gives His kingdom (and authority) to whomever He wants. God is bountiful and knowledgeable.”

So, when Talut (Saul) set out with the troops, he said: “God tests you with a river, anyone who drinks from it is not with me, and anyone who does not taste it or anyone who scoops a handful of it then he is indeed with me.” So, they all drank from it except a few of them. Then when he and those who believed with him crossed it (the river), they said: “We do not have the strength to face Goliath and his troops today.” Those who thought that they meet God said: “Many small forces overcome large forces by God’s permission, and God is with those who persevere (and the patient ones).”

These are the messengers, We preferred some of them over the others, God spoke to one and He raised some of them in ranks. And We gave Jesus, son of Mary, clear evidences and We supported him with the Holy Spirit. And if God wanted, those after them would not have fought after clear evidences came to them. But they disagreed, so some of them believed and some of them disbelieved. And if God wanted, they would not have fought, but God does what He wants.

God, there is no god except Him, the living and the eternal, neither does He take a nap nor He sleeps. Everything in the skies and on the earth belongs to Him. Who can mediate before Him except with His permission? He knows what is in front of them and what is behind them, while they do not comprehend anything of His knowledge except what He wants. His throne extends over the skies and the earth, and maintaining them does not bother Him. He is the superior, the great.

أَوۡ كَٱلَّذِی مَرَّ عَلَىٰ قَرۡیَةࣲ وَهِیَ خَاوِیَةٌ عَلَىٰ عُرُوشِهَا قَالَ أَنَّىٰ یُحۡیِۦ هَـٰذِهِ ٱللَّهُ بَعۡدَ مَوۡتِهَاۖ فَأَمَاتَهُ ٱللَّهُ مِا۟ئَةَ عَامࣲ ثُمَّ بَعَثَهُۥۖ قَالَ كَمۡ لَبِثۡتَۖ قَالَ لَبِثۡتُ یَوۡمًا أَوۡ بَعۡضَ یَوۡمࣲۖ قَالَ بَل لَّبِثۡتَ مِا۟ئَةَ عَامࣲ فَٱنظُرۡ إِلَىٰ طَعَامِكَ وَشَرَابِكَ لَمۡ یَتَسَنَّهۡۖ وَٱنظُرۡ إِلَىٰ حِمَارِكَ وَلِنَجۡعَلَكَ ءَایَةࣰ لِّلنَّاسِۖ وَٱنظُرۡ إِلَى ٱلۡعِظَامِ كَیۡفَ نُنشِزُهَا ثُمَّ نَكۡسُوهَا لَحۡمࣰاۚ فَلَمَّا تَبَیَّنَ لَهُۥ قَالَ أَعۡلَمُ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَیۡءࣲ قَدِیرࣱ ۝٢٥٩

Or like the one who passed by a town where it had fallen down over its roofs (roofs were collapsed), he said: “How does God bring this (town) back to life after its death?” Then God made him die for a hundred years, then He raised him up (and brought him back to life) and said: “How long did you remain (dead)?” He said: “I remained a day or part of a day.” He said: “No, you remained for a hundred years, look at your food and drink, it did not age (or spoil), and look at your donkey (that is turned to bones), and We make you a sign (of resurrection) for the people, and look at the bones (of your donkey) how We put them back together and We cover it with flesh.” So, when it was clear to him, he said: “I know that God is capable of everything.”

یَـٰۤأَیُّهَا ٱلَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَا تُبۡطِلُوا۟ صَدَقَـٰتِكُم بِٱلۡمَنِّ وَٱلۡأَذَىٰ كَٱلَّذِی یُنفِقُ مَالَهُۥ رِئَاۤءَ ٱلنَّاسِ وَلَا یُؤۡمِنُ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلۡیَوۡمِ ٱلۡءَاخِرِۖ فَمَثَلُهُۥ كَمَثَلِ صَفۡوَانٍ عَلَیۡهِ تُرَابࣱ فَأَصَابَهُۥ وَابِلࣱ فَتَرَكَهُۥ صَلۡدࣰاۖ لَّا یَقۡدِرُونَ عَلَىٰ شَیۡءࣲ مِّمَّا كَسَبُوا۟ۗ وَٱللَّهُ لَا یَهۡدِی ٱلۡقَوۡمَ ٱلۡكَـٰفِرِینَ ۝٢٦٤

You who believe, do not make your charities worthless by bragging and insult (and annoyance), like someone who spends his wealth to be seen by people while he does not believe in God and the Last Day. His example is like a smooth rock with dust on it, then a heavy rain falls on it and leaves it bare (with no dust on it), they are not able (to benefit) from anything that they have done. And God does not guide the disbelieving people.

ٱلَّذِینَ یَأۡكُلُونَ ٱلرِّبَوٰا۟ لَا یَقُومُونَ إِلَّا كَمَا یَقُومُ ٱلَّذِی یَتَخَبَّطُهُ ٱلشَّیۡطَـٰنُ مِنَ ٱلۡمَسِّۚ ذَ ٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمۡ قَالُوۤا۟ إِنَّمَا ٱلۡبَیۡعُ مِثۡلُ ٱلرِّبَوٰا۟ۗ وَأَحَلَّ ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡبَیۡعَ وَحَرَّمَ ٱلرِّبَوٰا۟ۚ فَمَن جَاۤءَهُۥ مَوۡعِظَةࣱ مِّن رَّبِّهِۦ فَٱنتَهَىٰ فَلَهُۥ مَا سَلَفَ وَأَمۡرُهُۥۤ إِلَى ٱللَّهِۖ وَمَنۡ عَادَ فَأُو۟لَـٰۤىِٕكَ أَصۡحَـٰبُ ٱلنَّارِۖ هُمۡ فِیهَا خَـٰلِدُونَ ۝٢٧٥
Bakhtiari Nejad
Those who consume usury stand/rise (on the Resurrection Day) like someone who is driven to madness by Satan’s touch. This is because they said: “Trading is like usury,” while God permitted trading and prohibited usury. So, anyone whom advice from his Lord came to him and he stopped, then his past (profit) is his and his case is with God, and anyone who goes back (to usury), they will be inhabitants of the fire remaining in it forever.

یَـٰۤأَیُّهَا ٱلَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوۤا۟ إِذَا تَدَایَنتُم بِدَیۡنٍ إِلَىٰۤ أَجَلࣲ مُّسَمࣰّى فَٱكۡتُبُوهُۚ وَلۡیَكۡتُب بَّیۡنَكُمۡ كَاتِبُۢ بِٱلۡعَدۡلِۚ وَلَا یَأۡبَ كَاتِبٌ أَن یَكۡتُبَ كَمَا عَلَّمَهُ ٱللَّهُۚ فَلۡیَكۡتُبۡ وَلۡیُمۡلِلِ ٱلَّذِی عَلَیۡهِ ٱلۡحَقُّ وَلۡیَتَّقِ ٱللَّهَ رَبَّهُۥ وَلَا یَبۡخَسۡ مِنۡهُ شَیۡءࣰاۚ فَإِن كَانَ ٱلَّذِی عَلَیۡهِ ٱلۡحَقُّ سَفِیهًا أَوۡ ضَعِیفًا أَوۡ لَا یَسۡتَطِیعُ أَن یُمِلَّ هُوَ فَلۡیُمۡلِلۡ وَلِیُّهُۥ بِٱلۡعَدۡلِۚ وَٱسۡتَشۡهِدُوا۟ شَهِیدَیۡنِ مِن رِّجَالِكُمۡۖ فَإِن لَّمۡ یَكُونَا رَجُلَیۡنِ فَرَجُلࣱ وَٱمۡرَأَتَانِ مِمَّن تَرۡضَوۡنَ مِنَ ٱلشُّهَدَاۤءِ أَن تَضِلَّ إِحۡدَىٰهُمَا فَتُذَكِّرَ إِحۡدَىٰهُمَا ٱلۡأُخۡرَىٰۚ وَلَا یَأۡبَ ٱلشُّهَدَاۤءُ إِذَا مَا دُعُوا۟ۚ وَلَا تَسۡءَمُوۤا۟ أَن تَكۡتُبُوهُ صَغِیرًا أَوۡ كَبِیرًا إِلَىٰۤ أَجَلِهِۦۚ ذَ ٰلِكُمۡ أَقۡسَطُ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ وَأَقۡوَمُ لِلشَّهَـٰدَةِ وَأَدۡنَىٰۤ أَلَّا تَرۡتَابُوۤا۟ إِلَّاۤ أَن تَكُونَ تِجَـٰرَةً حَاضِرَةࣰ تُدِیرُونَهَا بَیۡنَكُمۡ فَلَیۡسَ عَلَیۡكُمۡ جُنَاحٌ أَلَّا تَكۡتُبُوهَاۗ وَأَشۡهِدُوۤا۟ إِذَا تَبَایَعۡتُمۡۚ وَلَا یُضَاۤرَّ كَاتِبࣱ وَلَا شَهِیدࣱۚ وَإِن تَفۡعَلُوا۟ فَإِنَّهُۥ فُسُوقُۢ بِكُمۡۗ وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَۖ وَیُعَلِّمُكُمُ ٱللَّهُۗ وَٱللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَیۡءٍ عَلِیمࣱ ۝٢٨٢

You who believe, when you borrow from each other for a limited period, then write it (to have a record). And let a writer write it (the loan details) between you in justice. A writer should not refuse to write as God has taught him. So, he shall write, and the borrower should dictate, and he should be cautious of God, his Lord, and should not reduce (or eliminate) anything from it. And if the borrower is retarded or is a child or is unable to dictate, then his guardian should dictate it fairly. And ask two witnesses from among your men to witness, and if there are not two men, then one man and two women from the witnesses who are acceptable to you, so if one of the two makes a mistake (or forgets) then the other one of the two may remind the other one. And the witnesses should not refuse (to testify) if they are called upon. And they should not be reluctant to write it no matter how small or large, along with its term. This is fairer in God’s view, and more appropriate for the testimony, and closer to not having doubts. Except if it is a face-to-face transaction that (the actual merchandise/money) changes hands between you, then there will be no blame on you if you do not write it. And take witnesses when you trade. And the writer and the witness should not be harmed, and if you do that, it is indeed disobedience on your part. And be cautious of God, and God teaches you (what to do). God knows everything.

God does not task anyone beyond its capability, whatever (good) it does is for it, and whatever (bad) it does is against it. Our Lord, do not hold it against us if we forget or make a mistake. Our Lord, do not impose a burden on us as you imposed on those before us. Our Lord, do not impose on us what we cannot bear and excuse us and forgive us and have mercy on us, You are our protector (and Master), so help us against the disbelieving people.
