16. An-Nahl (The Bee, 128 verses)
16.101. When We put a Revelation in place of another Revelation (in the course of perfecting the Religion and completing Our favor upon you) – and God knows best what He sends down – they say: "You are but a forger!" No, rather, most of them do not know.
16.102. Say (to them, O Messenger): "(My Lord affirms): ‘The Spirit of Holiness brings it down in parts from your Lord with truth (embodying the truth and with nothing false in it), that it may confirm those who believe (strengthening them in their faith and adherence to God's way), and as guidance, and glad tidings for the Muslims (those who have submitted themselves wholly to God)'. "
16.103. Certainly, We know that they say, "It is but a human being that teaches him. " But the tongue of him to whom they falsely hint is outlandish, while this (Qur'ān) is in clear Arabic tongue.
16.104. Surely, those who do not believe in God's Revelations (and, therefore, persist in wrongdoing) – God does not guide them (to the way of true prosperity), and for them is a painful punishment.
16.105. Only those fabricate lies who do not believe in God's Revelations; and those are the liars.
16.106. Whoever disbelieves in God after having believed – not him who is under duress, while his heart is firm in and content with faith, but the one who willingly opens up his heart to unbelief – upon them falls God's anger (His condemnation of them), and for them is a mighty punishment.
16.107. That is because they have chosen the present, worldly life in preference to the Hereafter, and because God does not guide the people of unbelief (to the way of true prosperity and Paradise).
16.108. Those are they upon whose hearts, hearing, and eyes, God has set a seal, and those are they who are unmindful, heedless.
16.109. No doubt, in the Hereafter they will be the utter losers.
16.110. Yet surely your Lord turns with favor to those who emigrate after they have been subjected to persecutions (because of their faith) and, thereafter, exert themselves in God's cause, and endure with patience (whatever befalls them) – indeed, in return for such (good deeds), your Lord is All-Forgiving, All-Compassionate.
16.111. (Be ever mindful of) the Day when every soul will come pleading for itself, and every soul will be repaid in full for what it did, and none of them will be wronged.
16.112. God strikes a parable of a township which was secure and at ease, with its provision coming to it in abundance from all quarters. But it showed ingratitude to God (its people disbelieved, and attributed their apparent well-being to other than God, and so fell into the habit of making up partners with Him in belief and worship, and daily life); and so, God caused it to taste the garment of famine and fear because of what they habitually contrived.
16.113. For sure, a Messenger from among themselves had come to them, but they denied him; and, in consequence, the punishment seized them while they were doing wrong.
16.114. So (O people) partake as pure, lawful and wholesome of what God has provided you, and give thanks for His bounty, if it is indeed Him that you worship.
16.115. He has made unlawful to you only carrion, and blood, and the flesh of swine, and that (the animal) which is offered in the name of other than God. Yet whoever is constrained by dire necessity to eat of them, provided he does not covet (what is forbidden) and does not exceed (the bounds of necessity), surely God is All-Forgiving, All-Compassionate (thus no sin shall be on him).
16.116. And do not pronounce for what your tongues falsely describe: "This is lawful and this is forbidden," so that you fabricate falsehood in attribution to God. Surely those who fabricate falsehood in attribution to God do not prosper.
16.117. (Their lot is) a brief enjoyment (in this world), and theirs is a painful punishment (in the Hereafter).
16.118. And for those who are Jews, We made unlawful what We have already related to you. We have never wronged them, but they did habitually wrong themselves.
16.119. Then indeed your Lord is – to those who do evil in ignorance (as a result of failing to counter the prompting of the evil-commanding soul), and then repent (soon as they realize what they have done is wrong), and mend their ways and conduct – indeed your Lord is All-Forgiving, All-Compassionate (with special mercy toward His penitent servants).
16.120. Abraham was an exemplary leader, (whose self-dedication to the good of his community made him) as if a community, sincerely obedient to God as a man of pure faith (free from any stain of unbelief and hypocrisy), and he was not of those who associate partners with God –
16.121. Always thankful for His favors. He (God) chose him, and guided him to a straight path (to follow himself, and to guide others).
16.122. We granted him good in the world, and he is surely among the righteous in the Hereafter.
16.123. Thereafter, We have revealed to you (O Messenger): Follow the way of Abraham as one of pure faith (free from unbelief and hypocrisy), and he was never of those who associate partners with God.
16.124. The Sabbath was ordained only for those who differed about it (not for all the communities that were to follow the way of Abraham). Your Lord will assuredly judge between them on the Day of Resurrection concerning that on which they used to differ.
16.125. Call to the way of your Lord with wisdom and fair exhortation, and argue with them in the best way possible. Your Lord surely knows best who has gone astray from His way, and He knows best who are the rightly guided.
16.126. If you have to respond to any wrong, respond (only) to the measure of the wrong done to you; but if you endure patiently, it is indeed better for the patient.
16.127. Endure patiently; your endurance is only for God's sake and by His help; and do not grieve for them (because of their attitude toward your mission), nor be distressed because of what they scheme.
16.128. Surely God is with those who keep from disobedience to God in reverence for Him and piety, and those devoted to doing good, aware that God is seeing them.
