Ayat No. 211

سَلْ بَنِیْۤ اِسْرَآءِیْلَ كَمْ اٰتَیْنٰهُمْ مِّنْ اٰیَةٍۭ بَیِّنَةٍؕ-وَ مَنْ یُّبَدِّلْ نِعْمَةَ اللّٰهِ مِنْۢ بَعْدِ مَا جَآءَتْهُ فَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ شَدِیْدُ الْعِقَابِ(۲۱۱)

Translation

Ask the Children of Israel how many a sign of evidence We have given them. And whoever exchanges the favor of Allah [for disbelief] after it has come to him - then indeed, Allah is severe in penalty.

Ayat No. 212

زُیِّنَ لِلَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوا الْحَیٰوةُ الدُّنْیَا وَ یَسْخَرُوْنَ مِنَ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْاۘ-وَ الَّذِیْنَ اتَّقَوْا فَوْقَهُمْ یَوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ یَرْزُقُ مَنْ یَّشَآءُ بِغَیْرِ حِسَابٍ(۲۱۲)

Translation

Beautified for those who disbelieve is the life of this world, and they ridicule those who believe. But those who fear Allah are above them on the Day of Resurrection. And Allah gives provision to whom He wills without account.

Ayat No. 213

كَانَ النَّاسُ اُمَّةً وَّاحِدَةً- فَبَعَثَ اللّٰهُ النَّبِیّٖنَ مُبَشِّرِیْنَ وَ مُنْذِرِیْنَ۪-وَ اَنْزَلَ مَعَهُمُ الْكِتٰبَ بِالْحَقِّ لِیَحْكُمَ بَیْنَ النَّاسِ فِیْمَا اخْتَلَفُوْا فِیْهِؕ-وَ مَا اخْتَلَفَ فِیْهِ اِلَّا الَّذِیْنَ اُوْتُوْهُ مِنْۢ بَعْدِ مَا جَآءَتْهُمُ الْبَیِّنٰتُ بَغْیًۢا بَیْنَهُمْۚ-فَهَدَى اللّٰهُ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا لِمَا اخْتَلَفُوْا فِیْهِ مِنَ الْحَقِّ بِاِذْنِهٖؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ یَهْدِیْ مَنْ یَّشَآءُ اِلٰى صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِیْمٍ(۲۱۳)

Translation

Mankind was [of] one religion [before their deviation]; then Allah sent the prophets as bringers of good tidings and warners and sent down with them the Scripture in truth to judge between the people concerning that in which they differed. And none differed over the Scripture except those who were given it - after the clear proofs came to them - out of jealous animosity among themselves. And Allah guided those who believed to the truth concerning that over which they had differed, by His permission. And Allah guides whom He wills to a straight path.

Ayat No. 214

اَمْ حَسِبْتُمْ اَنْ تَدْخُلُوا الْجَنَّةَ وَ لَمَّا یَاْتِكُمْ مَّثَلُ الَّذِیْنَ خَلَوْا مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْؕ-مَسَّتْهُمُ الْبَاْسَآءُ وَ الضَّرَّآءُ وَ زُلْزِلُوْا حَتّٰى یَقُوْلَ الرَّسُوْلُ وَ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا مَعَهٗ مَتٰى نَصْرُ اللّٰهِؕ-اَلَاۤ اِنَّ نَصْرَ اللّٰهِ قَرِیْبٌ(۲۱۴)

Translation

Or do you think that you will enter Paradise while such [trial] has not yet come to you as came to those who passed on before you? They were touched by poverty and hardship and were shaken until [even their] messenger and those who believed with him said,"When is the help of Allah ?" Unquestionably, the help of Allah is near.

Ayat No. 215

یَسْــٴَـلُوْنَكَ مَا ذَا یُنْفِقُوْنَؕ-قُلْ مَاۤ اَنْفَقْتُمْ مِّنْ خَیْرٍ فَلِلْوَالِدَیْنِ وَ الْاَقْرَبِیْنَ وَ الْیَتٰمٰى وَ الْمَسٰكِیْنِ وَ ابْنِ السَّبِیْلِؕ-وَ مَا تَفْعَلُوْا مِنْ خَیْرٍ فَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ بِهٖ عَلِیْمٌ(۲۱۵)

Translation

They ask you, [O Muhammad], what they should spend. Say, "Whatever you spend of good is [to be] for parents and relatives and orphans and the needy and the traveler. And whatever you do of good - indeed, Allah is Knowing of it."

Ayat No. 216

كُتِبَ عَلَیْكُمُ الْقِتَالُ وَ هُوَ كُرْهٌ لَّكُمْۚ-وَ عَسٰۤى اَنْ تَكْرَهُوْا شَیْــٴًـا وَّ هُوَ خَیْرٌ لَّكُمْۚ-وَ عَسٰۤى اَنْ تُحِبُّوْا شَیْــٴًـا وَّ هُوَ شَرٌّ لَّكُمْؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ یَعْلَمُ وَ اَنْتُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُوْنَ۠(۲۱۶)

Translation

Fighting has been enjoined upon you while it is hateful to you. But perhaps you hate a thing and it is good for you; and perhaps you love a thing and it is bad for you. And Allah Knows, while you know not.
